(b) A lending library of tools to encourage the making and repairing of articles at home.
(c) A sample of each project to serve as a model for pupils and as a permanent display for all visitors.
(d) A method whereby the repairing and refinishing of articles from home will be encouraged.
(e) A program of industrial visits to acquaint the boys with their local industries.
(f) A more extensive use of the public library in all matters pertaining to shop work and other boy ac- tivities.
There is too great a tendency to measure the success of a shop course by the type of projects turned out. Too little concern is paid to the experiences of the boy while making that article. Was the boy happy ? Did he become discouraged ? Did he master each new situation ? Could he make another project like the first one in less time and improve upon it? We do know that the boys who take manual training are interested in their work, that they develop habits of work by working, and learn a great many things which they heretofore did not know.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF AMERICAN- IZATION AND EVENING SCHOOLS
Mr. William I. Whitney, Director of Americanization and Evening Schools, reports :
The Americanization and Evening School Classes are in session on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays for a period of twenty weeks beginning the last week in October. Classes are conducted at the Knapp and Cornish Schools and the Plymouth Cordage Company's Plant.
At the present time one hundred twenty-one are en- rolled in these classes. Of this number seventeen are illiterate minors, who are required by law to attend an evening school until the work of the first six grades shall have been completed.
Regular attendance in all these classes is very import- ant. In all Americanization Classes the pupil must have attended at least fifty hours to obtain a State Certificate for work accomplished. Our attendance in these classes has been excellent. The men and women, who comprise them, being fully aware of the advantages they offer and wish to make the most of them.
Americanization cannot be imposed from without. It is best handled when the immigrant becomes assimilated through his own efforts and a lively desire. Citizenship is a goal to be prized and sought after-not to be forced.
Since our first Citizenship Class ten years ago, how- ever, no person enrolled and certified by teacher and di- rector has failed to pass the required educational test of the Federal Naturalization Examiner.

REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
The year 1931 has been an exceptionally healthy one, no serious epidemics having occurred. There have been the usual cases of minor contagious diseases from which we are never entirely free.
It is expected that the immunizing of the first grade and pre-school pupils, as many as is possible to obtain the parents' consent to do, will greatly lessen the inci- dence of diphtheria as well as the spread of the disease when sporadic cases occur. 222 of those who were given the toxin antitoxin last year were given the Schick Test and only ten of this number showed a positive reaction, which is a very gratifying result. We are trying to give the toxin antitoxin injections to all the first grade pupils who have not previously had it, and in this way in a very few years we will have a school population nearly all of whom will be immune to diphtheria, as but few over ten years of age are very susceptible. Those who had a posi- tive reaction to the Schick Test were given another course of injections and 130 first grade and 76 pre-school were also inoculated.
During the week of June 15th the various schools were visited by the dental hygienist, physical instructor, school nurse and school physician and 272 100% medals, 1,659 weight tags, 1,111 posture tags and 64 teeth tags were distributed to various pupils entitled to them. The Wellingsley School had the unique distinction of having the largest number of 100% pupils in proportion to total students, 23 out of 30 receiving the 100% medals. This is a very unusual record.
We examined 145 pre-school children, 72 of whom had the toxin antitoxin injections, or almost exactly half. The following defects were found:

6 Nose 2
Posture
37 Gland

Teeth
63 Feet 3
14 10% or more underweight 6 Throat

Cards were sent out to all the parents asking permis- sion for the tuberculosis survey to be given by the clinic from the State Board of Health in the fall. Dr. Wake- field spoke to the pupils in the various schools explaining the purpose and methods of the clinic. Out of 1,898 en- rolled in the grade schools 1,492 had the Von Pirquet test which would be about 79%. There were 252 of this num- ber who reacted and were given an X-Ray examination, making about 17% of the number tested being referred for X-Ray. Of the 252 X-Rayed 70 were recommended for physical examination. Of the 650 enrolled in the Sen- ior High School 445 were given the Von Pirquet test. There were 94 who had positive reactions and were X- Rayed. This is 21% or slightly more than the grade schools of 17%. Of the 94 X-Rayed 21 were recommend- ed for physical examination.
There were 15 who were classified as hilum tuberculo- sis and 48 as suspicious cases after the physical examin- ation. The parents of these cases were notified and ad- vised to consult their family physicians and have them follow the case, also these cases will be weighed every month and special attention given them in school. They will be re-examined and X-Rayed every year as long as is needed. Some of these patients have already made very satisfactory gains in weight.
The audiometer test given by Miss Anna J. Foley of the Plymouth County Health Association, to the third grade children revealed the following defects.

The Rest and Nutrition Class was conducted by Mrs. Mary Perkins from January to June when she resigned. Miss Helen R. Burgess took charge at the beginning of the fall term.
Dr. Patterson from the Wrentham State School gave her usual examination in December to 35 pupils, reports of which have been received with her recommendations as to what disposal should be made of the pupils.
The School Nurse, Dental and Oral Hygiene depart- ments have given their usual efficient and satisfactory services. Their reports follow.
The Department of Physical Education and Sports have cooperated in a very efficient manner with the Medi- cal department and have materially helped to correct some of the defects noted, especially posture.
I wish to thank all of the principals, teachers, the Physical Director's department and the dentists for their hearty cooperation with the efforts of the School Physi- cian.
Respectfully submitted,
L. B. HAYDEN, M.D.,

REPORT OF REST AND NUTRITION CLASS, 1931
The Rest and Nutrition Class of the Cornish School was organized for the benefit of the Cornish-Burton group in 1928.
The purpose of the class is to treat the condition known as malnutrition by means of a rest and a well balanced diet.
The schedule is divided as follows:
First Period: 10:10 a. m. to 10:45 a. m. lunch. Crackers and milk or cocoa served.
Second Period : 11.45 a. m. to 12.30 p. m. Rest in fresh air room. 12:30 p. m. to 1 p. m. dinner. 1:00 p. m. to 1:15 p. m. Time on playground.
The menus are planned with reference to adequate proportions of the food elements, which go to make up the diet of the growing child.
At present there are sixteen pupils in the class, and the total gain in weight from September to December, is over 5%. Only one pupil showed a loss. The food for this class is not financed by the school committee. A few of the pupils pay the regular fee of seventy-five cents per week, but the class is carried on mainly by the generosity of friends, and some of our local societies. We are in- debted to the following for contributions of money : Plym- outh Post 40, American Legion Auxiliary, American Red Cross, Plymouth Fragment Society, the Baptist Church, the teachers, and to the following individuals: Mr. Mor- ton Robbins for ice, Mr. Joseph Wood for fish, Mr. Her- bert Nash of Boston for cocoa, Plymouth Baking Com- pany for cooking turkeys, and A. R. Parker Company for ice cream.
These happy occasions help us to make a success of our work as happiness is an essential part of the health program.
Respectfully submitted,
HELEN R. BURGESS.

REPORT OF THE ORAL HYGIENE DEPARTMENT AND DENTAL CLINIC
I hereby submit my report of the dental work done in the Plymouth public schools during the year 1931.
Teaching Oral Hygiene
I have followed a program in grades one through four, so arranged that a different phase of dental hygiene is taught each month. Instruction is constantly directed toward the prevention of mouth disease and the preser- vation of health.
It is my aim to correlate the dental health work with other school subjects. Various devices are used to in- terest the children in all of these lessons.
The child is taught diet in its relation to building strong teeth. He is also taught the proper size, use, and care of the tooth-brush. Then he must learn about those most important six-year molars, and the value of going to the dentist twice a year. These are all desirable health objectives.
.
-61-
Cooperation, is the key-word for successful health work in the public schools.
During the past year I have noticed several types of splendid cooperation among our teachers in trying to bring about better care of the teeth. For example, clever and original health posters, pertaining to teeth, have been made in many rooms.
The class-room teacher devotes time each week to lessons in hygiene. During my monthly visit to the class- room if a pupil is found with an unclean mouth, the teacher deducts a certain percentage from his rank in hygiene for the month.
We are also grateful to the dentists of the town for their fine cooperation which is so helpful in a school dental program.

Oral Hygiene and Dental Clinic
In the fall of 1929, the school dentists examined 1,992 pupils and 1,851 of these children were in need of dental attention. By National Child Health Day, which was held in June, 1930, 618 children had received a certificate from their dentist signifying that all of the needed repair work had been done that was necessary at that time.
In the fall of 1930, 1,813 pupils were examined and 1,512 needed dental attention. In June, 1931, 621 chil- dren had received a dental certificate.
At Wellingsley School in June, 1931, 26 pupils out of 30 received dental certificates. This is the best record that has been obtained in the history of the school.
-62-
In spite of the economic situation, there is an increase of 100% mouths.
Here are a few figures which will prove to be of in- terest in measuring some of our results :-
In 1922 in our clinic there were 127 permanent teeth extracted, whereas, in 1930 there were 13, and in 1931, there were 11.
There is a decided decrease in the number of tooth- aches.
In examining, the dentists find that there are a fewer number with large cavities and badly broken-down and abscessed teeth.
This shows the effect of nutrition teaching in the early grades as well as the good that is being done at the clinic.

In addition to the above there have been many inves- tigations of home conditions in connection with welfare work in conjunction with various organizations in town. Many pupils have been assisted in various ways in ob- taining clothing and other necessities in order to allow them to attend school. We have been able to help a great many families in securing milk for the needy children and through the courtesy of the school department needy children have also been given meals during the school day.
