sufficient to carry on the work. Miss Lee who is in charge of this room is doing excellent work with these pupils.
The pupils of the Senior High are divided into two classes of three divisions each, the first year pupils come twice each week, and the second year classes come three times each week.
The work taken up in these classes is bench work and wood turning, inlay work, chip carving, applied design, sharpening and taking care of the tools.
As far as possible I try to bring out the originality in the pupils and make them think for themselves, and I find they are fast developing along these lines. It is certainly gratifying to me to note the interest taken in these classes.
We have a light, airy room equipped with 16 benches, one large carpenter's bench, 6 Reed speed lathes, one circular saw, one mitre saw, rabbit plane, also novelty saw and grinder, besides bench tools sufficient to carry on the work. I consider the school as well equipped as any school of its size in the State ; however, this does not mean that we should not advance. I should recommend one or two small engine lathes, one upright drill, two or three machinist vises. With this equipment the older boys of the High School would have a chance to learn something of shop life, and when they did enter a shop they would be of more use to themselves and to their employer.
An evening school should be started for the older boys of the High School who are unable to take the course at any other time, the boys who are out of school would also have a chance to attend these classes. If this were run on a trade school plan the Smith Hughes bill and the state would take care of most of the expenses. So far we haven't done much repair work for the schools, but we have just started to make some cupboards, and to put up some shelves and the small jobs around the High School, much of this work can be taken care of through this department and it is good experience for the boys.
Two linen chests for the Junior Red Caoss are under con- struction.
We plan to have an exhibit of our work at the close of the school year.
At this time I wish to thank the members of the Board of Education for the interest you have taken in this department, and the confidence you have in me as an instructor. I also appreciate the co-operation of the Superintendent and the Prin- cipal of the High School.

record work done with Junior State Agricultural Club Mem- 1 bers. I am pleased to state that Saugus compares favorably with other towns and cities in Essex county regarding the response on the part of pupils to the government appeal for increased production and conservation of food by school pupils. There were in Saugus this year approximately twenty Junior State Market Garden Club Members, thirty-five Junior Canning Club Girls and fifteen Junior Pig Club Members.
A conservative estimate shows that the Pig Club Members produced 4,000 lbs of pork, live weight. Some of the members cared for two and three hogs each.
The Market Garden Club Members produced $5.00 worth of vegetables. The Canning Club Girls canned over 1,000 quarts of fruit and vegetables.
All assistance was given in the Canning Club work by the Domestic Science teachers at the High School and by women who carried on the food conservation activities in the town.
Constact co-operation was given the Junior Club work by the County Club Leaders, Mr. E. R. Howard and Miss Gladys Stratton. Other county and State agricultural authorities who co-operated in the activities in Saugus, were George L. Farley, State Supervisor of the Junior Agricultural Clubs who spoke to about 1,500 Saugus School pupils and gave a stereopticon lecture to the pupils and parents; W. C. Kennedy, Instructor of Animal Husbandry, Essex County Agricultural School, who gave a pig judging demonstration to Saugus Pig Club Members at the farm of Charles Stillings; Ralph H. Gaskill, County Agricultural Agent, and Robert Mitchell, Market Garden Instructor, who gave demonstration lectures to the Junior Market Garden Club Members.
Thanks to the kindness of the school committee in donating the use of the school barge and to other interested persons who furnished automobile transportation many Saugus Junior Club members were given opportunity to attend the Junior Agricul- tural Club Field Day at the Essex County Agricultural School.
I should consider my report very incomplete if I did not com- mend what I consider the difficult and excellent work of the Saugus Food Production Committee, and the able painstaking co-operation of the Saugus Town Treasurer and Clerk. My asso- ciation with these officers has been pleasant in every way. I believe all will agree that the committee's patriotic service in securing the food production supplies recorded under No. 7 of my itemized report was most practical ; and difficult also, when

it is remembered that the committee had absolutely no appro- priated funds to do business with.
Conferences with the Agricultural Advisory Committee regarding proposed operations in my department were very bene- ficial. The practical farmers who comprise this committee gave sound advice and practical support to all important undertak- ings. I regret that the vegetable and pig exhibit which was carefully planned with the support of the Advisory Committee could not be carried to completion.
In concluding my report I will offer the following summary of the agricultural situation in Saugus.
I. There are in Saugus approximately twenty-five farmers who own and subsist by the various branches of agricultural business in which they are individually engaged.
2. There are many more than 100 non-agriculturally employed heads of families who operate a home garden, keep poultry, bees, a hog or two and produce some fruit for pleasure and economy of living.
3. There are many more than 100 housekeepers in town who are interested in the problem of conservation of food, clothing and the proper and economical feeding and maintenance of good health in their families.
4. There are a large number of school pupils who have a natural liking for the cultivation of the soil and other branches of agriculture, who appreciate and benefit by instruction and supervision.
The situation enumerated above exists in practically every community throughout the United States. The grand total of citizens seriously interested in agricultural pursuits is very great. The need and demand on the part of these citizens for a knowl- edge of the best methods of efficient economical agricultural production and conservation is very great. In an attempt to meet this demand, and thereby build up a strong thrifty national agriculture which will assure a sufficient production and an efficient distribution and conservation of food to keep starvation out of the world, the Federal, State, and County government has provided agricultural departments, colleges, ccunty schools, county agricultural agents, farm bureaus, college extension services etc.
Experience has taught that in order for a community to get the satisfactory assistance and co-operation of this great force of agricultural experts there must be a community leader or super- visor stationed in each city or town to act as interlocutor or con-

necting link between the community's agricultural interests and the outside experts.
This need has been so apparent that the federal and state governments agree to refund two-thirds of the expense incurred by towns or cities who install satisfactory agricultural depart- ments in their High Schools with an instructor who serves the school and acts as community leader the year round.
The average yearly expense of these agricultural departments for equipment and instructor after the two-thirds refund has been granted is I believe five or six hundred dollars.
In view of the fact that the Agent of the State Board of Edu- cation favors the establishment in Saugus of at least a two year agricultural high school course after which students may com- plete their agricultural study at the Essex County Agriculturat High School, I would recommend that your committee care- fully consider the situation aad act upon the question of per- manently installing such a department.
Respectfully submitted,
ELLERY E. METCALF,
Agricultural Instructor.
