ANNUAL REPORTS.
REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MANUAL TRAINING
To E. L. Willard, Superintendent of Schools:
Dear Sir :- On Feb. 27, 1911, at the rooms in Prince Place, was held the first session of the Manual Training school of our city.
The boys, with few exceptions, came eager and anxious to begin the work. We began with the boys of the 6th, 7th and 8th grades, giving them instruc- tion in the names and uses of tools.
In September, the beginning of the new school year, grade 9 was admitted and grade 6 dropped.
Grades 8 and 9 are given a whole session, and considering the few weeks in which time has been given to this work, creditable progress has been made.
The boys in all the grades are required to make a working drawing of the article to be made, as one of the first steps, and while all seem to enjoy using the fine set of tools furnished them by the city, they also show great pleasure at being able to make their own drawings from which to work.
Besides the drawing and wood-working, instruction has been given in cane- seating, furniture repairing, glazing, glueing, staining, shellacing and wax fin- ishing, and boys of the 9th grades, accompanied by instructor, have visited one of our large wood-working mills for observation.
Ten boys have brought chairs from home to re-seat, and after completing these, have done the same work for some of the schools.
In furniture repairing the boys have been shown how to do such parts as they are able to do; the more difficult parts being done by the instructor while the pupils observed. Thus some furniture has been repaired, both for the city and several homes, and the boys have been placed in a position to earn a little for themselves, Mr. Fowle, of Wolfe Tavern, having furnished several chairs to be reseated by the boys who have learned to do the work at the school.
We wish to acknowledge gifts that have been made to the school, and to extend hearty thanks to the donors for their generosity.
At the opening of the school, Mr. Ralph Nelson gave and put in place a drinking fountain, which is greatly appreciated.
Mr. Frank E. Davis gave and hung the main shaft and hangers, and will furnish pulleys for machines which we hope may be added soon to our outfit, as they are much needed.
Gov. Foss has very kindly given a portable forge, which will be of much service.
In conclusion I wish very heartily to thank the school committee, superin- tendent and teachers for their kindness and hearty co-operation in this, our first, year of manual training in Newburyport.
Respectfully submitted,
W. F. WOODBURY, Principal.

SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
REPORT OF THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE OF THE WOMAN'S CLUB
To Members of the School Board, of City of Newburyport, Mass:
Gentlemen :- The committee from the Woman's Club, in the interest of the classes in domestic science, connected with the public schools, have held a num- ber of meetings; and members of the committee have visited the class in our city, also classes in other cities.
The committee feel pleased with the manner in which the work is planned and executed by the teachers, Miss Chase and Miss Jones, here in our com- munity.
During this last year we have had gas plates put on the tables where the pupils work, when in the cooking classes. These plates simplify matters very much in conducting a class. Previously twenty-five girls would be gathered around the range, and it was impossible for all to see the progress of the work and manner in which the dish was being cooked.
The twenty-five dollars appropriated by the school board, to be expended by our committee, has covered the cost of gas plates, piping, aluminum sheets placed under plates to protect tables, and a table cloth. This last article to be used in lessons on table setting and table serving.
The committee would suggest to the school board, that the pupils in the cooking classes be furnished with printed receipts, instead of having pupils copy them. This consumes valuable time in each lesson.
In visiting classes in other localities, we find earh pupil furnished with a printed slip, containing receipts for the day's lesson. At the close of each les- son these slips are pasted in a blank book. At the close of the term the pupils have these books. I know these books have served good purpose to some of the pupils, after some years when they have homes of their own.
The committee is very much interested in the room for domestic science in the new school building, and hope to see it well equipped, and would be glad to assist in any possible way.
This report is respectfully submitted,
ELIZABETH LITTLE ILSLEY, Chairman of Committee.

ANNUAL REPORTS.
REPORT OF THE TRUANT OFFICER
Gentlemen of the School Committee:
I present my annual report for the year ending June 30, 1911: 1281
Number of schools visited 1044
Number of absences reported by teachers
Number of parents or guardians notified 1052
Number of cases of truancy 78
Number of children returned from streets
26
Number of factories visited
56
Number of certificates issued
40
Number of children employed contrary to law
1
Number of children brought into court 3
Number of cases of tardiness investigated 22
Each year the work of the truant officer is added to. This year the minors certificate law went into effect, and we examined nearly 800 minors in the fac- tories and stores. I would recommend the introduction of the telephone in four of the schools, the Albert Currier, Jackman, Kelley and Bromfield. We have to depend on the kindness of nearby neighbors for the use of the telephone. Recently we adopted a new form of truant officer's report. The committee had forms from other cities to look over. They would have found, if they had asked, that the schools in other cities are connected with telephones, and each principal sends into the office each day the pupils they wish looked up. A lot of time would be saved as the officer could go direct to their homes. When we have contagious diseases to deal with we need the telephone at once. Were it not for the kindness of people and Mr. Dixon many children would have to absent themselves from school more than they do, for the lack of proper clothing. I wish to thank the committee and the school children for their many kind acts to me during my illness. During May and June Mr. Hathaway acted as truant officer.
Respectfully submitted, JOSHUA L. CHASE,
Truant Officer.
