AND SERVICE be Ugh aa Phone 2111 t ,Mt Olive Tar Heels are the most successful matchmakers on earth! That does not mean, necessarily, they are any better than folks from other, states in getting suitable mates for Aunt Lizzie or Cousin Susie, neither of whom is getting any younger. . Besides, such a feat as that would not necessarily be "successful.'' It'd be more "miraculous" than any thing else. Right now we're not so Interested in miracles as we are in the brand of success found in bringing togeth er people who will love each other forever. And where would you find where could you find more successful matchmaking than at the Child ren's Home Society ef North Caro lina? The successful process has two primary ingredients. First, we have happy babies who don t Know uiey are without parents to care ior them. Then we have the childless married couples who want nothing in life so much as a baby to care for. Since the Children's Home was organized in 1902, the two primary ingredients have been carefully blended for over 8,000 babies and their new parents. It may be surprising to some that there are more couples wishing to adopt babies than there are babies to be adopted. In fact, for every baby at the Children's Home, there are 13 couples who apply to adopt a child. That bit of information may bring the question: "If that's the case, then why does it cost $183,000 a year to operate the Children's Home?" And another: "Why are they asking for $53,000 of it as Christmastime?" Well, Christmas belongs to child ren. Christmas is a time for giving. What could be more natural than giving to children at Christmastime? And what could be more rewarding, inwardly, than giving to children who have no parents? The answer to the first part of the question is that the Children's Home is just what the name implies and it is that for 24 hours a day, 369 days a year Most of the time the home has its capacity of 20 babies. The care they get is as tender and as loving as any TLC any baby ever got And running a nursery is not inexpen sive, you know. The other expenses are wrapped up in the opening statement the one about Tar Heels being "suc cessful" matchmakers. It doesn't just happen that the matchmaking at the Children's Home Society is successful. It re quires careful checking of both the babies and their parent; and grand parents, and of the couple to which the baby will be offered for adop tion. Say, for Instance, a young mother realizes she cannot take proper care of her baby. Perhaps she is recent ly widowed or perhaps she is un wed. She decides to assure her baby of a bright future by allowing it to be legally adop'ed through the Children's Home Society. She will know that the baby will be examined by leading doctors when it enters the home and when it leaves, and well cared for in be tween. She will not know, however, who adopts the child. It will be placed King. Their daughter, Mrs. Jim Plyler, Mr. Plyler and children, Douglass and ''Christie" were also here during the Christmas season. Ensign Alfred Wells has returned to his duties at an Air Force Base near Corpus Christi, Texas, follow ing a visit with his parents Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Walls and relatives In Charlotte. Miss Connie Jo Wells attended a Youth Conference of the North Carolina Synod held at Davidson College. December 27-29. Mrs. E. M. Sills returned Sunday from a holiday visit with her pa renst. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Lee. Sr., at their home in Tampa, Fla. Rev. and Mrs. N. P. Farrier were In Wilmington Monday to visit Mrs. Farrier's sisers, Miss Ida Black and Mrs. Milton Alexander.

PLANT ' WAYNE AGRICULTURAL Y0RI(S South John ; L w r with a couple living as far as pos sible from her town In an attempt to prevent future anguish on the part of all concerned. Even though the baby is legally adopted by the new parents, that fact does not eli minate hurts. Another important thing that helps give the Children's Home So ciety a tip top rating in successful matchmaking, is the way a baby and its new parents are "brought together" as often as possible ac cording to similarity of backgrounds with some emphasis on looks. Why do that? Why care about backgrounds? Isn't the major con cern the future of the child? It s, and that's exactly why similar backgrounds and similar looks are important If they are similar. It will streng then the bond between the child ana its new parents. They will make it easier for o'her members of the family and neighbors to accept the child as one of the family. Parents must feel there is a ba sic similarity of background and that they are offering the child the best opportunities possible. Pa rents must feel comfortable with what they know about the child's background and the child must give evidence of being able to take ad vantage of the same oppor'unities the couple's own child might have had. One thing about looks. If a baby has a dominant strain of national ity, a couple possessing the same dominant strain likely would be the lucky new parents, all things considered, of course. Couples seeking to adopt a child are not awarded it on a first-come, first-served basis. However, the waiting time is taken into consideration-, and all things equal, coup les on 'he list longest are consid ered ahead of new couples on the list. It's all part of the Children's Home's "successful matchmaking." How good , a job does the Child ren's Home do in pleasing. In pick ing the right baby for the right couple? Well, some of the nurses there cannot remember and they have long memories a baby being turned down by a couple. That choice comes at a most dra matic moment which could be call ed the Moment of Truth. In a par or on the second floor of the Chil Jren's Home, the couple sees for the first time the baby picked for them. The baby is placed in a bassinet and the social worker leaves the room to wait downstairs, to let the couple be alone to decide. Naturally the couple is nervous. What a moment tha must be? They can hold the baby, tickle its chin, coo at it, talk baby talk, get ac quainted. They decide whether they are drawn to that particular baby, whe ther thev want that Dartlcular baby 'as their own, as their legal heir, as the child to carry on the family name. As far as , the present staff can PRICES Goldsboro, N. C. o ' r 7 ..i,3 JkU v & y remember' the answer to the big de cision has always been, "Yes, that one is the right one for us." With formalities over ,the couple heads home with a little stranger who will, in time, become as dear to them as if born of their own flesh and blood. The "new" parents leave with the answer to their greatest desire, p baby. The baby has loving; par ents. What could be better? Nothing, really, but above and beyond the mutual love and trust bo'h the baby and Its parents hsve some thing neither could be sure of if the baby had been adopted through means other than a licensed agen cy such as the Children's Home Soc iety. That something, that important something, is protection and secur ity for both the baby and its new parents. The baby is legally adop'ed. The identity of the child is safe-guarded. The future for both looms bright i.-Lic at the Children's Home So .iety in Greensboro, the women who care for the little tots while parents are being picked are both happy and sad, . Thev are happy because another of their babies has driven off in the arms of loving parents to a se cure future. They are sad because they have said goodbye to a baby who won their hearts. No, grown up 'ears are not un usual on days when a baby gets a new mother and father. see sups:i ss moijdaycoIjfTT . . , f - li- si ' . - " iff i i mw. i-, - nil.' ll " ".

" That process. involves.' much mon ey. Fifty three per cent of the mon ey . spent last year went to the casework division, where 11 the planning for children and parents is centered. ;;, ;x.-; .The next 'largest proportion. ' 21 per cent, was used to care for babies in the nursery, boarding homes or in hospitals while they waited for the decisions that would give them new futures. ;v;v'JmS'..':'- ''"A- Only 7 per cent went for fund raising, publicity and the important work of informing the public a bout adoption needs. . General ad ministration, maternity care. insur a nee, upkeep of property, commun ications, office supplle sand equip ment accounted for the . remainder of the money received. ' , ' All that goes into the process of matchmaking. 1 So how does that make Tar Heels successful matchmakers? Because the' Children's Home is so success ful a matchmaker and because the Children's Home Society could not operate without funds given it by North Carolinians. The Children's Home Society and Tar Heels actually are one. That s why. A fire wrecked the Philadelphia Fire Marshal's office last summer.
