In my first report I wrote about the advisability of having an art outline for Hatfield. While it is impossible for me to write an individual one for each town, I am working on a series of lesson and project sheets which are to be reproduced by hectograph and used in all schools in which I teach. If these are filed in a loose leaf note- book or special portfolio, each school will have, after a year or two, a complete outline of art projects, processes and techniques suitable for use at grade school levels. It is my hope to eventually expand this so that each teach- er may have such an outline.


118


A year ago I also recommended the use of easels in the Hatfield Schools and through the help of Mr. Jenness these were made by him and a few of the older boys. I want to extend my thanks to Mr. Jenness and the boys for seeing the project through.


Concerning the future of art in the schools of Hatfield I am very optimistic. Interest on the part of the children remains at a high level and all teachers have been helpful and cooperative. I should like to thank you, Mr. Goodwin, also Mr. Jenness and all Hatfield teachers for their part in encouraging and promoting the school art program.


Respectfully yours, RICHARD E. GABEL,


Supervisor of Art.

Supervisor of Music


To Mr. Goodwin and Members of the School Committee :


Children enter school with greatly varying musical experiences and abilities; some can sing sweetly and others can scarcely sing at all; some respond easily to rhythmic sway and others are apparently unmoved. Practically all, however, enjoy listening to music.


It is our aim to lead the child to wish to sing through the medium of listening.


We endeavor to give every child the enjoyable ex- perience of singing songs of musical worth with pleasing tone quality, good vocal habits such as intelligent breath- ing and phrasing, and with musical understanding.


Singing simple one part songs from notation, in unison and individually is begun in the second and third grades.


We seek to develop more skill in singing from nota- tion-two, three and four part harmony.


There is much talent, ambition, and co-operation among our pupils and we are striving constantly to better our music.


The usual program in the grade schools were pre- pared and presented during the last year, and we will ask those parents and friends who are interested in our children and could be present at these programs to ap- preciate what we have accomplished.


120


The course in music at Smith Academy has been made elective instead of conpulsory. We have the Girls Glee Club of 30 members and the Boys Glee Club of 19 mem- bers, combining the two for the choir. This arrangement seems to be working out satisfactorily. Various pro- grams were prepared and presented and we hope to de- velop some very worth-while material.


My most heart-felt appreciation to all of the school officials and teachers who have, by their interest and co- operation, helped to attain the results of the past year.


Respectfully submitted, MAUDE E. BOYLE,


Supervisor of Music.

To the Superintendent and Members of the School Com- mittee :


The Value of Health Supervision and Health Education


While it would be futile to estimate the full value of health supervision and health education of a school popu- lation, the following definite routine has been found to be a basis for normal health foundation.


First. It has aided the health authorities in the control of cummunicable diseases by detection and exclu- sion of sick and exposed children from contact with the regular student group.


Second. The detailed and thorough physical exami- nation given by the school physician, physical defects are noted and reported to parents such as diseased tonsils and adenoids, cardiac defects, incorrect posture, malnutrition, etc.


Third. The detection of poor vision, defective hear- ing, that handicap the progress of the pupil in the school work. Dental defects, emotional and mental problems.


In the minds of many there is some doubt as to the ability of anyone to teach another to be healthy. Cer- tainly, if a student is not interested and is indifferent or non-cooperative the outlook is not hopeful, but to find the reason for such an attitude is part of health supervi- sion.


122


Fourth. Another factor that may be classed as in- tellectual forms of health education is recreation includ- ing music, drama, nature study and various hobbies that furnish activity which is not only diverting but often in- tellectually stimulating and educational. The fact that health of young people must be based on a mental, emo- tional, physical foundation, the study of all factors should be included in the Health Education Program. The schools of today are aware of the need of such a program and schedules are arranged to make the health factors available to the students.


The yearly examination of the pupils and the co- operation of the parents all tend to keep the students in good health. The Dental Clinic will be held soon and all pupils that have not been cared for by their own dentist may attend, and pre-school children accompanied by their parent may attend.


The X-Ray Clinic for high school students, as part of their physical examination and elementary pupils by request of their private physician will be held as soon as the Westfield operator can arrange the date.


The Immunization Clinic will be presented as early as possible, the exact date will be given to the parents. The Booster Innoculation will be given to all pupils that have been immunized before 1946. The parents are re- quested to sign the slips sent from the school and to return them to the school or in case of pre-school children, the slips may be signed at the Clinic.


Four students are under special supervision and ac- tivities somewhat limited but all are improving. Five pupils spent four weeks at the Health Camp Hodgkins, and enjoyed their vacation very much and improved in physical health as well as in sociability.

HENRY F. LONG COMMISSIONER


The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Corporations and Taxation Division of Arrounta State House, Boston


- FRANCIS X. LANG DIRECTOR OF ACCOUNTS


February 9, 1949.


To the Board of Selectmen Mr. Henry M. Kugler, Chairman Hatfield, Massachusetts


Gentlemen :


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Hatfield for the year ending December 31, 1948, made in accordance with the pro- visions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.


Very truly yours, FRANCIS X. LANG, Director of Accounts.


125


Mr. Francis X. Lang Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston


Sir :


As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Hatfield for the year ending December 31, 1948, and submit the following re- port thereon :


The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments collecting or disbursing money for the town or sending out bills for collection, were ex- amined, checked, and verified.


The surety bonds of the town clerk, town treasurer, tax collector, and water collector were examined and found to be in proper form.


The receipts for licenses issued by the board of sel- ectmen were checked with the record of licenses granted, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked. The ledger accounts were ana- lyzed, the recorded receipts and payments were checked, and the appropriation accounts were checked with the appropriations voted by the town as listed from the town clerk's record of town meetings. The ledger record of departmental accounts receivable was checked with the records of the departments committing the charges and with the treasurer's books. A balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the finan- cial condition of the town on December 31, 1948.


126


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined. The recorded receipts were checked with the records of the departments making payments to the treasurer and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury. The expenditures were compared with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds, and the cash balance on January 22, 1949 was proved by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement received from the bank and by actual count of the cash in the office.


The securities, including savings bank books, repre- senting the investment of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed, the income being proved and the payments to the town being verified.


The books and accounts of the tax collector were ex- amined and checked. The tax accounts outstanding at the time of the previous examination and the subsequent commitment lists were audited and proved with the war- rants given by the board of assessors for their collection. The recorded collections and abatements were checked, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the out- standing accounts were listed and proved with the acc- ountant's ledger.


The financial transactions of the town clerk were examined. The receipts for dog and sporting licenses were checked with the record of licenses issued and the payments to the Division of Fisheries and Game and the town treasurer were verified. The receipts for gasoline storage permit renewals were checked with the applica- tions on file and the payments to the treasurer were veri- fied.


127


The recorded receipts from town hall rents were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The receipts of the sealer of weights and measures were checked with the record of work done, the pay- ments to the treasurer being verified.


The records of accounts receivable of the health, highway, public welfare, school, and cemetery depart- ments were examined. The charges were listed and com- pared with the commitments reported to the accountant. The recorded collections were compared with the pay- ments to the treasurer, the abatements were checked, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the accountant's ledger.


The recorded receipts of the school department from the school lunch project were checked and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The books and accounts of the water department were examined and checked. The charges for the sale of water and water services were added and compared with the accountant's record of commitments. The recorded collections and abatements were checked, and the out- standing accounts were listed and proved with the acc- ountant's ledger.


Verification of the outstanding tax, excise, and water accounts was obtained by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The balance sheet appended to this report shows taxes outstanding from the levy of 1945, in which con- nection it is urged that immediate action be taken to col- lect these taxes.


128


In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash, summaries of the tax, excise, depart- mental, and water accounts, together with tables showing the trust and investment fund transactions.


For the cooperation received from all town officials during the progress of this audit I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted, HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts.
