THE FEMALE ORPHAN ASYLUM
The Great Work 1t Has Done During a Century Of
Existence
BY RUTH STEWART LEAKEN.

ing was a large roomy double house.
with grounds. In passing 1t the Bull
street stroller was reminded of the
happy young people within, by hear
ing the even-songs at twilight. After
the lapse of half a century, the city
had entirely surrounded the home, and
it was decided to leave this neighbour
hood and to purchase the old Telfair-
Wetter house, the present abode, where
the public is made welcome to see
the great work and to realize that about
fifty children are inmates.
The words of our Lord, Suffer little
children to come unto Me and forbid
them not, for of such is the kingdom
of heaven" seems to be the spirit that
pervades the atmosphere of the home,
and the bright, happy faces Of the dear
little ones show their appreciation of
the loving care of the matron, Mrs.
Bragg, who for twenty-nine years has
been their faithful friend and mother"
and of the directresses, to whom Is due
some praise that through all these
years the institution has been permit
ted to survive and surmount difficult
ties of finance, earthquake, storm and
pestilence.
A few legacies have been left, but
they have been few. The shrink
age in investments has greatly
curtailed the income of the in
stitution. If every man, woman and
child would put a shoulder to the
wheel, give each of his or her bounty,
pass the word of cheer and help to
spread the wing of protection over the
lives of these children, who have not
been fortunate as others, what glori-
GUS result could be accomplished. Some
mention should be made, too. of the
dear ones gone before" who have
been gathered to their fathers" and
are now reaping the golden harvest OF
the seed sown in this soil, certain, too,
that they have laid up their treasure
in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt and where thieves cam
not break thro' and steal"

The history Of the Female Orphan
Asylum, at West Broad street and Ogle-
thorpe avenue, would indeed be an in
teresting one, If all the details could
be given. How many noble women,
for several generations, have been
brought up under the spiritual guild
ance and helpful influence of the man
ayers, who have given so much of their
time and substance to it's maintenance
In 1901, a meeting was held in the
then Independent Presbyterian Church,
led by Rev. Henry Holcombe of the First
Baptist Church. The object of this
meeting was to form an organization
for the care of orphan girls. The orig
lnal number of directresses or managers
was fourteen-Mrs. Elizabeth Smith,
Mrs. Ann Clay, Mrs. Jane Smith, Mrs.
Sarah Lamb, Mrs. Margaret Hunter,
Lady Ann Houston, Mrs. Holcombe,
Mrs. Hannah McAllister Mrs. Susan
nah Jenkins. Mrs. Ann Moore, Mrs.
Moore, Miss Rebecca Newell, Mrs. Mary
Wall and Mrs. Martha Stephens.
These ladies worked so faithfully to
provide home for the little waits that
their efforts were crowned with sue
cess, when in 1906 the city donated a
lot and frame building in the north
eastern portion of the town.
In 1910 the Georgia Legislature incor-
porated, the society under the name of

Joseph Jefferson, who has always
sought to elevate the stage by present.
ing clean plays, believes that the ele-
walton of the stage means the elevation
of society as whole; that the increase
of the general wealth, bringing with
it the cultivation and graces of the
highest civilization, means that the
stage will keep pace with it. In an
interview recently given to an Eastern
critic. Mr.. jefferson says:
You ask me which sort of play is
bound to live? l answer unreservedly
that it is clean play that will endure
longest. | believe, moreover, that the
people care most for the play of this
character; yet, on the other hand. it is
still true that the immoral play if well
acted and produced in splendid fashion,
will continue to be well patronized
Yet If there be immoral plays now.
