We want the help of the press OF
our State and the influence of every
good woman in the commonwealth
in having an Industrial School
established by which little girls can
have the same care which is given
our bad boys at the Reform Farm.
Boys are well provided for, but lit
tie girls who have no protectors OF
guardians, are not looked after by
the State, but are allowed to grow
up as beggars, thieves and drunk
ards, then they commence a life OF
impurity when it is too late to re-
claim the poor creatures who are
ruined body and soul through the
criminal rarelessness of the State.
We are confident the estimable
mothers whose daughters are pro-
tected from the temptations referred
to, will aid the Inder in having a
law passed establishing the Indus
trial Scool for girls, who should not
be denied protection simply because
they are girls. We will have the
Industrial School, because the good
women are on our side, and as long
as the fair sex commend our under
takings we do not fear the Lords Of
Creation who will have to pay the
bill incurred in inaugurating this
enterprise.-iSmith's Inder.
