ANNUAL SILVER TEA .
OF PROTESTANT HOME
SET FOR OCTOBER II
Friends of Institution Asked
to Attend and Learn
of Work.

Saturday afternoon. October %,
has been chosen by the directors of
the Protestant Orphans Home as the
date of the annual tea TO be given
for the benefit of the little children
who are cared for in the home.
The tea is yearly given in the
Home that visitors may become per-
sonally acquainted with the children
who live there and see the need that
exists for help of every kind. There
are 40 children being cared for, at
the present time. and in addition to
the ordinary running expenses Of
providing for so many. further eX-
pense must be met in having the
entire southwest wall of the original
building torn down and repaired.
The wall has broken loose from
its old foundations, and an architect
who was called in consultation pro-
nounced it unsafe. and said that to
make it solid again. the entire wall
on that side Of the building must be
rebuilt.
The coal bill is another item of
tremendous expense. After getting
bids from various dealers on the
amount required to heat the build
ings through the winter months, it
was found that the bill would be
$1,000. The Home is maintained en-
tirely by voluntary contributions and
every one in San Antonio who is
interested in child welfare and we'll
being, is most cordially invited to at
tend the silver tea.
