James Whitcomb Riley wrote about ‘Uttte Orphan Annie" the hbmeless girl hired out for housework who typified the orphitn ed girl of the early.lMCs. NOT ENOUGH NOW Now then, aren't enough babies to satisfy the demands of childless couples. We still have 1,640 insti tutions in the United States to care for “dependent and neglected” children. But ■ less than 5 per oent . of these children are “full or phans” eligible for adoption, the: Children's Bureau reports. We have become an adoption minded country. The number of children adopted each year has doubled in the past .IS years. There has been an almost corresponding increase in babies bom out of wedlock. In 1950, the last year for which statistics, are available, 141,600 babies were born. out of wedlock, 42 per cent of them to teenage girls. Unwed girls 17 or under gave birth to 30,000 babies and girls under 15 to 3,200. Those children are the major source for adoptions. Yet less, than half of such babies adopted by non relatives are placed in homes through legal agencies. Others reach their future parents, through’ individual bargaining. . MONEY CONSIDERATION Money is the main consideration In orgap.iud adoption rings.- In other cases, adoptive parents pay only the doctor and hospital bill for the mother, and the person art ranging the baby exchange makes no profit. Such cases aliholt never are prosecuted, unless the natural mother sues for the return of her baby. Only If a mother knows the couple and personally gives them her child for adoption can It be done legally without agency help. The "fiction” that the mother does know the couple, according to one lawyer, provides one of the major loopholes for illegal adoptions. Operators of big time black market rings usually , have no mor: than, a telephone contact with the adoptive parents until the actual exchange of money and baby. If certain features of the baby’s back-, ground, such as religion or mental capacities of the parents, seem un suitable, such operators often, change the “facts” to suit the situation. Profits can be huge, and penal ties are small.

(International) Lillington News* MUSICAL PROGRAM IS PRESENTED TO ULLINGTON WOMAN'S CLUB Members of the Lillington Wo man’s Club heard an interesting musical program on Friday after noon when the. club met for its January session at the Community Center. Girl Scourts of Troop 16 also staged a court of awards when •they awarded community service badges to 19 members. Mrs. M. T. Phelts, 'leader, and Mrs. Harry Sshafran. assistant leader, accom panied them. Guest musicians were the Rev. L. C. Pinnix. pastor of the Lillington Baptist Church, and his wife, botn vocalists, and their, son, David, pi anist. r Mrs. Pinnix In a brief talk on the • influence of music on the world’s culture and daily living said, “Mu sic offers each of us an opportunity to get away from the ordinary things • -of life, and afford us new inspire tion. Good music is as important to ! happy family life as good food and shelter.” In an appraisal of the value of music to our culture, the speaker reviewed briefly the variajus Schools of Music, starting with the Classical when composers followed rules and laws of composition, an era that ; produced such men as Haydn, Han del, Beethoven and Bach; The next • school is referred to as the Roman tic period when new laws of com , position were developed; In this time, Schubert, Schumann and later Liszt, Chopin and Wagner; the great individualist, were to be found. Then the speaker noted, compos ers began to experiment;with un usual harmony arrangements cre ating what is known as the Modem School. As an example she review ed the life of Claude Debussey, a French composer, who has been very influential on contemporary composition. In illustration of this composer’s work, David Pinnix play ed as a piano solo “Minstrels.” In America, where' citizens for over a hundred years were busy pushing the frontier to the Pacific, music was long a neglected art, said Mrs. Pinnix. Puritans were ma run* uccom). down, w, a content with doleful renditions of psalms. Then Stephen Foster wrote sones which made him, not neces sarily our best, but our best known composer. This nation also produced the spiritual, a distinctive contribu tion of our Negro race. However, Edward McDowell was the flirst American composer to receive in ternational recognition, the speak er said, pointing out that he studied with Debussey in Paris and later remained to teach there. During his European stay his compositions reflected his love of Hungarian mu sic. As typical of this period of Mac- Dowell's life. David Pinnix played “Hungary,” oy MacDowell as a pia no solo. In closing, the Rev. Mr. Pinnix. sang two solos, "Without A Song,” and “Deep River,” illustrative of the spirituals and the program clos ed with a duet “He's My'Hero,” by Mr. and Mrs. Pinnix. Mrs. J. Grady Johnson, club pres ident, presided and at the business session members voted to erect a walk and improve the grounds at the front of the Community Cen ter as the club's contribution to Lillington participation in the Fin er Carolina Contest. Mrs. Joel Lay ton Jr., was named to represent the club on the Finer Carolinas committee. Mrs. W. B. Hunter, Mrs. Neill McLaughlin and Mrs. Neill KeUji were appointed by the president as a nominating committee to present a slate of candidates for club off ces at the February meeting. Magnolia foliage and sprigs oi spruce pine decorated the mantel and an arrangement of pink and white gladioli was used on the pi ano. At the social hour,, ham bis cuits, date bars, cheese straws and coffee were served by Mrs. O. S Atkins and Miss Lois Byrd, host esses for the afternoon.
