MEETING OF TRUSTEES
 OF BOYS, REFoRMATORY.
BY MRS. J. M

OF BOYS REFORMATORY.
 The Board of Trustees of the Boys In- dustriaL School at East Lake met yes- terday at F o'clock in the office of the Governor.
 A full attendance of the Board was present, the members consisting of Mrs. R. D. Johnston. President, of Birming- ham; Mrs. Thomas M. owen of Mont Eomery, Mrs. Erwin Craighead of Mo- bile, Mrs. Milton Humes of Huntsville, Mrs. T. G. Bush of Birmingham, Mrs. Algernon Nelson of Birmingham and Mrs. Charles Henderson of Troy. With them were Governor William D. Jelks, Attorney General Massey Wilson and Commissioner of Agriculture R. R. Poole, ex-officio members of the Board, MT. C.. R. Griffin, Superintendent of the school; Senator GoldsA3 { of Mobile, and Judge Walker of MA05son County.
 The biennial report of the President, Mrs. Johnston. was made to the Cover nor. and also the reports of the Treas urer, Mrs. Bush. and the Superintendent, Mir. Griffin.
 Since the last session of the Leglsia- ture which appropriated $l5.000 for the school. private donations to the amount of $10.0O0 have been made. making the sum total for the two years $25,00O which has covered every expenditure. The Board. therefore. in making report to the Governor. showed that they. would go before the Legislature with no debts hanging over the institution.
 resolution was adopted asking the Legislature fors.an appropriation to build an additional dormitory, to provide more industries. such as blacksmithing, foun- dry. shoe shop. tailoring equipment and other improvements, including % new nd farpainar innlemants.
 By the reports 1t was shown that the boys cultivate the 14O acres of their farm. Mir. Griffin exhibited a number of arti- cles made by the boys such as shoes, field shirts. wood carving. etc.. which revealed a wonderful handicraft wisely developed.
 The reports also showed cOnclusively that this industrial school for the reform ing of juvenile criminals, and making useful citizens of boys who would other wise help to fill the penitentiary, has been managed with such wisdom that 1t now is one of the greatest of the State s institutions. What the Board will at this session ask of the Legislature is sufi- cient provision for the next four years, and an expansion of room for the accom- modation of the boys who are continual lv being turned from the door.
 One of the members of the Board said that they hoped for aid from the convict fund, the school being the juvenile pen itentiary of Alabama
 Mrs. Milton Humes, who has filled an unexpired term. was elected for term of six years
 Governor Jelks expressed himself as highly pleased with the condition of the school. He praised the work done and said last evening that it was one of the best managed and one of the most eco nomically managed institutions in the State.
 The bill asking for the appropriation will be introduced in the House by Judge Walker of Madison County.
