'J, E. Klingberg Reports on { Work of the Past Year An idea of what an important rolé the Children's Home plays in this city can be gleaned from the report of ‘Rev. J. E. Klingberg made at the an- nual meeting of the officers last eve- ning at the Rackliffe Heights site, of the proposed new building. The re- port shows that the contributions to this worthy cduse are numerous and of a generous naturc and that ex- penditures are made wisely and with an eve to getting best results. At the election of officers Henry S. Walter was chosen .president. Other officers elected- were: vice president, H. C. Capen; secretary, ' Charles L. Morse; treasurer, E. F. Neumann; auditors, William J Judd.and George P. Spear. The report of Mr. as follows: At the last report there were at the beéginning of the vear 61 boys and 56 girls or 117 children in all under our care in the houses. Since then, seven more have been received and if no changes had taken place there would be inall at.the present time 124 chil- dren in the home. But of these 124 five have returned to their relatives andstwo have died, leaving 117 under our care at the close of the year, of whem 60 are boys and 57 girls. They belong to 'not less than eleven ‘differ- ent nationalities, and thus -it will be seen that the home is cosmopolitan in its character. Some of the children have come to us from the western states at a distance of thousands of miles; others have come from the cities and villages of New England and d few from New Britain. But they do not recognize 8&ch other as Amer- icans, or English, or Swedes, or Ger- mans, but simply as John, Jack, Car- rie, Annie, Mary, ete. They mingle together, well and learn to love and help each other. They seem to know the divine statement made by Paul in Athens that God. “hath made of omne blood .all ‘nations of men to dwell on the face of the earth.” In connection with this I will also say something in regard to.their education. The chil- dren, both boys and the girls, have had the privilege as in former years of attending the public gchools in New Britain and have been in- structed in reading, writing, history, geography, arithmetic, music, draw- ing, together with manual training for the boys and domestic science for the girls. Seventeen have attended - the grammar school' and four the publh: high school. Taking ~everythifig*into ‘considera- tion and -keeping in mind the many difficulties’ and serious obstacles. that Have been in ‘the way -of many of them their school Tecord is as good dand high as that of children in gener- al. Of course it miist be admitted that some of them are poor in studies that require a child to be ‘naturally gifted in order to make a marked progress such as musie, singing, drawing, etc., but in reading, writing, spelling, geo- graphy, and history, they have as far as we can judge from ‘the report cards done well, while on the other hand there are not a few that are real bright. The study of the Holy Scrip- tures has been carried on there as usual in the different houses, morn- ings and eenings. Health of Children 1s Good. ‘During the year their have been a féw cases of contagious diseases among the children of the various houses. There have been three cases of diphtheria at'the Boys' house on Rackliffe Heights, two cases of diph- theria ‘at the Girls’ home on Hart street. At the present time there is no sickness at any of the houses.and with the exception of the few cases tentioned, there has been very little sickness among the children during the year. This is due in a large part to the good eurefulnoss of the at- terulanw Klingberg was Gifts to Home. Rev. Mr. Klingberg further re- ported, “Ever since the commence- ment of this work we have been greatly concerned regarding tha spiritual condition of the children, in fact weé have looked upon this as something that is of far greater im- portance than anything else in con- nection with their training. The Gos- pel of Christ is ““the power of God unto salvation to everyone that he- lieveth” and we believe that this at Our Store ent this advertisement with your a to be framed and we will deduct ty-five cents from our regular price. gy ATIONERY DEPARTMENT. ]Gospel can be applied to any child, no matter in what condition, with as much power and with hopes of see- ing as great results as to any adult. ‘We have never undertaken to teach children any special system of thec- logy or made them accept any so- called articles of faith, but we ocon- sider it both a duty and a privilege to’ teach them the:fundamental doc- trines as they are found in the word of God and of having experimental knowledge of salvation of faith in the Lord-Jesus Christ. For this we labor and pray most earnestly and accord- i ing to the promise of God we hava the assurafice that our labor shall not be in vain. I also take .pleasure in stating that a gentleman in Now Britain supplies us with coal for all the houses during the winter 'in the same generous way that he has been in the habit of doing for yea Neither this vear have we been for gotten by two ladies who rvae pre- viously sent ug-weekly donations of meat, frult, eggs, butter and other good things for the children to eat, but they have in the same kind way as usual helped us this year alse. There has been no expendityre for tonsorial work for which we are in- debted to a friend in New .Britain, who has for years assumed the re- sponsibilities 'for this ‘part of ' the work. 1 will also repeat what I satd in my last' report that “matrons, five | in number together with their assis- i tants, have laboped faithfully during the whole year and I have reason to thank God for such unselfishness and able helpers, persons in whom god- liness and -ccmmon -sense seem w be happily combined.” 'The members of the board of trugtees have in num- erous ways and at different times en- couraged me and shov\n a great in- | terest in the childre Last but not I gin of the Y. M. % being mentioned in' t Scout work among ‘the house on Corbinm avenue He has ! been greatly interested in ‘the boys and through him a gentleman, whose name is not known to me provided a fine new uniform for each one of the Scouts. 1 notjce also’ particularly’ with joy that we have been permitted to cir- | culate the Bible and other part of | the Holy Scriptures in different lan- guages. We have sold and given away during the year forty-five Bibles and twenty-six new, testaments. From the beginning of the work we have dis- posed of in various ways 982 Bibles and new testaments. Pages of tracts distributed during the same period are 44,676. The financial statement is as follows: Receipts, balance on hand, $15.66; donations, $273.40; sales, $93.- 61; total, $388.47; expenses for books, Bibles and new testaments, §388.47. 47, Prayer Brings Nehrly $100,000. The Home is cupported entirely by prayer. No appeal has been made in its behalf since it was instituted Dv | Pastor Klingberg in his own house in 1903, Since then the Home has re- ceived through faith - and Divine Providence, the magnificent sum of $96,084.18. During the past year, Rev. Mr Klingberg who works without sal- ary trusting in the Lord has received for his personal reeds the sum of §1,- 524.20, The receipts of ' the' Homo were as follows: Balance . from last vear, $7.48; donations, $8.149.21; sales, $24.77; miscellaneous, $290; to- {al; $8,471.46.
