ANNUAL A Splendid Year More Help Needed From the Government. The annual meeting of the Board of Management of the Orphans' Home was held at the institution on Friday afternoon and the reports presented showed that the past year was one of the best in the history of the home, and that every depart- ment was efficiently managed, re- flecting the greatest credit upon the ladies who give unstintingly of their time and abilities in promoting the welfare of the children under thelr care. . Mayor Corbett presided, and nx- cellent addresses were given by Rev. Dr. W. S. Lenvon and Rev. Dr. MacFayden, while the officers and members of the board of manage: ment were treatnd to a very pleas- ing musical programme by the chil- dren under the direction of Miss Merriman, who accompanied them. It was a pleasure to see the chRi- dren, all of whom were well nourish- ed, neatly and comfortably clad and beaming intelligence. They sang sweetly and throughout the pro- gramme preserved the utmost good order. A report was given on ihe "Union Jack Club." Their appear- ance and deportment reflects great credit upon Miss Mackenzie, superin- tendent of the home, and her assist- ants. But this was not all. The mayor and a representative of the Whig were privileged to inspect the entire institution accompanied by Mrs. A. L. Clarke, a member of the execu- tive committee and they were de- lighted with ali that they saw. The dormitories for girls and little chil- dren were beautifully kept, the cots and woodwork newly enamelled in white while the floors, closets and lavatories were scrupulously clean. The clothing rooms and linen closets ing that the utmost good order was carried out in the datly regimen. The same condition was found in the boys' dormitories, in the school room, dining rooms, kitchen and storerooms. The institution is self-contained in every respect and recent repalis and improvements carried out under the management committee make 't one of the best orphan homes in Canada. Mayor Corbett paid a high compliment to the ladies upon thelr work, for it is an {institution of which they might well be proud. Management Report. Mrs. H. D. Bibby, corresponding secretary, presented the annual re- port of the board of management as follows: "We have in the Home under our care a yearly average of forty-five children. At present we have twenty- two girls and 23 boys. The senior classes attend the public schools, while the others are taught in the home by Mrs. Gamsby. At the age of three children are admitted to the home and kept clothed and cared for until suitable homes are found for them. We re- gret that quite recently a death of one of our children occurred in the Kingston General Hospital--the child being nine years old and sub- ject to croup. "We are still hoping and looking or increased grants from the gov- ronment and city. In figuring the government grant out it amounts to five cents per day for each child. This amount would not meet the ex- pense of the home were it not for the generous support of our friends. It would be almost impossible to mention the names of all those who have shared in the pleasures of helping this worthy Institution. Those who have contributed to the home in the past, continue to do so year after year, but we need more helpers and 'more workers. Any suggestions either from members cf the home or the public will be glad- ly received and given every consid- eration by the committee of manage- ment. "During the summer months the superintendent, Miss MacKenzie was given a much needed holiday. Her place was most efficiently filled by Mrs. Jarvis. J "In many ways the pas} year has been a record one for the home. The building committee, recognising the need of many repairs have spent. time, money and thought in making the absolutely necessary improve. ments, in fact, the home has been thoroughly renovated. "Visitors are welcome In the home every Tuesday and Friday between the hours of 3 and 5 o'clock. Y "Let me give you a few of our many ways of raising money: Tag Day, $592.69; rummage sale, $170.- 81; Donation Day, $50, besides sheets, pillow covers and a groat deal of provisions. We have also 8a ceived from the late Mrs. McCauley $1,000 in memory of mother; from the late Mrs. M , $8500; nell who have for many years given | much of their valuable time to the | children of the Bome without any | remuneration. | "To all and any who have helped, | in brightening the lives of the little | {ones of the Orphan's Home we de- | {sire to express our sincere thanks | and appreciation." ; The registrar's report showsd that the total number of inmates during the year ending the 30th Sep- tember, was 100; number of in- mates remaining on 30th September, 46; average stay per inmate, 176 days; bed capacity 70; all inmates Protestants: inmates received from Kingston, 59¢ from Frontenac, 33: from othér places in Ontario 8. 3 Treasurer's Report. Mrs. J, A. MacCallum presente: the financial statement. The total revenwe was $10,902.90. and the expenditure $10,782.64 , leaving & credit balance of $120.26. In this connection, it was pointed out that the government allowed but five cents per child per day, which was regarded as inadequate and Dr. MacCallum proposed that the boasd request the government, through the local member, for an increase in the allowance. The home was In need of more support, and should not be left entirely to the charity of the ladles of Kingston. Dr. MacCallum reported upon tha health of the children, which was good throughout the year. There was but one death. All children have received most careful treatment. Miss Lewis reported for the house committee and told of the complete renovation of the building. Mrs. BE. J. Cunningham reportad for the ways and means commities were systematically arranged show- |" which conducted a tag day, rum- mage sale and gift day with satisfac- tory results, : Miss Waldron reported for the clothing committee.
