The Children's Home at Eau Claire Opened
for It's Little Guests.

The Children's Home, an institution
established upon somewhat novel plan,
was opened recently by benevolent ladies
of Eau Claire. The home is a spacious
brick structure, where dependent children
are cared for, and is under the control of a
board OF managers, of which Mrs Daniel
Shaw, well known for charitable and be-
nevolent enterprises, is the president The
management is divided among committees
on home work and visiting, on purchasing
of supplies, ON reception and distribution
of inmates on education, and on home rule
and dietary. Children can be committed
to the home by parents or guardians, with
papers relinquishing all claims TO them, so
that they may be given for adoption when
ever deemed advisable But the main pur-
pose is to care for little waits whose
parents are dead or who have been aban-
doned by their natural protectors. The
home will accommodate thirty children,
and ten had already been placed there.
The children are educated, well-fed and
weh-clothed, and as fast as homes can be
found for them or employment where they
can learn useful occupations. they will be
relinquished by the board OF managers.
The fund for the establishment of the
home was raised by voluntary subscrip-
