TRENTON, Dec. 2.-According to the
annual report of the trustees of the
State Home for Boys, which has Just
been handed to Governor Fort, the in
stitution is in better condition at pres
ent than it mas ever been.
The trustees want a double cottage
built by the State to prevent over
%crowding.
In part the report says:
I'm the work of the school the high

has been the constant aim. The work
in this direction is marked by the same
spirit that the public expects in the
graded schools of the State.
The systematic instruction given to
the boys includes careful religious and
moral training. enthusiastic and eff
Client chaplains. both Protestant and
Catholic, being provided. The various
trades and industries of the home,
among which are blacksmithing. car
, pentering, mechanical engineering, cleo
trical engineering, farming. shoe MAX
ing, harness making, tailoring. masonry.
painting, paper hanging. printing and
Horticulture, afford every boy an OPP
portunity to choose according to his
illness and inclination. The work of
the shoe department, which makes and
repairs all the shoes worn. and of the
tailoring department, which does all
the mending and furnishes nearly all
the clothing used, are practical exam
pies of our methods. There are also
classes in st~enography, biography and
band music.
THE boys sent out from the home OH
parole or under indenture, are. with the
exception of an inconsiderable few, do
ing c~reditably.
I'VE feel that this institution is not a
prison or home for moral degenerates.
The boys are not made to feel that they
are unfortunates. On the contrary. we
believe, and try to show them, that
they arc fortunate in being transferred
to this home where, in spite of previous
handicaps or errors of ignorance. they
car have a chance to try again, and
later, when trained and equipped, go
forth to start their life anew"
At the close of the fiscal year there
were SIS boys in the home. During the
year the total number cared for was
1913. The number released oil parole
was 251; is were indentured; . dis

ton of the nome for-the year was sos.
