J» SYNDICATE Jon perhaps looks sceptical of something or somebody in his picture, but this 6-year-old is not normally suspicious. In fact, you are looking at a friendly, sociable youngster who likes people and gets on well with his classmates. He is particularly good and patient with younger children. Jon is French Canadian in descent and French is his main language. However, he speaks English too, so he can go to an English home if a French family is not available for hig. Strong. healthy and sturdily built, Jon has brown eyes, dark hair and fair skin. He wears glasses for astigmatism. Jon is active and loves roligh games, especially wrestling. He likes camping and can hardly be kept out of the water. Coloring, cutting and pasting are all fun for Jon, and of course he is fascinated by small cars. Because he is a lively fellow who plays hard, his toys don't last very long. a Though Jon is happy in kindergarten, it seems unlikely that he will shine academically. He needs a family who will appreciate a pleasant. helpful. co-operative son and will not be demanding about academic achievement. To inquire about adopting Jon, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2.
