The Georgia Industrial Home for
orphan children, located at Macon,
is in dire need for the necessities of
life to supply the one hundred and
more orphan inmates of the home.
This institution was founded by the
late Dr. Mumford and for many years
it was known as the Mumford Home.
During Dr. Mumford’* life time, he
was able to keep it going and care
for the children. However, since his
death, the number of orphan chil
dren gaining admission to the Home
has increased and the receipts for
its support have not increased ac
cordingly. The time has arrived
when immediate relief must be given
this institution or else It* doors will
be forced to close and the orphans
turned • ut in the world on the mercy
of the public. Such n condition
would t a calamity for these chil
dren; it must not occur. In speak
ing of the financial straits in which
the Home is in. J. A. Harris, general

;o turn away more than three hun
dred children last year, and almost
daily we are confronted by poverty
stricken children begging to be ad
mitted to our home.
“We want the public to know this
is an unusual situation.”
We cannot imagine a greater
catastrophe that would come to these
children. The churches and the pub-
lie should take .a hand in this relief
work and see to it that a sufficiency
of funds is provided to meet the
needs of this most worthy and deserv

Remittances of contributions
should be made to the Georgia In

the life of an undernourished and
