Thoughts of the large family
at the Oxford Orphanage begin
to turn towards the Thanksgiving
season when- thousands of Ma
sons and other friends annually
give generously of their means tr
the welfare of boys and girls who
need and so well deserve them.
#This is of the utmost importance
in these young lives.
The Oxford Orphanage for
three-quarters of a century has
specialised in every phase of
properly rearing orphaned chil
dren. Its contribution of more
than 6,000 well-equipped and
worthy young men and women to
good citizenship is a living testi
monial to the Importance and
usefulness of the institution
whose sole object is to serve.
The Grand Lodge of Masons
owns and operates the Oxford
Orphanage, but has never re
stricted its service to the? chil
dren of Masons. Eighty-nine per
cent of the 'children in the insti
tution are of non-Masonic parent
age. At Oxford the question of
parentage yields to the need of
the child. That is the decisive
argument.
The need of Orphanages today
for greater support is pressing.
They must have more money?
or else. You know what that
means.
Superintendent Gray is forced
by circumstances to stress in
creased donations this Thanks
giving. The expense of operating
the Oxford Orphanage has been
Trowing every year and now is
at a peak. When one thinks of
the multiplicity of service the in
stitution has to perform, it is
enough to open the hearts and
purses of benevolent men and
women. Here is a partial list of
the kinds of service imperatively
demanded: shelter, clothing
food, recreation, heat, light
books, school supplies, health
programs, athletic equipment,
staff of trained workers, voca
tional training in several depart
ments, laundry, repairs and up
keep of grounds, buildings and
equipment, experienced case
work, and so on.
There is no economy in neg
lect. When we do not pay froir
the heart, often we have to pay
"through the nose." Juvenile de
'Inquency is an acute problem of
the times. Its prevalence is de
plorat le. The Orphanage helps
materially in the solution of this
social problem by rearing and
raining children who otherwise
would not have a chance. If it dio
no more than this, the Orphan

It's Hog Killing
Time In Wilkes
N. W. Pierce, who lives
near this city on North Wil
kesboro route three, started
off the hog killing chores in
Wilkes several days ago and
the recent cool weather has
spelled the doom of many
fine porkers. In the top pic
ture Mr. Pierce is, shown
dressing out his 456-pound
porker less than one year-old.
Tills hog had 90 pounds of
lard. At the same time Carl
Potest, Mr. Pierce's neighbor,
butchered a good porker,
shown below, with a dressed
weight of 340 pounds and
about the same age. Mr. Pierce
attributes his remarkable suc
cess to use of Purina hog feed.

"Gratitude is a species of jus
tice" said a wise man. Our fore-1
bears so interpreted it when A

Who is there who should not |
feel a deep sense of gratitude?
Express your gratitude a t
Thanksgiving by a generous do

November 6-13 Is
Optimist Week
The week of November 6 to
13, 1949 has been designated as
Optimist Week and will be cele
brated locally by the Optimist
Clnb of North Wilkesboro accord
ing to B. R. Eller, president of |
the local service club.
"Now that the first postwar
flurries have died down and we
are settling down to a normal
economic existence again," said
Mr. Eller, we are going to renew
our efforts to place the burden
of responsibility for the next
generation of leaders on the
shoulders where it belongs?eve
ry person in this community."
Mr. Eller explained that the
theme for the 1949 Optimist ob
servance is "Responsibility"?
and that the service club would
press its efforts to the end that
every segmeift of the community
recognize the importance o f
youth welfare and rehabilitation.
Mindful of their slogan "Friend
To The Boy," Optimist Clubs
throughout the United States and
foreign countries have accomp
lished much in their work to curb
juvenile delinquency and to de
velop and train boys for the ob
ligations of manhood.
