MISSOURI
REFORM
SCHOOL

Ed. JoURNAL:-A copy Of the Journal
reached me today and my attention was
attracted to the marked column of edit.
orial page which calls attention to the
printed statement Of the superintendent
OF the Missouri Reform School for boys,
in which he Gays the total cost to the
state is only $l50,OO0. Mr.. Editor, /
wish to say that this amount represents
money appropriated for specific purposes,
buildings, etc, do not refer to mainte.
nance, as our per capita expen diture is
a little less than Sl2 per month. The
work required upon our buildings in
course of erection, both skilled and un-
skilled, is furnished by our boys, thus
securing 10 the state buildings for less
than one-half the cost If contracted for.
A two'fold gain is had, first, in teaching
the boys useful trades; second, in secur-
ing the most possible 10 the state for the
least outlay. Let it be thoroughly un-
derstocd that the Missouri Reform
School does not pretend TO be in any
sense self-supporting, but on the other
hand the advantages afforded in the
teaching of trades (not partially but
thoroughly taught, will make a some
what greater expense to the state, than
where no thought is given to teaching
employment. Thorough and complete
reformation should be the aim of every
Institution, and the usefulness Of the one
reformed to be determined by whatever
OF skill acquired while member OF the
school, 1t would be difficult matter TO
C ,mpute in dollars and cents the value
of these young lives reformed in the
broadcast sense.
Hoping you may give this explanation
space in your paper, and wishing for the
greatest success possible for your school
in Oregon, | am very respectfully,
l.. ID. DRAKE,
Sup't Missouri Reform School.

Mrs. Strong's Story.

A JouRNAL reporter called on Mrs.
Strong and she confirmed the principal
features OF the above report She says
she has no idea who the man was, or
what object anyone could have had in
attacking her. The last she remembers
before losing consciousness Nas that tie
man was holding her az though to lift or
carry her. The only warning she had of
the presence Of anyone being near was
just before che and her seven year
old son reached .the corner
Of the Powers place. They heard a
noise and they became frightened, and
retreated q short distance. On hearing
no repetition Of the sound, which was
only rustic Of the leaves on the ground,
they decided 1t was only dog, and
again proceeded toward home. Reach.
ing the corner they stopped to look
around and without the slightest warn
ing she was atruck between the should
ers. She says the blow did not seem to
hurt, only cause her TO lose her breath,
but it must have slightly paralyzed her
or she would have prevented the chlo-
roiorm from being put to her face. Re-
garding the identity of the man she sal d
she would not care to make it publ c
even il she were herself aware OF It.
