It generally happens that the poorest scholars are the ones who are habitually absent or tardy, and as they would have all they could do to keep up with their classes if they were present every day, it follows that they fall behind their classes and are compelled to go back into the next lower grade or remain a second year in the same grade, either of which is unsatisfactory to both parents and teachers.
Many parents entertain the idea that they can keep a child out of school for any reason, in fact, for no reason, as long as they choose, and it is for the benefit of this class of parents that we reprint some of the school laws revised in 1894, which although printed in our last report, do not seem to be generally understood.
To the Superintendent of Schools :
DEAR SIR :- During the year fifty-three cases of ab- sentees have been brought to my notice which have been duly attended to. Twenty-four of these absences have been

MUSIC AND DRAWING.
The work in music and drawing has progressed during the year very satisfactorily under the direction of Mr. Drake and Mr. Carter, each of whom gives a short report of this work.
Mr. Drake gave an exhibition in the town hall last year of some of the work the High School pupils were capable of doing, which was fully attended by the parents and friends of the pupils, and was highly successful and creditable to both teacher and pupils, and it is possible some of the work of the lower grades may be shown up this year. It is our purpose to give an exhibition in the early summer, showing something of the work in drawing, nature study, language work, etc.

SCHOOL REPORT. J77
To the Superintendent of Schools :
DEAR SIR : - The report of the Music for the past year is necessarily brief. The same text books have been used and the same plans of work followed. The results have been most favorable and successful, wherever the daily work has been attended to faithfully, and in nearly every school such good results are shown.
A most admirable plan for keeping up an interest and culti- vating a high standard of music would be to have yearly festivals of music for the school children. In the case of the High School last year the rendering of a cantata in the Town Hall was the means of awakening an interest there which I have not seen before or since. The same opportunity given the lower grade scholars would be of inestimable value, and it is hoped we can arrange for one this year. The work in the schools would then speak for itself.
Respectfully submitted,
GRANT DRAKE.
Mr. B. F. Robinson, Supt. of Schools, Melrose, Mass.
DEAR SIR :- In reply to your request for a report of the work in Drawing in the public schools, I submit the follow- ing:
The foundation work of the primary grades is form study from the object. The purpose of this form study is to build up in the child's mind clear and correct conceptions of form as a basis for thinking and doing. In form study the pupil exercises both touch and sight in his observations. The forms studied by the child are presented to him in such a manner that he may grasp the idea of the form. For in- stance, the child is given the sphere to discover for himself what can be done with it. He handles it, finds it round and
12
178
SCHOOL REPORT.
smooth; he tosses it, rolls it, and finds that it is almost im- possible to make it stand still. Next, he moulds it from clay, trying to have it as round and smooth as the original. From this work we have some very good results and some very poor ones. His next study is the cube, which he exam- ines in the same way, and then compares and contrasts it with the sphere. In this way each model is studied in turn, very carefully. Those used during the first year are sphere, cube, cylinder, hemisphere, square prism and right angle tri- angle prism.
After studying the form as a whole, it is taken up in parts -its surface, edges, corners and faces. The different faces are drawn by the child, and cut from paper in connection with the study of the parts as well as with the study of cer- tain facts about the whole (views) and also in connection with the study of decorative arrangement.
The next two years additional forms are studied, includ- ing the ellipsoid, the ovoid, the equilateral triangle prism, cone, square pyramid, vase form, and their application.
The work of the grammar grades is laid upon the future development of the child through his conscious effort in utilizing these forms as a means for wide observation in nature and in art, also as a thought basis for the exercise of . his imagination.
This plan when followed as it should be, that is, giving the proper time to drawing as compared with other studies, will develop attention and observation, leading to a wider range of ideas and a better application of beauty in nature and in art. It teaches a pupil to think for himself, with a steady growth of creative imagination along the line of in- dustry and art. It will increase the power of expressing objects as they appear, as well as to express on paper what he has in his mind.
In order to carry out the educational purposes and to
-
179
SCHOOL REPORT.
give the instruction the most direct bearing on practical life, the drawing in the grammar grades should be classified into three divisions, construction, the study of the facts of form, in their relation to each other as observed in forms and objects. In drawing these facts they should be so arranged as to convey definite ideas of the form, size and structure of the object in its reality and the construction of the object. from the drawing; second, representation, which includes the study of the appearance of forms in various objects, viewed under various conditions, and in various relations; third, decoration, including the study of beauty in geomet- ric forms, in historic ornament and in natural forms ex- pressed in paper cutting and drawing, and the adaptation of geometric, historic and natural forms in decorative designs.
In nature study the sketches should be kept simple, try- ing to bring out the growth movement in plants and later ideas of adaptation and the specific forms through which the life manifests itself. In the study of minerals, birds, insects and animals, the idea of form should be studied first as wholes i. e. general shape; secondly, principal subdivisions and parts; lastly, details to distinguish one species from another.
The value of all this instruction is to give the pupil a good foundation for independent drawing after he has finished his public school work.
The aim isn't to secure good results and make pretty pictures only, but certain principles are taught for models and objects in certain positions, that they appear in certain ways, and that similar objects under the same condition will be subject to the same law. A pupil who understands those principles-which does not mean merely being able to repeat them-and who has been well taught through all the eight grades, should be able not only to represent objects which
180
SCHOOL REPORT.
are before him, but to image clearly in his mind and draw fairly well objects not in vision. The pupil who has seen with his mind as well as with his eyes through all these years should find no difficulty in representing any object, whether spherical, elliptical or rectangular. And until a pupil has this ability, drawing, as a language, can never be made practical.
The course in drawing has been considerably changed this year, advancing the work of the lower grades. I find that our third primary is ready for what our fourth has done in years past. The drawing is done almost as well, but the manual work hasn't quite the finish the fourth can give it, but will have in time. There is some change made in all the grades where it is possible to do so. The work is being done very satisfactorily, the teachers are interested and work with enthusiasm, which is sure to make it a success.
In the High School, the first and second classes are paint- ing in monochrome, instead of charcoal, and are doing very well, hoping in the spring to take up the colors. Time is very short in the High School, especially for the painting class, which hardly get started before it is time to stop. If it could he arranged to give them two periods at a time, once in two weeks, it would be better than so short a period once a week
Another exhibition will be given in drawing in the Town Hall some time in June. It will include work from all the grades and from the High School. Each pupil will be rep- resented by one or more of the drawings he has made during the year. We trust that all parents and friends of the scholars will visit this exhibition, thus showing by their presence their interest in this work.

SCHOOL REPORT.
There should be established in town, and we believe it should be done this year, two or three public kindergartens, so located as to accommodate the different sections of the town. There should also be established a workshop or room where the boys from the higher grammar grades and the lower high school grades could have the benefit of manual training work under the direction of a competent instructor. While the boys are being instructed in manual training the girls and the boys in the lower grades could be profitably instructed in sewing.
These departments are not experimental but have already been introduced into the school courses of many towns and cities and we hope to see it done here very soon, and trust public sentiment will demand them and support the com- mittee in asking for a sufficient appropriation to start the work. The benefits to be derived from their introduction have been pointed out in discussions of these topics in former reports.
IN CONCLUSION.
There are many questions of school management, largely theoretical that might be discussed in our annual reports, but it has seemed best to confine this report to practical school management and leave theoretical questions to be discussed in other ways.
My relations to teachers, citizens and committee have been in the main very pleasant and I wish to thank one and all for their co-operation and support, and I trust all may work together for the single purpose of giving the children of this town the best possible school advantages.

As the silvery, sparkling dew-drops Quickly fade at morn's first beam,
Have our happy school-days vanished Like a balmy summer's dream.
But with sadness we remember
That those golden days have fled, And we greet you, friends and schoolmates, Ere the last good-bys are said.
Life's broad ocean rolls before us, With its ceaseless, surging tide,
Out upon its boundless bosom Soon shall we be scattered wide.
O, may He, who ever knoweth If a sparrow doth but fall,
Guide and keep us through the journey, Be the Pilot for us all.
III. Many Gems in memory's casket,
Thoughts of schoolmates dear shall stay,
As with noble purpose, upward
We are toiling day by day. And when life shall reach its evening,
May we find the morning land,
Then in heaven be reunited, Ever round God's throne to stand.

SCHOOL LAWS.
Experience teaches us that it takes a long time for people to learn those things which are distasteful to them, and we therefore feel compelled to insert portions of the school laws as they were revised at the session of the legislature in 1894, so many parents persist in keeping their children out of school without good reason and in violation of the law.
EXTRACTS FROM THE PUBLIC STATUTES OF THE COMMONWEALTH.
CHAPTER 498.
AN ACT RELATIVE TO THE ATTENDANCE OF CHILDREN IN THE SCHOOLS.
Be it enacted, etc., as follows :
SECTION I. Every person having under his control a child between the ages of eight and fourteen years, and in every city or town where opportunity is furnished, in connection with the regular work of the public schools, for gratuitous instruction in the use of tools or in manual training, or for industrial education in any form, a child between the ages of eight and fifteen years, shall annually cause such child to attend some public day school in the city or town in which he resides, and such attendance shall continue for at least thirty weeks of the school year, if the schools are kept open for that length of time, with an allowance of two weeks' time for absences not excused by the superintendent of schools or the school committee. Such period of attendance shall begin
192
SCHOOL REPORT.
within the first month of the fall term of school, and for each five days' absence of any such child thereafter, in ex- cess of the above allowance, before the completion of the required annual attendance of thirty weeks, the person hav- ing such child under his control shall, upon the complaint of the school committee or any truant officer, forfeit to the use of the public schools of such city or town a sum not exceeding twenty dollars, but if such child has attended for a like period of time a private day school approved by the school committee of such city or town, or if such child has been otherwise instructed for a like period of time in the branches of learning required by law to be taught in the public schools, or has already acquired the branches of learning required by law to be taught in the public schools, or if his physical or mental condition is such as to render such attendance inexpedient or impracticable, such penal- ties shall not be incurred.
SEC. 2. For the purposes of the preceding section, school committees shall approve a private school only when the teaching in all the studies required by law is in the English language, and when they are satisfied that such teaching equals in thoroughness and efficiency the teaching in the public schools in the same locality, and that equal progress is made by the pupils therein, in the studies required by law, with that made during the same time in the public schools; but they shall not refuse to approve a private school on account of the religious teaching therein.
SEC. 3 The truant officers and the school committee of the several cities and towns shall vigilantly inquire into all cases of neglect of the duty prescribed in section one, and ascertain the reasons, if any, therefor; and such truant officers or any of them, shall, when so directed by the school committee, prosecute in the name of the city or town any person liable to the penalty provided for in said section.
193
SCHOOL REPORT.
Police, district and municipal courts, trial justices and judges of the probate court, shall have jurisdiction within their respective counties of the offences described in section one.
SEC. 4. All children within the Commonwealth may attend the public schools in the place in which they have their legal residence, subject to the regulations prescribed by law.
SEC. 5. The school committee shall determine the num- ber and qualifications of the scholars to be admitted to the High school.
SEc. 9. The school committee shall not allow a child who has not been duly vaccinated to be admitted to or connected with the public schools.
SEC. 10. The school committee shall not allow any pupil to attend the public schools while any member of the household to which such pupil belongs is sick of small-pox, diphtheria, or scarlet fever, or during a period of two weeks after the death, recovery or removal of such sick person; and any pupil coming from such household shall be required to present to the teacher of the school the pupil desires to attend, a certificate from the attending physician, or board of health, of the facts necessary to entitle him to admission in accordance with the above regulation.
SEC. 20. The school committee of each town shall ap- point and fix the compensation of two or more suitable per- sons, to be designated truant officers, who shall, under the direction of said committee, inquire into all cases arising under such by-laws, and shall alone be authorized, in case of violation thereof, to make complaint and carry into execu- tion the judgment thereon; and who may serve all legal processes issued by the courts in pursuance of such by-laws, or of sections fifteen to twenty-four inclusive of this act, but who shall not be entitled to receive any fees for such service.
