Report of the Georgia Industrial
Home
To the members of this most worthy
organization, "The King’s Daughters," I
bring greetings and love from our large
family at the Georgia Industrial Home.
Ton are known in the history of this in
stitution as one of Us first and best!
friends, always interested in what we
are doing. It is indeed a great pleasure
to meet with you and give a report of
what is being done at the Georgia In
dustrial Home.
In looking back over the past several
years I feel very grateful for many
things. It is true there has been a
struggle, the way lias not been all sun
shine. There have been heartaches, dis
appointments, hard work, and sleepless
rights spent by the general manager and
his co-wokers. but through all this we
feel w f e have come out victorious and
are very thankful for what has been ac- i
eomplished.
There has been a steady development
along all lines and last year was con- j
sidered by the board of trustees, and by
those intimately connected with the
work as the crowning year in the his- j
torv of the Home.
This institution, the result of fifteen ,
years' of struggle and sacrifice on the,
part of the good people of Georgia, is:
now striving to its utmost to fulfill the j
mission for which it was created—;
namely, that of saving the destitute 1
children of Georg'a, not only those who
are orphans but those often worse than
orphans; children with immoral parents
and who are under vicious environment —
the nameless children. The Georgia In
dustrial Home recognizes the fact that
these children too, have minds and
bodies to train and souls to save. To ;
this end every effort is made to give
them what is rightfully theirs, physical- |
)y, intellectually, morally and spiritual- ,
ly. I
• The Home is now rariner for about 120 .
children—their apes ranging between ;
two nnrT sixteen, though the rules of the ;
Home do not provide frrr children under ■
four years of age. As n rule they are
well and happy. I doubt if you will rnd
a happier, better looking. better be- |
haved crowd of children anywhere in all
the world.
Realizing the great need of a strong
body in attaining a.life of. usefulness, the |
present management has at all t’-mes
laid great straps upon the health of the
children. Much good has been accomp
lished along this line—hundreds of
cases of hookworm have been successful
lv treated, quite a number have had ade
noids and tonsils removed, eyes and
teeth looked after, and several cases
of pellagra have been treated with satis
factory- results. Tn this way the health
conditions have so improved that last
year, with the exception of those dis
eases necessarily incident to chilhood,
there was very little sickness • and no
deaths. The drug and doctor bills com
bined amount to only- $97.50 for the* en
tTe vear. This good showing is largely
due to the faithful, earnest vfork .of our.
head matron Mrs. E. J. Hilton. Her lov
ing. sympathetic heart reaches out to
these little ones and with a mother s (
intuitive power and watchful eye she
sees the sMght ailments and corrects
them before they become serious. Tn |
other words, she ; s a mother to these
motherless children. Truly she has the
Master's spirit of ministering to the
needy.
Tn visiting the Home you will, I
know, he favorably impressed with the
snnitarv conditions of the grounds and
buildings. Visitors, almost without an
exception, express themselves as to the
cleanliness of every thing. This is al
ways very encouraging as great care is
being taken along this line. The chil
dren are taught not (o despise work.
The grls are taught to cook and serve
meals and to do all kinds of housework
in a neat and orderly Way. They at
tend to the milk and butter, and do all
♦he laundry work. The steam laundry
is verv nicelv equipped with the neces
sary machinery, a large new washing
machine having been installed a few
months ago. We also have now an
abundant supply of pure, clear water—
State President’s Report
Augusta. Ga., May 21st, 1914.
To the 18th annu-1 convention of the
Georgia Branch of The King's Daugh
ters and Sons.—Greetings:
The work for the Branch begun with
the close of our last convention In
Brunswick and your executive commit
tee met in the Oglethorpe Hotel, every
member present and each one taking her
port in the discussions. The outline
for the year's work was planned by
the request that the state should be di
vided Into districts and each member of
the committee taking a special field for
her work in expanding the order
throughout the length and breadth of
Georgia striving for a greater year than
ever before. This work of dividing the
state was done and each member as
signed a district being sent stationery,
literature and the request that work
should begin at once wdth an earnest
effort to expand. The results of this
effort our executive committee report
must show.
Two hundred and fifty cop’es of the
minutes of the convention in Brunswick
have been printed and distributed
throughout the state.
All requests for supplies and Informa
tion have been promptly answered. Galls
have been received and letters of greet
ing sent to many of the conventions of
th order. . . . .
No new circles have been organised
in the state this year, however. In re
cording the membership, your state
jTealdent does not find we have lost a
circle but our work seems In a dor
mant state. Are we neglecting the op
portunity at our door? The request was
made that each circle strive to report
to this convention a Junior Circle. I

a large tank holding 10,000 gallons of
water, having recently been erected.
The girls are also taught to sew. They
cut and make their clothes, do all the
mending for tire Home, make quilts and
do some, fancy work. We have at tlie
head of this department a most efficient
sewing room matron in Ml’s. Ormda
Vaster. Under her careful training the
girls have made marked progress. Her
economical disposition has led her to
use the smallest scraps. So nothing is
wasted or thrown away. Old clothing
that hns served its time as weaving ap
parel is ripped up, washed nice and
clean and made into good warm quilt* or
comforts.
Forty quilts were pieced and quilted
last year. We even have use for rags.
All that cannot be used after being ster
lized lit binding up outs, bruises, stump
ed toes, etc., are then cut Into strips,
tacked together and made into balls;
ready to be woven into rag rugs. All,
clothing donated to the Home is made,
over to fit the children when this is!
necessary.
Tlie four horse farm affords the boys
plenty of work and exercise necessary to
their physical development. The boys da
ail kinds of farm work. Mr. Armour,
the superintendent of the farm is a man
of unusual ability in the art of farm
ing and the agricultural training which
is given the boys is scientific and in
telligent. Each year we see a great
improvement in the farm and garden
work. East year by raising sufficient
hay and grain to feed the stock and by
the abundant supply of fresh vegetables
from the garden the expenses of the
Home were greatly reduced. It is ahe
opinion of the manager, and so express
ed in his annual report, that the Home
fared better last year and yet actually
spent less money than during any other
year in its history.
On account of the lack of proper
equipment the Home is unable to give
the boys anything other than an agri
culuratl training,-but it is the dream of
the management that there will some
day be a plant at the Georgia Industrial
Home making the Home true to Its
name,’ and when the Industrial features
will be broad and diversified.
Our school is doing nicely. We have
‘two teachers, Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Futch,
who devote their whole time to their
work. There is two sessions each day.
Tlie grades run from first to eighth.
There are now over a hundred children in
school. We have a nine-months term —
beginning on the fifteenth of September
and closing the fifteenth of June.
The hoys are anxiously looking for
ward to the close of school as the mana
ger promised to take those who have
been on good behavior for a week’s
camp near a good fishing pond. lam
glad to say that most of them will be
able to enjov this little outing.
. While the Georgia Industrial Home is
non-denominations 1 it is above all a
Christian Institution. In our chape!
hangs ths motto—“We have faith in God
and Humanity.” Upon this faith in
Gofl was the Georgia Industrial Home
founded and its purpose is not only to
g’ve •these dependent ■■children -the -phy-
I siotl and mental training necessary for
a fair chance in this earthly life, but
every opportunity is given them that
Ihey may grow in the knowledge of
Christian truth and, thereby, gain eter
nal fife. We begin each day with pray
er and Bible reading. Each session of
school is also opened with devotional
exercises. We have a splendid Sunday
school in which much good is being done
Twice each month, as many children as
two large two-horse wagons will ac
commodate, go to church. During the
past twelve months quite a number have
accepted Christ as their Savior and unit
ed themselves with the church.
And so we give thanks to our God for
His manv blessings upon us and our
work, and with the work of the past to
inspire us we look to the future with
hearts full of hope for even greater
things.
Respectfully submitted,
MRS. J .A. HARRIS.
♦ hem I earnestly beg your prayers and
co-operation.
With tlie able and willing assistance of
your faithful recording secretary, much
of the work in Georgia has been made
easy. To her Is due all honor and
credit. There has not been a request
which she has neglected a moment and
the work has been one of loving service.
Your county secretaries have sent in
better arranged and more complete re
ports this year than ever before. Your
state president feels that she can say
to you today, that It is her belief that
while wo have not gained numerically,
you nre better equipped for the work
than ever before. You have many who
are working Intelligently and the reward
for tills work will show in the future.
Ware county secretary has been called
to the presidency of her City Union and
her successor Mrs. A. Fleming, through
co-operation and assistance, has carried
on the work without a break.
The secretaries of both Chatham and
Richmond counties remain the same and
both have given ready and willing ser
vice whenever called unor..
If these officers left the responsibility
of the honor conferred upon them, and
the members would give to them the
consideration to which they are entitled,
your president believes our work would
advance more rapidly. Bet 11s renew
our determination to make the Georgia
Branch stronger and more zealous for
the stimulation of Christian activities. ]
Let us give more thought to Mrs phase
of our work. If we put the King first
we have His promise that whatsoever
we shall ask in His name, will be grant
ed. Then let us ask an abundant harv
est for Him during the year 1915.
In the plans for your program your
president wishes to say she has had the
most willing response from all who
have been requested to assist. Only
one has declined, that being occasioned
by conflicting dates. I wish specially
to say the Augusta members have

being made to make this magaslns meet

this, do so and see bow gladly space

support of the magazine Georgia now

The lack of greater development In
our Branch lias been a matter of deep
concern to your slate president. What
is the cause for this? Is it lack of self

City Union
The King’s Daughters of Augusta
welcome with joy the' convention to
our city and- pray that the blessing
of the King will rest upon us as
we work “In His Name.”
The City Union is composed of
members representing ten circles, the
members doing all in their power to
relieve the suffering and sorrow in our
city. The special work of the Union
is Travelers’ Aid, and this work has
far exceeded ouy expectation. Hun
dreds have been fed and clothed and
information and money given the de
serving. The work is supported by
the Union with the aid of the rail
roads, board of charities and various
organizations and the circles. The re
ceipts for the Travelers’ Aid for the
year are as follows:
Taken in from March Ist to
May Ist $786.99
Disbursements from March Ist
to May Ist 787.69
The Union receives valuable assis
tance from the Needle Work Guild,
this organization furnishes numerous
garments to the circles for distribu
tion, and the public schools at
Thanksgiving donate provision (or the
poor of our city.
Most of the circles have their spe
cial work, but the King’s Daughters
are always to be found wherever
there are sorrowing hearts to be
comforted or any work to do for the
Master.
The following is only a brief out
line of the year’s work for each cir
cle:
The Lucy Alexander Memorial and
the Mizpah Circles have as their spe
cial work the Mary Warren Home.
This home which bears the name of
one of the daughters of our King is
one of the most needful and beautiful
charities of our entire city. Here
these aged ones, often wearied with
life’s lonely journey find rest, comfort
and happiness. There are six old la
dies in the home now with 25 on the
waiting list, so you can see the neces
sity of a larger home.
The Lucy Alexander Memorial Cir
cle has held eight regular meetings
during the year, six new members
were added to their number and spe
cial efforts have been made by this
circle to Increase the building funl
for the Mary Warren Home. They
realize, as no one else can, the needs
for a largr home and have worked
earnestly for this cause. A barbecue
dinner was given bv this circle and
$315.7:5 was realized. At Thanksgiv
ing lovely baskets were sent to the
home and no one can imagine the/joy
o' these desolate hearts at such sweet
ahoughtfulness. This circle contrib
uted to the Silver Cross Cottage and
in numerous other ways helped in our
work.
The Mizpah Circle has held ten reg
ular meetings during the year and has
added eight new members to their
circle. The Mary Warren Home
their special work receives SIOO a
year from them. During the year this
circle has contributed sllO to the
building fund of the Mary Warren
Home. Contributed to the Margaret
Bottom Memorial, $5.00; the Silver
Cross Cottage, $2.00; by Mrs. Hol
lingsworth for charity, $15.00; local
charity, $15.00; floral designs during
the year, $8.00; expansion work,
$4.00; City Union dues, $1.80; state
and International dues, $10.50; con
vention fund. $10.00; cash given
away, $23.00 garment-: given away,
486; shoes given away, 21 pairs.
Income from all sources during the
year $187.14. This circle has a mem
bership of 42. During the year much
assistance has been given by this cir
cle to the poor at Christmas and at
Thanksgiving lovely baskets were
: tent out and many needy families
; rovided for.
The Wide Awake Circle has a mem
bership of 31, six new members were
, added during the year. The special
work of this circle has been the sup
port of a little child at the Children’s
Dome This home cares for little
children who have no other home anH
Is another beautiful charity in our
1 city. This circle has during the year
1 held several entertainments and very
gratifying sums were raised at each
Expended during the year $83.05.
The Burden Bearers' Circle has a
membership of 30. with an average
i attendance of seven. During the year
, $10.30 in payment for medicine was
contributed to the poor Visits made
bv members five Garments given
away 471 Fur suits of clothes,
nine hats, it pairs of shoes, fourteen
baskets were distributed to the poor
brinfc out tlie rolcl nuggets. It is faith
that unlocks our power and enables us
to use our ability, whether we succeed
or not is largely a question of self-faith
and endurance, of deserve and down
right hard work. There is no law by
which we may achieve success in any
thing without expecting it, demanding it,
assuming it. If we have great confi
dence in our ability and put a high esti
mate on ourselves. we set the current of
our thougha and our effort towards the
realization of tliese ideals. AH things
are possible to him who has faith, be
cause faith sees, recognizes the power
that means accomplishment. If we have
great faith in ourselves, If we believe in
ourselves, it a so helps others to think
well of us, to believe in us. Nothing is
so contagious ns our mental attitude.
Do not be afraid to demand great things
or ourselves for our life is grand or or
dinary, large or small, in proportion to
the insight and strength of our faith.
If we will place our trust in Clod and
ourselves we can remove the unountain
of difficulty which seems to arise before
us and our lives will be one triumphal
march tb the goal of our ambition. Re
member that we never grow beyond the
level for which we fit ourselves.
It is this self-faith that I crave for our
Georgia members which will make, of
our Branch all the King expects. There
is much work to he done and He depends
upon us. We must hot fall Him.
In closing this report I want to thank
you each one for the love and support
that you have given me always during
my administration and I shall always
remember you in my prayers that the
King, shall he very near you, that Jesus
Chr st shal Ibe your Ideal and tint your
work shall be with the one desire to
please Him In the service you render.
As we shall go out of this meeting I
shall, ask for your love and prayers to
go with me that I may be used for His
glory wherever my lot be cast, that be
cause of you I shall he a better,
stronger woman for the service God shall
require at my hands. May the God we
love and seVve guide and direct us with
wisdom In the work He would have us
do. Yours with love and loyalty,
