HIGH SCHOOL REPORT.
To the Superintendent of Schools :-
The school opened September 6 with an enrollment of 58 pupils. Since that date three have left town, one has with- drawn voluntarily, and one has been added, making at this date a total of 55-30 girls and 25 boys. These are divided into three classes, senior, sophomore and freshman, number- ing respectively 16, 15 and 24.
The attendance has been very good except during the severe storms. Thus far the average attendance of the school has been 92 per cent. The school has been closed, in all, five days owing to inclement weather.
The studies given are practically the same as last year with the addition of a course in business arithmetic to follow and supplement the course in bookkeeping. In addition to the regular studies the work in music and drawing has pro- gressed well under the direction of the special teachers and of Miss Adams.
The material needs of the school have been well cared for and the pupils are having the use of textbooks of the highest order of excellence.
A wise precaution has been taken in placing several fire extinguishers in the building.
During the present year 25 visits have been made to the school but they have been principally of an official character. Visits by parents would be appreciated by the teachers.
In December a basket ball team was organized among the boys and the game has been played during the winter. Sev- eral games have been played in the Town Hall with other
-II2-
teams. Basket ball is a clean and wholesome sport requiring skill and endurance, and has proved not only a source of pleasure but of physical benefit.
Last June the High School graduated six pupils, three of whom are continuing their education in other schools. One passed the entrance examinations and was admitted to the Boston Normal School.
Respectfully submitted,
EDWARD R. CLARKE. Principal.
February 10, 1905.
REPORT ON DRAWING
To the Superintendent of Schools-
The teaching of drawing in the public schools has been a source of much enjoyment to myself, and I trust it has been to the regular teachers and the pupils. The children enter upon their work with much enthusiasm and everyone tries to do his best. The improvement this year has been quite marked. All now seem to realize that by trying they can draw fairly well.
Last spring water colors were introduced in the primary and grammar grades. The work of the fall term shows good advancement in this line, many doing excellent work.
During the school year beginning last September I have been using Mr. Henry T. Bailey's program as published in "The School Arts Book," competing every month for the prizes offered by that magazine. Thus far two boys in the seventh grade have each taken a prize-one a third, the other a fourth prize, and several have received "honorable men- tion." Out of the large number competing all over the United States this is doing well for a small town and for pupils who have so little practice.
It is to be regretted that there cannot be more time given to drawing, a daily or tri-weekly exercise would make a great difference in the results. Writing has a good share of practice work, but drawing only gets its half-hour a week except in the lowest grades where it has one hour.

It is surprising to see how well the smallest children take up the work of the second year, quite as if they were accus- tomed to doing it.
The careful grading in Scituate schools makes it possible to do very good work. A suitable lesson can very well be given to two grades at one time.
Respectfully submitted,
HARRIET J. FORD.
REPORT ON MUSIC
To the Superintendent of Schools-
The music in the schools of Scituate is now progressing in good form. In the beginning of the present year each room was furnished with books of an excellent music course and the effect may already be seen. Each room is now progress- ing according to the ability of the children, rather than try- ing to keep to the year's work usually laid out for each grade, when this music course has been settled for some years. In the course of time, when they are more used to reading from books (a faculty which has to be acquired). and as the lower grades pass on to the higher, the work will be more uniform. Even the tiny first grade children have their work of learning the position of the notes on the staff, a "game" in which they are very much interested and par- ticularly quick. Their other work, which they turn into play, is learning little songs by rote.
The third grade finds the reading from books more diffi- cult than any other, as this is where they are first introduced, but with the competion of individual work, and the revealing of interesting exercises and songs the children will soon make rapid progress. The work in the fourth and fifth grades in each school building is worthy of honorable men- tion. This is due not only to the fact that the teachers are particularly able to teach music, but that it so happens that each room has quite a few leading voices. There is a room in the upper grades which calls forth the profound respect of the Supervisor. In this room there is no real leading voice and the pupils feel that they have no talent for music, but nstead of saying "I can't sing," they try and find they
1
-116-
can do very creditable work. Under these circumstances we make no comparisons and do not harshly criticise results.
The supervisor is very grateful to the teachers for the in- terest they take in the work. The results show the extent of their work and that they keep the interest alive in the children.
In the High School the teachers are making a special effort to fix in the minds of the pupils definitions, key analy- sis, rythm and time; but there will always be those who hear but find it impossible to write it down without leading ques- tions and some one to help them along.
Again I wish to thank each teacher for her co-operation in the work of the music in the schools.
Respectfully submitted,
LILLIE C. STODDARD.

JOHN J. FORD
Mr. Ford died at his home in Greenbush, March 11, 1905.
Born in Scituate, a graduate of her public schools, and later on holding positions of trust, conferred upon him by his fellow townsmen, Mr. Ford was closely identified with the affairs of his native place.
He served as Selectman from 1886-1892 and from 1898-1904, and was Chairman of the Board for several years. He was re-elected in 1905.
Mr. Ford was a member of the Masonic fratern- ity, an Odd Fellow and a member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Boston.
His generous spirit and kindly acts made him many friends who mourned his untimely taking off in the prime of his life.
The funeral services were at his old home in Greenbush, March 14, and many attended to pay their last tribute of respect to his memory.
