REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
To the Citizens of the Town of Wayland : -
We have the honor to report that the schools are in good condition, and that the teachers are doing their work in an able and conscientious manner.
A course of study has been adopted in the High School, and it is intended to introduce a definite course in the Graded Schools. We think that the introduction of such a course will improve their standing and efficiency.
The last school year opened with but two changes in the force of teachers. Miss Mary A. Mulliken succeeded Miss Celina H. Lewis as teacher of the eighth and ninth grades at Wayland Centre, and Miss Agnes E. Boland succeeded Miss Ellen H. Bartlett as Supervisor of Music in the schools. Later in the year, we unfortunately lost the services of two teachers. Miss Damon resigned on account of sickness in her home, and Miss Cook resigned to accept a more lucrative position elsewhere.
The special teachers in stenography, typewriting, draw- ing and music have contributed their full share towards the efficiency of these branches of study.
We are pleased to notice the interest taken in school athletics, as we recognize the necessity of physical as well as intellectual development. We wish to thank Mr. Van
3
Town of Wayland.
Namen and the other townsmen who have so liberally helped the school teams.
We wish to express our appreciation of the assistance of Mr. Francis Shaw in making the repairs on the building in Wayland Centre, and of his continued interest in our schools. We wish also to thank Miss L. Anna Dudley for her generous gift of pictures.
We take this occasion to thank Mr. Joseph T. Corlew for his zealous and untiring assistance in superintending the schools, and in promoting their interests and welfare.
We wish to lay emphasis on the fact that the co-opera- tion of the parents with the teachers, superintendent and committee is necessary in order to maintain a high standard in our schools.
We especially desire to call to your attention the condi- tion of the schoolhouse in Cochituate Village, and we earnestly recommend the immediate erection of a new building.
A more detailed statement in regard to the schools will be found in Mr. Corlew's report.

Report of Superintendent of Schools.
REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS.
TO THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE OF WAYLAND :
GENTLEMEN : - I have the honor to present my first annual report.
HIGH SCHOOL.
The High School began the Fall Term with the largest number in its history, viz. : seventy-four. One has entered since, making the total enrollment seventy-five. The attendance, although pretty good, is not what it ought to be. The teachers should not be held responsible for the progress of pupils who are irregular in attendance. At the beginning of the Spring Term, 1904, two teachers were elected to take the places made vacant by the resig- nations of Miss Franklin and Miss Keith. Miss Bertha G. Perkins, who has had charge of the English Department since that time, has done thorough and effective work, and there exists between teacher and pupils the most cordial relations. Miss Clara H. Williams, in the Science Department, has done thorough and conscientious work. Her motive has been not only to broaden the pupils' view, but also to have them work out for themselves the problems presented and draw their own conclusions. This department is, by the addition of much needed material and apparatus, very well equipped.
GRADES.
At the commencement of the Spring Term Miss Anna K. Sheri- den took charge of the first grade in the Cochituate Grammar School. She has done excellent work, not only in her class work, but also exerting a strong, wholesome influence on the pupils.
5
Town of Wayland.
Otherwise the present corps of teachers has been unbroken for almost two years.
In Wayland we have not been so fortunate, as three teachers have resigned since schools closed last June.
Miss Celina H. Lewis left to go to Waltham. Miss Lewis did excellent work in the eighth and ninth grades.
Miss Olive L. Cook, who taught the first and second grades for over two years, went to Beverly in November. She possessed rare qualities and was peculiarly adapted for the work in these grades.
In January, Miss Emily F. Damon, who had been a teacher at Wayland Centre for eight years, was obliged to resign. It was a distinct loss to our schools, for Miss Damon's work as a class teacher and disciplinarian was of the highest order.
The resignations of these teachers were accepted with regret by the committee.
Miss Mary A. Mulliken, in the eighth and ninth grades, Miss Frances S. Whiting, in the first and second grades, and Mrs. Wilcox, who has charge of Miss Damon's room, are doing exceed- ingly good work.
MUSIC AND DRAWING.
Miss Ellen H. Bartlett, who had for six years been Supervisor of Music, resigned to take charge of the music in Needham. Miss Agnes E. Boland was elected as her successor, and began her work in September last.
Miss Boland is a thoroughly qualified and enthusiastic super- visor and teacher. Since assuming her duties she has introduced needed changes, raised the standard, and infused new life into the work.
Miss Mary J. Stickney, Supervisor of Drawing for nearly three years, is still in charge of this very important branch. She is an artist, and like all true artists, she enthuses both teachers and pupils with a liking for her subject.
It can be said that our schools are progressing, that the work is better than last year, that our teachers are competent and en- thusiastic, and are putting their best endeavors into their school

work. Under these conditions, the schools cannot fail to grow in usefulness.
I wish to thank the people, the committee and the teachers for the hearty support they have given me in every effort to better the schools.
Respectfully submitted,
JOSEPH T. CORLEW, Superintendent.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC.
TO THE SUPERINTENDENT :
I herewith submit my first report of the music in the public schools of Wayland.
A plan of work has been placed in the hands of the teachers each month. A great deal of drill work has been given in each grade, and a marked improvement is shown.
Much stress has been laid on individual work and a plan of this work is given to the teachers. Each pupil is expected to sing the exercise given him without any assistance. He is also expected to know all about the technical part of the exercise. Music is a study in which a child can easily throw the burden of the work on those who like it best. The good effect of this individual work is noticed in the class work. It also is a great aid in the training of attention and the power of application.
A feature of the sixth grade is the scale work. Each pupil can write the signatures of all major scales and build them from the stencil of the piano key-board. The seventh grade take one step farther. They find the relative minor scales from the major and can build all major and minor scales.
There is a great deal of talent in the High School, and we hope to present some very fine chorus work before the end of the year.
I wish to thank the committee and superintendent for their hearty support, and the teachers for their efficient work.
AGNES E. BOLAND,
Supervisor.

Report of the Supervisor of Drawing.
REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING.
MR. JOSEPH T. CORLEW, Superintendent of Schools :
MY DEAR SIR :- The plan of the work in drawing in the Way- land schools thus far has been similar to that of last year. Having had the schools the year previous, more can be accomplished in the different phases of training this present year, as a definite idea is known of what can be done by each class.
It is my aim to consider more thoroughly this spring, the subject of design. It is here that a child has an opportunity to make a practical application of what has been studied. It is very gratify- ing indeed to have boys and girls able to produce truthful repre- sentations in drawing and painting, but if by doing these things a child's taste is not refined, the subject that is called drawing in the schools may as well be omitted entirely. Blashfield, in his "Italian Cities " says : "Art did not mean the production of pictures and statues only ; it meant a practical application of the knowledge of the beautiful to the needs of daily life." It is to "the needs of daily life" that this art training is applied.
Given a few good principles, that he knows to be true, a pupil learns that there is a "right and wrong" in all design, and as Ruskin says, "finds out the right," and we trust likes that, he learns the one great principle that governs all design - use, that every article from a kitchen utensil to a cathedral has its mission.
In designing and constructing simple ideas, this truth of " fitness to purpose " is more fully impressed on his mind.
In making a design for a sofa pillow top, the first thing consid- ered is the use of the object. This will limit the material, the size and color, and most important, the design.
9
Town of Wayland.
These are simple little truths, which if considered more in the construction of things, would give fewer inconsistencies in our daily life. There is one other motive in giving this work in design, it encourages the individual worker to create things for himself - to apply his designs to material. Thus, besides being a means in developing taste, it encourages hand labor.
As there is to be an exhibition in June of work done in the schools, no drawings have been selected to be reproduced for this report. The drawings exhibited will be selected from the different phases of work done during the entire school year, each child being represented.
I wish to extend my thanks to the superintendent and the com- mittee for their support in my work, and to express my apprecia- tion to the teachers for their efforts.
Respectfully submitted,
February 1, 1905
MARY J. STICKNEY.
