A study club composed of the Principals and Superin- tendent has a definite program also. The book used is "The Individual Pupil" by Mort.


Last spring it was extremely gratifying to have Sconticut Tribe, No. 97 I. O. R. M. offer of its own initative to sponsor a drive and present a minstrel show for the benefit of the Milk Fund. The unusual thing about this was that a group of men should show so keen an interest in the health of school children. In view of the fact that funds for


30


supplying milk to needy underweight children were very low, the offer was accepted, and the Tribe is to be con- gratulated on the wonderful success of its efforts. Inasmuch as the public responded generously, it seems fitting to include here the final report of the Treasurer of the organization :

A notable event of the year was the reception given by the entire corps of Fairhaven teachers to the parents of children in the schools. The affair was held in the Town Hall during Education Week. Each school had a section which by means of screens and furniture took on the sem- blance of a reception room at home. Light refreshments


31


were served. Although the weather was inclement, fully eight hundred parents attended. A delightfully informal spirit characterized the occasion and cooperative relations between parents and teachers were strengthened.


CLOSING


"Could America make all its schools as good as its best schools the training of youth would advance during the next decade more than in the entire history of public education. A new spirit is spreading among teachers and parents. Thinking people no longer expect tomorrow to be the same as today. They do not expect the school merely to preserve the past ; they wish it to help create the future."


Respectfully submitted,


CHARLES F. PRIOR.

Report of the Librarian for the Year 1928


To the Trustees of The Millicent Library:


The report of the work of The Millicent Library for the year 1928 is herewith submitted. In its thirty-sixth year of service, a larger increase than ever before in the useful- ness of the Library is recorded. As in other libraries, our aim is to reach the whole public rather than merely a portion of it. This year, as in preceding years, we have made pro- gress toward this goal. Many new borrowers have been registered, and our patrons have taken home more books than in any other year of the Library's history. The increase in books per capita records a gain of from 8.8 in 1927 to 9.9 in 1928.
