Of at least 100000 for the purpose,
saying:

ular interest In this matter, having
made q personal inspection of the
Home for Girls. II has found the
buildings in a very dilapidated condi-
tion and beyond the stage Of repair.
The Sisters there are doing good
deal Of charitable work and even more
than should be expected of them. We
think the government should provide,
anyhow, weatherproof buildings, and
