MUSIC.
The music has continued under the charge of Mr. Wilson, who has striven hard to excite enthusiasm in the pupils, and with excellent success. This year, as last, a concert was given in May, by the school children under the direction of Mr. Wilson and was a successful and enjoyable occasion, and a credit to all who participated. The proceeds of the con- cert were invested in singing books for the schools.
The excellent singing at the annual examinations charmed even those who were opposed to it.
SCHOOL HOUSES.
Our school buildings constantly need some repairs and to this purpose quite a portion of the incidental fund is devoted. We have tried in years past to devote some portion of it to painting, but other expenses have been so large, we have failed. It now seems absolutely necessary that all our school buildings should be re-painted. The same policy which dic- tates a private citizen to keep his house well covered with paint should govern the municipality. We recommend a spe- cial appropriation for that purpose.
It would be an economical and gratifying improvement to
110
have concrete walks laid in the various school yards, and we suggest that if the town appropriates any money for the pur- pose of concrete walks, a reasonable portion of it be used about the school houses.
HIGII SCHOOL.
A note was appended to the school report of last year an- nouncing the resignation of Mr. Hill from the principalship of this school, a position held by him for ten years. He con- tinued however in the school to the close of the year and conducted the exercises of the graduating class which took place in the Town Hall on the evening of June 26th. A large, interested and attentive audience listened to the exer- cises which were creditable to the participants. At the close the members of the school presented Mr. Hill with one of "Rogers' Groups" as a testimonial of the high respect which they entertained for him. According to a custom which we consider a wise one we publish herewith the programme of exercises and the names of the graduating class.

*EUGENE C. MURDOCK.
* Three years course.
It was no easy task to find a suitable successor to Mr. Hill, but your Committee after corresponding with and see- ing over one hundred different candidates, selected Mr. Abbott Sanford who had been connected with the Malden High School for two years as sub-Master, and he entered upon his duties in September. In the short time that Mr. Sanford has had charge of the school he has shown a very high order of teaching capacity, and excellent skill in man- agement. At the same time Miss Lucy P. Greenough was elected Second Assistant, and has remained to the pres- ent time. This was rendered necessary by the fact that in 1878, in response to the demand for a more practical educa- tion, a business course of study for two years was adopted. The first class entered in 1878, and in September, 1879, the course came into full operation, thus adding three new reci- tations daily to the work of the teachers, and six from prior to the adoption of the business course. Miss Greenough is a lady of culture and experience, and her appointment has proved very acceptable to the school. Miss Keith remains first assistant, and wields a most important and beneficial influence over the whole school. The teaching force is now sufficient to answer all the requirements of law and the
112
desires of its friends, and we confidently expect from the school a brilliant future. Six pupils are now preparing for col- lege.
THE GRAMMAR SCHOOLS.
The four grammar schools have remained under the charge of the same teachers as last year,-Mrs. Wentworth, Miss Perkins, Mr. Cutter, and Miss Warren, respectively, and this fact is a sufficient guaranty of the character of the in- struction given, and the faithfulness of the work performed.
SECOND INTERMEDIATE.
Miss Jenny L.Dearborn had the care of this school to Decem- ber, when she was given a vacation to April on account of her health, and Miss Clara J. Emerson was appointed sub- stitute to that time. It is expected that Miss Dearborn will then return. She closed her first year's service by promot- ing every scholar in her room.
THIRD INTERMEDIATE.
Miss Alexander tendered her resignation as teacher of this school in the early part of March, and the same has been ac- cepted. Miss Alice G. Currier, a graduate of the High School in the class of 1878, and the valedictorian of the class has been chosen substitute to the end of the year.
FIRST AND SECOND PRIMARY SCHOOLS.
These schools have remained under the charge of Miss Stearns and Miss Hersey. The management of both meet with the hearty approbation of the Committee.
THE WARD SCHOOLS.
During the year no change in the corps of teachers in these schools has taken place except at Woodville. At the close of the summer term Miss Hammond resigned to accept a sit- uation at Newton upon a much larger salary. During her stay in this school she has done a wonderful work, and her resignation was much regretted. Miss Hattie M. Upham was appointed her successor, but resigned at the end of one
113
term on account of an increasing indisposition. Miss Clara J. Coney, a resident of Wakefield, and a graduate of Salem Normal School, was appointed to the vacant position, and is doing good service, with the promise of becoming a most excellent teacher. The other ward schools have been doing good work. It is unreasonable to expect them to send out scholars as good as do the Centre schools of the same grade. The teachers cannot have time for the drill absolutely neces- sary. While they have the advantage of more quiet, teach- ers and scholars lose the stimulus that comes from associa- tion.
APPROPRIATIONS.
We recommend that the town raise and appropriate, in addition to the sum on hand, to meet the present outstanding bills, and to cover all necessary expenses of the ensuing year the sum of eleven thousand five hundred dollars for general school purposes, one thousand dollars for incidental expenses, and five hundred dollars for painting school houses.
As we go about our schools and gaze into the faces of your children alive with interest, and eager for all that is new and good, we are awakened to the possibilities before us, tremble at the responsibilities upon us, and realize how imperfectly our work is done. The best results can only be obtained by a union of the best effort of the scholars, parents, teachers and Committee. In the ensuing year, remembering that we are making the future, let all join to make the school-room a place of delight to the scholars, a place for their noblest endeavors ; a place wherein shall be laid the foundations of character which shall outlive the generations of men.

REPORT
OF THE
TRUSTEES OF THE BEEBE TOWN LIBRARY.
Time in its ceaseless course has bronght us to the close of another financial year, and we pause to view the past with its numerous opportunities improved or misspent ; with its manifold blessings daily received, and with the continued and ever-increasing facilities for intellectual development and social enjoyment. The unpretending volumes of our public library have for another year been making their regular visits to our families, bringing pleasure to the fireside, and adding intelligence to the domestic circle.
The revival of business has in a measure increased our population, and new-comers have at once put themselves in communication with the public library. It is a gratifying fact that so many of our people find pleasure in reading. An intelligent writer has said: "If I were to pray for a taste which should stand me instead under every variety of cir- cumstance, and be a source of happiness and cheerfulness to me through life, and a shield against its ills, however things might go amiss, and the world frown against me, it would be a taste for reading."
Nearly forty years ago, before the establishment of school libraries, or free libraries of any kind to any great extent, a father, addressing his fellows through the columns of a mag- azine, made use of these words of wisdom : "Did parents
118
realize the numerous advantages resulting from a love of reading, I am persuaded they would not grudge the cost of books necessary to create, cherish and gratify it in their children. How many anxious hours are saved to parents in villages and cities, if their children, instead of running about the streets, (the parents know not in what company or em- ployment,) are seated around the fireside reading books of instruction and amusement. Even those parents whose authority can keep their children at home, even they are saved the pains of seeing their children uneasy, or dozing away the weary evening hours, or engaged in noisy talk and sports which annoy the family ;- all this is saved to them by cultivating the love of reading in them."
This principle was recognized by many a father who thought more of giving proper direction to the mind in child- hood, than in accumulating wealth to bestow upon his chil- dren after the season of youth had been neglected, and the responsibilities of adult age had been assumed without suita- ble mental culture, and without an appreciation of the proper use and real value of earthly possessions.
The blessings which a few favored cnes then possessed, and even more, are now held out to all. Instead of a few books in a private library, thousands of. volumes, Jaden with instruction and refining influences, invite the ambitious stu- dent to draw needed supplies from their well-filled pages, and to satiate his mental desires "without money and with- out price."
The value of such a repository of knowledge as a free libra- ry cannot well be estimated. Its silent influences pervade every portion of society, and enter into every fibre of our being ;- they take root in uninviting soil, and grow to the ex- clusion of the seeds of evil; they strengthen the intellect, improve manners, encourage morals, and promote virtue. It is in accord with the genius of a free government that the means of training the mental powers are so liberally furnish- ed; that learning, instead of being shut up in cloisters, is
119
within the reach of those of smallest means, and of humblest birth. It is as free as the air we breath.
Minds in love with reading and appreciating the useful and the true, have elements of power, which will lead their possessors to advance in spite of meanness of station and the frowns of fortune ; which will enable them to overcome mental and physical impediments, fancied or real, and to overleap the barriers that would forbid their entrance into the plentiful and inviting fields of golden fruit. They cannot be confined within the limits of self, but, rich with the expe- rience of others, look out upon the world full of the sublime and the beautiful, and, like a grand panorama, cause the past and the present to appear before their delighted vision.
They should not be unhappy within reach of such sources of pleasure ; they cannot be lonely surrounded by authors the wisest and best the world has ever known.
The farmer, the mariner, the merchant, the mechanic, the artisan, and men of all occupations, as well as the young as- piring to the various professions in life, may give full scope to their most earnest researches, and be rewarded by the real- ization of their fondest desires.
A very important want was supplied at the beginning of the year, in the completion of the new and well-arranged catalogue of books. It possesses many conveniencies over former catalogues, and especially will it greatly aid the Libra- rian and those drawing books, in making easy and proper se- lections for any desired course of reading.
It will be seen by the Librarian's report that there have not been so many volumes delivered on any one account as last year, but a greater number of persons have patronized the Library, and books of a better class have been selected, which required more time and thought properly to digest.
We recommend an appropriation of three hundred dollars
120
for the coming year in addition to the proceeds from the dog tax.
