The present organization Of the office

satisfy this need. The Superintendent may
be a thoroughly trained and efficient OIL
Ger; or, on the other hand, he may be a

of some system that has been failure

be made IN seeming antagonism TO the

disadvantages under which the ONCE OF
the Superintendent of Charities mas been
Iaboring ever since IL was created, and
such. in part, are the reasons why il mas
proved inadequate to IT'S duties.
Another reason for the ineffectivenoss OF
the present Office of Superintendent OF
