Care of Dependent Children.

When dependent children are in orphan asylums or costodial institutions other than those of the township in which the children proper belong, the township in which the children are cared for shall look to the township to which the children belong for pay for their care. This is the decision of the Attorney-General of Indiana, the secretary of the Board of State Charities and the Superintendent of Public Instruction. The practice in the past has been different in different counties, and great confusion has resulted.
