Beginning with the fall term the classes as a whole are doing good work, some exceptionally so. The latter conditions may be attribued to one or both of the following causes : First, a class composed largely of musical children, and second a teacher who has a natural ability for teaching music in the grades. In regard to further evidences of success, the departmental sys- tem has proved its efficiency in one school, and in this particu- lar case where the music is in charge of one teacher, there is a marked uniformity in the work.


The new music books which were purchased in September, have been placed in the grades from the third to the sixth inclusive according to the previous ability of the classes. The books contain well arranged material suitable for all the branches of public school music which are taught in the grades. I find the new course of study has been carefully looked over, and it


125

will be of considerable help to each teacher. The outline has been so arranged to give each grade a definite proportion of the whole to be done in music. The new lesson slips have met with approval everywhere. In placing the lesson on the board, there is danger that it might be erased, and other schemes have been somewhat undesirable. Now the advanced lesson is written down upon two printed slips, one kept at the desk, and the other by the special teacher.


In the lowest grades the progress was retarded for a time on account of sickness among many of the little ones, but the work has continued along the lines of intervale studies and easy exercises upon the chart, or written upon the blackboard in the different keys. One or two rote songs are always assigned at a lesson ; and on special occasions, such as Christmas, the work consists almost entirely of songs.


In the other grades we endeavor to teach the fundamental principles of music reading. These principles are then applied by means of exercises and songs. Writing music from dictation has been given considerable attention. The classes show a great deal of interest in this branch of the work, and the results have been satisfactory.


In the higher grammar grades we encounter a familiar diffi- culty, namely,-the voices of the boys undergoing a change. This renders them incapable, for a time, of singing any particular part. Their range becomes limited and they commence to lose confidence in themselves. However, we have been very fortunate within the past few months, in finding a number of boys, whose voices have so far changed that we have been enabled to form a four-part chorus. By combining the seventh and eighth grades in one of the grammar buildings, during the music period, this arrangement has become very effective.


The High School is being treated as a Choral Society, and good work is being done. At this stage, the singers may put into practice the instruction that they have received in the grades. Further technical training is given to individual students as they require it ; as, for instance, to those who desire to take examina- tions in music for entrance to the higher schools.

TOWN DOCUMENTS.


[Jan. 31


There has been some mention made of introducing some of the " grammar of music " into the High School course. An elective course in elementary harmony would give some a chance to study a very valuable and interesting side of music. Many schools have adopted it and some which have not expect to do so in the near future. The music in the High School has been greatly helped by the services of a regular pianist. Few realize the value of having good accompaniments for the choruses, such as will tend to help rather than hinder.


The general plan of the music in the schools has been some little time in operation, and all the teachers are now well acquainted with the work and the methods of procedure. In closing I desire to sincerely thank them for their kind co-opera- tion, also the school officials and Superintendent for their interest and helpful advice.


Yours respectfully,


MABELLE B. PROCTOR.


Report of the Supervisor of Drawing.


DEAR SIR,-The drawing in all the grades is grouped in four main subjects, nature, construction, representation and design. In the spring and fall nature drawing is studied from flowers, grasses, sedges and fruit sprays, vegetables and trees. Various mediums are used such as colored crayon, ink and water color.


Freehand paper cutting is another means of expression which has proved most valuable in training the eye and hand.


In November and December construction work is given in each grade. Simple objects are made, useful in play or for Christmas. This gives ample practice in measuring and planning. The use of T square, triangles and freehand lettering is taught.


. In January, February and March, Representative or Pictorial drawing and composition are studied from objects and groups of objects. The aim of Pictorial drawing in the primary grades is to lead the pupil to acquire facility in graphic expression.


127


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


1908]


The subject matter being determined largely by other school studies, as language, history, stories, etc. In the intermediate and grammar grades the pupils enjoy composing a group as a subject for drawing. If it may be a group to illustrate some point in language, geography, rhysics, history, or handicraft, it is attempted.


In April, May and June the subject under consideration is Design. Drawings are made from buds, leaves, flowers-and applied to designs for simple ornaments-for any object in the child's world-for useful objects which may be constructed and designs for objects involving weaving, printing or stenciling.


In the High School the courses are Fine Arts Course (Representation) and Construction (Mechanical Drawing). The Fine Arts Course comprises Freehand Drawing in light and shade, color, theory and practice, Design-theory of design ; applied and constructive design.


The Mechanical Drawing course comprises-Geometrical problems, Projection-through intersection of solids-Freehand Lettering-Machine drawings from models or Architectural draw- ings from copy and plans of simple objects to be worked out in the Manual Training room.


Manual Training having been introduced in the High School, this year the Mechanical drawing holds an important place in the curriculum. For this work, each pupil is provided with all necessary materials for the best quality. The classes being very large, twelve handsome new drawing tables have been added- which have helped greatly in the accomplishment of good work.


There will be an exhibition of drawings the last of June in the Phillips School, when all who are interested will have an opportunity to view the work of the pupils.


Respectfully submitted,


MABEL E. LOWREY,


Supervisor of Drawing.

Report of Instructor in Manual Training,


MR. WILLIAM J. PELO, Supt. of Schools, Swampscott, Mass.


DEAR SIR,-The Manual Training Department was inaugu- rated on September 17, 1907. The room is situated in the base- ment of the Phillips School and is well lighted.


Although rather small it has been admirably adapted for the work of classes of the present size. There are twelve car- penters' benches equipped with the necessary tools for efficient work. Each bench has a drawer for tools and a private one for each pupil, fitted with lock and key. In addition to the tools on each bench, there is an excellent assortment of tools for general use. If this supply could be increased by the addition of a few duplicates the work would be greatly facilitated.


Besides the benches, there are four lathes and a grindstone, driven by a two-horse power electric motor. The lathes do not run as quietly as one would wish. While this does not interfere with the work of this department, it certainly is a nuisance to those who are working in the room above. I hope that in a short time this noise may be lessened. Each lathe has the full complement of fittings and tools required to execute wood-turn- ing and pattern making.


With the exception of benches, lathes, and tools, the room when opened, was bare of furnishings. This has been changed somewhat through the work of the boys. In one corner of the room a lecture platform has been built, and on this are twelve desk chairs so that pupils can take notes, while the teacher is demonstrating. A cupboard for bench keys, shelves for lathe tools, a shelf for special tools, and a blackboard have also been added. It is intended that the boys shall build pigeon holes and cupboards for the work which may be in procees of construction.


Course of Study.


It is intended that the course of study shall give each pupil a thorough training in the elements of carpentry, wood carving,


129


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.


1908]


wood turning, and pattern making ; an intelligent knowledge of the tools used, and a knowledge of timber, trees, and the properties and qualities of lumber.


Thus pupils who enter the Lawrence Scientific School, Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, or any technical school will be able to anticipate this work and thereby gain time for the more advanced courses. If pupils do not wish to enter such institutions or follow up the training by entering the industrial walks of life, they can in this work secure valuable educational training. The hand and eye are simultaneously developed and through them large tracts of brain cells, which otherwise would remain dormant, receive their first impulse for growth and development.


The training develops application, accuracy, self-reliance and industry. It awakens ambitions and opens a wide field for suc- cess and usefulness. It demands patience and stimulates a high order of mental activity.


While the principles involved are covered by the pupils of each year, the models requiring those principles are different. The work is so arranged that no one is taxed beyond his powers, while those who work rapidly are given the opportunity to do more advanced work, thus calling forth their best efforts. As the educational value of the exercises depends mainly upon the amount of careful thought engendered, no task is repeated merely for the sake of gaining skill. When the difficulties of a given process have been fairly mastered, a new problem is given. Boys of good ability do, however, acquire considerable skill, for the construction of each model involves the repetition of some preceding process. The quality of the work, that is mastery of correct methods and formation of good habits, is considered much more important than the amount of work executed. Every effort will be put forth to adapt the course to the special needs of individuals. One boy has made several pieces of scientific apparatus, while another has made the form about which he intends to mould a violin. Attention is given to constructive and also to applied design.


The manual training teacher is anxious to correlate his work with that of the art teacher so that the work of his department


130


TOWN DOCUMENTS.


[Jan. 31


will give the pupil a better appreciation of the use and value of design. If the pupils were taught mechanical drawing before entering the manual training department, they would be able to understand the working drawings and so save the teacher a great deal of time, devoted to explanation of plans, etc.


The first four months of the school year have been devoted entirely to bench work. On January 16, 1908, the first lessons in wood-turning were given. From that date until the end of the year the freshmen will spend about one-fourth of their time on lathe work, the sophomores one-third, and the juniors one- half. Special attention will be devoted to the staining, shellac- ing, polishing and finishing of completed work.


During the two weeks previous to the Christmas vacation, a digression was made from the regular work of the course, and pupils were allowed to make Christmas presents.


Mr. Congdon, Chairman of the School Committee, has in many ways shown his deep interest in this department.


I am very grateful for this and the valuable suggestions he has given.


The following gentlemen have visited this department : Messrs. Sprague, Congdon, Glidden, Hastings, Frazier, Pease, Hatch, Hardy and Rankin.


Yours sincerely,


WILLIAM FIRTH EASTWOOD.

During the latter part of November and the early part of December, measles were epidemic in our schools, although no cases were found in an active stage attending school.


A suggestion which I would make, is that the teachers lay more stress on the cleanly condition of children's hands and teeth, and if opportunity arises to notify parents that the hands and teeth should be kept clean as many contagious diseases emanate from decayed teeth and dirty hands.

Report of Truant Officer.


SWAMPSCOTT, MASS., January 23, 1908.


To the Superintendent of Schools :


DEAR SIR,-I beg leave to submit the following report as Truant Officer of the Town of Swampscott for the year ending January 31, 1908. Whole number of complaints received, 93. Calls made in investigating said complaints, 115 Cases of truancy, 14; cases of unexcused absence, 79; truancy, first offense, 14; truancy, second offense, 6 and truancy, third offense, 2.


During the year your Truant Officer has found that fully 90 per cent. of the unexcused absence is caused not by the children willfully staying away from the session of the school but by their being allowed to remain out with the full knowledge and consent of the parents at times when no reasonable excuse exists for their so doing.


In the investigation of the complaints made it has been found that the parents generally have little or no knowledge of the laws of school attendance for their children and in many cases where it has been necessary to call attention to these laws, parents have evinced a desire to continue breaking the law rather than to try and comply with the requirements.


During the year one case has been taken before the courts in the repeated neglect of the parents to conply with the law in the attendance at school of children between the ages of 7 and 14 and at the present time there are other cases which will take the same course unless there is a better attendance at school of the children concerned.


Respectfully submitted,


ALFRED F. FRAZIER,


Truant Officer.
