is to subdue vicious passions and pro-

Must Have AutnOrlty.
mo corporal punishment shall be
made until authority to do SO has
been first obtained from the superin-

assistant superintendent. Before

Recommends New Building.
"The school should have new cen
trail school building so that all of the
school room instruction would be re-
moved from the family building,
where it is now conferred. In connec-
ton with this school building there
shouldbe gymnasium of ample ca
pacity for the present and future
needs of the school. This seems to
me to be especially important since
your winters are so long and for so
many months in the year your boys
and girls get so little opportunity for
active, physical excerise. A green
house should be established. which
would especially be helpful in the
way of starting early vegetables and
for the purpose of producing flowers
and plants for use about the school.
A building, for blacksmith and
wheelwright department is most i'm
portant, this industry ought to be es-
tablished at the earliest possible date.
A. modern piggery should be con
structed and pamphlet on hog
house construction may be had upon
application to the department of ag-
riculture at Washington, D. c. A
modern hennery should also be es-
tablished, and literature bearing on
this can also be had from the depart
ment of agriculture at Washington.
A structure should be provided to
house the carriages of the school
and it's farm implements, machinery
. and tools.
Needs Hospital.
A modern hospital should be pro-
vided for and in its construction
care should be taken that every
room should be SO situated as to re-
ceive at some time in the day the dir
ect rays of the sun, with the maxi
mum amount of air, light and space
per pupil. and this should either be a
/ fire- proof building or the children
who are sick should be placed on
the. ground floor so that in case of
fire, there would be no danger of
loss of life. There should be cot
tage for the superintendent and mat
ron, as they cannot do the most eff
fective work unless they are given an
opportunity to have some surcease
from the exacting duties and the
daily grind which is only understood
by those who have assumed the duties
