The zeal and fidelity O.

heretofore. The zeal and fidelity OF
the Superintendent, and other officer
have been commendable; and as a re.
suit of their work, we NAV safely say
that Missouri can justly claim that
her Reform School for Boys is fully
equal, go far as the discipline is con-
cerned, to that of any similar instita-
ton Of any other state.
EXPENDITURES.
Total expense, including money re-
ceived from the counties and contin-
gent expenses, s39. 8OS.6l.
The average number Of boys in the
school during the two years was l26.
and the daily per capita expense,
- 2S-1OO cents including the officers
salary. the daily per capita expense
was 81 76-1OO cents.
With an appropriation of s., 500,
we have erected a dining and reading
room worth $40, 900, and with an APP
preparation of 81, 500 We have erected
q wash-house, laundry ard bath-house
worth S., 900, and out of the proceeds
Of the brickyard we have erected a SUI
perintendent's residence worth S.. 600.
So. that. with appropriations aggre-
eating 5000, we have erected per-
manent buildings we'll worth $40, 600,
thus saving to the state the sum of
$4,000. If we deduct this 81, 900
from the sum Of $56, sos. 81, we find
that the per capita daily expense, in
salaries of officers, provisions,
coal, gas, furniture, water.
physician, medicine, oils,
paints, glass, ministers, salaries and
expenses of members of the board,
books, stationery. insurance.
freight, telephone, telegraphing,
and all miscellaneous ex-
penses to be 46 54-1OO cents.
OF APPROPRIATIONS.
The legislature Of 1891 appropriated
b, 800 for dining-roOm and chapel.
That this money has been judiciousIy
will readily appear by an
of the building construc-
ted out Of this appropriation. The
bricks were made and burned by the
boys. They were put into the walls |
by them under the supervision of a
practical bricklayer, who is an officer
Of the school. The woodwork was
done by the boys, under the direction
IF the carpenter. The plastering and
painting were likewise done by the in
mates OF the school, and the state now
mas a building which would have cost,
# erected by contract, $4,000. The
building for laundry and bah house
vas erected in the same way, out of
he appropriation therefor Of s.. 800, |
md this building would have cost S.
400 at contract price. A brick resi-
lence for the superintendent is nearly
completed. This Was built by the
,oys, and the material necessary to be
was paid for out of the net
earnings of the brickyard. This build
ng will be worth about 1000.
TRADES TAUGHT.
Below is given a list Of trades that
