FOREST WARDEN'S REPORT.
TO THE HONORABLE BOARD OF SELECTMEN :
Gentlemen :- I herewith present to you my report from Feb. 1, 1910, to Feb. 1, 1911.
Owing to the extremely dry seasons which we have had, forest fires have been numerous. On two occasions a fortu- nate shift of wind saved hundreds of acres of valuable wood land.
The number of fires handled by the department was 21. Number of acres burned over, about 225. Cost to extinguish, $90.59.
Forest Warden, ALBERT C. AIKEN, 88 Centre Street.
Deputy Wardens,
Charles F. Benson, 620 Washington St.
Edwin J. Howard, New Boston Road.

TOWN FARM REPORT.
BOARD OF OVERSEERS OF POOR AND CITIZENS OF FAIRHAVEN :-
I respectfully submit to you my report for 1910.
Number of inmates, eleven, four men, six women, and one baby 18 months old. Two men help with work outside, and one man and three women help inside. Good supply of vegetables of all kinds grown for summer and fall consumption, also full supply stored and canned for the winter. We raise plenty of hay on the farm for the stock. Stock consists of one horse, and one cow that supplies us with plenty of milk, also 40 hens that produce all the eggs we need.
The improvements consist of painting the walls of the inmates' dining room and hallways on the first and second floors, ceilings whitened in men's and women's sitting rooms, also one large window cut between inmates and warden's dining room for observation. The main hall and stairways have been newly carpeted.
There have been given the farm a few pieces of good furniture that has been repaired and put to use. I would be pleased to have the residents of the town take an interest in and visit the farm at any and all times. We strive to make it pleasant and homelike for the inmates, and think it is appre- ciated by them.
Very respectfully, JOHN L. ELDRIDGE.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
To the School Committee of Fairhaven :
I have the honor of presenting for the consideration of your board, the following report which covers briefly the main facts relative to the organization and conduct of this department for the past year. Such statistics as may be of interest concern- ing income, expenditure, enrolment, attendance, teachers, equip- ment, etc., are submitted in tables following this report.
The enrolment by grades and buildings may be found on a later page, which shows that there were during the Fall term 151 pupils in the High school; that the ninth grade of 39 pupils has occupied one room in the old High school; that the Rogers school, with eight rooms and the assembly hall as a recitation room, has accommodated the grammar school pupils in the centre of the town, with an average of 41 pupils to a room, while the primary grades numbering 249 pupils, occupied the six rooms at the Washington street school, with an average of 41.5 pupils to a room. At Oxford the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth grades, only, could be accommodated, with an average of 42 pupils per room. The seventh and eighth grades from Oxford had to be transferred and transported on the electric car to the Old High school building, involving considerable expense for car tickets.
The total enrolment for the past fall term, was 964, an in- crease of 34 over the previous year, and an increase of 300 since the year 1900. The increase in average attendance over the last year was 41. The increase in average membership for the year ending June 30, 1910, over the year ending June, 1909, was 51. These increases in the year ending June, 1910, and during the fall term ending December, 1910, were so scat-

tered in different grades that it was possible after some plan_ ning and re-arrangement to take care of all these pupils with the same number of rooms and the same number of teachers as in the preceding year.
Nine teachers have had to be secured for Fairhaven, and three new janitors have been appointed, also three assistants in the cooking and lunch department.
In general, the schools have been conducted with little modification or change in the plans of previous years. The increased enrolment at the High school made it necessary to have an additional helper in the lunch department during a part of the day. The addition of a course in agriculture and the extension of the opportunities for manual training in the shop down to the seventh grade, involved the appointment of an assistant in the manual training department for three days per week. The general work of the High school has been carried on in its departments with effectiveness and faithful- ness. The chief addition to the many splendid opportunities which the school has heretofore offered has been a course in agriculture, which has been carried on quietly and conserva- tively during the past year. During the present school year, 16 boys have been enrolled in this course, and are receiving, not only theoretical instruction in the principles of agriculture, but are obtaining a splended practice in the shop, in those phases of manual training which may be applied to agricultural needs, anticipating the out-of-door manual training or practical field work when the spring returns. The advantages of such a course for many boys are so many and so varied that we hope for the extension and broadening of this phase of High school training.
The High school graduated last year a class of 21 pupils, the majority of whom are either actively engaged in remunera- tive positions, or are gaining further preparation for their life work in advanced schools. The list of High school graduates, for several years, with their present occupations and location,
