Teachers and Salaries


Methods may be of the best. Courses of study, carefully and finely analyzed, but in the final summing up of a school sit- uation, the school is as are its teachers. It is trite to dwell upon what is generally conceded that teachers who have personality, the essentials of child leadership, love of work, love of children and initiative are the very bed-rock foundation upon which, in a large measure, the character of children is founded.


Changing economic conditions have created not only high prices in living, but has made extraordinary demands for labor that can be performed by women offering renumeration far above the wage earning power of the teacher. To keep our present teach- ing force at its present standard, fully aware as we are that teach- ers are leaving and not so many as formerly entering the profes- sion, a better schedule of payment must be arranged.


Our present maximum pay for grade teachers is $700.00. Comparing this maximum pay with the pay of the girl graduates of the commercial department of our high school who are engaged, for the most part as book-keepers, typists, and stenographers, and considering that our graduates hold these positions without any other training than that afforded by the high school, something of the conditions that tempt our girls to enter commercial lines rather than teaching will be clearly understood.


Forty-one out of seventy-five of the girls graduating from Commercial Department of the High school, since 1910, reported earning power as follows:

Growth in School Population and Housing Pupils


The congestion of pupils in the south part of the town must lead to the consideration of a definite building programme that will offer permanent relief to the situation. Three new portables at the Noah Torrey School, which later can be used in other sections of the town, will help conditions there, possibly for three years.


The 293 pupi's registered this year at the high school have very nearly taxed to the limit the capacity of that building as a high school. I recommend that immediate steps be taken to secure a site and building plans for a new high school-building to be post- poned to more normal times. A high school erected to accommo- date 500 pupils would free the present high school building for the purposes of a grammar school and would adequately care for the growth of school population in the south and north parts of the town for many years.


War and School Appropriations


The increased burdens entailed by war conditions upon fami- lies and municipalities have lead to a consideration of the possibi- lity of cutting down items of expense in certain departments. In this connection I think it well to submit to your consideration the excellent letter from Payson Smith, Commissioner of Education, relative to the schools and inadequate financial support.


MASSACHUSETTS BOARD OF EDUCATION STATE HOUSE, BOSTON


January 2, 1918


To the Members of the School Committee:


With the approach of the annual town meetings, when the question of appropriations is to be taken up, our people should give thoughtful attention to the unusual conditions confronting the schools. Increased costs in every direction bring the towns and cities face to foce with the necessity of increasing school appro- priations for the coming year. The schools have never before re- quired more thoughtful attention to their needs, and it will not be safe to handicap them with a policy of retrenchment.


It is worthy the attention of the American people that, in spite of enormous expenditures for war purposes, France is giving un- precendented attention to her public schools, and England, for the


199


current year increased her expenditures for public education, 30 per cent. over that for any preceding year.


In the school year 1915-16, Massachusetts expended approxi- mately $27,000,000 for public education. This amount was in- creased to $28,500,00 for the school year 1916-17. This increase of approximately 6 per cent. shows the serious intention of our people to maintain a vigorous educational policy. In view of the present situation, Massachusetts cannot afford to relax in any de- gree her efforts to carry on her schools at highest efficiency.


Education is a long-time investment. Its purpose is to pro- tect democracy through the right training of the youth. Even tem- porary interference with this purpose, through inadequate finan- cial support, may seriously impair the quality of our future citi- zenship. In the present crisis, it is imperative that towns and cities give careful consideration to the needs of the schools.


Sincerely yours, PAYSON SMITH, Commissioner of Education.


The generosity shown by the citizens in former years towards their schools argues well that despite the increased costs, the broad- minded spirit that has demanded good schools will bear the in- creased burdens cheerfully and the general thought will be that any curtailments of expenditure in this important department of the town's life will mean ultimate loss.


In conclusion I desire to thank the members of your committee for helpful co-operation and advice in matters pertaining to school management; the town's people for the loyal spirit shown towards our school system, teachers, and principals for the work of the year so cheerfully and willingly performed.


Respectfully submitted,


R. L. WIGGIN

Braintree, January 1, 1918 MEATS, PROVISJONS AND VEGETABLES


To the Board of Health:


Gentlemen :- I have the honor to submit the following report of the Inspection of meats, provisions and slaughtering for the year ending December 31, 1917. Owing to the high cost of living, there are short about 5,000 neat cattle in the Commonwealth this year which necessarily means a large shortage of calves. The number of hogs raised by the farmers for the market is short owing to high cost of, and the scarcity of garbage, but the "Keep a pig movement" by the individuals has greatly increased this year for home con- sumption. I have inspected 631 animal carcasses and out of that number have stamped for approval 630, classified as follows: neat cattle 18; calves 45, sheep 1, hogs 512, pigs 54. I have condemned during the year as unfit for consumption 1 neat cattle badly in- fected with tuberculosis. There have been 5 licenses granted during the past year for slaughtering.

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMAES


Braintree, Mass., January 23, 1918.


. To the Honorable Board of Selectmen,


Gentlemen :- Books were furnished me as usual for making out my annual report as animal inspector for the year 1917. I com- menced this inspection on January 15, 1917. I visited 118 places where neat cattle. pigs. sheep and goats were kept, but found it quite difficult to visit every place where a single goat was kept and possibly might not even then have found them all. At the 118 places visited I found 432 cows, and 57 young cattle, also 6 bulls and 3 sheep. In Braintree, the keeping of sheep seems to be a thing of the past. At 41 different places I found 532 pigs. Quite a large number of these were kept in excellent condition, several herds of swine in just fair condition, and others in very poor con- dition. Such owners, I had to instruct to clean up the place. be- fore I could make a favorable report. As far as the general con- dition of the neat cattle is concerned, I can see a marked improve- ment. This has been brought about by special instructions from the Bureau of Animal Industry to the Inspector oi Animals in this town. I have found two cases of tuberculosis this past year, one of which was taken care of by burial on the place, by request of the owner, and consent of the Inspector and the place thorough- ly cleaned up to my satisfaction, all of which was done at the expense of the owner. The other case was in the southern part of the town. The animal was quarantined. and state authorities notified; it was then condemned by them. taken away and killed, and the carcass sent to the rendering plant at Fall River.

All of which is respectfully submitted.

THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PARK COMMISSIONERS


French's Common in Precinct No 1 has received more than usual attention this year. In addition to the clearing up from time to time, the Iron Grille over the entrance has received a coat of weather-resisting paint, new and substantial bleacher seats have been erected, new seats installed in the grove, and several dead trees removed. Back of the Grove in the part used by numerous adjacent residents as a dump in spite of the request of the Park Board, the underbrush has been cut, the debris removed, and the land partially levelled off. This portion of the field ought to be plowed and seeded down-this would be a useless expense, however, unless the householders who are using this as a dump cease from so doing.


HOLLIS PLAYGROUND-PRECINCT 2


Little has been done this year except to keep the grass cut and the field generally clean. The trees planted through the help of the Braintree Improvement Society have done well and show good growth. It is hoped that when conditions become more nor- mal again that this playground can have the treatment that it properly deserves.


PLAYGROUND-PRECINCT 3


This playground has been plowed, harrowed, levelled and seeded down and should make a reasonably good Baseball field this coming season. A standard six-seat swing was installed during the past season.


In view of the War the Commission feel that it would be un- wise to spend any money on additions or improvements on the parks this year. It is recommended that the sum of $150 be raised and appropriated in the usual manner to defray the ex- pense of maintenance.


· Respectfully submitted, JAMES H. STEDMAN, Chairman J. FREDERICK KEMP, Treasurer HARRY L. CHASE, Secretary
