BLOSSOM, Surveyors of Highways. REPORT Or MOTH SUPERINTENDENT. Report of the gypsy and brown tail moth superintendent is respectfully submitted: The result of the scout for brown tail moth nests during the winter of 1908-09 resulted in taking about sixty bushels of the nests throughout the town. The scout for 1910 is now well advanced and not over half as many nests wile be found as were taken last year. The scout for gypsy moth egg clusters for 1910 has not yet been started, as the superintendent thought best to take off the brown tail nests first. Below is a list of the colonies we have at present with the number of caterpillars and egg clusters found during the summer and fall of 1909 Mr. A. F. Edson, Cummaquid, 75 caterpillars, no egg clusters. Mr. Bigelow Lovell, Osterville, 92 caterpillars, 5 egg clusters. Mulberry Corner, Osterville, 33 caterpillars, 3 egg clus- ters. Plains, near school-house,.133 caterpillars, 2 egg•clusters. Mr. Wallace Ryder, Cotuit, 45 caterpillars, no egg clus- ters. Dr. Coolidge, Cotuit, 31 caterpillars, 1 egg cluster. Mr. Horace Fisher, Cotuit, 8 caterpillars, no egg clusters. Mr. Wallie Harlow, Cotuit, 28 caterpillars, 2 egg clusters. During the scout of these colonies for egg clusters dur- ing the fall of 1909, only thirteen egg clusters were found 78 in all, which is very favorable to the extermination of several of the colonies the coming season. A colony we had at Mr. Horace Sears' place at Cotuit High Grounds, where we killed 4,000 caterpillars and found twenty-one egg clusters in 1907-08, was tended in 1909 and carefully scouted for both caterpillars and egg clusters, but nothing was found and the colony stamped out. All the above infestations are ready for the burlap sea- son of 1910, and none present special difficulties in the way of suppression. HARRY W. BODFISH, Local Superintendent. REPORT Or TREE WARDEN. The work of the Tree Warden the past year has been al- most wholly confined to the fight against the elm beetle. The beetles have been very prevalent and active in our section for a number of years, and it has been necessary to spray all the elms in the Town. This was done last year with the exception of a few trees in Osterville, these it was impossible to cover before the foliage had been stripped. These should be among the first to be sprayed this year. In addition to the elm beetle we have the canker worm in a short section of our street trees in Centerville; they come early and are not particular what they feed on, eating elm, maple, or linden as soon as the leaf opens. This will re- quire an early spraying in this small section. The only money expended besides that for spraying; was for the necessary trimming and digging around young trees. HARRY W.

To the School Committee of Barnstable: In accordance with the rules of the School Committee, I have the honor to submit my fifth annual report on the public schools, for the year ending December 31, 1909, the same being the nineteenth.in the series of Superintendents' reports. SCHOOL BUILDINGS. .REPAIRS$ ACCOMPLISHED. In addition to ordinary repairs on all the school buildings, special repairs were made as follows: Barnstable: New floor and new desks and seats in grammar school room. Hyannis. : New sanitary system in Training School. Centerville: Additional coat of paint to exterior of building. Osterville: New cellar and new'heating system installed. Marstons Mills: Exterior of building painted, one side of roof shingled. Santuit: Exterior of building painted. Well driven. Cotuit: Fence erected in front of grammar school building. 94 REPAIRS NEEDED. This subject belonging specifically to the School Board, and involving the questions of appropriations and taxation, suggestions made by the Superintendent should be under- stood as tentative merely. New heating and ventilating apparatus and improved sanitary conveniences are needed at Barnstable. Better basement accommodations are needed at West Barnstable to meet the crowded conditions likely to obtain there. Improved sanitary conditions and new furniture are badly needed at Marstons Mills. The erection of a new grammar school building'at Cotuit would be about the only, really satisfactory solution of the problem there. The present building is a piece of patch- work; ventilation, heating and lighting are all unsatisfac- tory, and the sanitary system detestable; and all this though every reasonable effort has been made to improve these conditions. The radical improvements needed here would cost nearly as much as the building itself is worth. Proper playground facilities are needed at the Elizabeth Lowell school. Improvements, similar to those suggested for Barnstable, should be made later at Centerville. The exits at the grammar school buildings at Barnstable, Centerville and Cotuit are unsafe in case of fire, and proper action in this regard should take precedence over all other repairs. Should only a portion of the above suggestions be adopted, it is evident that the appropriations for "Repairs" are hardly likely to be less in the future than in the past. TRANSPORTATION. The chief annoyances incident to this costly factor in our 95 school administration can be lessened only as drivers can be found who are competent to effectively control children; but here, as in the matter of obtaining competent teachers, the demand greatly exceeds the supply. ' A barge was added in the Santuit section during the latter part of the fall term. Should this arrangement be continued, the total cost of transportation is likely to be not less than forty-two hundred dollars annually. MEDICAL INSPECTION. Further experience with medical inspection, in the schools throughout the state, demonstrates without question its high value, both in safe-guarding the health of the pupils in.general and in restoring to many unfortunate sufferers from physical defects, such as adenoids, power to compete with their fellows once again on equal terms. The matter should be treated not as a fad, but as a distinct addition to the,future safety and well-being of the children, and the amount appropriated for the purpose should be such as to allow inspection at least once a term in every schoolroom in the town. RESIGNATIONS AND APPOINTMENTS. Several important changes took place during. the year. Early in January, Mr. %emira Baker, principal of the Centerville school, resigned, after an enviable record, both as teacher and citizen, of over a quarter of a century's faith- ful service to the town. Mr. Baker's teaching was notable for its clearness, accuracy, thoroughness and efficiency, and his graduates were, for many years, considered among the best prepared among those entering the High school. Mr. Baker was, later in the year, unanimously elected to the principalship of the grammar school at Barnstable, but was 96 unable to accept. Many among the town's leading citizens have reason to be deeply grateful to Mr. Baker for the thorough training received under his hands. Mr. Allen B. Doty, after three years' successful work it Barnstable, resigned to accept a more remunerative position at Mansfield. Mr. A. Monroe Stowe, principal of the Training school, Miss Harriet C. Moore, teacher of the fifth grade in -the same school, and Miss Elizabeth M. Davis, teacher of the Centerville primary school, all teachers of unusual ability, resigned in June. All now occupy positions superior to any we would be able to offer. Shortly before the opening of the fall term, Mr. Edward H. Leonard, principal of the Elizabeth Lowell high school, to which he had given many months of hard work, resigned to accept an attractive business opening, and Miss Alice M. Crowell, assistant in the Barnstable high school, whose place during leave of absence had been filled by Miss Aimee E. Currier and Miss Letitia M. Cahoon, was unable to re- turn for the fall term. The vacancies occurring from the resignations noted above were filled in their order by the following appointments: Richard C. Wilton, followed by Alton W. Reed; Clarence E. Michels, Andrew G. Johnson, Louise K. Morss, Mary McConnel, Chas. L. Gifford and Lena B. Nutter. Lida S. Whittemore was appointed part-time assistant at West Barnstable. All the appointees had had experience in teaching. ENROLMENT, ATTENDANCE, ETC. The past school year showed the largest enrolment, mem- bership and attendance on record. The school census of 1909, however, seems to show clearly that the slight but steady growth in school population for several years past 97 has ceased. We may henceforth look for.a slight decrease in enrolment annually. Among the most marked changes are the increasing enrolment at West Barnstable and the decreasing enrolment at Cotuit. The abnormal proportion attending the high schools is discussed elsewhere. The percentage of attendance, except in one village, has been fairly satisfactory. We have had but very few cases of truancy.or of corporal punishment, and those of our teachers who have taught elsewhere commend the general spirit of 'co-operation shown by Barnstable pupils: FINANCIAL. The total expenditures for all the school departments the past year amounted to $31,257.02, being $109.56 less than those of the year preceding. The expenditures for "School Purposes" exceeded the appropriations available by $349.81 ; those for "Text-books and Supplies" were $9.95 less than the appropriation; those for "Transportation" $66.63 less than the appropriations ; those for "Repairs" $887.67 in excess of the appropriation. The excess expenditure under "School Purposes" was due in part to the maturing of the salary schedule adopted three years ago, nearly all of our grade teachers having now remained with us long enough to become entitled to the maximum rate. Nominal increases in the salaries of the high school assistants, an increase in that of the principal of the Elizabeth Lowell school, and the employment of a part- time assistant at West Barnstable account for the rest. Expenditures for "Text-books and Supplies" were kept within the appropriation simply by refusing, to purchase beyond it. By so.doing, however, the schools had to go without books that could have been profitably used. An unpresented "Transportation" bill remained unpaid at the end of the fiscal year. Had this been paid the expendi- 98 tures under this head would have about equalled the ap- propriation. The excess expenditure under "Repairs" was due chiefly to extraordinary repairs at Osterville and at the Training_ School. At the latter school the crematory sys- tem in the south wing was found to be in a wornout and dangerous condition. It was .replaced by a modern. sani- tary water system at a cost of about four hundred dollars. At the Osterville school a completely new heating system was installed at a cost of about four hundred fifty dollars. Both systems appear to be giving satisfaction. SUMMARY OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES. 7'otal Avaelable Appropriatio)as Toted Expenditures Dgfixiency School purposes, $22,946 12 . $23,295 93 $349 81 Text-books, supplies, 1,450 00 1,440 05 +9 95 Repairs, 1,500 00 2,387 67 887 67• Transportation, 4,200 00 4,133 37 +66 63 $30,096 12 $31,257 02 $1,160 90 APPROPRIATIONS NEEDED FOR 1910. Reckoning on no increase in the teaching force or in the salaries of teachers or janitors, the amount needing to be appropriated for "School Purposes" for the ensuing year will be not less than $300 more than the sum expended under that heading during.1909. Should the present abnormal enrolment in the high schools continue, an appropriation for "Text Books and Supplies" equal to that of last year will be barely sufficient. The contemplated purchase of new text books in physiology and hygiene and individual dictionaries for the upper ele- mentary grades could not be made because of the large sum necessarily expended for high school books. 99 "Transportation," with the additional expense of the Santuit barge, will need at least as much as last year. In its estimate for "Repairs," the Board has planned for extensive repairs and improvements in many buildings, especially in that at Barnstable. :In the matter of increase of salaries within the last few years, Barnstable compares favorably with other towns in the county. Yet the salaries of most of the teachers bear little relation to value given. Long years of costly and laborious preparation are followed by hard work in the most trying and nerve-wrecking of all professions, work usually far array from home and performed under a constant fire of criticism and fault-findinb. And all this for a financial return which permits of living but meanly, with little or no opportunity of saving for the inevitable."rainy day." Is it any wonder that wbat should be a profession becomes a makeshift, to the loss of all concerned? Recent inquiries concerning teachers in our own county show that about five-sixths are teaching elsewhere than in their home town, a majority pay board for the 52 weeks of the year, and about half contribute to the support of others. Stringency in the money market is hardly. likely to ensue from investments in steel stock by these teachers. Con- ditions outside the matter of salaries, make the schools of our town costly, but they are conditions which cannot be helped. While Barnstable his done well within the last few years in the matter of increase of salaries, we should not deceive ourselves in the matter of results. The increase has not been commensurate with the increased cost of living, nor do the salaries now paid begin to compare with those in the cities and larger towns, where the work is less difficult and the opportunities wider than with us. The difficulty of obtaining competent teachers has constantly increased, until 100 it seems hardly possible that the situation could become worse. In considering the whole matter, the thoughtful voter will hardly fail to act upon the belief that the efficient teacher will do work even more valuable, to the future well- being of the town than will the stone crusher and the road roller. Good roads are valueless without good citizens to use them, and Barnstable wants both. PROGRESS OF THE SCHOOLS. No marked progress has been made during the year in the solution of the difficulties somewhat fully outlined in last year's report. Most of these remain with us yet, unconquered and unchanged. In the elementary schools emphasis has been laid upon the use of the mother-tongue, and an attempt has been made to modernize the course in arithmetic. Simple concrete geometry has been substituted for elementary algebra in the ninth grade. The teaching of history and civil government, though faithfully done, still in many cases leaves much to be desired. It is too often formal, detached from life and unillumined by those illustrations and examples which would tend to awaken in the pupil a real interest in the life about him and a desire to help it along. The work in nature study, of inestimable value when rightly conducted, remains wofully inadequate, largely due to the defective training received by the teachers. So also in the training of the hand, on the fundamental importance of which all thoughtful laymen and educators agree, little or nothing has been done, except that called for by the work in drawing. The careful and comprehensive planning and effective teaching in the latter subject merits special mention, as also does the work in music. 101 It is worthy of mention that in the one other county in. the state in which the physical and financial conditions affecting the schools closely resemble our own, twenty out of thirty-two towns have some form of manual training. Although several important changes have occurred in the teaching force of the elementary schools, the work has been carried on by the new instructors with comparatively little loss. The improved conditions brought about at Barnsta- ble and West Barnstable by the employment of part-time assistants greatly exceed in value the additional cost in- volved. The Santuit school is at present probably the one offering the most difficult conditions to meet successfully, and the faithful efforts of its instructor deserve the active co-operation of the parents. The Training School has carried on its characteristic work with little interruption. The report on the school, by Principal Wm. A. Baldwin, may be found, elsewhere. Some of the many difficult problems confronting our high schools were discussed in the 1968 report. An abnormally large enrolment in both schools has made the solution of these problems still more difficult. High school enrolment in the majority of towns varies from nine to fifteen per cent. of the total enrolment; in Barnstable it is over twenty per cent. It is doubtful if this record is equalled by any other town in the State.. At the Barnstable High school the assembly room cannot accommodate. all the pupils. The classrooms seating thirty, and the freshman class enrolling forty-seven, this class must be conducted in two divisions, at a great loss of time and energy. The increased enrolment at the Elizabeth Lowell High school has made the problem there more acute also. The maintenance of two bigh school plants, together with B—s 102' the large comparative enrolment and the cost of transporta- tion, entails an unusually heavy financial burden, the cost per pupil being about double that for pupils of the cle- mentary schools. While doubtless a few attend the high school because they have nothing else to do, nevertheless this large com- parative enrolment must have real significance. It must mean that parents are more and more coming to realize the value of high school work, both as fitting its pupils for efficient daily living and as pointing the way and furnishing the inspiration to continued self-improvement. This con- fidence puts a heavy responsibility on school officials and school teachers for the proper organization and effective teaching of suitable courses of study. But the adoption of such courses is often delayed by the conservatism common to rural communities, ' and their effective teaching is rendered difficult by the heavy hand of traditional methods. We are wronoing our children, who cannot help themselves, when we are content with the same school methods and aims which obtained twenty years ago or more. We are not even doing our duty in fitting them for present condi- tions. It is for us to anticelpate as far as possible the life of twenty years ahead and to give of our best to fit our children for that life. The Barnstable High school offers at present two courses, an English-Latin and an English-Commercial course. The English-Latin is supposed to fulfill the double function of a college-preparatory course and a general course. The record made by its graduates now in higher institutions indicates that under its present instructors the first function is being adequately fulfilled. That such a course can give equally successful preparation for the graduate going at once into the active life of the work-a-day world is more than doubtful; it does not and cannot do so. Various high 103 .schools offer many courses under many names, but the one course most needed in the small high school, a Citizens' Course, which will fit the college and the non-college can- dilate each equally well for his immediate future, has not yet been devised. A commercial course in a high school which dealt only in strictly commercial subjects would be undesirable, as tend- ing to that too early specialization which may yet prove a serious social menace. In our own course the four years of English should be retained and strengthened and three years' work substituted for two in French and in German. Additional facilities for the teaching of Banking should also be provided. The report of Principal Boody may be found elsewhere. The building up of the Elizabeth Lowell High school, from its modest beginnings, has been a laborious and often a somewhat discouraging task. The disastrous effects of constant change of principals have been ever present with us. Some of these have been young men of limited ex- perience and widely varying ideas and ideals, with little knowledge of, and'at times little sympathy with, the com- munity in which they worked. Such conditions render the steady development of the pupils and efficient organization of the school impossible. What is needed now is close adherence to the course of study and continued hard wort: by the pupils. The drawback of inadequately prepared pupils will be felt less severely in the future, as the gram- mar school is no longer overcrowded. The membership in the high school'itself will also be considerably reduced in the near future. Under the present conditions and with the present teaching force, not more than two courses of study can be offered, with limited electives. A commercial course 104 would require a third instructor and an additional room, An. improvement in discipline and an increased spirit of study marked the fall term. The report of Principal Gifford may be found elsewhere. Barnstable has done much in the past which indicates a desire of constant advancement. The building of the Training School at heavy expense, the abolition of isolated schools, the early employment of a superintendent, and later of competent supervisors in drawing and in music, the con- stant improvement of school buildings and the erection of two high school-, the generous supply of chemical and physical apparatus, the increase in salaries, the employment of part-time assistants, the careful attention given by the School Board to suggestions intended to improve the work of the schools—all indicate that we cannot justly be charged with that ultra-conservatism which finds its most congenial home in the average rural comnninity. But much remains to be clone. There is no more deadly blight on progress than individual or community self- satisfaction. We have too much yet to do to permit us to stop and "point with pride" to what may have been already accomplished. A few of the more immediate needs of the schools may be briefly stated as follows: Economy of time by closer attention to the essentials of the fundamental studies of the common schools and the elimination of antique processes and useless subjects. More effective teaching of applied hygiene. A reasonable amount and kind of simple hand training, History and civil government taught with more direct reference to life. Radical revision of the course of study for the first year of the high school. 105 A larger relative amount of time given to science in the high school. Utilization of the Barnstable high school grounds for ornamental, agricultural and athletic purposes, in line with the most progressive schools. Maintenance of a high standing in the high school by . stricter entrance requirements and by requiring the total amount of work in any course to be equal in difficulty and time required to that in the college-preparatory course. Continued co-operation with the teachers by the parents in helping the young people toward better and more useful living. However important methods and courses may be, the most valuable factors in the direct education of the child are still the teacher and the parent. Given a teacher of native ability, training and experience, with patience towards the faults and weaknesses, and sympathy with the aspirations and enthusiasms of the yoimy, and receiving the active,support of the parents, we should have good schools, though school boards, supervisors, superintendents and educational theo- rists in general should retire for a while into cold storage. A witty woman writer has recently said, "It is a self- evident fact that for the thoroughly successful teacher there is but one. standard: he must be an angel for temper, a demon for discipline, a chameleon for adaptation, a.diplo- matist for tact, an optimist for hope, and a hero for cour- age. To these common and easily acquired qualities of mind and heart, he should add india-rubber nerves and a cheerful willingness to trust a large portion of his reward to some other world than this." Respectfully submitted, G. H. GALGER. 106 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BARN- STABLE HIGH SCHOOL. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools, Dear Sir: This last year has I think been the most filled with work of any since I have been principal of the school. In the fall term there was an enrolment of 119 and we closed the year 1909 with 115 pupils on our list, 15 more than the assembly room can accommodate. The size of the incoming class, numbering as it did 47 pupils, made it necessary to divide the class in Algebra into two divisions. In English and English History it was not possible from the number of teachers and the time at their disposal to retain the class in two divisions, and in con- sequence of this the teachers of History and English have been obliged to conduct recitations in these subjects in the assembly room, as the recitation rooms have each a seating capacity of but 30-17 less than required for the class. It is but justice to these two teachers to state that they have worked cheerfully and faithfully despite the handicap of so large a class. GIFTS. Mr. James Otis has given us still further proof of his interest in the welfare and work of the school by his gifts of two large pictures which hang on the malls of the main room, the one of the cathedral of Notre Dame and the other of the spire of Ste. Chapelle, and of a large album contain- ing photographs of places and chateaux of especial interest to.the classes in French. 107 AN ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. As a firm believer in the benefits derived from athletic sports rightly conducted it seems to me that it is time that a B. H. S. Athletic Association were formed to have in its control and under supervision all athletic games and con- tests held in the name of the school. The directors of this association should be chosen from the school board, the alumni association, and the school. Such an association could take upon itself as one of its most important duties the raising of funds for the proper grading of land to the west of the school building for an .athletic field. That athletic field is coming some day and as a friend of the school has said to me, "It is better that the alumni and other friends of the school should have a part in the de- velopment of the grounds than that some one individual should do it all." An athletic association working in co-operation with the alumni could so arouse public interest in this matter that we could have in the near future an Alumni Field, which the boys and girls would thoroughly appreciate and enjoy, from which they would derive benefit, and of which the town would be proud. THE COLLEGES. These questions have been put to me: "Don't you think you are educating your pupils away from the Cape? Don't you think you are turning their attention too much to tech- nical schools and colleges, and not enough to the develop- ment of the resources of Cape Cod?" My reply is: We are trying not to educate them away from the Cape, but for the Cape. The time is coming when a concerted movement will be 108 inaugurated toward the agricultural development of Cape Cod, and when it does come, we want B. H. S. men among the leaders. If we are gointi "back to the farm" it had better be by way of the agricultural college than by way of the high school. With this thought in mind, we urge upon those boys who have any leaning toward agricultural pursuits a course in the Massachusetts Agricultural College at Amherst. One of our boys has already been graduated from this college with high honors, two more are at present doing good work at this institution, and at least three other boys are prepar- ing to enter in a year or two. It is our earnest desire to see our boys and girls advance along the lines of work for which they seem best fitted. We watch them carefully, consult with them often, seeking ever to discover that one line of endeavor in which each can do the most good; then we encourage 'them and urge them to get the best preparation possible for their future work, whatever that work may be. We are not educating them away from the Cape. We could not if we would. The homing instinct is too strong. Last June, the examinations of the College Entrance Examination Board were given at the school under the supervision of Rev. Richard Owen, as a result of which one of our graduates entered Barnard College. Three of our boys entered Pratt Institute in September, making a total of five at that institution. All the girls of last year's graduating class, four in number, entered the Hyannis State Normal School. One of our recent graduates, having secured the degrees of A. B. and A. M., is now studying for a Ph. A An- other, after doing post-graduate work at her college, is working for a higher degree at Columbia. 109 The reports which all these young people make to us and the happiness they find in their work contribute to make us all the more certain that we are doing right in. urging our pupils not to let their education cease with their gradua- tion from the high school. In closing this.report I should like to express my thanks to those parents who by their co-operation with me in my work and by their words of appreciation and encourage- ment have helped me in my efforts to promote the welfare of their boys and girls.

Nautical Training School, 1 112 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE ELIZABETH LOWELL HIGH SCHOOL. SUPERINTENDENT G. H. GALGER, Dear Sir: I submit a brief report of conditions and needs of the Cotuit High School. That the people of this section of Barnstable fully appreciate the new building, its equipment and its possibilities, is shown by the constantly increasing attendance and the ambition of the pupils for advancement. Forty-eight students were enrolled during the Fall term of 1909 and but for the sad loss by drowning of two promising boys the main room would have been fully occupied, a condition unlooked for so soon after the erection of the new building. The school has been kept well supplied with apparatus and books and a typewriter has been added. Frequent changes in the teaching force have had a demor- alizing effect, especially on the evolution of the course of study. The fact that the whole work must be done by only two instructors, has and will for the present, prevent the school offering more than two complete courses of study and attain to its standard demanded of the High schools. A commercial course is desired by a few, but this is im- possible unless another teacher should be added. While diplomas may be awarded for good and sufficient work in such a course, the larger number prefer to pursue studies that entitle them to admission to the Normal schools and colleges. The graduating class of 1910 number eleven, and nearly all are ambitious to continue their education in higher schools of learning, and the larger percentage in the State Normal School at Hyannis. We trust this class will 113 be able to raise money sufficient to take their proposed trip to Washington during the sprint vacation. A. movement will be made to raise funds for the, purpose of clearing land in rear of building for playground purposes and it is hoped that liberal contributions will be made. The Principals of our High schools, both of Cotuit and w Hyannis, in their reports for the past several years, have appealed to parents to co-operate with them in the matter of home study. I find this the greatest need in this school, and I earnestly wish to emphasize the importance of home work and regular attendance, as few pupils if any, are able to do the required work, unless they study out of regular hours at least two hours daily. r Our attendance is fairly good in pleasant weather con- ditions, but the geographical location proves unfavorable to good attendance in bad weather. Yours respectfully, CHAS. L. GIFFORD. 114 REPORT ON THE TRAINING SCHOOL. Mr. GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools, Barnstable, Mass. Dear Sir: In response to your kind invitation I am glad to follow what is becoming an annual custom and submit through you a few words regarding the Training School for the consideration of my fellow citizens. From year to year different phases of the work have been discussed. This year I shall confine myself to suggesting some of the advantages and disadvantages which are here found. In any school which is being used as a practice school for inexperienced student teachers there are certain to be some disadvantages, such as poor discipline and errors in teaching. In the Hyannis Training School great care has been exercised in planning and administering the work so as to keep the disadvantages at a minimum and to more than offset these by the inany advantages provided. The reader may be interested to know how this is done. In the first place, great pains is taken to provide a first- class teacher for each of the six rooms in the Training School. During the past year $5,550 was expended for the six regular teachers, or an average of $925 each. Of this total amount the town paid $3,087 and the state $2,463. This amount of money, if wisely expended, should secure very strong teachers. During the first half of the year the teaching is practi- cally all done by these teachers and the school is a model school. During the second half of each year the Senior Normal students who have been in training at the Normal School for one and a half years go into the Training School 115 to learn from the Training School teachers how to do the real work of the class room. The regular teacher of the room is responsible both for discipline and for teaching. The pupil teachers act as assistants or apprentices. This males it possible to give much more attention to backward children and to do .many things which could not well be done in a school with only one teacher. Resides the regular teachers the Training School receives the benefit of expert supervision in music, drawing, physi- cal training and industrial work and in all of the regular subjects. This is furnished by the State at a cost of more than $700. So much for the teaching. Let us turn now to the matter of equipment. The Town furnishes for the Training School books, paper, and other material it the same rate per pupil as to the other schools of the Town. The State supplements such supplies by purchasing such books and other equip- ment as may, from time to time, be needed to put this into the most favored class of the schools of the State. The pupils of the Training School have also free access to Normal School laboratories, manual training room, cooking room and to any other appliances which may seem desirable for broadening their horizon. Classes in geography have the free use of the stereopticon with about one thousand fine lantern slides; opportunities are even given upper grade children to see Venus, Saturn and other planets through the . fine Normal School telescope under the leadership of the instructor in astronomy. The Normal School library is well provided with books on plants, animals, biography, and all other subjects which come.into the work of the children. These are at all times accessible for use in the Training School. It will readily be seen that it is possible to afford, here in the Hyannis Training School, opportunities for an educa- 116 tion equal to that offered by any public school in the State. The school is often visited by experienced experts in education. These approve of the general plan of the school and compare its work favorably with that of the best schools of the country. Those of us who have know the school intimately for the past ten years know that great changes have been made in that time. These changes are, I believe, directly in line with changes which are being advocated for all public; schools by the new State Board of Education. But many other things ought to be done. We should continue to move steadily forward, improving our schools as we strive to improve our roads, our oyster lots and our cranberry bogs. The State stands ready to help us with anything which seems reasonable and fairly certain to improve the public schools. Mutual co-operation will insure.continued im- provement in school opportunities for our children. Very respectfully yours, W. A. BALDWIN. 117 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING. To Mr. GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: The year's work in drawing has been marked by con- stant and united efforts on the part of your supervisor, the grade teachers and the pupils to make every lesson as good as possible. We understand each other and work together with a directness of purpose, impossible two years ago. The pupils as a body are eager to do their best. The model drawing and especially the nature drawing of the fall term, shows increased power to see essentials and to express them with a degree of accuracy and precision. The December lessons were again devoted to the planning and making of Christmas gifts. Some creditable work was done in every school. All these lessons emphasized the usefulness of drawing by showing its relation to the things made. Simple working drawings told the size, shape and necessary details of the objects made. Pupils who made ornamental designs to be applied to cloth, brass or leather, learned that the addition of fitting ornament gives beauty to many articles in common use and increases their value. Design has been presented in connection with these and similar exercises in construction and decoration. Little as we have attempted in these lines we have felt the need of good examples of decoration in each building. We want charts showing examples of flowering plants and the beau- tiful shapes obtained by making side views, top views, sec- tions of their parts. Such charts should not be treated as copies. Their study should lead each pupil to see that from his own nature-drawings he can derive new forms that belong to himself alone. When he uses these forms in his designs he feels the joy of creating that comes to him who 118 ?succeeds in making pleasing patterns that are his own. Moreover such designs, crude though they may be, stimu- late to further efforts, as copying designs never.can. ZD Valuable collections of good designs might be made in each grammar school if we began, at once, to save and bring in examples of printing, of artistic lettering, of wallpapers, of scraps of beautiful textiles suitably mounted, pictures of furniture, of Greek vases, of,modern pottery, in fact of any object beautiful in form or color. These should be conveniently arranged for use and each example should illustrate some principle of design or show harmonious coloring. Two series of drawing books recently published have unusual merit along these lines and would form a stimulating nucleus for each collection. The village librarians would undoubtedly be willing to place on their shelves a few books of reference that would be helpful to all interested in design as related to structure or ornament. A copy of The School Arts Book" along- side other magazines in the reading rooms would offer a never failing source of pleasure and profit to teachers and pupils. The Barnstable high school is indebted to Mr. James Otis for aid along these lines. He has brought to it from Paris many examples of French Gothic architecture. He has famed two especially attractive pictures of Notre Dame and of the spire of. Sainte Chapelle, which .hang in the assembly room, while others are arranged for class room use. Systematic form study has been commenced in the primary and intermediate grades, because we find in the grammar and high schools vague notions of the facts of form, and a ]Knowledge of these facts is the basis of clear thinking in mathematics as well as in drawing. These when properly presented can be profitably learned in the lower grades, as Kindergartens long ago demonstrated. 119 Nearly three years' service in the Barnstable schools, with weekly visits in each school room, has enabled me to . watch closely the development of the children and forced me to form certain conclusions in regard to the needs and possibilities of rural schools. One of these may seem self evident to an outsider, though as teachers we try to ignore it. Village schools with from three to five grades in one room cannot accomplish for individuals or classes results easily obtained in larger classes made up of one grade. We should keep in mind the ideal courses of such schools, but our rural schools must teach, with emphasis, the vital things that our boys and girls need to know; these essentials, well taught, will not only awaken the desire for more knowledge but develop efficient, self reliant workers. Power and strength to make good, will come by doing a few things as well as they can be done, in the time at our command, not by getting a slight acquaintance with many. I wish to call attention to the great difference in the advantages offered to the middle grades in the two-room as compared with the three-room buildings. The division into primary, intermediate and grammar rooms enables the middle grades to do far better work than can be done when the fourth -rade. must remain "clown stairs" with the younger children and the fifth go "up-stairs" to be taught with four other grades. If the amount of time that can be given to each grade in the two-room buildings should be compared with that given where there are three rooms, the injustice would be apparent, and a uniform arrangement demanded by parents. Mention was made in last year's report of the manual work done at West Barnstable by Mr. Perrin. Care and accuracy were insisted upon by him at every step in those lessons. To-day the value of such instruction is shown by the present drawing in the high school, of the pupils whose habits were formed in that school. The unusual size of the entering class in the Barnstable high school has made it impossible to give bench work the time necessary for systematic instruction. The tools are used to make articles needed in the drawing room, .and by individuals for special work. The Elizabeth Lowell school has a larger enrolment than ever before and needs better accommodations for its draw- ing classes than the assembly room furnishes. Better work could be done with less interruption of other studies if a suitable place were provided for drawing and manual work. The unfinished room over the entrance stairs could be finished and furnished with chairs and tables at small ex- pense with great gain to the school. Drawing was made an elective subject in September for the seniors and juniors of the high schools. The advanced classes are in consequence smaller and more time can be given to individuals who really desire to draw. The young men who continued the study are working with a definite purpose and doing work that will bear comparison with that done in technical high schools. The science teachers of the Barnstable high school are requiring drawing as a means of expression whenever a drawing will.illustrate a statement or make a demonstration clearer. This demand will stimulate the work all over town because it will impress upon the grammar school pupils the fact that drawing helps them express themselves if they can make simple, clean-cut drawings. When a boy or girl has been drawing an hour and a half every week for nine or ten years, careless drawing is as inexcusable as incorrect spell- ing. In conclusion I wish to express my appreciation of the earnestness, courtesy and good will that characterize all 121 with whom I have been associated. Because of this unfail- ing co-operation and faithfulness we are able to record a steady gain in the quality of the work in this department. Respectfully submitted, LUELLA FAY MAYNARD. Feb. 2. 1910. 122 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC. To Mr. GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: In my last report I tried to outline briefly the plan of work which we, the teachers and I,. are endeavoring to follow in music. I can truthfully say that throughout the town a decided improvement has been made in taking hold of the work as well as in the reading, which demands the closest concentration and a thorough knowledge of the fun- damental principles, in tone quality and in a greater ac- curacy in regard to pitch, which has been accomplished by the listening plan; or in other words, more listening and less singing. Much individual attention has been given to the monotones and as a result the number of so-called mon- otones has diminished rapidly, although there are still a number of children on the listening roll. For the tireless energy and unceasing labor of the teachers, as well as their kind consideration and co-operation, I wish to express my earnest appreciation and gratitude. It is their daily labor that counts and without it the most conscientious supervis- ion would be, if not quite useless, at least of much less value. It is impossible to follow any method exactly and un- swervingly, but by adapting the Weaver Method to the conditions and circumstances under which we are working, and following it systematically, a steady improvement is being shown in all the grades, especially in the lower grades. The limited time is of course a serious disadvantage, yet in spite of this drawback, I am pleased to be able, to state that several weeks ago a two-part exercise in the key of C, 4-4 time, was sung at sight, correctly, by a class composed of the second and third grades, which to my mind goes to 123 prove that we are working in the right direction. By hav- ing a lesson plan for every lesson, time is economized and every minute of the lesson hour finds the children occupied with one of the following phases of the work: 'Technical work, such as names of keys, time, principles, etc., ear training or sight reading. Spending a few minutes at the beginning of each lesson breathing properly and attacking vowel sounds with ease .and accuracy has proved of great value, and it is to thA that both the teachers and I have attributed a greater facility and enjoyment in singing. It will, I hope, also succeed eventually in banishing every trace of embarrassment, especially among the older boys and girls, which any attempt at individual work now causes. In some of the grammar Grades we have been able to accom- plish a very little in the line of biography and music form, and the vigor and enthusiasm with which this step has been attended is very gratifying. The chorus work in both the Elizabeth Lowell High school and the larnstable High school is decidedly more satisfactory than at this time last year and will, I earnestly hope, continue to.improve, so that we may gradually work up to such a degree of excellence as to be able to render such selections as Wagner's "Pilgrim's Chorus," or Handel's "Largo" in a creditable manner. Some of the girls of the Barnstable High school have formed a Glee Club, and under my direction meet Mondays and Fridays, when, although but a short time is available, we are able to accomplish a little in the line of three-part Songs. In closing, I would say that the question "Of what use is music in our public schools?" has occurred to me persis- tently of late, and after much consideration I have come to the following conclusions: Music is of no use in our schools if it cannot be given its proper place, and by that I, 124 mean its due consideration. If it is to be taken as an "aside," perhaps "to kill time," in our High schools for example, it is doing more harm than good, but if it is given undivided attention for an allotted time each week, when systematic study is given to the correct placing and emis- sion of tones, to the technical work, to reading music at sight and finally to singing songs in an appreciative man- ner, with that sense of rythmn, shading and purity of tone- quality which only the love for music, together with a real knowledge of its underlying principles can acquire, then it is of priceless value. It is true that in school we can only get the least possible glimpse of the great masters, but to be able to appreciate and above all, to be able to examine for ourselves the rich treasures of music when we enter our life work, is a privilege which can never be fully appre- ciated. lts worth is not to be counted as gold or silver ,perhaps, but as an inspiration, a help and a comfort which will last us throughout our lives. And so it is, I trust, that we have music in our schools, not to learn a few songs, which shall mean nothing in later years, but to get as large an insight as possible into music as one of the finest arts in all the world. Respectfully submitted, ETHEL M. HORSMAN. 125 REPORT OF THE COMMERCIAL INSTRUCTOR. To Mr. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools : But little can be added to my reports of previous years. There are, however, two points which are worthy of men- tion. First, the increased interest on the part of the pupils from year to year, second, the attempt to make the course more.practical. Of the first I will speak but briefly. It is true that each year the pupils become more enthusiastic over the commer- cial work, each year the classes co-operate with nee more cheerfully and willingly. I feel that it is fitting to take . this opportunity of expressing my appreciation of the splendid effort the greater part of the present Junior and Senior classes are putting into their work. It is needless to say that the object of the commercial course is to fit the pupils to take up the work of stenog- raphy, typewriting and bookkeeping in offices and to do the work as business men desire it done. To this end we try each year to get in closer touch with actual working condi- tions—to make the course more practical. I have tried dur- ing the past year to get as many ideas as possible from prom- inent business men, to find out their methods of doing busi- ness, and how to apply what we are teaching in school to fit their needs. It would be of the greatest assistance to me if the business men of the town, who desire stenographers and bookkeepers, would tell me the conditions existing in their offices, just what they require of their bookkeepers and stenographers and how they wish it done. In training a boy or girl, if I knew exactly the position he or she would fill, I could give him or her special drill along that line in addition to the regular work of the school. 126 It often happens that a young stenographer who does ex- cellent work under the supervision of the teacher makes an utter failure of office work, because the conditions of the office are so different from those of the class room. In order to familiarize the pupils with miscellaneous dictation taken outside the classroom I have asked the principal whenever possible to dictate his letters to the pupils, to be taken clown in shorthand and transcribed later on the typewriter. The pupil is thus thrown entirely on his own responsibility ex- actly as he would be in an office. The pupils also do a large portion of the clerical work of the-school on the typewriters. In several instances we have sent pupils out to fill substitute positions as stenographers for a short time, accepting this work as an equivalent foir class room work. Just a word in closing about the future commercial course of the Barnstable High School, the ideal course. Such a course would include the present course somewhat extended and enlarged, more time for stenography and typewriting, corporation bookkeeping and banking added, and larger op- portunities afforded for office practice, so that the pupil may be taught to do a large number of things that he will be re- quired to do in business, such as taking letter press copies, cutting stencils, and many other things along this line, which he ought to know, but for which there is no,time at present. My thanks are due to the Principal of the Barnstable High School for the cordial and sympathetic way in which he has always responded to my suggestions for strengthen- ing the commercial course, and to the Superintendent of Schools for his helpful advice and unfailing courtesy. Respectfully submitted, GEORGIA Al. SIMONS, Commercial b1structor, 127 REPORT Or THE MEDICAL INSPECTOR To the HONORABLE SCHOOL COMPHITTEE of the Town of Barnstable: As School Physician for Barnstable Schools during 1909, I beg to submit the following report: Last year a careful examination of the school buildings was made, and various improvements suggested as necessary. This year especial attention has been given the personal el- ement, rather than the environment of our students. With the exception of the school at Barnstable, where the im- provements made and contemplated are being wisely made and conservatively carried out, conditions are much the same as outlined last year in my report. The more modern of the school buildings are very satisfactory, being readily kept clean, well-lighted, and the sanitary needs adequately pro- vided for. This is not true of the older buildings, those at Cotuit, (with the exception of the High School), Marstons Mills, Osterville, and Centerville. All these buildings are in such worn condition that it is well-nigh impossible to keep them clean, the light is insufficient, or the windows poorly-placed in regard to the position of the pupils, and heat and sanitation are very faulty. The High School build- ings at Hyannis and Cotuit are probably the best in the town, the buildings at Centerville and Osterville, in the matter of lighting and sanitation, undoubtedly the worst. The town makes large appropriations for its schools, but their efficiency could be materially increased by insuring to all our children, while in school, the same degree of light, warmth, and cleanliness that they enjoy in their own homes. Healthful conditions, physical and moral, are also for- warded by securing efficient and self-respecting janitors and 128 barge drivers, and any reasonable sum expended in trying to secure these should be regarded as well spent. Notwithstanding all these defects in our educational sys- tem, as practiced in the Town of Barnstable, the schools are in a generally healthy condition. The registers show a s,it- isfactory percentage of regular attendance, the teachers re- port favorably of the attenlion and industry of the pupils, there has been but little absence from illness, and no danger- ous contagion has menaced us. .An inspection of our bright- faced, eager, and intent school-cbildren must surely impress us with the idea that Cape Cod still produces brainy people, and although our methods must of necessity change, to keep pace with those of more densely-populated communities, we may well be proud of our schools, and of the young minds that are being trained there for the future battle with life. I must again call your attention to the absolutely inade- quate appropriation for School Physician. His work is of yearly increasing importance, and a sufficient appropriation should be made to provide for more frequent inspection; thereby minimizing the danger of noxious diseases infecting our schools, and providing for our growing children the ben- efit of such protection as we can give them, if we will.

Marstons Mills, Jan.. 10, 1911 To the Board of Health of the Town of Barnstable: Gentlemen:— Having been appointed Milk Inspector for the Town of Barnstable, and having been asked to give a synopsis of my work to the present time, I take pleasure in doing so. At the time of my appointment, I was.instructed by your Secretary, to inspect each dairy in town, at least four times during the ,year, and also to test the milk from each dairy, from time to time;as I thought necessary. Will say that I have made forty-four inspections exclusive of the people's dairies that I have inspected, who sell milk to the dairymen. Have tested thirty-four samples of milk, and in testing the thirty-four samples have found but three samples that tested below the Mass. Standard, which calls for 12.15 per cent. of total solids, of which 3.35 per cent. must be milk fat. To show you the importance of milk inspection, will say that the dairymen in town, and one or two out of town, who bring milk into this town to sell, have nine hundred and fourteen customers, and in the summer season supply nine- teen hundred and ten quarts of milk per day. At the beginning of my work, I think that the dairies in town compared well with the dairies in any town on the Cape; yet in the most of them I found room for consider- able improvement. When I have visited the different dairies after inspecting the cow stables, I have generally inspected the milk utensils, to see that they were properly washed; 117 and when at any time I have found the conditions were not satisfactory as to the way the dairy work was being done, the people in most cases have been willing and anxious to do as requested. As to the testing of milk, will say that when a sample of milk fell below the standard, and I have notified the dairy man as to the result of my test, which the law says that I must do within ten days, that in no instance has it happened the second time. There seemed to be no dishonesty in the matter, but the dairyman had not mixed the milk as thoroughly as he should have. If the dairymen will thoroughly mix the different cows' milk, when it is first drawn from the cows, I do not think that,there is a herd of cows in town, whose milk will not test well above the Mass. Standard. While there is a stardard up to which milk must test, yet as regards the people's health, I consider cleanliness above all. And you may visit the different dairies in town to-day, and you will find them as a whole, in much better condition than were in the past. As to what I have said about there being room for im- provement, will say that in my opinion the Inspector should be instructed to visit dairies more often, as I think that bet- ter results could be obtained if the Inspector kept more in touch with the.dairymen. Nearly all of the dairymen, during some part of the year, buy considerable milk from other.parties; yet they have no protection as to the quality or cleanliness of that milk, ex- cept what they can get from inspection, and yet after it passes into their possession they are responsible, as to the quality and cleanliness of it. Therefore although it means much more work for the In- spector, I think that very good results would be obtained, if each dairyman was instructed to notify the Inspector just before.buying milk of other parties, and the Inspector visits the places that the milk is coming from, to see that the con- 13-9 fig ditions are suitable, for the person to sell the dairyman milk. I I believe that nearly as much milk is spoiled by improper care, after it is delivered to the consumers, as there is before it leaves the possession of the producers. Ride along the street in most any village from nine to eleven o'clock in the morning, in warm weather, and you will see at several homes, milk in jars or cans on the piazza, that was left there several hours before by the dairyman, and frequently the producer is blamed because it sours more quickly than it should. Therefore it seems to me that as the expense would be very small, it might be a good plan to have some small cards with a few simple instructions printed on them, as to the proper care of milk in the home, and the re- quired number of them be given to each dairyman, and he be asked to place one in some conspicuous place in each customer's home. Massachusetts is fighting as hard, if not harder for pure milk, than any other state; and as far as I know, Barnstable has taken the lead along the line of milk inspection, among the Cape towns, and I feel that we have made a very creditable showing up to the present time. Very respectfully, 1 GEO. T. MECARTA, Milk Inspector. J- FOREST WARDEN'S REPORT. Report of Forest Warden for the year ending-1910: Month. No.of Fires. Cost of Fires.

To the School Cognmittee of Barnstable: In accordance with the rules of the School Committee, I have the honor to submit my sixth annual report on the public schools for the year ending December 31, 1910, the same being the twentieth in the series of Superintendents' reports. SCHOOL BUILDINGS. REPAIRS ACCOMPLISHED. Barnstable: New heating and ventilating system through- out, with new stack. Cotuit: New floor and new furniture in intermediate school; roof of grammar school building shingled. Centerville: New sheds and outbuildings. Hyannis: New chemistry table and additional seatings for the high school. Roof painted. Other villages: Miscellaneous repairs. REPAIRS NEEDED. Of the needed repairs specifically mentioned in last year's report those referring to Barnstable village and Cotuit have been in large part accomplished. For repairs still needed the reader is referred to the above-mentioned report. Ref- erence to the Osterville building is deferred pending the report of the Committee on School Buildings. 132 TRANSPORTATION. The barge added at Santuit last fall was retained through- out the year. This, with the increased cost of the other barges and of railroad transportation, resulted in a total expenditure of over forty-six hundred dollars under this head. Possibly to our already overcrowded curriculum we may have to add exercises in teaching the art of walking. MEDICAI. INSPECTION. Each year's experience shows more clearly the great value of adequate medical inspection. Much more has been done in this work this year than last and the Beard hopes that facilities for still broader work in the future can be offered. It would be of incalculable benefit to the men and women of tomorrow if communities could be brought to accept the Proved conclusions of medical authorities on such subjects as the age at which children should enter school, the length of the school day, proper seating, suitable exercise and other factors which go so far to make or mar the lives of the child- ren as men and women. RESIGNATIONS AND APPOINTMENTS. More than one-third of the teachers with whom the schools opened in January resigned during the year. Among the principals resigning, the scholarly ability of Mr. Michels, the earnestness and faithfulness of Mr. Perrin and the entbu- siasm and effectiveness of Mr. Gould deserve mention. Mr. Chas.L. Gifford resigned as principal of the Elizabeth Lowell High School, after a year of hard and effective work. Miss G. M. Simons, as instructor in the commercial department of the high school in Hyannis, gave abundant evidence of enthusiasm and ability in her four years of arduous effort to build up a strong course in that department. The uniformly 133 excellent work of Miss Peters resulted in a call to a much more attractive position,as was also the case with Miss Alice P. Paine. Of the teachers retiring, Miss Annie H. Chad- wick had given the longest service to the town, her work in a difficult position having been marked by rare thoroughness and comprehensiveness. Miss Sarah S. Ford, whose service was next in length to that of Miss Chadwick,showed unusual natural aptitude in dealing 'with young children, and the scholarly training of Miss Gregg was evident in the quality of her work. The Cotuit Grammar School suffered a severe loss in the inability of Mrs. Hall to return in the fall. No other school in the town has shown greater improvement in the last three years, teacher, parents and pupils having worked together to that end. Miss Ethel Horsman, super- visor of music, after two years of energetic and effective work, resigned to accept a less difficult position at a salary nearly double that paid by us. The following appointments were made to fill the vacancies caused by the above resignations Barnstable Grammar, Gen. F. Hopkins; West Barnstable Grammar, R. B. Houghton, Intermediate, Susie M. Merritt; Elizabeth Lowell High, LeRoy M. Handy, principal, Flor- ence L.Flewelling,assistant; Cotuit Grammar,A. M.Bruce, B. G. Nason, Helen L. Colby (substitutes), Harry L. Edge- comb; Santuit, Lucy H. Ryder, assistant; Osterville Gram- mar, Chas.L. Gifford; Training School, Grace V. Rowland, Carrie B: Dean, Mabel K. Baker; Commercial Instructor, Florence T. Davis; Supervisor of Music, S. Gertrude Tighe. ENROLMENT, ATTENDANCE, ETC. Enrolment, membership and attendance showed a slight increase over last year, itself a record year. The school cen- sus of 1910 showed a considerable increase of children of �34 school aae in town and this should be reflected in the enrol- ment next year. Attendance for the school year was hood, allowance Being made for the several outbreaks of contabi- ousodiseases. Cases of truaneyor of serious insubordination have been few and nearly all the teachers report helpful co- operation by the parents. SCHOOL FINANCES. The increasing; expenditures of the school department and the proportion of such expenditures to the total expenditures of the town justify a demand that the annual report shall deal as fully and clearly as possible with this problem,to the end that the sources of expense be clearly understood and that any additions to the appropriations be made in the di- rections most needed. A summary of the appropriations and expenditures of the past fiscal year follows: SUMMARY OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES. Total Available Balance Appropriations Expenditures or Deficiency School Purposes, $23,909 36 $23,526 29 +$383 07 Test-books, supplies, 1,450 00 1,448 77 +1 23 Repairs, 2,000 00 3,155 15 —1,155 15 Transportation, 4,200 00 4,606 25 —406 25 $31,559 36 $32,736 46 —$1,177 10 ANALYSIS AND ESTIMATES. An examination of the above summary shows a balance remaining from School Purposes of $383.07. Several coal bills under this account, however, were not presented in time for.payment. Had these been paid the expenditures would have about equalled the appropriations. 135 The expenditures for Text-books and Supplies were kept within the appropriation by the usual means. The expenditures under the head of Transportation show a considerable increase, due to the greater compensation de- manded by the contractors, the larger number of railroad tickets purchased and the employment of a barge in the Santuit district. The cost of installing the new heating and ventilating sys- tem at the Barnstable school proved greater than anticipated and an unforeseen expense was incurred in rebuilding the sheds and outbuildings destroyed by fire at Centerville. Other important items of expense under the head of Repairs were shingling the roof of the grammar school building at Cotuit and a new floor and new furniture for the intermedi- ate school, and a fitted chemistry table and additional seat- ing capacity for the high school at Hyannis. These, to- gether with an unusually large number of minor repairs, bring the total to the amount indicated. Among the increases in salaries taking place at various times during the year or at the bebinning of 1911, which the Board felt obliged to make were the following: Janitor of the Training School and the Barnstable High School, $100, making annual salary $800; smaller increases for other Janitors;. maximum salaries of grammar school principals raised to $765, the minimum remaining at $585 ; principal of the Barnstable High School $100, making annual salary $1,500; assistants in high schools, $50, making annual sal- aries $600 maximum, minimum remaining at $500. The salaries of our grade teachers remain at$495 per year for the maximum and $405 for the minimum. The maximum salary of grade teachers in the city of Boston, having no more difficult Nvork, to say the least, is $936. Estimates for 1911 will be approximately as follows School Purposes, teachers and janitors at present salaries, ti / 136 and allowing $2,000 for fuel and $300_ for miscellaneous items will need not less than $500 more than the suh) appto- priated therefor last year; Transportation, not less than $300 more than the sum appropriated therefor last year; Books and Supplies, $150 more than the sum appropriated therefor last year; Repairs, probably the same sum as voted last year. . Owing to possible salary changes and the variable income from tuition and the dog tax it is impossible to esti-: mate more closely than within three or four hundred dollars for School Purposes. TOWN, COUNTY AND COMMONWEALTH. In the tax for school purposes per thousand dollars of val- uation, the real test of the school burden assumed by a town, Barnstable, out of 354 towns in the state, stands one hun- dred ninetieth, 189 towns taxing themselves more heavily, among them Bourne at $7.70 per thousand, Provineetown $6.46, Orleans $5.87, Harwich $5.45; Dennis $5.37, Brew- ster$5.27. Barnstable taxes itself$5.00 per thousand. The little town of West Boylston ranks highest, with a tax of $9.64 per thousand. Barnstable spent per pupil last year for text-books and supplies $1.75. Figures from other towns for 1910 are not available, but according 'to the state report for 1909, the several towns in Barnstable county named below expended per pupil for books and supplies the amounts indicated: Sandwich $3.28, Mashpee $2.59, Yar- mouth $2.54, Orleans $2.39, Falmouth $2.37, Bourne $2.03, Brewster $1.86, Eastham $1.80, Harwich $1.76. THE SITUATION TO BE FACED. Among the important factors which necessarily call for heavy expenditures are the following: 137 1. Heavy expenses for transportation, clue to the immense territory covered by the town. 2. The maintenance of two high schools, with the conse- quent duplication of teachers and supplies. 3. The comparatively large number of men principals; re- quired by our many scattered school buildings. There appears to be no remedy in the first cage, since the establishment of a trolley line would be the only means of materially reducing such.expenses. Could one-half the sum now expended on transportation be devoted to obtaining and retaining competent teachers the gain would be incalculable. In the second case not only must the two plants be re- tained, but the expenditures will have to be increased, es- pecially if the smaller of the two schools is to offer advant-' ages equal to those, of the larder, and the work of each school is to be developed in the directions demanded by the life of today. Number three introduces a question serious enough to call for the most car.-ful consideration. Undoubtedly a.financial saving of a few hundred dollars could be made by the em- ployment of women instead of men principals, and for less compensation at least equal technical ability could be secured. To anyone, however, who looks upon the work of the teacher in any but the narrowest way the question involves much more than technical ability. Few who have studied the mat- ter impartially would deny that the boy who fails to come in contact with a man as teacher during his school career is likely to miss much of high value as to his viewpoint and attitude toward life. To develop in the best way the bodies, minds and souls of thirty or forty children would seem to call f'or energy, skill, ability and wisdom not less than that displayed by the skilled craftsman, yet we offer for the most difficult of all tasks a wage return inferior to that received by the skilled worker 138 in wood, iron and lead. In spite of the generous increase made by this town, we are still paying our grammar school principals less than one half the salaries offered by larger towns for work not more difficult than that we demand. In this connection the following curious argument has been made by some not having children in the schools, namely, that no salaries we could afford to offer would be large enough to retain superior teachers, therefore it is useless to make any advance; in other words, since we can hope to re- tain superior teachers only a short time anyway, let us be content with poor ones ! This may be the logic of the dollar, it certainly is not the logic of moral obligation. The question of retaining fairly competent men as principals of our grammar schools is squarely before us; it must' be answered at once, and can,be answered only by the parents as citizens and voters. The constantly increasing value of supervision in drawing and music is so fully appreciated that any lessening of effort in this direction would not be tolerated. The help given by our part-time assistants is of much greater value than is measured by the financial outlay, and regard for the children dictates the retention of such assistants. Since the expenditures for books and supplies for the year formed but 4j per cent. of the total school expenditures, and were insufficient properly to meet the needs of the schools, it is evident that no decrease is possible in this direction, es- pecially if the number of pupils enrolled in the schools con- tinues to increase. The liberal policy of the town in the care of its school buildings is worthy of high commendation. I know of few towns where a more consistent and efficient policy as regards their care and improvement is exercised by a School Board. I believe'it is a policy thoroughly approved by the towns- people. 139 The extreme difficulty in securing teachers and the gen- eral upward tendency of salaries make any material decrease of expenditure in that direction improbable. It is certain that any reduction in salaries is entirely out of the question. The number of vacancies occurring during the year made it necessary for the superintendent to spend a large amount of time in efforts, often fruitless, to find candidates of satisfac- tory training and experience. The task was an exceedingly discouraging one. Only by the expenditure of much time and by good fortune combined is it 'possible to secure even fairly equipped candidates for the positions we have to offer, and only in rare instances can we retain even these. Really successful teaching in a rural school, teaching which gives the pupil a training equal as a whole to that given in a good city school, requires snore than average ability in the teacher. Our children lack the opportunity of obtaining that valuable out-of-school education which comes by contact with a highly organized social and commercial life ; all the more, there- fore, do they need a highly egicient school,and home training. The mental ability and moral fibre of the country child is certainly not inferior to that of his city brother. With really equal school and home training he would have an equal opportunity of becoming all he should become as a good citizen. The question goes back again to the funda- mental requisite, the community determined to secure, at any reasonable cost, good teachers, and such teachers secured, giving them its hearty support. PROGRESS OF THE SCHOOLS. GENERAL rROGRESS. As compared with last year some advance may be noted in a few lines of work. In the important subjects in which the results were mentioned as unsatisfactory last year but 140 little radical improvement has taken place or is likely to take place until the teachers themselves receive better train- ing, and an aroused public sentiment demands better work. PENMANSHIP. Penmanship in the schools has improved in legibility and neatness, but speed has notyet been obtained. Pressure of many subjects tends to prevent the constant daily practice in every grade to and through the high school,which is the necessary condition of securing practical penmanship. ARITHMETIC. Most of our teachers are giving the new course in arith- metic a faithful trial, but results thus far differ widely in different schools. HISTORY. With considerable modification the history work of the elementary schools is being conducted along the lines re commended by the American Historical .Association. In this subject, as in the related one of civil government, the inadequate training, limited experience and sometimes con- tracted sympathies of some of the instructors render much of the work far from ideal. GEOGRAPHY. Rich as the subject of geography seems to be in material that should interest, inform and inspire, it is the testimony of a majority of teachers that the results obtained, as com- pared with the efforts put forth, are nearly always disap- pointing. It is probable that with the gradual development of improved courses of study in this subject better results will be secured. 141 READING. Perhaps in no other subject do the schools of the present compare more favorably with those of the past than in read- ing. In every grade of the elementary schools one finds far more reading and far better reading, with better material than ever before. The children, .even the seemingly dull and vicious ones, are found to respond to the appeal of the best literature wisely chosen and the beginning of a real love of good reading appears. Were such a love always further developed in the high schools much would be ac- complished toward the building up of well-disposed citizens. Oral reading in the higher grammar,and the high school ' grades leaves much to be desired, time limitations hindering the securing of better results. Yet it is possible to overrate the value of oral as compared with silent reading. The pre- tentious "Rhetoricals" of the old district school are still de= fended by some. Who cannot recall the pride of the parents of the freq&ntly unwilling and perspiring victim as he suc- cessfully thundered forth his lines, and the approving smile of the teacher as he listened to the applause? No one seem- ed to inquire whether the speaker had any comprehension of the ideas which his words were supposed to express or whether he had formed the habit of reading with the aim of apprehending thoughts rather than recognizing and calling words. To make reading for thougbt the natural aim, to develop the love of good reading, to establish the habit of reading—these are the aims sought- by the wise teacher. "We teach a child to read," says Charles W. Eliot, "not primarily to enable him to decipher a way bill or a receipt, but to kindle his imagination, enlarge his vision and open for him the avenues of knowledge.' ENGLISH. The English work in the elementary schools shows steady 142 though slow improvement, but high school teachers still complain of the alleged lack of knowledge of the fundamen- tals of grammar shown by the entering classes. Revised courses of study in English and geography have been under preparation for some time; their completion will await the outlines for rural schools now being formulated by the State Board, in co-operation with teachers and superin- tendents. PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE. Some twenty or more different books on the subject of physiology and hygiene were examined with some care. From among the best of these, submitted to medical experts for examination, a series was selected and placed in the schools in the hope of more effective teaching of this im- portant subject in the future. There is no other subject, how- ever, except moral training, in which the active co-operation of the home is so absolutely essential for the best results. Acting under medical advice, the use of the common drinking-cup was prohibited in our schools some months be- fore such a law was enacted by the state. The feather duster and the common towel have also been done away with and teachers are required to record four times daily the temperature of their respective rooms. The policy of the town in placing, as rapidly as possible, modern sanitary Sys- tems in its school buildings, deserves commendation. NATURE STUDY. The work in nature study has been done, mostly in "morning exercises." In spite of the well meant attempts, it has been on the whole of a fragmentary and unsatisfactory character, and is likely to remain so until teachers them- selves receive a more rational training. It is related that a class of some thirty teachers in a summer school, being 143 asked to make certain of the number of legs possessed by the common house-fly, immediately began to look up ency- clopedias, dictionaries and "nature books" for, the answer. Not one of thegn looked for afly, though flies were all about them, "even on them," as the instructor afterwards re- marked. The question itself may have had little signifi- cance, the method of obtaining the answer had much. It was significant of an entire misconception of the true method of the study of nature, a misconception born of wrong scnool training. It is due to- such wrong training .that the most popular school book on nature study is the one filled with beautiful half-tones of,plants, animals and phenomena which could easily be seen in themselves, and not the book which by wise questioning leads to a direct observation of nature itself. The lessons learned, even from very simple .nature study rightly conducted, tend directly to the development of intellectual honesty and to the furtherance of individual and social well being. In this, and in the closely correlated subject of hygiene, only constant effort will bring about bet- ter results. HAND TRAINING. Former reports have dwelt rather fully upon the need of hand work accompanying brain work, for the best results in the latter, and for the good of the child as a whole. The need still stands and we have done but little, except in draw- ing, to supply it. Of such hand training, Supt. H. D. Hervey says, "The manual training of the future, however, will not be a subject strongly differentiated from what is now known as `regular work.' It will be, on the contrary, a vital and vitalizing part of every kind of school activity. It will be made the handmaiden of every subject and so dovetailed and interrelated that the old distinction between headwork and handwork will utterly disappear. There can be no in- telligent handwork which does not involve real thinking of 144 the most valuable kind, though to the initiated it is all too well known that there may be, and too often is, a vast deal of lesson reciting in so called regular work when there is no real thinking whatever. Before manual work of the true type can be given its rightful place in the schools, the general public must cease its idolatrous worship of the book. It must realize more keenly than it does at present that the race has advanced in- tellectually far more by doing things and thinking things out at first hand than by reading from the printed page of the deeds and thoughts of others. It must cease to exalt the glib reciter of empty words above the thoughtful, though perhaps less fluent, doer. It must learn that it is not so much the amount of time that a boy spends on a subject that counts as it is the motive which actuates him in his study, as it is the closeness of the connection between the subject and the present interest, the real life of the pupil." Certain schools in New York so arrange their pro-rain that the boys give three hours in the morning to straight school work and the afternoon to hand work, either in reg- ular shops or in manual training schools. Can it be without significance, that in every such school, it has been found at the end of the year that the boys in the half-time school have done intellectual work equal, in quantity and quality, to that of the boys in the all-day schools, and in addition have received invaluable will and muscle-training? Our boys in the town of Barnstable need some such training, in a simple way, but to give it in even such a way means effort, time, some expense, some mistakes, and, above all, public appreciation of the need and desire to supply it. TRAINING SCHOOL. The Training School, carrying on the unique lines of effort for which it has become noted, has been co-operating cordi- 145 ally and effectively in the effort to improve the teaching in physiology and hygiene in our schools. This matter is dealt with in an interesting manner in the report of Mr. W. A. Baldwin on the school, which may be found elsewhere. THE HIGH SCHOOLS. Some changes have been made in the science work of the high schools the past year. The work in chemistry and physics has been conducted with greater emphasis upon the industrial and economic aspects of these subjects. Mr.Boody has taken his freshman class once a week in practical work in elementary physics, the pupils showing a sustained in- terest throughout. Proposed changes looking toward the modification of the first year's course have been approved by the School Board. These call for the extension of the English grammar work of the ninth grade and its application to social and business correspondence; the substitution of English history in place of ancient history for those not taking Latin ; elimination of the more tedhnical portions of rhetoric and the substitution therefor of readings from modern authors, and substituting in one of the three terms formerly given to elementary alge- bra, business arithmetic. Modifications of the work for the three other years are being considered. Among- the more important of these are the substitution of four years' work in either French or German in place of two years' work in each. The suggestion of a course, as proposed by Principal Boody, in which no foreign language should be included, may seem radical, but such courses have been for years in successful operation,and it is not apparent that the graduates from such courses fill their places in the world, both as indi- viduals and as citizens,,any less successfully than the grad- uates from the conventional courses. 146 The high standard of the commercial course is being fully maintained under its new instructor and its classes are the largest yet enrolled. The "snap-seekers" fight shy of this course and the intention is to make the requirements still more rigid. The problem of the course of study of the Elizabeth Low- ell-school, if considered from the point of view of the real needs'of most of its pupils, is a vexing one. It is impossible for two teachers to do much more than fill the legal require- ments as to the subjects which must be taught to enable it to be accepted as a high school. A business course, or any essential modification of the present course along practical lines, is impossible without the employment of an additional teacher. The situation is unique and is the direct result of our unfortunate extent of territory. No other town in the State, of approximately our population, attempts to run two fully-equipped high schools. The successful solution of the task is bound to be a difficult and expensive one. COATING CHANGES. Radical changes in the curricula of high schools are bound to come, however strongly they may be opposed by natural- ly conservative schoolmen. The school is a social institu- tion, founded by society for its own protection and better development, and the course of study should be made up from life's real problems and needs, to the end that those problems and needs shall be met in the best possible way. A course providing a chiefly ornamental culture for a few, at the expense of an efficient training for the many, has no right to the first place in a public high school. Fears are expressed that the changes imminent in our high school courses will limit the cultural opportunities of the school. But true culture is many-sided and comes' through many avenues, and one of the most valuable of these lies in learn- 147 ing to do willingly and well,instead of unwillingly and poor- ly, the ordinary duties of every-clay life, and the curriculum, not of the high school only, but of the elementary schools as well, should be such as to stimulate such willingness and promote such ability. Some conservative scboolmen express the fear that the s6- called vocational movement will result in lessening the cul- tural opportunities of the school and narrowing the outlook of its graduates. This may prove true if all that relates to vocational training is postponed to the latter part of the school course ,and then sharply separated from all other school wort:. If, however, we include in cultural opportu- nities, not merely those which may result in literary attain- ments, but those tending to fit one to perform efficiently and gladly the homely but necessary duties of every-day citizen- ship, and if we adapt a portion of the curriculum during the entire school course to ultimate vocational ends, then the r vocational movement will result in giving us an even better- balanced citizen than has the more academic training of the past. The high school at Hyannis has a curriculum already in part vocational, and has unusual opportunities, for a rural school, for further development in that direction. That such development should be managed always wiselywould be too much to expect. But to cling to old methods and programs because they are customary, because they are easy and be- cause they are cheap, would be to fail in our plainest duty, that of preparing as completely as possible our young people to live efficient and well-rounded lives, in a society rapidly growing more complex and calling constantly for more and more highly-organized abilities in its members. Ili the welter of conflicting opinions, in the rapid changes certain to take place in our school programs, we may feel sure of being on solid ground if we insist that, no matter 148 what subjects be taught, they be taught thoroughly, that they be so taught as to lead the pupil into habits of contin- uous useful industry, that they be so taught as to develop in the pupil the will and ability to make himself do the thing he ought to do, when he ought to do it, whether he likes to do it or not. IMMEDIATE NEEDS OF THE BARNSTABLE SCHOOLS. Perhaps it may not be out of place to repeat here the more immediate needs of the schools as listed in last year's report, though some advance has been made in several of the matters mentioned: Economy of time by closer attention to the essentials of the fundamental studies of the common schools and the eli- mination of antique processes and useless subjects. More effective teaching-of a2ypliel hygiene. A reasonable amount and kind of simple hand training. History and civil government taught with more direct ref- erence to life. Radical revision of the course of study for the first year of the high school. A larger relative amount of time given to science in the high school. Utilization of the Barnstable high school grounds for or- namental,agricultural and athletic purposes, in line with the most progressive schools. Maintenance of a high standing in the high school by stricter entrance requirements and by requiring the total amount of work in any course to be equal in difficulty and time required to that in the college preparatory course. Continued co-operation with the teachers by the parents in helping the young people toward better and more useful living. 149 PUBLIC SPIRIT. The public spirit of the citizens of the town has been shown in several gratifying ways during the year. In Centerville, citizens contributed gymnastic apparatus and a fine flagpole to the school. From the Whelden family,. carrying out a wish expressed by Martha Lee Whelden be- fore her death, one thousand dollars was placed in the hands of the School Board, to be used for the benefit of the school children of the town of Barnstable. For more than a generation Martha Lee Whelden, first as a teacher and later as a member of the School Committee, gave with loyal devotion her strength and talents to furthering the education of the children of Barnstable, and her memory is held in reverence to-day by hundreds of her former pupils. Contributions have been received from many of the older residents of the town toward a tablet soon to be placed in the Barnstable High School, in memory of Theodore F.Bas- set, a noted and able teacher of a generation ago. It would be but fitting and just to express here also the appreciation of the School Board for the .generous response of the citizens of the town to the request for larger appro- priations which the increasing development of the schools has rendered necessary. REPORTS OF SUPERVISORS AND PRINCIPALS. Attention is called to the interesting and instructive re- ports of the several principals and supervisors. The super- intendent feels that he can say with truth, both of the above instructors and of the regular teachers, that, however much their success has varied, their work at least has been in ev- ery case thoroughly faithful. With faithful teachers, re- B--u 15b teiving from parents the co-operation that has been so freely given them the past year, much can be accomplished, even in the complex and difficult task of public school education. Respectfully submitted, G. H. GALGER. 151 REPORT OF THE MEDICAL INSPECTOR To the HONORABLE SCHOOL BOARD of Barnstable : Gentlemen:-1 have the honor to submit herewith my re- port as School Physician for the Town of Barnstable. The inspection of the schools during the past year has followed quite generally that of previous years, but along more ample lines, made possible by the more adequate appro- priation of last March. Each of the schools of the Town is , now being carefully inspected at least once during each school term, more careful attention being given to the pres- ence of diseased conditions among the pupils. This atten- tion is not necessarily confined to contagious diseases alone, but also to those having only an individual influence on the child affected, as tending to impair his or her ability to study. For example, six children in one school-room, and three in anoth,r, were found to have adenoid growths to such an ex- tent as to interfere with their proper breathing. All such cases have been referred to the parents or the family physi- cian for treatment,which has materially improved the ability of these children to do their school work satisfactorily. Par- rents are also notified of the presence of badly-decayed teeth, and of any other condition or influence which in the opinion of the School Physician or the experience of the teachers, is detrimental to the best interests of the child. The use of the common towel and the common drinking- cup, the latter being forbidden by law since last year, have been systematically discouraged, in accordance with the in- structions given teachers by your Superintendent of Schools. Frequent examination, of the drinking-water has also been of advantage in restricting the use of foul or brackish water, which was unfit for drinking. The work of the janitors and barge-drivers is also more closely inspected, and recommendations for the improvement of this service made as occasion requires. _. . 152 Ootuit and Santuit have been visited by a very mild attack of scarlet fever during the Christmas vacation, snaking it advisable to close these schools for the past two weeks. Aside from this, no dangerous contagion has appeared in the schools of the Town. It has been the privilege of the School Physician'to visit several schools in other parts of the State, in company with their School Physicians. The cities and factory towns, hav- ing a large floating population, largely foreign-born and bred, present problems unknown to us, calling for more frequent inspection, and the assistance of District nurses to supplement the physicians' work, and to demonstrate to the parents many hygienic,needs which would otherwise be neglected. One of the principal advantages of these out-of-town in- spections is in the opportunity given for making compari- sons. These comparisons clearly indicate that our town is well in the van of progress, in some ways superior to any of the cities and many of the other towns, in the care it takes of our growing children, wisely endeavoring to preserve their mental and moral integrity, and at the same time insure their physical well-being, so far as any non-parental influence can. I would respectfully urge that the town take no backward steps in furthering the work of its educators, whether their efforts be directed toward the intellectual, the moral, or the physical aspects of education. Respectfully submitted, J. HAYDN HIGGINS, M.D. School Physician. Marstons Mills, Mass., Jan. 20, 1911. _ 153 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BARN- STABLE HIGH SCHOOL G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools, Dear Sir: In my last report I recommended the formation of an athletic association. It gives me pleasure to report that such an association has, been formed. This association comprises all the members of the school. The affairs of this association are to be administered by an Executive Board composed of the Superintendent of Schools, the Local Member of the School Board, the Principal, and four members of the School, one from each class. By dime subscriptions a fund has been established that will aid us in our efforts to put athletics on a sound basis. The formation of the new baseball league, and the fact that there is now something worth working for should arouse a more healthful interest in athletics. PHYSICS Beginning with September, I have had the first-year class one period a week in Elementary Physics. I had two motives in doing this; the first that I might come into a more per- sonal relation to the members of the entering class; the second that I might arouse in them the eagerness-to-know- more. which comes to so many with the study of a science. The Metric System, Temperature, Magnetism, and Electri- ,city, have been studied, and by the demand that has been made upon me for Physics textbooks, I feel assured that the experiment has been a success. In our work in the laboratory, we find great difficulty in 154 keeping things in good order owing to the lack of suitable cabinets in which to place the apparatus. At present there is but one cabinet, an old book-closet, but between that and the door opening into the Drawing room there is space which could be utilized for other cabinets or shelves. GRADUATES In September, one of our graduates entered the Massachu- setts Agricultural College, one, St. Anselm's College, one, Pratt Institute, one, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, one, Baltimore School of Law, and four, the Hyannis State Nor- mal School. In June, one received a degree from Boston University, and two from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Two received diplomas from Pratt Institute, and three from the Hyannis State Normal School. The illustrations in this year's Index, the junior publica- tion of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, are the work of Edward H. Bodfish of.the Class of.1908. PROMOTIONS For a number of years it has been the custom to allow pupils whose work in one or two subjects has failed to reach the standard required for promotion to pass on with their class "conditioned," as we say, in these subjects. Thus pupils pass on handicapped by their lack of prepara- tion; they are obliged to make up the work of the previous year in addition to attending to the regular work. The end of the year finds them "conditioned" in one or two other subjects and they take up the next year's work still handi- capped. In the senior year they face a difficult problem, that of making up all back work and of bringing all of the senior work to a successful completion. 155 Their parents fail to see why their boys and girls, after reaching this last year of school life, should find it so hard a task to earn their diplomas. The pupils, having been allowed to pass on from year to year, with conditions hanging over them, think that some- thing will be done for them whereby the desired diplomas may be obtained. They are loath to understand that the time has come for a balancing of accounts. I believe that this custom is fundamentally a wrong one, that by it pupils gain a false conception of the required standard, that they acquire poor habits of thought, that it is not a good preparation for the tasks of life, and that the pupils themselves realize this. Is it not, then, time that this custom be done away with, a custom which I have no authority to change? Will you not grant me this authority? May we not refuse to promote to a higher grade those who are really not prepared to go on? Why should we allow the boy who has not completed the work of the first year to un- dertake the work of the second? I have found by experience that the pupil who has been obliged to repeat the studies of any year, takes up his work in the future with a new spirit and with an altogether differ- ent conception of what such work means. He finds the teacher a helper instead of a taskmaster, and comes to learn that there is pleasure in work well done. In the foregoing, I have considered only those pupils who through lack of study have not done good work. The others, those who because of illness or mental in- capacity have fallen behind may be considered as special cases and dealt with as such by superintendent and princi- pal.

GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: The conditions that I have met in the Barnstable High School thus far are favorable to the ultimate development of the ideal Commercial Course, which, of course, is what we desire. Commercial. education concerns in a vital way a greater number of persons than all other educational matters taken together. Most men live ordinary lives and earn their living in ordinary industries; their training, then, should be first and chiefly that which will help them to know the things of every day and to do well the common work before them. The ideal Commercial Course, then, must be one that gives as broad a commercial education as may be, and a thorough, practical commercial training. A course that will be both cultural and vocational; embracing in its cultural aspect four ,years' work in English and two of a foreign language, and the Science of Commerce as dealing with commercial products,the things men need and make and use, the ways they carry them about the world, the methods by which they sell them, and the fight for foreign and domestic markets for our manufactured goods, taught under the various heads of Commercial Geography, History of Commerce, Economics, Commercial Law, and Transportation; the aim of the voca- tional. side to give a, good working knowledge of bookkeep- ing, stenography and typewriting, so that at the completion of his course, whether it be graduation from B. H. S. or a higher institution of commercial education, the student may take his place among the world's workers with a definite knowledge of what he wants to do and how to do it. While the extension of our present course to embrace all the foregoing studies must be a'matter of an addition to the teaching force, the matter of giving good, practical training with the facilities we have is a matter of here and now. And 160 in this connection I would mention two immediate needs; the need of more time for stenography and typewriting, and the need of more room for the bookkeeping class, which is so large that in several instances two pupils must share a desk, and good mechanical work in bookkeeping is impossible with- out plenty of elbow room. Bosh of these needs could be met, for a time at least, by dividing the commercial room by a partition,largely of glass, and so constructed that the two parts of the room could be thrown together upon occasion. This would provide for practice periods for the typewriting pupils in addition to in- struction periods, and at such practice periods a class could be in progress in the other part of,the room, the glass parti- tion allowing the teacher an oversight of both parts of the room. The removal of the large typewriter desks into the smaller compass of one division would give room for the in- stallation of a sufficient number of ordinary desks or other equipment for the bookkeeping class. • In my work in the school the students have, for the most part, co-operated heartily with me to the best of their ability; and particularly in the upper classes I have met with a will- ing response to all requirements and an earnest desire to get the best results possible from the work. Such conditions must make for good quality of work. Respectfully submitted, FLORENCE T. DAVIS. t �61 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE ELIZABETH LOWELI, HIGH SCHOOI, To the Superintendent: When school commenced last September, twenty-eight pupils were upon our rolls. Later the number was increased to thirty-five; now there are thirty-three regular members of the High School. We have two courses of study: namely, "The Classical" and "Scientific." Th- Classical course requires the study of Latin for four years and prepares in a more general way for college than does the Scientific course. The Scientific course is supposed to be the more practical, including Physics, Chemistry, and Modern Languages. In a small school with a small teaching force it is rather a difficult problem to know just what is best for the pupils, but our curriculum is suffi- ciently varied and comprehensive to be of benefit. If the High School pupil does not like all the studies he takes, but gets interested in one, so that he wishes to know more about that study, the High School is doing all that we can hope. Although the drawing and music teachers have separate reports of their work, we wish to say a few words in appre- ciation of their efforts. Several of the pupils are doing ex- cellent work, and are interested in drawing, especially mechanical drawing, which is surely a very practical study. As to Music, we have a class in Harmony, which very few city schools have, not to mention country schools. We doubt whether the advantage of such a class is fully appre- ciated by the pupils, but it surely is a very practical, helpful., and useful study. The recent term examination awoke some of the pupils to a realization of the fact that they needed to do some school work. In order to do good school work it is quite necessary for 162 the pupils to be present at school, not half the time, but all the time when not really ill. So far the school has seemed to be a "fair-weather" school,—requiring only a slight storm to keep some pupils away. We can not teach pupils when they are not at school. We believe in progressing and it will. be our aim to keep to a definitely high standard. We have had a number of visits from friends and parents of the pupils. We welcome those visits and request the parents especially to come to see the work that we are doing. While the pupils have some time to study in the school room, yet the pupil of average intelligence needs to study at home. After the pupil has left the school building in the afternoon sometimes he or she forgets about the school work for the morrow. We wish to kindly suggest to the parents that they may help their children by urging and influencing them to study at home. Home study is necessary. If faithful systematic study is pursued every day by the pupils, good re- sults are sure to follow. Much of the work accomplished during the year is due to the faithful interest of our assistant. We also wish to say that our building has been well cared for during the past school year. Respectfully submitted, LeROY. M. HANDY.

GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools : I accept the opportunity which your invitation offers to discuss some phases of the work of the Training School. This work is being continued along lines similar to those which it has been following for several years. We believe that the movement is, on the whole, a forward one. It is interesting to note that Dr. Snedden, the new Com- missioner of Education, is advocating for the schools of the State work along similar lines. We live in an age of read- justment. In all branches of human activity modifications are continually being made and it would be strange indeed if education did not have a share in such modifications. Readjustments and modifications do not, however, always mean improvement. Some mistakes are sure to be made. We need, therefore, to proceed slowly and thoughtfully, ready always to accept as well as to give suggestions. In the spirit of the above the present report is presented. I have for years believed that the best work of the school can only be done as it supplements and co-operates with the home. One of the underlying principles of the new education is the unity of the child's life. The child is not to live one life in school, another at home and a different one still on the street among his fellows. If a child is required to use good English in the school but is allowed to be careless of his speech at.home and if, among his companions on the street, he learns and practices the street dialect, then it is easy to see that so far as English is concerned his life is divided into three parts, each at war against the others. This is a common and unfortunate con- dition of many of the children in the public schools. Nor is it hard to prophesy what will be the result. Unless some high purpose emanating from home or school gets possession of the child to make him realize the importance of the use of 167 good English he will eventually go the easier and more con- genial way of the street. Is it not clear that in order to bring about the unity of life which modern education suggests, the school and home must work together? This need of co-operation between'the school and the home is well illustrated in connection with a subject which has recently come into our school and which is receiving increasing attention from all thoughtful people. This subject is a complex one and has to do with the physical well being of the child. It includes physical training and hygiene and has to do with all of the physical activities of the child in school, at home, and on the street, or in the fields. A brief discussion of this subject may help to show how the Training School is trying to do its part in develop- ing the child on the physical side. It may also serve as an illustration of our method of work and of our desire to be suggestive, helpful and co-operative in all that has to do with the well being of the children of the Training School. Ventilation. The Town has furnished us with a modern building with a gravity system of ventilation which works fairly well if properly adjusted and watched. When, how- ever, each room contains from thirty to forty human beings, it is impossible, with any system of ventilation, to keep the air pure, and constant care is needed on the part of teachers and janitor. Since the air cannot be kept as pure as is de- sirable, teachers are advised, as often as is possible, to throw open the windows and give brief physical exercises. or to take the children out for exercise in the open air. Children are also encouraged to be out-of-doors as much as possible outside of school hours and to sleep with open windows at- home. Recesses. At about the middle of both forenoon and after- noon the children are allowed to have a recess for free play on the school grounds. The children on the lower floor have their recess just before those of the upper floor so that not so many children will be on the playground together, and 168 so that the older children will not interfere with those of the primary grades. Teachers are always about the school grounds to encourage timid children and -sluggish children to join in the plays and to prevent too much boisterousness on the part of rough children. In the lower grades the children are given frequent rest periods of from one to three minutes when they run about the room, sing songs or do something which is physically and mentally relaxing, and which therefore enables them to go on more vigorously with their school work. Industrial Work. It may be well here to mention the plan of breaking up the regular school routine, especially in -spring and autumn, by various forms of industrial work such as school garden work, cooking and bed-making. Those all serve as forms of relaxation much more valuable than is gen- erally supposed. Their value in making real the training along intellectual and moral lines has been often presented. Modern education is teaching us that unity in development means the tying together of the mental, the moral and the physical activities of the child. Gymnastics. The gymnastics form but a small part ofAhe physical training work and serve mainly as corrective exer- cises. A modified Swedish system is the one in use, and about ten minutes a day is devoted to the exercises. It helps to give the children correct ideas as to sitting and standing posi- tions, and so to form a basis for the correction of some bad habits which have already been formed. The latest form of gymnastics which we have introduced consists of what is called rhythm work. Rhythmic Exercises. The children of the primary grades are taken to the gymnasium twice a week for so-called rhythmic exercises. The purpose of these exercises is.to help the children to get control of their bodies so that they may move about easily, gracefully and with some confidence and to quicken both their intelligence and their emotions, thus helping toward that harmony of mind and body which seems so desirable. 169 Medical Inspection. The sight and hearing of the children are tested every year. Investigations in many places have shown that children often make slow progress at school, not because they lack in mental ability, but simply because they are not able to see or hear distinctly. This is well illustrated by a story told by Supt. Whitcomb of Lowell. "A cabinet- maker, a very superior workman, told me that as a boy he was a failure at school and that when he tried to learn the carpenter's trade at the age of sixteen he failed until he ac- cidentally discovered, and then supplied, his need of glasses for near-sighted eyes, after which his success was immediate. `Why, I had never seen a line,' he said, `only a blur, and how could I cut to that?' Had his defect been discovered a .few years earlier it would have saved him some years of humiliat- ing failure." It is to prevent such waste of time and energy as this that the sight and hearing tests are made, and parents whose children need help along these lines are notified. Thoughtful parents are glad to have their attention called to such deficiencies. It then rests with them to consult a special- ist or to make such arrangements as seem to them wise. A Course in Hygiene. The subject of hygiene is presented in a systematic course which is more or less informal and incidental in the lower grades, gradually becoming more formal as it advances to the upper grades. Much is made of the formation of habits of personal hygiene such as clean faces and hands, clean teeth, clean clothing and clean air. Here it is certain that the school can do little without the sympathetic co-operation of the home. I am sure that as parents and teachers consider together more and more the needs of the children, they will find them- selves in closer sympathy regarding what is being done and what ought to be done, and great good will result for the children. Very respectfully, i W. A. BALDWIN. 170 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING To MR. GEOR,GE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools The work in drawing of the year 1910 has followed the general plan of the course outlined by the State Director of Manual Arts, with such modifications as local .conditions rendered necessary. Teachers and supervisors of drawing have for years sought to so correlate drawing with other essential studies that it shall become a natural means of expression for the average child. Theoretically this power of graphic expression will enable a pupil to emphasize a story by a picture, explain a scientific fact by a diagram, or prepare a workman to show by a free- hand sketch, the facts or appearance of an object, or give the details of its construction by means of mechanical draw- ings. For a generation trained teachers, constantly striving for better methods, have taught with these ends in view, yet the results fall far short of these ideals. "Of course I had draw- ing in school but I never could draw, I always wished that I could." Some such formula expresses the average young person's estimate of what drawing has done or failed to do for him. The results of examinations of candidates for ad- mission to the State Normal Schools, the lack of graphic power shown by young men who enter our technical schools challenge us to give them better preparation. In spite of these facts another phase of the situation must be considered. Power to draw is not the only result to be promoted by art education in the public schools. Indeed it seems sometimes to be regarded chiefly as a by-product. We seek to develop an all round personality in each child, a per- sonality that sees, enjoys and desires things that are fine and beautiful in nature and art, that recognizes the true and 171 scorns shams and pretense. This we aibn to draw out and stimulate first, last and all the time as we train the eye to see and the hand to express the beauties of form and color that all children love. We cannot take our children to the Museum of Fine Arts to become acquainted with masterly interpretations of strength and beauty nor send them to look for fine examples of color and design in shop windows, but we have the sea and the sky, the marshes and stretches of Cape oaks, gorgeous in i_tutumn, wonderful in spring with a charm all their own, moist snows that make fairy dells of swamps and thickets, tree trunks strong against the wintry skies, beauties every- where about us that sink into the responsive souls of chil- dren and enrich their lives with priceless memories. We can make our simple school rooms as attractive as possible by orderly arrangement of simple furnishings and decorations, and by thoughtful treatment of the flowers that the children bring with such delight. We can keep in mind two basic principles; first, harmonious combinations of color are obtained whenever beautiful colors are so balanced that they give satisfaction to the eye; second, beauty is depend- ent upon space relations. The latter fact should find expres- sion in every finished exercise .in any study where pen or pencil is used. Three reasons for teaching drawing have recently been tersely put by a recognized authority: First, It tends to develop power to see. Second., It develops the power of expression. Third, It develops the power of appreciation. To these I would add a fourth.. It is the bed rock on which all industrial education that depends on the cultivated eye and skilled hand must rest. Every community in this Com- monwealth has a keen interest in the development of indus- trial education and is watching the experiments of the men who are directing this movement. Some forms of industrial training will sQgu be found, adapted.to the needs of the rural 172 schools. Whatever they may be they should not'be allowed to take the place of drawing or curtail its already limited time. Drawing must not lose ground in the coming readjust- ments. Our own problems are unchanged. The most difficult fac- tors in the grades are the unavoidable necessity of teaching from three to four grades in one room, in ninety minutes per week, and the inevitable changes in the teaching force. We lost in 1910 faithful and efficient teachers whom we miss. We are fortunate in their successors, but it takes time and experience in our schools to get the grip that carries this work forward and makes a fifth or seventh grade keep pace with the ninth. In December we again endeavored to have each child make some object suitable for a Christmas gift. In the main good work was done with greater ease than heretofore. The High School is the legitimate place for the develop- ment of gifted pupils and in them we find much encourage- ment. Drawing is a required study in the first and second years and the time scheduled for it is one period per week. This gives for actual drawing but little oyer one third the time previously given in the grades, an allowance altogether too short for profitable work. The results are in proportion to the time given, for in High Schools especially, time must be reckoned a most important factor. Creditable work is being done in spite of these drawbacks by all pupils who study with definite ends in view. These students, recognizing the importance of the time element, draw all that they can on the supervisor's days and at other periods during the week. kiss Nutter's pupils in chemistry are required to illustrate all their experiments by pictures or diagrams. These are made on drawing paper cut to fit the note books. They are criti- cized as drawings before they are placed in the note books and their value is taken into account when the term mark is given. 112iss Nutter has studied the effect of this require- 173 nient and she states emphatically, that clearer thinking and a better understanding of the principles involved follow the careful making of these illustrative drawings. The College Entrance Board and some of our colleges and technical schools already recognize the standing of drawing as a preparatory study by giving credit for courses in mechanical and freehand drawing. Since such recognition is given, the day cannot be far distant when drawing must be so effectively taught in our high schools that it will be on a par with other studies and time given to it count towards a diploma. The development of the manual arts concerns every home. All fathers and mothers are vitally interested in what the schools do or attempt for their children along these lines. Conferences with parents as to the needs and bent of their children might be helpful to all concerned in these days of reconstruction. All interested in these matters are cordially invited to visit the schools in their villages when the Super- visor is present. Respectfully submitted, LUELLA FAY MAYNARD. 174 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC To Mix. G. H. Gnr.GER, Superintendent of Schools: Music is being taught this season in the schools of the Town of Barnstable much the same as it has been taught for several years past. The "Weaver Method," which.places fundamental principles in a simplified manner before the child mind, is the method used. The schools are well sup- plied with the New Educational Music Course Readers; the two combined furnished a course in music which is practical and thorough. , In planning the course of study in music for the schools, the demands made upon the subject have been considered, and the conditions upon which the foundations are laid, have been given much thought. It has been necessary therefore in teaching the "Weaver Method," to constantly take into consideration the number of grades in each room, and adapt as well as possible the method to the existing conditions. The first three grades are taught rote songs which instruct and. entertain the child, train the ear, and afford an oppor- tunity to gain much skill in recognizing various intervals. A few fundamental. principles are taught to pupils of these grades; one of special mention presented to the third grade is a thorough knowledge of the key signatures. The inter- mediate and grammar grades have had these and many other fundamental principles, so they are competent to read at sight exercises of reasonable difficulty,with chromatic altera- tions;to keep good time, and render two and three part songs with good intelligence. The general aim has been to teach the language of music, its "sounds and symbols" for singing and reading, to de- velop the emotional nature and the aesthetic sense, as well as an appreciation of good music. In developing the emotional nature, music exerts its cultivating and refining influence on 175 life and character and promotes the ethical aims of educa- tion. The development of the voice has been given special atten- tion this season and will receive all possible training to the end of the school year. This will give pupils an excellent opportunity to use their voices to the very best advantage. So little time is given to music in the High Schools, it is difficult to accomplish any large amount of good work. Our public concerts will, however, afford the individual an op- portunity to display his or her talent, and the result of our general efforts will be shown in the rendering of choruses by the entire class. Instruction in "Harmony" has been given to those pupils of both High Schools, who are especially in- terested in this subject. Members of these classes are taught to write original melodies and to harmonize music for four voices. In closing, I deem it my duty, as well as pleasure, to com- mend most heartily the co-operation I have received from the regular teachers throughout the town. They have most cheerfully responded to my demand .for a systematic pres- entation of principles, and have not spared themselves in carrying out the ideals of the method. Little could be accom- plished without their co-operation, and this I have not found wanting in so much as a single case. I take this opportunity of publicly thanking the teachers, individually and col- lectively, for the personal assistance they have given me by their untiring work and encouraging words.

See. 3. In no case, except the illness of the person rightfully in charge of the barge, shall the driving during any portion of the route be delegated to any of the occupants of the barge. Sec. 4. Drivers shall always be respectful and courteous in 194 their treatment of the scholars and shall insist upon good order and the right of all scholars to be fairly treated by their associates. They shall report at once to the Local Committee or Superinten- dent of Schools such cases of misbehavior as they find themselves unable to deal with. Sec. 5.

(Adopted by the School Committee August 29, 1903, and Decem- ber 19, 1909.) REPORT OF MOTH SUPERINTENDENT The report of the Gypsy and Brown Tail Moth Superin- tendent is respectfully submitted: The increase in the Brown Tail Moth this year is very serious, from Yarmouth to Sandwich, on the north side of the town. The work is only about one quarter done at pres- ent, on account of the bad weather, and sixty bushels have been taken off so far. In all, the number will probably reach. three hundred bushels. The cause for this increase is due to the fact that around Boston they do not pay much attention to the Brown Tail, but devote all the time and money to fight- ing the Gypsy, as they consider them by far the more deadly to the trees. The result is that if the wind is in the right quarter at the time of the flight of moths, they come down, and settle on us; this explains why the north side of the town gets the bulk of the moths, as they fly across the Bay and settle as soon as they strike land. Now if this is to continue every year the question arises, how far shall we go toward cleaning them off? Shall we clean the fruit and shade trees and let the rest remain, or shall we clean everything as we have in the past? The Gypsy conditions in town are much improved, with the exception of a large colony found last summer. Of the other colonies, there are only six; these are all in good shape, but the large colony which is located at Popponessett, the south-western boundary of the town, is a bad one. This colony covers from fifty to seventy-five acres of mixed tim- ber, oak and pine. The egg clusters were so thick there, that we have used fifty-five gallons of creosote in treating them. The wood is being cut off, and the refuse will be burned in the spring, this will clean up the part where the cutting and burning is done, but it may be necessary to spray a part of it, which is small oak. This colony is by far the worst one which has broken out on the Cape so far. HARRY W. BODFISH, Local Supt. REPORT OF TREE WARDEN During the past fear years the Elm leaf beetles have been so prevalent in our section that nearly all the work of the Tree Warden has been fighting them,to save the Elms on the town roads. In 1910 every Elm, with a very few exceptions, was covered with spray and the foliage kept on through the sea- son. In cases of Elms on private property where the trees were not sprayed the foliage was stripped clean by the mid- dle of July; this shows the advisability of covering the trees with spray, because if they are stripped a number of years in succession, it will kill them, the weaker ones dying first. On account of the spraying that had to be done in order to save the Elms, only a part of the necessary trimming was done, the balance had to be carried over to 1911. For the last two years I have been trying to get the large Elms on Main street in Hyannis, west of the Barnstable road, sprayed, but as these trees are just outhide the State High- way limits they have refused to do it up to a short time ago, when I secured a promise that they should be sprayed in 1911 It is to be hoped that the Town will see fit to appropriate money enough to protect the Elms from the beetle the com- ing season.

Marstons Mills, Jan. 29, 1912 To the Board of Ifealth of Barnstable: Gentlemen:— A new law having gone into effect, has caused much more work to be done. Thus far, I have made 268 dairy inspections, and have issued 117 licenses. Of the samples of milk that I have tested, 25 per cent. quality. While the number of samples testing low may seem large, I will say that the most of the milk testing low, I found in two dairies. I tested the milk from ojie of the dairies twice; and in both instances found it to be below the standard. After the second test, according to the law, that man was liable to prosecution; but from the instructions that I had re- ceived from you, I thought that you preferred to have the quality of the milk in town made better by educating and helping the dairymen, rather than by prosecution. I then took the matter up with the dairyman, as he asked for my help. I then tested the milk from several of his cows, and found those giving the poor milk. . He sold one cow to the butcher, and bought two, whose milk I know tests well above the standard. This seems a much better way to get good milk from that dairy, than to prosecute the dairyman. The second case was along similar lines. Aside from these two cases the quality of the milk sold in town has been very satisfactory. In regard to the cow stables in town I will say that they are in a much more sanitary condition than ever before, and are being kept so. Very respectfully, GFORGR T. MFCARTA, Milk Inspector..

'To the Citizens of Barnstable: On petition of fifty voters of the town, the following article appeared in the warrant issued prior to the last annual meeting. "To see if the town will appoint a com- mittee of three, five, seven, or nine as a Special Taxation Committee, to act with the Board of Assessors, and to in- struct or request, said joint committee and said Board to make a full and-•complete valuation of all property in Barnstable to be assessed in 1911. At the said annual meeting the following vote was passed: "That a committee of three be appointed by the moderator to report,at this meeting or at any adjournment thereof, the names of,a committee of nine to be called a `taxation committe,,,' who shall make a full and complete valuation of all property in the town of Barnstable subject to taxation and report such valuation to the assessors." The following gentlemen were appointed by the modera- tor: Charles C. Paine, Esq.; F. H.''Hinckley and Benj. F. Sears. At the adjourned meeting the following names were reported by the committee: Edward F. Maher; Temp, Ch., ' Ulysses A. Hull, Marcus N. Harris, J. M. Leonard, S. Fre mont Crocker, L. Frank Paine, Aaron S. Crosby, John Burs- ley, Charles L. Gifford. The gentlemen named were unani- mously elected, and it was voted that the committee be em- powered to fill any vacancy-in the committee, and be sworn to their duties. At the said annual meeting, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Resolved that it is the sense of this meeting that all property in the town of Barnstable 284 subject to taxation, be assessed at its full and fair market value, and that the committee of nine or Taxation Com- mittee, so called, be empowered to have access to all town records, the use of the town offices, and to advise with and make recommendations to the board of Assessors to bring about such assessment." The Taxation Committee met at the Town Office Marcli 28, 1911, and organized as follows: Chairman, Edward F. Maher, Secretary, Charles L. Gifford. Vacancies caused by resignation of J. Al. Leonard and S. Fremont Crocker, and by the absence in California of Marcus N. Harris, were filled by the appointment of Henry C. Davis, Andrew W. Lawrence and Ira L. Hinckley. The following principles of taxation were adopted by the Committee: "That the amount of tax paid on personal. property, shall not affect the value to be assessed on the real estate to be taxed to the same individual." That our problem is not "What ought a particular citizen to pay?" but solely "What amount of property is there to be assessed and what is its full and fair market value?" That since .the law directs and enforces the assessment of estates of people who are dead at full valuation, and as we must thus use the full size yard-stick in the case of property which may be the sole support of widows and orphans, we cannot in fairness be more lenient in other cases." "That one thing is self evident," "that never in this Commonwealth under any law will it be .allowed that the holders of large amounts of property shall be taxed on a lower basis than the holders of smaller amounts of similar property." "That the principles employed by the Committee be made.public through the medium of the local press." It was voted in the Committee that all parcels of real estate valued at $10,000 or more, be inspected by the full committee, and that the following members serve as special committees in assessing the property in the several precincts: I. Barnstable—Henry C. Davis, John Bursley, Edw. F. Maher, L. Frank Paine. 285 II. West. Barnstable—John Bursley, Andrew W. Lawrence, Aaron S. Crosby. III. Hyannis—Edw. F. Maher, L.

Hull, Charles L. Gifford. VI. Marstons Mills—Andrew W. Lawrence, John Burs- ley, U. A. Hull. VII.' Cotuit—U. A. Hull, Charles L. Gifford, Henry C. Davis, Ira L. Hinckley. A vote extending a cordial invitation to the full board of Assessors to be present at all meetings, of the Committee was passed unanimously. At the request of the committee, State Supervisor of Assessors, C. W. Dow, met the committee and Assessors at the Town Office April 13, 1911, for the purpose of advice and instruction, especially in regard to the method of de- ciding the taxable value of specific parcels of real estate in the town such as certain detached peninsular forms, islands, "show places" so called, and. others not comparable with ad- jacent parcels. Some of the main points of instruction re- ceived from the Supervisor were as follows: "That we should follow the law in all cases." "That we should be familiar enough and should be able to estimate reasonably enough a neighbor's bank account, and to so estimate in case of his failure to make returns." "That the personal property tax of individuals should. be increased each and every year until the party so in- creased is induced to file the return required by law." "That the practice of assessing oyster growers for seed or oysters planted after April 1 of each year is illegal, but that the growers should be taxed for oysters actually on the beds or in their possession on that date, their cash on hand., and bills due their less debts." 286 "That the -income over' $2000 of all persons should be taxed." (The Assessors reported that no direct income tax had up to this time been imposed). "That our seashore property should be treated specifi- cally and not as `classified property.' " "That all possible should be done to influence citizens to make returns." "That the Assessors could not be dictated to even by vote at a town meeting, neither can they be forced to print their valuations." The Supervisor expressed himself as satisfied with the personnel of the Committee and stated that he had already advised the Assessors to follow the recommendations to be made to them by the Committee, consistent with their oath of office. As the valuation books of the previous years could not be taken from the Town Office, many days of laborious work were required to make copies necessary to carry .on the work. Many members gave nearly an entire month to the work of making the valuation, uncomplainingly, some furn- ishing the use of automobiles, entertaining members at dinner, and in' every way doing all possible to have the work well and fully accomplished. . , . It was the policy at all times to interview the owner of property to be taxed, and ask his assistance in assessing the, property in his vicinity. Special mention and thanks are due to the following gentlemen for such assistance: J.._Al. Leonard, W. S. Scudder, Israel Crocker, H.. P. Leonard, , Robert Cross, L. N. Ames, N. H. Bearse, H. A. Dottridge, B.F. Sears;Howard.IIarston, James Otis,Winthrop Crowell, T. F. Phinney, George B. Fisher, Roscoe Hamblin, Horace Ryder, M. N. Harris, Lorenzo Lewis, Wm. T. Beales, Charles Ayling, Andrew Adie, Geoo H. Phelps, and many others. Except in a few cases owners of real estate were very willing to place a value on their property approximating its real and full market value, in conformity to law, but expect= 287 ing the tax rate to be correspondingly low so that the tax to be, paid would not be materially increased. Unfortunately the Committee were not fully aware that owing to the large amount of money appropriated at the- town meeting, and that the supplementary December tax the year before had enabled the assessors to make a tax rate of$13.50 in 1910, it would be necessary to raise by taxa- tion nearly 25 percent. more money than. last year. As- suming that conditions this year were about as last year, we hoped for a tax rate of $10.00 per $1000, or even less. Had the same valuation remained however, as in 1910, the tax rate would have been about $16.50 this year, and the taxpayers would have more easily understood the increase in their tax bills. In some cases the Assessors may have been influenced by the report of this Committee, and many large increases may be justly laid to the Committee, for which we are quite willing to take the responsibility. A careful com- parison of the reports of the Committee as to their valua- tion with the actual assessment finally made by the Assessors, together with the personal statements of mem- bers of the Board of Assessors, discloses the fact that in but few instances have the Board followed the recommenda- tions of the Committee, thereby putting at naught the Com- inittee's adjustment of taxes for which it worked so labori- ously, and thus not securing the net beneficial result to the town hoped for by their labors. We perceive that the Board of Assessors realized the dissatisfaction of the people regarding the low valuation of the large estates, since these were raised in a manner, which entitles the Assessors to the approbation of the Committee and to the voters of the town." As to the raise in valuation of the real estate in general, this of course was found necessary if the tax rate was to be kept in the vicinity of $13.00. A beneficial result is the aroused public sentiment and interest in this most vital matter of taxation and the ex- 288 pectation that a strong demand will be made of the future Assessors for more careful conformity to law, frequent in- spection of property to be taxed and above all to mak,, ;`equality of taxation" the great aim of their endeavor. as neighbors will always watch each other in relation to their taxes, and if owning similar property, demand to be treated alike. Upon learning of a recent sale at a price much greater, than the assessed value, the assessors should not only ad- just this particular parcel but similar adjoining parcels should also be revalued. It is the opinion of this committee that the town of Barnstable is so large, property so diversified and changing in value so continually, especially its shore property, that no three men at the present salary can be expected to do the work at all satisfactorily. We recommend at least six assistant assessors residing in different sections of the,to,,vn, to act with the Board when necessary, advising as to values, and assisting in adjusting the taxes of their neigh borhood. Also, the committee recommends much greater care and effort to locate personal property, and it is with regret that the committee were forced to make final reports, before they had fully exhausted their efforts in this directian. The law.practically says- "You may make a return, or you may run for luck." Most run for luck,,and the citi- zen who feels any moral obligation to disclose his property to the assessors is a rare specimen. It is easily,within the power of the assessors to prevent "tax dodging" by increas- ing the personal tax until returns are filed. It is an,open question whether any member of the committee was justi- fied in approaching the taxpayers with regard to their per- sonal property. The Assessors alone have authority and confidential relationship in these matters, and should use all possible information as to estates probated, salaries, in- come, and bank deposits. 289 The following figures as given to this committee by as assessor, stating the increase in valuation recommended by us in the several villages may be of interest: Barnstable . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .$154,800.00 Hyannis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 285,990.00 Hyannisport . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 378,460.00 Centerville . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 159,990.00 Osterville 677,880.00 Marstons Mills . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 33,250.00 Cotuit . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 512,950.00 In addition to the above, the Committee recommended much personal, and a large income tax. The valuation increase of the village of West Barnstable is not given, but owing to the 25 per cent. necessary increase, probably the taxes of all were somewhat greater than last year. Approximately the valuation of the town was increased by the assessors 28 per cent., and if the recommendations of the committee had been adopted, the increase would have been about 47 per cent. The small taxpayer will in the future reap the benefit of this increase, as by far the greater increase has been made in the large estates. Much interest and. some criticism has been aroused over the withdrawal of a prominent resident as a voter, taking his large personal property holdings of about $99;000 to another town. The party owns a beautiful peninsular of land estimated. to be worth from $50,000 to $150,000, on which land exclusive of buildings a valuation of only $14,- 000 was assessed in 1910, and much less in previous years. Much just dissatisfaction had been expressed regarding this valuation and that of other similar parcels. Our com- mittee recommended a value of $75,000 and the Assessors placed a final value of $60,000 this year. This and many similar examples fully justify the agitation resulting in the appointment of this committee, and is full acknowledgment 290 by the assessors of the discrimination heretofore practiced regarding these large estates. The Committee sincerely regret the withdrawal men- tioned and can appreciate the feeling of resentment in so abrupt an increase, but the town has greatly favored the gentleman in previous valuations, and the real estate still remains, which in the estimate of the Committee is not yet fully taxed. The Committee find much property exempt from taxa- tion, and in many cases believe the privilege of exemption from reason of poverty, has been exercised too freely. While it would be interesting to all the taxpayers to have the full recommendations as to each parcel of property printed, no provision for such expense has been made. The following figures taken from one precinct will illustrate conditions as found and adjusted, on certain parcels of land only: Assessed Assessed Recommended in 1910 in 1911 by Committee $5,000 $25,000 $35,575 5,000 16,000 30,000 11,200 18,000 29,000 6,000 14,000 17,000 12,000 19,000 60,000 12,000 28,000 32,000 3,200 7,000 9,000 120 1,550 3,500 1,100 6,000 10,000 800 3,400 5,000 1,300 7,000 11,000 4,000 7,500 10,000 3,000 6,000 9,000 It is to be regretted that our Board of Assessors should have been displeased at the appointment of the Committee, 291 Q resulting in a lack of harmonious action in the whole mat- ter, but we feel that we are in no way to blame for the point of view taken by them. The Committee expresses the hope that permanent good will result from its work. It has given much conscientious effort, and trusts that every citizen will in the future give more earnest attention to the whole matter of taxation and assist the Assessors in all possible ways to bring about more satisfactory assessments.

Calendar subject to change, SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To the School Committee.o,f Barnstable: In accordance with the rules of the School Committee, I have the honor to submit my seventh annual report on the public schools, for the year ending December 31, 1911, the same being the twenty-first in the series of Superintendents' reports. SCHOOL BUILDINGS REPAIRS ACCOMPLISHED Among the most important items under "Repairs" the past year were the finishing of the upper room at the Elizabeth Lowell High School, the replastering and entire renovation of the primary school room in the Cotuit Gram- mar School building, book closets and outside repairs at Marstons Mills, repairs on the stacks and painting the trim- mings of the Barnstable High School, reconereting the cel- lar of the north wing and repairing the stack of the Train- ing School, and additional seatings for the Elizabeth Lowell and Barnstable High Schools. The Elizabeth Lowell School is now the best equipped school physically of its size in the county. A final payment of $100 was made on the heating and ventilating plant installed the year before at Barnstable village. Thus far the plant has worked re- markably well. It should be understood that included in the "Repairs" account is the cost of cleaning the buildings, of all janitors' supplies and of new furniture. This account showed an unexpended balance of $452,54 for the year, 306 REPAIRS NEEDED A survey of the repairs and improvements that should be made on several of our school buildings in the immediate future indicates that substantial sums will be needed for that purpose. The necessity of extensive alterations in the stairways and entrances of the Barnstable Grammar School building, offers a favorable opportunity for erecting an additional room and for installing modern sanitary conveniences, and an extensively signed petition in favor of such action has been received by the School Board. Similar improvements as to sanitary conditions should be made at Centerville and Cot'uit, as previously recommended, the conditions in this matter being particularly objectionable at the latter school. Extensive repairs will also soon be necessary at the Training School. The woodwork and walls have received no treatment since the building was erected fifteen years ago. The plastering is badly cracked and bulging in many places, due in part to the effects of the acetylene-explosion of several years ago, and the entire interior woodwork needs varnishing; this will entail a very considerable expense. It is probable also that within a very few years extensive repairs will be needed on both the sanitary and heating plants. A plan was formulated by the School Board some years ago by which at least one schoolroom a year was to be refurnished with modern adjustable seatings. Up to last year this plan had been so far carried out that the Training School and the Marstons Mills School were the only build- ings in which modern seats had not been installed. I recommend that the latter school be so furnished this year and that a sufficient number of adjustable seats be supplied to the several rooms of the Training School to provide for exceptional cases. The probable erection of a new building at Osterville will render only minor repairs necessary to the Qld build ing, 307 TRANSPORTATION Fewer complaints than usual regarding transportation conditions have been received the past year. The ex- penditures under this head, $4,.658.59, exceeded those of any previous year and the estimated expenditures for the com- ing year will be approximately the same MEDICAL INSPECTION Superintendents of rural school districts attempted Lite past year to formulate more specifically the duties of school medical inspectors and to provide uniform report blanka regarding the performance of the same, but it was found that the great variety of local conditions, and the consider- able differences in the compensations of the physicians, rendered such a plan at present impracticable. Testimony was unanimous -however as to the value of medical in- spection. The report of School Physician J. Haydn Higgins, re- cently transmitted to the Board, states that the vaccination law is being better enforced and the eye and ear tests more carefully made; that the more common deviations from the normal are in function of nose and throat, digestive dis- turbances, and nervous troubles of the milder sort, and that Barnstable has the smallest proportion of "defectives" in the state. TEXT-BOOKS AND SUPPLIES The sum appropriated for text-books and supplies, though larger than that of tht preceding year, proved barely adequate. The expenditure under this head was a little less than five per cent. of the total expenditures for the schools. A somewhat larger sum could be advantage- ously used, but any attempt to fulfill ideal requirements as to new books would be prohibitory in cost, 308 / ENROLMENT, ATTENDANCE, ETC. Enrolment and membership for the school year ending June 1911., differed but little from that of the preceding year. The total enrolment was 823. The percentage of daily attendance was reduced somewhat by the prevalence of whooping cough, mumps, and scarlet fever. Exclusion from school of pupils so suffering seems to have little effect in preventing the spread of such diseases, as the law pro- vides for no effective social quarantine. It will require the best efforts of the teachers and pupils in the schools so affected to recover lost ground in lessons. There has been but little truancy during the year and that chiefly in one village, where the trouble seems chronic and is brought about by economic conditions almost im- possible to remedy. REPORTS OF SUPERVISORS AND PRINCIPALS The reports and recommendations of those directly en- gaged in teaching and supervising have a peculiar value, and the attention of parents is called to the reports of the high school principals, of the commercial instructor, of the supervisor of drawing and of the supervisor of music. RESIGNATIONS AND APPOINTMENT'S Resignations the past year, though slightly less in number than usual, still equalled nearly one-third the en- tire teaching force, and involved a task of the utmost difficulty in satisfactorily filling the resultant vacancies. Miss J. Lucile Thayer of Barnstable and Miss Lucy H. Ryder of Cotuit, both of whom showed natural teaching aptitude as part-time assistants at Barnstable and Santuit respectively, declined re-election, the latter becoming a student in the Hyannis Normal School. Miss Genevieve 2/1, Perry of West Barnstable and Miss Charlotte S. Sibley 809 of Hyannis, after filling their respective positions for sev- eral years with marked ability, retired from the profession in June. Miss Georgiana Jones of Barnstable, and Miss Rebecca C. Lapham of Santuit, succeeded Miss Thayer and Miss ' Ryder, and. Miss Bertha S. Weber of Hyannis, succeeded Miss Perry. The vacancy in the Barnstable High School permitted a rearrangement of program and Mr. W. Sherman Atwood of Brockton, was appointed sub-master. Mrs. Florence T. Davis, as Commercial Instructor in the.Barn- stable High School, carried on the work with rare enthusi- asm, thoroughness and efficiency, and her resignation in October was greatly regretted by all. She was succeeded by Miss Luella R. Lyon of Waterbury, Ct. Mr. Chas. L. Gifford, principal at Osterville, resigned in March, the vacancy being filled until the following June by Edward L. Asliley of Boston. Mr. Lewis A. Sheafe of Amesbury, was appointed to the position in September. Harry L. Edgco.mb, who had shown energy and enter- prise as principal of the Cotuit Grammar School, refused re-election in June and the resulting vacancy was filled by the appointment of Mrs. C. L. Hall, whose previous work as principal had been so satisfactory. Mrs. Hall, after doing invaluable work in organizing the school, resigned in October, and was succeeded by Mr. Ernest E. Smith of Westwood. Previous acquaintance with the school as a student proved a considerable aid to Mr. Andrew G. John- son in his administration of the Training School for two ,years as principal. Mr. Wm. G. Currier of Braintree, suc- ceed.ed to the position in September. Mabel K. Baker,having filled, for two terms, with her customary efficiency the vacancy caused by the resignation of Miss Annie H. Chad- wick, was succeeded in September by Miss Mabel R. Coombs of Bardwell's Ferry. Miss S. Gertrude Tighe, who labored most faithfully during the year as Supervisor of Music, declined re-elec- (310 tion in June and was succeeded in September by Aliss Frances L. Stockton of Hampden. All the above appointees, except the part-time assistants, had had both professional training and valuable experience a SCHOOL FINANCES Presenting an unexpended balance at the end of the fiscal year has not recently been a habit of the school de- partment, but such a balance is presented for 1911. This is due, however, to the fact that certain repairs planned were not carried out, a considerable balance under that head therefore remaining. The expenditures under "Text-books and Supplies" were kept within the appro- priation, those under "School Purposes" and under "Transportation" exceeded the appropriations 'by $63.79 and $158.59 respectively. The total unexpended balance was $231.90. SUMMARY OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES, 1911 Total Available Balance or Appropriations Expenditures' Deficiency School Purposes, $24,387 70 $24,451 49 —$63 79 Text-books, supplies, 1,600 00 1,598 26 +1 74 Repairs, 2,500 00 2,047 46 +452 54 Transportation, 4,500 00 4,658 59 —158 59 Totals, $32,987 70 $32,755 80 +$231 .90 ANALYSIS AND ESTIMATES As will be seen by the above, actual expenditures tallied closely with the estimates for "School Purposes" and for "'Text-books `and Supplies;" the expenditures for "Trans- q portation" exceeded the estimates by $158.59, while under "Repairs" a balance of $452.54 remained unexpended. Under "School Purposes the expenditures for fuel ex- 31i seeded the estimates by $37.41; the salaries of three janitors were increased, an increase of fifty dollars was made in the annual salary of the Supervisor of Drawing, and the employment of a sub-master in the Barnstable High School in place of Miss Sibley, resigned, also involved an increase in salary. Two or three teachers entering their third year of service receiv6d the advance of $5 per montli called for by our present schedule. Most of the, above increases began in September, but will of course be operative during the entire school year of 1912. The expenditures for "School Purposes" for 1911 totalled $24,451.49. Should we by good fortune retain most of our present teachers the coming year, with no increase of salaries except as called for by schedule, about $450 will be needed above that ex- pended last year. Summing up, allowing a possible income from sources other than taxation, of $1,100, and expenditure of $2,000 for fuel, $250 for miscellaneous items, $50 for the school census, and $1,934 for janitors' salaries, the total sum needed to be voted for "School Purposes" for 1912 will be $23,700. "Transportation" will call for approximately $4,650; "Text-books and Supplies'.' $1,600; "Repairs," as may be determined by the annual meeting. In another place in this report the .urgent need of a fairer wage return for grade teachers is discussed. An approach at least toward such action could be made at this time by an advance of one dollar per week or thirty-six dol- lars per year, applicable to grade teachers in their third or later year of service to the town, and also to grammar school principals of similar length of service. The total expense of this, meaning so much,for the good of the schools, would be not over $600. This, added to the $23,700 previ- ously mentioned would give a total of $24,300 needed for all "School Purposes," the term comprising all salaries, in- eluding those of janitors; expenditures for fuel, the school census, and miscellaneous items. RANK OF BARNSTABLE IN SCHOOL APPROPRIA- TIONS In the tag for schools, per thousand dollars of valuation, the rank of -Barnstable is one hundred ninety-sixth, 195 other towns in the Commonwealth taxing themselves .more heavily. Barnstable taxes itself $4.88 per thousand; Har- wich $5.21. and stands one hundred sixty-seventh; Orleans $6.11 and stands ninety-seventh; Sandwich $6.29 and stands eighty-second; -Provincetown $7.69 and stands eleventh; West Boylston $10.56 and stands first. Barnstable spends per pupil for text-books and supplies $1.94, Bourne $3.20, Brewster $1.80, Chatham $2.68, Den- nis $1.20, Eastham $2.44, Falmouth $2.75, Harwich $1.87, Mashpee $2.69, Orleans $1.63, Provincetown $1.67, Truro $1.80, Wellfleet $2.21, Yarmouth $3.94. The average for the county is $2.32. PROGRESS OF THE SCHOOLS ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS Progress in most of the subjects of instruction was de- scribed somewhat in detail in last year's report, and the work of the past year calls for little additional comment. In most of the schools progress toward securing thorough- ness in the fundamentals is evident, though slow. The new course in arithmetic is proving somewhat too comprehensive in some of its requirements and a revised course is being prepared. There has been an improvement in spelling in nearly all the schools, .but oral reading in the higher grades is still unsatisfactory, and much remains to be worked out in the question of technical grammar in the grades, especially in its relation to high school demands. The quality of the instruction in the important subjects of geography, history and civics varies widely in the differ- ent schools, profitable and progressive teaching in these subjects being peculiarly dependent upon the individual aptitude, ability and breadth of experience of the teacher Nature study is fragmentary, disconnected and unsatis- factory in many of the schools, due to the inadequate train- ing of the teachers and the time necessity of considering the subject as a minor one, to be tacked on at such times and 'places as other work allows. Systematic hand training, and indispensable accompani- ment of any rational and adequate system of education, is, except in connection with drawing, almost wholly absent from our schools. Some of the teachers who have the requisite ability and initiative have done something in hand training beyond that required by the drawing course. This work is excellent in itself, but as it is preceded and followed by no similar work, much of its value as training is lost. I desire here to call attention to the unusually even, faith ful and thorough work being done at present by our little group of underpaid grammar school principals, and to ex- press the hope that in the interests of the schools of Barn- stable we may be able to retain them. HIGH SCHOOLS The. high schools are making moderate progress along some of the lines suggested in previous reports. Better work is being done in English in both schools, the modified college requirements now rendering it almost possible for a capable teacher to fulfill such, without developing in his pupils a lasting distaste for standard literature. Techni cal algebra is now confined to two terms of the freshman year, work in narrative and business English occupying the other term. Advanced algebra is offered in the senior year to candidates for college. In modern languages four years of either French or German are offered instead of two years of each as formerly. The appointment of a sub-master in the Barnstable High B-21 314 School, has made it possible for chemistry and physics to be taught by the same instructor, to the great .advantage of both. As far as is consistent with rigid disciplinary train- ing in these subjects,. their practical application is being emphasized. No radical changes have been made in the program of the Commercial Course. While more time devoted to type- writing and shorthand would be highly advantageous from. the strictly business standpoint, it still remains the policy of the Board to insist on a good general training accompany- ing the commercial work throughout the entire four years. In the Elizabeth Lowell High School most faithful world has been done along the conventional lines rendered neces sary by the small teaching force and the requirements of.. the law. Such a course, valuable as it is,is not the one best fitted, however, for a large proportion of the pupils and it is to be hoped that such modifications may soon be possible as will permit of a larger amount of work more in touch with the demands of the life of today. Very slowly the curricula of rural high schools are be ing modified in the direction of the demands of modern life.- Meanwhile many pupils utterly unfit for such wort: are being loaded with "dead vocables," with the refine- ments of formal rhetoric and with abstract formulas in science, because, forsooth, such things were in the past sup posed to best fit pupils for entrance into college or into "the higher walks of life." The reaction against such abstractions, taking largely the form of "vocational train- ing," is in the cities growing with astonishing rapidity. ' The movement, like all violent reactions, has its dangers, one of which is that of forgetting that it makes all the difference in the world in the character of a man's life, whether he lives to do business or does business to live. But the dangers of the vocational movement concern our rural high schools but little; they are trailing too far in the rear for that. It could well be the peculiar work and glory of 315 such schools, were it made possible for them to secure and hold adequately trained teachers, to strike the golden mean between the conservatism of the past and the radicalism of today. But such a golden mean cannot be reached by drifting. Any approach toward such an end means continuous effort at the difficult task of judging the relative values in life of the subjects taught in these schools. It means at least the partial elimination of those subjects whose end seems to be chiefly ornament in conversation rather than use in vital activities, and of those which constitute in the main a mere mass of comparatively useless facts. We smile at the Illyrian peasant who balances the bag of grain carried on one side by a bag of the stones on the other, but our schools have been sending out their graduates loaded in exactly similar fashion. "It is not the knowledge which is stored up as intellectual fat which is of value, but that which is turned into intellectual muscle," says Spencer, and it is intellectual and moral muscle above all that our young people need. ' It should be the special work of"the peoples' college" to develop this to the utmost. But in so doing A will need the active cooperation of the home and the church and of the men and women engaged in the every-day work of the world. -Some duties are already fairly certain: There must be it broadening and deepening of the science work, aiming to cultivate a habit of patient observation and dispassionate judgment and to instill a reverence for the laws of nature that will be lived as well as felt. Mathema- tics should be taught as a means of rigid mental training and as having many direct applications to every-day affairs and to the higher arts. The ends sought in the teaching of English literature, of the languages and of history have much in common, the development of discrimination, appre- ciation of the good in literature and life, of human sympathy, and of an earnest desire to do worthily one's part in the world. And along with all these the pupil should receive some systematic training having reference to some one of the great industries, in order that it may not be said of our schools that they send out our youth "magnificently unpre- pared for the long littleness of life." Many of these aims our high school teachers are already seeking with intelligent and faithful labor. Their efforts deserve greater encouragement and more liberal support. TRAINING SCHOOL Under skilled teachers much has been accomplished in the Training School, along the lines for which it is so justly noted. Mr. Baldwin's report on the School will be found on another page. DRAWING AND MUSIC Few if any towns in the state offer greater physical ob- stacles to effective supervision than Barnstable, and the wear and tear of the transportation involved in visiting eight widely scattered villages can fully be appreciated only by those engaged in.the work. Since the cost of this transportation is paid by the supervisors themselves, their net financial returns are anything but generous. In spite, however, of the above obstacles and the disadvantages of- fered by the great variety of grading in the schools, excel- lent work is being done by the supervisors of both sub- jects. It is safe to say that few towns of the character and size of Barnstable can show better work in drawing, based on a more modern, comprehensive and wisely planned course than the work being done under the guidance and inspira- tion of our present instructor, and there is evidence than this is being appreciated by parents as well as by pupils . and school officials. 317 ONE KIND OF RURAL BETTERMENT NEEDED Perhaps not more than one-tenth of the voters of the town will do more than glance at the third column under the heading "List of Teachers" in this report. Yet the continuance of the conditions there indicated spells nothing less than disaster to the boys and girls of Barnsta- ble. A study of the facts there given shows that over fifty per cent. of our teachers have served the town less than two years and nearly one-third less than one year. How- ever difficult it may be for the average layman to even be- gin to appreciate the misunderstandings, loss of time, mis- directed efforts, lack of continuity, economy and exactness in school work, brought about by such constant change of teachers, the loss to the best development of our boys and girls is so immensely great that no good citizen ought to, ignore it, or do less than his best to bring about a radical change. The work of the teacher of the average rural school, if effectively done, is incomparably more difficult than that of the teacher of the city graded school. Needing, above all, teachers of highly competent ability, the average rural town seeks to obtain such by offering difficult conditions, insecure tenure and salaries from twenty per cent. to sixty per cent. less than those paid .by the cities and larger towns, offering in fact a mere existence wage. Yet with the resulting loss and change of teachers we wonder mean- while when an occasional pupil shows ari amazing ignorance of what he should know and an irritating inability to do what he should be able to do. Better teachers and the lessening of the number of grades and pupils to a room are the two foundation stones of the arch of successful instruction, and no amount of theorizing, argument or supervision will produce the desired results until these foundations are secured. It is not at all a question to be discussed by "educational experts,." but a situation, which, once understood in all its seriousness by 318 parents, calls for an awakening of the public conscience to our duties to the young, who are and ever must be "the con- tinuing hope" of the nation. Even if we may not hope to lessen the rush to the city, it' is our plain duty to send our young people there thoroughly taught in the fundamentals, with habits of close observation, clear thinking and persistent industry, and with some conception of their duties to their fellowmen. If our schools are not what they should be their gradu• ates will have few or none of these qualities. Some of them will drift back again to their home towns, as so many now do, taking up occupations requiring little skill or ability; others, remaining in the cities, will mix with the great mass of the unsuccessful and discouraged. And for such failures the mass of parents and voters in our rural towns are primarily responsible. It is in their power and in the power of none others to make possible the more adequate fitting of our young people for more worthy and effective citizenship. Our rural towns demand as good roads, as good mail and telephone service as obtains in the cities; why not as good teachers and as good schools? Are the latter less import- ant than the former to the future good of the community? But to secure such requires a financial policy, sincere enough. to realize, and courageous enough to act upon, the proposi- tion that only by offering the best can the best be secured, and that the best is nowhere more imperatively needed than in our rural schools. Says Dr. A. E. Winship, the highest authority in America on actual conditions in our schools: "The country school has in its keeping the future of America. It is the univer- sal medium of restoring a pure country citizenship. The country school can never do its work for American citizenship unless it is in all respects equal to the city school. Wages must be relatively the same for teachers in country and city. 319 Teachers must be specifically trained for work in un- graded schools. The country school is as unlike the city graded school, as a garden is unlike a wheat field. The country teacher must know and love country life and want to stay there." In our own town the need of an advance in the salarias of grade teachers is an immediate and vital one, conditioning all genuine and lasting improvement in the work of our schools. We, too, are paying to such teachers, attempting work which calls for the highest skill, ability and character, a bare existence wage. Many of our teachers are paying city rates for board. Perhaps in view of existing high prices these rates are not unreasonable, but they are higher than those charged in surrounding towns. The result is that some of our teachers are actually receiving a smaller net wage than those of neighboring and financially poorer towns, increasing the already extreme difficulty of obtaining desirable candidates for vacancies. If the basis of true democracy is giving"equal opportuni- ties to all," then our school system is far from democratic. It will become truly democratic only when our country boys_ and girls are guided and inspired throughout their school course by teachers equal in ability, breadth of culture and sympathy to those found in our most progressive city schools. This will become possible only through the direct action of thoughtful and public-spirited parents and voters, action as radical in nature as the need is imperative. Respectfully submitted, G: H. GALGRR. 320 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BARN- STABLE HIGH SCHOOL G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: Dear Sir :- I hereby submit to you my report as principal of the Barnstable High School: SCIENCE The Science work of the first-year class during.the fall term has been wholly along biological lines. Particular attention has been given to those.forms of animal and plant life that are found in the immediate vicinity of the school, and along our shores. For the present term the class will be occupied in a study of the Human Body, and in the spring a course in Botany, including Elementary Forestry will be given. In both Physics and Chemistry the aim has been to make, the work as practical as possible, to have the pupil see for himself that the work is really worth while, and that the knowledge gained in the class room is of some value in the everyday world. In Chemistry some very good work has been done in analysis of water. Experiments in food analysis will be performed by the class later in the year: All experiments are carefully recorded in note-books. The installing of a new cabinet in the laboratory enables us to give much better care to the apparatus and adds to the appearance of the room. MODERN LANGUAGES In September, the study of French was introduced into the second-year class. By this it is hoped that the pupil will obtain a much firmer grasp of the language than has 321 been possible hitherto when only two years could be giver. The teaching has been almost entirely by the conversational method, the end in view being to train the ear as well as the eye. In the German classes the interest has been quickened by the singing of German songs and by readings from the new book, "Im Vaterland." ATHLETICS A more active interest in Athletics has been aroused this year than ever before, the cooperation of the school authori- ties with the boys proving to be a good thing in every way. The football team played games with the Normal School and with town teams in the early part of the fall term. Soccer football kept the interest alive until snowfall. The grounds to the west of the schoolhouse have been surveyed and a careful estimate made as to the probable cost of grading and putting this land into shape for an athletic field. The estimated cost is $700, and so enthusiastic are the friends of the school in this project that already $415 of this amount has been raised. Contributions to this fand `may be sent to Dr. Heman B. Chase, Hyannis. k PROMOTIONS Since my last report we have done away with "condi- tional" promotion. A pupil can no longer pass on deficient in one or more studies. The good effects of this have already become manifest. At the end of the month I mail to the parent of each pupil who is deficient a statement showing in just what studies that pupil has failed to reach the rank required for promotion. In this way we hope to keep the home and, school in close touch with each other. 322 POST-GRADUATE WORK We desire as far as lies within our power to.. give to every pupil the best possible preparation for his life work, and to,this end every teacher is striving to the utmost from the time the pupil enters the first grade of the Grammar school until he is graduated from the High school. By looking at the statistics given further on in this book you will see that 16 graduates out of a class of 22 have con- tinued their education elsewhere. Of the class of 1910, sixty-three per cent. went to other institutions- of the class of 1911, seventy-two per cent. I am'trying to make that percentage one hundred.' From time to time, I learn of a parent who would gladly send his boy or girl to some higher school or college, but who dares not cherish the idea because of the expense: If any such read this report, I shall be very glad to have him talk the matter over with me. I keep in close touch with the boys and girls who go on and know quite well just how some have managed—financially—to go on. It would be unfair to them for me to mention in this report any of the various ways and means employed by them, but to anyone interested sufficiently to call upon me in regard to this matter, I may be able to point out a way for some other boy or. girl, and that is the important thing. A few weeks ago a pupil who has been with me for nearly three years, in respohse to that oft-repeated question of mine, "What are-you going to do with yourself?" re plied, "I should like very much to go to Normal, but I can't afford it." She was not aware of the fact that there is no charge for tuition at the State Normal schools, and that at the local normal school there is a loan fund for the benefit of such as need aid. She is now preparing to enter a normal school. Parents and pupils need to understand clearly that there is always a way for every boy and girl, who is in earnest, to obtain an education. 323 Note this offer for instance: A Harvard graduate, who desires that I shall not give his name publicity, offers finan- cial backing for one year at Harvard'.to any graduate of this school, who shall pass examination to that university. This gentleman states that if the student does good work during that first year there is no doubt whatsoever about obtaining the money for him to complete his college course. Parents and pupils should remember that we.have here in Massachusetts within a comparatively short distance from home, excellent professional and trade.schools. Respectfully submitted, LOUIS .M.

GALGER, Superintendent of Schools : While it is true that to make the work of this department what it should be, more time is needed; yet, under present conditions, much has been done in previous years. Much more can yet be done along fundamental lines toward fit- ting the.student to take his place in the business world. To improve opportunities in any line of work, one should have, first of all, the right mental attitude toward that work; and in this connection it is encouraging to recall the earnestnesss of endeavor and the steadiness of purpose ,shown by the commercial division of the class of 1911, and to note that a number of those now with us seem to b- gaining that active personal interest, that feeling of respon- sibility for the quality of their own work, as well as for the work of their class and school, which every member of such an institution should possess. For a number of years, the New England High School Commercial Teachers' Association has asked influential busi- ness men to tell its members just what training they think young people should have to fit them for the life commer- cial. It is interesting and helpful to note their agreement on first essentials. "Teach them," they say, "to be truth- ful, punctual, thorough, economical, clean and accurate. Encourage them to dress neatly, quietly and suitably. Teach them to spell, to use correct English, to write with facility a plain business hand, to perform the ordinary arithmetical processes quickly, to concentrate, to acquire what some one has called "the art of being kind," or th(, expression of good-will toward others which we call courtesy, to do their work independently and quietly, with the least possible friction, and , above all, teach them "to think relatedly and with definite purpose." 329 So then, in the work of this department during the east year, we have tried to use the subjects taught as helps in gaining these fundamental qualities,—as opportunities for the exercise and development of a proper appreciation of the relative values of.things, as well as for the acquirement of specific information. This year the commercial arithmetic has been made a first-year subject. It is hoped that the time thus gained in the second year may next year be given to the work in English. In these classes much time and attention have been given to drill work on simple concrete problems. The pupils have been trying to explain clearly and truthfully the processes used in solving these. In stenographic work the aim has been to give a solid foundation of principles, as large a working vocabulary as possible, and as much facility in the use of it as can be acquired by the students in the time available for this line of work. In the short,course we offer the interesting cul- tural possibilities of the subject must of necessity be ignored. The pupils have been taught the fundamental principles of accounting and given a working knowledge of their practical application. As an aid in securing neat and exact mechanical work and as a means of awakening a desire in the pupils to keep individual accounts, this study of book- keeping has .been of indirect as well as of direct value. The typewriting classes have had instruction in the care of the machines, and touch work has been insisted upon. The lessons have been varied as much as possible so as to give the student a general working knowledge of differ- ing phases of the subject. The clerical work of the school, with that sent in from outside, has been of direct assistance in making this course of practical value. During the past year no special drill in penmanship has been given, but this year we plan to use a part of the time at present assigned to first and second-year arithmetic and H-22 33� to bookkeeping for work in this study, in accordance with the general plan calling for drill in penmanship in all grades. ` Respectfully submitted, LUELLA R. LYON. 331 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE ELIZABETH LOWELI, HIGH SCHOOL. To Mn. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: ' The membership of,the Elizabeth Lowell High School is smaller than last,year, as we have only twenty-seven pupils `recorded on our register, but the attendance is much better than last year. The pupils have been very loyal in attend= ing school during the .many stormy days that we have had, and thus our school work has not been retarded. Our Latin course of study.is practically the same as last year, but we have made some changes in our English course. United States.History is given this year, and great interest is being shown in this subject. Commercial or Business Arithmetic is being given to the Senior class. This study is certainly a practical,one and ought to be a help to all who take it. Very often we meet men who say that the High School education is of no use and that it is time wasted, because High School graduates know nothing about Arith- metic. This course in Arithmetic ought in a measure to stop such adverse criticism, but even then, much still de- pends upon the pupil himself. We also have added a brief course in natural science for the first year class. The equipment of our school has been greatly unproved by converting the room upstairs into a first-class drawing room. This room now makes it possible for us to utilize both rooms downstairs for recitation purposes, while the drawing lesson is being given. In the laboratory room we have a new chemistry cabinet, which, when completed, will add to the appearance and usefulness of that, room. The working spirit of the school is much better than last year. We have been striving to make it plain that our High School has no place for loafers and idlers. The recent term examinations showed quite pleasing results. Seven pupils gained honors by having ranks of 80 per cent. and over, ,while several others. were close to that grade. The work in English has shown a marked improvement, both in composition and in oral recitation. The pupils who have earned honors have been those who have studied at home. We repeat that home study is necessary in order to .obtain noteworthy results. Daily study counts more than spasmodic bursts of diligence. Very few parents have visited the school this year .and we urge that more of them come in to see and hear the work that we are doing. We wish to commend the. faithfulness and. hearty .co operation of our assistant. �} Respectfully submitted, LeROY M. HANDY.

Number of Graduates Entering Higher Institutions Hyannis State Normal School, ] 335 REPORT ON THE TRAINING SCHOOL. MR. GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools, Dear Sir: Ever since I have been connected with the schools of Hyannis, the teachers of the Training School have fre- quently expressed dissatisfaction with the noon hour con- ditions. Even when the weather is good quite a number of children find it impracticable to go home for dinner and when the weather is bad this number is considerably in- creased.. The lunches eaten by these children are always cold and often unhygienic. These lunches were, at first, eaten hastily, with no thought of a table or of table man- ners. After this hasty lunch the children rushed out to play with no one to see that they did not get into quarrels and other troubles incident to the unsupervised noon recess. Gradually some of these things have been improved but still there is no provision for warm soup, which is so cheap, so easy to provide and yet so wholesome, or for a suitable place for eating the lunches and for playing games on stormy days. During the current year Miss Crowell, our teacher of physical training and hygiene, has been devoting her noon hours to supervising the children and to studying their needs. This work has been entirely voluntary on the part of Miss Crowell and has been done because of her great in- terest in the problem. I have asked her to give to us the results of her observations in a brief report, which I take pleasure in submitting to you. REPORT OF MISS CROWELL TO MR. BALDIVIN. My dear Mr. Baldwin:— We have, on the average, twenty-four children who are obliged to bring lunches. On stormy days the number rises to about thirty-two. 336 Last year it was customary to have the children gather in one of the lower grade class-rooms under the supervision of one of the regular teachers. The children sat either at school desks or on benches with their boxes iri their laps and ate almost in silence, it being impossible to allow much conversation in so widely scattered a group. As soon as a child finished eating, he was allowed to go out-of=doors to play and all were expected to finish and go out in time to.give the,teacher an opportunity, to go home'for lunch, after,the necessary cleaning-up had been,done. Such;an arrangement was open to several; objections. It cultivated•the habit of hasty;eating, a habit which,re- acted unfavorably upon both .health and good manners, it brought the children to a ineal with no thought,of wa�h- ing their hands or otherwise,preparing themselves for it.; it sent them out to play vigorously after a meal; thus in terfering with digestion. On stormy days play�in'the base- ment, where dust from the cement floor filled the air, was another unfortunate and unwholesome feature. When one considers that these same children are obliged to bring their lunches every day for nine years of their school life, it is.evident that the,training c%vhich the noon hour brings, good or bad, constitutes a very real part of their,education. For a long time it has seemed to me that the noon hour, instead.of being a weak part of our school training, might be made the basis for valuable, practical lessons in hygiene. With.this in mind I obtained permission from Supt. Galger and the School Committee to take charge of the noon hour. It seemed to me highly desirable to approximate hoiiie conditions, at least to the extent of having the children sit at table. In the attic of the Training School there is a large space about the central chimney, separated from the rest of the attic by a matched-board partition. We used this for a lunch room. Four oblong dining tables borrowed from 337 the Normal School were put together to form one long .table capable of seating twenty-six. With this equipment the children were able to eat under conditions somewhat like 'those of a family table. Paper napkins, fresh every ,.day, were put at each place .to serve as individual table-cloths. The children were encouraged to conveirse quietly, to eat slowly and to observe ordinary table "manners. When a child. had finished eating and had asked to be excused; lie washed-his hands and dried them on his paper napkin before going to the game table'on which were games loaned by tha different children. After all had finished'eating, a few more minutes were spent in quiet play and then all but two of the group went out to the playground. These two re- mained. to put the room in order. This last duty gave opportunity .to e verY child in turn to get some valaable lessons.in housekeeping. Gradually the attic became too cold and, since Christmas, -we have been obliged to go back to our old custom of eating in one of the classrooms. The experiment upstairs lasted :long enough for me to make some interesting observations. First of all, I noticed a marked change in the'rate at which the meal was eaten. On the first day, all of the chip- d.ren had finished eating within seven,minutes. Under the .influence of the atmosphere of leisure produced by being seated at table and. being allowed to converse, the time occupied by eating was gradually extended to twenty and then to thirty -minutes. With the improvement in the rate of eating there came a corresponding improvement in table manners. The children who had been carefully trained at home helped to teach the others by example some of. the commonest courtesies, such as refraining from talking when the mouth contains food, taking small mouthfuls and asking to be es cused. upon leaving the table. In many cases the quality of the hunches improved. A few of the more thoughtful and intelligent of the parents had 338 been in the habit of providing for their children custards and other soft desserts instead of the proverbial bread and cake lunch, repeated day after day. Their example was followed by others so that quite a number of jars'o.f milk and of soft food of various kinds appeared. The method of packing lunches improved in some cases, a paper napkin appearing where before the food had been packed in a bare tin pail. The children had no warm food. Several of them ex- pressed a desire for it and recently one girl from a good home has sometimes brought a thermo-bottle and distri- buted warm cocoa to a few of her friends. In'spite of the lack of warm food the meal upstairs was, in many respects, home-like in character and much more healthful and re- fining in its influence than it had been in other years. As the weather became colder, we-tried to make our- selves comfortable by wearing outside wraps at table but we were finally obliged to abandon the third floor lunch . room and go to one of the class-rooms on the first floor. The children are no longer gathered at one large table, so some of the family spirit is lost. There is not so good an opportunity for games as there was upstairs, so the c_.hil dren now remain sitting at table until half past twelve and then go out-of-doors at once. The clearing up is a much longer and more difficult process because of the non- movable furniture. It seems to me that a great deal of benefit would come from having a special lunch room with movable furniture. The room in the attic could easily be transformed into a very comfortable lunch room. At present its matched- board walls extend only part way up to the roof of the school building and a skylight in the roof lights the room. If a glass cover were put over the top of the room and a stove connected with the chimney which is already there, we should have facilities not only for keeping the room warm but for heating food brought from, home and possibly 339 for preparing at school and serving warm food, at cost, to those who wished to avail themselves of the opportunity. In some schools it has been found possible to keep the price of soup as low as three cents a plate. If we could do this, it would bring the possibility of warm food within the reach of any child. Respectfully yours, AN,NIE S. CROWELL. The above report of Miss Crowell seems to present the matter very well as it now stands. May I assure you that the Normal School, stands ready to aid in any attempt on the part of your Committee or of the women of Hyannis in meeting the needs which are apparent to all who consider the matter carefully? Very respectfully yours, 1 W. A. BALDWIN. 340 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC. To MR. G. H. GALaER, Superintendent of Schools: In accordance with custom, I submit through you, to the citizens of Barnstable my report of the work laid out and accomplished this year in Music. We have endeavored to show that music can be correlated with all other school subjects. It has been our purpose therefore to point out the place of music in the general edu- cational scheme; to demonstrate its value as a mental train- ing; and to prove the artistic possibilities to which music may rise in our schools. Music has two distinct places: the spiritual, which is elusive and intangible, and the formal, which is definite and exact. It goes without saying that the child, to be edu- cated in music, must have a sufficient experience in both of these phases. Hence, there are two tests to be applied to his musical education, which are satisfactory and final, First: 'he shall sing his song as naturally as a bird flies, with the utmost freedom and grace. Second: that he shall read at sight and shall understand the construction of song. REAL ART IS A UNITY Music is the expression of emotions and feeling through the medium of certain forms and elements Each of these phases—the spiritual and the formal— is a com.Dlement of the. other and not a contradic- tion; and it is only by recognition of the separate func- tions of the two phases, and by their combined action in the training of the child, that he can be properly developed musically. Some one has said: "In music every element has two conditions: It may be lifeless, inert, isolated; or living, as when several notes if grouped together make a melody." A child may have a complete knowledge of "elements" and yet may remain unmoved by song, and absolutely insen- 3h1 sible to its inspiration. And it-is this problem which has confronted us, the teachers of Barnstable. To teach art rather than mere technicalities, has been our work this year. VOICE TRAINING Of primary.importance is the work of voice training. Every boy and girl in the schools of Barnstable has been given the opportunity to 'cultivate liis or her voice, the speaking as well as the singing voice. And much stress has been laid on daily exercises to stimulate more perfect articulation, and correct placing of tone. One of the first steps in this direction was to instill into the minds of the pupils the importance of keeping the'nasal passages''clean and'open; that deep breathing might be established. For the benefit 'of the citizens of Barnstable who may' be interested to follow step by step the work laid out and accomplished in each grade throughout the year 1911-12, 1 will give an* outline of each teacher's work which, for the most part, has been successfully followed—where the work has not been done, it is, owing, to the necessary break in- volved in change of teachers. Work accomplished in the 1st,year of. School: I. SONGS BY JMITATION. , The first thing we, did with those of the first grade,.was to teach them a song by note-a song all:on one tone of the, • scale. The object of this method is to encourage the un- musical child.'and to prove 'to him that he can make the same sound that his neighbor, the natural singer, pro- " duce's. After the song is learned—and every pupil in the class can sing that one tone in bell-like quality, and in perfect rhythm,—a song on two tones of the scale is studied, in the same manner; then three tones, and so on until the whole " eight tones of the scale have been mastered. By this time 342 every child in the class can sing the scale, and the objection- able monotone of the unmusical is eliminated. II. RECOGNITION The next step is the representation of the staff on the board. The songs already learned by note (imitation) are now put on the board for recognition, and sung at sight. III. NOTATION I Scale songs and simple exercises in 2-4, 4-4 time are written on the board, and sung readily at this stage. From the beginning—the very first lesson, in fact—we work for pure, "round" tone. With the upper, grades we work unceasingly in. this direction; but with our little ones we have only to watch carefully our own tones, for, children are little imitators—the child voice responds with charming frankness to the influence of its teacher. Hence, it behooves every grade teacher to make a study of and give special attention to the placing of her tone. IV. RHYTHM From the first the teacher has marked "time" by her own emphasis with pointer, or free bodily movements, which the children have unconsciously imitated; but at the be- ginning of the last half of the year come a few technicali- ties—a few fundamental principles to cover a large part of the ground already gone over. To "teach the thing before, the sign" is a well-known principle of pedagogy. A summary, then, of our first year's work—the most im- portant year of all—is as follows: GRADE I. A repertoire of art (or note) songs rendered with pure tone and proper expression; and an appreciation and under- standing of all first-grade principles, i. e.: sight reading in 2-4, 3-4,_4-4 time. '3h3 GRADE II. I believe the only new feature this year of the work of grade II has been the close following of Samuel W. Cole's methods in sight reading, which I consider exceptionally good. Our songs have been taken, for the most part, from Silver Song Series, No. I. Each song being prepared by a system of interval drill or "skips" which occur in the song. These skips are written on the board and practiced daily as a preparation for the reading of the song. when ac- curacy is accomplished, the song is dictated by the teacher, then written on the board, and sung by syllable. The grade teachers express themselves as being agree- ably disappointed with the results of this method, and are pleased to find, that in cousequenee. of its correct teaching their second grade pupil can read at sight 2-4, 3-4, 4-4, 6-8 two-part music with great accuracy. Rounds, and two part songs from the First Reader, together with daily drill of vocal exercises comprise the work of the second grade. GRADES III and IV. On account of the crowded conditions of the schools our third and fourth grades have studied together, consequently the work covered has been a review of third grade princi- ples with the essentials of fourth grade. The aim has been to develop an understanding of "tempo," an appreciation of rhythm; and a careful training, of the ear. The writing of simple exercises in 2-4, 3-4, 4-4 time, and the writing of scales has been,done with accuracy and intelligence. The latter part of the year simple chromatics will be introduced. GRADES V and VI. Grades V. and VI, are for the above named reason taken 944 together. In this class we take up 6-part measure; and be- gin the study of chromatics in earnest. Three-part work is introduced; also compound time. GRADES VII, VIII, IX. While in grades VII, VIII and IX we are doing chorus work almost exclusively, still the teachers are untiring in their efforts at constant review of first principles. The. development of the major scale, and the study of the minor mode together with a little elementary harmony and musi- cal form comprises the work accomplished in these grades during the year: The work of teaching music in the public schools is unquestionably a missionary movement, and no one.should undertake it who is not prepared to give much time, thought and effort over and above that for which he is paid. The nature of the work calls forth the best that is in one. To realize that only about one per cent. of the popula tion of our United States has a formal education beyond the age of 14, and that the musical instruction that is given during this period is, for most people, all the training that they ever receive on the subject—to know this spurs one, (who loves his art and loves also his fellowman) ,on. to working with one's whole soul to establish in the.heart~ . and minds of the corning generation the love. for,. and ,ap- preciation of the greatest of all the arts—Music. Excepting, perhaps, for the work done by the High Schools, which. have so little time to devote to music, I can cheerfully state that I am satisfied with the results of our y-ar's labors, ands I wish to thank my fellow teachers, in- d.ivid.ually and collectively, for their faithfulness in carrying out my ideas; and for their hearty response to my de- mands. To the Principal of the Barnstable High School and to our Superintendent I can say only that their appreciation 345 and sympathetic co-operation have proved a stimulant to me, and hence a promotion to the work. Respectfully yours, FRANCES LOUISE STOCKTON. 846 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING TO MR. GEO. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools : Last year's record in drawing was marked by increased power and interest on the part of the pupils and by the efficient and cheerful cooperation of the teachers. Progress has been seriously retarded in several schools by the long continued presence of scarlet fever and whoop- ing cough. Drawing cannot be given by absent treatment and children who are kept from school by illness or who lose weeks during the cranberry season can not keep pace with their class-mates. An unusual number of changes oc- curred among the teachers, and such changes are rarely without effect on the drawing. New teachers who propose to stay soon adapt themselves to existing conditions. But this work suffers in the Bands of substitutes or teachers without knowledge of drawing. The skilled teacher can dr. good work without the sup rvisor, and half the supervisor's strength is in her teachers. Too great stress cannot be laid upon the value to the child and to the community of retaining well trained, broad- minded teachers,—men and women who know the conditions of rural schools and can adapt themselves to their environ- ment and grasp its splendid possibitities of service. I have stated in previous reports that it is a delight to teach the responsive children of this town. As I watch these boys and girls continuing their studies in higher in- stitutions or beginning to do the world's work, I am moved to beg that they shall be in no way handicapped by defici:nt preparation for the strenuous life of our times. Give them a chance to enter the twentieth century arena able to com- pete with the city-bred student or worker. Times have changed and their demands must be met. I believe that parents are more vitally interested than educators in the problems of readjustment now confronting 847 its and that it is the duty and privilege of parents to aid in settling what are the essentials that must be taught in our schools. Are there not ways and means by which in most country homes the work of the school can be strengthened and extended and the home and school brought into closer relations? One hour and a half per week is allotted for drawing, and all this time is needed for drawing itself and for work- ing out its problems,—that is making simple objects in wood whenever this can be done by the boys or by the use of ornamental designs by the girls for practical purposes in the home. Can an additional hour per week be taken from the.more abstract studies for teaching sewing and the use of carpen- ters' tools, as is done in Yarmouth? Our present handicraft work is done in November and December. Then the drawing periods in every grade are devoted to the making of interesting objects. The ex- cellence of these objects depends upon careful planning, accuracy of execution and upon the taste and skill shown whenever lettering or simple ornament can be properly added. The results last December were gratifying, show- ing in many cases marked gain over the work of preceding years and justifying the outlay of time and strength. Bench work at Barnstable was resumed last winter through the interest of the principal, Mr. Hopkins. Boys take turns in working with him while the supervisor gives the drawing lesson to the remainder of the class. A work bench and model stand have been made and a tool cabinet is now being built.. This work has been carried on with enthusiasm and a good degree of success in spite of difficult conditions. Cotuit grammar school has a room well adapted for wood-work, waiting for a complete equipment. Last spring a bench was made and some good . work done by each boy and girl in the grammar school with the few tools provided. �h8 Systematic instruction could be profitably given in this building under its present principal. The room over the hall in the Cotuit high school, has been fitted up for drawing and bench work and when it is completely furnished we can state with pride that very few country high schools can offer as good opportunities for work in the manual arts as the Elizabeth Lowell school. Barnstable high school this year sent its students whc had specialized in drawing to Wentworth Institute and the Normal Art School, where all are making good. At present all the Barnstable high school pupils who are required to study drawing are working with interest and enthusiasm. The members of the junior class who elect drawing have done good work in applied design, and the seniors are enjoying a course in picture study. Our present teacher of science expects each pupil to draw readily the picture or diagram needed in zoology, chemistry or physics. This demand for clear truthful drawings to illustrate the structure and growth of natural forms presents draw- ing in a new light to many in the entering class and em- phasizes its practical value. Pupils begin to realize that drawing is a necessary means of expression for every student of science, and to work accordingly. tlll VU-Jlia wiio iiavc auy �uv u�u�i — iu��.—E, w :ur,uw.. school should review drawing in their senior year. This was one of the conclusions of our late and lamented director of manual arts, Mr. Frederic L. Burnham, and its wisdom is evident to all who know the place that drawing holds in the normal schools today. Our experiments with our limited equipment for man- ual training in the basement of Barnstable high school have proved that the average boy needs systematic instruction in the use of tools. Most of the boys who have had no such instruction have used tools more or less all their lives, yet few of them 349 see the need of making exact plans before they begin to work, of laying out their work with accuracy, of working to a line, or saving stock. "About right" satisfies them. They need thorough training, systematic instruction, that breaks up slip-shod habits and teaches that right is right. Inexpensive arrangements could be made by which regu- lar lessons could be given in this large well lighted base- ment. Might not the proper introduction of this form of manual training go far towards solving the problem of the first year boy in the high school? Last spring prizes were offered by Mr. James Otis for excellence in mechanical and free-hand drawing in all classes in which drawing was required. These were awarded as follows: First year: Mechanical drawing, Harrison Ray Doty; Freehand, Ralph Milliken. Second year: Mechanical, Manuel Suzan; Freehand, Doris Chase. The influence of this offer was felt by every pupil in these classes and better average work resulted. With hearty thanks to all fellow workers whose courtesy and cooperation have aided, the work of this department this report is Respectfully submitted, LUELLA FAY MAYNARD, 350 LIST OF TEACHERS, JANUARY, 1912 SCHOOLS TEACHERS ENTERED SERVICE OF TOWN Barnstable: Grammar Geo.

' One hundred and fifty-eight years ago there lived in Barn- stable a young man who, though feeble in body, but strong in mind, according to his will made Nov. 13th, 1754, gave to his sister, Sarah Cloghan, 66£, to his pastor, Jonathan Russell, 5£,and to his loving neighbor, Wm. Ebenezer Childs, 59, and named him as his executor. These amounts were to be paid from his per- sonal property; his real estate he gave to the Town of Barnstable for the support of the Poor "from one generation to another for ever" and never to be sold. So by the will of the young man, Parker Lumbart, who died Dec. 27, 1754, the property became an l Almshouse one hundred and fifty-eight years ago. . The Farm extends from the brook crossing the Osterville and Cotuit road south of the Railroad Station to the creek .in the great marshes called the "Town Dock." Much of the Farm is swamp and meadow land—about twenty acres are cleared land and cultivated as pasture and grass land. . The soil is a heavy clay and suitable for hay only. A good garden is maintained yearly. The stock of the Farm consists at the present time of one horse, three cows, two,hogs, and about eighty hens, and the product from the cows and hens is all the income received. The barn, sheds and other buildings are convenient and sub- stantial. The house, as near as can be learned, is not the original in which Mr. Lumbart lived—the original stood more to the north, and the present house was built aljout a hundred years ago. It is solid and. in good repair and consists of twenty-five rooms. The Inmates' part consists of dining-room, sitting-room, kitchen, washroom and sixteen sleeping rooms with eighteen beds. In 1911 the Overseers installed one of the best water plants to s-2 10 be had—a two-horse power Fairbanks & Morse gasoline engine and a Gould double acting pump forcing the water from a driven well in the basement to a tank in the attic holding six hundred and twenty gallons. From there it runs through brass pipes to all parts of the house, supplying two bathrooms, two closets, three lavatories and a long sink where the Inmates wash. In the last year the house received two good coats of paint and was thoroughly repaired, and it is today in a good and attractive condition. The House is under the care and supervision of the Overseers, and kept by a Warden and his wife as Matron, who have been here five years. It is also inspected the first of each month by the house physician, J. Haydn Higgins, who is a member of the Board of Health, and by the State Inspector, Francis Bardwell of Sherborn, annually. Outside of those mentioned above, the Inmates have received only fourteen visitors during the year, although fourteen of them have relatives in town. The Inmates are well cared for, supplied with warm clothing, good beds and plenty of good wholesome food. The Overseers have always been ready to co-operate with the Warden, helping him in every way possible, and are more than generous in their supplies, and it gives us great pleasure to know that the House as a whole stands first in the State. There are many days that'are looked forward to by the In- mates as "Red Letter Days"—they are the Fourth of July, Thanks- giving and Christmas, when the Inmates are remembered by their friends and especially by the King's Daughters of Hyannis, who never forget them. Religious services are held every last Sunday in the month, and are looked forward to with great anticipation. But little sickness has visited the house during the last year. In the early spring one old lady,eighty-four years of age,had pneumonia,but she is in good health now. As a whole they are as happy and contented as it is possible to be away from home and friends. The statistics are as follows: Whole number of Inmates for 1912 22 Largest number at one time 17 Smallest number at one time 13 Present number 16 Average number 14+ 11 Ages: Between 80 and 90 5 70 " 80 4 60 " 70 3 " 50 " 60 3 " 0 " 50 1 The average number of Inmates in the State is eight and the average salary paid the Warden is $480 and taking twenty houses whose town population is eight thousand and less, the general expense of this house is only $36 above.the average, although our average of Inmates is almost double. The cost of board for each Inmate taking the expense of 1911 as a basis is $3.44 per week, less than many other smaller houses. Taken as a whole I think the Barnstable Almshouse is an institution in the Town of which the people should be proud. ALEXANDER B. CHASE, Warden SELECTMEN'S REPORT ALMSHOUSE ACCOUNT Alex. B.

MILK INSPECTOR'S REPORT Marstons Mills, Jan. 28, 1913 To the Board of Health of Barnstable, Gentlemen: It once more becomes my duty to report to you, my work on Milk inspection. There has been one conviction for selling watered milk. There have been 39 cow stables white-washed, and 15 new windows added. I have issued 168 licenses, and have made 255 dairy in- spections. Too much praise cannot be given the sediment tester you allowed me to buy., If the average layman is told of the number of bacteria in a certain quantity of milk, it is hard for him to realize its importance. But when I can go to the back of a man's cart, and in one minute, with the tester can show him how much, or how little dirt there is in his milk, it is something that he can see, and fully appreciate; and as milk is considered the dirtiest food that is taken into the stomach, we should try to have it as clean as we can, and that is what I am trying to do for the town. A state inspector has visited the town twice; and visited several of the dairies each time. After the second inspection, he reported to the State Board of Health an improvement of 21 per cent. over the first; showing that the milk conditions are improving, and that by education, rather than coercion, 113 It seems that there is some simple method by which the consumers could be taught the value of milk as a food. And when 'it is fully understood how much cheaper it is than most other foods we buy, food value considered, there will be much more milk consumed than there is today. Many people have. the idea that when milk has been skimmed, that about all of the food value has been taken away; but only the fat has been removed, which is a small part of the food value, and many people who cannot drink whole, milk, might be able to drink skimmed inilk, and it be very very beneficial to them. Very respectfully, GEO. T. MECARTA, Milk Inspector FOREST WARDEN'S REPORT Report of Forest Warden for year 1912 : Month � No.of fires Cost of Fires January 2 $3 50 February 1 2 00 March 6 74 92 April 6 34 76 May 4 20 85 June 6 62 44 July 8 28 11 August 1 3 10 September 1 1 75 October 1 2 25 Dec. 26, 1911, Paul R.

AND OS'I'ERVILLE The most important advances in school facilities for many years were accomplished during the ,year at Barn- stable Village and. at Osterville. The school building at Barnstable village was entirely reconstructed. The roof was extended and raised, to two stories in the front, the entire interior remodeled., four rooms, three finished., replacing two, an additional stack built, a second furnace and a small steam heater installed, the original basement deepened and a second basement built for the girls. The building is now well lighted, heated and ventilated, conforming to all legal requirements. The inauguration of an intermed.iate-school, made possible by the third room, is already proving its value. The new four-room school building at Osterville is, without doubt, by far the best constructed building of its kind in the county of Barnstable. The design of the build- ing, the quality of the work and. materials, its complete equipment, fulfilling the most modern requirements, marl: an era in the school history of the town of Barnstable. Should the work of the boys and girls show as great an improvement as does the new building over the old., the town will be repaid many times over for its expenditure. TRANSPOl TA'1TION The increased expenditures for transportation were due chiefly, to an increase in the number of train scholars and increased cost of service on the Cotuit-Santuit, West Barn- 129 stable, ancI Hyannisport routes. Few complaints have been received during the year. ENROLi1IENT, ATTENDANCE, ETC. The total enrolment for 19.1.1-1912 showed a slight de- crease from that of the preceding year, while the percentage of daily attendance showed an increase. But little truancy occurred. during the year, one village which has given much trouble in that direction in the past, showing a marked ini- provement. The enrolinent for the fall. term of 191.2 was consider- ably greater than that for the same period. in 1911. The present membership of the lower grades is about twenty- five per cent. greater than that of six or seven ,years ago and points to an increased membership in the upper grade in the near future. RESIGNAT:I:ONS ANI) APPOINTMENTS Resignations the past year were fortunately relatively few, but as was to be expected, they were from. teachers or marked. ability and. success. The teachers who either re- signed. or declined re-election were Le Roy _1,L Handy, Elizabeth Lowell High School; R. B. Houghton, West Barnstable. Grammar School; Diary illcConnel, Centerville Primary School; iMabel R.. Coombs, seventh. grade, Train- ing School; Frances L. Stockton., Supervisor of 11lusic. Mrs. Addie G. Crosby of Osterville, who for more than thirty years had given splendid service to the town, applied• for and was granted a year's leave of absence. The following teachers, trained as indicated, were ap- pointed to fill the above vacancies: B. W. Sanderson, Bates College, Elizabeth Lowell High School;'Taintor Parkinson, Dartmouth College, West Barn- stable Gramniar School; 1lIindwell A. Littlefield., Hyannis Normal School, Centerville Primary School; Russell Scott, 130 Oxford University, seventh grade, 'Training School; 1A. Genieve Leonard, Hyannis Normal School, Osterville Pri- mary School; Sylenda B. Morris, New England Conservatory of Music, Supervisor of. Music. Ellen J. Ormsby, Hyannis Normal School, was appointed teacher of the newly or- ganized intermediate room at Barnstable village. All the new appointees had had professional training and successful experience. REPORTS OF SUPERVISORS AND PRINCIPALS Attention is called to the reports of the various super- visors and principals. "On the firing line" daily, and in direct contact with the pupils, they know intimately the conditions and needs of their several departments. SCHOOL FINANCES The close of the fiscal year of 1911 showed an unex- pended balance of $231.90 in the school department. 1912 shows a deficiency of $792.77, due to expend.ittlres for re- pairs and for fuel considerably exceeding the estimates. SUMMARY OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES, 1912. Total Available Balance or Appropriations ExpPnditnres Deficiency School Purposes, $25,221 61 $25,288 39 -$66 78 Text-books and supplies, 1,600 00 1,598 03 +1 97 Repairs, 1,500 00 2,034 51 —534 51 Transportation, 4,650 00 4,843 45 —193 45 Totals, $32,971 61 $33,764 38 —$792 77 ANALYSIS AND ESTIMATES. In spite of an excess expenditure for fuel of $580..15 over 131 the estimate; the total expenditures for "School Purposes" overran the amount available by only $66.78. That a larger deficiency did not occur was due to the fact that the mis- cellaneous receipts (dog tax, tuition, etc.), exceeded the estimates by $221.61, and that no attempt was made to make the small increase in the salaries of grade teachers of three or more years' service suggested in last year's report. An unexpended balance of $1.97 remained from -the appropriation. for "Text-books and Supplies." The excess expenditure of $193.45 for "Transportation" was due to the causes mentioned under that head. The regular salary schedule for the elementary schools is at present as follows: Grade teachers; first year $405, second year $450, third year and after $495. Grammar principals; first year $675, second year $720, third year $765. The schedule is not ironclad. Under this schedule five teachers became entitled to an increase of $5.00.per month last September. Outside the sch(,dule the salaries of two grammar principals and one grade teacher were increased $5.00 per month, and that of the sub-master at the high school $7.50 per month. These in- creases, and the employment of an additional teacher on full time at Barnstable village, will call for a total of about$550. Three weeks to be made up at Barnstable will call for about $140, while salary increases for janitors at Barnstable vil- lage, Osterville and Sant.uit will amount to $300, giving a total of $990 as the probable gross increase for "School Purposes." From this should be deducted a possible de- crease of $75 for miscellaneous expenses and of approxi- mately $250 for fuel, leaving as the probable net increase needed for "School Purposes," $665. The.appropriation last year was $24,000. It is impossible to estimate with any degree of accuracy the probable expense for fuel. The new buildings at Osterville and Barnstable will undoubtedly con- sume more coal than the old. The estimate of $2,250 as the expense for fuel for the present year is probably a k . , :k" 133 mininnrm, and is based on the assumption that the railroad- coal combine will. graciously omit the creation of an artifi- cial "shortage" next winter. The amount needed for "Text-books and Supplies" will be the same as last year, $1600. At the present rate .for barge service and the increased cost per head for railroad transportation, it is probable that close to $5000 will be needed for "Transportation" this ,year.. The new regulation in regard to commutation tickets will. add about 10 per cent. to their cost. The amount needed .for ordinary repairs will be deter- ?nined at the annual town .meeting. RANK OF BARNSTABLE IN SCI3OOL APPROPRIA- TIONS In the tax for schools, per thousand dollars of valuation, the .rank of Barnstable is two hundred twenty-fourth, 223 other towns in the Commonwealth taxing themselves more heavily. The expenditure for text-books and supplies is $1.75 per pupil, the average expenditure of all other towns in the. county being $2.39 per pupil. The figures are derived from the state records of 1.91.1, the latest available at the time of writing. The expenditure of. the Town of Barnstable per pupil for books and supplies during 1912 was $1.97. AN ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENT FOR MAINTAINING GOOD SCHOOLS With slowly but steadily increasing expenditures in the school department it is neither a, pleasant nor popular task to advocate any action tending to a further increase, how- ever slight. But eleinentary justice requires a plain state- inent of certain facts vital to the continued well-being of: our schools. Many of our teachers are paying full city rates k ' 3'. } S • g2 E • Y ¢5 ' s S k ,. • f yt�Yr�4c �w�yrf �i' _ w ,s f .3 135 for board, while clothing and all other necessities of life are abnormally high. Teachers must live fifty-two weeks a ,year, while profitable summer employment is open to only a very few. Their rate of pay should involve the same considerations as obtain in other skilled occupations in which it is not possible to work during all the months of the ,year. Our minimum salary for our grade teachers is be- low a living wage, our maximum barely such. The town of Barnstable has kept well to the front among the other towns of the county in increasing from time to time the wages of the grade teachers, but the original salaries were so abnormally low that we have not yet reached the point where we can afford to stop. One has only to know the kind of work done and influence exerted by our teachers who have been longest in service to realize that the re- tention of good teachers is far and away our most vital and our most difficult problem. It must be solved, even at con- siderable, sacrifice, if we are to do our simple duty to the boys and. girls who are directly dependent on us for the means which are to enable them to face the problems of life effectively. PROGRESS OF THE SCHOOLS Real progress in most rural schools is so slowly made that it is difficult in annual reports to avoid a large amount of uninteresting repetition. During the ,year the tendency to concentrate on the fundamentals, so-called, has been .further developed and some improvement in concrete results has been shown. The course in arithmetic has been more closely followed, with more uniform results. Much attention has been given to penmanship, the work in the commercial department of the high school being especially thorough. Spelling is taught: from the words in daily use by the 136 pupils, supplemented by the "Boston Word List," "Spauld- ing and Mil.ler's Speller" and "Aiton's Descriptive Speller," and tests given seem to indicate fair proficiency, in spite of occasional grotesque misspellings of common words. The system of reading now in use is gaining in pop- ularity with the teachers and in the quality of the results obtained.. In upper grade reading no essential changes in content or methods have been made. Prince's Practical. English Grammar has been adopted for the eighth and ninth grades. Mr. Prince's long and intimate acquaintance with actual school conditions and school limitations and his exceptional clearness of thought and directness of aim are reflected in the qualities of his text-boot:, and it is hoped that its intelligent use will lessen. the causes for complaint, which, from time immemorial, high school teachers have alleged to exist. Just what consti- tutes a reasonable grammatical equipment for a grammar school graduate, however, is a question which even the Supreme Court itself might well approach with fear and trembling. Following in general the plan of the "Committee of Eight," in its report on the study of history, Gordy's "American Beginnings in Europe" has been adopted for the seventh grade. The scheme is a somewhat experi- mental and difficult one and its successful accomplishment will call for a high degree of skill and a large fund .of common sense in the teacher. No subject is more difficult to teach well and none more important to good citizenship to so teach than history, and that, and its allied subject, civics, should receive far more effort and thought than are com- monly given them. MUSIC AND DRAWING The splendid wort: of our Supervisor of Drawing, extend- ing its inf pence far beyond the technical limits of her sub- 137 ject, is too well known to grateful pupils and parents to need any words of commendation here. Progress in music is greatly interfered with by the con- stant change in instructors. The work is extremely hard and we are able to retain competent supervisors only a year or two at most. Our present Supervisor is trying hard to unify the work throughout the town and is receiving;the hearty co-operation of the teachers. THE STATE BOARD AND RURAL SCHOOLS One of the most vital factors making for progress in our rural schools is the work of the present State Board of. Education. Long and valuable training and experience, and personal investigation of rural school conditions, have made it possible for the Board to render most effective ser- vice yin the direction of suggestions for improving and strengthening our country schools all along the line. The various courses of study, carefully prepared under the direction of the Board, by practical school workers, prom- ise to be of high value to teachers in their daily work and in obtaining more uniform and satisfactory results than have been possible in the past. These courses are being gradually adopted by our Barnstable schools, with 'such modifications as local conditions seem to demand. THE MOST VITAL DEFECT IN THE RURAL SCHOOL PROGRAM Education for good citizenship involves three funda- mental aims, namely, to secure to the individual Physical. health and strength, Mental and moral power, Ability to earn a livelihood. That the first two aims are directly the work of the public schools all. agree; as to the third some difference of B-10 0 138 opinion exists. Yet the ability and the will honestly to earn a livelihood constitute the first essential of good citizen- ship and public safety. Under modern conditions, how- ever, few industries and still fewer homes offer to children the kind of systematic training leading to such ability. Our ,young people must obtain such training in the public schools or postpone it beyond the time when it can most effectually be given, and suffer thereby a lifelong handicap. Many city schools, forced by strong social and economic pressure and by the law, are providing such training in varied forms, but the great majority of country schools, deadened by the inertia, of custom and crippled by financial stringency, are doing practically nothing in this direction. Yet in many country communities, the support of public sentiment once accorded, something of real value could be done, though the work would. have to be simple, confined to a few lines and inexpensive. Refusing such training deprives the country boy and girl of one of their most important and fundamental rights and makes for in- dividual. .fa,ilure and inefficient citizenship. MEDICAL INSPECTION Besides performing his regular duties as School Physi- cian with his accustomed faithfulness, Dr. J. Haydn Biggins has given particular attention the past year to the individual child manifesting abnormal features, whether mental, moral or physical, and his careful diagnoses and wise advice to teachers and parents have resulted in treat- ment of a most helpful and promising character in the case of many children whose future has heretofore seemed most dubious. Under the influence of school physicians, schools generally are giving much more thought and effort than in the past to questions of practical hygiene and the treat. went of "defective" children. 139 AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT An experiment, which may prove an aid in solving the difficult problem of maintaining, among those staying at home, vigor, enterprise and efficiency, in a community con- stantly losing a large proportion of its most energetic young men to the cities, is now being tried in the town of Har- wich. An Agricultural High School Department has been established. Five towns contribute pupils, and financial and other aid is received from both the state and national. governments. An outline of the work offered is given below: OUTLINE OF COURSES IN THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT OF THE HARWICH HIGH SCHOOL. A. Agricultural Science. This Course consists of a broad general text book study of agricultural principles and practices. The topics in- clude the composition and structure of plants and animals, their growth, improvement, feeding and management; the chemical, physical and biological properties of soils and fertilizers; the origin of soils and the maintenance of soil. .fertility; horses, cattle, sheep, swine, poultry; cereal, forage and fiber crops; fruit and vegetable growing and forestry, insect pests, plant diseases, farm management, the farm home and community. Two or three text books will be covered during the four years' course. B. Project Study. 1. Kitchen Gardening—An elementary course, serving as an introduction to the more advanced courses in plant production. A study of the location, soil requirements and plans of a garden; seed selection, seed testing, choice of varieties, planting, fertilizing, and cultivation of fruits and vegetables adapted to a family garden. Attention will also be given to Ornamental planting and home improvement such as improvement of lawns, planting of shrubbery, and shade trees, dowering plants, construction of hot beds, etc. 140 This course will be given even years ending 1912, 1914, 1916, etc. It will alternate with the course in Poultry which is given odd years. 2. Poultry—A course introducing the study of domestic animals. Poultry rearing as a business, breeds, breeding, incubation, brooding, rearing, feeding, fattening, killing, picking, packing and marketing of poultry and poultry products. Poultry buildings and equipment, home grown crops for poultry, kinds, quantities, seeds, soils, rotations, tillage, harvesting and storing. This course will be given odd years ending 1913, 1915, 1917, etc. 3. Commercial Fruit Growing—Orcharding and small fruits not before dealt with. Soil and climatic adaptations, varieties, propagation, planting, pruning, spraying, picking, grading, packing, storing and marketing of fruit. Market Gardening—A study of the important vegetable crops ad.aptad to the region, their requirements, adaptation, varieties, culture, enemies, harvesting, storing, marketing, seed selection and improvement. Farm Machinery—Implements and buildings used in Fruit growing and market gardening, their cost, construc- tion and use. These courses to be given to Juniors and Seniors in even years. 4. Farm Animals—IIorses, cattle, sheep and swine; judging, breeding, feeding, management, sanitation and disease. Milk production, testing, handling, and market- ing. Farm Buildings and Equipment—Conveniences, plans, construction and upkeep. Farm Crops—Cereal and forage crops for feed, and for sale, rotations, cultivation, harvesting, etc. Farm Meehanies and Engineering—Purchase, operation and care of farm machinery including gasoline engines, out- fits for water supply and sewage disposal, concrete mixing and construction, elementary surveying and mapping the farm. Farm Management—This course considers the farm as a whole, and the relation of the different enterprises such as fruit growing, gardening and stock raising to one an- other; types and systems of farming, selection and pur- chase of a farm, forms of tenure; layout of farm, amount, and distribution of capital, cost accounting, efficient use 141 of labor, machinery, and horses, preparation and plans for the organization and management of specific farms. This enterprise will be watched with friendly interest by well-wishers of the future of the Cape. HIGH SCHOOLS The intense and earnest endeavors which have charac- terized the work of our high school teachers the past year have not been without result and there has been a notice- able increase in seriousness of purpose and power of appli- cation on the part of a large majority of the pupils. The reconstruction of the high school program is pro- ceeding slowly. At Hyannis, beginners are offered four years of Latin or German or of both. The present French classes will take the French planned .for originally, pos- sibly more. The freshman class will. have one term of general history. The vexed problem of the first year's program is not yet satisfactorily solved; educational au- thorities differing widely thereon. Its solution will be a matter of experiment and time. Through the inspiration of their instructors and by the co-operation of parents a notable proportion of the grad- uates of the Barnstable High School continues to fit for lives of broader usefulness by entering higher institutions. At the Elizabeth Lowell High School the regular pro- gram is being somewhat closely adhered to. Until some further modifications in college requirements shall be made, the changes needed in the program of this school to render it of greater practical value to many of its pupils must pro- bably be postponed. A marked improvement has taken place in the spirit of the school during the last few years, and its graduates who have entered the profession of teach- ing are doing notably good work. 142 A PRESENT NEED. The vexing and difficult problem of the revision of the conventional course of studies characteristic of the rural high school is now receiving much attention. The need of such revision, now admitted even by the most conser- vative, has become constantly more imperative, as profound and rapid changes in industrial, social and political life make themselves apparent. The old program offered good disciplinary training under a good teacher, but it attempted too many languages, its mathematical work was too formal, it failed to give sufficient attention to modern applied science, to history and to civics, it prepared its pupils almost solely to meet scholastic tests rather than the varied tests of daily life, and only too often the spirit was that of seeking knowledge and poorer for individual advancement rather than for service to society. To make a program that will continue to give the pupil some comprehension of the won- der and worth of human achievement in the great fields of literature, art, science and history, and still give that speci- fic knowledge and training by which lie becomes an effective and unselfish doer of his natural work in the world, is a task which will be solved only by patient and long-continued co-operative effort. THE HIGH SCHOOL CONFERENCE The most significant educational event of the year on the Cape was the County Conference on the Small High School held at Hyannis last November, attended by high school teachers and superintendents representing every town in Barnstable county. Following a careful personal study of the high schools of the Cape, Deputy Commissioner Orr ' and State Agent Kingsley summed up the necessary limita- tions of the small high schools, showing the necessity of some changes in the program and outlining clearly some of 143 the changes tentatively proposed. The program or "Course of Studies," as planned is designed to (1) To give certain elements of education that are needed by all boys and girls, including those who are going to col- lege. (2) To keep in the high school a larger proportion of those who enter. (3) To attract many who do not now enter. (4) To direct boys and girls into those vocations for which they are adapted and in which they are needed. (5) To continue to provide "preparation for college." It is proposed that the work of the first two years shall aim to provide the best education for pupils of high school age, whether planning to go to college or not, and that, the specific preparation for college shall be given largely in the last two years. In the work of the first two years the aims are to give the pupil (1) Appreciation of good literature and practice in writ- ten and oral expression. (2) Appreciation of the value of science and practice in applying its principles. (3) Appreciation of the value of coinniunity and, collective activities, and practice in securing first-hand information concerning such activities. (4) A thoughtful attitude toward the choice of vocation, information upon various vocations, and, when possible, opportunity to test capacity in some particular field. A tentative four years' course was submitted and is here given: First Year Required:—English, Natural science (introductory), and social science (community and collective activities). Elective (select two) :—Practical arts, Algebra or busi- ness arithmetic, Foreign language. 144 Second Year Required:—English. Elective (select three) :Social science (history or geography), Natural science, Practical arts, Geometry, Foreign language. Third Year Required:—English, a natural science. Elective (select two) :—Foreign language, English his- tory or Ancient history, Practical arts. Fourth Year Required:—English, United States history and Civics. Elective (select two) :—Foreign language, Mathematics, A Natural science. In addition, the school may provide music, free-hand drawing and physical training. Space will not allow a report of the vigorous debate following the presentation of the above outline. The pro- gram is receiving the careful and earnest study by teachers and school officials which its vital importance demands. During no year of which I have knowledge have the teachers of Barnstable shown themselves more thoroughly faithful, conscientious and efficient than in the year just past. Receiving in the future, as in the past, the co-opera- tion of the parents and the hearty support of the School Board, we shall have good reason to look for solid results in the development of our boys and girls. Respectfully submitted, G. H. GALGER. 145 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE ELIZABETH LOWELL HIGH SCHOOL. To Mr. G. H. Galger, Superintendent of Schools: I herewith present the annual report of Elizabeth Lowell High School. The small enrollment, so much regretted by last year's principal, is even smaller this year. Only 22 were registered at the beginning of the year; and two of these left during the first month. All the others have attended very regularly, our average thus far being 94.9 per cent. When the absence of one pupil means a loss of 5 per cent. in the percentage, it will be seen that we have an average of only one absence per day, including some irregularity during the cranberry season, and on the part of one of those who dropped out. This shows a good degree of interest, for if a pupil is not interested he is constantly seeking excuses to stay away from school—and in the present age, a very small excuse is usually sufficient. Bing so small, our school is like a large family, working together and playing together in a spirit of comradeship, with no factions or jarring natures to cause discord. It is, of course, possible to give more attention to the individual., but with our ample aecommoda-Dons, forty could be taught as easily as the twenty; for each class is represented and the same ground must be covered as for a larger number. We are following the regular courses closely, the only - variations being a class of Bookkeeping for the two upper classes and one in Ancient History for Seniors. The plan of reading and reporting on one book each month is con- tinued, and provides a means of becoming acquainted with English authors and their works, of various periods and lines of thought. In this way, many books are read which would not be, if the pupil were left to his own inclinations. 146 Often a taste. for reading is developed where it would not be accomplished under the analytical treatment necessary in teaching College Requirements. We also keep in touch with current history by the use of "Current Events," daily papers and magazines. It would seem that we are requiring too much foreign language for our courses to have a satisfactory balance. Two years of Modern Language are enough for the aver- age pupil and a ,year could thus be saved to be devoted to Science, Mathematics or History. It seems difficult to find a place for vocational training of any kind under present eonditions. During the Fall term we had. the pleasure of a visit from Mr. Orr of the State Board of Education. An inspector with Mr.. Orr's kindly nature is sure to be welcome_, what- ever may be the criticism which follows. The conference at Hyannis brought together those of us having similar problems, and suggested a remedy for some of those which are most perplexing. I wish to add a wror.d of appreciation for Cotuit Library: I have .found it unusually complete for a small village, and being open daily it is always accessible and helpful. Miss Howard's keen personal interest in the pupils and their work has been a valuable aid. It is a serious loss to the school as well. as to the community that circumstances have compelled her to resign her position here. We are very fortunate in having Miss Flewelling with -us for the third year. I am glad of this opportunity to commend her good work in the school, and. tier active inter- est in the pupils. I wish to express my appreciation of the friendly atti- tude of the pupils as shown in many little Ava.ys and for the kindly spirit of the townspeople whose interests we are trying to serve.

G. H. Galger, Superintendent of Schools: Dear Sir:— I hereby submit to you my report as principal of the Barnstable high School: In the year just closed it has been the purpose of the teachers of this school to make the work if possible more intensive than that of previous years, to bring the pupils to a more definite realization of what such work means and to inspire in them ambition to make the most of their oppor- tunities. The present day pupil has somehow come to believe that work is play and that on the teacher rests all the responsibility for their progress. Consequently we have found it no easy task to make the pupil realize that noth- ing really worth while can be accomplished without hard, persistent, conscientious daily work; that only by the inde- pendent mastery of each problem as it presents itself can he obtain the power to meet the greater problems of school a.nl life and that power, power to attack and conquer un- aided one's own life problem is after all one of the greatest, of attainments. In spite of all difficulties we have held fast to our purpose. We have tried to check the growing tendency to depend entirely upon the teacher, to lead the pupil to think for himself, to have ideas of his own—not merely to reproduce the thought of others—and I believe that we are meeting with some measure of success. SCIENCE . The work in first year science is arranged with three aims in view: first, to interest the student in scientific subjects; second, to encourage observation of natural phenomena; 150 and third, to secure the liberal attitude necessary to under- stand the scientific facts of every-day experience. Three subjects are taught during the first year in science. Botany includes considerable class work out of doors, and en- deavors to stimulate interest in the growing world of nature. Physiology in the winter months gives a funda- m.enta.l understanding of the human body and its conserva- tion, the study of Hygiene. During the spring term, Physical Geography will be in These subjects are well adapted to the beginner, and serve to prepare tlue way for the somewhat more difficult science work of the second and third years. The work in Chemistry includes as much practical work as is consistent with a course in General Chemistry. Among the practical subjects considered are water analysis, bleach- ing and dyeing, and various technical operations employed in industrial chemistry. Three seniors are doing advanced work in applied chemistry, which includes analysis of foods, soil analysis, and a study of bacteria, yeasts, and moulds, including Work with a, compound microscope. HISTORY AND OERMAN. The freshman course in English History has been sup- plemented by a course in (General History. The two courses continue throughout the year. The present classes in History have shown considerable ability. A new German Grammar is being used with the beginners in German. The book presents the essential features of the so-called New or Direct Method, and was highly ap- proved by the visitor from the State Board of Education. Two divisions in the first ,year class result in more personal attention to each pupil. The senior class in German are interested in a German Magazine and before the end of the year they will be read- ing Scientific German. WALTER S. ATWOOD. 151 ENGLISH. That it has been possible this year to increase the num- ber of hours given to English, has been most gratifying. Thus, more time has been devoted to grammar and to composition. It has not been proved satisfactorily that the ordinary pupil acquires by instinct the technical knowledge of his mother tongue, necessary to express himself. On the con- trary, it is not until a thorough knowledge of the common elements of English grammar, gained by constant drill ex- tending over many years, has become a second habit to him, that he can be expected to be able to grasp the prin- ciples necessary to state his thoughts clearly. With this as a necessary foundation, it is not, however, until he has learned by constant practice in oral and written work, how great is the power that lies within himself to express agree- ably to his fellow beings the multiple interests making up his own personality, that he can become fully awakened to that same power in others. This consciousness once present, leads on to wider outlooks. It awakens an in- terest in,,and an ability to choose the best in thought that is being put forth today, and it brings out a sympathetic understanding for the best that the past has given. It is with the above aims in view; namely, that the pupil may learn to express himself readily, and that he may grow into his rightful heritage, as an heir to all the ages, that the teachers, heartily co-operating, are endeavor- ing to strengthen.the English Course. LENA B. NUTTER. CODIMEBCIAL SUB MCTS. The general. aim of this department wbich was outlined in the last report, still remains essentially the same, ex- cepting as the progress of the past year has lifted and broadened it. 152 As a step toward the fulfillment of a desire to extend the efficiency of the course, the number of hours given each week of the present year to the purely commercial subjects has been increased, as indicated by- the comparative sche- dule given below. . Number of periods offered weekly in the following sub- jects during the years 1911 and 1912 Fourth year Stenography 4 5 " " Typewriting 3 5 . Bookkeeping 4 5 Third year Stenography 2 5 " " Typewriting 2 5 Total 15 25 This change, by means of which the work of the depart- ment has been greatly strengthened, was made possible by doubling the third year typewriting classes with those in other subjects, thus conducting two recitations in the same room at once. In spite of the advantages of this arrange- ment it is by no means an ideal one. Because of conflict in individual programs, there is hardly a period during the day when the machines are not in operation. Obviously, the resultant noise places considerable nervous strain upon the pupils reciting in other subjects. It is true, also, that the typewriting classes have less personal attention than formerly, but this is more than offset by the power gained in additional practice. The third year pupils are doing remarkably good work in typewriting. As shown by the foregoing table, our course in steno- graphy and typewriting is now equal, in number of recita- tion periods, at least, to that of the city high schools. As a further step toward a better all-round equipment, a much-needed course in penmanship was introduced last spring for the benefit of the first-year pupils. This prac- tice has been continued three periods weekly up to the pres- 153 ent time, the object being to attain an easy, .rapid, and legible style of writing. Given entering pupils who possess a knowledge of the elements of English grammar and composition; who have acquired a reasonably generous vocabulary, including an acquaintance with phonics; who have gained an accurate knowledge of arithmetical processes; who have attained facility in the proper use of pen and pencil; and who are prepared to supplement this fundamental knowledge by faithful heed: to direction, and by intensive, unremitting effort, we should certainly be able to fit them well for such positions as they may secure. However, as a success factor, the best of courses can never wholly take the place of definite, steady endeavor. A fellow teacher used to say that if we could awaken early in our pupils the deep earnestness of purpose necessary for the accomplishment of things most worth while, we could well-nigh assure their success. It is encouraging to-notice that here and there in our midst are pupils who consciously possess this quality-, and, indeed, throughout the depart- ment the students, as a whole, work with patience and cheer- fulness. There seems to be a growing sense of respect- ful regard for fellow classmates and their work, reflected possibly from a dawning realization of the part each has in the great whole. In working with them, this unity of interest is shown by their friendly desire to co-operate and the elimination of undesirable friction. Certainly the con- ditions present are conducive to the development of well- equipped, effective office assistants who possess "That ag- gregation of virile and decent qualities which we group together under the name of character." LUELLA R. LYON. B=11 Believing that some knowledge of the history of past civilization is an aid to an understanding of other studies in the school curriculum, a course in General History for the first year class is being conducted by NIr. Atwood. At the beginning of the fall term, German was substi- tuted for French in the second-year class. The Alumni Association at its December meeting re- minded us of its continued interest in the school by a gift of fifteen dollars for the purchase of a picture to be placed in the main room. At no time has a better school spirit existed than at present. An increasing number of pupils look upon their teachers as friends and helpers rather than as taskmasters. Among the teachers themselves there is the heartiest co- operation. Respectfully submitted, LOUIS M.

To Air. George H. Galger, Superintendent of Schools: Dear Sir: In response to your kind invitation I am glad to submit through you a few words regarding the Training School for the consideration of my fellow citizens. PRACTICAL EDUCATION. The demand of the times is more and more for practical results. More and more, everything, whether it be im- plement, organ or institution is being tested by the question, is it doing the work for which it was intended; does it function? Modern education cannot claim exemption from such tests. Nor does modern education which is worthy the name attempt to avoid the issue. On the contrary, one of the principal issues which modern education claims for its own, is directly along this line. It considers the child and his needs and then examines the school to see whether it is doing its legitimate part toward ministering to these needs. Nearly all of the changes which are coming into our schools are caused by attempts to give the children a more practical educa- tion. This is why cooking and sewing have come into all schools .which can afford to have them. COOKING AND SEWING IN THE SCHOOLS. Among the reasons why cooking and sewing are being taught in the public schools, four occur to me as of primary importance, viz.- 1. Every girl ought to be able to cook and sew.as a pros- pective home-maker. 2. The training of the hands is a very important part of education. 159 3. When properly taught these subjects afford valuable mental training. 4. In connection with these subjects the pupil comes to see the importance of language, arithmetic and of art work. SCHOOI, GARDENING. Training quite similar to the above is obtained by the boys in their school garden work. In connection with. this work eighth grade boys raise vegetables, sell them, make .out bills, bank money and checks,'draw money from the. bank with checks, and in fact, learn all of the ordinary business forms in doing their own business. The amount of time spent in the garden is very small. During the whole school year only about fifteen to twenty school hours are so spent, but the good effect upon the other school work is, we believe, very great. EDUCATION OUTSIDE OF SCMOOL. Nearly everyone who is not a pedagogue or a preacher knows that the best part of his education, that part which he uses in everyday life with which to do his business, was obtained outside of schoolrooms. Much of that which he did get in the schoolroom has not been used and so has been sloughed off and forgotten. He also, knows that if the education which he got outside of school could have been supplemented by the education which the school might have given him he would be better off than he now is. MODERN EDUCATION. Now modern education is trying to do just this kind of connecting up of the education outside of school with that inside of school., so that he will find his school work more real, more vital, more worth while. To do really good work one must have the right attitude toward it. He must see that it is worth while, that it really amounts to something and that it amounts to some- thing for himself. , 160 ARTIFICIAL SCHOOL WORD. Much of our school work is artificial and dead because the problems to be solved are the same old problems which have been solved over and over again and always without effecting any change in the school life. The children are apt to feel much as prisoners who remove stones from part of a yard only to turn about and move them back. It is said that the same prisoners will do much more work and be much happier if they use the same stones in building their own prison wall. CHILDREN BUSY AND HAPPY. We try to keep the children very busy doing things which seem to them worth while. They do not commit to memory so many useless facts, but what they learn means more to them. They are happier in their school work; they read and study more books than ever before and they know better how to use the knowledge gained. Two questions we ask. 1. Are the children growing in thinking power? 2. Are they growing in the right attitude toward life? The proof is found in the amount and quality of work accomplished and in the spirit of helpfulness developed. "Learning to do. Doing to earn. Earning to live. Living to serve." A TIME OF READJUSTMENT. In a time of such readjustment as is now going on throughout the world there are certain to be differences of opinions regarding every change. We must take it for granted that some mistakes will be made, but no one is now willing to confess himself a "standpatter," we are all progressive if not "progressives." Is it then strange that some mistakes are made in education? 161 If a man looks at his neighbor who is bringing up a family he can always discover some grave mistakes which the neighbor seems to him to be making. Sometimes'he even sees mistakes which are being made by his "better half" in his own family. Is it surprising that when he looks into the schoolroom, where the one teacher is trying to train forty children, he will occasionally discover some happenings which seem to him queer? IDIPORTANCE OF THE TEACHER. It has often been said, "As the teacher so the school." The best that we can do then is to secure the best possible teacher, give him considerable liberty and sympathetic support, and in case of dissatisfaction go straight to him and try to have a good understanding with him. MUTUAL CONFIDENCE. The greatest need of any school is mutual confidence between the home and the school. This will lead to mutual helpfulness. We should recognize the fact that all con- eerned desire to accomplish the same thing, viz: To make the children into helpful citizens. SELECTION OF TEACHERS FOR THE TRAINING SCHOOL. Great care is exercised in the selection of teachers for the Training School. Three points we always try to keep in mind: First: Is this person a man or woman of fine character? Second: Is he well trained for his work? Third: Will he be able to get on well with the children and their parents? I believe that the teachers now in The Training School are without exception strong along all of these lines. We are enabled to have such teachers only because The State supplements the salaries paid by the Town. During the current year the State is paying toward the salaries of six teachers $2545, or an average of about $424.. '^s 162 ASSISTANCE FRODI STUDENT-TEACHERS. During the first half of the year the teaching is prac- tically all done by these teachers and the school is a model school. During the second half of each year the Senior Normal Students who have been in training at the Normal School for one and a half years go into the Training School to learn from the Training School teachers how to do the real work of the class room. The regular teacher of the room is responsible both for discipline and for teaching. This makes it possible to give much more attention to back- ward children and to do many things which could not well be clone in a school with only one teacher. TRAINED SUPERVISORS. Besides the regular teachers the Training School re- ceives the benefit of expert supervision in music, drawing, physical training and industrial work and in all of the regular subjects. This is furnished by the State at a cost of more than $700. GENEROUS EQUIPMENT. So much for the teaching. Let us turn now to the matter of equipment. The Town furnishes for the Training School books, paper and other material at the same rate per pupil as to the other schools of the Town. The State supplements such supplies by purchasing such books and other equipment as may, from time to time, be needed to put this into-the most favored class of the schools of the State. The pupils of the 'Training School have also free access to Normal School laboratories, manual training room, cooking room and to any other appliances tivhich may seem desirable for broadening their horizon. Classes in geog- raphy have the free use of the stereoptican with about one thousand fine lantern slides; opportunities are even given upper grade children to see Venus, Saturn and other planets through the fine Normal School telescope under the 163 leadership of the instructor in astronomy. The Normal School library is well provided with books on plants, animals, biography, and all other subjects which come into the work of the children. These are at all times accessible for use in the Training School. GRADE OF WORK. It will readily be seen that it is possible to afford, here in the Hyannis 'Training School, opportunities for an educa- tion equal to that offered by any public school in the State. The school is often visited by experienced experts in education. These approve of the general plan of the school and compare its work favorably with that of the best schools of the country. It is interesting to note that nearly all of the things which are urgently requested for the schools by our own superintendent of schools and by superintendents of similar towns throughout the State, such as higher salaries and more money for equipment, are taken as a matter of course in our Training School. It is well sometimes to count our blessings and to cheer each other on our -Way. Very respectfully yours, WM. A. BALDWIN 164 REPORT OF THE SliPERVISOR OF DRAWING. To Air. George H. Gal.ger, Superintendent of Schools, Bear Sir: There have been no marked changes in drawing during the past year. In the higher grades a steady.gain in power can be noted in most of the pupils. The grade teachers, with three exceptions, returned to their schools in September. This fact has greatly strengthened the work of my department. It takes time for even expert and experienced teachers to grasp the prob- lems of the country school of several grades and some months pass before the best work can be done for the pupils. Parents sometimes think school is school and one teacher will do just as well, as another. They do not realize that changes among faithful, capable teachers must decrease efficiency for a considerable time. Aloney paid to retain strong teachers.is an investment that touches the heart as well. as the pocket of every tax-payer who wants Barnstable's corning citizens well-fitted for their life work. We have scored. for the manual arts this ye..tr in Cotuit and the village of Barnstable by introducing sewing systematically and increasing the wood-working equipment in both buildings. The teacher and pupils of the Cot-nit school deserve commendation for their efforts to help pro- cure additional tools for their workshop. 'l.'he School Board promised a sum for tools equal to that which the school could raise. Stimulated by this promise an enter- tainment was given in Freedom Hall., whose proceeds, with the promised addition, have given this work-shop a fair equipment. The lessons in precision and. accuracy learned in the shop are already telling on the school.-room habits of these boys. They are more alert when directions are given and are drawing with more intelligence and care, 165 The wood-work in Barnstable village is done in an un- finished room of the remodeled building. Two carpenters' benches are now in use in this roo.rn. One of these was made two ,years ago when the present principal undertook to carry forward. this work in spite of the disadvantages of carrying on carpentry and drawing in the same period. c The.other bench was made last fall in our new shop. A comparison of these benches shoes a marked and .most sat- isfactory-gain in the work of these young boys. One little fellow who has learned to use tools in this school reported to me last fall that he had earned seventy-five cents a day during part of the vacation because of the instruction he had received in school. Last December the boys in this building chose to make brackets, shelves, and various articles needed as the classes settled in their new quarters, instead of making things to take home as Christmas gifts for their friends. The girls of the intermediate and grammar schools of Cotuit and Barnstable village sew under the direction of the intermed.iate-room teachers on Friday afternoons while the boys from the same rooms are receiving instruction in their shop-work. Drawing and sewing lessons were combined in December in these schools, the drawing being represented by the old- fashioned cross-stitch patterns Nvith which we used to ornament gifts made with the needle. It is only fair to state that the beauty and accuracy of the work on the old- fashioned, samplers of the great-aunts and grandmothers from which we took our best letters were examples that ought to stimulate their easy-going descendants. - Che work of the average pupils in Barnstable village al- ready shows how much more can be done for them under the three-room arrangement now possible for the first time in that section. Santuit suffers at present from the burdensome handicap of the one-room school, and many pupils in many grades. 166 There is no suitable place for the assistant to work and it is a constant struggle to hold the work up to our past Santuit standards. I often wonder as I meet the good citizens of this town week after week as we, your supervisors, drive over this seventy-five mile area, if you do not question what good comes from all this traveling and teaching. I believe many are still. saying "What does drawing amount to anyway?" It should help meet the demands of the hour for efficient men and women. Drawing, properly taught, trains the eyes to see quickly, to see essentials, the big facts of form and proportion in their true relations. A boy should know when things are plumb and level if his eyes give him facts as a basis of judgment and action. He should be willing to lay out a garden by an orderly plan instead of with straggling rows and uneven beds. He should be more alert and less slipshod in everything he undertakes, with the grit that makes him finish whatever he begins. The grammar school aims to send out boys and girls who can represent simple objects as they see them and make drawings of plant forms that are true to life. They should be able to show a carpenter by means of a freehand sketch with dimensions or a ruled drawing made to scale, just how a set of shelves, a cupboard, or a table should be made, or to understand the carpenter's own plans for any simple piece of work. A boy.should feel that the natural way to explain to a blacksmith just what sort of a brace or rod he wants made is to show him a sketch of the object with dimensions properly placed. He should know if he wants to make a box, a sled or a boat that it is wise to first make the drawing by means of which he can determine just how much stock he needs, so that he can count the cost be- fore he begins his job. He should be able to read working drawings well enough to work from a foreman's simple blue- prints, without assistance. Time is spent in color study primarily to give each child 167 greater delight in the world of beauty around him, to enable him to choose papers for the walls of his rooms and carpets for his floors, that are restful to live with, or for instance, to help him decide what colored clothes and neckties should be worn by the man with pronounced red hair. He or she should be able to use color or direct its use on the outside of buildings in a way that adds to the beauty of the home and the town. Let us go beyond the life of the village and. consider the relation of drawing to manufactures. Do we realize that every machine is made from drawings, that the draftsman's plans are followed when the machinery of a big plant is set up? That a slight error in a drawing may render a machine useless and cause heavy loss? The thought that guides all. mechanical processes is constantly expressed by drawings. Every tall building, every big piece of en- gineering construction must be described by drawings that enable skilled workmen to make these visions of trained and gifted minds realities. Drawing is the universal language of skilled workmen the world over. By means of it and the training that goes with it some of our own boys are today doing valuable work at good wages in the outside world. In the jewelry manufacturing district centering near Attleboro, the towns, aided by the state, are to have voca- tional courses in design and metal work, not only for boys in the day schools, but for men already at work in the factories. These workmen know that their earning power increases as they increase their artistic, as well as their technical knowledge. The more beautiful the product of the factory and shop the greater the return in money to the manufacturer and the laborer. The buyer with taste to recognize a fine thing is of as much value in the commercial world as the skilled producer. The study of color and design in the public schools is constantly increasing the number of such buyers. A drawing teacher of long and rich experience sums up the benefits of drawing in the following terms: 168 "Forethought; The planning of a piece of work before starting." "Concentration; Constant effort to do the very best work." "Self-reliance; Confidence and courage to do the work set out." "Persistence; Sticking to the work until it is finished." Our teachers and pupils received much stimulus and inspiration, last winter, from preparing drawings for an international exhibition of drawings from public schools, normal schools and art schools held at Dresden, Germany, last August, at the fourth International Congress of Art Teachers. Our drawings were sent to Albany, where they %were submitted to the committee in charge of the exhibit from the rural schools of the United States. The draw- ings sent to Albany represented the work of every school in town under my supervision. Every mark on our papers was made by our children,the lettering of the primary sheets being done by older pupils. Every drawing bore the words "Barnstable, Massachusetts," as well as the child's name and grade. Photographs were accepted showing high school draw- ings too large to be sent; stenciled and block-printed de- signs; the boys at Barnstable at work at their bench in the old school-room; and the entire grammar class at West Barnstable, some sketching from the windows while the others drew with T squares and triangles. _ Our work constituted nearly one-third of the entire rural school exhibit from the United States and received com- mendation. The drawings that were not sent to Dresden have been used by the Art teacher of the Albany College in her classes as examples of good work done in country schools. The work of our high schools after the first year is largely individual. We endeavor to develop each pupil. along the lines of his taste and purpose in life. The 169 young man who is preparing for Wentworth Institute or a Technical school should be prepared to do easily and well the drawing demanded in his school. The pupil with especial talent for drawing can prepare for an art school, not with the idea that he or she will make a living painting land- scapes or portraits, but because a thorough art education opens many avenues for self-support along the lines of com- mercial advertising, drafting and designing. The best art schools today-teach not only designing, but the construction of the articles designed, and many students are placed in paying positions on their graduation. ° Our high schools should send well-prepared pupils to the Normal schools. Drawing is optional in the last two years of our high schools, and pupils who take the required work without effort or interest and drop.it the moment the law allows, decide at a late hour in their senior year to go to a normal school. It is then too late to remedy their neglect and they enter absolutely unprepared. We are attempting to remedy this deficiency by means of a special class for Normal candidates, whenever we know of their purpose. Science drawing beyond the required work of the first two years is needed if any standard of efficient expression in physics or chemistry is to be maintained. Most pupils fail to see that they should use their drawing as a means of dear expression in the sciences and wherever maps aid in illustrating historical topics. More stress must be laid upon these phases of the work in our grammar schools until drawing seems to the child a natural aid in descriptions or explanations. The last and present senior classes of the Elizabeth Lowell School have printed excellent posters by means of which they have advertised their school entertainments. The B. H. S. programs of the last Junior Promenade were designed and printed, a hundred and fifty of them by the juniors themselves, and merited commendation. B-12 170 Good lettering when it is used for such purposes, or meets the demands of commercial advertising, is designing of the most.practical sort and well worth doing. The James Otis prizes for excellence and effort in draw- ing were awarded as follows: Seniors for Art Note Books.—Mary W. Murray, Mary M. Hallett; Juniors:—Grace E. Bursley.

Respectfully submitted, LUELLA FAY MAYNARD a REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC Mr. G. H. Galger, Superintendent of Schools: Dear Sir: I have the honor to submit to you the annual report of. the Music Department. The object of the course followed this year is fivefold: first, to develop in the pupils a love for good music; second, to help all the children in the schools to read music; third, to help them to sing songs well with clear, pleasing tones; fourth, by means of a variety,of songs, to provide the children with a medium for expressing their emotions— thus adding to their happiness; fifth, to.build character. In order to accomplish our purpose, the daily work is _ assigned under the following heads: voice and ear training, sight-singing and song interpretation. Believing that most young children can learn to sing, much time is given in the first grade to teaching the morno- tones. Daily practice in reading at sight is given in each grade. It is claimed by musicians that sight-singing requires more mental. power than almost any other study. By means of individual singing we endeavor to make all the pupils self-reliant and to help the slower pupils to keep pace with the quicker ones. Only by having such recita- tions frequently can we secure self-dependent readers in ?Le upper grades. Throughout the course, effort is made to train the ear of the pupil. Dr. Damrosch is our authority for saying that the fundamental requirement for proper musicianship is ear training. Two-part singing is taken up in the intermediate grades and three-part singing in the grammar grades. During the second half of the year the boys in the eighth 172 and ninth grades have practice in singing from the F clef. We try to increase the interest already felt in music by utilizing individual talent. The little concerts given in the primary rooms are of interest and profit. In the high schools we have been able to hear by means of the graphophone some of the great masterpieces as sung by the best artists. The high school pupils have also added to our pleasure and aided in broadening the work by con- trihu0rg vocal and instrumental selections. By the singing of songs at the opening of school and at intervals during the day, also by observing National days with appropriate songs, much can be done to mold the character of each pupil. Phillips Brooks once said that a school song in the heart of a child will do as much for his character as a fact in his memory or a principle in his intellect. At Thanksgiving time "The Pilgrim Fathers" was taught in all. the grades and was sung with much enthusiasm by all. Our patriotic songs are always eagerly learned by the foreign, as well as by the native children. We agree with those who say that every child at the end of the school course, should be able to sing from fifty to one hundred of the songs which are the heritage of the English speaking race, and trust that this will be true of those who graduate from the grammar schools in June. Cordially thanking all fellow workers for their efficient co-operation this report is Respectfully submitted, SYLENDA BEEBE MORRIS 173 REPORT ON THE ADULT SCHOOL AT BARNSTA- BLE VILLAGE To Mr. G. H. Galger, Superintendent of Schools: The educational work in behalf of our New Americans at West Barnstable has met with appreciation. A class for the study of English has assembled Thursday evenings during the past year, with the exception of stormy evenings and a mouth's vacation in July. In the winter and spring the average attendance including both sexes was about 18; in the summer and fall it was half this number. During the hour's session there is given besides the instruction in English and simple arithmetic, which the text-books pro- vide for, general instruction by means of question and answer in geography, history, and civics. The average age of those attending is about twenty ,years. - Those starting in who are middle-aged or over are apt to fall out soon, with the excuse that "English is too hard." Recently a picture show was given with lantern-slides, illustrating life in Finland, and wholesome American child life. There were present thirty-five persons. This was the first picture - show ever held in Finnish hall, and it has borne fruit in stimulating interest in the work of the class. The work has now a good, start, and for the welfare of-the Town should be maintained. My desire is to find some one will- ing to share with me some of the burden of teaching.

REPORT OF TREE WARDEN. The wort: of the Tree Warden the past year has been the care of the trees we already have, no new trees were put in. The necessary trimming and digging around young trees was done, and the Elms were covered with spray for the Beetle, which were very thick. The work of spraying was clone with a powerful. high pressure machine purchased by the Tree Warden from the U. S. Government; this machine has a six hundred gallon tank and ten horse power engine with a powerful three cylinder pump, and is able to throw a spray one hundred feet in the air; this permits all the work to be done from the ground, doing away with climbing and spurring the trees, which is injurious, and you are also sure that the tops are covered, which is very important. The cost of doi.iig the worli with this machine, compared with the old way of climbing was seventy-five dollars less. The work of trimming for the coming year has been started, the village of Centerville having been done; seventy-five loads were taken out. Tfi.e other villages will be done before spring to be ready for spraying the first of June. The trim- ming all over town will be heavier that usual be the v past few years we hae cut out as little as possible in order to save money enough for the Elm Beetle spraying. Respectfully submitted, HARRY W. 130DFISH, Tree Warden
