Oxford—A beautiful sight was witnessed at the Oxford Orphanage, when 50 young people were baptized by Rev. J.D. Harte, in the Shriners’ pool. Seldom has a more touching spectacle been seen on the noted lawn of this wonderful institution than the consecration of so many young lives to church work. The solemnity of the occasion was in marked contrast to the gaiety generally present at the pool, which is a source of so much pleasure to the Orphanage children.
