APPEAL. The disastrous fire that occurred at tho Orphan IJoine, Parocll, Auckland on Sunday, September 17, will b Iresh in Iho minds of the readers o this paper. This appeal is intended to make plain the extent of the loss, its effect upon tho present comliticn ot tho children, and the urgvnt necessity for Funds to provide adequately an wisely for their future welfare. Children from the districts wher this paper circulates have from tini to time been caied for in the Home which has, therefore, a particular a well as a general claim upon you sympathies. I.—THE LOSS. Tli„ two Main Dormitories arc ab solutely destroyed, that is, the sleeping accommodation of over 70 children. In addition, the Matron's Quarters, Staff l>iuingroom, Sewing room, Seamstress' Bedroom and ncapital are totally destroyed, and, b. sides this, a considerable quantity oi Clothing and Furniture has been lost Wliat this means to the children an to tie matron and her stall can hardly be conveyed by mc/e words. 2.-NEW BUILDING S. The matter of providing Xew Iluild lugs has licmi receiving the catefu consideration of the Hoard, as ap pears b.v Hie last two annual re ports, and a New Buildings Kun has been created.

In providing permanent uccommod ntion, tlio safety of the children is consideration o! paramount import ancc. and this can only be secured i buildings of Stonu or IJrick. 3.—TIIE COST. Of such lluiUlings on modern lines i roughly estimated at from JuiiOOO t £7UCfI, in addition to which it ma 1)6 necessary to purchase land. ■t.-TIIE FINANCIAL POSITION. Tho income I'oin the Hoard's Kn dowmcnts is fully absorbed in main 1 aining tho B'J children in the Home The numbers have increased si s ;tlst March, 1005, by 28, and for th current year, owing to such increase the Hoard anticipates a debit balanc of expenditure l)V, ' r receipts. Thi will, of course, be increased by th expenses inevitably attendant upon tho lire. .To take any considerabl sum from the Capital for building purposes would very seriously hamp er the work, of the Home, and preju dice the well-being of the children.

The New Building Fund Accouo now stands at £lllO. The insurance on the Building des troyed ie £l2r>o. Amount available is £2360. Rough estimate of amount still required for Building is £4640 The Home has not received any Government subsidy for the last twenty years. It has been already stated that th Hoard had begun to form a liuiidin Fund. Had it proved necessary t make a Public Appeal, in the future for that fund, the amount asked fo would have been cotnpariLively small NOW TIJKIUO IS NO ALTKKNA NATIVE: TUB A ITEM, HA; TO GO FOIiTII TO-IVY I'OH £SOO.
