CHILDKEN'S HOME,

To the Editor of the Eagle.
Kindly tell the following friends that
their donations did not fall into my hands
in time to acknowledge with the other
thanksgiving offerings on Saturday last;
but assure each one that our warmest ap-
probation is theirs, and many little ones
will arise and call all blessed who have in
any way assisted US in preparing such a
comfortable home for them. In our ma
irons monthly report we find this state
ment;
Five little ones have been admitted
since our removal to the new home; three
of them came late Saturday night after
dark and without any supper. We fed
them, then proceeded to give them bath
and how we did appreciate the bath tub
and hot water" Again: 1--WE had a happy
| Thanksgiving. How the children did en-
nutsl 1t is such a comfort TO re-
aliZe that this is our last
move, and what we now make in thesway
OF improvement will be permanent /
