FEEBLEMINDED HOME
NOT OPEN; WHY?
Th<> School for the Feeblemlinied,
near Augusta, has not been opened
and cannot be until funds for its main
tenance are passed by the legislature.
The last legislation passed the Act
creating the school and appointing a
board to. select a site, close the trade
and turn same over to Dr. Thomas F.
Abercrombie, Commissioner of Health
Ct the State., This was done, an appro
priation of SIOO,OBO having been made
for this purpose. The Tuttle-New
ton Orphan Home near Augusta was
selected, for which the sunt of
Seventy-five Thousand Dollars was
paid. There was some necessary ex
pense in board meeting:-,, attorney's
fees and other items. A keeper had
to be employed, and when th >se things
■were done there was not enough
money left to buy the equipment for
the home, the farm and the school, so
it could not be opened.
Many applications have been made
for admittance, and they are still coin
ing. Dr. Abercrombie is help
less to do anything without funds. The
people who are interested should see
to it that this much needed institution
should have the first attention of the
new legislature. The school cannot
function unless it has a fund for
maintenance, and it is up to the peo
ple to see that the fund is forth
coining.
The needs of such an institution are
pressing, as it is estimated that about
8 per cent of th: school i opulatios
are feebleminded.
Farmers are sill busy hauling
jo their cucumbers to the vats
in Pembroke. The market for
cucumbers is much better this
year than it was last, and at the
present price there is good money
in them.
It’s about time for the boll
weevil to make his appearance
ard he farmer had better begin
to make preparations to combat
iidm.
Mayor Moyd had the fire de
partment station moved last Sat
urday from the corner of Rail
'road street and College avenue to
the city lot.
The city tax books close on the
15th. Better make your returns
before that'date.
