to the attractivenes of the assembly hall was the placing of several yards of burlap on the wall of the assembly hall back of the platform, to cover the disfigurements caused by the paint crack- ing and scaling. Cupboards were also constructed in the Manual Training room so that every boy might have a locker for his work.
All of the lumber used in Manual Training is resawed ; i. e. thick stock is purchased and then sawed in halves. Of course this necessitates a great deal of extra work for the teacher, but incidentally it reduces the cost of stock.
We are always grateful for any additions to the Manual Train- ing rooms, and are glad to note the additions of two fire extin- guishers. Now we would appreciate the installations of a machinists lathe and upright drill. This not only would act as an incentive in machine shop work, but would help on work to repair. Another thing which is absolutely necessary, is a new flight of front steps for the building. Constant use by hundreds of boys combined with the elements has entirely worn out the old steps. Neglect of this important duty may endanger the limbs of many people.
Manual Training perhaps more than any other subject trains all the faculties of the child; physical, mental, moral. It tries to avoid all positions and movements not conducive to health. Mentally it produces a more thoughtful, more self-reliant, more accurate and alert mind. Both the method of its teaching and the motive which inspires the making of something worth while tend to do this. Every model is calculated to arouse and sustain interest because there is an attractive and worthy end in view which the boy hopes to reach and can reach only by his own personal effort. That is what we are aiming for. To accomplish all these things it is important that the teacher use a great deal of tact. Especially in Manual Training it is very important that he possess that quick insight and ready sympathy that discerns difficulties before they arise; he must recognize honest effort even though good visible results are not always in evidence. His personal interest in each boy promotes a spirit of cheerful- ness and goodwill.
Respectfully submitted, N. B. CORTHELL, Director. ELEANOR W. LEE.

Report of Supervisor of Music
Superintendent J. W. Lambert :
I herewith submit my first report as Music Supervisor in the public schools of Saugus,
There was a time when music was considered a luxury rather than a necessity in the school curriculum. Then people began to realize that the child's musical training did not stop when he left school but was continued in his community. This advanced training came in the form of choir, orchestra and choral society. In order that the child might benefit from his early training it was necessary to follow a schedule in the schools. At first the outlines covered all the grades from the primary through high school. Authorities discovered that a large per cent. of children stopped their school life at the end of the grammar grades. For this reason the mechanics of music have been put in the lower grades, thus allowing time for song singing and appreciation of music in the higher.
This year has been spent thus far on mechanical work in the first six grades.
In the primary grades a large number of rote songs has been taught. Special stress has been laid upon tone production and sight reading. In connection with the last mentioned subject I wish to say the children assume all responsibility. If a mistake is made by one child, another pupil corrects. The teacher assists only as a last resort. As Mr. T. P. Giddings of Minne- apolis says, "Teach if cornered, otherwise let the children learn."
At Christmas time an assembly was held in each building for the purpose of singing carols. Three carols were memorized. Next year these will be reviewed and one new one learned.
Teachers and pupils have been handicapped by lack of material. In music, as in reading, there should be several text books, for reference and variety. The one text book in the schools was in such condition as to be almost of no use. This has been partly remedied by the purchase of new material for the third, fifth and sixth grades.
The second and fourth grades are still to be equipped, the second grade is at present making use of an old text book with very fine print. Like the primers in reading, so in music should these first books be in large print and very little on the page.
In the Ballard Junior High the work has been wholly chorus

singing. The voices are being graded in order to start Glee Club work in a short time.
The able assistance of the grade teachers and the enthusiasm of the pupils has made progress rapid and smooth.
Respectfully yours, LAURA E. CRAM.
Report of Supervisor of Penmanship
SAUGUS, MASS., January 17, 1921.
10 Mr. J. W. Lambert, Superintendent of Schools :
The Palmer Method of writing has been established in all the grades.
This method when mastered enables the pupils to write legibly, rapidly and easily. Pupils are able to write for a considerable length of time without any strain.
Good writing is always in demand and it is our aim to send good writers from our schools.
Good writing is based on good position and muscular move- ment. Under the Palmer method the pupils keep healthful posture, straight spinal columns, expanded lungs, and there is no eye strain.
4
The foundations are laid in the first grade. The children are taught to roll the arms on the muscles. Ovals and simple drills for letters and words are practiced. Constant repetition of these drills gives the child perfect control of the muscle. Then muscular movement writing becomes a habit. The work of each grade is closely connected with that of the preceding grade.
We have only had four months of the work. Much time has been devoted to breaking habits already formed.
At the end of the school year there should be a great improve- ment in the writing. It can be seen now in many cases.
The Women's Civic League of Cliftondale has offered prizes for writing. These prizes are to be given at the end of the school year. This is a great incentive for the pupils.
I appreciate the efforts of the Civic League to stimulate the interest among the children.
Weekly visits are made to all schools. The territory is large and sometimes difficult to cover. The splendid spirit shown by teachers and pupils has made every visit pleasant and any diffi- culties encountered seem trifles.

The pupils are deeply interested in the work and the time allotted for each class passes too quickly.
I wish to thank you, Mr. Lambert, and the teachers for hearty co-operation in the work.

Report of Supervisor of Drawing
Mr. Lambert, Superintendent of Public Schools, Saugus, Mass. :
DEAR MR. LAMBERT, - Assuming office as supervisor of drawing of the public schools of Saugus in September, 1920, my aim in the drawing and manual arts in the schools is to develop visual discriminations, memory and imagination, together with an ability to develop the power of drawing freely and fluently what they know or ought to know of nature and life. In this work, as in all educational work, the pupils are made to think clearly and express themselves well.
In this particular course the thinking must be in terms of vision, light, color, positions, directions, distances or measures, proportions and shapes.
The knowledge and ideas to be expressed by drawing and coloring are in tone relations, and in space relations. The terms of expression are in lines of spots color. The aim is to induce the pupil to think of nature and life, in lines and spots of color, and put these lines and spots on paper, just as in other courses of study they think in words and forms of language, using the words in speech and in writing. The knowledge and ideas which are developed and expressed in drawing, are hardly less important than those which are expressed by language. Many ideas which we try to express in speech and by writing can be much better expressed. more definitely and more clearly by drawing and painting.
The aim in manual training which in the drawing department is designated as book binding and logically follows the work in card board construction, is of an elementary character, develop- ing individual initiative, and the ability to plan and to complete simple constructive work.
Respectfully submitted, JOSEPHINE F. MALONE, Supervisor of Drawing.
