St. Mary's Industrial School for Boys of the City of Baltimore was
in corporated 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 $50,000 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 $12.50 per month.
The time is so divided that study, work and recreation help to de-
velop the whole boy and bring out all that is good in him.. The prin-
cipal trades taught are printing, tailoring, baking, carpentering, paint-
ing, shoemaking, farming, dairying, etc. If a boy does not follow 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.
