From this data it will be seen that the total membership of the schools has increased steadily year by year. The membership of the High School, which remained stationary up to the close of the school year, 1913-14, has more than doubled in the past five years. This inerease has been accelerated in the last two years by the change from a nine-grade system to an eight-grade system, completed in June, 1918.
In the grades the average increase each year has been more than sixty pupils. The increase this last year was sixty-three, and present indications are that the inerease this coming year will be nearly one hun- dred fifty. The total membership of the schools next September will execcd 25 00.
SCHOOL ACCOMMODATIONS
How has the town taken care of this increase in the membership of its schools? At the beginning of the school year 1909-10, the pupils in the grades occupied thirty-six schoolrooms. Four additional rooms were available for use, two at the Guild School and the two rooms at the West School. It became necessary in January, 1910, to open one of the rooms at the Guild School for an overflow class from the first and second grades. In September, 1911, congestion at the Winslow School was temporarily relieved by opening the two rooms at the West School. This congestion was largely due to the rapid growth of the old Balch School, from which school the pupils were promoted to the Winslow School. Immediately " upon the completion of the new Baleh School in November, 1913, nine of the twelve rooms in this building were occupied, two more a year later, and the twelfth room in the fall of 1915. Meanwhile, in September, 1914, it had become necessary to use as a classroom the twelfth room at the Guild School. This last September two more rooms were opened, one at the . Winslow School and one at the Balch School. These two rooms are small extra recitation rooms, never intended for regular classroom use.
Since 1915 the High School has been on a two-session basis. The build- ing has not been large enough to accommodate all the pupils at the same

146
time. When the new High School building is completed the school will be able to resume single sessions. With the pupils in the new building the present High School building will be available to take care of an overflow of pupils from the grades. In September five rooms will be needed for this purpose. One of these rooms will be made up of first grade pupils from the Guild and Shattuck school districts. Four rooms will be required for sixth and seventh grade pupils. These pupils will come from the Balch School and from overflows in these grades at the Guild, Shattuck, and Winslow Schools. The central location of the High School makes the building especially available for this purpose.
The utilization of the present High School to take care of these pupils will help to relieve what is a rather serious condition of congestion in our schools. `In twenty-two of our fifty-two schoolrooms the membership exceeds forty. This is a larger number of pupils than a teacher ought to be required to teach, if she is to be expected to do effective work.
From the statistics already presented it is evident that many years cannot elapse before it will be necessary to complete the southern wing of the new High School building. When this wing is finished nine ad- ditional schoolrooms will be provided, and it may then be possible to con- sider the time when the old Everett School will be abandoned. There can be no doubt as to the sentiment of the people of the town that this building ought to be disposed of, but present indications are that it will be in use for several years to come. Nevertheless, its abandonment ought to be kept in mind, for it is in no sense a modern school building or a credit to the community.
THE YEAR 1918
During 1918 the work of the schools has been done under many adverse conditions. The High School has had another year of organization on a two-session basis, with the attendant difficulties of late afternoon study for the first year pupils, and lack of sufficient opportunity in the afternoon for teachers to give assistance to pupils needing help.
The changes in our teaching force have been unusually numerous. Of the seventy-seven teachers in the service of the schools, January 1, 1918, twenty have left during the year. Of these twenty, eleven have resigned to accept higher salaries in other schools, and three because they could better themselves in business. A number of these changes have come at times and under circumstances when they have resulted in serious inter- ruptions in the work of the schools.
On account of the epidemic of influenza the schools were closed by vote of the School Committee on September the twenty-fourth and were not . reopened until October the twenty-cighth. This loss of nearly five weeks, coming at the beginning of the school year, has been a severc setback. The difficulties caused by this loss of time have been partly overcome by extending the morning session fifteen minutes, or until twelve o'clock.
The invaluable assistance rendered by our teachers and nurses in the Emergency Hospital at the Civic Association during this epidemic inerits the highest commendation. A number of teachers who had taken the even- ing school course in home nursing were especially well prepared for this work. The teachers and nurses who went into the Emergency Hospital faced the danger of death as truly as have our soldiers on the battlefield. Sev- cral contracted the disease in the course of the performance of their dutics and two became dangerously ill. The teachers and nurses who assisted in the Emergency Hospital were:
Mary A. Ahern George W. Allen Edith J. Atwood Mary L. Bowker Lucy H. Brooks Vera H. Brooks

Others of the teachers would have assisted had they not been prevented by illness. Still others earried on the work of the Emergeney Nursery at the Winslow School. The Winslow Sehool was opened October 2. It was supplied with food and fitted up with eots to receive children who for the time being had no one else to take care of them. The sehool was kept open until October 21. During this time twenty-six ehildren received the best of care. These ehildren were given a home for intervals of from one to twelve days, or until steh time as parents, relatives or friends eould care for them. The teachers who assisted in the Emergeney Nursery were: Blanehe A. Baeon

The pupils who have sought the opportunity to study the English language in our evening school have been fewer this year than usual. For this reason and beeause of inereased expenditures on account of war conditions it has been felt advisable to abridge considerably the work of the evening school. . During the fall elasses have been held in the English language, shorthand, typewriting, mechanieal drawing, and eivil serviee. The average attendance has been seventy-seven.
The vaeation school was in session for six weeks during the summer. The results seeured appear from the following comparative statement. The eost per pupil was greater than in the previous years because of an increase in salary received by the teachers.

The work of the sehool savings department was diseontinued in June in order to further the eampaign for the sale through the sehools of war savings and thrift stamps. The number of deposits received up to that time was 7444 and the amount of such deposits was $2,749.18.
THE WAR
The pupils of the sehools have been doing their "bit" to help in the winning of the war. They have purchased war savings and thrift stamps, eolleeted peaeh stones for carbon for gas masks, cultivated home gardens, and engaged in Junior Red Cross work. In so doing they have been

learning in the most valuable way possible the lessons of patriotismn, Americanism and good citizenship.
The sale of war savings and thrift stamps through the schools has amounted to $14,325.25. Of the 2357 pupils reported as members of the schools on December 20, three out of every four, or 1761, held war savings or thrift stamps. Three rooms had one hundred per cent participation. These rooms were: grade S, Everett School, Eliza M. Houghton, teacher; grade 7, Winslow School, Anne F. Gibbons, teacher; and grade 5, Balch School, Marian E. Lynch, teacher.
The vast amount of work that can be accomplished by live, patriotic young American boys and girls was shown by the large number of peach stones our school children collected for carbon for gas masks. The grand total was 115,833. This remarkable result was due to the splendid pa- triotic fervor of the children which led them into every conceivable place where peach stones were to be found.
During the summer the children cultivated over three hundred home vegetable gardens. These gardens varied in size from a small plot to half an acre. The value of the products raised is estimated at about $3000. The gardens were under the supervision of Mr. George M. Joy. Five boys were excused in the spring from attendance at the High School so that by working on farms they might help in the campaign for food production.
The pupils have accomplished much Junior Red Cross work. The younger children have been engaged in such activities as winding thread, putting buttons in bags and pulling oakum. The older pupils have knit stockings, wristlets, sweaters, face cloths, and helmets, and have made handkerchiefs, button bags, crutch pads, gun wipes, oakum pads, tam- pons, gauze sponges, hospital bags, domino bags, puzzles, sets of domi- noes and clothing for refugee children. Mrs. Charles Caverley, who has directed the greater part of this work, deserves much credit for her en- ergy, enthusiasm and executive ability. The boys in the manual arts classes have cut out hundreds of thread winders and have built seven tables for the naval Y. M. C. A. at Charlestown.
In February and again in October our teachers did a great deal of clerical work for the Local Draft Board in making out cards for the govern- ment. These cards were based upon the questionnaires filled out in con- nection with the draft. Our High School has been made use of as a meeting place by the Legal Advisory Board in helping men to fill out their ques- tionnaires, and several of our men teachers have assisted as members of this Board. One of our high school teachers, Mr. William F. Greeley, was called to the service in June; and one of our nurses, Miss Adele J. Fairbrother, volunteered for Red Cross work in France and sailed in the carly part of the summer.
MEANING OF DEMOCRACY
With the winning of the World War and the triumph of Democracy over Autocracy has come a larger appreciation of the importance of the work of our public schools. In a country where the suffrage is as general as with us, where "all men are created equal" so far as the ballot is con - cerned, the development of understanding broadcast throughout the nation is essential to the stability of our form of government and the progress and prosperity of our people. We must have "equality of opportunity" through the public schools if we are to realize the full meaning of De- mocracy "that all people should share as largely as possible the best life."

The year 1918 saw two serious epidemics in Norwood-measles and influenza. In the early spring, measles appeared suddenly when twelve cases broke out simultaneously in one room at the Balch School. The disease spread rapidly in the crowded districts and there were scattered cases throughout the town.
During both epidemics daily inspections of classes were carried on for somne time and any child showing suspicious symptoms was excluded, also all children from that family were kept out of school until danger of con- tagion was past. Many home visits were made to investigate conditions.

The influenza epidemic during the fall term affected many children of all grades and classes and the enforced vacation of several weeks has much delayed the work of the physical examinations.
