The expenses as per vouchers, were
81, 1928 50, leaving q balance of 500 48 In the
hands of the Treasurer, and no unpaid ac-
count.
The last annual report made allusion to
the dilapidated condition OF the building
occupied by the orphans at White Bluff, and
showed that g considerable portion of the
revenue of the association had been ex-
pended in necessary repairs. The receipts
of the association have been smaller du-
ring the past year than before, and the
house at White Bluff has grown into not
only a d~ilapidated, but even a dan
gerous condition. While surround
ed by the embarrassment Incl
dent to such a condition OF things, the Off
GERS of the association report a donation
Of a tract of land just OF the outskirts of
the city, comprising sixteen lots with 8
front of 24S feet and a depth of 220 feet, to
be used as a site for our orphans home.
The tract lies Immediately south of and OPP
posite to the church of the Sacred Heart,
and in a locality combining the advantages
of health and accessibility.
Plans Of a building to be erected on this
new site have been prepared, and at a recent
meeting of q large number OF gentlemen OF
both parishes, called to take into considera-
ton the welfare of the orphans, the sum of
three thousand dollars was subscribed to
the building fund. Your officers feel, there
fore, that the members Of the association
may with good reason indulge the hope of
seeing at no distant day our orphans domi-
clled not only in comfortable quarters, but
In an institution rejecting credit on the
benevolence and charity of an enlightened
Christian community.
To the good lady collectors whose CO.
operation has been of such substantial
benefit, we return the thanks of the asso-
citation.
The health of the orphans has been good
during the past year. The faithful Sisters
In charge are unremitling in their efforts to
train their young minds and hearts IN the
culture that tends to make them honorable
and useful membersNof society.
