The new Washington’s Children’s Home which is to be erected here early next spring will be a memorial to the late Julius Galland. The contribution from the Julius Galland estate is $35,000 according to an announcement by the trustees. Six lots have been acquired which will be landscaped and made an asset to the community. The new home will be two stories with spacious sun porches, and of brick construction. Comfortable dormitories will hold six children each, with dressing rooms, large play rooms and a dining room equipped with a stage.

Another donation of $5,000 has been announced by the Julius Galland trustees to aid in the construction of a new three-story brick and concrete structure to cost $100,000 for the House of the Good Shepherd at Wellesley and Lidgerwood.
