The Orphan Home, Pannell, Auckland. appeal. lhe disastrous fire that occurred at tho Orphan Homo, FamoU, Auckland on Sunday. September 17, will be fresh in tho minds of the readers of this paper. This appeal is intended lo make plain the extent of the loss, its ef. ioct upon the present condition of tho children, end the urgent necessity for Funds to provide adequately and wisely for their future "welfare. ' Children from the districts where this paper circulates have from time lo time been cared for in the; Home, which has, therefore, a particular as well as a general claim upon your sympathies. 1 —THE LOSS. The two Main Dormitories are absolutely destroyed, that is, the sleeping accommodation of over 7U children. In addition, the Matron's Quarters, Staff iJiningroom, Sewing room, Seamstress' Bedroom and llos-. pital are totally destroyed, and, besides this, a considerable quantity of Clothing awl Furniture has been lost. What this means to the children and to the matron and her stall can hardly be conveyed by me/e words. 2.—NEW BUILDINGS. Tho matter of providing New Buildings has been receiving the careful consideration of tho Board, as appears by tile last two annual reports, -and a New Buildings Fund has been created. In providing permanent, accommodation, the safety of the children is a consideration of paramount import 4 unco, and this can only be secured in Buildings of Stone or Brick. 3.—THE COST. Of such Buildings cn modern linos is roughly estimated at from £SOOO to £7OOO, in addition to which it may be necessary to purchase land. 4.—'TIJE FINANCIAL POSITION. Tho income from the Board's Endowments is fully absorbed in maintaining tho 8 ( J children in the Home. The numbers have increased since :Ust March, l ( J0o, by 28, and for the current year, owing to such increase, the Board anticipates a debit balance of expenditure over receipts. This will, of course, be. increased by the expenses inevitably attendant upon the fire. .To take any considerable sum from the Capital for building purposes would very seriously hamper the work of the Home, and prejudice the well-being of the children.

The New Building Fund Account now stands at j;iUO. The insurance on the IJnilding destroyed is £12.">0. Amount available is JL2'»r.O. Kough esh'male of amount still required for Building is £l6-10 The Homo hns not received any Uoveriniieiit subsidy for the last twenty years. It lias been already staled fhat the Board had bc*gun to form n Building Fimd. Had it proved necessary te make a I'ublie Appeal, in 1b; 1 future, for lhat fund, the amount asked for would have compariUvely small NOW TIJKKK IS NO AI/PFKXANATIVK : TIIF AI'PFAL HAS TO GO FOJiTJi TO-ItAY FOIi ATuem £sooo* 'I lIK Ai'l'KAi.
