The millstones were most artistically draped by Mr. and Mrs. Lizzotte. Each and every one had done their bit to add to the attractiveness of our Town. Even the weather man had sent his best sample.
Your committee thanks the townspeople for giving them such loyal support and such a large number appearing in cos- tumes of so long ago, all adding much to the affair.

SCHOOL COMMITTEE REPORT
In making a report for the last fiscal year, your Com- mittee would say that our appropriation was on a basis of $4,000.00 less than we had asked for from the Finance Com- mittee, and we have lived within this appropriation by cutting the teachers' salaries 10% on September 1st, and the school janitors, 5%. We have also been able to purchase fuel at a very low figure, and have only purchased books and supplies that were absolutely needed. Repairs and replacements were cut to a minimum. This enabled us, as we say, to "balance our budget."
We might add at this time that the Superintendent, Princi- pal of the High School, teachers and janitors, have cheerfully accepted their cut in pay, and have also carried heavier burdens without complaint.
We know that the cities and towns of the state are clamor- ing for smaller school expenditures. The budget which we have prepared this year recognizes the necessity of bringing down our costs to a minimum. Our request made to the Finance Committee is on this basis.
The school buildings of Wayland, as you know, are being used to their maximum capacity. We would call your attention to the fact that for the last school year, we have an increase of almost 12% in the number of children registered in the ele- mentary schools, and some relief is absolutely necessary.
The Building Committee, appointed by the Town at its last meeting, have given very careful consideration to this subject, and we trust that when their report and recommendations are presented to the Town at its annual meeting, that no hasty decision will be made.
The reports of other school officers follow, and trust you will give them careful consideration.

REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the Wayland School Committee :
It is an esteemed honor to present my twenty-third report. It is the thirty-sixth in the series of reports from this office.
The statistics compiled for the Annual State Returns show a high school enrollment of 123, the same as last year. There are 47 more children enrolled in the elementary schools than last year, an increase of nearly 12%. A study of these statistics indicates that another year the High School enrollment will be about 140. These comparisons are made to indicate to you that the providing of space in our rooms to care for our boys and girls is each year becoming more and more complicated, already very near the point that not another student can be accommodated.
It is a pleasure to report to you that our teachers are carrying a heavier burden of work than heretofore cheerfully and vigorously with reduced compensation besides giving material aid to children in a quiet way.
The number of boys in the high school who would be working if work were available for them is much increased. These young men are not especially interested in much of the work we have to offer them. . Our young ladies are provided with courses in household arts. Our boys have no such choice. They must either take commercial or college preparatory sub- jects of a combination of same.
As it seems to us that some provision should be made for these young men we are recommending that a reasonable course of employment be given them in physical education and that credit toward graduation be granted for same. We should pro- vide for a time requirement and a standard of attainment com- parable to requirements for academic subjects. We believe this plan as briefly outlined to be a creditable experiment in educa- tion.
154
The very best work that the school offers some of our boys is given them on the athletic field. It is not play but very inten- sive work for a considerable period of time. There is no credit given. The hope of victory is high. The thrill of victory often carried off by opponents. Added to the depression of defeat is the chagrin engendered by thoughtless criticisms of those who would have them win. I hope that we may add the zest of winning diploma credits to this very worthy line of education offered our high school boys.
We have reason to be highly pleased with the records of our graduates in college and normal school. It is a very great personal joy to me to note the successes of our graduates.
Miss Ena Tillson has again been getting her practice work in our schools; this year working with the high school girls.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANK H. BENEDICT, Superintendent of Schools.

REPORT OF THE HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
Supt. Frank H. Benedict,
Cochituate, Mass.
Dear Mr. Benedict :
I herewith submit to you my fifteenth annual report as Principal of the Wayland High School.
The maximum enrollment of the school to date is 123 students. Of these 60 are boys and 63 are girls.
The present enrollment is 113 students. Of these 55 are boys and 58 are girls.
The following tabulation shows the present enrollment by classes :

You will note that there are eight of last year's graduating class back in school for additional work. These students have not been able to find work and prefer to attend school to being on the street. In normal times it is a rare thing that students come back for extra work. Many schools have the students who are planning to enter college return for extra work. At Wayland these students do the extra work after school hours with the teachers and are able to go to college at the end of four years of work. I cannot say how much longer the school will be able to continue this policy.
The organization of the school is about the same as it has been for several years. In addition to the work of last year
156
Miss Tillson is giving work in Physical Education to the girls and Miss Blackmer is making it possible for students to receive special work in subjects that they did not do in regular class work. Miss Blackmer is doing practice work in the high school and the grades.
The point that I wish to bring especially to your attention is the need for more rooms in which to do the work of the school. I have called your attention to this for a number of years but no new rooms have been provided. I am using rooms that were never intended for classes.
At present there are a few extra roll seats but in another year or so, I can see that I cannot assign all the students to roll seats. Something should be done at once to provide more rooms for the high school.
For some years the classes in Chemistry and Physics have gotten the laboratory work in these subjects done as best they could in space intended for six students. This year the Chemistry class has 27 students in it. The larger part of this class is not doing individual laboratory work. The few students who have some prospect of going to college are doing laboratory work in order to qualify for college in a laboratory science. It looks as though this sort of thing will have to continue until better space is provided for the work.
A similar situation holds in Typewriting. There are 13 typewriters and no more can be used in the present typewriting room. This year there are more students asking for the work than can be seated in the class. If this condition holds next year, the thing to do is to drop from the class those students whose record indicates that they have little prospect of doing the work.
Sincerely yours, DAVID J. ALLEN.
Wayland, Mass., January 2, 1933.

REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
January 16, 1933.
Mr. Frank H. Benedict,
Supt. of Wayland Schools, Cochituate, Mass.
Dear Mr. Benedict :
I herewith have the honor of submitting my report as Physician of Wayland Schools for the fiscal year of 1932.
Each student was carefully examined and the defects if any were noted and recorded. There seemed to be a smaller percentage of tonsil and adenoid cases than in previous years.
Unless the dental clinic can be continued the teeth are soon going to show the need of much dental work. Skin infections like scabies and impetigo have been quite numerous. These two diseases require the faithful co-operation of parents and students in order to eradicate the same.
The Board of Health, acting with the School Department, arranged for a Toxin-antitoxin clinic. All students wishing to be immunized received the regulation dosage. Those who received this treatment were duly Schicked in about six months.
I wish to thank you, the school nurse, the teachers and students for their co-operation in this work.
Respectfully submitted, ERNEST E. SPARKS.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Frank H. Benedict, Supt. of Wayland Schools, Cochituate, Mass.
Dear Sir:
I hereby submit my twelfth annual report for the year ending December 31, 1932.
As in former years, I have visited both school buildings daily. Sight and Hearing Tests were given. Children were weighed and measured every three months. The school physician was assisted in making the annual physical examina- tion of pupils, and, as heretofore, notices of defects were sent to parents.
Several clinics were held during the year. In January the physicians from the Worcester State Hospital were assisted in examining our three year retarded group of children. In June Dr. Sparks was assisted in giving the toxin-antitoxin treatments to pupils and to a small group of pre-school children. These same children were given the Schick Test in December.
The presence of some contagion and infection in the schools since September has necessitated close supervision. A number of cases were referred to the school physician.
In June I visited the homes of children who were to enter school in the fall. It was urged that these children be taken to their family physicians in order that any defects might be corrected before September.
During the summer months, a large group of school chil- dren needing tonsil and adenoid operations were cared for at the Framingham Hospital. This clinic was sponsored by the District Nursing Association.
Considerable welfare work has been done among the school children.
