SPRINGFIELD CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC (Established 1864)-Mrs. M. J. D. Hutch- ins, proprietor and instructor, assisted by an able corps of teachers. Rooms, Nos. 1, 2, and 3 Shaw's Block, Main street. There are about 80 pupils. ""A piano-forte ware- room is connected with the institution.
Young Men's Christian Associa- tion.
Rooms 413 Main street, until September 1, when the Association will remove to the rooms on the second floor of Hurlbut's block, 344 Main street. Strangers and young people, and especially those who have just come to the city to reside, are cordially invited to come in.
The reading-room is supplied with lead- ing daily and weekly papers, secular and religious, and popular magazines, and is free to all. Any"service that can be ren- dered by the committees on boarding-houses and employment, visiting the sick, etc., will be cheerfully done. Short prayer meetings are held at the rooms, Wednesday and Sat- urday evenings at 8 P. M., and Sunday evening at 6 P. M.
The desire for social enjoyment so natural in the young, has the hearty sympathy of the officers, and efforts will be made to gratify it in various ways, more than here- tofore. Evening entertainments are occa- sionally held at the rooms.
Young people coming to the city find that their subsequent standing and success are determined largely at the outset, by their choice of good associates, care to improve leisure moments, and kind and helpful efforts for others in need.
Nearly one thousand letters deposited in the post-office, from which by mistake stamps were omitted, have been forwarded by the Association. Hundreds of responses have come back, some acknowledging that notices of sickness or death had thus been sent them, and one party received a valua- ble enclosure, the delay of which would

have caused considerable pecuniary loss. More would have been done for the pleas- ure and advantage of young people at the rooms, if these had been on a lower floor. A desirable change of location in this respect will be effected by the removal to Hurlbut's block, September 1. It is not too much to hope, however, that, in the near future, a suitable building will be erected for the As- sociation. It was organized in 1864, and there are nearly 300 members.
Officers-President, O. D. Morse ; Vice- Presidents, H. W. Hallett, C. C. Burdett ; Secretary, W. H. Eaton; Treasurer, H. S. Bushnell. Chairman of the committee on boarding-houses and employment, Charles S. Marsh, (J. S. Marsh & Co.)
LADIES' BRANCH-Organized in 1870. President, Mrs. Emerson Wight; Vice- President, Mrs. A. J. Pease ; Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. A. M. Butterfield. Mrs. J. F. Chapman (36 Pynchon street), is at the head of the committee on boarding-houses and employment. Cases of sickness among young women in the city, who are yet strangers and in need, should be reported to either of the officers. There are about 140 members. Many girls are employed in shops and manufactories here; but those who come to the city do not readily find work, except as domestics. This Associa- tion will render to such all the aid in their power.
Home for Friendless Women and Children.
Officers-President, Mrs. Charles Mer- riam ; Vice-Presidents, Mrs. William Rice, Mrs. S. Merrick; Clerk, Mrs. N. A. Leonard ; Treasurer, Mrs. Heman Smith; Corres- ponding Secretary, Mrs. J. R. Hixon ; Au- ditor, Charles Marsh; Advisory Committee, Rev. S. G. Buckingham, D. D., Geo. Walker, D. H. Brigham, O. W. Wilcox, Charles Marsh, A. L. Soule. Applications for ad. mission received at the Home, 23 Union street, on Wednesday and Saturday after- noons, from 3 to 5 P. M.
This institution was established in 1865. Its work having greatly increased during the first five years of its existence, it was found necessary to provide more room. A large and commodious house has been erected during the past year, on Bucking- liam street, capable of receiving fifty or
more children, and this is now occupied by children only, the women being still in- mates of the old building. About $22,000 was subscribed by the citizens of Spring- field for the purpose, and $8,000 more was raised by a fair held in May, 1871, in the City Hall, Springfield, to which several towns in the western part of the state con- tributed liberally. At the present time the corporation own two buildings and hold real and personal estate amounting to about forty-five thousand dollars.
The work of providing for friendless and destitute women and children can be more successfully carried on by placing them in separate houses. Only temporary cases are received. It is the object of the institution to fit its beneficiaries for future usefulness, and to provide them with employment. During the year ending October 1, 1870, this institution received and cared for 101 persons, of whom 44 were women, and 57 children. It is expected that many more ยป can be received during the coming year, and that the sick, for whom there has been no accommodation heretofore, can be now cared for. The Children's Home on Buck- ingham street, about half a mile east of the United States Arsenal, is substantially built of brick with stone facings and with a mansard roof. It has all modern ap- pliances for comfort and convenience, and a fine, healthy location. An annual gift of $2,000 has been received from the state for the support of the Home, since it was es- tablished, on condition that an equal sum be raised by private donations. The Board of State Charities inspect this institution and receive an annual report from its offi- cers of its expenses, and its work.
The Public Schools.
SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS-E. A. Hubbard. Office, City Hall. Office hours, from 12 M. to 1 P. M. of each school day ; Saturdays, from 10 to 11 A. M.
Schools may fairly be reckoned among the attractions of Springfield. For all the children go to them, and many grown-up people, as well. Of the whole number be- tween the ages of five and fifteen, returned by the assessors, nine-three per cent. at- tended the public schools the past year. Even the small remainder may be accounted -

for as in the private schools. The adults also crowded Mr. Emery's classes in me- chanical drawing, during the winter, and included some old men, and many excellent mechanics. Of the nearly one hundred teachers, there are less than twenty who were not thus employed by the city a year ago. Considering that most of them are ladies, whose aptness for instruction, win- ning ways and thorough scholarship draw so many pupils, the permanency of their present relation is as creditable to the city as it is profitable for the schools.
Most of the schools are arranged in groups as follows : North Main street group, in- cluding all north of the B. & A. Railroad ; Elm street group, including all between Worthington and York streets, and between the river and Chestnut and School streets ; Worthington street group, including the streets near the depot, and from Chestnut street to the Armory, and from the B. & A. + Railroad to State street; Armory Hill group, including the Fifth Ward ; Central street group, including Pine street and the Chapel ; and Indian Orchard group. Except on Worthington street, each of the large school-houses is occupied by a grammar school, divided into several grades as the different attainments of the pupils require. Around this, in the smaller, old school- houses, are the primary schools of the group. On Worthington street, the grammar school and primaries are in one building.
Children beginning in the primary school, in three years are prepared for the grammar school ; here they study five years, rising through successive grades to the High School, where, in four years more, they are fitted for college, or the seminary, and so well fitted that Yale, Harvard and the other colleges have readily admitted pupils from here, and sometimes into advanced classes.
There is an ungraded school on State street, and to this the truant officers, by kind and judicious efforts, gather many children who would otherwise lose the ad- vantages of education.
The truant school is at the almshouse. and numbers over 20 pupils. Juvenile of- fenders, who might grow up a burden to society and a " curse to themselves," are. sent here. The teacher has given head, heart and hands to the instruction of these boys, and the change wrought in their man- ners and morals is most gratifying. What
Superintendent Hubbard said of them in a former report is true now : "No company of boys, more gentlemanly, more manly than these, is seen in our churches, our Sabbath- schools, or on our streets." The present lo- cation of this school annoys the aged and infirm poor in the house, and is undesirable in other respects. At a comparatively small expense to the city, a suitable house, farm and workshop might be provided, where, with a matron and teacher, these boys would partly pay their way, have a good home, and form habits of industry.
The training school on State street, west of Main, is found of great advantage to in- experienced teachers, who receive a smaller salary, and are here qualified to fill respon- sible positions as vacancies occur.
The High School, too large for its build- ing, still occupies a part of the City Hall. Scientific subjects receive more attention in this school than formerly. Apparatus valued at $1,500 is provided for instruction in phi- losophy and chemistry ; and lectures, con- nected with these branches, are given every Thursday afternoon, and part of the year also on Tuesday afternoons, which are open to the public.
Six large school-houses have been built since 1864, and their aggregate cost is a little over $250,000. They are furnished with all the modern improvements, pleasant- ly situated and attractive. From the new one on Central street, may be seen some of the finest views in the city. Flowers grow within and without; the yards are well kept, and surrounded with neat fences. Of the good effect of these kindly influences upon the children, even the birds testify, for in the gate post of one school-yard, they have built their nest and reared their young unmolested.
A lot has been purchased on State street, next east of the church of the Unity, on which a new building for the High school is to be erected. Nearly all the school-houses are well filled with pupils, and yet more room is wanted in some localities. No more gratifying evidence could be given of the growth of Springfield. People turn to look at these buildings in passing, as signs of the condition of the schools within; and strangers are attracted here, by the better facilities afforded for educating their chil- dren. Expenditures for educational pur- poses, by the city, the last few years, may
