FROM THE REPORT OF THE SUPERVISORS
Grace A. Jenkins, Art
The program in art education for all the grades is directed toward the following objectives-
1. To develop a growing appreciation of beauty in all things.
2. To stimulate the desire to create.
3. To afford many opportunities for experimentation, exploration and actual manipulation of various materials.
4. To give an understanding of such art principles as order, sim- plicity, balance, emphasis, repetition and rhythm; and the correct use of such art elements as perspective, line, form, color harmony and texture.
64
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
5. To develop good taste in art.
6. To relate art to the school, home and community.
7. To afford a recreational recourse and foundation for art needs in later life.
Modeling with clay, finger painting, soap carving, spatter work, mak- ing posters, painting of scenery and murals, interesting illustration with colored chalk on the blackboards, these are some of the things which are done in an attempt to attain the objectives.
Joseph H. Fanck, Director of Instrumental Music
This past year there were 54 members in the High School band, and 22 members in the High School orchestra. The band played at all the foot- ball games, participated in the Memorial Day, Flag Day and Election Day parades, took part in the Massachusetts Music Festival, and, with the or- chestra, gave the annual concert in April. The orchestra played for the Senior Play and for several assemblies. Both organizations have rehearsed three times weekly during the year.
The Junior Band and the Junior Orchestra, composed of pupils from the elementary schools, have also been active. These organizations also took part in the annual concert.
Martin S. Tarlaian, Music
The attempt is being made by the music supervisor to stimulate gen- eral interest in musical activity, singing, playing, or just listening, an in- terest which will last throughout the students' lives.
Music aptitude tests have been given to those pupils in the fifth through the eighth grades who have shown an interest in musical instrumental study, but, as in the past, the supply of instruments available is inadequate to meet the demand.
Assistance is given to classroom teachers who need help, and demon- strations and consultations with teachers have been frequent.
Below are some of the additions to the music department which would prove helpful --
1. Rhythm instruments for students to achieve muscular control which gives a background for later instruction.
2. A large number of record players for classroom use.
3. A tape recorder more fully to develop an enriched program to enable the students to hear themselves.
Raymond S. Dower, Penmanship.
Mr. Dower makes the following points about left-handed writers-
1. In Wakefield all children are taught to keep the hand below the line of writing.
2. A child can learn to write with either hand without any mental disturbance, if he would like to and if no coercion is used.
3. No attempt is made to change left-handed writers to right-handed writers unless the parent requests it.
4. Incorrect posture and holding of the pencil have been developed in many cases before the children reach the first grade, which makes the teacher's task doubly difficult, as left-handed children are more difficult to adjust.
CHARLES J. PETERSON
1878 - 1952
Principal, High School, 1919-1947
"An able administrator and a wise counsellor. A man who combined a capacity for organization with great understanding and sympathy. The reputation of this school is a monument to his unremitting efforts."

Health
Dr. Szydlowski reports that 1184 complete physical examinations were given during the year, with 687 defects being noted as follows:
302 needed dental work
81 needed throat attention
53 had wax in ear canals
6 showed eye defects
6 showed speech defects
11 heart conditions were found
11 had high blood pressure
3 had chest deformities
12 had skin conditions
16 had flat feet
14 had bad posture
18 had enlarged neck glands
65 were underweight
53 were overweight
25 were not vaccinated successfully
5 had varicoceles
6 had hernias
There is a follow-up on these defects by the school nurses, and the children are again seen by the school physician periodically to check the specific defect.
This was the first year when the parents were invited to attend the examination of their children, and 81 mothers took advantage of the op- portunity to do so.
Mrs. Adams has taken care of 1935 visits to the health rooms at the High and Woodville Schools, and has given hearing and vision tests to the 7th, 9th and 11th grades. Approximately 600 High School students were X-rayed in October when the Mobile Unit was in Wakefield.
Mrs. O'Brien has made a total of 308 house visits following up various illnesses and defects. She has given the hearing and vision tests to the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th grades.
Both Mrs. Adams and Mrs. O'Brien attended the clinic for crippled children at Salem. Some cases have been referred to the Rheumatic Fever Clinic and to the Children's Hospital.

Wakefield schools have a good reputation in the state and are taught by the best teachers we can secure within the budget on which we operate. A glance at the per pupil costs above reveals that we are operating below the average cost in the state. We believe that our schools are operated efficiently and economically, and we believe the people in this community are getting value received for the amount they are investing in their schools each year.
In conclusion, I would like to pay tribute to all who have had a part in advancing the cause of education in this community. People are interested in their children and through the Parent-Teachers Associations have given loyal support. Town officials and members of the Finance Committee have been sympathetic and understanding of our building and budgetary needs You, as members of the School Committee, have given most generously of your thought and time. To all, I wish to express my sincere appreciation for your support, consideration, and encouragement.
Respectfully submitted,

IN MEMORIAM
BLANCHE L. MESERVE
1892 - 1952
Miss Meserve came to Wakefield in January of 1917 and was assigned to the first grade at the Lincoln School. At that time she probably had no idea that she was to spend the remaining thirty-five years of her life in the same grade and in the same school. In September of each of those thirty-five years she greeted in her warm, gracious and friendly manner a new group of youngsters who were just starting school. She loved them all, individually and collectively, and it was not long before they in turn loved her. Fortunate indeed were those boys and girls who were in Miss Meserve's first grade.
Hers was the joy of watching the progress of "her" first graders: as they completed the eighth grades at the Lincoln School and entered High School; as they finished their work at High School and entered another phase of their lives; as they married and had children of their own who became her pupils. Miss Meserve was never a "teacher." To her teaching was a profession: one which demanded, and received, her best; a highly- rewarding one; and one in which she excelled. There were never any re- grets that she had chosen it for her life work.
The Wakefield Public Schools are poorer because of her passing. The School Committee, the administration, her fellow teachers and literally hundreds of her former pupils will miss her, but can still be grateful that she was a teacher in Wakefield for thirty-five years.
CHARLES J. PETERSON Jan. 24, 1878 - Jan. 27, 1952
Principal, Wakefield High School 1919 - 1947
"Leaders of the people by their counsels, Wise and eloquent in their instructions"

141ST ANNUAL REPORT
RETIREMENTS
During 1952 the following teachers retired from service in the Wake- field public schools.
Mary E. C. Geagan, a graduate of Salem State Teachers College, came to Wakefield in January of 1907, and, until her retirement in June, was a teacher in the Warren School.
Bernice E. Hendrickson, also a graduate of Salem State Teachers Col- lege, served continuously as a teacher at the Lincoln School from February, 1908, until November 1952.
Arthur A. Fulton, graduate of Northampton Commercial College and Blackstone Institute, was head of the commercial department, teacher and submaster in the Wakefield High School-except for a brief period in the service of his country-from 1915 to 1952.
Donald White, graduate of Harvard, was, except for a short time while he was in the army, and a second brief time in his own business, a teacher in the Wakefield High School from 1918 to 1952.
These four teachers gave approximately 160 years of devoted service to the education of the youth of this town. Each of them had a sound educational background, but of far greater importance were their ability to arouse an interest in, and to impart, their knowledge, and their genuine liking for young people. It is impossible to estimate the influence which they have had upon the lives of countless boys and girls who have been in their classes. The School Committee and the administration are glad to pay this wholly inadequate tribute to their service, and to wish for them many happy years as they rest upon their laurels and live quieter, al- though not more rewarding, years.
