George Stephens at Use union tabernacle Sunday morn ing in commenting upon the fine ap pearance of children from the Metho dist orphanage at Raleigh. He said he does not like the word orphanage, but prefers to call such an institution a "home", and those children, he said, had the appearance of coming from a rcai home. In this connec tion he urged liberal support of such institutions and said that it did his heart good on the first Sunday in this month, "orphan's Sunday", to learn what a magnificent contribu tion was made for the orphanage of that church by the Sunday school of the First Baptist church. Maybe he does not know that that Sunday school has for years held the world's record for contributions for the sup port of orphans, and that, In fact, this is an "orphanage town," all the Ideal churches contributing with re markable liberality toward support of such institutions.
