A careful perusal of what has been published about this work throughout the world, shows Massachusetts to be in the front rank in this country. Medical inspection and hy- gienic supervision have come to stay in our public schools, and they are to play a large part in the future. Legislation is not yet completed along these lines. "In accordance with a law passed in March, 1908, special instruction as to tuber- culosis and its prevention must be given, as a regular branch of study in connection with physiology and hygiene, to all pupils in all schools which are supported wholly or partly by public money, except schools which are maintained · solely for instruction in particular branches."

IPSWICH SCHOOL REPORT
At the beginning of the school year, a general inspect- ion was made of all the pupils in all the grades from 1 to 8 inclusive. This inspection showed the general health to be excellent, but it also showed that about four hundred child- ren had not been vaccinated as required by law. A general vaccination was ordered and was performed in September and October, with the result that at a late inspection all the pupils in grades 1 to 8 inclusive had been duly certified as having been properly vaccinated, orhad on file exemption cards that they had presented physicians' certificate that they were unfit subjects for vaccination. The last previous general vaccination was in 1903. Teachers have been in- structed to admit no pupils in future who have not been duly vaccinated. This is to comply with a law that has
been on the statute books for many years. A law passed a few years ago requires that eyesight and hearing tests shall be made by the teachers under the direction of the superin- tendent. These tests have usually been made at the begin- ning of the school year. At the present writing they have not been made for the school year 1908-9.
The law before referred to requiring instruction in the subject of tuberculosis, also requiring that examinations for diagnosis of the disease whenever suspected, shall be made by the school physician. In order to obtain the best results from medical inspection and examinations in accordance with the various laws, a course of instruction in elementary hygiene should be given by the school physician in all the grades, This would require that several hours each
week be devoted to such instruction. The city of Beverly has followed this plan the past year with excellent results. As there is no other disease in which hygiene plays so large a part, both in its prevention and in its succesful treatment as in tuberculosis, such instruction seems to the writer to be most important and necessary.
At a recent meeting of all the teachers, the school
27
IPSWICH SCHOOL REPORT
physician gave an outline of what in his opinion seemed the best course for the teachers to pursue along these lines. He also furnished each teacher with a brochure issued by the State Board of Health, which imparts valuable information for their guidance. A pamphlet has been issued by the State Board of Education, which is furnished free of cost to teachers. The school physician requests that the Commit- tee furnish the teachers with copies of this pamphlet. and also copies of a small book by Dr. S. A. Knopf entitled, "Tuberculosis of the Masses, and how to combat it." This book is recommended by the State Board of Education, and costs 25 cents per copy.
Asking the Committee's indulgence for this somewhat lengthy report,
Respectfully submitted, GEORGE E, MACARTHUR, School Physician.

IPSWICH SCHOOL REPORT
Music Report.
To the Superintendent of Public Schools.
Ipswich. Mass.
Dear Sir :-
I wish to submit the following report. When elected supervisor of music in the public schools of Ipswich. I found upon beginning my work that the books then in use were taken from different courses. and that they were in poor condition. I asked for new ones: a new course. as I realized that the pupils could do much better work if one was adopted. Part of them were placed in the rooms last year. But now we have the New Educational Music Course. which is proving very satisfactory. The chart has been dropped from the second grade and books are given to every child. And I can safely say that the result is much better than one could have anticipated. In fact. in every grade. I consider that the scholars are making great progress.
Music has been stopped in the High School. as it is im- possible to heat the hall, where we have our singing. It seems that something might be done. In present conditions a pupil can have no music after he graduates from the ninth grade.
I would like to call your attention to the condition of the piano in the Winthrop School. It has only been in use
29

for three years, but is so far gone to pieces that it cannot be tuned. .
I wish to thank all who have assisted me in my work, and assure you I shall endeavor to make it satisfactory to everyone.
Respectfully yours,

Drawing Report.
To the Superintendent of Public Schools.
Ipswich, Mass. Dear Sir :-
The course in drawing in the schools is here given in tabulated form:
Structure: Elements of form ) Type forms Elements of beauty & Geometric figures Structural design 2 Decorative treatment
Enrichment: Color
Elements ornament Conventional
Decorative design
Appearance: Perspective elements - Pictures
Single objects Pictorial drawing Groups
In following the above outline, too much stress cannot be laid on illustrative repetition and drill, as facility in drawing comes only through practice; or I would urge two regular half-hour periods a week in all grades.
This year more attention will be given to object draw- ing. the most difficult to make interesting and consequently the branch most slighted. The power to express ourselves truthfully and accurately with a pencil is a great possession. This latter will be an education to teacher and pupil alike.
My thanks are extended to the superintendent, commit- tee and teachers for their co-operation.

Class Poem.
Commencement days have come at last, The saddest of the years
That we have spent in learning's cause, With mutual joys and fears.
The happy hours we have enjoyed Within these High School walls,
Will come again in pleasant thoughts Where'er our footstep falls.
Life's open path before us lies, Success we all may gain;
Reward, the faithful certain sees; Our motto's truth is plain.
And now with hearts that overflow We bid a sad adieu To those whom memory'll oft recall, In joys and sorrows, too.
Farewell, ye teachers kind and true, And classmates all so dear; May time no rift in friendship make, And joy to you be near.
-EDITH LAURETTA SMITH
