The Steward and Matron, Mr. and Mrs.

A. C. Kleinjan, are taking good care of the inmates, and home is as neat I kept as is reasonably possible with the facilities available. However, the County Home Building is entirely inadequate, unsatisfactory and unsafe in the following respects: a. The building is old, and of frame construction; the stairways to the second floor are narrow and steep; the sleeping wards are on the second floor.

There is very serious and dangerous fire hazard. The water supply is inadequate for fire protection. Some of the inmates are old and crippled and would probably not be able to escape from the building in case of a serious fire. b. The Building is inadequate as to size.

Space should be two or available three patients, including some who must now be cared for in the State Hospital, or privately. C. There is no facility or infirmary for caring for sick residents, and such facility should be provided. The present home does not justify expenditures for repairs or enlargement; it is not constructed to provide adequately for the unfortunate persons who need it. It is recommended that a new and adequate building be constructed to meet this urgent Ret needmitted GRAND JURY.
