Reading edition

"Day Industrial Schools," by J. C. Legge, in Proceedings of National Conference on the Prevention of Destitution, 1911, p. 361. For many years an arrangement has been in force by which the Liverpool Select Vestry pay the Local Education Authority 9d. a week in respect of each child in their area admitted as a voluntary scholar. (Ibid.) A few years ago the Guardians of the Toxteth Union agreed, in such cases, where the parent was in receipt of outdoor relief, to increase the relief by 6d. on condition that this was paid to the Education Authority. (Ibid., p. 362.) The West Derby Guardians pay a lump sum of £40 a year.
