Report of the Board (If Tru tee
,
To His Excellency Alfred H Colquitt, Governor of Georgia:
The Board of Tru tees of the Georgia In titution for the Deaf and Dumh, take pleasure in pre enting this the XXIst Report of the operations of the Institution, covering two year ending June 30tb,] O.
The Board have watched carefully the workings of the In titution during the t.ime specified, and are happy to state that its cond uct ha been satisfactory in a pecuniary way; in the care of the building. and ground ; and in the progres made by the pupils.
The health of the pupils has been good, and we ee no local cause why it should not continue 0, except the fact that the wooden tlrain are in a tate of decay, and need renewing.
By a reference to the Report of the Principal, accompanying this, and to which we beg leave to call your special attention, you will ee more in detal! the workings of the different departwent., and the wants of the Insti ution We earne~lly request your careful con ideration of the sugge tion made therein, as we are thoroughly impressed with the exi ting neces ity for the improvements asked for. As the Principal says, no appropriation ha. been made for Luilding purpo es since 1 57, when the average attendance was about forty pupils. The capacity of the building i. sufficient. for about fifty, while we have been compelled to care for an average of ixty-five.
Weare sorry to say that the Institution for the Deaf and Dumb has never received the care anu at.teution from the Legi latnre be towed upon the other public In titution of the State, lI.nd we are at a los' for any good reason why this should be so, unless it happen to be the fact of its location in the Northwe tern part of the tate.
In the Report of the Kansas Institut.ion for 187 we find the following in tructive table of tatistics, gathered from the managers of the different schools named, with the following language accompanying it:
"A careful study of this table presents a variety of intere ting facts. SOille of the States of acknowledged liberality, the in-

TRUSTEES' REPORT.

Every citizen who has had occa ion to boast of the pride and liberality and public spirit of Georgia, must hang his head in shame at the facts pre ented in this tabie.
We fail to see any good reason why thi con Mion of afrilir l:lhould exi t. Georgia can and honld do better by her deaf-mutes, and we earne tly hope that by the time the next Report i due, the Legi lature will have enabled lr to make a showing that every Georgian will be proud to see alongside of that of any. imilar establishment in the Union.
In 1876 the tate purcha ed for 2,000 a building that cost to erect about 12,000, with ten acres of land attached, for the purpose of opening a department for the colored deaf and dumb, to be under the ame Board of managemellt and under the same superintendence as the chool for the white., thereby saving the salary of an additional superintendent. A succeeding Legislature, 1877, appropriated 1,000 for repairs, which was expended in work that was ab olutely n(;ce~sary to keep the building from decay. We think this work should not be allowed to stop where it is.
In the Report of the Treasurer will be found a statement of the receipts and expenditures of the In titutlOn. The unexpended balance which he show::! is largely made up from receipts from the shoe shop and from other source thaD the regular appropriation. The receipts from thi quarter being irregular cannot be relied on from year to year to produce a given amount, and therefore should not be taken into account in the e tim ate of the ilillounL. nece sary to carryon the In titution properly.
Hoping that you will give the subject of the wants of the Institution that careful consideration which its importdonce demands,
We are, very resFectfully, JOH~ H. DE T, President of the Board. JOSEPH S. TEWART, SEABORr JONE , JOR W. TUR ER, ROBERT W. ORT.H, SAMUEL A. EOHOLS.
S. O. TROUT, Secretary and Trea urer.

Rf.})Ort of the Principal.

1h the Board of Tmstees of the Georgia Institution for tlte Deaf
and Dumb:

GE TLEMEN :-In compliance with your regulations, I have the honor of presenting you with a report of the operations of the In titution for the two years ending June 30th, 1880.
During the years ending June 30th, 1 79, and June 30th, 1880, thert:: were admitted to the benefits of the Institution, respectively,

sixty- even, and sixty-four pupils. One proving to be Qntireiy imbecile was discharged.
The health of the household has, in the main, been good, though we w~re called UpOll to mourn the death of two of the pupils. Mo es Simmons, of Lowndes county, entered the Institution for the fir -t time, March 12th, 1 79 and it was evident from the first, that unless there wa a consideral-Ie change for the better, he rou t soon succumb to disease. He died May 10th. His mother wrote that he had been addicted to a habit of eating clay all his life.

John L. Stephens, of Itockmart, one of our best and most promising pupils, who had been with us several terms, died of

Typhoid Fever, May 30th, 1879: Oareful nursing and skilled medical attention availed nothing. No other case of serious sickness occurred.

The pupils, with a few exceptions, have conducted themselves

well, and it has seldom been nece ar.v to resort to hal' h measures

to enforce obedience t.o the rules of the Institution. Succe here

as well as in other raspects, we attribute to the wise organization

of the Institution, ani the strict discipline maintained in all its

departments, nnder that organization.

.

It affords me pleasure to say that the various officers have

been assiduous in the performance of their arduous duties.

The wisdom of the adoption of a strict cash system in the

management of the sl10e shop, has been manifest. While the sales

have somewhat fallen off from former years, yet there is the satis-

faction of knowing that there are no bad accounts piled up, that

would finally go t.o the waste basket. The falling off has been

mainly in the coarser grades of work, that. necessarily had to be sold at very short profit in order to keep the hop clear. For the better grades, the demand is always greater than can be filled, and as the profits arise from this clas' of work, it might be well to employ a journey-workman for custom work-that i if it i desired to make the shop a paying in titution.
The boys have been required to perform more out-door labor than during the past years of the Institu ion, whidl has been beneficial not ouly a a sanitary but a an enucational mea nre.
The time has probably come when another trade conld be profitably establi hed for the boys. A shop for the manufacture and repair of wagon, buggies, elc., with black lUitb shop attached, woulu enable many of them who do not wish to follow shoemaking, to learn a trade by which they could make good livinus. The small amount of capital relJui ite to .tart a busine . of thi" kind is one of its recommendations, for wi th.a few tools and a few pieces of timber, the boy could set up a hop and go to work.
Mo t of the In titutions of the country have in their corps of instructors, teacher of articulation, and it would be well not to let Georgia fall behind in this respect. Tbe trial mu t he made, and probably no more favorable opportuuity will occur for it ina.uguration than the pre_ent.
The coiored people are anxiollJy awaiting the opening of the department for colorerl children, and notwithstanding yO'lr body did all it coulc! in placing the matter befere onr la t Legislature in it proper light, it is to be hoped that you will continue your effort, upon the principle that "continued dripping wpars away Btone." We have had altogether ten 01' fifteen applications for ad-
mission; and motives of humanity, if the lJ.nestion 0; ju tice did
not present i,tself, demands that omp-thing be none for them. To place it purely upon business principle, it i a matter of economy to educate them.
The wants of the Institution are numerou , and if the Legi lature is never a ked to supply them, of course its interests mu. t still continue to suffer.
The most important, is the need for more roorn, no additions having been made to the building since 1857, when the number of pupils averaged about forty. The crowded condition of the dormitories, Bchool rooms, dining room, anu bops, i apparent to any one who will take the trouble to look-and especially is thi the calle in the dormitories, where as I:lany a fifteen person occupy apartments 20x25.

On Rccouut of the nnrpli?hility of labQr, it is ps~ential tbat

yon consider the advisability of erecting and supplying with ma-

t'bine;y a building for Laundry pn"l)o~l:'s.

As the Ll:'gislatnre meet. only once in two years, it is impol'-

tant to press .the claims of tbe In~tit.ution.

The pre..ent l;upport f'lnrl will b<:l.rdly be .ufficient providetl

there is an increase of the number of pupils. The prices of all

kind,:; of food, and in fact of every article consumed. ha advRneed

in price since the appropriation was n'l;.Hle, and it might be well to

ask that it be made 16,tHlll.

An expenditure of abou~ 3,COO will he rl:'qnirerl to put up

the of'cessary bnildi,?gs. make the neees,'ury changes in the present

building, and furnish them before colored pupil:; call be received,

and t!len all appropriat.ion of $6000 at. least will be required ad a
