2 "Conclusion" 1. I agree with your "Conclusion" so frantically that I agree with you more than you do with yourself: that is, that Borading-out is the only way to save life & capacity in these poor children - you have proved the case to dmonstration - nem: con: And then you are obliged to secede from your case: Boards of Guardians con: This is very hard. N.B. - Scrofula and its eldest child Ophthalmia are greatly developed by merely bringing children - especially poor children - together. [You have no occasion to resort, even to "clean"? towels as a means of carrying "infection"] By sub-dividing (i.e. boarding out) you at once cut up this cause of ill-health & incapacity, root & branch, & clear the ground for training. You cannot do this in a large School, except at great cost.
