English Translation
77a When I reminded them once again of the consequences of such imprudence, I got the answer: "Oh, that doesn't make us anything, when we die, at least we have rest." Children talk like this. How should one receive the joy of life of such children? Everything is the same to them. Such "humanities" have already taken place more often. At 12 o'clock they were awakened, had to get out of the bed into the snow and exercisate. Next and 5 o' clock in the morning. That was not only once or 2 times. s is not known to me whether these are the latest health-promoting conditions. However, after the eternal cough of the children it seems not to be true. It would be time for a tanning. In this case there is no view of the educator against whom we personally have nothing, the Heinleiterin or us. It is possible and the children and there it will be different. Interesting is also the following example. With the food it is also ordered "glossy". The children come and whine that they are hungry, on one Sunday there were pol leaders to a gathering here, there were for the children 2 loaves and a piece of meat, which you didn't have to look for with the magnifying glass as usual. On that day they had enough, but the children laugh about a theatre as it is played in front of strangers. Tajkowitz always leaves the best impression with every visitor. But only a week here this view would quickly change. About 14 days ago the hunger was again so that the jacks came in some way to a cucumber barrel and emptied it completely.O punishment: one day nothing but 6 pieces of dry bread and black coffee. The home could be magnificent; but it is like that, if children feel un-happy and only speak of a "prison" of a punitive stall. -If you come here, Inspector, and these things come to the discussion, everything will be presented quite differently, according to proven ways. I would ask you, however, to take care of the children, of whom you will unanimously hear what I am telling you, and we also expect that we will be placed on another side as completely incapable of doing so, because Fr. Fritsche, a good friend of the head of the home, is to be reinstated.
