"More bread and jam, please." That is the wish of Johnny and Willie and 102 other orphans who live at the Los Angeles Orphans' Home at 815 No. El Centro Ave. Next Tuesday and Wednesday Angelenos will have a chance to appease these childish appetites when the home holds its annual fruit and provision shower. Not only jams and jellies, but all kinds of wholesome food are needed to stock the orphanage pantry. Photo date: October 11, 1933.
