REPORT OF GARDEN INSPECTOR
MR. WM. F. SIMS, Supt. of Schools, Saugus, Massachusetts.
Dear Sir:
At your invitation I have visited the homes of the one hundred and thirty seven pupils in Town having home gardens. Fifty-six of these pupils carried through their undertaking. Only pupils of the Felton, Roby, Ballard and Armitage schools comprised this list.
In making this report of my inspection of each garden, I have taken as a basis these four items: Kinds of vegetables in the garden, condition of the garden at time of inspection and age of the pupil owning the garden. Ample allowance was made in giving the per cent. on the condition of the garden at time of inspection for early vegetables grown and harvested before the inspection. One hundred per cent. was the highest mark given on the condition of a garden.
Weather conditions this season have been very unfav- orable to many kinds of vegetables, especially corn and potatoes. These two vegetables have formed the greater part of the annual exhibit in previous years. My inspec- tion showed that very few gardens contained these two vegetables this season. Therefore owing to the poor season and the necessarily small number of exhibitors it
23
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
1916]
was thought best not to hold the annual vegetable and flower exhibit.
Practically the same situation was encountered last year when the pupils reported that their potatoes and many other vegetables had been ruined by the excessive rainfall.
As it has been decided this year to award prizes to those having the best gardens, in place of the usual premiums given at the annual vegetable and flower exhibit, I here- with submit the report of my inspection together with the list of prize winners and those deserving honorable men- tion.
Respectfully submitted,
ELLERY C. METCALF,
SAUGUS, Sept. 25, 1916.

Margaret Hastings of the Felton School had excellent specimens of popcorn and summer asparagus in her garden. Benjamin Fullerton of the Roby School had several peanut vines that were growing luxuriantly at the time of the garden inspection and gave promise of maturing before cold weather.
THE FINANCE COMMITTEE'S REPORT
ARTICLE 21. To see if the Town will instruct the school committee to combine the offices of superintendent of schools and principal of the high school and thus cause a saving of nearly $2,000 per annum.
Under the above article it was voted at the last Town meeting that the matter be referred to the finance com- mittee and it to report at this meeting, and upon which the finance committee report as follows:
The committee is unanimous in its opinion that it would be unwise and, under present conditions, impossible from an efficiency standpoint to combine the positions of super- intendent of schools and principal of the high school in the town of Saugus.
Only seven towns in the Commonwealth at present com- bine the two positions, indicating that this system of man- agement does not obtain to any extent, and the committee is informed that in these towns this method does not give general satisfaction.
In every case where the two positions are combined the number of school children and school buildings is much less than in Saugus. Moreover the school buildings are com- paratively close together and more easily accessible than in our Town.
In the event of a merger of the two positions it would be necessary to employ an assistant principal in the high school, for there must of necessity become one in authority in the high school in the absence of the person holding the two positions. The saving would be problematical and, in any event, not substantial.
The committee is of the opinion that conditions in Saugus require a man to give his whole time to the office of super- intendent of schools.
25
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
1916]
The number of pupils in this Town is greater, with one exception, than that of any town in the State in proportion to the population.
The present enrollment is 2,239 and the present number of school buildings is 14; furthermore, the school buildings by no means are near together.
In short, in order to combine the above-named offices the following conditions ought to exist:
1. Reasonably small number of school buildings.
2. School buildings within a reasonable radius and easily accessible.
3. Reasonably small number of pupils.
The committee is of the opinion that these conditions do not prevail in Saugus, and therefore, do not recommend combining the two offices.
Respectfully submitted,
F. M. HILL,
For the Committee.
ARTICLE 22. To see if the Town will instruct the school committee to abolish the three coaching teachers and thus cause a saving of $1,800 per annum.
Under the above article and in accordance with the vote of the Town, the finance committee submits the following report:
The purpose of the coaching teachers is to assist delinquent pupils who, from sickness or some other cause, are unable to keep up with the rest of the class.
In towns where the classes are small and therefore more time can be given to delinquent pupils, the need of coaching teachers is not so apparent. In Saugus, where the classes are large, it is impossible for a teacher to give much, if any, individual instruction, and in many cases pupils would fail of promotion unless they receive individual instruction and assistance.
During the past year 650 pupils have received additional help and assistance from the coaching teachers.
The committee finds that the coaching teachers are doing a necessary work, and by reason of their help and
31
26
TOWN DOCUMENTS
[Dec. 31
assistance a substantial number of pupils are able to con- tinue with their class.
For the above reasons, the committee are of the opinion that as long as the present conditions continue the coach- ing teachers should be retained.
Respectfully submitted, F. M. HILL, For the Committee.
ARTICLE 23. To see if the Town will instruct the school committee to abolish the teacher of manual training and thus cause a saving of $1200, per annum.
Under the above article and in accordance with the vote of the Town, the finance committee submits the following report :
The course in manual training is practical and valuable to the boy in that it suggests to him certain lines of endeavor which cannot be obtained in any other way or from any other source in the school curriculum. He is taught the use of tools which can only prove valuable to him later in life, and if he determines upon learning a trade as his means of livelihood the course in manual training supplies a good foundation upon which to do so.
The boy who does not intend to learn a trade is also ben- efited because of this training and doubtless will be able to put to advantage what he has learned, although of course not to the extent as the boy who makes a trade his life's work.
In the opinion of the committee, not enough time is devoted to this course, but even in the limited time per- mitted much of real value is acquired.
Competition of the present day is keen in all lines of en- deavor and none the less so in industrial and mechanical lines. The boys of our schools ought not to be deprived of any opportunity which would give them the ability to successfully compete with boys in other towns and cities in which the course in manual training is considered an im- portant factor in the preparation of the average boy to pursue his life's work successfully.
The course in our schools is given by a practical man who instills in the minds of the boys the benefits to be obtained
27
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
1916]
from the course and the committee finds substantial progress is being made.
For the above reasons the committee is of the opinion that the course in manual training ought to be retained.
Respectfully submitted, F. M. HILL,
For the Committee.
ARTICLE 24. To see if the Town will instruct the school committee to abolish the teacher of domestic science, and thus cause a saving of $600 per annum.
Under the above article, and in accordance with the vote of the Town, the finance committee submits the fol- lowing report.
A course in domestic science is given in practically all towns of the Commonwealth of the size of Saugus.
In the course as given in Saugus the girls are taught sewing and are able to make and do make simple and nec- essary articles of wearing apparel. Practical instruction along this line is afforded and the committee finds the benefits obtained therefore are valuable and useful, and in many cases assistance is rendered to the mother and family at home.
The value of certain foods and the preparation of the same is also taught the girls in a practical and efficient manner and doubtless is or ought to be of benefit to the family of which the girl is a part.
In the high school the girls manage and supply a lunch counter where good food is provided at a minimum cost. This lunch counter is self-supporting.
The proper preparation and selection of food is certainly very desirable and the course in domestic science aims to furnish, and, in the opinion of the committee, does furnish, the necessary instruction.
When the course becomes fully established it is con- templated that economies and proper care of the homes shall be included. This, certainly, would be desirable, as proper care of the home, having in mind suitable sanitation and adequate ventilation, is necessary for the health of the entire family.

For the reasons stated, the committee feels that the course in domestic science is of substantial value and ought to be retained.
