Contanneo from Tut* 1 “yes” to the following questions: 1. Do you both want to adopt a child? 2. Are you happily married? 3. Are you in good health? 4. Can you provide a child with healthful, nutritious food, suitable clothing, adequate medical care and comfortable housing on your present income and allow a small margin for emergencies? (This does not mean you have to be rich. You do not have to have a large bank account and do not have to own property.) 5. Can you give a child love, affection and good care? 6. If both of you are employed, have you thought about possible ways for having the child cared for during the hours that you will be away from home? 7. Are you now young enough in years to care for a child until he grows up—in outlook to share his enthusiasms—in energy to enjoy his activities ? Childless couples answering jthe above questions affirmatively are considered eligible to apply for adoption.The Children’s Bureau also accepts couples who have one or more natural or adopted children and who genuinely desire and can care for another efiild, but cannot have one naturally. Once the couple's application is accepted, a Bureau case-worker will talk with the prospective parents in order to help determine what child would best fit into their home. Besides the interviews, the caseworker will a’so visit the couple’s home to see that it is adequate to meet his basic

needs.

(Children suffering brain damage or incurable diseases are deemed

unadpptable in this state.)

After the child is placed in the home of an adoptive couple, there is usually a waiting period of six months to a year before the adoption is legally consummated. During this period, the agency caseworker visits the home, as a protection to the parents and the baby, to be assured that this placement is satisfactory to all

concerned.

ONCE THE ADOPTION is consummated in Probate Court, the child becomes the son or daughter of the adoptive parents in every sense. Even the birth certificate is changed and the adoptive parents’ names placed on it instead of that of the natural parents. This change protects the child from general community knowledge that he is adopted but does not suggest that the child should not be told about his

adoption.

Persons wishing to adopt a Negro child are invited to write to the Children’s Bureau of the Indianapolis Orphan Asylum, 615 N. Alabama St., Indianapolis 4; or telephone ME. 4-6481.

All work with the adoptive couple and the natural parents is strictly confidential and there is no possibility of either set of parents learning the others’ identity, and thus endangering 'the security of the adopted child at a future

The adoptive parents are further protected by the agency’s having the baby thoroughly checked physically and mentally to see if he is legally adoptable.

Whether the location is the backyard, beach or a roadside park, plans for a summer weekend usually include a picnic. Ideal for such outings are Frank and Cabbage Wrapups, a new way to ' serve franks on buns. The sandwiches which contain cabbage in a peppy dressing in addition to the franks and shredded cheese are prepared at home, wrapped individually in foil and carried to the picnic site. At serving time, the packages are arranged on top of the grill and heated through. Franks are fully cooked when purchased and may be eaten either hof or cold. This makes them perfect for outdoor eating where the degree of doneness of grilled foods is often dependent upon the size of the appetite. Franks are handy for slicing with vegetables in salads and main dishes—for their popularity isn’t limited to the picnic season. Frank and Cabbage Wrapups (Yield: 10 servings) 1 pound Franks IVi cups shredded cabbage 2 tablespoons chopped green pepper 1 tablespoon chopped pimiento Vz cup shredded American cheese 2 teaspoons prepared mustard 3 tablespoons mayonnaise Va teaspoon Worcestershire sauce Salt 10 frank buns Butter or margarine Combine cabbage, ’green pepper, pimiento, cheese, mustard, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Blend well. Cut frank buns and spread with butter. Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the cabbage mixture onto each bun. Cut each frank in half lengthwise. Place frank halves on top of cabbage. Add top of bun. Wrap each frank and bun in aluminum foil. Place on outside grill for 25 to 30 minutes or until warm. Pull back foil, serve.
