TRUSTEES WILL PROCEED WITH
ERECTION OF CENTRAL
BUILDING.
Raleigh News and Observer

At Il meeting of the trustees of the
Methodist Orphanage. held in New
Bern. 1T was decided to proceed With
the erection of the central building.
At the New Bern meeting Rev. j. w.
Jenkins was elected superintendent OF
the orphanagc for q term OF one year.
Mr.. Jenkins has been the acting super
intendent for some time. The selection
will be received with satisfaction all
over the state. for Mr.. Jenkins has
been foremost in the work of eStab
fishing the Orphanage.
Mr.. j. Stan Wynec, who went to New
Bern to attend the meeting OF the trus-
tees OF the orphanagc. reports that the
members of the conference are cnthu-
siastic over the progress made with the
orphanagc and that they are ready to
give their best efforts towards making
it an institution worthy OF the denomi-
nation and the state.
Among the important actions of the
trustees of the orphanage was the de
termination 10 elect financial secre-
tary and agent, who will take the field
in behalf of the orphanage. The idea
of putting n man actively in the field
to canvass for the orphanaGc was orig
mated by leading Methodists from
other sections of the state. The idea
met with instantaneous favor. and of
course received the hearty support of
the Raleigh delegation.
The orphanagc holds n strong place
in the affections of North Carolina
Methodists. The denomination is de-
termincd 10 make the institution one
of which the whole state will be proud
The opportunity is ripe for great things
for the orphanage. and the ultimate
success OF the institution is assured
Tho main building which the trustees
decided to erect at once will cost about
$4,000. The trustees already have plans
in hand for such Il building. That it
shall be 4 modern and handsome build
ing is the decision of the trustees.
While the orphanage has been dedi-
Gated, ii viii not be formally opened
for ten days or two weeks. Many APP
plications have been received for the
entrance or orphan children, but there
is a certain amount of red tape" which
has TO take its course before applicants
can be admitted.

where she had been sitting the man
spied a piece of black net. Jumping

if he had been jabbed with a hatpin,
while the passengers grinned.
