Head of Decatur Orphans Home Gives Figures
and Explains Situation.

The cost of rearing children in
Atlanta has increased 100 per cent
in the last ten years, according to
the Rev. J. NJ. Hawkins, superintend-
ent of the Decatur Orphans Home
Mr. Hawkins based his statement on
comparison Of the average cost of
the support of the children in the
home ten years ago, as shown by
me records of the institution, with
the present cost.
Ten years ago" said Mr.. Haw-
kins, five dollars a month, or $50 a
year, was adequate to support one of
my children; to-day it requires just
twice that much, Sl20.
These figures include all expenses
incident to the support of the child
food, clothing and eduCation-and
incidentally many of our larger girls
and boys are in college. their eX-
penses being paid by the home.
Better Standard Of Living.
This enormous increase is due not
only 10 the increased cost of all the
necessities of life, but also to the IT.
creased standard of living. To-day
we regard. as indispensable many
COnvenienCes. such as water, sewer
age, electric lights, telephones. and
so forth, which ten years ago We did
without"
Mr.. Hawkins said also that it costs
more to bring up and educate girl
than it does TO rear boy. and that
it pays better dividends. A greater
percentage o: the girls turn out
we'll than of the boys, although the
number of boys who are successful
is by no means small.
