SUCCESS OF HOSTEL
A hostel opened by the Anglican Church, to provide a transit home for teen-agers requiring social reorientation and the help of a Christian atmosphere, was fulfilling its purpose, the Rev. R. F. N. Thompson said yesterday. Since the opening six months ago, about 30 had been through the hostel, he said. It can accommodate a maximum of seven, who receive full board and personal advice and counselling when wanted from the couple who run the hostel. . When the young men leave the hostel they are helped to find other accommodation and suitable employment.
