GENERAL INFORMATION. Cardinal Cushing (of the Archdiocese of Boston) directed the archdiocese to focus fundraising activities on the Children's Home of Nazareth.  Working through diocesan offices, Baston designed a figure of Jesus as a boy talking to the temple elders.  In all, three production version (painted, bronzed and white) were used for different activities.
