We continue to operate the bakery and ice cream plant and utilize the newer freezing facilities to more nearly capitalize on the entire production of our farm in season.


HEALTH


The health of the children was excellent during the year 1952, except for a mild influenza epidemic during the month of April which affected approximately 75 children; however this influenza was very mild and we experienced no serious complications.


Because of the absence of any other epidemic, our per day care in the hospital was reduced to approximately 5 children per day, which is the best average that has ever been achieved in the life of the Orphanage.


The Health Department continues to operate most efficiently under the supervision of the staff of the Wil- liam J. Hicks Memorial Hospital, which is directed by Dr. Rives W. Taylor. We continue to enjoy the most wholesome cooperation with the Granville County Hos- pital, Duke Hospital, Durham, and the other hospitals which are needed for the best treatment of our children.


We continue to accept the generous services of Dr. B. W. Fassett and his efficient staff who furnish the treatments relative to ear, nose, and throat and fit glass- es of all our children.


The State Board of Health and the Granville County Board of Health continue their cooperative program of preventive medicines, and we continue vaccination against small pox; inoculations against typhoid, measles, and poison oak; and immunization against diphtheria and influenza prophylactics. We believe that these preven- tions have been most helpful in reducing our hospital care and in maintaining the health of our children.

ANNUAL REPORT OF


The care and treatment of the teeth is still perform- ed by Rufus S. Jones, D.D.S., with a very generous and excellent orthodontic service of Dr. G. Fred Hale, and Dr. E. D. Baker.


DENTIST REPORT


REV. A. DELEON GRAY, Superintendent :


Dear Mr. Gray :


I want to present you with this report and short resume of my work for 1952.


The general condition of the teeth of our pupils seems to be good. The discouraging time of the year about my work comes when there in an influx of new children right after graduation. Whenever a large group are admitted there are always some bad conditions and sometimes there are deplorable conditions. However, 1952 was a better year in this respect than 1951.


There were a minimum number of accidents during the year involving the breaking of teeth. I consider that we are always lucky when it is like this. There are some accidents that do not involve breakage of teeth but rather the loss of the vitality of the tooth. We had two cases like this during the year.


Doctors Hale and Baker have continued their orthodontic work for a number of our children, as you know. Orthodontic work or treatment is quite time consuming but well worth it in my opinion. The benefits derived remain with a person for life, even if all teeth are lost in later life. I want to compliment these two men on their accomplishments with our children. Too, I want to express my appreciation for what they have meant to our dental program.


A total of 695 examinations and cleanings were performed. 465 fillings were inserted in 330 teeth. Three crowns were con- structed. We lost two permanent teeth during the year for rea- sons other than orthodontic treatment and reasons of condition upon admission to the orphanage. The year before, we lost none. It seems that we average losing about one tooth per year due to decay in spite of my efforts.


Seventeen permanent teeth were removed for various reasons, such as crowded wisdom teeth, orthodontic reasons, and reasons of poor condition upon admission to the orphanage.


With best wishes for the orphanage and your work with the institution, I am.


Yours very truly, RUFUS S. JONES, D.D.S.


RELIGIOUS EDUCATION


The Orphanage continues to emphasize the religious life of the children through the facilities of Sunday School, Worship services, Chapel programs, Bible in- struction, and religious literature distributed. The chil-


33


OXFORD ORPHANAGE


dren hold their membership in and attend the four churches of Oxford and have the advantage of the pas- toral oversight of the ministers of the city of Oxford.


We continue to provide Sunday School on the campus for the grammar school children, while the high school boys and girls attend their respective Sunday Schools in the city of Oxford. All of the children attend the church of their choice on Sundey morning. We provide a service of worship on Sunday evening in the York Rite Chapel and are anticipating the services of a full time pastor for our children.


The Orphanage, in co-operation with the churches of Oxford, employs a teacher of Bible for the public school wherein two courses are available for our children.


The John Nichols School conducts chapel programs each week and each cottage has a devotional program each day.


REPORT OF SUNDAY SCHOOL-1952


REV. A. DELEON GRAY, Superintendent :


The Oxford Orphanage Sunday School consists of Primary, Junior and Intermediate Departments.


The distribution of children is as follows:


Primary 64


Junior 112


Intermediate 67


All high school boys and girls of Oxford Orphanage attend the church schools of their affiliation in the town of Oxford. All pupils are required to attend Sunday School, either on the campus or in town.


The Oxford Orphanage is interdenominational and we use the Baptist literature. Christian literature is also supplied to each Cottage once a month.


Our Sunday School classes are taught by the members of our John Nichols School faculty, with each teacher having a substitute among the cottage counselors or other Orphanage workers. We have eleven regular classes with an average of about twenty-two pupils per class.


The collections from the Sunday School go to the Shriners' Hospital For Crippled Children in Greenville, South Carolina. This year the total of our collections was $222.71.


We are all very happy to be in our new chapel for our Sunday morning services. We now have a beautiful auditorium and enough

spacious, well-lighted class rooms for all classes without having to leave the building. This chapel will be a joy to us for many years to come.


Respectfully submitted, Oxford Orphanage Sunday School, M. G. TALTON, JR., Superintendent.


FARM REPORT


REV. A. DELEON GRAY, Superintendent :


Our farm program primarily helps to fill the needs of some of the other departments at the Orphanage. We grow vegetables for the dining room; hay and silage for the dairy; corn for the production of pork; unload and haul more than twenty cars of coal a year; rake up and keep leaves off the campus; mow pas- tures, roadsides, and hedgerows; and perform many other simi- lar duties. In this way, we keep busy twelve months in the year.


The early spring vegetables were good and our fall garden, with the exception of lima beans, was excellent. Our summer vegetables were fair with plenty of roasting ear corn and field peas. We froze a goodly quantity of snap beans, corn, field peas, beets, squash, and strawberries.


During the year, we doubled our corn production to help feed the increase in hog production. In order to do this, we rented 25 acres of land from Mr. Benny Watkins (the rental to be the cost of clearing up the young growth of pine, gum, sassafras, and persimmon on the land). This 25 acres produced approximately one thousand bushels of corn. We also cleaned up and planted twelve acres that had been in pasture for a number of years and produced an excellent crop of corn. Our corn crop was much above the average and was excellent considering the weather conditions.


In the spring we limed, fertilized, and prepared about 15 acres which the dairyman seeded to pasture. We also prepared and seeded about 30 acres more of alfalfa. This fits well into our overall picture of increased grazing and the production of an abundance of good hay.


The overall picture of our farm year is good and we have sufficient hay, silage, and corn on hand to fill our needs. We appreciate the co-operation of all who have made this possible. We appreciate the purchase of another tractor and other implements, as it has made our work much easier.


Respectfully submitted,


T. R. ADAMS, Farm Manager

OXFORD ORPHANAGE DAIRY REPORT


REV. A. DELEON GRAY, Superintendent :


The livestock program during 1952 began to follow the pat- tern that has been planned for the next few years. The main points of this program are: (1) to keep the herd on continual test; (2) to build an all-registered herd (expect to accomplish this by September 1, 1953) ; (3) to continue to encourage boys to show animals in 4-H and State Fairs' competitions; (4) to keep a large enough herd to have a surplus of milk the year round; (5) to grow enough pigs to supply the Orphanage with sufficient pork and lard at all times.


The herd finished the first year on Dairy Herd Improvement Test on June 5 with an average of 8,308 pounds of milk and 272 pounds of butterfat per cow. This average was made during a year that we had sufficient hay and silage, but short pasture dur- ing the summer months. The herd produced a total of 347,149 pounds of milk during 1952.


On January 1, there were 72 heads of cows, calves, and bulls in the Orphanage herd. Fifteen of these were grade; the others were registered. We sold $8,149.00 worth of animals and used $7,420.00 of this amount to purchase 11 registered animals. This number of animals could not have been sold, if we were not buying animals to replace them.


The boys showed animals in the District 4-H Junior Dairy Cattle Show, the County Fair, and the State Fair. At these shows, they won a total of 14 blue ribbons, or 14 first places, and 8 other places. They also won a total of over $200.00 in premiums, which was used to pay their expenses and give each of the dairy boys a trip to the State Fair in October.


We had 141 hogs on hand the first of the year. Many of these will be killed in January, February, and March. There was 23,007 pounds of pork killed during the year, which was enough to meet our requirements.


State College loaned the Orphanage a bull this year. The Staff of the Animal Husbandry Department at State has been very co-operative in helping and advising us on our livestock pro- gram this year; this has contributed much to the success of the program.


Respectfully submitted, ROBERT J. DAVIS, Manager Livestock


THE ORPHANS' FRIEND AND MASONIC JOURNAL


REV. A. DELEON GRAY, Superintendent :


It is indeed a pleasure to report another good year for The , Orphans' Friend and Masonic Journal. Better news coverage was given the symbolic lodges and other Masonic organizations during the year 1952. This was largely due to the fact that an increasing


36


ANNUAL REPORT OF


number of secretaries and lodge reporters throughout the state sent in photographs and items of interest concerning outstanding events in their respective communities. The degree of success attained by this publication, to a great extent, depends on the co- operation of interested parties in each lodge, since it is impossible for a representative of the paper to visit all the lodges during the year. We are deeply grateful to those correspondents who rendered such valuable assistance last year, and we trust many more may be added to their ranks during the coming year.


In some localities our circulation is very good, but in many places there is room for considerable improvement. In many of the larger cities the canvassing is still somewhat irregular, but we hope to make improvements in that respect at an early date.


Our present circulation is 20,000, which at first glance might seem quite good, but when one stops to consider there are more than 52,000 Masons belonging to lodges in North Carolina, there comes the realization that such a number is far from being satis- factory. It is our aim to work out a plan, approved by the Grand Lodge of North Carolina, which will enable every Master Mason in the state to receive this publication regularly.


During the past year we encouraged the lodges to subscribe for their entire memberships, and have met with considerable success. At the present time there are 93 lodges following the 100 percent subscription plan. While we consider this a step in the right direction, the plan has not advanced far enough, and we are con- stantly urging other lodges to adopt same. It is pleasing to note that three lodges have been added to the list of 100 percent sub- scribers within the past few days. Lodges subscribing for their entire memberships are as follows:

During the past year it was my privilege to attend eighteen district meetings, several schools of instruction, sessions of both Scottish and York Rite Bodies, and to visit a number of individual lodges. In each instance I was received most courteously and was accorded the very finest hospitality, for which I am deeply grate- ful. My only regret is that I was unable to make more such visits.


There were many contributing factors which made the various duties in connection with editing The Orphans' Friend and Ma- sonic Journal very pleasant during the past twelve months. First, of all, I wish to express appreciation for your many acts of kind- ness and courtesy throughout the year. Then, to Brother J. H. Landrum, manager of the printing department, to the other in- structors, and to the boys who are receiving instruction in the arts of printing, must go an expression of sincere gratitude for the fine cooperative spirit they have shown at all times. Such a fine example of genuine helpfulness is indeed gratifying, and it is my earnest desire that it may prove to be an incentive to strive to carry on to a still greater improvement in our publication.


In closing, I want to assure you and all concerned that The Orphans' Friend and Masonic Journal is ready at all times to serve the Oxford Orphanage, and shall always be consecrated to the task of promoting the best interests of Masonry in this Grand Jurisdiction.


Respectfully submitted, LEON GODOWN, Editor.

The Dairy Herd is now valued at $25,325.00. It consists of 28 registered cows, 15 grade cows, 22 registered heifers, 2 bulls in service and 5 bull calves. Animals sold during year, grades and culls brought $8,149.51. Part of this amount was used to purchase 11 registered animals at a cost of $7,420.00. June 5th, we finished our first year on D.H.I.A. Test since the war. The herd averaged 8,308 pounds of milk and 272 pounds of butterfat. The herd pro- duced 347,149 pounds of milk valued at $21,870.00. We expect to replace all grade animals with registered animals during 1953. We produced a surplus of milk 11 months out of the 12 during 1952. This milk was sold to Pine State Creamery.


The farm produced 22,007 pounds of pork during 1952 at a value of $6.602.10. We now have on hand 12 sows, 1 boar, 14 open gilts and 114 pigs. Some of these pigs are now ready for slaughter.


The farm produced enough hay to feed the Dairy Herd and sufficient corn to fatten out the pigs, as well as sufficient vege- tables during the season for table use and a surplus for freezing.

ANNUAL REPORT OF


The report of the Auditor which covers every detail of Oxford Orphanage finances is on file in the office of the Grand Secretary in Raleigh and also here at the Orphanage. His opinion and also several pages from his report which reflect the general financial condition at the close of business on December 31, 1952, are pre- sented here. I urge you to study his report.


In closing this report I would like to express my thanks to the Board of Directors, Executive Committee, Superintendent A. D. Leon Gray and other members of the staff of the Orphanage for the fine co-operation they have given me during 1952.

AUDITOR'S OPINION


Officers and Board of Directors Oxford Orphanage Oxford, North Carolina GENTLEMEN :


I have examined the balance sheet of Oxford Orphanage, Oxford, North Carolina, as of December 31, 1952, and the State- ments of Income and Surplus for the twelve months period ending on that date, without making a detailed audit of the transactions, and following the usual accounting procedure, I have examined or test- checked the accounting records and other supporting data and reviewed the system of internal control.


Accounts receivable were not verified by correspondence. In- ventories were furnished the Management without further veri- fication. Endowment Fund Securities were inspected or confirmed by statements from the custodians.


Based on the examination made and qualified to the extent that no depreciation has been taken, I am of the opinion that the accompanying Balance Sheet and related Statements of Income and Surplus present fairly the financial position of the various funds of the Oxford Orphanage at December 31, 1952, and the result of operations for the year ended on that date.


Respectfully submitted,


R. B. SPENCER, Certified Public Accountant, Auditor, The Grand Lodge of A. F. & A. M., of North Carolina.
