The building is located on the east side of the road leading from South Plymouth to Ship Pond, and op- posite the road leading from the Red House (so called) to the residence of Mr. George R. Briggs.
The School was opened on the first Monday in October, and Miss Amelia B. Holmes, of South Plymouth, was appointed teacher, with seventeen scholars in attendance.
In constructing the road at Cedarville, from the Sandwich road to a point on the road running through Cedarville village, a small triangular piece of land was left adjacent to the school-house lot which should be a part of that lot.
Your Committee recommend that the same be pur- chased, and that the sum of twenty-five (25) dollars be appropriated for that purpose.
The Chiltonville Grammar School has for a num- ber of years suffered for the want of a good and sufficient supply of water. Formerly depending on a cistern, it has for several years been supplied by water brought by the janitor from a South Pond hydrant, half a mile distant from the school-house. Five years ago an unsuccessful attempt was made to obtain a supply by a driven well.
An attempt made during the past year by Mr. Corey, of Duxbury, has proved successful, and an abundant supply of good water is now obtained.
The school-houses in the Town now number thirty, with forty-two teachers and 1,575 scholars.
119
During the year several changes have occurred in the corps of teachers.
Miss Carrie E. Small, the principal of the High School, who for eighteen (18) years had been associ- ated with it as teacher, on January 29th tendered her resignation, to take effect February 17th, to ac- cept the position of principal of the Woodward Academy, at Quincy, Mass., at a much increased salary.
On February 10th, on recommendation of the Superintendent, it was voted to extend to Miss Marietta Kies, formerly of Mt. Holyoke College, an invitation to fill the vacancy. This was accepted, and Miss Kies entered at once upon her duties.
On April 5th the resignation of Miss Anna A. Jones, of the North Intermediate School, was ac- cepted, and Miss Mary A. Aldrich was transferred to that School. Miss Bessie A. Townsend was appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the transfer.
On May 17th Mr E. E. Sherman tendered his resignation as teacher in the Russell Street Grammar School, to accept the position of Superintendent of the Schools of Hopedale, Mendon and Bellingham. This was accepted, and Mr. ]Arthur R. Gledhill was elected July 2d to fill the vacancy.
On August 6th the resignation of Miss Jennie W. Geer was accepted, and Miss Mary P. Anderson, of East Berkshire, Vt., was elected to fill the vacancy.
Owing to the retirement of Miss Mary H. Chandler, of the Russell Street Second Grade
120
School, Miss Mary A. Aldrich was transferred to Russell Street, Miss Katharine A. O'Brien to the North Intermediate, and Miss Lucy F. Hadaway to the Oak Street Primary ; Miss Helen L. Holmes being engaged to take the School at Ellisville
At a meeting of the School Board on September 3d information was received that it would be very acceptable to the Committee of the Marshfield Agri- cultural Society to have the Schools of Plymouth make an exhibit of their school-work. Mr. G. F. Holmes and the Superintendent were appointed a Committee to accede to the request of the Fair Com- mittee ; a very satisfactory exhibit was made, and diplomas were issued to the four Grammar Schools and to the Oak Street Primary.
While the condition of the schoolrooms is gen- erally satisfactory, yet this cannot be said of all. More particularly do we call the attention of the Town to the Sub-Primary School-house at Cold Spring, in which forty-seven scholars are congregated in a room 34 feet long, 17 feet wide and 8 feet 8 inches high, with a stove in one corner of the room, and with no means of ventilation except by the win- dows and door. So apparent is this unhealthy con- dition, that your Committee, to place this matter in the proper light for the consideration of the Town, requested an inspection by the State, and the report we herewith submit :
121
Rufus R. Wade, Esq., Chief Mass. Dist. Police :
SIR-In accordance with your orders, upon request of the School Committee of Plymouth, I have in- spected the Cold Spring Sub-Primary School-house, in said Town; and have the honor to report that I find this to be a small one-story wooden building, containing one schoolroom of the following dimen- sions: Length, 34 feet 3 inches; breadth, 17 feet 3 inches ; height, 8 feet 8 inches-giving 5,122 cubic feet of breathing space; or, divided among the forty- seven pupils and teacher, an average of less than 107 cubic feet per person, less than one-half the proper amount. On entering the room the vitiated condition of the air was very apparent to the senses, there being no means of ventilation. A lime-water test of the air, taken in different parts of the room, showed from 33 to 40 parts of carbonic acid in 10,000. The room is warmed by a box-stove in the northwest corner, and to sufficiently warm the opposite end of the room the heat must be unbearable to those nearest the stove. At the time of inspection a thermometer at the teach- er's desk, and one at the opposite end of the room, showed a difference of nine degrees. To sum up the result of my inspection: The ceiling is too low and the room too small to accommodate but one-half the present number of pupils, and not prop- erly warm to insure either the health or comfort of the occupants, and without any means of ventilation, and not suited for school purposes; and in my opinion it would not be wisdom or economy to attempt to make it so. I would recommend that the schoolroom be abandoned, and a modern, ventilated schoolroom provided.
Respectfully submitted, EDWIN Y. BROWN,
State Inspector of Factories and Public Buildings.
122
We recommend that the Cold Spring Sub-Primary School-house be abandoned at the end of the present school year, or earlier if possible, and a building suit- able to the wants of that locality be erected, and that the sum of three thousand ($3,000) dollars be appro- priated for the purchase of land and the erection of the building.
There remains to the credit of the School Depart- ment for new school-houses the sum of three hundred and fifty-three dollars and ninety-six cents ($353.96). An extra appropriation will therefore be necessary to carry into effect the vote of the Town to provide ac- commodations for the School on School Street, and for which the lot of land on Russell Street was placed at the disposal of the Committee.
With the experience of the past two years, we have grave doubts as to the wisdom of erecting a building for the exclusive use of that School.
The number of scholars is constantly increasing, and there are now in the Russell Street building too many scholars.
We are of the opinion that a two-room building is necessary, and recommend an additional appropriation of five thousand ($5,000) dollars.
The cases of truancy brought to the attention of the Committee are few, and have been promptly and satisfactorily attended to by the truant officer, Capt. Joseph W. Hunting.
123
With the present system of free school-books and supplies, the danger of the spreading of any conta- gious disease is increased, and great care is necessary to prevent it. This has also been faithfully attended to by Capt. Hunting and appreciated by the Com- mittee.
Death has again entered our educational circle, and removed from our midst an honored and respected citizen of our Town-one who for the greater part of his life has been a resident, and prominently identified with the cause of education. His loss we deeply feel and deplore.
On Sunday, the 25th day of November, our hon- ored and respected Superintendent, Mr. Charles Burton, was suddenly summoned to his eternal home. Although he had attained the ripe old age of nearly four score years, he was still active, and continued to the day of his death deeply interested in the schools of Plymouth. Funeral services were held at his late residence on Wednesday, November 28th, at I o'clock p. m., followed by a public service at 2 o'clock p. m., at the Church of the Pilgrimage, attended by the citizens and scholars from the various schools.
At a meeting of the Committee on Monday even- ing, November 26th, called to take action on the death of Mr. Burton, the following resolutions were passed :
Resolved : That by the death of Mr. Burton the schools of Plymouth have lost a faithful and devoted Superintendent : one who, by his rare breadth of
124
mind, his cultured intellect, his varied knowledge, his courteous manners and his unceasing interest in the cause of education, has impressed upon the Town an influence which will never end.
Resolved: That the School Committee realize that in their future meetings they will keenly miss Mr. Burton's ready co-operation, his valuable suggestions and his readiness to sacrifice his own personality for the general good.
Resolved : That, in remembrance of the intercourse of many years, the Committee offer to Mrs. Burton and other relatives their heartfelt sympathy in this hour of sorrow.
No heartier tribute could have been given to Mr. Burton than the cordial and efficient manner in which the teachers of the Public Schools showed that, having been so long and faithfully guided, they could carry on the work for a time without their leader.
No Superintendent has as yet been appointed in Mr. Burton's place, the Committee having been le- gally advised to wait for the authority of the Town to make such appointment.
Respectfully submitted,
