We are pleased to report that a number of the High School pupils not taking Manual Training for points, embrace the opportunity offered to work upon projects for home during their spare time, such as win- dow screens, bread boards, baking boards, ironing boards, cabinets, repairs, etc.
Inspection trips not only to study local methods of production but to study methods in such institutions as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Wentworth Institute, Sturtevant Blower Works, Brown & Sharpe, etc., are recommended as being valuable means of broaden- ing the education of the manual training pupils.

REPORT OF THE TEACHER OF SEWING.
Mr. Lewis A. Fales, Superintendent of Schools:
I herewith submit my eighth report of the work in sewing. Sew- ing is one of the most useful and practical branches of study taught in the schools. It teaches the child not only to construct simple gar- ments but also to repair them and keep them in order. The aim of the course is to make each individual part of the work as interesting and practical as possible and to encourage the children to strive for good results.
The instruction must be systematic. This is not only true of the year's work, but the course as a whole, joins itself to form a chain, of which each individual bit of work is a link. The work is graded from the simplest detail to the finished garment.
142
ANNUAL REPORT
Neatness and order are important essentials of all needle work, both in the actual sewing and in the care of material. During the construction of any garments, accuracy is insisted upon and each por- tion of the article being made must be the best that the individual is capable of giving, before she is allowed to go on.
I am always glad to vary the work to fit the needs of the individ- ual pupil, that the garment may be useful and not an added expense. Throughout the course I am endeavoring to keep the work as econo- mical as possible, recognizing the many demands made on the parents at this time.
Each girl is also trying to "Do her bit." The girls of the fifth grade are snipping rags for pillows; those of the sixth are knitting squares for afghans and hemming towels for hospitals; the seventh are making gray flannel night gowns and princess slips, while the eighth are making black sateen dresses for the school children in France. All of the material for the garments is supplied by the Red Cross Chapter of Attleboro.
There are at present about four hundred girls enrolled in the sew- ing classes, comprising eleven schools, four grades and twenty-eight classes.
Whenever possible the time given is one hour each week but in order to accomplish this it has been necessary to combine classes, making some too large for good work.
Where the schools open at one and one-fifteen, throughout the year, I have given the first period of the session in order to gain as much time as possible.
The Singer sewing machines have added to the efficiency of our course and I wish to express my thanks for this much needed equip- ment. I would also suggest that one be supplied for both the South Attleboro and Tiffany Schools.
The results are the best report of a practical subject and those in sewing were collected at the school exhibition in Bliss Hall last June. It was largely attended and many expressed an appreciation of the work which is being carried on in this department.
The co-operation of parents is earnestly desired because their in- terest and help is essential. We extend a cordial invitation to all who are interested to visit the classes and see the work being done.
Respectfully submitted,
MINNIE A. WALKER.
REPORTS OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIANS.
Mr. Lewis A. Fales, Superintendent of Schools:
The following is the report with recommendations of the School Physician for the year 1917.
The work of supervising the conditions pertaining to the health of school children grows more and more important as the time goes on. The inspection of schools is carried on in almost every town and city in the State but I feel that we have established more than this now in the care of our children. Our examination is more or less nothing but inspection, and yet in many cases it amounts to a great deal more, now that we have our own school nurse. With this office filled by a
.
143
ANNUAL REPORT
very competent young lady, we are able to have a complete follow up system, which has accomplished many good results for the betterment of the children's health.
An example of the above is as follows: A case of impetigo is found in a school room. The school nurse goes to that home and endeavors to instruct the mother of that child about the necessary treatment of the disease. In this way we are having less and less of such condi- tions and the children will be thus benefited, as well as our school attendance.
The mental clinic has been conducted as often as Dr. Wallace and his assistant, Dr. Libby, from the State Hospital at Wrentham, can give us a Monday. Already there have been many cases classified but we still have many cases which need examination. As this work goes on something must be done to care for these backward children be- cause they cannot all be sent to institutions nor can they have private teachers. Again, I repeat the recommendation I made two years ago that a room with a special teacher be established in one of our school buildings for the teaching of backward children.
The open air school room for the care and teaching of tubercular and pre-indisposed tubercular children is coming to be more and more important in our city where we have so many such children. The Health Officer, Dr. Kent, and I both feel that this is a most urgent need, in fact the most important for the betterment of the health of the children in future years. You and I made an interesting visit to Paw- tucket last spring inspecting open air schools maintained by that city. The results obtained were very striking as shown by the health and weight charts which are kept for each child.
The expense of maintaining such a room is small according to their experience. I feel that it costs us ten times more without such a room because of exposing our well children to the tubercular ones. We do not see that in dollars and cents, however, until it is too late.
I am preparing some statistics in regard to the location and num- ber of such children that we have scattered through our schools in the hope that it will show the need of such a room. recommend the establishment of an open air school in the unused school building on South Main street.
During examinations I found that there were 97 children with enlarged and diseased tonsils and adenoids needing operation. It was interested to know how this condition influenced the mental growth of the children so I had Miss Taylor investigate as to the progress of each one of the reported 97 children, in their studies. Our of the 97 there were 59 who were slow and backward and the remaining 38 were just able to keep up with their classes.
I believe that this helps to prove that when a child has such a condition, it should be removed.
During the past year I operated on twelve children free of charge, in every case removing large and diseased tonsils.
Six hundred and fifty-three (653) working and health cards have been signed, three hundred and twelve (312) vaccination certificates and five hundred and sixty (560) permits to return to school.
I commend to you the work of our school nurse, Mrs. Alfred Walker. In every way she is proving a most efficient worker. She is getting results.
Respectfully submitted,
WILFRED E. ROUNSEVILLE, M. D.

ANNUAL REPORT
Mr. Lewis A. Fales, Superintendent of Schools:
From the following report, it will, be noted that the predominating defects were enlarged glands and bad teeth. In the majority of cases enlarged glands resulted secondarily from the latter. A reduction in the percentage of these conditions could be brought about either by proper supervision of the child's teeth at home or by the incorporation of dental hygiene into the curriculum of the schools.
An epidemic of chicken pox, involving twenty-six pupils and one teacher, occurred at the Tiffany School, but owing to the mildness of the malady it was not deemed necessary to close the school. Two cases of diphtheria occurred at the Bliss School, both in one room. The cultures were taken from the entire room but all were returned negative. I am glad to commend the school nurse and the teachers for their willing co-operation as through their efforts the efficiency and com- fort of the pupils have been greatly increased.
Respectfully submitted,
JESSE W. BATTERSHALL, M. D.
REPORT OF THE ATTENDANCE OFFICER.
Mr. Lewis A. Fales, Superintendent of Schools:
The work of investigating the various causes of absence from school during the past year has been much as usual. Aside from the usual investigation there have been several cases where pupils were sent out by order of the school physicians but failed to return to school after having been out a sufficient length of time to recover from the cause for which they were excused.
At the beginning of the year 1917 there were many applications for benevolence and I was obliged to draw quite heavily on the Ben- evolent Fund, but owing to the improved conditions of work in the factories after the spring term these applications were reduced very much.
Following is a table showing number of cases investigated:
