In the first place a business course should be a substantial one. In our thought, hitherto, our classical courses have been the sub- stantial ones, while such as the English and commercial have been held to be inferior. As evidence of the truth of this statement, I cite the fact that, until this year, it has been the custom to confine the valedictory and salutatory to members of the classical course. This year, for the first time, the competition for the honors is thrown open to the members of the English course as well, thus recognizing that course as a most substantial and respectablé part of the school curriculum.


With regard to a commercial course, one thing is certain, that, to command respect it should be as difficult, as comprehensive, and as absorbing of time and strength as any other. Emphasis


241


should be taken from bookkeeping, typewriting and stenography, and these subjects take their proper places as co-ordinate subjects beside history and civil government, French or German, English literature, algebra and geometry, and whatever other subjects may be introduced to distinguish the business course from other courses. Among the latter might be mentioned : (a) The principles of commerce, including the functions of exchanges and boards of trade, United States consuls, modern transportation methods, etc. ; (b) American industries, production of food, clothing, heat and light, furniture, building materials, etc., etc. ; (c) industrial arithmetic, e. g., Inmber measurements, land measurements, etc. ; (d) commercial arithmetic ; (e) political history.


Again, such a course as outlined above should require four years for its completion. For the first two years the course would be practically the same as the English course, but in the third and fourth years would occur those studies, bookkeeping, etc., which especially identify the business course.


The particular advantage of this distribution of subjects over the four years of the course, would be the diminished size of classes, the greater interest in the subject due to greater age of pupils, and consequent better work that could be done.


And, lastly, it is desirable to bear in mind, that the primary aim of a stenography and typewriting course, including bookkeep- ing, is to prepare young men and women for employment as secre- taries, amanuenses, clerks, bookkeepers and assistants in business offices, while it is the province of the business course in general to give a comprehensive view of the great principles underlying modern business and a broad outlook upon the world, especially the industrial world, and life in general.


With the large increase in the number of public libraries in our Commonwealth and the increasing cost of maintenance, has come forward the question of increased efficiency. With a view to en- larging the sphere of usefulness of the Boston Public Library, the question of the co-operation of the library with the public schools has recently been under discussion by the school and library au- thorities, and a plan for co-operation prepared. It has occurred to me that some similar plan for a closer union of our library and our High school could be adopted by our authorities, contempla-


242


ting perhaps, the purchase and furnishing of books for school use for general reading, and also the temporary deposit in the school library of books for topical reference, say in history or science (apart, however, from reference books proper) .


The cadets have enjoyed the use of the new armory the entire year and are just now congratulating themselves upon the com- pletion of a new gun room in the armory building and also upon the addition of a number of Springfield rifles to their outfit.


Among the pleasant events I have to record is the decision of the class of 1899 to present the school with a collection of framed mounted photographs of specimens of Greek and Roman art. It is hoped that this collection may be the beginning of a more com- plete collection of the works of the great masters.


The relations of the pupils and teachers have been, in general, of a pleasant nature. To the great body of pupils credit is due for the manliness and cheerfulness with which they have borne the many changes of management necessarily incident to the change of the almost entire corps of teachers.


To my fellow teachers my thanks are especially due for the very willing spirit with which they have seconded my efforts and to you, sir, and the school committee for your co-operation and assistance.


Very respectfully. CHARLES H. HOWE.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC.


To the Superintendent of Schools :


I beg leave to present the following report of the progress of musical instruction in our public schools of Wakefield.


The study is begun in the lowest primary grade and is continued in a systematic graded course through to the High School.


The music taught is founded upon as true an educational basis as any of the other studies, and it is not only educating but ele- vating. Both words and music are carefully selected with that object in view. The quality of tone, one of the most essential things in good music, is carefully looked after in the lowest grades, and the pupils are taught how to produce good pure tones, not only with the singing voice, but also in speaking. Scales, intervals, exercises and songs are sung in a soft musical voice ; thus the singing quality of the pure vocal sounds are established. Rhythm is also introduced in the first year. Notation is begun the last half of the first year, and pupils, with very few excep- tions, can be taught to read and sing music very correctly. In all the different grades the pupils are taught to do their work intelligently-to read, write and sing in all the major and minor keys, in two, three and four part harmony.


It has been my object from year to year to have the pupils im- prove in sight reading, and I am much pleased at the steady improvement made by them.


The pupils are interested. The teachers are enthusiastic and earnest, and do all they can, in the short time allotted for the study of music, to make it a success, and I think our schools compare favorably with the best.


I cannot close my report without referring to the concert given at the Town hall, in March, by the pupils of the High school. The Cantata of Ruth was presented to a large audience, It was


244


a success both musically and financially, and the proceeds were used to pay for the piano at the High school.


This school has now one of the finest pianos manufactured, and it has been entirely paid for through the efforts and generosity of former and present teachers and pupils.


Respectfully submitted. GEORGE F. WILSON,


Supervisor of Music.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING.


To the Superintendent of Schools :


I take pleasure in reporting that a review of the department of drawing, for the second year of special supervision, makes evident a great improvement in quality and quantity of work, a better comprehension of underlying principles by teachers and scholars, and more skill in execution. The higher grade schools have been able to make an advance in the work, more nearly approaching the standard in the towns where drawing has been taught for many years. .


The public was given an opportunity to see how the subject of drawing is adapted to common school work by an exhibition held in Odd Fellows' hall, Main street, June 20 and 21.


The exhibition consisted mainly of free hand drawings from each school in town, and showed the progression of the work from the first grade to the second year in the high school. The drawings were classified in three divisions,-those showing the facts of form, or how objects are constructed ; pictorial representation, or the appearance of form, and decoration, or the ornamenting of form. The last subject was illustrated by some simple designs of colored paper, which added much to the attraction of the exhi- bition. The clay modeling from the primary schools, the type forms and boxes made by the other pupils from pasteboard were examined with much interest by the many parents and friends who attended the exhibition. Much amusement was occasioned by the original illustrations from some of the primary schools. Illus- trated language papers in geography and physiology attracted much attention.


The value of such occasional exhibitions is shown in the in- creased interest of teachers and pupils, the comparison of the work in different schools and grades, and the opportunity it


246


affords the public to see some of the tangible results of school work.


The enthusiasm and thoroughness which pupils attain depend in a great measure upon the regular grade teachers, and to their con- scientious and earnest efforts is due a large share of the success of the year's work.


Respectfully submitted.


ANNIE B. PARKER, Supervisor of Drawing.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION.


To the Superintendent of Schools :


The plan of the work in gymnastics in the schools is as follows : In the Primary and Grammar schools ten to fifteen minutes a day are taken for physical exercises, and during this time the air in the room is changed by opening the windows in the school-rooms where there is no other method of ventilation. I give a lesson in each school once in two weeks.


Meetings of the teachers are held once a fortnight in the High School building, when all new movements are demonstrated, and the teachers have a practical lesson in gymnastics, that they may from their own experience grasp the points that I desire to have brought out in the schools .. At these meetings some talks have been given on the theory of the Swedish system, and the ineaning and aim of the different exercises.


Whatever success may have been attained thus far is due to the teachers, because of their kindly co-operation in the new work, and the faithfulness with which they are carrying it out.


In the High school, the work with the girls is entirely under my charge. They are in two divisions : The first division includes those of the three upper classes, who show good results from the training received from Miss Batt, last year; the second division is composed of the members of the entering class. Mondays and Thursdays each division has twenty-five minutes' work; on other days the divisions are taken together for a ten-minute drill. Mon- days and Thursdays the drills are from ten-forty to eleven-forty, . and parents and others who may feel an interest in the work are cordially invited to be present. I believe a demonstration of the ordinary work of the class will be more satisfactory than any en- hibition drill. . Moreover no exhibition was ever given without a


248


large expenditure of time and nervous energy, which the pupils can ill afford to spare for such a purpose. Such exhibitions seem to be a remnant of the old idea that physical training is merely for ornament, and as long as this idea remains, physical training will never be given its true position as an essential factor in the edu- cation of the child.


That there is need of such training no thoughtful observer can doubt; the cold feet and hot heads, with the accompanying headaches and dullness are everyday features of school life; the cramped chests, rounded shoulders, the lounging positions are features so familiar that they occasion but passing remark, and with an optimism not warranted by facts, many hold the idea that the child will overcome these defects without the aid of special correction and training. The process of remedying these weak- nesses is necessarily slow, but good results will come from rational, systematic training.


My purpose is to make the work in the schools a real physical education of the child-a drawing out and developing of his phy- sical powers, not as an end but as a means to a stronger and bet- ter mental and moral development.


Respectfully submitted.


HARRIET E. HUTCHINSON,


Supervisor of Physical Education.

REPORT OF TRUANT OFFICERS.


To the Superintendent of Schools :


The report of the truant officers for the year ending January 31, 1896, is hereby respectfully submitted :


During the year 46 cases of absence from school were reported for investigation, of which 24 proved to be cases of truancy, and 22 were cases where the parents either kept the children from school or allowed them to remain away. In addition to the above there were a number of cases where children of school age have been found upon the streets during school hours, and their cases inves- tigated, a few of which were cases of truancy, but most of them were cases where the parents were at fault. Of the 24 cases of truancy it was found necessary to bring but two before the court, one of whom was taken on probation and the other was commit- ted to the county truant school, at Chelmsford.


We wish to thank the superintendent of schools and teachers for their assistance and co-operation.

CLASS ODE.


WRITTEN BY BERTHA HELEN DANIEL ..


After years of fruitful labor, Comes the time when we must part, And the fond relations sever, Which so closely bind the heart.


251


Often on life's painful journey As we daily work and strive, We'll advance with footsteps lighter When we think of '95,


REFRAIN :-


Now farewell, dear school, farewell ! We must bid thee fond farewell ! Teachers, who so kind and patient, Helped us onward to the end,- Even as the shadows deepened, And the sun no light did send- We will cherish in our memories Pleasant recollections dear Of the days now gone forever, In the school of hope and cheer.


REFRAIN :-


Schoolmates, we'll push "Bravely" forward, Never lingering by the way ; "Faithfully" our tasks performing Each succeeding night and day. Then may He who in His goodness Safely brought us through the past, Keep us in the paths of duty, Crown us with "Success" at last.
