HEART PROBLEMS

Dear Mrs. Thompson I am a middle-aged man and my wife Is three years younger than I. We have been married ten years and have no children. I am very, fond of children and eo was my wife until about one year ago. We had often talked about

adopting one, but she refuses to do so now. What would be the best to do In this case? It would be fine to have a child to care or and it would be lots of pleasure for both of us. She would make a beautiful mother if she became attached to a child and realized that it vas hers to care for. We are very well situated . and I have a nice Income and would do all I could for

one if I just had a chance to do so. If we were to have one adopted how is the best way to go about it? What aged baby would you suggest having? HUSBAND Since it Is your wife who would have the care of the child you cannot adopt one very well unless she is willing to do so. Let 'her know that you want her to be happy and if she can be happier without a child in the houso than with one you are willing she should have her way. Probably she will see how disappoined you are and then consent to take a child. You could get a baby from the state orphanage, but this might not be as satisfactory as it would be to get one through a maternity hospital. Veiy often hospitals are f.nxious to place babies. Your wife should decide what age she prefers to have. If she took a new baby she could train it in her way from the beginning and would not have as much difficulty in learning to understand the child.
