Elaborate plans had been made for this celebration, and we were looking forward to having a large I crowd of friends and patrons and former children with us on the 22nd of August. We regret very much to have to call off the meet ing, but it seems the only wise thing to do. The day with its program had been planned for fun, frolic and fellowship. And the children were counting much on the picnic din ner. But in connection with all this, which we will miss very much, the friends of the Home were asked to bring with them a silver offering amounting to at least a penny per year for the number of years they have lived. Nothing need be lost in this part of the plans for that day; for the friends of the Home who appre ciate the work the Home has done and is doing for orphan children can just as easily send their of fering as to bring it. We shad miss your presence but will ap preciate your gifts. _T h e Methodist Protestant Children’s Home, High Point, N. C. By A. G. Dixon, Superintendent. w. C.
