5. Moral efficiency, having to do with morality and social service.
These are the five great ends, or objectives of education as we conceive education today, and they are developed in the schools, not alone by the knowledge available, but also through the teaching of habits, ideals and appreciation. From this it will be seen that the job of the school today is quite different from that of the little red school house.
RATING OF PUPILS AND SCHOOLS
The work of the schools, until recently, has been rated sub- jectively; there were no scientific, objective standards. Our schools were good or bad if "so-and-so" thought them good or bad. No scientific attempt was made to get impersonal data upon which a judgment might be based. However, educational tests are being worked out and many scientific educational truths are being dis- covered. Our only danger in using these tests is that we will read into our tabulated results more than is actually there. Determina- tion, loyalty, fear, ambition, generosity, kindness, love, hate, resent- ment, willingness to forgive, helpfulness, joy, sorrow, desires, etc., cannot be discovered by educational tests, and yet these character- istics largely determine an individual's usefulness to himself and society. Tests, however, give us valuable data for purposes of comparison, data showing ability to reason, to comprehend, to record facts, and also the rate of ability to learn.
11
During the year educational tests will be given which will record the potential brightness of each pupil. With such an index figure at hand we will be better able to recognize and give help to the slow-moving pupil, and at the same time arrange a program for the bright pupils, sufficiently difficult to make him work. If the slow pupils are not recognized and helped, their school work soon becomes extremely difficult, and very slow progress made, and, where the bright pupils are not compelled to work according to their abilities they become lazy, both of which results tend to give our schools a low rating. The average pupil, of course, fits into our school work, as now organized.
SPECIAL TEACHERS
For a detailed account of the work in music, drawing, domestic science and manual training, I refer you to the respective reports.
The resignation of Mrs. Edwidge Cook was greatly regretted as her work was very successfully done. As her successor we have elected Miss Minnie A. Brigham, whose training and experience fit her well as Mrs. Cook's successor.
Special classes in violin and piano have been started this year under the leadership of Mrs. Harold Chase and Mrs. Jenks, respec- tively. One hope is, that we may have classes in other instruments.
These special teachers report a great deal of interest on the part of their pupils. In the course of the year many of these young people will be playing in our orchestra.
The manual training department is continuing the program of last year. Mr. S. E. Bohaker is making for the Douglas School Department two oak teachers' desks, which will demonstrate the work of his department and at the same time furnish two teachers' with much needed desks.
Our drawing department is continuing along the lines of last year under the leadership of Miss Phyllis Randle. For further details I refer you to her report.
COST OF EDUCATION
Every community owes to its children educational advantages. Every community wants efficient schools. The questions often raised are: Are we paying too much for our schools? Are we spend- ing too large a percentage of our income for schools? Can our school expenditures be justified on economic grounds?
In your endeavor to answer these questions please keep in mind the following facts taken from the Research Bulletins of the National Educational Association:
1. From each dollar of our national yearly income we allot 2.41 cents for public elementary and secondary schools.
2. The investment in public school plants in U. S. is 1.44 per cent. of our total property or wealth.
3. From whatever angle the question is studied, it is clear that but a minor fraction of our economic power and capital is invested in public schools.
12
4. The nations bill for life insurance is slightly larger than that paid for public education. (Is life insurance more important than public education?)
5. For every dollar we spend for public schools we expend $3.01 for new buildings.
6. For every dollar of capital invested in public school plants, we have $4.84 in savings accounts.
7. The public school bill requires $2.41 (elementary and sec- ondary schools) out of each $100 of income; our passenger auto- mobile bill requires $14.21.
8. For every dollar spent for schools, $2.77 is spent for candy, chewing gum, tobacco, theatres, etc.
In conclusion :
First, a minor fraction of the nation's economic power and capital is invested in public schools.
Second, it expends annually for each of a number of items considerably more than it expends for public education. It is doubtful if any of these items are of greater significance to the general welfare than is public education.
With these facts before us, does it appear that there is justi- fication for the contention that too large a part of our wealth and income is invested in the schools, and that more money is expended for education than its importance justifies?
The above data concerns the entire United States. What we are interested in, of course, would be comparative statements concern- ing the economic ability of Douglas to support its schools. Such data we do not have, but we have some interesting statistics rela- tive to our State, and it is presumed the town of Douglas should compare favorably with this state average.
Here are some of the facts having to do with Massachusetts' ability to finance its schools :
1. In estimated wealth Massachusetts is sixth in the list of states with $12,878,793,000.
2. In average annual current income Massachusetts ranks fifth with $3,392,513,000.
3. The wealth per child in Massachusetts (1926) is $23,102 (average for United States is $17,619; Massachusetts in 1900, $8,980.)
4. The average annual current income per child in Massachu- setts is $6,088.
From the foregoing facts, and with the assumption that Doug- las has economic ability to finance its schools equal to the average of the state (a fair assumption) it is apparent that adequate school appropriations will cause no excessive financial burden.
Respectfully submitted,
A. B. GARCELON,
Superintendent of Schools.

Douglas Memorial High School Report
To the Superintendent and School Committee:
I herewith submit my eleventh annual report on the Douglas High School.
The total enrollment since September, 1927, is the same as last year, 72. Of these 30 are boys and 42 girls.
To the date of this report, January 12, no girls have left school and only two boys. One boy went to work and the other broke his leg in a football game and will return as soon as able.
The per cent of attendance for four months was 97.84. Out of an aggregate attendance of 5,197 for the four months there were 34 cases of tardiness. Eleven of these cases seemed unavoidable because of early morning duties at Church, such as the duties of altar boy or choir service.
The program is so crowded this year that the class in Cicero meets after school at 1:45, and a review class in mathematics, started this winter, sometimes must have an afternoon session.
The work is distributed as follows, with the number of pupils taking each subject and the number of periods in each per week:
The Principal :
First Year Algebra, 15 daily
Plane Geometry, 8 daily
American History and Civics, 25 daily
Chemistry, 18, seven periods per week (four for labora- tory) General Science, 25 four periods a week
Review Mathematics, 8 three periods a week
18
Miss Harlow:
Freshmen English, 25 daily
Sophomore English, 20 daily
Junior and Senior English, 25 daily
Business Arithmetic, 10 four times a week Bookkeeping, 12 four times a week Community Civics, 12 four times a week
Typewriting, 20 daily
Miss Fister :
First Year Latin, 14 daily Cæsar, 5 daily
Cicero, 4 daily Beginners' French, 19 daily Junior French, 15 daily
Senior French, 10 daily
Ancient History, 15 four times a week
A great deal of credit is due Miss Harlow and Miss Fister for the fine spirit of co-operation they have shown in our high school work, which includes a great deal besides teaching all the subjects named above. In addition to carrying all this regular work they are ever ready to cheerfully take up whatever seems desirable to pro- mote the interests of the students in their extra-curricula activities. The result of their efforts, and the efforts of the special teachers and of all concerned, enable me to say that the high school is the best by far that it has been in my experience here.
A high percentage of our graduates continue their education in higher institutions. Of the fourteen graduates last year one entered Brown direct from here and is making good there in one of the hardest colleges in the country for a Freshman. Another is in col- lege in Pennsylvania. One girl is in training in Massachusetts Gen- eral Hospital. Six are in business schools and one is in the Lynn General Electric schools.
Of the ten who are to graduate this year, at least three intend to go to college. The more capable are encouraged by the success of our recent graduates in two or three of the best institutions in the country.
Respectfully submitted,
C. W. HOLMES,
Principal.

Report of Supervisor of Music
Mr. A. B. Garcelon, Superintendent of Schools, Douglas, Mass.
DEAR SIR :
In September we begin with a review of the technical work in music and endeavor to proceed carefully in order that the pupils may understand the old problems before proceeding with the new.
Individual singing is being stressed. We can in this way learn whether the individual is thinking for himself or leaning on the leaders.
The orchestra has been workng faithfully. In September we started in with four violins, one trumpet, two saxophones, one drummer and the accompanist. One violinist has since left us. The orchestra has played on several occasions, first at the reception given the new teachers, at the P. T. A. lecture; at the play given by the dramatic club; at the Schubert program given at the High School, also at the High School Christmas party.
The week of November 18, 1928, being internationally observed as Schubert week, programs of Schubert music were given in most of the schools.
Rhythmic bands are being developed. The children in these bands, by means of actually performing on these instruments of no technical difficulty, develop a sense of rhythm, learn concentration and awaken to a sense of group consciousness.
A girls' glee club has just been organized. Weekly rehearsals are being held on Monday evenings.
Again I would like to express my appreciation of the hearty co-operation of the teachers.
Respectfully submitted,
ALMA L. KING,
Music Supervisor.

Report of Supervisor of Drawing
Every town strives to be progressive in their schools and hopes to produce if not great men at least men who will sympathize and encourage the great ones in their endeavors. This is the ultimate aim of drawing and it is especially adapted to the fostering of this attitude by both the creating of one's own works and the apprecia- tion of others.
This year the drawing course has continued along the same lines as last year. All classes are making good progress, and it would be well to have an exhibition of school work in the town hall open to the public for a week so they may judge for themselves.
The zest and enthusiasm with which the seventh and eighth grades entered into a New York contest deserves worthy mention.
Grades 5, 6, 7 and 8 are working on state-wide poster contests fostered by Class. Savings Bank Association and the S. P. C. A.
I should like to see a special drawing class to which talented pupils of the sixth and upper grades could attend once a week.
PHYLLIS RANDLE,
Art Supervisor.

Report of Domestic Science Teacher
Mr. A. B. Garcelon, Superintendent of Schools.
DEAR SIR :
It is with pleasure that I submit my fifth annual report as Supervisor of Home Economics in the public schools of Douglas.
The general aims of the course are:
(a) To give an understanding of the needs and uses of foods in the body.
(b) To develop good eating habits.
(c) To give some skill in the preparation of foods and to interest the girl in practicing at home.
(d) To develop judgment in the selection of food in relation to health through the preparation and serving of meals planned on a health basis.
(e) To give an appreciation of orderly table arrangement and service and a desire for good table manners.
Beginning January 17, 1929, the time allotted for Freshman Cookery has been lengthened from one hour and a half to one hour and fifty minutes, the eighth grade from one hour and ten minutes to one hour and a half, thereby giving each class a better oppor- tunity for more advanced projects.
Sewing
The general aims of the course are:
(a) To develop a knowledge and liking for sewing, to enable the girl to be helpful in the home and to improve her personal appearance.
(b) To develop skill in technical sewing processes, in correct use of proper tools, and to know and use the correct sewing position in regard to body and light.
(c) To develop an appreciation of the care and repair of clothing.
(d) To teach the use of the sewing machine and its care. The time allotted for the sewing class is one hour and three- fourths.
The first half of the year the girls were taught the simple stitches, basting, running, backstitching, overcasting, hemming and overhanding. The project for the last half of the year is the mak- ing of the cooking uniform to be used the next year. This project consists of the making of an apron, holder and towel.
In closing my report I wish to express my appreciation of the co-operation of the Superintendent, School Committee, Principal and teachers.
Respectfully submitted, EDWIDGE COOK,
Supervisor of Home Economics.

Report of Instructor in Manual Training
Mr. A. B. Garcelon, Superintendent of Schools, Douglas. Mass.
DEAR SIR:
I hereby submit my report as Manual Training Instructor in the Public Schools of Douglas.
We have a total of 51 (fifty-one) pupils in the Manual Train- ing Department, all of whom take a great deal of interest in the work.
The seventh grade has devoted most of the time making smaller projects such as, tie racks, broom holders, towel holders, etc.
The eighth grade have advanced far enough to make the larger, more practical projects such as ferneries, medicine cabinets, table lamps and floor lamps.
The High School boys have made some very good projects and some of them were: Magazine stands, smoking stands, medicine cabinets, taborets and ferneries.
The general group are working on teachers' desks and these as well as the other projects will be on exhibition in order that the people may see that Manual Training is a benefit to the boys in the public schools.
Respectfully submitted,
S. E. BOHAKER,
Supervisor of Manual Training.

Report of School Nurse
Mr. A. B. Garcelon, Superintendent of Schools :
The following is my annual report of the work done by me as School Nurse in the public schools of Douglas and East Douglas for the year 1928.
Daily visits were made to the schools, which covered a period of two hours each day.
Assisted School Physician with his annual inspection of the pupils at the beginning of the school term.
556 Pupils inspected for pediculi.
85 First aid treatments.
9 Pupils excluded from school on account of illness, etc.
7 Pupils referred to family physician.
109 Visits made to the homes of pupils.
657 Pupils weighed and measured.

The dental clinic sponsored by the P. T. A. was held as usual this year, the work including the first four grades.
This year's examination has shown a great improvement in the children's teeth and we hope this work can be continued.
We were very fortunate this year with so few cases of com- municable diseases reported.
At this time I wish to thank you, the School Committee, teach- ers and parents for the kind co-operation given me.

Report of Instructor
in Summer Sewing Class
Mr. A. B. Garcelon, Superintendent of Schools.
DEAR SIR :
I herewith submit my fourteenth report as Supervisor of the Summer Sewing. This class numbered 58, the largest class we have ever had.
The classes were well attended, much interest shown and the results were manifest at our exhibition held in the Town Hall, Tuesday evening, August 28th.
I wish to thank Mrs. Aldrich for the use of her sewing machine and Miss Jenckes for cloth contributed.
Since the opening of school, Mrs. Marie S. Smith has presented us with a sewing machine, which will be much appreciated.
