While our corps is entirely new, we have been uniformly successful in replacing good teachers with good ones, so that the work has not suffered materially, if at all.
Miss Peffers of the grammar school resigned and her place was taken by Miss Elizabeth Ham, whose long experience in' the schools of Maine fitted her admirably for successfully man- aging the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grades.
Miss Dudley asked for a year's leave of absence, which was granted, and Miss Mabel Forbush, a Framingham graduate and a teacher of experience, was selected to take her place. Miss · Forbush has shown a love for and interest in children, which has had for its recompense their enthusiastic support. She has been unusually successful in filling a serious gap left by Miss Dudley's absence.
In the outlying schools at Allbeeville, North Avenue and East Mendon, changes have taken place.
Miss Freethy resigned to accept a civil service position at the State House and her place was taken by Miss Margaret Spalton, a graduate of the Salem Normal. When the new build- ing was opened, Miss Spalton was placed in charge of the third, fourth and fifth grades there.
At the North, Miss Rockwell accepted a position at Middle- boro, Mass., and Mrs. Harry Flagg of Hopedale served most acceptably for the fall term ; Miss Stella Belcher of Medford is at present teaching that school, having the first five grades.
Miss Lillian F. Porter resigned from the East school to ac- cept a position at New Hampton, N. H., and Miss Davis, a graduate of Wellesley was elected to the vacancy. She in turn left to accept a high school position at Sherborn, Mass., and Miss Marion S. Howe, a graduate of the Framingham Normal, was elected to the vacancy.
Miss Clara H. Frederick, a graduate of Vassar was selected as assistant in the High School.
Thus we see that with the single exception of Mr. Edward
IO
F. Blood, not a teacher who was here last December is at pres- ent employed. It is a special source of satisfaction that we have been able to retain Mr. Blood, who as principal of the building with an assistant teacher in his own particular school, will have a much larger influence on Mendon schools than was possible under former conditions.
Nor is this advantage the most important one due to the new building.
Perhaps the principal one is the reduction in the number of grades to a teacher. The primary room at present contains only two grades, it being deemed wise since either the primary or intermediate rooms should be full to let the larger number of children come in the higher grades, that the little ones who require more personal attention should get it, which has never before been possible in Mendon. The improved start thus ac- quired will be of greatest advantage as the children progress. With a more thorough and careful foundation a much finer structure may be erected.
There are but three grades in the intermediate room, third, fourth and fifth, and not only has the number of grades been reduced by one, but the children are so classified that it is possi- ble to save time by combining classes in those exercises where the difference of one year is not too great to bridge.
The same condition exists in the grammar school and it must needs follow that our pupils will pass into the high school much better prepared.
With an added teacher there, it is obvious that the subjects hitherto taught in the high school may be allotted more recita- tions per week,and those recitations made longer, thereby teach- ing the old much better, and it is not only possible, but desira- ble that new branches be added to conform to the requirements for admission to the New England Colleges. With this in mind I shall submit to you before the opening of the next school year a new course of study for the Mendon High School.
The study of music under the direction of Mr. F. H. Lowell has been continued and the children have steadily improved in the reading of music and tone production. The recent purchase of new material for the high school will be of great benefit to the work in music.
I venture to again emphasize the desirability of drawing in the schools, and to express the hope that it may be introduced with the aid of a special teacher next year.
The per cent. of attendance for the year 1902-1903 compares unfavorably with that of the previous year, as a serious epidemic of measles and whooping cough broke out last winter, almost depopulating the primary room.
In closing I wish to announce that I shall be at the new
II
building every Monday of the school year, from 3.30 to 4.30, for conference with anyone who has inquiries concerning the schools.
I also wish to express my appreciation of the good work of the teachers and to.thank the committee for many kindnesses.
Respectfully submitted, HERBERT F. TAYLOR, Superintendent of Schools.

BRIEF EXTRACTS FROM EDUCATIONAL LAWS.
I. All children between 7 and 14, unless sick, feeble- minded, at an approved private school, or otherwise instructed in branches, required by law, to the satisfaction of the School Committee, must attend the public school during the entire term of each school year. Penalty to parent or guardian for failure in attendance for five days' sessions within any period of six months, $20.
2. No child under 14 shall be employed "in any. factory, workshop, or mercantile establishment." "No such child shall be employed in any work performed for wages or other com- pensation" during the hours when the public school is in session nor before six o'clock in the morning nor after seven in the evening.
3. No child under 16 shall be employed in any factory, workshop or mercantile establishment without a certificate from the Superintendent of Schools. He must present an employ- ment ticket from the person who wishes to employ him, on ap- plying for a certificate. The father, if living and a resident, must sign the certificate of age ; if not, the mother; if neither, the guardian.
4. Children between 14 and 16 must either attend school or be regularly employed.
5. Children must be vaccinated before attending school,
15
but a certificate from a regular physician, saying a child is an unfit subject for vaccination, allows attendance.
No child can attend school from a household in which there is a case of smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever or measles, or from a household exposed to a contagion from a household as aforesaid. Two weeks after the death, removal or recovery of the patient, in a case of the first three mentioned, or three days after in a case of measles, the child may return on presentation of a certificate from the attending physician or from the board of health.
6. The last regular session prior to Memorial Day, or a portion thereof, shall be devoted to exercises of a patriotic nature.
7. A United States flag not less than four feet in length shall be displayed on the schoolhouse grounds or building every school day, when the weather will permit, and on the inside of the schoolhouse on other school days.
8. A written excuse, stating cause of absence, and signed by parent or guardian, must be presented by the pupil on his re- turn to school.
9. "Every habitual school offender, that is, every child under fourteen years of age who persistently violates the reason- able regulations of the school which he attends, or otherwise persistently misbehaves therein, so as to render himself a fit sub- ject for exclusion therefrom, upon complaint by a truant officer, and conviction thereof, may be committed, if a boy at the discre- tion of the court, to a county truant school for a period not exceeding two years, or to the Lyman school for boys, and, if a girl, to the state industrial school for girls."
