The real success of this work is not measured by numbers but by the development which has taken place in the minds and hearts of the students. To appreciate the actual results is to visit the classes and to catch the spirit which exists there.


This report would not be complete without an honest word of appreciation for the spirit and interest which has been shown by the principal of the evening school and by the loyal corps of teachers who have actually done the work.

Mr. L. W. Grant,

My dear Mr. Grant:


I herewith submit my first annual report as Principal of the Norwood Evening School for the year ending December 31, 1927.


This year for the first time the direction of the entire details of all evening classes, both those in Practical Arts and Amer- icanization, was centralized under one head. This has evidently worked out to better advantage from an administrative point of view.


The report on Americanization will be found elsewhere, this report being in regard to the vocational classes in the Junior High School building.


Registration was held on October 10. In all the total number of pupils has been 140, distributed as follows:


Dressmaking


22


Millinery


15


Foods 40


Mechanical Drawing


24


Bookkeeping


21


Junior High School Subjects 18


Of this number there are at present 104 on the active list, or nearly 75% of the total registration. This figure is somewhat higher than that shown in previous years.


For the first time in many years a class in mechanical drawing has been successful, due largely to the excellent work of the instructor, Clifford H. Wheeler, Supervisor of Practical Arts of the Norwood Schools. This class now numbers fifteen interested young men.


The number enrolling for cooking was so large as to necessitate two divisions, one meeting Mondays for two and one-half hours and the other on Thursdays for the same period of time. There seemed to be a decided interest among women this year in learning how to prepare foods with a corresponding falling off in interest in knowledge of making hats.


Mrs. Zillah Fleming, who has conducted the work in dressmaking for many years, was forced to give up the work on December 31st, owing to ill health, and Miss Mary Moynahan of Cambridge was engaged to carry on the work. This class has been very successful and some fine products turned out by its members.


In all, eight teachers have instructed in the evening work. One difficulty has been in securing teachers who are qualified for this work from the point of view of State requirements. In some cases


283


it was necessary to engage local instructors who had not completed State requirements.


I wish to mention here the fine cooperation received from the Bird & Son organization in interesting several of their employees in the mechanical drawing course. Some of these pupils have come to class regularly from out of town and contributed materially to the success of this class.


In concluding this report I wish to thank you and your office force for the fine assistance given me in organizing the work for the year, as well as to express my appreciation to the force of instructors for their untiring effort in this work, which ap- parently is very much worthwhile in satisfying a very vital need in our town.


J. CLIFFORD GEER,


Principal of Evening School.


Mr. L. W. Grant,


Superintendent of Schools, Norwood, Massachusetts.


My dear Mr. Grant:


I herewith submit my report as Supervisor of Practical Arts in the Norwood Public School for the year ending December 31, 1927.


The year 1927 has been a period of activity in readjustment and organization in the department. More and more boys are taking this course and availing themselves of the opportunities offered in the various shops to make worthwhile projects for the home as well as to receive a liberal education along industrial lines. A notable feature this year was the interest taken by a group of girls who entered the department of advanced mechanical drawing.


The increasing number of pupils selecting this course has made a difficult problem to solve as some of the shops are over crowded. As a result of this condition, efficiency is lacking as a great deal of instruction requires individual attention. The enrollment of pupils in the shop classes has increased nearly fifty percent in comparison to the enrollment of last year, a large percentage being in the Junior High School, as here the seventh, eighth and ninth grades receive their instruction in the four shops.


In June some changes were made in the personnel of the de- partment. Mr. Natale resigned his position as instructor in wood- work at the Junior High and Mr. Bowler, the instructor in printing, was transferred to that shop. Mr. McAuliffe was engaged to teach printing and home mechanics. Recently Mr. Wynaught was added to the department and has taken over his duties as instructor of woodwork in the sixth grades, also acting as part-time teacher to relieve the situation in the Junior High.


284


The work in the sixth grade was carried out according to the course outlined. Plans and models were used to show the boys what they were to do before they started their projects. All pro- jects were within the ability of the boys of that age, and of a practical nature. The model airplane proved a most interesting and worthwhile project.


The grade teachers undertook the instruction and did exception- ally well, considering all the work was done with a sloyd knife. Material for this work had to be cut out at the Junior High School wood shop which placed a heavy burden upon the instructor in charge. With the new year it seemed advisable to place a man in charge of this work and reorganize the course on a more ad- vanced basis of instruction. Mr. Wynaught was engaged for the work and many difficulties of the past have been overcome.


Boys of the seventh grade had twenty weeks in each of two subjects, namely, woodworking and home mechanics. The aim of instruction was to bring the boy under advanced work in shop procedure and strove for quality in work. Projects completed were essential for home use, including bread boards, knife and fork boxes, clothes dryers, lamps and book racks.


The course in home mechanics, which was a new addition to the department, proved attractive as it gave the boys an insight into the way repairs should be accomplished in the home. It was comprised of four units which were-bell wiring, wire splicing, sheet metal work and glazing. Many cases involved other work as articles from home were brought in for repair.


Under the new curriculum the eighth grade was given the "Try- Out" course in printing and mechanical drawing. This plan proved successful as the boy's fitness to continue with the work could be determined. In the ten weeks spent in elementary printing, the boys were taught composition, stone work, make ready and cutting of stock.


Mechanical drawing was given in textbook form, which covered the principles, processes, problems and methods for beginners in elementary drafting. During the ten weeks of "Try-Out" in this subject a good deal of the work was covered.


In the ninth grade the practical arts class was formed and was given four periods of shop work in either of the three shops, con- sisting of printing, mechanical drawing, and woodwork. The advanced class in printing did all of the school jobs, which were numerous, for about 90,000 impressions were made. Other jobs were set and printed for individual needs and again the Junior High School paper "The Argue-a-lot" was put out. Cooperation in this department with the other school departments was evident. Schedules and permit blanks were printed for Mr. Murray, tickets for class socials, servers blanks for the Household Arts Depart-


285


ment and special work for the Principals and Superintendent.


Ninth grade classes in woodwork are exceptionally large and overcrowding of the shops is detrimental to the value of the shop and to the boys. The shop is arranged and equipped to handle twenty-four boys, but the classes have been up to thirty and over. The instructor cannot give the necessary attention to each boy's individual needs. The shop needs a good wooden floor, as the cement floor is harmful to the boys' feet and many tools are rendered useless by falling to this hard surface. A good iron sink is also needed with hot and cold water.


There is no regular mechanical drawing teacher in the ninth grade. It has been taught by one of the grade teachers. This of course used time that she should have devoted to her specific work.


Advanced mechanical drawing in the High School correlated a great deal of its work with the general shop. In this way a great deal of enthusiasm and interest was had among the boys in both shops.


Drafting has been entirely individual, as all the classes worked together whether they were first, second or third year. A desirable change from this situation would be to have each class taught separately. In this respect more theoretical instruction could be given, and more of the subject covered. Architectural drawing was introduced and several plans for garages and houses were drawn.


For the first time girls have entered into the work, found it interesting and have been very successful. It is hoped that more will continue with the subject in the coming year.


Boys entering the general shop for their first year's work were formed into four distinct groups for each of the four activities by the instructor. A term of ten weeks was spent in each unit or activity and then the groups changed, so that every boy passed throught each unit, unless the instructor desired to divert from this plan to meet some individual case. To boys who completed the first year of work successfully, the opportunity was given to elect any two of the four activities and continue this work for two terms of twenty weeks.


Practical and useful articles for use in the home and school were constructed, such as accounting tables, costumers, telephone tables, folding screens and ship models.


In wood finishing the amount and grade of work has been greatly handicapped by lack of space and suitable conditions.


Sheet-metal work brought the boys into contact with the appli- cation and study of principles. Projects constructed were window boxes, dust pans, cooky cutters, wastebaskets, book ends, and tool boxes.


In machine shop practice both bench and machine work was given. Bench work consisted of lay-out work, filing, hacksawing


-


286


and reaming. Machine work gave the boy his chance to operate a machine and turn out any small projects which he might wish to do. Projects completed were screw drivers, nail sets, center punches, plumb bobs and small hammers.


The electrical unit dealt with the theory and practice of electrical circuits, principles of house wiring and repair of electrical appli- ances from the boy's home.


I am very glad of this opportunity to express to you my sincere appreciation for all the assistance given to me and to the principals for their hearty cooperation with the department.


Respectfully submitted,


CLIFFORD H. WHEELER, Supervisor of Practical Arts.
