from here. We want this institution
to be help as well as a punishment
to them. Really, what is this but an
education institution"
Mr.. Needham then gave the follow
ing outline of the daily life at the in
stitution:
From time of rising until $50 o'clock,
work.
From 9 a. N. until II m, school.
From IL M. until / D. M, dinner and
rest.
From l TO 3 p. M, work.
From 3 TO 3:45 p. m, large boys to
school and small ones continue work.
At p. M. all work ceases and at D
p. m. supper is served.
From p. m. until dark, play.
On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fri
days, evening school takes place. This
course was found necessary on account
of the large number of boys from Va
rious places at the institution, some of
whom have had no education at all.
There is only one teacher and all have
to be reached.
In concluding his remarks about the
Reformatory School, Mr.. Needham ax-
pressed the hope that the needs of the
institution be brought before the pub
lie more and more from time to time,
and that in the near future, better ia
cilities for work be furnished the boys.
