Of Hot Springs Contribute to

of the most touching letters received in
many years by the Children's Home So
ciety was the one that came to hand
today from the State Soldiers home
at Hot Springs, written by Mrs. T.
u. Orr, wife OF the commandment and
matron of the home.
Colonel Orr wrote the Home about
two weeks ago saying that the in
mates of this institution were very
DESTROYS of doing something to aid
the unfortunate children of the state
in care of the Children's Home, and
suggested that they would like a few
tags, intending to promote 3 tag day
or something that would be an an
nual occurrence.
Accordingly a bunch of tags we're
sent TO him and this morning the home
Is in receipt of a cheek for $15 20 re-
presenting the receipts on the sale of
these tags, and the pathetic feature of
the letter of t%ransmittal is that $40. So
of this amount was contributed by the
sick men and nurses in the hospital.
A cheering sentiment no wever, init
mates that every one seemed anxious
10 buy the tags and expressed them
selves as glad to help a cause so
worthy.
The Soldiers Home and its man
agement and members will always
find an %endearing spot in the hearts
of the unfortunate little ones who are
cared for by the Children's Home go
