TO AID THE ORPHANS
Tomorrow a street day will be held in Wellington in aid of the homes and orphanages conducted by the Church of England in the Wellington diocese. The work of the church in this form of Christian social service is far more extensive than most people realise There are homes providing motherly care and later sound training for children from babyhood until the boys or girls are equipped to earn their own livelihood. Even then they are encouraged, and many of them are glad, to seek the advice and wise guidance of those who have trained them for life's battles. In these times of stress the financial problems of homes and orphanages are great—costs are rising, and there are many calls upon public generosity. An appeal is therefore made to the public to support tomorrow's collection generously. The assurance is given that every penny collected will be used for the benefit of the homes and orphanage*-
