THE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.
Supt. Andrews Makes an Interesting Bien-
nial Report of Its Condition.

Supt. Andrews Makes an Interesting Bieh-
niaI Report of Its Condition.
The report Of the condition of the Yer
mont industrial school shows that during
the past two years there were committed
to the school IA boys and p girls; num-
Der returned, boys, 81; girls, 8. There
were 12l bows and y girls in the school
June 30. The whole number commit
ted to school since its establishment, ll32;
of this number l277 were boys and 100
girls.
The expense for the school durir the
past two years has been as follows. The
wear of 1898 1899 the total expense was
sol SIP 81 and S9lG.19 was received from
the farm and other sources. This left
net expense to the state of 500 926 20.
The expense per capita was Sl4l'32.
For the year lS99-1900 the total expense
was S21, 17l.35, and receipts from farm,
etc 81 29677, making a net expense to
the state of S2O,S7l GS. The expense
per capita was Sl37.33.
The school has personal property
amounting to SlG,S05 50.
Mr.. Andrews says that there has been
much to encourage the officers during
the past two years from reports from
wards that are on furlOugh or have been
discharged. A large per cent. are doing
well and some are filling good positions
in the army and navy. OF the ISL fur
Laughed and discharged 10 have been
returned for alleged misconduct, but
upon investigation he is of the opinion
that the Darpnts or guardians were in
some degree responsible for this conduct.
The morale Of the school has been good
and there has been fewer attempts to es
cape than in former years. Corporal pun
ishment or lookup is seldom resorted to-
Mr. Andrews and the trustees believe
there should be a cottage for the young
er children. one that would accommodate
80 or 10 of the younger boys, which
would be largely truants and those COM
mittcd for trivial offences, whose envi-
ronment and not depraved natures have
led them astrsy. In a cOnglegated sys-
TEN like this however vigilant the officers
of the school may be the old will in some
way influence the younger. \ cottage
somewhat removed from the other build
ings would obviate this difficulty. Both
Mr.. Andrews and the trustees recommend
an appropriation for a cottage and we be
lieve both the incoming and retiring gov
ernors will recommend the same.
If the legislature does not make an
appropriation. the trustees will probably
remodel the old arsenal building for this
purpose.
