“Family” of 50
Fun But Costly
The fun and interest of raising
a daily average of 50 children,
and the tremendous costs of doing
so in Kodiak, were described in
a slide-illustrated lecture at the
Rotary luncheon this week by
William Stone, superintendent of
the Kodiak Baptist Mission, a
children’s home on. Mission road.
The children, he explained,
come from Kodiak island, the
Aleutian chain and even Bristol
Bay area, as the result of broken
homes, tuberculosis of the parents,
need for schooling and in some
cases sheer neglect.
There is no age limit at the
home, Mr. Stone said, and the in
stitution receives high marks for
its plan of maintaining “cottages”
of 12-15 children each, with sepa
rate supervision of “house” par
ents, each with its own facilities
for cooking, dining, baking and
laundry.
Under the direction of Superin
tendent Store a herd of Hereford
cattle is raised for beef, 10,000
eggs are produced yearly, weekly
rummage sales are held, gardens
worked, fish and berries frozen,
hay cut, and all possible mainten
ance and repairs are done by the
staff.
Even with the savings thus ef
fected, Mr. Stone said,* it costs
$53,594 for one year’s operation.
Part of the money comes froin
contributions of individuals and
business houses; $ome is received
from governmental agencies in in
dividual cases, as from, the Alaska
Native Service; and a little comes
from parents who can- help.
But, even with voluntary assis
tance, last year a balance of $23,
438 was paid for by the Baptist
Home Mission service apd chur
ches sponsoring the institution.
Even' with all the problems the
feeling of service and satisfaction
in such work is so great, Mr.
Stone said, that while he and his
family came to Kodiak in 1946
with the idea of a year or two of
work, they are still here, maintain
ing an institution that provides
a need not filled by any other
agency in the area.
Six directors of the Rotary Club,
from which officers will be chosen
for the year beginning in July,
were elected. They are: Jess Bal
lard, William Lamme, Pete Rama
glia, Arthur Brooks, Lou Veerman
and A! Hochberegr.
Guests in attendance were
C. W. Rimestad and Ray Skorue
