BRTHDAY BREKS SOUGHT BY HONE Episcopal Children’s Refuge Appeals for Financial Sup- port by Plan. With the new Episcopal Home for Children well under way at Nebraska avenue and Rock Creek Ford road, in Chevy Chase, an appeal for financial support. through a plan of “bricks for birthdays” was issued yesterday by Mrs. David Meade Lea, president of the board of lady managers, at a meeting in Epiphany Hall. Mrs. Lea celebrated her birthday by the building fund by donating bricks, * to_100,000. » e A Foundations for three of the new buildings in the oot unit plan have been completed and ural steel work is well under way. Two other build- ings will complete the group of five, ac- cording to the plans of the architect, bul the board is especially desirous of push- ing the work forward so it 50 children living in the old home in Ana- costia may be moved into the new build- ings as soon as possible. There is a long waiting list at present for entrance in the home and vacancies left by children leaving to go to work after graduation from elementary schools are filled imme- diately. Right Rev. James E, freeman, Bishop of Washington, has urged the people ot w-uhmgwn to help push forward the work of building. Nine acres of land were given by an anonymous donor, and the money for three of-the buildings is in hand. “Through individua) gifts and endowments, the building committee, of which Charles J. Bell was chairman up to the time of his death, hopes to have the home ready for occupancy by Fall. | Mrs. Charles J. Bell recently was ap- Dn‘l'nu'd a member of the building com- | mittee.
