Dear Sirs;— The State Highway has for sometime been uneasy as to the likelihood of injury to some of the children at Barium Springs while crossing the highway. We believe that it is desirable to build two overhead or undergrade walk ways across the highway within your campus. “These walkways, however, will be ineffective unless there is a fence built on both sides of the road the entire length of your campus sd the people wiil be forced to use the) walkways as prepared. We have estimated the cost of building two overhead walkways and an ornamental iron fence the entire distance of yourcampus to be about $7800.00. We realize that your in- stitution is supported bv from the good people of the State,and we are, therefore, not asking that you contribute to this fence and the under- passes or overheads. We are, how- ever, requesting you to allow the State | Highway Commission the privilege of building these safety devices for the Commission | donations | she lived a wee |or two after the accident, her home was in Rochester, New York.

Jessie Carrico, was here last Sun- day for a few minutes, we hardly knew “Jess” she was so “fixed up”, | she says she’s going to send us some records, so callagain, we welcome you any old time.

Mr. Wakefield, a dynamo of energy, sincere, forceful, impet»ous. 1 feared forthe future of the institution under the change but I didn’t fear long. One could but note that the general policies of the Orphans’ Home rolled peacefully on without a ripple. No radical changes were made. This sounds like a con- tradiction, but really ‘tis ret. I always think of Boyd as deep water on whos2 mighty bosom ride: the great ships of the sea. I look back and think of Wakefield as the cataract:—as the wartefalls which turn the mighty wheels of commerce and accomplish the wonders of the twen- jtieth century. But I look back on both as devout men, utterly devoid of jguile. Sincere men who prayed with itheir eyes shut to the world and got |what they prayed for. Constructive |men whose point of vision contem- plated years ahead and miles wide. | Brave men,the bravest men here about | both men withall of a gentleness | equal to the touch of a mother. God | works in a mysterious way. His | wonders to perform. Just about the time big brother | John caught up his full stride and was |giving 18 hours of service each day jto the cause of parentless children; just at the apex of his wonderlul days of usefulness another call came to him. He answeredthe call. “hat tremend- jous dynamic force of his had been |expended in the cause. For a very “few days he lay on a bed of illness but the doctor hadn’t gone to him a few months previous and told him to get ‘his fishing red and tramp the stream borders. Had they even done so he would have laughed at them. His |vitality and Spower of resistance had | been so lowered that he fell an easy |victim to ravages of disease. Big | honest impetous John Wakefield died for the cause. | He died just so surely as if he had been shot down in the trenches. | | was appalled and fora long time I couldn’t think of this splendid man as of the spirit world. His counsel was So eminently sound and his influence to the entire community so beneficial, |his services to the home were so badly needed that just why he was called and | others left I couldn’t concieve. The | impression of the labors of these two men will continue to be felt for years yet to come. | Swords into plowshares; spears into reaping hooks; dance halls to chruches; | bar rooms to schoolhouses; chaos to | order. | Father Boyd, I send you greetings. ‘Your influence in my life has been nothing but good. Big brother John, if perchance,through some of the Divine Myst-ries of the | Spirit world, thou art permitted to look | down on the scenes of thy recent la- | bors, thou canst but see the utmost fruition of thy toil.

You will note that every cottage except two have very Interesting news letters. “he two that did not get their letters in are not the Baby Cottage or home of the little ones as you might think but Jenny Gilmer and First fioor Lottie Walker, the homes of the very biggest boys and girls, Weknow that this doesn’t mean a lack of news nor do we think ita lack of ability to read and write. All of this crowd are in the High School and they couldn't have fooled the teachers to get that far along without at least learning to write. We know that our graduating class were a bright lot but we didn’t think they had walked of with all the brains of the entire high school. Maybe however, the reason for no letters from these cottages is not so serious as that no. brains have been left there but that increasing years and the burdens attendant thereto have brought on a period of relaxation. Sor-etime extreme old age does bring abeut a condition like that. Sonie old people can sit so still and for so long that they actually fool mosquitoes and that may be the trouble with our two big cottages that we usu lly like to brag about. We certainly hope that watermelon time or Robin Heod or the State Picnic will wake them up long enough to see that the world is still moving, and still anxious to know how the Big Boys and Girls are getting along.

For example. In planning our schoo! work for an- ather year we had considered the sub- ject of drawing and had been reluc- tantly forced to—abandon the hope of providing the materials for this im- portant work because’ there were so mauy things that were absolutely es- sential that the appropriations for school purposes could not be stretched to include drawing also. Behold our surprise when our friend, Mr. W. 45. ‘Templeton. of Statesville, called to see us the other afternoon, bringing with him enough drawing pencils to dast us for a whole session of school. Possibly the Lord did not whisper our need to-Mr. Templeton but you would certainly have dithculty in con- vincing us to the contrary. ‘1'.L.O. from Lexi And ask these bills to pay. Mks. C. A.

When a man’s a man he will never shirk the task that his hand maj find. ° He is never too big for the long day’s works, too busy to be kind; He never sneers at the faith you hold, never needless hurt he gives When a man’s a man it is plainly told by the gentle way he lives. —Kdgar A.

Newcomers Our list of newcomers for the month of August reads like the direct- ory of New York City, but in com- parison with the list of applications | that are still on file it seems a very small list. Commencing August the fourth Idel} Ellis, John Ellis and Norris | Ellis from Lexington, then Margie Lee from Linden. Hattie Michael | from Greensboro has found congenial surroundings in the baby cottage. Here is a_ whole flock of girls fur Rumple and Lottie Walker, Rachel Dowles from Wilmington, Cora Lee Helms, Pauline Helms, Naomi Faulk- ner, Neil Coxwell from Charlotte and James Little also from Charlotte, this last one is old enough to be call- ed Jimmie. As this is written on the 27th of the month the real heavy coming in hasn’t happened yet. We are expecting, three Alexanders from Charlotte Five Houpes irom Iredell and one McArt- an from Linden, and one Kirby frem Thomasville before the end of the month. This makes 368 children altogether, just eight over full capacity, so it is not likely that there will be any vacancies before the first of the year. This means the taking in of 137 children since the beginning of the Synodical year, this is so much larger number than for any year previous that it is more than a record. It means reorganizing the school work, and nearly every other dept. of the place, the preparing of meals for this greatly increased number is a tre- mendous undertaking, the laundry, the clothing and all otherthings are each a business in itself. Last but not least the providing of money to take care of all this is quite some job. We believe our people love this work and are ever ready to provide for it. ‘“Uheir failure at times to do so is often our fault in allowing our needs to be forgotton. We wish every Pres- byterian inthe Synod could have a | picture of our large family ever before them, then our welfare would be as- sured. The Sign of The Big Broom Look at whose wearing the sign |this month, the first time a boys cot- |tage has won it. It seems to me that we heard somebody say that the boys couldn’t keep things clean enough to ever win this banner. Of course they’ve often gotten honorable mention and almost won out but this time they’ve won it. Hot Molasses, Yes sir, Synod won it and every boy on the place is daring the girls to ever get it back. For fear some of our readers don’t know what we are talking about, we will explain, the “sign’” is a banner that is hung upon the cottage that is kept the neatest for the preceeding month. The judges are always friends from some other town who visit each cottage several times during the month observing the appearance of the house and grounds, awarding the banner to the best kept. Rumple Hall was the first to win it, the Second Floor Lottie Walker then Annie Louise, then First Floor Lottie Walker, then Baby Cottage, and now Synods, Oh you boys, hold on to it.

II. PRESBYTERIAN ORPHAN: HOME, FOR THE BARIUM SPRINGS, N.C, NOVEMBER, 1924 INFORMATION OF ITs FRIENDS THANKSGIVING COMES Xf ing about money, and the present state of the Orphanage’s finances. It has even caused some of the news articles of the cottagestobeleft out We realize that it isn’t near as pleasant as the usual run of Messengers and the getting up of the copy wasn’t near as pleasant either. To all those who may be inclined to grumble over this issue we would suggest their reading the first six verses of the third chapter of Ecclesiates. The development of the financing of the Orphanage has come to this condition. About two thirds of the entire revenue of the Orphanage comes in through the Thanksgiving offering, and all other church causes mark time and give way to the Orphan- age at this time. The reason this issue is full of money talk is because we realize the absolute necessity of a full response Thanks- giving, and that a failure to get this response at this time closes the doors until next Thanksgiving, for the other causes must be served. Verily this a “time to talk”, and we want to make the talking so effective that. the eleven other issues of the “Messenger” can be devoted to real news and thanks for your support. Don’t fail to read every word in this issue. It will be the only one like it for a whole year. Then get out your check book and fountain Pen.

A litt’e nervousness on Ba.iums part and a break for Concord gave Concord the ball within striking cistance of the goal. They made jgzood and pushsd one over, no goal score 6to 0. In the second quarter and in the third Concord scored by touchdowns but each time failed for extra point. In the last quarter still | plugging away holding the ever fresh Concord team for downs time after time, Concord tried a punt. The punt was caught by Kerr on Barium’s 30 yd. line, and he ran theran the ball back just seventy yards and was just then getting in his stride. During this un it looked as if each Concord player tackled him once but Kerr had taken another of those stubborn spells and wouldnt stop. Barium failed to make extra point.

Financial: The detailed report attached shows that our deficit has increased over that of last year. he various contribut- ing agencies are increasing their con- tributions but have not yet quite reached the level necessary to. safely care for this great work. We wish to call attention to the size of our endowment and the very slow rate at which it is growing not yet upto the first $100,000.00. The Synod has this to be proud of-it is do- ing the most splendid bit of Orphanage work on the smallest endowment of any institution of near itssize within our knowledge. We have even passed ‘Thornwell in numbers, but our endowment is less than a third of hers and Thornwells is not large. Just on the face of it it looks as if we were do- ing a tresténmdous amount of work by our contributions. A closer examina- tion wil] show however that to keep this work going it is necessary to use jall undesignated legacies forthe run- ning expenses rather than to put them into the endowment fund and use only the income from them. We believe we are receiving legacies in pos- sibly larger proportion than some other institutions but we must re- member that a legacy is a LAST gifc of a heretofore regular contributor and unless it is placed to give us a regular return it means a weakening of our support rather than a strengthening. ‘The only danger that is now threat- ening the glorious work of vour wond- erful instutition is falling short in support and the danger from this source we believe to be due not to any ill willtoward this cause but a complacent attitude rather, that be- lieves the cause will be taken care of anyway, so why make any real effort. Religious For half the year our church has been without a pastor and this at a time when new children have come in at a fasterrate than eyer before. Apparently each worker felt the added reponsibility of doing more earnest personal work themselves for there has been many evidences of the work of the Spirit. Forty five have joined the church since August 15th by profession and four by letter. Dur- ing the whole year there has been 63 tea months of trial we do not hesitate to Pronounce the experiment a success. We are ready to compare these boys with any other from institution or home believing our boys will stand out for dependability, pride in their home and in every quality that goes into the making of good citizens. The other departure is a training course for matrons, It has been rece ognized by orphanage people that the | matron is the important cog in the wheel of the organization. That you have a good institution or bad just as your matrons are good or bad. And the training of this most important worker has been left to chance large- ly. To better this condition we have putin the training course at which student matrons can take training much as a nurse does in a hospital, doing actual work in the lines she prefers and during her four months training getting a course of lectures covering different phazes of child care and training. “Vhese lectures are being given by Dr. Frazer Hood of David- son, and Drs. Davis and Hart, of Statesville, and the Manager. ‘This plan is in its early stages but already shows promise of most excellent re- sults, not only in the training of new workers, but in the quickened _ inter- est and enthusiam of the matrons al- ready employed here. This plan is self supporting in that | The Little Marble Houses | | | Once upon a time there was a little city and in the littlecity there was a little curved street of shiny, white | houses — beautiful, white marble houses all polished and clean. In | j each little house there was a little j sister, Miss Nerve and two little | brothers, Artery and Vein. For a long time the owner of the | little city kept the white marble houses nice and clean and all of the children were happy. But after a | while the owner of the city began to eat jtoo much candy and cake and always wanted two big spoonfuls of sugar on his oatmeal. Becanse it was so sweet he had to drink two big glasses of ice water and then he would not drink his milk. This was so bad for him that he very lazy and used to go to bed with his work undone. ‘hen weeds began to grow up around the shiny, white houses. Soon the weeds were so thick and high around one of the little marble houses that the imps could hide in them. These little imps had hammers and nails, and hiding behind the weeds they used to hammer away until they made tiny, tiny holes in the little houses. Afterthe holes were made, it Was very easy for the imps to make the only expense so far incurred is the | these holes larger. * board of the students and the work | After a littlke Miss Nerve used they contribute has enabled us to do | away with salaried jobs to more than counterbalance this expense. Recommendations ‘The congregation of Little Joe’s church have called as their pastor Rev. W.C. Brown of Raeford and he has accepted the call. And"this call is for his full time, the congregation feeling that the size of the member- ship and the importance of the work demanded this. We strongly recom- mend the immediate erection of a manse, that Mr. Brown's family may be housed comfortably and in keeping with his work. In conclusion we believe the past year to nave been an unusual one in progress made in all lines. Our hopes | are being realized and the way is opening to better and more glorious things yet to be accomplished. We believe the futrue holds for this belov- ed institution unlimited oppurtunities for work in the Master's Kingdom. We plead with you as a board of Re- gents and through vou the entire Sy- nod to see to it that the press o! other matters and appeals howeve- worthy do not crowd this great work into the background. We do not want to have to resort to periodic high pressure methods in straightening out our finances, believing that to be hurtful, but ask that each pastor and church see to it that this cause is pre- sented adequately at its appointed time so that we may not fall short in our part of this work that God is so wonderfully blessing.

As there \-ere no | weeds to hide in, the little imps never tried to make holesin the houses of that littie town again.

Football is such a vital force in right living and developing al! that is manly in a boy that no man can really know the game and its benefits and be even lukewarm toward ‘t, much less op- posed to it. And of all institutions to be benefitted by football we beleive the Orphanage derives the most good. Football is 2 rough game in appear- ance and yet it developes gentleness. It requires every ounce of energy de livered in clean honest effort but it de- velops a courtesy that stamps a man a gentleman for life. It shows up th coward and braggart, and eliminates the bully. Lets sum up a few of the benefits. Our Doctor never goes to a game and yet when our physical examinations commence he always picks out the foot ball player on account of the ex- traord nar; developement in a_ years time. Ouf head matron wouldn't know when a score was made and she has been in Orphanage work a good many years, she 'says that something has made the ball squad the most courteous gentlemanly loc of boys she has ever known here. Our school teachers are good teachers and rather jealus of anything that may distract from studies. They report finstead of a falling off in scholarship on account of football a more intelligent effort to make the most of school. Strangers that meet our boys either on our cam- pus or else where often comment on their selfpossession and well bred ap- pearance, and this is in no small part due to the meeting of other teams here and elsewhere. About runaways, there has been no runaway of a boy connected with the team since football started here, and no runaway of any boy for over a year. Possibly we give entirely too much space to football in our little paper but during the fall months it is a thing of vital interest to every child at this institution, every boy even down, to the babies is practicing, and the doings of the team ts monentous. Anything that interests our family to such an ex- | tent we believe interets our friends, Now just one word as to the on- lookers view-point. We haven't yet been able to figure out a convenient time for our vacation and our work piles up inthe fall in a dangerous manner. The doctors say that it will certainly bring on high blood pressure and quick death, and the burden of looking after our own football team adds to this work. But get this, for this | particular individual a well played | game of football is worth a full weeks | vacation and rest.

Following the abit of womankind we will begin with our wants. Wanted: By Mrs. Fraley something to close Elmer Rodricks big mouth. Wanted: by Thelma Godwin some one to build the fires on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Wanted: by Miss Compton some thing guaranteed to hold her hair down. Wanted: by Leone Caudill some- thing to make her grow tall. Wanted: by Virginia Edwards, Mary Belle Lee, Zora Lee, Texie Johnson and Eula Anthony more trash baskets to empty. Wanted: by Margeret Brooks every body be quiet. Wehaven’t much time to devote to our wants, as we have more import- ant things to think about this time of the year. We are all looking forward toa_ big Thanksgiving we can see the prepar- ation for our dinner going on over at the kitchen.

And Relatives of The Children We are always glad to welcome you here, especially during the Holiday Season, and want you to enjoy your visit without feeling that you are imposing on any one but some results of these visits have to be considered. When just one person comes we could hardly notice the difference, but when scores come it makes a very great difference and in the present financial condition of the institution we do not feel that we have a right to entertain vou out of the Orphanage funds. If we did, it would eventually mean that it would deprive the children of something very necessary to their welfare. . Again the entertainment of many guests during the holidays or week ends means extra work for the dining room and kitchen groups and you naturally expect the children you visit to be excused from work to be with you. Not much of a good time for the ones that Fave to do the extra work, is it? For this reason we h. ve decided to make a charge of (5Ucents) a meal inour Dining Room: or $2.00 a day when lodging is also prov- ided. There are homes near the Campus where other arrangment can be made for a short period of time and we much prefer that this be done as our accommodations are very limited. This is still their home and we are always glad to welcome them, not just as guests but as grown-up members of the family. PRESBYTERIAN ORPHAN'’'S HOME Jos. B. Johnston Manager.
