  • Description

    This is an article from the Western Mail. It has information about the industrial schools for boys and girls that the Salvation Army planned to open in Collie. The article says that two facilities were planned, but later newspaper reports show that in fact three separate institutions were opened on the large block of land owned by the Salvation Army along the Collie and Bingham rivers.
