They come here, and instead of
finding punishment find a chance
for some of them, the only real
chance they ever had.
They come to a home, instead
Of a prison. They come to a
mother instead of warden.
DR.. Katherine Davis is the
mother, teacher-extraordinary
and friend of these hundreds of
girls.
Coming from the streets, or
from the vile dens of shame of
New York city, many of these
poor girls are diseased, saturated
with drinks and drugs, and filled
with resentment against the
world. They are properly cared
for. They put away their flimsy
fnery and wear pretty blue and
white bingham dresses with
white aprons.
Some of the girls are to be-
come mothers. They are most
tenderly treated of all. And
when the nameless baby comes
into life, it is cuddled and cooed
over just as other little babies
are.
DR.. Davis has a staff of teach
ers instead of guards. She has
honor cottages" instead of iron
bars, and she turns the girls
loose to rove at will over 800
acres. During ten years but
four girls tried to run away.

raphy, agriculture and other
branches.
No effort is made to drive the
girls; they are led by the force of
sisterly treatment and sugges-
ton.
Many of DR.. Davis girls have
left to take up well-paying posi-
tions as gardeners, dairy experts.
Scores of them who had never
been of. New York's pavements
are now the busy, contented
wives of farmers.
At their tea parties, receptions,
amateur theatricals and dances,
teachers and girls mingle and
have good times in whole
souled, girlish way.
DR.. Davis estimates that more
than two-thirds Of the girls who
come to her are saved for better
lives afterwards.
The base slavers of the under
world have done all they could
to make DR.. Davis work a fail
ure. Her hardest struggle has
been against the men who lived
on these unfortunate women.
They try to communicate with
the girls, and encourage them to
defy the teachers, and wait for
them to drag them back into sin
and shame the moment DR.. Davis
bids them goodbye.
