The Oxford Orphanage at Ox- J
ford, North Carolina, has a record
of sixty-seven years of service to j
the children of North Carolina, i
Over 6,000 have been cared for
and trained and the Home is fill-!
ed to capacity all the time and has
a waiting list. Its graduates and
former pupils are in all walks of
life and there is no record of a
former pupil having been convict- j
ed and sentenced for committing
a major crime. It is the oldest or
phanage in the State and the only
fraternal order orphanage in the
United States that receives child
ren other than those of the mem
bership of the supporting order. 1
At the present time 50% of the
population of the Orphanage is of
Masonic parentage. The Home
possesses valuable buildings,
grounds and equipment and has
had no operating deficit for sev
eral years.
The annual budget of the Or
phanage calls for an expenditure
of $170,000.00. This provides
shelter, clothing, food, recreation,
heat, light, books, school supplies,
health program, star of trained
workers, vocational training in
several departments, laundry, re
pairs and upkeep to buildings,
grounds and -equipment, and ex
perienced case work for a family
of more that) S30 children.
During, this year much needed
repairs and replacements have
been made in an effort to provide
more comfortable living quarters
for the children and enable the
Orphanage to continue its hi^h
standard in the country as an
agency for care and training.
Better living facilities have
been provided in all the cottages
and every effort has been made to
make conditions more home-like. ,
Superintendent C. K. Proctor
announces that the sum of $12.
^00.00 is needed this year in ad
dition to operating expenses in
order to provide for the repairs!
and improvements that have been
mnde.
The Oxford Orphanage is more
than a philanthropy ? it is ail in
vestment in the lives of North
Carolina boys and girls Who would
not otherwise have a chance. It
pays to the State and its citizen
ship the high dividends in charac
ter and trained young people. It
Is an opportunity today for North
Carolina citizens to express in a
substantial way their desire to
help others. j
The orphanages of the Slate use j
the Thanksgiving season as an dc- (
casion to appeal to the citizens of
the State for much needed assis
tance. The Superintendent of the
Oxford Orphanage announces that
the Home is open for visitors each
day and hundreds of North Caro
lina citizens visit this historic j
spot every year.

Oats For Corn
Shortage
Farmers in this sectioiV who
face a probable shortage of corn
this season because of unfavor
able weather, can sow tall oats
and thereby avoid having to buy
feed next spring, according to
William E. Adams. Assistant
Agronomist of the Soil Conserva
tion Service in the Franklin
County Work Unit of the Tar
River Soil Conservation District
at Franklinton.
In the sowing of fall oats max- I
lmum protection against erosion
can be secured by setting up a
strip rotation, it is pointed out.
A desirable strip rotation can be
established by sowing each third
terrace interval to oats and fol
lowing the oats with lespedeza
or some other summer legume.!
The two intervening terrace in- 1
trvals can be planted to winter |
iegumeB. followed by row crops.
This will provide a two-year ro
tation on terrace intervals devoted
to row crops.
? Upon completion of the rota
tion, according to Adams, the
grain strip can be moved either
up or dow nhill, again using each
third terrace interval for grain
and summer legumes.
Where machinery is used for
harvesting grain, two or more
adjacent terrace intervals may be
used and the same rotation put
into effect. Such rotations pro-|
vide for maximum use of legumes
for soil building.
