ANNUAL SCHOOL REPORT
In regard to athletics, the outstanding feature last year was the winning of the championship of the Central Massa- chusetts Basketball League by the girls' team under the guidance of Miss Emeline Amidon. The trophy now rests in the Grange Hall.
"The Rambler," our annual high school publication, again made its appearance under the supervision of Miss Margaret Sears.
Our annual play presented this fall for the benefit of athletics was a splendid success. Great credit goes to Miss Eleanor Knox, a new member of our faculty, who coached the play.
As a result of moving the science room to part of the dining hall the science department has more space and is now able to function better, although the heating and venti- lation system is still unsatisfactory. The room also is a help in accommodating other large classes that were a problem last year. The old science room has been redecorated and fills a long desired want as a girls' room.
I wish to acknowledge with thanks the support of the parents, school committee, superintendent and teachers.
Respectfully submitted,
EDMUND D. KELSEY.

TOWN OF RUTLAND
REPORT OF HOUSEHOLD ARTS SUPERVISOR
To the Superintendent of Schools :
I am presenting herewith my first report as Supervisor of Household Arts at the Rutland High School.
During these first few months of this school term I have been endeavoring to train the girls in the foods class to choose food wisely and to plan well balanced meals, so they shall get the maximum nutrition at the minimum cost. With reduced incomes in many homes this has been a matter of buying health. I have aimed to have them prepare food to be palatable with nothing lost in the cooking; to serve it in ways that strengthen the family morale, and to form good habits of work, and so conserve energy.
Much consideration has been given to the school lunch. The entire student body was addressed by a nutrition expert from the State Department who stressed the importance of the school lunch and its relation to the rest of the day's diet.
The work of the Home Economics department for the second term of the school year will be devoted to classes in clothing.
The aims in clothing, in addition to teaching skill in the underlying construction processes, will be to teach the girls to make clothing for much less than it can be purchased, to care for and repair clothing, and to make over clothing, and so to get the greatest value from each garment.
Our Home Economics class has had an opportunity to be of direct service to the school this year. This class has aided in the planning and redecoration of a room in the base- ment of the building to be used as a recreation room for the girls. The girls in this class have made attractive curtains for the windows and are planning to make table covers and pillows which will add to the appearance and comfort of the room.
Curtains for the new Science Room have also been made by members of this class.
The number of pupils enrolled in the Household Arts Course is the largest since the course has been offered. I sincerely hope that in the future every girl will take advan- tage of the opportunities offered in this practical course.
I feel that my responsibility as a teacher of Home Eco-
11

nomics is to train the girls in my care so that they will be capable of establishing ideal homes.
I wish to express my appreciation for the kindness and co-operation of all with whom I have come in contact in my .
work.
Respectfully submitted,
ELEANOR E. KNOX.
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
To the Superintendent of Schools :
In November a clinic conducted by the State with the co-operation of the local Board of Health was held in the school for the detection of tuberculosis in the school child. Examinations and X-rays were given by doctors and a tech- nician connected with the clinic. The following is the sum- mary of the results :
Number children tuberculin tested 160
Number children reacting to test 49
Number children X-rayed 60
Number children referred for examination 21
Number children examined 21
Adult-type tuberculosis suspects 1
Childhood-type tuberculosis 4
Childhood-type tuberculosis suspects 11
Contact negatives 4
The final examinations of the children in the Chadwick clinic were given in June as the clinic was completed at that time.
The following is the report of the findings :
Number of children recommended for re-examination 4
Number of children re-examined. 4
Number of children X-rayed 1 Number of children improved 4
Number of children discharged from clinic 1
A clinic for the examination of children who were three years retarded was held in the spring. There were five children examined at this time, and recommendations as far as possible are being carried out.
A pre-school clinic was held in June in co-operation with the Parent-Teacher Association. There were 15 children examined and vaccinated. When Dr. Knowlton made the
.

TOWN OF RUTLAND
physical examinations this fall it was gratifying to find that some of the defects found in June had been corrected. This is the purpose of the pre-school clinic, to have the child physically fit when he enters school in September.
Two children were at the Sterling Health Camp this summer for a month. Camp life under the care of the South- ern Worcester County Health Society had a splendid effect on these children for they are much better prepared to attend school when they return.
The Dental clinic which is taken care of by the Parent- Teacher Association was held again this spring. The follow- ing is a report of the work done :
Number of children receiving dental care 99
Number of cleanings 93
Number temporary fillings 56
Number permanent fillings
131
Extractions of temporary teeth 59
Extractions of permanent teeth 31
The local Chapter of the American Red Cross furnished tooth brushes after the clinic and these were sold to the children at minimum cost.
The following cases of communicable diseases were re- ported :
Measles . 35 Chicken Pox .. 21
May Day was observed by a fine program prepared by the teachers. There were games and exercises and demon- strations of daily work in the class-room. The program was well attended and enjoyed.
The annual physical examination was made by Dr. Knowlton and the usual weighing and measuring has been done. Some of the defects noted a year ago have been cor- rected but we still find many receiving no attention. Failure to correct physical defects may seriously injure the chances of success in school. I have made 81 class-room inspections and 27 home visits.
I wish to thank the parents, teachers and pupils for their help and cooperation. I especially thank the Parent-Teacher Association for its service at the time of the pre-school and the dental clinics.
Respectfully submitted,
AMREAU B. BLOOD, R. N.

ANNUAL SCHOOL REPORT
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
To the Superintendent of Schools :
The following is the report of the medical examination in the Rutland Schools for 1934. Details will be found in the report of the Nurse.
The Pre-School Clinic was held and parents notified of any defects which might interfere with the future school work of the child.
The annual complete physical examination revealed 533 defects in the entire school population. Suitable notices were sent to the parents and there appears to be cooperation in efforts to have them corrected.
I wish to thank the Superintendent, School Nurse and teachers for their help.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM T. KNOWLTON, M. D.
