"I pledge myself not to deface any fence or building, neither will I scatter paper nor throw rubbish in public places; I will not injure any tree, shrub or lawn; I promise not to spit upon the floor in any public place nor upon the sidewalk. I will protect the property of others as I would my own. I will always protect birds and other animals. I will work to keep my body healthy, clean and strong. I will promise to try to be a true, loyal citizen."


Application has been made to the Executive Committee of the Fairhaven Improvement Association for affiliation with it. If this is approved "members of the Junior Im- provement Association who give evidence of having com- pleted not less than twenty hours of civic service may be- come associate members of the senior association on pay- ment of a fee of fifty cents." "Associate membership in- cludes the right to participate in the privileges of the associa- tion and also the right to serve on committees appointed by the Executive Committee of the senior association."


The Junior Improvement Association has been organ- ized several weeks in the seventh and eighth grades and much interest is manifested. It was initiated in the fifth and sixth grades the last week of the fall term. Under a slightly dif- ferent plan an effort is being made to start one in the high school.


22


The government of these associations is through officers elected by the pupils. The teacher is ex-officio a member of the executive committee.


Good citizenship is founded on public spirit. Public spirit has one of its first opportunities of manifestation in interest in and loyalty to the home town. It is hoped that through the study of civics in our schools and the opportunity and incentive given to develop civic spirit, a sense of respon- sibility and loyality may be developed in these future citizens.


In this connection may be mentioned the study of local history in the upper grades. This has been successfully carried on for several years. This year there is a greater interest in it than usual. Much time and effort are being put forth in getting and arranging material.


Health Supervision.


The importance of increasing attention to health super- vision has been emphasized in previous reports. Progress along this line has been made during the year. Through the efforts of the Mothers' Club a dental clinic has been estab- lished. Money for equipment and the services of a dentist two days a week was raised in various ways and work was begun in October. Up to December 15th the clinic had been open twenty-six days. Fifty-seven pupils have been treated; twenty-five of them once, twenty-three twice, seven three times, and one four times.


Under the plan of operating the clinic the cost of treat- ment is made as low as possible and is modified to meet the needs of individual pupils. Thirty-eight children have paid the full charge, three a part of it and nine have received free treatment.


The total number of visits to the clinic thus far has been ninety-six.


Up to this time the work has been confined to the chil- dren of the lower grades. Examination of the children in the upper grades has been scheduled and some work will be done for them during the remainder of the year.


The value of the work being done through the clinic


23


can hardly be exaggerated. Many people know that de- cayed teeth are responsible for much ill health. They know that each decayed tooth becomes a focus of infection, the products of which may be absorbed into the system and cause serious constitutional disturbances. Knowing these things, it would amaze them to know how many children are not taught at home the use of the tooth brush and never have their teeth properly cared for. Not to have this care means, not merely that the child will lose days of school, but, also, that he is likely to suffer throughout his life from lack of it.


The Mothers' Club did a splendid thing for the com- munity and the schools when it initiated the movement for a community nurse. In the establishment of a dental clinic it has rendered another very valuable service. The practical civic spirit which can make the effort it costs to accomplish such results deserves hearty appreciation.


The report of the school nurse follows:

The school work of the community nurse grows in effi- ciency and value. In the person of Miss Gifford the Com- munity Nurse Association has a very worthy successor of those who previously held the position. Because more time and systematic effort has been given the schools, the results are unusually good.


Excellent work is being done along the lines of physical training. A well graded course in gymnastics is being given. Organized play is being developed and interest in athletic games encouraged.


24


On the theory that the beneficial results of physical training are neutralized when those taking it are under weight, Mr. Pidgeon is carrying on a "right weight-right height" campaign. Every child in the grade schools has been weighed and measured and the record placed on the class record chart. It is planned to do this monthly here- after. Reports are sent home to parents and an effort made to arouse an interest in corrective measures for seriously under weight children.


To many the weighing of school children seems a waste of time and effort. Doctor L. E. Holt, chairman of the Child Health Organization of America, says:


"By means of the scales the mother has been taught the meaning of the weight of the infant, and the importance of an increase in weight as a measure of the infant's progress in health. It is not an exaggeration to say that the manu- facturer of scales has saved more infant lives than the manu- facturer of drugs. It is the state of nutrition which the scales record, and normal nutrition spells health in an infant.


In older children also the same thing holds true. The condition of nutrition is an index of health, the best index, we believe. This is shown by the child's weight for his height, and still more by his regular progress in weight. Normal growth and development depend upon the nutrition of the body. The conditions which affect nutrition, there- fore, are the vital things which must be emphasized in health education."


The result of the first weighing is as follows:

High School.


A class of 42 graduated in June and one of 84 entered in September. The present membership of the high school is 253. Of these 181 are from Fairhaven; 46 from Matta- poisett : 21 from Acushnet, and 5 from Rochester.


Last year the attendance at this time was 250. Next fall everything indicates an enrollment of at least 275.


The problem of continued maintenance 'of a school approximating in quality the building and equipment is pri- marily a financial one. Its solution by a town that has had its high school privileges without cost for fifteen years should be immediate and in a cheerful spirit. A high school of the average type for Fairhaven pupils would cost the town annu- ally not less than $25,000, exclusive of interest on investment in building and equipment. Does it seem just to complain if asked to appropriate a small part of this sum to aid in maintaining a better one ?


The following matters of special interest connected with the high school work of the year are reported by Principal George C. Dickey as follows:


"A new Chemistry course was added to the curriculum this year. Last year only ten pupils elected Chemistry. It was felt that with the equipment of our high school this was a very small number. This year a course in Household Chemistry or Chemistry for girls, has been introduced.


"The course has been made elective in the second, third and fourth years, and has been chosen by sixteen girls. This makes a total of twenty-six pupils studying chemistry, as there are ten in the College Preparatory Course."


"Last year the High School Orchestra was re-organized, under the leadership of Mr. C. E. Jones, and an excellent beginning was made. In April the orchestra took part in the School Concert in the High School Hall.


"This year rehearsals were started the first week of school so that it was possible for the orchestra to make its first appearance on the Parents' Night held at the High School, October twenty-third.


"Because of the importance of instrumental playing and


26


because so many pupils are willing to give one and one- quarter hours weekly to rehearsing with the orchestra or to begin the study of orchestral instruments, one-quarter of a point will be given to pupils who are members of the orches- tra and who are not absent more than three times from re- hearsals. We have in the orchestra twelve violins, two cornets, one trombone, two drums, one clarinet and one cello. There seems to be an ample supply of violinists and pianists among our pupils but a scarcity of cellists, cornetists, clarinetists and trombonists. Boys and girls should be en- couraged to study these less common but important instru- ments.


"With the exception of two drums the orchestra has no instruments of its own. A way should be found to purchase instruments that will be owned by the orhcestra, as we have pupils who play certain instruments but cannot afford to pro- vide themselves with instrument of the best quality.


"The cost of instruction and music is provided by money obtained at the annuap song recital.


"Last year about $75.00 was made at this concert and was just sufficient to carry the orchestra through the year. Because of the early start this year a much larger sum will be needed. It is hoped there will be a generous response by the public to the concert to be given later."


"The classes of 1917, 1919, 1920 during the school year of 1917-18 purchased a $100.00 Liberty Bond for the purpose of obtaining a bronze tablet in memory of the F. H. S. boys who served in The World War. Last year an attempt was made to obtain a tablet for $100.00. Nothing, however, was found that was satisfactory."


"This year a series of afternoon parties have been plan- ned for the purpose of raising additional money for the pur- pose. Each class is to have one party, at which cake, candy, punch and other things are to be sold, and dancing enjoyed. At this writing the Junior and Senior Classes have had their parties. The Juniors have added about $34.00 to the fund, and the Seniors about $43.00. In addition to raising money for the tablet, these parties give the pupils of the school an


27


opportunity to meet socially which is an important part of the training of youth. An opportunity is also furnished parents and teachers to meet and become acquainted, for parents are cordially invited to attend."


"In order that parents and teachers may have an oppor- tunity to meet each other, it has been planned, this year to have at least three Parent-Teachers' Meetings. The first meet- ing was held October twenty-six and there were present about two hundred, parents and friends. A musical program was furnished by the orchestra followed by light refreshments which were served by the members of the advanced class in cooking. Parents are urged to attend these meetings as a fine opportunity is offered them to meet the teachers of the school. It is only with parental co-operation that the school can reach a high point of efficiency."


Permit ine to express to the committee my appreciation of its interest and co-operation in the work of the year.


Respectfully submitted,
