Report of the School Physician.


To the School Committee :---


The plan for medical inspection of schools as now required by law, has, it seems to me, much to commend it. If any criticism is to be made in the law it is that it is not specific enough as to just what the medical inspector's duties are; but has left that phase of the subject to the local health and school authorities. Your local in- spector was authorized by the school committee to adopt


28


IPSWICH SCHOOL REPORT


such a plan as in his judgment seemed wise. Attention was first given to sanitary conditions of the various school bnild- ings and premises. These were found to be in the main in excellent condition. Some improvements were suggested by the inspector, which were carried out by the committee.


The only contagious disease found in the schools was whooping cough, which was epidemic last fall. A number of children found to be suffering from it were sent home un- til the contagious period was passed. There were also found a number of cases of impetigo, several of eczema, and a few of parasitic origin, all of which were ordered out for treatment.


Much good has resulted from the tests made for defect- ive eyesight and hearing. Many children's eyesight has been improved by proper fitting glasses, and several cases of defective hearing have been improved by removal of adenoid growths, which were the cause of the deafness. The benefit to these two classes alone, derective eyesight and hearing, would justify the whole cost for medical inspection, if there were no other arguments in its favor. But taken in its broad- est sense, the work of the medical inspector should be to ap- ply intelligently that ounce of prevention, the value of which cannot be estimated by any weight of cures.


Respectfully submitted, George E. MacArthur. Ipswich, January 25th, 1908.

Report of the Truant Officer.


-


To the Superintendent of Schools,


Dear Sir :-


I am pleased to report that I made forty-four calls on absent pupils during the year 1907. I found some absent as truants, some for want of proper clothing, and some for sickness. Most of these returned to school.


I am grateful to the school board, the superintendent, and teachers for support.


Respectfully,


Warren Boynton

Class Poem.


The four short years have sped their course Since first we met together here; As Strangers then, as dear friends now; But parting time is drawing near. We've worked together all these years, Our joys and griefs we've shared as friends; Fond mem'ries of those hours well spent Will cheer our paths, where'er their ends.


For some the sky is bright and clear; And some may find it dark and chill; But courage take, and trust in God, He leads the way, we'll follow still. How swiftly have the seasons passed! Life's higher school awaits us now; And we may view our work with joy When in the West our sun is low.


And when our work here is complete, And all life's vict'ries we have won, Though we in numbers are but few May we receive the praise, "Well done!" Now, teachers, classmates, all farewell; With thanks for kindness manifold, Through life thy honor we will strive, Dear Nineteen-Seven to uphold.
