REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES

HON. CLIFFORD W ALK~R.

Governor of Georgia

Dear Sir:-

On behalf of the Board of Trus;ees 'I transmit to you
1n annual report of the Georgia School For the deaf for 1926. The details of our management you will find in the reports of our principal and his subordinate officers which accompany this report,

We have enrolled dunng the year 295 pupils which is an increase ov r the previous year. We have reached the utmost limit or the capacity of our dormitories and school rooms. and we now must insist that the state provide an additional dormitory. There can be no doubt as the the urgency of this need and we beg you to incorporate in your message to the next legislature your recommendation

th:lt an appropriation be made that will enable us to provide room for every deaf child in Georgia that can be induced to attend school. We not only teach the deaf children to use the English language and to know the course of study in our public schools. but we give them opportunities in several trades through which they may earn wages and become useful and self supporting and contented citizens.

\Ve as ure you that the finances of our schools have been carefully and economically managed. Owing to the

steady increase in attendance there has been some increases in our expenses. Special education like that of the deaf requires special training and very small classes.neccessitating greater cost than for hearing children. We have. however. kept our expenditur,es within our appropriation and closed the year with a small balance to our credit after every debt was paid.

We are pleased to believe that the year past has been one of progress. We have made substantial additions to the equipment of our shops in which the trades are taught.

We commend the work of our principal and teachers and

other officers.



Respectfully

W. J. Griffin. Pres.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL
To The Board of Trustees,
Gentlemen ;-
It is with pleasure that I make this annual report, for it shows not only a satisfactory financial condition with every debt pa'd and no deficit, but also increased attendance of deaf children and improved equipment for efficient service to them. This is the eleventh annual report made by me to you. As the schools were founded in 1846. they have been in existence eighty years.
During the year 1926 there were 295 pupils enrolled. This is more than the previous year and is the largest in the history of the schools. Of these pupils 236 were white, 59 were colored, 153 boys, 142 girls. Of the white pupils 121 were boys, 115 were girls. Of the colored pupils 32 were boys, 27 were girls. Though it is gratifying that we have an increased attendance, I again call your attention to the fact that there are at least 100 deaf children in Georgia of school age who are not attending school. As our dormitories are full, every bed being occupied and there being no space for another bed, we do not try to induce more pupils than we now have to enter our schools.
The number of deaf people per thousand of the population remains 400 to the million. It does not diminish while the number of tbe blind has diminished greatly within the last twenty-five years owing to the fast prevailing practice by physicians of wiping off the eyelids of the newly born child with nitrate of silver. This
revents the infection of the eyes that causes the disease known as ophtHalmia neonatorum which caUSi6 40 per cent of all cases of blindness. There are now in Georgia probably three times as many deaf people as blind people. We have more than twice as many deaf pupils as has the State's school for the blind. But little more than onehalf of the deaf people are born so. Though the ultimate <;auses of inborn deafness are unknown it is a fact that nearly ten per cent are the children of first cousins, and another large per centage are the children of deaf people whose consorts were deaf or from families whose ancestors were deaf. It seems probable that all cases of inb"'1 C:~a:n::;:; are from deaf anc2stors. near or remote. As

8

SIXTIETH ANNUAL REPORT

stated, nearly half the cases of deafness are not inborn but due to disease or accidents, scarlet fever, measles, and men-
ingitis being the worst offenders. The past year has been one of general good health of
our pupils, even though we suffered a visitation of scarier fever in the autumn that gav~ us great anxiety. Th~rt were twelve cases and all made a recovery without complications. It seems that we were saved from this dreadful disease by the use of Dick's test to find the susceptibles and the giving to the latter of the immunizing saur:-.. It is interesting to note that three fourths of our pupils were immune according to Dick's test. We gave immunizing serum to the remaining fourth and no further cases of scarlet fever occurred. We now believe as the result of our experience that the use of the immunizing serums will entirely prevent the appearance of both scarlet fever and diphtheria for all the future. It is our purpose to protect our pupils by giving immunizing serums to each one of them which the Schick and Dick tests show to be susceptible. We have already protected them against small pox by vaccinating all of them. I ask your attention to the annual report of the regular physician, Dr. W. T. McKinney, and the specialist, Dr-. R. P: Cox. I believe that I can assure you that our health department is very efficient. It is probably owing to this fact that we have not had a death for six years in our colony of about three hundrrd people.
The health and growth of children depend very largely on the quality and quantity of their food. As the weights and measurements of all our pupils are taken each month and as these show normal increases in almost all cases it seems clear that our nutrition measures are adequate. It is a cardinal principle with us in feeding ou pupils to give each of them from two to three glasses of milk a day, each glass holding a half pint. To provide for this we have a herd of cows which furnishes us 65 gallons of mi~k, about a quart for each person at our tables. It is an:Jther ordinal principle to provide butter and green leaf vegeta~les or fruits' n every day's dietary.
I believe that really effective work is be:ng done in our (1 ass r Of'~. One of the great events of the year has been
or the adoption by a unanimous V":JL of the cnvention
sl'.per;n~rncents and pr:nci a s of a I schools for the deaf in the United St:ltes, of a set of re"o.uti:ms l::lr t 1e gu d-

GEORGIA SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF

ance of teachers of the deaf. It is gratifying to find that the principles set forth in those resolutions accord in every particular with those advocated in our school. even thoubh we confess that they have not been fully followed by us. I will quote from tbose resolutions and ask you to b2.1l In mind that they were unanimously adopted and th<lt every school in the United States is now striving to follow them.
5. Every deaf child should be taught speech and speech reading.
6. Every school for the deaf have an environment for speech and English.
7. The acquisition of the English language by the deaf is best promoted when the means of communication and instruction are speech, finger spelling or writing.
8. The sign language should be eliminated from all departments as a means of instruction.
It has been proved beyond all question that only when a child bas to depend all the time on his own speaking and on his own reading the lips of others as they speak will he learn to do either. Only in those schools where no hand-signs are used is understandable speech by the deaf found. Hence the now unanimous desire of all the managers of schools for the deaf in the United States to elimin~te the use of hand-signs for ideas. We confess that bur a small part of the speech of our pupils is now easily cnderstood, but in our schools our pupils do not have a speech environment. W2 beg you to be 'patient while we strive for better c~nditions that will induce better speech. 1 he goal is difficult but not impossible. The work of t.:aching speech to those born deaf is exceedingly difficult. I <lm quite sure that despite the difficulties our schools are getting as good speech as the average state school for the deaf in America.
It is exceedingly difficult to procure a full complement of train d teacbers for our service: and often when we have succeedcd in inducing an excellent teacher to c:)me to us other schools located in cities and paying larger salaries take them from us. In almost every instance wben a teacber has resigned during the years of my service here the reason given bas been either tbe desire to excbange tbe village for the city or to get a larger salary. As m :s: of tbe state schools for the deaf are in or near some c:ty, WI! are at a serious disadvantage in procuring teac:,ers.

SIXTIETH ANNUAL REPORT

As reported to you at your October meeting Miss Nettie McDaniel resigned in June from the position which she had held here for many years in order to take the principalship of a school at Beverly, Massachusetts. I found her very faithful and highly efficient in her work in the school rooms. I expressed to her our appreciation of the fine service that she had given our schools and wished for her success in her new field of labor.
I also reported to you at your October meeting that I had induced Miss Kate Alcorn of Kentucky to accept Assistant Principal's position in our schools. The few months service rendered since have been sufficient to demonstrate clearly that Miss Alcorn is entitled to our fullest confidence and highest respect as an educator of the deaf. She is sure to be a highly efficient officer. She knows perhaps as well as any teacher in our country the school room processes used for the education of deaf children in our most progressive schools and she has the graces of personality that secure the good will and ready co-operation of her associates at the school.
We have made some important additions to our equipment during the year. New steel desks have been put in some of the class rooms and new maps and globes have been bought. Additional playground apparatus have been installed. An additional linotype has been added to our printsbop, which is now admirably equipped for training apprent:ces in printing. A new stitching machine has been put in 0 Ir shoe repair shop and an additional wood working mach:ne has been placed in our carpenter shop. There is now being installed a refrigerating and ice-making plant in a brick room built to receive it. Much roofing and ~ome . a:nti g have been done and the buildings generally kept in state of good repair. We added poultry culture and built the houses necessary for it during last summer.
I wish you to know that our herd of Holstein cows continues to yield an average of more than four gallons milk per cow, the herd of fifteen cows yielding a daily average of sixty-five gallons of milk. A letter received from the department of animal husbandry at the state College of Agriculture states that no other herd in Georgia known to them equals this record. It will also interest you to know that the total cost of our milk is a little less thz-n 20 C!1.S a ga len. This inc!ud:-:J the urkzep of our

dry canl~ and all other items of expense connected with the dairy.

Many changes have occurred during the year in our staff of teachers. but we have been fortunate in having alw.1ys nearly a fulI complement of excelIent teachers that have worked well and skilIfuIly for our deaf children. I (Innot close my report without also calling your attention to excellent work of the foremen of our shops and farm and the matren> and supervisors and other officers who also help ecucate our deaf children. We have had a year o[ harmonious work and I feel deeply indebted to my associates who have made the success of my administration possible.
I trust that you who have given me the management of the scboo.s are satisfied with the results of my labors. I wish I could convey t.) you the gratitude I feel for your c-ntinued confidence. The dearest wish of my heart is that you wiIl permit me to continue here as long as my s:rength of mind and body enables me to render efficient serVic:.' in the education of Georgia's deaf children.

REPORT OF THE ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL
MR. J. C. HARRIS, PRINCIPAL.
Dear Sir:-
Since entering upon my duties in September. the Li~r ary Department has been so handicapped by unfortunate circumstances. that my first report must of necessity be brief and far from satisfactory. It is always difficult for a stranger to assume the management of a department and this is especially true in school work. the classes aN IOImwhat retarded until she becomes more familiar with the needs of the various pupils. This was complicated by having five new teachers.
Thanks to your foresight and the thoughfulness of my predecessor. Miss Nettie McDanieL much valuable assistance was given relative to the grading of classes and other things needed. However. there were other situations to meet that continued to baffle us. I refer to the crowded condition of the classes and our inability to secure sufficient teachers.
Forty five new children entered the primary department in September, with three teachers in charge. The maximum for any class should be ten and much more efficient work could be accomplished. if the number of pupils could be limited to seven or eight.
In order to make any progress we decided to divide the classes, taking half before recess and the remainder the latter part of the morning. while this relieves the congested school room. we can accomplish just about half the work outlined for first year. pupils. We were also annoy ed and progr ss retarded. by having to contend with five feeble-minded children until Christmas, one still remains a severe tax on the nerves of the teacher in charg.. I wish to take the oppartunity to thank you for finally securing thedismissal of these children, also four others who were special problems.
When I assumed my duties in the fall, I found the school grades as follows:
Three beginning classes. Five doing first year work. at least three of this number are composed of children who have been in school several years. either of a low class mentally or the result of being left in charge of inexperienced teachers.

GEORGI A CHOOL FOR THE DEAF 15

Two second year classes.

One Third.

Two Fourth.

Two Fourth.

One Fifth.

One eventh.

One Eighth.

There arc two manual classes.

When school opened we were in need of three teachers, tWO were due the fifteenth of November bur before that date, scarlet fever wrought havoc in our ranks and we were forced to put some of the larger pupils in charge of the classes, which is always deplorable. At no time since school commenced have we had all the classes supplied with teachers. Two are now out on sick leave and their places have recently been filled by Miss Ruggles of Massachusetts and iss Hicks of orth Carolina.

We are still in need of one more and two could be used most effective y.

Through all these trying times I wish to make menti n of the great patience of the teachers and their fine spirit of c:)-operation.

I am especially pleased with the improvement in dis-

c ....J:n~ :n the la:t tw~ m-:nths. O:Jr war on signs in th

cbss roem is resulting in much better attention and con-

seq uentl y better work.

.

It has been my po icy as far as possible to continue

the work as done by iss McDaniel, but we have found

it necessary to make a few changes. Believing the our-

line uS2d in the orth Carolina school met better the

requircm n~s of this section, than the one in use, we are

e:ing it as our course of study.

I .!n1 sorry to state our inability, awing to large classes,

to continue the auricular work begun last year. H::>wever,

I have r commended whereever there are pupils with a

great degree of hearing to give them the benefit of it. b

my humble opinion, the only way this can be successfully

taught in a school this size is to have a special teacher.

Believing in making the deaf more self reliant, we have

instituted the "Honor System" in study hall, segregating

the boys and girls and having a monitor for each hall,

The R suIts, so far, have been most satisfactory.

REPORT FROM ARTS AND CRAFTS DEPT.

Mr. J. C. Harris.

Dear Sir;

Pupils of the Arts and Crafts D~pt. have all seemed interested and have done good work the past year. They have made many trays. baskets, tables, fern stands and other articles of fibre. Many of these are woven over a frame, then sized into glue and varnished, shellacked or enameled, and were made by girls 'as well as boys. The girls also made hooked rugs and covers for foot stools in the same manner. The large boys had mechanical drawing, and all the small pupils had freehand drawing. Pupils of the special class did some creditable water color sketches.

There were 8 boys in primary shop, taking the regular course in primary carpentry, some of them doing good hand carving. They had many orders for bird houses and earned money by working in their play time. Some of these were large martin boxes and presented interesting problems to the young boys. They are also taught chair caning and had several orders.

All of the girls are under my instruction in physical training. Each class, of which there are "five, having two or more lessons per week.

The following cash was turned in at your office from sales during the year:-

GEORGIA SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF 25

GENERAL INFORMATIO



The Georgia School for the Deaf is at Cave Spring, where it was located by the passage of an act approved Dec. 16, 1847. From appropriations made by the legislature from time to time since that date the State of Georgia has purchased nearly one hun'dred acres of land on which are the various dormitories, shops, school buildings, power-house, reservoirs and other buildings needed for the management of a school adequate for the instruction of the deaf children. The property has valuation of nearly a quarter of a million dollars.
All persons of the state who between seven and twentyfive years of age and who are mentally and physically in a condition to receive instruction profitably, and who Jrc so deaf that they cannot be taught in the common schoois, are entitled to all the benefits of the Georgia School for t!l;: Deaf for such a length of time not to exceed (."dve yeau as the Board of Trustees may see proper to gi:'ant. In cast the parent is unable to furnish clothing and railroad fare the Board of Trustees are authorized to furnish these on certificate signed by the ordinary of the County in which the parent resides.
The Georgia School for the Deaf is strictly an educational instiution and excludes all applicants who are not able to make progrc s under methods adapted to those whose minds and bodies are normal excegt as to deafness. Those children who may be cbssed as feeble-minded or
criminal are not <!cce~ ted. rt provides for normal dCoif
childr n all that is needed for their development int.) adults that are useful and bappy citizens. It provides J home life that has abundance of food which is well cooked nnd well selected, of rooms which arc well lighted and .:c,mtl)rtably heated and nicely cleaned, and of beds whi.1:1) are properly kept. It provides Matrons and Supe.visor; and others who carc fer the child's wdfare when out of the school room and who give the child every comfort and ministration which a well ordered home furnishes. It provides school-rooms which ar' presided over by teacher:. who are trained in modern mrtbods and who are wholeheartedl y devoted to the chi: .ren entrusted to them. It provides shops in wh:ch gi,:s ;). d boys are trained in certain industries day by day until they become so skilled that they can on graduation be sure to earn a living wage.

SIXTIETH ANNUAL REPORT

,

The methods used both in school rooms and the shops

are such as will enable the deaf children of Georgia to un-

dertand and serve and enjoy society, made up as it is of

s;Jeaking and hearing people. The deaf are trained to

speak and to read the lips in most cases. Unless there are

defects other than deafness every child is given training

in speech utterance and lip reading. A faithful teacher

trained by modern methods can give a child the use of his vocal organs in the use of the English sentence. She can also train her pupils to read the lips of others. The vocal organs of the deaf are usually perfectly normal and the movements of the lips and tongue and throat as they make each of the forty-two sounds in our language are sufficiently visible to be understood as words by the deaf. This highest achievement of the teacher's art whereby the dumb are made to speak and the deaf are made to understand the lips of a speaker is now found in almost all of the school rooms in the Georgia School for the Deaf. Only a very few of the pupils are taught by manual methods. The course of study is carefully graded and extends to preparation for Gallaudet College in Washington City, which is the only college for the deaf in the world. It is provided by the United States government for the deaf of our country.

For two and a half hours every day all pupils above the primary grades are required to work. the girls in sewing and cookery that fit them for efficiency in the homes. the boys in one of several trades that enable them to bp.come self supporting and self respecting citizens. Competent instructors in sewing and cutting and fitting garments and and in selecting and preparing foods are providp.d for the girls and competent artizans in wood and metal plaster. and agriculture and printing and shoe repairing are provided for the boys.

CLOTHING

Pupils must bring with them and keep on hand, the number of articles of each kind prescribed in a list, which will be sent upon application. and a list of the articles sent with the pupils. upon entering school at the beginning of each term. should always be placed in the trunk, so that the Matron can check them up and enter them in a book kept for the purpose.
