Such superintendents of the poor shall, before sending any pupils to said school under the provisions of this section, cause them to be decently and comfortably clothed, and shall provide them with comfortable clothing while they remain at said school, and defray their traveling expenses in going to and returning from said institution, and provide them with such articles of necessity and convenience as are required by the rules and regulations of said school to be furnished by the pupils therein, and shall also pay the board of such pupils during the usual annual vacation, if they are permitted to remain at said institution during such vacation.
