The Orphan Home, Parnel, Auckland. APPEAL. Tho disastrous firo that occurred at tho Orphan Home, Parnell, Auckland on Sunday, September 17, will be fresh in the minds of the rcadm-s of this paper. This appeal is intended to mnk« plain tho extent of the loss, its effect upon the present condition of tho children, and the urgent necessity for Funds to provide adequately and wisely for their future welfare. Children from the districts where this paper circulates havo from time to time Iwen cared for in the Home, which has, therefore, a particular as well ns a general claim upon your sympathies. 1.-THE LOSS. The two Main Don solutely destroved, thj f over 70 civilthe Matron's dren. In addition, the Matron's Quarters, Staff Diuingrooin, Sewing room, Scu/iistress' Dedroom and Hospital are totally 'destroyed, ami, bc- 0 sides this, a considerable quantity of Clothing and Furniture has been lost. What this means to the children and to tho matron ami her stall can l hardly be conveyed by mere words. 2.-XEW III.'ILIHXGS.

The minilx'i's have increased since , illst March, 1905, by 28, and for the 1 current year, owing to such increase, tho Hoard anticipates a debit balance 1 of expenditure over receipts. This will, ol course, be increased by the expenses inevitably attendant upon tho fire. ..To take any considerable sum from the Capital for building purposes would very seriously hamper tho work of the Home, and prejudice the well-being of the children. The New Building Fund Account now stands at £lllO. . Tho Insuranco on the lluilding destroyed is £1250. I Amount available is XL'.'IGO. Rough estimate ol amount still required for iiuikling is £4(>4o The Home has not received any Government subsidy for the last twenty years. It has been already stated that the Hoard had 'begun to form a Building Fund. Had it proved necessary tc mako a Public Appeal, in tho future, for that fund, the amount asked for would have been coinparitivoly small NOW THEItE IS NO ALT-ERNA-NATIVE : THE AprEAL HAS TO GO FORTH TO-DAY FOR AT LEAST £ s(m THE APPEAL OF THE CHILDREN For the sake of the good work done in past years, for the sake of tho larger work to be 'done now and in the years to come, and above all, in the name of Christ, for the sake of His little dies, we appeal for help.
