Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty-Fifth Annual Report of the Board of Trustees and Officers of the Ohio Institution for the Education of the Blind, to the Governor of the State of Ohio: For the Fiscal Year Ending November 15, 1891 Sections 4065 and 4074, and probably some others of our Revised Statutes, might be readily amended so as to apply to our State institutions as well as to our common schools. We called attention also, in our last year's report, to the deficiency of our gas supply, and now find it necessary to say the defect has not been remedied, for want of the necessary funds. Something will have to be done in this matter. Either our gas supply will have to be increased or some other system of light introduced. It is altogether probable that the introduction of electric light into our offices and the more commonly used of our rooms, might be the most economical method of overcoming the difficulty. The matter of a gymnasium for our pupils has been recommended so often heretofore that we feel to renew the request here would be but a use less waste of time and space; yet, it gymnasiums are of benefit to any, how much more so to those deprived of the ordinary means of exercise by reason of blindness? Some improvement in our ventilating system would undoubtedly be a prudent guard against the possibility of epidemic among our pupils, as their present supply of air comes directly through the basement. Our heating system, also, is very defective, and ought to be improved. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
