N. M c A rthur Re-Elected Congressman TO ESTABLISH HOME FOR HOMELESS WAIFS It is planned to establish a farm home in Benton tyiunty, near the stato ' agricultural college, where homeless and dependent waifs may be given home training under all home influences. There they will receive the best of moral, educa tional and physical advantages. The W. C. T. U. has formed a special corporation under the laws of the state to inaugurate and op erate a farm home of this charac ter. Governor Ben W. Olcott has given the movement his stirring en dorsement. Welfare workers in every part of the state have lauded the W. C. T. U. for its humanitarian efforts. It has been estimated that $125,- <»00 will be needed to put this farm home in operation. The local quota has not been announced, but »it will lie comparatively small The local branch is confident that the good, broad-hearted people of this com munity will over subscribe to this fund when the drive gets under way. The movement for the establish ment of a farm home for dependent and orphan children originated with tlfe Woman’s Christian Tem perance Union, and so enthused was it over the possibilities of an insti tution of thiÿ kind that the state organization of the W. C. T. U. de cided to zmakr it» one of the «it achievements before the close of the present year. The drive will begin November 15. » LAURELWOOD M. E. CHURCH Rev.
