At present 
there is but a 
very small en- 
dowment to support this school and 
the work, therefore, depends very 
largely upon the yearly contributions. 
Members of all departments receive 
the attention of a nurse. For medical 
and surgical treatment the pupils at- 
tend the clinics of the various hospi- 
tals; also visits are made regularly 
by the medical committee.

Or the fondle of silk or fur; 
"Tis the spirit in which the gift is 
rich, 
As the gifts of the wise ones were. 
HAVE YOU HEARD OF ESSEX THE BEAUTIFUL? 
All alone by itself, surrounded by high hills from which are the most beautiful views imaginable, forest, lake, and river with the white sand 
dunes and the ocean in the offing, with its miles of woodland drives, with most excellent facilities for boating and fishing making it a veritable 
Summer Paradise. 
This sounds like a dream but it is a living fact.
