recently.

About eighteen months ago, Robert carne to live with us at LeRoy Boys' Home. He was just a little fellow but with great big problems. He had been in and out of manv foster homes and had been described as unmanageable. We agreed! It took the orav_ ers, patience, understanding and love of "Aunt" Barbara and the cooperation of all the staff to get Robert to conform to the routine of daily, group living. His progress pleased us but as he became better ad- justed we became more convinced that his problems were not all emotional. We requested that he be re-examined at the Children's Hospital.

It had been thought his problems were all emotional due to his verv chaotic early background. It has now beeir established he has approximately 48Vo hearing loss in both ears and is extremely far sighted. Well, Robert has his hearing aid! He is excited and we are all pleased. Now, he can hear conversation at the table, listen to the evening stories and bedtime prayers. In a few weeks, he will have his glasses and be able to see better as well as hear better. A whole new world is opening up for this boy. We are thrilled that LeRoy Boys'Home has had the opportunity of helping Robert through difficult times."
