James S. Golden this week and made a big impression on the Congressman, his office staff and a representative cross section of Washington. John Vogel headed the delegation which included 38 children from the Galilean Children's Home, some 15 miles from Corbin, on the Bee Creek Road. Along with the group, traveling in their own bus were six staff members of the Galilean organist ion. The group has an a capella choir of girls.

They sang in two or three Washington churches. The organization operates entirely on free with no Fcdcr? aid. It operates a coeducational grammar school and a high school for girls. The boys still have to go els where for high school education. Mr.

Vogel tolti Congressman Goldenabout the of the Galilean organization. "We were determined to start a children's home," he sa "but we had no money nothing more than $40 or $50 a month sent to us by various friends who knew our work in evangelism. We never ask for anything, hut instead we looked to the Biblical quotation. 'What thing soever ye desire, when ye pray believe that ye receive them, and ye shall receive them." HIS PRAYER IS ANSWERED. "We prayed for money tor a Urge building," said Mr.

Vogel, "hut we didn't get It. "Then one night when wandering over th ridgei an adjoining tract ot tlmhfr I knelt down to plead with od. -'We mtixt build this Children's home At I am from my knees it seemed as though the tree were the answer. There I was leaning again! a stately pine 3IHI feet of timber. "Now," he said, "I knew God's will." "I went to the owner of that 47-acre tract lie wanted $350 for it but he agreed to give it to me for $250 since it was for a good cause.

I paid him $1 down, all I had. He took it." When the note was due in six months, he said, "God sent us sufficient money to pay off. No one knew the time or the proposition but God. That sealed our wall of taith." Then, Mr. Vogel said, "We got two county grocer to accept script so we could hire 13 or 30 men to rut the timber.

We. sawed the logs for one-third of the lumber, and paid off all script notes to the grocers and had 40,000 feet of lumber with which to build. "We had been giving away used clothing," he, said, "so we decided to make anyone who wanted rlothing to pay for it by working for $1 a That meant, of course, as much as they could carry. GIRLS' DORMITORY FOR $120. "Those who rouldn't or wouldn't work could bring chickens.

So we swapped clothing for chickens, and in turn swapped the chickens for nails anil a few sundry building needs. In that way we built a girls' six-room dormitory for $120 and a boys' dorm for HO. "Ws askesd God for money," said Mr. Vopl. "but he gave us hard work and wisdom insteea.

Tv'e too often as Christians ask for crowns when God gives crosses in this life. Let's remember that. Our crown is our glory." And so, said Mr. Vogel, "the Galilean Children's Homo took in 12 children in July, 1939. "Today." said Mr.

Vorel, "we carr for many more children, and In July, 1919, more than 1,000 visitors entered the grounds and toured them. The project now includes a laundry, an old school now used as a workers apartment, a big girls' dormitory, a dining hall, a fire Jeep, a cottage which has been enlarged, a preacher's studv, and a host of more buildings and equipment.

1950. The figure was produced by Amos H. Eblen, Sec-re-, tary of the Judicial Council of Kentucky, after weeks of sifting through the financial records of the Court of Appeals. An exact accounting of funds extended for fcpe-cial Judges was first started July 1, 1940. Special Judges are appointed by Appellate Court wnen regular Circuit Judges are unable to hold court, because of illness or disqualification.

Disqualification usually occurs when the regular Judge is rc'aicd to one of the litigants in a case before him or the Judge was an attorney lor one of the ligitants before he was elected Judge.
