Bethel Orphanage, Osceola.
Fred Wood, of Knoxville has been elected president.
A number of the children who have taken an active part in the Orphanage
services this summer have recently been placed in good homes.
Callers at the Orphanage last Sunday were: Mr. and Mrs. Bert Stevens, of
Addison; Harold Beebe, of Painted Post; Roy Button and family, of Lawrenceville; Harry Cook and family, of
Cowanesque.
Nov. 7, the children gave a program in the church at Butler Hill. An
offering of $26. was given, also three truck loads of produce.
We expect to have Jesse Treat on our board of Directors after Jan. 1.
Mr. and Mrs. Outman, who are in charge of the work were invited to attend a
Missionary Society at Roundtop, near Wellsboro last week. A grand dinner and a good time was reported. A
liberal offering was made also two truck loads of groceries, canned fruit and farm produce.
J. K. Outman has been appointed solicitor of Tioga county for the needs
this winter. The business men of Knoxville have given him $125 toward single white iron beds.
When the Ladies' Aid Society of Roundtop met last week, they took in a donation of money and produce for
the Bethel Orphanage at Osceola. Mr. and Mrs. Outman, who are the superintendents of the home, came after
the produce and took dinner with the ladies. Everyone had a pleasant time and Mr. and Mrs. Outman seemed
pleased with what they received. There was more than could be carried in one load, so Mr. Outman returned
the next day for what was left.
