Over five thousand have been cared for and trained. Its graduates and for mer pupils are in all walks of life and there is no record of a former pupil having been convicted and sen tenced for committing a major crime in North Carolina. It Is the oldest Orphanage in the States and receives children other than thoee of member ship of the supporting order. At the present time leas than forty per cent of the population of the Orphanage is of Masonic parentage. The home possesses valuable build ings, grounds and equipment and khs had no operating defielt for several years. ' The annual budget of the Orphan age calls for an expenditure of flM, 500.00. This provides shelter, cloth ing, end food, recreation, heat, light,\ books, school supplies, health pro gram, staff of trained workers, voca tional training in several depart ments, laundry, repairs and upkeep to grounds, building and equipment and experienced case work for a family of 808 children. Liberal gifts are needed this year for operating expenses in order to maintain the Home and provide emer gency repairs. The Oxford Orphanage is mors than a philanthropy?it is an invest ment is the lives of North Carolina boys, and girls who would not other wise have a chance. It pays to the State and. its citizenship the high dividends in character and trained young people. It is an opportunity today for North Carolina citizens to express in ? substantial way their desire to help others. The orphanages of the state use the Thanksgiving season as an occa sion to appeal to the dtlsens of the State for so much needed assistance. The Oxford Orphanage is open for visitors each day and hundreds of North Carolina citizens visit this his toric spot every year. Bib trefoil, a new legume for North Carolina is working wonders on the Tidewater Experiment-Station at Ply mouth. "Right now it is even better than Ladino clover," says Dr. Boy Loworn of State College. ^AutbOtlyOtt m Sfce 0U?UU < {tie S/ottfi * 100 PROOF most important of aii cars to you are... . ? ?

Its length is ten inches and the ipper plumage is colored chestnut and dadt, ashy and tawny mixed. The ower feathers are shades of brown vith black marks. Feathers of "the sown are somewhat erectile. The nest, generally found in open Held, is on the ground under old fences which are sheltered by thick prcwths of grass or small bushes, or it the top of a stump. Grasses, leaves uid weed stalks form the nest into rhich from twelve to eighteen pure rhite eggs are laid. The call of the Bob-white is one of he cheeriest sounds in Nature. It is lleaaing, heartening, delightful. By t this bird has named itself. Fsrm nrs translate it as "more wet" saying hat it foretells rain. Perhaps there is no other yrild bird ? which the American people are note indebted. It delights in the farm; ia the Mend and companion oi man, is a. destroyer of weeds and pernicious insects, is a close-lying, swiftly flying game bird, and last as well as least, is the Joy of the epicure. From the standpoint -of the greatest good to the greatest number he is supreme. After the spring rains the birds begin mating. They are good-natured, affectionate birds until the mating season when the . males are quarrel some and sometimes fight fiercely. After the mating is over, the happy pairs settle down. The male is very attentive to his mate, is a provider and has been known to assume the entire charge of the brood upon the death of the female?brooding, fee ing and protecting them at all timet like a fond mother. It is quite as important to see that the foods the binds require at differ ent seasons of the year, are plentiful and that they have proper oovers and protection, as it is to control their enemies. Several bird houses were built by the members. .1 ' 1 ' ' 1 ? M STATEMENT IMPERIAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AsheviDe, N. C.
