Lincoln Agricultural School, Lincolndale, N.Y. (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:

  Lincolndale Agricultural School for Boys was a Catholic charity run under a Brother Barnabas, opened in 1912 for selected orphans to be trained for agricultural and industrial work. On 9 March 1913, Brother Barnabas was quoted in the New York Times--at a conference on vocational schools, Brother Barnabas spoke against profit-making in such institutions, saying

  "It is a step backwards when we take those who are not able to support themselves and make them support us. Surely if they are able to support others they are able to go out into the community where they can work for themselves. The minute that a boy is self-supporting his place is in society and in a good home."

  LOC -- "Lincolndale" is misspelled in your title.
