At the state reform school al
Pruntytown there are now a large
number of the older inmates at
work manufacturing building brick
which are to be used in big i'm
provement that is to be made to
the institution this summer. AL
though they have not been in the
brick manufacturing business
very long they are now turning
ont a number of kiln. and will be
ready to keep the brick layers sup
piled by the time they are ready to
go to work there.
There being about. six hundred
boys at the reform school at the
present time. Superintendent o.
E. Darnell found that he had
many heavy, strong fellows there
that were not needed on the farm
and about the institution and set
them at brick making work short
time ago. So far the project has
proved u bowling success and the
superintendent as we'll as the
members of the board of directors
are greatly pleased with the re-
suits. With the boys it has pro-
ven an innovation from their old
routine of work and gives them a
new trade to learn and there is
little or no trouble in getting them
intersected in the work.
improvements Planned.
The plans for the new improve
ments are now being made at the
office of Giesey & Erris in this
city and it will be but short time
until the ground will be broken at
Pruntytown for the additions
which will consist of large dou-
BILE building for three dining
rooms along with other improve
ments. All of the Improvements
that are to be made will cost in the
of $15, COO, and
would have cost much more than
that had it not been for the fact
that Superintendent Darnell put
the boys there to work making the
brick.
The Dining Room.
OF the three dining rooms that
are to be in the ne, building, one
will be for the superintendent and
attendants. the white inmates and
the:colored inmates. Then in the
same building will be located the
new kitchen and bake ovens which
must be increased from the ones
that are there at the present time.
The population of the reform
school has increased to such an ex-
tent that the old singing halls and
bake ovens have become entirely |
inadequate.
This same method of building
was taken up at the state prison q
few years ago. and proved very
successful. the conyicts making all
