Plans Building Program

Mrs. w. G. Whitehead, president
of the Board of Directors of the
Catharine Kennedy Home for aged
white women, announced yesterday
that a campaign is now under way
to raise a 100000 building fund
for the erection, Sin normal times"
of a new and modern home.
Because of increased appica-
tons, and a permanent waiting list
Mrs. Whitehead said, and because
one of the buildings is not suited
as home for aged, there being
two flights of stairs to climb and
many other defects, the Board felt
it advisable to raise building
fund. The present home is located
at SOB and 905 Princess street, and
is the only such institution for
white aged in the county, and one
of the few in the State. Tentative
plans for the new building call for
approximately rs resident rooms,
and the home will house both men
and women.
At present there are 30 residents
in the home, which is run by a
matron under the direction of the
Board of Directors, which meets
monthly, keeping in close touch
with the affairs at all times, Mrs.
Whitehead said. To be eligible to
become a life resident and receive
the benefits of the home, an ap-
plicant has to be a resident Of
New Hanover county for at least
five years preceding her appliea-
ton
The history of the home goes
back to 1879 when the Ladies Be-
nevolent Society purchased small
house in an obscure part of town
and used it for a home for aged
women. The home was called The
Old Ladies Rest and there were
six residents In 1893, the Associat-
ed Charities was formed, and the
Ladies Benevolent Society turned
