tuition delight in music and that it is an i'm
proving influence We require most Of our teach
ers to have knowledge OF music, and thus we
gain higher grade Of teachers than would be
ordinarily the In such an institution. Our
teaching all tends toward some industry. for we
can be employed In some kind of work about the
institution. For instance at least fifteen dresses
a week are made: sheets are hemmed. towels
made. and a large quantity Of work is done upon
the farm. Some OF the girls embroder finely
others make lace. The girls begin their work
sewing rags and continue on until they can do
rather skilful needlework."
In their report to the Legislature for 1871, the
managers of the institution say:
The managers have in years past repeatedly
referred to their faith in the laudable purposes or
this institution--the training and education of
the feeble minded. BY successive acts the orig
inal purposes as stated have been continued and
sustained; and these purposes have further been
emphasized within recent years by the organza-
ton OF the Newark Asylum for Feeble Minded
and by the establishment of the asylum at Rome
for unteachab and the Craig Colony for Epi-
leptics Thus It Is evident that the wisdom OF
he various Legislatures has been directed tow
ard the shaping Of a policy of maintaining AZ
this institution training school for the educabi"
fec BILE minded Of the state. Although III pas'
wears other objects have necessarily been at
famed vet the school feature Of the work mas
been throughout the most prominent one.
The school feature Is indeed the chleI one ..
the institution and II can be frankly SAID that IL
appears to be q highly successful one ana on
which has frightened the lives or laree nun

previous to coming to Syracuse had a thorough
training in his duties In consequence Of having
been employed In the insane asylums Of the
State Mrs c. f. Grouse and WILDER s. Peck,
both Of Syracuse. and both members Of the
Board Of Managers, were present at the time OF
the visit of Mr. Stewart. DR. Carson. as he led
the way. through the buildings. gave a careful
explanation Of the purposes to which they were
devoted.

sent upon visits to their friends We make no
effort to detain them IL they desire to go away
from here but they rarely depart without our
permission, and most Of them feel that they are
happier here and wish to remain. They recog
nize the fact that they better cared for here
than they would be in the poorhouses from
which many OF them come. We do not expect
TO convert the boys into skilled artisans nor the
girls into unusually able neede-women. but we
do seek TO teach them how to work. and how to
work with some intelligence

some OF them was clouded but others read
clearly and we'll Some. DR.. Carson said, en-
