double desks have been manufactured for the new Orange street house. Twenty-eight secondary desks were put into a room in East Worcester in place of the primary desks taken out, making in all four hundred and thirty six (436) double, and fifty-six (56) single desks manufac- tured during the year. The teachers' tables are also manufactured in the same way, as are also all chalk era- sers, pointers, window openers, &c.


WORK SHOP WANTED.


From the statements above made, it is evident that a work shop is much needed by the department. All of this work has been done in a small shop belonging to Mr. Fletcher, the man employed to do the work. This shop is too small for the purpose. Room is needed, not only to do the work, but to store lumber, which could then be bought in larger quantities and seasoned. Be- sides, there are a large number of articles belonging to the school department, scattered about in the different school buildings, liable to be broken and destroyed. Sec- ond hand desks, are wanted from time to time in school rooms temporarily, when there are more scholars than permanent seats. It is necessary to keep spare desks on hand to supply these exigencies, and we have no proper place for storage. There should also be a place for the storage of spare stoves, and the fixtures belonging to them. Many times new articles are pur- chased when we have them on hand, but do not know it for the reason that they are scattered among the various school houses.


A building for this purpose in some convenient locality, would be a matter of economy.


COAL versus WOOD.


By a comparison of the cost of fuel in houses in which coal is used, with those heated by wood, it will appear


108


that the cost for warming a room by wood is about twenty-five per cent. higher than in those warmed by coal. This fact will appear by referring to the table of detailed expenses for each school.


Coal is used in Pleasant St., Sycamore St., East Wor- cester, Mason St., New Worcester and the High School. Wood is used in Ash St., Summer St., Main St., Front St., East Worcester, (old house) Elm St., South Worcester, Quinsigamond, and in all the Suburban districts. In Thomas St. house, coal stoves have been substituted for wood and the furnaces in the four upper rooms during this winter.


New " Morning Glory" coal stoves have been put into the following houses during the year, viz. : Provi- dence St., eight, (8) High School, five, (5) Orange St., two, (2) Ash St., one, (1) Summer St., one, (1) Thomas St., four, (4) in all twenty-one, (21) at an expense of about seventy-five dollars ($75) each. These stoves are in all respects undoubtedly the most convenient and economi- cal of any pattern yet used. With ordinary care they can be run through the entire winter without being obliged to rebuild a fire. No time of the teacher or schol- ar is taken up in bringing coal or attending the fires, the stove needing replenishing but once a day, which is done by the janitor. The teacher has only to regulate the draughts through the day, and they can be regulated so as to keep an even temperature in the coldest or warmest winter day.


. We would recommend an entire substitution of coal for wood stoves in all the school houses now heated by wood, except perhaps in the remote suburban districts.


RETURNS OF SCHOOL PROPERTY.


A complete system of accountability for school prop- erty has been established during the past year, as men- tioned in the Superintendent's report, in form as follows:

The law provides for the furnishing of the children of


By these returns every article of school property is to be accounted for, the returns are put upon record in a book prepared for the purpose and a comparison made, one school with another. The knowledge of this fact alone, serves to prevent unnecessary waste of property, by showing in what schools the greatest care is exercised; and if there is negligence and waste, it will show itself, its location will be known and the remedy can be applied.

poor parents with school books at the expense of the city. Every book thus furnished is, by the return of books, accounted for, with the name of the parent of the child and the residence. Particular inquiry is made in each instance, and if it is found that the child furnished has a father living who is able to work, the book or books are charged in the tax bill of the father, if the amount cannot be collected otherwise. A number of books were thus charged and paid for in the last year's taxes, and the parents thus finding they will be compelled to pay for the school books for their children, are more willing to pro- cure them when required. The children of poor widows who are obliged to labor for the support of themselves and children, are furnished with school books at the ex- pense of the city.

We have been thus particular in giving the expenses of the schools in detail, and a full exhibit of the workings of the Department, the amount and value of the Real Estate and other property in the charge of the Board, in order to present to our citizens, especially the tax payers, the importance of the trust imposed upon us in a financial view, and to show in what manner the large amount of money raised for school purposes is expended.


Thirty-three (33) per cent of the total ordinary expenditures of the city are for the support of schools. This is no larger, relatively, than it has been for years past. We are a growing city, and while we advance so rapidly in population, more money will be needed, from year to year, for the support of schools. But at the same time, the property of the city, upon which the tax is levied, is increasing, so that the burden of taxation for education will be no heavier than it has been.
