The disastrous fire that ocetirred at the Orphan Home, rarnell, Auckland on Sunday, September 17, will b fresh in the minds of the readers o this paper. This appeal is intended to make plain the extent of the loss, its effect upon the present condition of tho children, and the urgent necessit for Funds to provide adequately an wisely for their future welfare. Children from the districts wher this paper circulates have from tim to time been cared for in the Home which has, therefore, a particular a well as a general claim upon you sympathies. 1.-TIIE LOSS. Tho two Main Dormitories are ab solutely destroyed, that is, the sleeping accommodation of over 70 cJiildren. In addition, the Matron's Quarters, Staff Diningroom, Sewing room. Seamstress' Bedroom ami Hospital are totally destroyed, and, besides this, a considerable quantity ot Clothing and Furniture has been lost What this means to the children an to the matron and her stall can hardly bo conveyed by mere words. 2.—NEW BUILDINGS. Tho matter of providing New Build ings has been receiving the carefu consideration of the Hoard, as ap pears b.v tho last two annual re ports, and a New Buildings Fun has been created. In providing permanent accoinmod ation, the safety of the children is consideration of paramount import ance. and this can only be secured i Buildings of Stono or Brick. 3.—THE COST. Of such Buildings on modern lines 1 roughly estimated at from £SOOO t £7OOO, in addition to which it ma be necessary to purchaso land. 4.—THIS FINANCIAL POSITION. Tho income from the Board's En dowments is fully absorbed In main taining the 89 children in the Home The numbers have increased sir .*4 31st March, 1905, by 28, and for th current year, owing to such increase tho Board anticipates a debit balanc of expenditure over receipts. Thi will, of course, be increased by th expenses inevitably attendant upo tho Ore. -To take any considerabl sum from the Capital for buildin purposos would very seriously hanip er the work of the Home, ami preju dice the well-being of the children. THE APPEAL OF HIE CIIILDIIEI For the sake of the good work done in past years, for the sake o "STlarger work to be done now an in the years to come, and above all in tho name of Christ, for the sak of His little cues, we appeal for help.
