FREE BOOKS AND SUPPLIES.
In accordance with the legislation of 1884, the schools have been absolutely free of necessary expense to the pupils attend- ing them. At present the A and B Grammar classes have been supplied with histories, the C and D Grammar classes with arithmetics and geographies, and nearly all the High School pupils with the books now in use. The neccessary purchases of books will not diminish during the coming two years. I am
29
unable to say to what extent, if any, the attendance upon our schools has been increased by the free-book legislation. Before its enactment, we took pride in the fact that with exceeding few exceptions the children of school ages were regular attend- ants upon school. The books are well cared for, and a wise economy has governed the distribution of supplies.
TRAINING CLASS.
The examination for admission to this place took place on Sept. 12. The conditions of admission were that applicants should be at least eighteen years of age, have completed a high- school course, or its equivalent, and agree to remain at their work for two full terms. I have uniformly advised the young ladies of Quincy to attend the Bridgewater Normal School, if possible. The experience of successive years makes it plain that, while our Training-class girls may possess a familiarity with the everyday work of the school-room, and an ability to meet its re- quirements not possessed by the graduate fresh from the Normal School, the latter has secured a breadth and strength which will eventually secure for her the greater degree of suc- cess. If the Normal School course is first completed, a shorter connection with the Training class, in addition thereto, will pro- duce better teachers than will be produced by either alone. ,,a

I have not deemed it necessary in this report to discuss one after another the English branches which constitute the chief work of the elementary schools. We have held steadily to the purpose of training our pupils to read intelligently, to write a good hand, and to cipher with accuracy and rapidity. The char- acter of the instruction in history and geography has been well set forth in former reports. The usual financial statement will give full information in regard to the expenditures of the year. When town expenses are under discussion, the large proportion thereof chargeable to schools is often remarked. It is true that the town is generous in their support. Every good thing costs money ; cheap schools are always poor schools. The schools have been liberally maintained, but maintained without extrava- gance. And what town interest is there which can compare with them in importance? Good highways, public parks, libra- ries, are desirable, but they and all other town interests must always be secondary to the education of its children. We occa- sionally hear language which would indicate that the money voted for schools is not expended for the direct benefit of our own children and ourselves : in the speaker's mind it seems to go to the children of aliens and strangers - to people remote and unknown to us. We might as well have the same feeling in regard to money spent for food for our own mouths, or cloth- ing for our own wearing. Such language is rare, however. So long as the schools commend themselves to the confidence of the town, adequate support will not be found wanting. I am impelled to record at this time my appreciation of the constant courtesy of the Committee and to specially acknowledge the kindness of Committee, teachers, and pupils during a recent enforced absence from school duties.

REMARKS.
Dimensions of rooms, floor areas, and cubic contents are ex- pressed in feet and tenths of feet.
The floor space for each pupil should not be less than twenty square feet. The cubic space for each pupil should not be less than three hundred cubic feet. The area of windows to floor space should be as one to six ; 17 would indicate the proper ratio of one to the other. Owing to irregularities in the shape of some rooms, the floor and cubic space will be found to differ, while the dimensions are the same.
