things we feel in our hearts.
Methodist Provide for Orphans
|WIACO, Nov. 25—(Special) Cul-
minating' the most outstanding
year of more than half a century
and launching the drive for funds
to finance next year’s budget, the
Methodist Home here will dedi-
cate five new buildings on its
campus Friday, Nov. 28. Bishops
A. Frank Smith of Houston and
Ivan Lee Holt of Dallas will take
leading parts on the program, and
more than 2000 out-of-town visi-
tors are expected from the six
conferences of Texas and New
Mexico which support the home.
The affair begins with a bar-
becue on the Home campus at
noon, the dedicatory service fol-
lowing at 1:30 p.m. Each new
building will then be opened, its
donors and the boys and girls
who are to live in it serving as
welcoming committee and guides.
Four of the new structures are
residences, furthering Superinten-
dent Hubert Johnson’s long time
dream of doing away with dormi-
tories and transforming the or-
phanage into a group of homes,
each with its own house mother,
its own dining room, kitchen and
bedrooms, so that children may
be brought up in an atmosphere
as near like actual home life as
possible. Half the Home’s 400
■children are now living in cottag-
es. The fifth building is an infirm-
ary.
Donors are Mr. and Mrs. J. J.
Perkins of Wichita Falls, who
are giving a second cottage for
girls after two years ago giving
a home for senior girls: Mr. and
Mrs. J. S. Bidwrell of Wichita
Falls, a boys’ home; Mr; and
Mrs. T. C. Mitchell of Marfa, a
girls’ home; the late Mr. andi
Mrs. H. A. Wiliams of Ft. Worth,
who will be represented by rela-
tives, a boys’ home; R. P. Willis
Sr., of Atlanta and the late Mrs.
Willie Willis, who gave the infirm-
ary. This building has been fur-

After the dedication, there will
be an evening session of the 48
district superintendents of the
Texas and! New Mexico conferenc-
es. They will discuss the budget
campaign, due to be held in all
Methodist churches during the
month of December. The Home,
existing for more than half a cen-
tury without endowment, has re-
lied on free will offerings for
support during its entire history.
Because of the limited budget all
buildings have been donated by
private individuals, 1941 marking
an all time high in gifts of this
nature to the Home.
