WORK DAY

To all friends of Orphan children
in Mississippi.
Dear Friends;
lam writing to call your atten
tion to the fact that Saturday
October Ia has been set apart by
the management of the Mississ-
ippi Orphans Home as Work
Day, and the Sunday following,
October Is, is special Orphanage
Sunday By "Work Day. is
meant that every friend of the
orphan children is requested to
give the proceeds of one DAYS
work or the proceeds of one day
business for the support of our
220 children in the Orphansge
A bout 332 children have been
cared for during the entire year
and about 220 have been kept i'll
the home throughout the year.
1t is sincerely hoped that each
church, Sunday School class,
Missionary Society, Epworth
League and individual will OBJ
serve this day for the orphan
children. We appreciate very
much rhe response by all who
have observed one Sunday reg
ularly during the year. In
Many cases the receipts have
been liberal and generous, but
these funds have not been suffi-
cient to meet our necessary ex-
penses. A number.of bills have
had to 60 over without being
paid until after Work Day.
Each pastor and superintendent
ii requested to appoint a special
committe 70 carry out the pro-
gratn for Orphanage Sunday, as
published ii bur Home, and to
|recaive the proceeds OF Work
DaB These may be procured
from your pfinter and same be
