industrial school for Girls.

A meeting of the trustees of the Maine
Industrial School for girls was held at the
office Of the treasurer and manager in
Hallowell on Wednesday last. Quarterly
reports were submitted and the usual routine
business was transacted. The school is still
crowded to its utmost capacity. and the short
sighted policy of our State Senate in defeat
ing the resolve making a conditional appro-
prialion for another school building was
never more apparent than at present. Six
girls have been admitted to the school during
the past quarter; six have been placed in
homes and two have been returned to the
school present number Al. The trustees
expressed satisfaction with the prosperous
condition of the school and the neat and
attractive appearance of the grounds and
premises generally. There are many ap-
plicatiens for admission that cannot be grant
ed until vacancies occur, and no girl should
be sent to the school without first making
application to the manager, as the utmost
limit of accommodation is now reached.
