for Institution.
lsnecia1 to The Bulletin }

Especial to The Bulletln.)
Hartford, April 13.-Mrs Clara NJ. H.
McGuigan, acting superintendent of
the Mystic Oral school, presented the
claims of that institution to the joint
committee on appropriations this aft
ernoon in connection with the measure
by which the legislature is asked to
appropriate $4,000 for new buildings
and equipment for this institution. She
told in some detail of the work Of the
school and showed how it could be
very benefcially extended if there were
buildings better fitted to its purposes
in which to carry it on.
The school authorities had consulted
the Norwich firm of Cudworth &
Woodwork, architects. and had plans
for the new buildings at hand to show
the committee. Mr.. Woodwork of the
firm exhibited these and explained
them. He said that while $4,000 was
asked for and more satisfactory -iece
of work could be done with this sum
than anything less. Mrs. McGuigan's
suggestion that the school could get
along with a thousand less was based
on fact, and the buildings shown on
the plans could be built for that money
by economizing a bit.
