About: This is a work in progress that considers the commemorative book "100 Years of Progress in the Making of Men" about the Lyman School for Boys in Westborough, Massachusetts. The "100 Years" project is thinking about geographical and spatial overlays; the "making" or training of boys as citizens, consumers, and workers; and the resonances of the reform project in other ideological programs. The Lyman School for Boys was the first reform school in the U.S. The source text can be found below and more information on the Lyman School for Boys can be found here and elsewhere online. A scan of the Lyman School log book details the "moral history" of the boys, including their families' religions, wealth status, and behavior. These jotted notes explain the terms of the boys' "indenture."
