THE PROPOSED INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
Some gentlemen in Weymouth having taken an
interest in the neglected children of the town, and
being willing to give time and money, in order to
establish an Industrial School here, Supt. Vickery,
when he took the boy Dupre to Bath on Saturday,
directed his attention to the arrangements of the
School, with a view to getting one in Weymouth. The
Bath Industrial School was originally founded for the
poor neglected poor of Bath; but constant attention
as so reduced the nomber of such boys in the city
that hardly any fr-,m Bath itself are in the Home; but
they are sent from all parts, including London. The
place is called the Somerset Industrial Home, and at
present contains 78 inmates' the aces ranging
, from sto 16 The building was an old- commercial
I school, and the boys are not at all confined, doors are
left open like an ordinary house, yet the boys very
seldom attempt to escape, and the fittings left when
this school took po.session of the house, are in good
order, such as the marble mantlepieces in the bed
rooms. In the yard were houses, cart., pigs, poultry,
&c., and the farm is about a mile and a quarter frpm
the Home. The boys are occupiedon the farm, also in
making stockings, and some make halters for a firm in
Bristol, others clean the place; some attend to the
horse., some grow their own vegetables, and yet
others] are out at gentlemen's houses. The results on
the boys are very satisfactory, they behave very well
indeed. The last boy who ran away did it in October,
and this is considered to have partly been the school-
master's fault in boxing the lad's ears. The
schoolmaster afterwards left, and the runaway boy
then sent to let the authorities know where he was, he
being in a situation at the time. The Superintendent,
Mr. I). Young, often hears from the boys after they
have been placed out in life, were they turn out
remarkably well, reflecting great credit on the system
of kindness followed at the Home. Very occasionally
a boy turns out badly and is brought back again; but
the large majority are doing well in trades, as servants,
and in the Royal Navy. Superintendent Vickery thinke
a good ordinary house should be taken for the We
i mouth Home n or on the outskirts of Weymouth,
and it is advisable to provide for a good number of
boys, because there are the same costs for officers
salaries, &c., in a small Home as in a large, so that it
is the larger number of boys that pays. The lads
would, he proposes, be received from Dorset, or any
place that would send them, and by no means be con.
fined to boys of Weymouth or the neighbourhood.
Last year the lads at the Bath Hine, who, it most be
remembered, are from all parts of the country,
earned £171: they are clean and healthy-looking,
although some f them show marks of very bad
usuage in their younger days. In 1876 the balance in
favour of the Home was £l6 odd, and in 1876 they
gained over £2O to their credit, thus, showing that,
with assistance from the Government and the bay's
parishes, and moderate subscriptions from the
benevolent, an Industrial Home will not lack funds,
while it would every year save many poor lads from
falling into the criminal ranks. At Bristol there is
also an Indietral Home, which is located on board a
ship, and Mr. Vickery thinks Weymouth a very
proper place for the Establisnment of a Home
Among other advantages the Navy training ships
would offer means of placing some boys out.
