The United Services Fund has, in two cases, boarded out
children during the entire year for us. One a baby aged two
years, whose mother has had to undergo a lengthy period of
sanatorium treatment, the other a boy aged 12 years, was boarded
out in the country while the father was undergoing a period of
treatment in sanatorium. On the father's death shortly after his
return home, the Fund assumed full responsibility for the boy.
He is still in his country home with a good foster mother, and
making real progress with his education.
These examples serve to show the uses of the Care Committee
and the co-operation and support extended to them.
