ORPHAN ENTERTAINMENTS.
Wishing to excite more interest
in the proper education of the
young, to explain the design and
management of the Orphan Work,
and to visit needy orphans by
the way-side, I. purpose to go
with a chapter of orphans from
the Orphan House at Oxford, and
give
FREE ENTERTAINMENTS
at the following times and places.:
Falls of lleiise, Wednesday, Oct. 10, at
7 p. m.
Brassflekls, Thursday, Oct. 11, at 11
a. in.
Bullocks, Friday, Oct. 12, at 11 a. iii.
These appointments have been
made after careful deliberation
and extensive correspondence.
But friends mati change the times
and places, provided I am duly
notified and there is no interfer
ence with the general schedule.
The party will need the usual
meals, and food foi three mules.
Where there are committees on
the Orphan Asylum, they will be
relied on to make all needed ar
rangements. In the absence ol
committees, other friends are re
quested to do so. A church, ora
large hall, should always be pre
ferred for the entertainments, that
the people may be comfortably
seated, and perfect oi der preserv
ed. J. II. Mills, Supt.
The orphans are divided into
Four Graded Forms, each in
charge of a teacher, whose report
is printed every fourth week
The highest number is 10; the
lowest is 1. When the average
is below 5, the orphan is liable to
be discharged as not “promising,”
and therefore excluded by the
egulations. This paper contains
the report made by the teacher
of the
TSItSESR rOKM.
—Rev. Thos. Ogburn preached
at the Orphan Asylum, last Sun
day afternoon, from the text, “Be
y’e therefore ready also ; for the
Son of man cometh at an hour
wlieu ye think not.” lie told the
children that the way to be ready
was to bo always doing the work
that God had appointed them to
do. Ilis sermon was solemn and
impressive, and rendered pecu
liarly appropriate on account of
the great mortality that has pre
vailed among children all over
the State for the past year. Mr
Ogburn is always eagerly' wel
comed at the Asylum, and all
were gratified at seeing him again
after bis long absence from us.
He will preach in the Asylum
Chapel the first Sunday in No
vember, at half past three o’clock.
Johnnie Grandy, aged five
years, youngest son of Mr. T. T. Gran
dy, of this place, died Friilay, Oct. 5,
Avitli niemhraiious croup. Scarcely a
fortnight ago Mr. Graudy’s family suf
fered a sore horcavemeiit, and in this
second affliction they have the syni^ja
thy of the entire comiimnity.
Died at his residence in this
place, Saturday, Oct. C, Mr. Ileiiry 0,
Hicks, aged 47 years.
Mr. Abram Slaughter of Berea,
accompanied by bis wife, paid a
visit to the orphans one day last
week. They seemed to enjoy
seeing the children and hear
ing them sing, and left some
fine fruit, both peaches and
apples, as a substantial token of
their good will toward the Insti
tiitlon. The good people of Berea
Jiave been very' kind to the or
phans; we are always glad to
have them visit us and become
personally acquainted with the
children, to whose wants they
have so often ministered.
Capt. A. Landis, Jr., has rc
Gcived his stock of fell and winter
goods. All in search of great bargains
and haiidsoine goods will -do well to
give him a call.
Two girls of Guilford county
bought a handsome Florence
sewing machine, and paid for it
in fruit dried by themselves du
ring the past summer.
“NO'S.' IF I’ff WAS MY IBOY.’
Some y'ears ago the late Hor

Deportment.—David Blythe, Galena
closed, in private conversation, a
gentleman rallied Mr. Mann upon
liis statement, and said to him :
“Did you not color that a lit
tle, when you said that all that
expense and labor would be re
paid if it only saved one hoy f”
“ Not if it ivas my hoyf was the
solemn and convincing reph'.
Ah ! there is a wonderful value
about “ My bo}'.” Other boys
may be rude and rough; other
boys may bo reckless and wild ;
other boys may seem to require
more pains and labor than they
ever will repaj'; other boys may
bo left to drift uneared for to the
ruin which is so near at hand;
but “ My boy ”—it were worth
the toil of a lifetime and the lav
ish wealth to save him from tem
poral and eternal ruin. We would
go the world around to save him
from peril, and would bless every
hand that was stretched out to
give him help or welcome. And
yet every poor, wandering, out
cast, homeless man, is one whom
soma fond mother called '‘My
hoy.” Every lost woman, sunken
in the depths of sin, was some
body’s daughter, in her days of
childish innocence. To-day some
body’s son is a hungry outcast,
pressed to the very verge of crime
and sin. To-day somebody’s
daugliter is a weary, helpless
wanderer, driven by necessity in
the paths that load to death. Shall
we shrink from labor, shall we
hesitate at cost when the work
before us is the salvation af a sold f
Not if it is “My hoynot if we
have the love of Him who gave
His life to save the lost.—The
Chi istlan.

Adopted Dec. 3d, 1875.
Resolved, 1. That St. Joint’s
College shall be made an asylum
for the protection, training and
education of indigent orphan chil
dren.
2. That this Graiid Lodge will
appropiate S annually foi'
the support of the institut'on ; but
will not assume any additional
pecuniary responsibility.
3. That this Grand Lodge elect
a Superintendent who shall con
trol the institution and solicit
contributions for its support from
all classes of our people.
4. That orphan children in the
said AsY’liim shall receive such
preparatory training and educa
tion as will prepare them for use
ful occupations and for the usiul
business transactions of life.
Adopted Dee. 5th 1875:
Resolved, That the Superiiiton-
(leiit of the said Orphan Asylum
shall I'eport at each Annual Com
munication an account of his
official acts, receipts, disburse
ment, number of pupils, &c.
together with such suggestions as
ho may see lit to offer.
As letter-writers, American girls
are inferior to the Canadian,
Scotcli, and Swedish, thinks
Wendell Phillips. This infenor-
it}', where it exists, comes from
the undue proportion of essays
on patience and odes to the moon,
tolerated in compositions at
school. Art commences with let
ter-writing, and the instruction
should begin in the common
school. Of course, such work is
not to he expected where the
teacher’s chair is offered to the
lowest bidder.—National Teachers'
Monthly.
