cording to Judge J. Kent Greene,
president of the Washington Home
Association, the oldest operating in

reclamation of drink addicts.
Founded in 1863. the association
for many years was run as semi
municipal institution, receiving city
payments which in 1883 were limited
to $4,000 year by legislative en-
actment. Two years ago it sold the
building it maintained for men for
$4,000 and concentrated it's great

''In 1921 five men under 80 years
of age were admitted to the home,

annual report. Between the ages OF
80 and 40, SO were admitted, between
40 and SO years 65, between SO and
so years 55, between so and 70
years nine, and one over 70.
