When Baby Miriam went to her new home recently she left a string
of broken hearts among the nurses, and she indeed was a heart breaker.
______
Phyllis and Beverly Ann are prize babies, and I sincerely wish a little
girl like them were available for all the suitable, high class applicants
on our waiting list.
______
While the finding of suitable homes by the Veil neccessitates careful and
painstaking study of the different phases of this work, decidedly satisfactory
placements have resulted.
______
The Veil was founded and for more then 30 years has been conducted
with ethical success by handling the cases in a manner that will harm no
one and benefit everyone concerned. It saves the mother and her family
from social blight and gives the child the best possible start in life,
a start free from taint of any form, its future as bright as that of the
legitimately born child.
______
Most of the Veil babies are placed in Protestant homes. However,
our institution being nonsectarian, we do receive a goodly percentage of
Catholic applications. This is gratifying because there are always Catholic
patients among those in waiting. The number of applications from couples
of Jewish faith has for years exceeded the number of Jewish babies in the
Veil nursery for placement. For more then a year now it has been impossible
to keep anything like pace with the demand for Veil babies.
