The disastrous fire that ocenrred at the Orphan Home, I'arnell, 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 nccessit for Funds to provido 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.

I.— THE LOSS. Th» two Main Dormitories arc ab solutely destroyed, that is, the sleeping accommodation of over "0 children. In addition, the Quarters, Staff Diningroom, Sewing room, Seamstress' Bedroom and Ho*> I 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 be conveyed by mere words. 2.-NEW BUILDINGS. The matter of providing New Build ings has been receiving the carefu consideration ot the Hoard, as ap pears by tho last two annual re ports, and a New Buildings Fun has been created. In providing permanent accommod ation, the safety of the children is consideration of paramount import ance. and this can only be secured * Buildings of Stone or Brick. 3.—THE COST. Of such Buildings on modern lines i roughly estimated at from £SOOO t £7OOO, in addition to which it ma be necessary to purchase land. 4.-THE FINANCIAL POSITION. Tho income from the Board's Kn downionls is fullv absorbed in main mining the 89 children in the Home The nuiiib.-rs have increased sJ j) 31st Mnri-.i, I'JOO, by 28, and for th current year, owing to such increase the Board anticipates a debit balaiic of expenditure over receipts. Thi will, of course, be increased by th expenses inevitably attendunt upo the lire. ..To take any coraiderab) sum from the Capital for buildin purposes would very seriously hump er the work of the Home, ami preju dice the well-being of the children. THE APPEAL OF THE CIULDUEI For the sake of the good work done in past years, for the sake o tho larger work to be done now an in the years to come, and above all in the name of Christ, for the sak of His little ones, we appeal for help.
