SUGGESTIVE PLAN OF QUALIFICATIONS OF PUPILS FOR ADMISSION TO THE SECOND YEAR OR GRADE.
It occasionally happens that parents wish their children to enter the public schools in the second grade without attending the kin- dergarten or first grade. Whenever this has been allowed it has been found in most cases that the child is so far behind those who have had the kindergarten training that much of his (we use the masculine pronoun in this circular as inclusive of both sexes) first year is practically wasted in getting the training he should have obtained before. This is such an injury both to the child and to the school, that the committee has decided to require here- after that those children whose parents wish them to enter our primary schools in the second grade, must possess such knowledge and qualifications as are acquired by the average child in the first or kindergarten grade. What these formal qualifications are is set forth below.
The average child five or six years old, when ready to leave the kindergarten, should know the primary colors, red, orange, yellow green, blue and violet in their proper order, and be able to select and name these colors and arrange them harmoniously.
He should be able to select, name and describe the common forms, such as circle, square, oblong, triangle, right triangle, equilateral triangle, octagon, hexagon, sphere, cube, cylinder, triangler prism, square prism, etc., and to model in clay the solid forms; to understand the meaning of, and to draw, parallells, verticals and horizontals ; and to measure in inches.
He should be able to illustrate and describe the following posi- tions and movements : circular, vertical, horizontal, right, left, above, below, back of, in front of, etc.
171
He should count and do number work in addition and subtrac- tion to ten.
He should be able to draw with lead pencil and chalk the plain figures mentioned above, and also many simple designs.
He should have a good idea of the various common occupations, such as those of the baker, cooper, blacksmith, carpenter, shoe- maker, farmer, wheelwright, miner, sailor, doctor, soldier, etc.
He should know where the various articles that are in common use come from, such as wool, cotton, coal, flour, potatoes, leather, butter, wood, fruits, etc.
He should know and be able to name, and tell something about, the common objects of nature, such as leaves, flowers, fruits, in- sects, fishes, birds and domestic animals.
He should be able to weave simple designs with colored strips of paper or wood and to sew with colored worsteds the punctured outlines of simple forms.
. He should have clear ideas of the nature and organization of home life, should know the elements or members of the family, the duties and occupations of each, that he, the child, has a neces- sary part in it, and that the peace, comfort, and support of the home and each member of it, depend upon each one's doing his part for the good of all. This knowledge becomes a basis for in- struction in patriotism in succeeding grades.
He should understand the nature and meaning of special events, such as Thanksgiving Day, Christmas, Memorial Day, and Fourth of July, and should have some appreciation of the succession of time by days of the week and months of the year.
He should be able to tell what he sees and thinks in simple sentences and to understand and to execute the simple directions that teachers must give to pupils of the next higher or second grade. .
He should have acquired from his training in the kindergarten, habits of obedience, work, kindness, sympathy, politeness, neat- ness, carefulness, etc.
172
The object of all the training in the first or kindergarten grade is to develop in the pleasantest and most natural manner, the child's powers of' observation, hearing, and muscular control, to stimulate thought and imagination and to awaken his powers of at- tention and understanding,-in short, to stimulate normal child growth, to help him to an understanding of the world and his threefold relationship to it, in nature, humanity and God, through which he acquires ideas of helpfulness, social interdependence and common interests and aims, all resulting in a character whose standard is : "He that is greatest among you, let him be servant of all." At the same time the utmost care is taken to avoid all forc- ing or cramming of the child or any mental strain that may be injurious. Through the songs, games and occupations of the kin- dergarten, it is the constant aim of the teacher to develop the spontaneous and moral activities of the child, without which no training in any grade of school possesses permanent value.
It is self-evident that the child who has had this delightful ex- perience education, who has been trained to interpret and apply its lessons, whose interests in the materials of his child life are strong, natural and permanent, who has learned to practice the useful aims of industrial activity, and to whom a healthful spon- taneity is an incentive and law of action,-one who has been given the substance of education instead of its form or husks,- has such a preparation for future development and progress as can in no way be compared with that which is derived from an extended period of instruction in mere forms of knowledge such as reading, spelling, etc., to the exclusion of the vital and sub- stantial elements of experience and observation and of any con- tact with practical industrial life.
A child with the kindergarten training as indicated above, is ready to begin the work of the second grade and to make rapid ' and continuous progress. Learning to read becomes a much simpler matter and a pleasure, instead of drudgery, for a child who has already been taught to fix his attention, to observe forms and shapes and to express himself orally and who has a genuine interest in the things about which he is to read.
173
The training of the fingers, hands and arins that he has received from his drawing, weaving, sewing and other manual exercises in the kindergarten, together with the habits of attention, observa- tion and thought, becomes of special value to the pupil in learning to write. He is able to grasp and move the pen or pencil more steadily and to comprehend and follow the directions of the teacher with much greater facility.
The concrete number exercises of the first grade are a most de- sirable and essential preparation for the abstract arithmetic of the succeeding grade. In short, there is no study that a child takes up in the second grade that he has not been prepared for through the kindergarten training of the first grade.
It is hoped that all parents will fully appreciate the spiritual and moral advantages of the social life of the kindergarten, in which kindness, sympathy and co-operation in a practical and concrete form are the controlling ideals.
If parents wish to have the children prepared for the second grade elsewhere than in the first grade schools, the kindergarten teachers will hold parents' meetings at convenient times for the purpose of giving the needed instruction in the scope, aims and methods of the work of the first grade.
With the new kindergarten in the Middle street district, there are now four of these schools which, with the aid of the convey- ances from Mayflower Park, and the Pond and the West street districts, are available to the children of the town.
Examinations for special admissions to the second grade, will be oral, of a simple nature adapted to the children, by a teacher of one of these grades, in the presence of the parents if desired, and will be given at convenient times during the first two school weeks in September, January and April. At times when the re- sults of the examination are doubtful, pupils may be given a brief trial in the second grade ..
174
Further information concerning these requirements can be ob- tained of any of the teachers of the two lowest grades or of the superintendent. 1

THE ELECTRICIAN'S REPORT.
The past year in this department has been a very successful one from an electrical standpoint. The plant has been run continu. ously without accidents to our lines or machinery, and we have furnished light every night and all night, except one night when we had trouble with our largest house-lighting dynamo.
Two arc lamps have been added to our street system, making 93 arc lamps and 110 incandescents in use, equaling in power used 125 arc lamps of 1,200 candle-power each.
We have installed 13 transformers, 34 meters and connected 440 commercial incandescents, making to-day 108 transformers, 163 meters and 3,950 commercial lights connected and in service.
The charge for light by meter has remained the same as last year,.6 cent per 16 candle-power lamp per hour and the income from light was $5,188.87. The meter rent income was $185.60. The income from jobbing and material sold was $1,330.51-making a total of $6,704.98.
By vote of the town, meters have been installed in places form- erly supplied by contract, and with one exception the town has gained largely thereby.
Extensive repairs and changes to our system have been made, all of which changes have been paid for. Our outside lines have been looked after, poles straightened up and guyed, wires pulled up and slack cut out, and the whole outside system maintained in good working order.
Almost all of our arc lamps have been taken down, carried to station, thoroughly overhauled, new improved clutches put in and lamp made practically new.
In 1895 we had considerable trouble from surface water running
187
into our basement and boiler room. The water caused one of our boiler foundations to settle, so we have had a system of sewer pipes put in that drains the basement so thoroughly that we have had no further trouble.
The boilers, engines and piping have been carefully looked after, repairs have been made and steam plant is in perfect shape.
This last fall we had a very large increase in the number of consumers of light and our dynamos being too small in capacity to handle the load, we burned out the armature of our largest dynamo and was obliged to have the armature rewound. It was thought best to have a town meeting called to see what action should be taken in relation to furnishing the department with machinery of greater capacity. The town voted $3,000 to purchase a dynamo of 150 k. w. capacity, capable of furnishing 2,500 lights, and a committee was appointed to purchase dynamo belting and neces- sary appliances. After careful consideration the committee voted to purchase a general electric 150 k. w. Monocyclic dynamo-a machine that will supply 2500 lights of 16 candle power each, and same dynamo can be used for power purposes as well if it should ever be necessary to furnish motor power.
The dynamo has been installed in our station and works well.
It was the intention to trade off our smallest dynamo, but the price offered was so small that the committee thought best for the town to keep it, so we now have three house lighting dynamos with a combined capacity of 4,000 lamps, which, I think, will be ample for some time to come.
We have used 873 tons of Cumberland coal, of which amount 30 tons should be charged to the fire department, as we have been obliged to bank our fires heavily to keep up the necessary steam pressure for blowing the whistle properly.
We have used 2,175,000 gallons of water.
The street lights have burned 2,686 hours.
The commercial lights have burned 4,495 hours.
