We were offered every opportunity by the superintendent, J. M. Devine, as well. as by the omecers of the in- stitution, in getting any and all in- formation regarding the character and condition of the ‘buildings of the in- stitution; main building, in which the large boys are housed: “C’” Cottage in which the little boys live and the girl's building, which is situated some distance from the other institutional buildings. We find that these three buildings, in which the inmates and omcers live cost the state all told $54,000. These buildings as well as all otter buildings are the institution, including horse barn, dairy barn, hog and chicken houses, were erected by the labor of the inmates themselves, llo¥ Your commit-; form or resulting ailments.

Three or four years ago an appro- | was raised and a third story complet ed, On this floor was constructed an isolation ward of hospital room, with i linen closet, toilet and bath room, thus providing an opportunity to: segegrate, in the safest possible man- ‘ner, inmates when necessary.

There is practically no drainage system except an open ditch, which! flows from the girls’ building on the west directly by the other building on the east and finally empties into a pond made by nature, and there large ly remains and has for twenty years. This pond or cess pool, an it is called is about one hundred fifty years from the center of activities of the school. namely the buildings of the litle: and large boys. A process of; destroying mosquitoes and flies is employed by pouring kero- sene into the head of the ditch and over this cess pool’ twice each week, from the first of May to Octo- ber. An appropriation to put.in a with the single exception of the main building, which was erected by con- tract lajor twenty years ago, We were given every opportunity to meet with and talk withthe inmates personally, and took the détasion to do.'so. Neg Buildings Faulty. The buildings are faulty in con- struction. The radiators in, all of them are of an ancient type and should be replaced by a newer, better typa. in the’ main building the second and third floors are laid with four inch pine flooring and have been in con- stant use for twenty years. The wear and tear of every day use and constant scrubbing have worn them until but Jittle. of the original thickness re- mains. This’ should be remedied as soon as possible. There are two dor- mitories’ (sleeping- departments or halls 28x48), in thig: building. Each contains twenty single beds, which is their full capacity, and When meas- ured by the fact that theré’{s ‘no sys+ tem of ventilation, makes them un- sanitary and unhealthful. The build-; ing is in so many ways defective that; we feel it should be remodeled, spe-; cial attention being given to venti- lation and heating. . The little boy’s building also lacks a system of ventilation and has the same defective heating system. The dormitory, of this buiding is 25x30x9%4 atid tontains twenty-four single beds, far too many for the cubic air space of the room. The superintendent in- formed us that at times he has, in this building, from twenty-four to thirty-nine little boys and is there- for often obliged to “double up” plac- ing two in several of the beds. The girl's building was visited and carefully inspected. Interviews were had with both the officers in charge and the inmates, As in the case with the other buildings we find this one well managed and directed, and every- thing neat and clean. The regular eighth grade course of stidy, as adopted by the state, is followed. Those completing the course take the regular exainination. ‘When graduat- ed they’ eee he, state diploma, with graduating xéretses held as in any other graded schoot. We found the plastered walls and ceiling were in.very bad condition ow- ing to faulty plumbing. In several of ——— OO The Best Cough ineene — Here's na enay way to . Tea have the Teel cong soueds” ‘ you ever tried. You've probably heard of this well- known: plan of making cough syrup at home. But have you ever used it? ‘When you do, you will understand why vhousands of families, the world over, feel that, they could hardly keep house without it, It’s staple and gheap. but the way it takes hold of a cough will quickly earn it a permanent place in your home. Into a pint bottle, pour 2% ounces of Pinex; then add plain granulated sugar syrup to fill up the pint. Or. if desired, use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup instead of ‘sugar syrup. | Either way, it tastes food, never spoils, and gives you a full pint. of better cough remedy than vou could buy ready-made for three times its cost. It, is really wonderful how quickly this home-made remedy conquers a cough—usually in 24 hours or less. It seems to penetrate through every air passage, loosens a dry, hoarse or-tight cough, lifts the phlegm, heals the mem- branes, and gives almost immediate re- lief. Splendid for throat tickle, hoarse- ness, croup, bronchitis and bronchial asthma, Pinex is a highly concentrated com- pound of genuine Norway pine extract, and has been used for generations for throat and chest ailments. To avoid disappointment ask vour druggist for “2% ounces of Pinex” wi directions, and don’t accept anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satis- factign or money refunded. The Pinex Co., Ft.

While base ball, foot ball and basket ball each go on in their seasdn, still these can be played’ only during the late spring and summer months, leaving the long wiuter months, with their long evenings, ‘in which the boys; particularly, are obliged to re: main in their stuffy, ill ventilated school rooms until the order for re-| tiring at night is given, This con-| dition should, we believe, be remedied promptly. | We found the buildings orderly and; in a clean well kept condition. In- mates are well clothed and well fed and in general appearance and health care. | Boys’ Examined. On being received at: the institu- tion all boys and girls are examined by the institution's physician. Dr.} Nickerson for general physical de- fects; Dr. Larabee for eye, ear,’ nose and throat troubles and Dr. Percy for any dental needs, and whatever dif ficulties are found to exist are at once given the proper treatment necessary to remove the evil or dezect. The ac- tivity along these lines is indicated by the amount expended during the past biennial period for these specific pur poses. Itemized as follows it is: Drs, Nickerson and Altnow. .$1,452:00 Dr. Speilman . sees +. 331,50 Dr. Larabee Dr. Percy .. Mandan Hospital . Mandan ‘Drug Store . Taylor Drug Co. Dr. A. O. Hende practic 3 In conversation regarding these matters the superintendent stated that 85 per cent of all inmates who come to the institution need the serv- ices of a physician or surgeon; eye, ear, nose and throat specialists or dentist, and quite a large per cent need all three. Tooth brushes and paste are fur- nished all inmates and not a few have to be taught how to use them, : Recommendations. F Power House—We recommend a new power house and new boilers. This should be butit at some point safe from high water. Heating Plant—We recommend the remodelling of the entire heating lant. Gymnasium—We recommend a new building for a symnasium of sufficient capacity to afford dormitory accom: modations in the upper story. Teacher for Big doys—At present time the big boys have no teacher. A teacher should be provided at the ear- lest possible time, and a teacher for small boys so as to relieve the mat- ron of that duty and enable her to de- vote her time to the care and super- vision of the small boys committed to the institution.
