(Oh. 35,1908.)
St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys of the city of Baltimore was
incorporated in 1866. It is situated in the western part of the city on
Wilkens, Caton and Union avenues.
This school is under the personal management of the Xaverian
Brothers, a body of men who devote their lives to the education of boys
and young men. Brother Paul is the present Superintendent, and all
communications should be addressed to him.
The State of Maryland appropriates $30,000 annually towards the
maintenance of the boys sent to the school from the various counties of
the State, The wards of the city of Baltimore are paid for by the
city at the rate of $10 per month.
The time is so divided that study, work and recreation help to
develop the whole boy and bring out all that is good in him. The
principal trades taught are printing, tailoring, baking) carpentering,
painting, shoe-making, farming, dairying, etc. If a body does not fol-
low in after-life what he has learned at the school he has at least been
taught how to work and that is a great point gained towards future
success. Music, both vocal and instrumental, is given an important place
in the curriculum. The efficiency the boys attain in this art is evidenced
by the renditions of the bands.
Boys are admitted between the ages of eight and twenty-one.
