He wanted to keep them away altogether from its contaminating WORKHOUSE CHILDREN. 121 influence. He persuaded the Guardians to pur- chase a large dvvelhng house about a quarter of a mile away from the workhouse. This became a real home for the children. There they are brought up and regularly sent to the public day schools outside, entirely free from workhouse surroundings. So long as the mark of the workhouse clings to children, so long, says Crooks, will children cling to the workhouse. That ...is what makes him so keen in getting rid of the institution dress and of everything else likely to brand a child. He helped to banish all that suggested pauperism from the Forest Gate School. The children were educated and grew up, not like workhouse cliildren, as before, but like the children of working parents. With what result ? Marked out in their child- hood as being " from the workhouse, " they often bore the stamp all their life and ended up as work- house inmates in their manhood and womanhood.
