Boys Village youths pride in self help efforts
Milford report details Boys Village boys raising funds and food, reducing the village debt, and creating self help programs. They produced about 200 dollars a month in garden produce and canned nearly 1000 farm items while stocking 400 pounds of meat and jam. The home, run by Rev. Baxter Howell and Rev. and Mrs. Howell with Connecticut business support, serves hardship cases ages 4 to 12 and emphasizes non-sectarian, home-like care and self-reliance.
