the urgent request of the boara

assistant superintendent of the or-

needed." "
Dr. M. Hinnant of Micro, chair-
i man of the board. Indicated that
bis group will choose a successor
, at ' once with installation of the
new superintendent expected to
S take place at special ceremonies
I' to be held at the Orphanage here
f on May 1.
Speaking for the board. Dr. Hhv
nant expressed regret at losing the
services of Smith, whose adminis
tration during the 35 year history
of the orphans' home which serves
' all of the nearly 300 Free Will Bap
tist churches in North Carolina.
The local orphanage, he pointed'
or;thTur"gPethe"threea and Tha1
years Smith has been its head
with unprecedented progress being
chalked up on most every hand. .
Highlighting Smith's achieve
ments has been a huge and sus
tained building program, valued
at nearly $200,000, which has given
tne orphanage a new church.
a
new girls' dormitory, a renovated
kitchen, and a remodelled old
SodormiSry.'ThU
il-i ... rfnr
has included thousands of dollars'
worth of new equipment, extensive
improvements of the 270 acre farm,
and various other improvements.
Smith's first step in this area
was to raise money to pay off a
long outstanding indebtedness of
dO fWt knnninn mmf tha institution
and incurred in building the boys'
dormitory. He then was successful
in obtaining the $50,000 necessary
to complete the new church which!
had been started several years be-'
hi H in BettinB tho $75..
fore his era and in getting the $75,
COO required to construct the new
girls' dormitory.
A "friend of the home" and a
personal friend of Smith's, who
never revealed his identity, gave
substantial amounts not only to all
of these projects but also financed
the rntiie cost of the renovation of
the kitchen.
Officials of the board also point
td out that Smith had brought
about significantly closer relations
with the nearly 50.000 members of
the Free Will Baptist churches in
this State. As a direct result of
this improved relationship, the fi
nancial support of the home by
member churches has reached a
new all-time high, they reported.
"The support financial and ma
terially from all of our churches
has almost doubled during the past
three years," Smith reported.
Closer contact has been promoted
between the home and the FWB
member churches by expanding
the summer concert program to in
clude more churches, by improving
and expanding the monthly publi
cation of the home, "The Young
People's Friend,' and by closer and
more extensive direct and personal
relations with FWB ministers.
Smith has placed the operations
ol the farm on a new level, improv.
ine its pqui"",ont, promoting a pro
gram of wider diversified and
greatly stepping up a "live-at-home"
program by which the home
is seeking to be as self-sufficient
as possible. Today there is a large
herd of purebred beef cattle, a
large herd of improved-type hogs,
a large poultry flock increased ac-refx-f-s
;n gardens and pastures, and
a greatly increased storage of
meats and vegetables in local freez
er plants.
Closer contacts and assistance of
former students and graduates of
the home have also been promoted
by Smith with special emphasis be
ing placed upon an improved alumni
association and the annual home
coming which is held on the first
Sundav in May. A program has also
been initiated looking toward the
greater support of graduates who
ae"k "nUege and business education.
Smith has also stocked the fish
pond with thousands of young fish,
after improving the pond which was
given the home by Dr. Hinnant.
Smith, a 50 year old native of
Wayne County wh came to the
orphanage from Duplin County
where he had been for several
years as a FWB minister and busi
nessman, said that he could not
"have carried on without the con
stant assistance of Mrs. Smith who
has been by my side in all under
takings." Smith and his wife, known fa
miliarly as "Pa and Ma" Smith to
the nearly 100 children at the home,
had spent nearly 25 years of mar-
ried life without children. They
have always wanted children of
tbeir own. they said, and their
constant aim has been to treit their
many young charges as if they
were their very own.
The children have responded with
genuine love and resnect for "Pa"
and "Ma" Smith and visitors at
the home have easily and invariably
noted the atmosphere of sweet
understanding and tender affection
existing between the Smiths and
their children.
The Smiths are expected to re
turn to Duplin County where Smith
will re-enter the active ministry ana
resume business activities. Mrs.
Smith is a native of Duplin, and
he and her husband had moved
to Beulaville in 1934.
In Middlesex, the Smiths had be
come active citizens of local and
School activities. Smith served as
secretary of. the local school board
'while Mrs. Smith served as presi
dent of the local PTA for a while.
"There have been several of our
students who have graduated and
gone on during our stay here,"
Smith reported, "and to us all of
them are outstanding." . . ? . .'. !
"K bas thrilled us when-th
phone rang 'and one of our former
students would say, 'please mee:
me at the train or bus station,' 1
am coming home'. Smith observed;
' "We were especially pleased by thflO
fact that si or tuem preierrea w
spend )ast Christmas with us." j-.
- fOur greatest reward has been
hi ottfttide of our children." "Ma"
Smith said. .They seem to be hap
1 py Md to love. ecb other and us.
f We feel that their attitude ana ax-
faction are the, greatest reward
anyone could ask for.''
"Unon takinavasri leave, our ad
vice to the chfldfce is. accept and,
follow the feacnHgl received In this
institutiea.". b Smiths concluded.
"To irj ssUf ft flftfs we say. "work

that the-erpaanag is for the child.
