ange, presented to her intent linteuei paper, "Do ye Need a Reformatory for Women in this Sute ?" It wax ■ videut that Mrs. Paddock had given great nsrarch and study iu making her»elf fauiilE far with her subject. Books and statistics had been devoured, personal experience* of those engaged iu reformatory work had been solicited, and iUKtitulion* themselves visited hy this indefatigable worker for the good of her sex, all of which was laid before the convention And must have convinced many that we 1 do need, as she urged we should have, a reformatory for women in New Jersey. ■ Mrs. E. R. Grice, o! Riverton, President of the New Jersey Congress of Mothers, followed, and said her chief efi fort was to speak of the end and aim of the Congress. We should bring into harmony the mother, the teacher and the . child. k They are pfuimes too divergent. There are two forces at work. The mother and the teacher should work | derstandingly and in miUon in the cor- ;. net training of the child. Mothers counseled that the formative principle must lie understood in the development h Of the child. SlmilarTkingrewea in other | Bute* were referred to and much informagiven a* to their workings. The paper was very instructive, and mothers should
