Entrance Requirements: It is necessary that every student entering the
Institute be of normal intelligence and at least eight years of age.
Every student must also be of good moral character and must be able to
speak the English language sufficiently well to take the instruction.
When a stammerer has been cured in one language, however, he is cured
in all languages. Rich and poor are here treated with equal kindness,
courtesy and respect. We believe in those who are here to be cured,
regardless of their station in life, and we believe in helping them
accomplish that purpose in as short a time as is consistent with the
results which they desire.
Grounds and Buildings: The Institute Building and Dormitory stand in a
large lot, ideally located, in a desirable residential neighborhood
away from the dirt, dust, noise and clamor of the city and yet not so
far out as to be in the least removed from the city's activities.
Board and Room for Students: The Institute maintains its own Dormitory
and Boarding Department under the direct and immediate supervision of
the Institute authorities. To the right of the Main Dormitory Building
as you enter will be found the Dormitory for girls and women, while on
the left are located the General Offices and the Dormitory for boys and
men. Every facility has been provided for the comfort and happiness of
our pupils while at the Institute. Room, board, heat, light, hot and
cold baths and all other comforts and conveniences are provided.
Sleeping Rooms: The pupils' sleeping rooms and apartments are large,
well-lighted, and well-ventilated. They are comfortable both summer and
winter, ample facilities being provided to heat the entire building
comfortably at all times.
All of the sleeping rooms as well as the entire Dormitory and
class-room are lighted with electricity. Each room contains furnishings
necessary to make the room comfortable and home-like. Bath and face
towels are furnished without extra cost, as is all necessary bedding
and linen. Commodious and spacious bathrooms, with running water, and
modern equipment are furnished for the exclusive use of pupils.
Dining Room: Two large, airy and well-ventilated dining rooms are
located in the Main Dormitory Building. Here are served all meals, made
up in the most appetizing manner--wholesome menus planned for the
special needs of the type of students who come here. There is no
dieting, but meals are carefully balanced and highly seasoned dishes or
injurious food combinations are eliminated.
Every meal is prepared under the direct supervision of an experienced
chef. Under this direction our pupils are served with some of the most
delicious and healthful viands which can be put together--all of which
is evidenced by the students' enthusiastic approbation of the Institute
table fare.
