BENEVOLENT INSTITUTIONS 39 



How many institutions arc rcndorod practically self sup- 

 porting through entrance fees is not known. There are un- 

 doubtedly some homes for the aged whose main assets from 

 the first are the anticipated entrance fees, while in many more 

 instances the homes appear to look to this income to meet only 

 a part of the running expenses. Other homes are fairly well 

 endowed.
