The image shows a report on the Lyman School for Boys, which appears to be a reform school or juvenile detention facility in the early 1900s. The top of the report has a photo of young boys working in what looks like a metal or woodworking shop, with the caption "LEARNING IRON WORK."

Below the photo, statistics are provided on the conduct of boys outside the school. It states that 58/100 boys who were previously doing well are now a less favorable figure, since counting ALL boys on probation (including those outside too short a time to be really tested) would give a worse percentage.

The report then provides a breakdown of the total number of boys (910) and their whereabouts and condition as of October 1, 1903. The majority (82.9%) are doing well outside the school, while the rest have either been in another penal institution, are out of state, or their whereabouts are unknown.

The footnote clarifies that the statistics include boys who have gone to reformatories, been sentenced by a court or transferred, and also runaways from the school who were never out on probation.

Overall, the report provides a glimpse into the operations and outcomes of this boys' reform school in the early 20th century.
