DEA.R IR: As required by law, I have the du y and the honor to submit to yon a report of the Georgia School for the Deaf for the year ending Oct. 1 1903. The Board would first expre sits huppiness that through the kindness of yourself alld the legislature mealls have been provided for the erection of a huilding to increu e onr dormitory facilities. Already we have made plan and will erect this building a quickly as it call be done properly. A. to the attendance and other dettLils of the internal mallagement of our chool, I refer you to the report of the uperilltendent which I transmit herewith. The report of our Physician in charge i also tmn mitted. From this yon will learn that our health conditions are a they 'honld be, ttnd that we have ucce fully protected the chools against the invasioll of the seriou infectious diseases prevalent ill portions of our State. The work dOlle by our Specialist in diseases of Ear and Eye and Throat is covered in his report, find is, we believe, of great. value to the pupils of our chools. Thus you will e that we are giving skillfnl oversight to the he.. l th of the children eutrnsted to us. Your attention is also called to report of our ecretary and Trea urer. Hi books how that he hn paid out during the yt-ar, all voucher from TO. 1 to TO. 512- $30,161.45. The money with which thi wa paid wa obtailled from the following sourc From Appropriation for Supp I't, from October 1, 1902 to ~ ptember30, 1903...... . *26,875.00 From Accumulation Sale from hops and Other ource . . . .. . . .. 3 506.45 303 1.45 The UIl1I1l!uy of our bill 110\\' that we IHI\e actually expended for all purpo es .2 666.59. The di crepallcy hetween thi and the Trell nrer's vOllcher is only all apparent one clue to delay in presentinO" clJecks i u d th year previous. "e have carefully scrutinized all item on th books and account that go to make our financial statement, and we have no doubt that they are ab olutely correct. It is the purpose of the Board to have our SchooL maintained trictly within the limit. of the appropriation made therefor, but with a large chool attendllnce lind a ri ing stand:Lr haw al ready lo:t three good teachers, b can e other '. hool wanted them at better n.llIrie and we are liable to lose others at any time.
