besides ten shares of the Grocers' Bank, Boston, upon which nothing has been realized, and its ultimate value, without doubt very trifling. The stocks now owned, have cost, $11,035 exclusive of the Grocers' Bank ($1000) and are worth at market prices nearly $12,000. There is also a balance of cash on hand as per account of $454 61, from which however is to be paid the accruing salary of the 'Teacher, and perhaps a small amount of unsettled bills. At the close of the last summer term, Mr. A. O. Leavitt resigned his position as Teacher, and was succeeded by Mr. John F. Colby, a graduate of Dartmouth College, favor- ably known in the town, having taught three consecutive winters in District No. 2. 'Theschool has been fully attended, and its condition in the opinion of the Trustees is such that it will compare favorably with previous years-yet they feel anxious to have greater progress made, and more marked proficiency manifested by the Boys attending, to accomplish which, it is certain that the qualifications for admission should be of a higher standard, reducing the number of pupils, rather than adopting the policy of filling the school regardless of age or ability. To attain desirable advances, the Trustees will feel compelled to refuse, as they have in some cases heretofore, the applications of very young and unqualified boys .. "The prosperity and efficiency of the pupils depends quite as much upon co-
70
operation of parents and friends as upon the efforts of the Trustees, and they are convinced that nothing will tend more to promote the welfare of the school than frequent visits during sessions by persons interested, who will be most cor- dially welcomed at all times by the Principal. Heretofore the usefulness of the school has been impaired by the custom of making four terms in a year, consisting of about ten or eleven weeks each, under which arrangement, perhaps two weeks are exhausted in classifying and establishing, and possibly as many more weeks in preparing for "examination" or "exhibition." These evils consequent upon short terms, would not obtain if boys were admitted for, and continued through the year, but are certain to follow where changes are con- stantly taking place in attendance. To attempt an obviation of such embarrass- ments, the Trustees have voted to make but three terms in the year of thirteen, sixteen and fourteen weeks respectively, and will only abandon the experiment upon conviction of its inutility. In conclusion, the Trustees wish renewedly to urge upon those interested in the prosperity of the " Stetson," as well as other schools, the importance of frequent visits on other than " company" days, con- vinced that the best time to judge of the acquirements of pupils is in the "every day " exercises, rather than when prepared for monthly, quarterly, and annual " examinations " or " exhibitions."
