Total extraordinary expenditures, $12,998 73
For five successive years I have attempted to explain the rapid increase in the' expenditure of this department, and ex- pressed the belief that in all probability the wants of the next year would be less than the last. This year I can only say that the expenditures have been larger than ever before, and if the city increases in population as fast for the year to come, as for the five years past, we can expect no decrease in the expenditures for schools and school houses, and every good citizen will hope that the reason and call will be answered with the same generous liberality as has been manifested in years past.
One encouraging fact should, however, be stated. For at least twenty years past, and I presume it might be said, at no time has this community been so well supplied with comfort- able school accommodations as at present, or at least as they will be upon the completion of the Belmont Street school house and the new High School building.
A new building for eight or ten Schools on the Mechanic

SECRETARY'S REPORT.
Street Burying-ground, and a new house for two schools for the accommodation of the Valley Falls and Jamesville districts would furnish, with the spare room in other buildings, suffici- ent accommodations for all our present scholars, and enable us to dispense with the present uncomfortable building on the common and the old school house at East Worcester, in which last named house is crowded, on an average, about two hundred and fifty scholars, in two small, low-studded, uncom- fortable rooms. The old Common or Park isno place for a school house, and it might be added, with truth, that for a year or two past it has not been kept in condition to be a fit location for a school house, or to serve any other useful pur- pose, except, it may be, as a convenient dumping ground for city rubbish.
Nearly thirteen thousand dollars put down above as "Extra- ordinary Expenditures" was expended for purposes for which a separate appropriation should have been made by the City Council,-with the exception perhaps of $575 for books and apparatus for new Schools,-and should come under the head of School Houses, or Public Buildings, and not be charged to the appropriation for the support of schools. It is not so included in any other city within my knowledge, neither was it formerly so charged in this city. Until within six years the City Council would make an appropriation for the building of a new school house and also for the furnishing of the same. The house would be completed and furnished, the lot graded and fenced, everything in readiness for occupation by the schools before being put in charge of the School Department.
But now the City Council simply buys a lot, puts a house thereon, and passes it over to the School Department unfur- nished and in many cases unfinished, and even with the lot ungraded. The necessary furniture, including heating appa- ratus, various small details of finishing necessary for school purposes, and the grading of the lot is left for the officers of this department to attend to, and pay the expense out of the appropriation for the support of schools. People abroad, and our own citizens also, do not take this into account, in com- paring the expenditures for the support of schools in this city,

SECRETARY'S REPORT.
with the expenditures in other places, in which the large amounts above referred to are not included.
The furnishing of the school rooms should, properly, be left to the school officers, as they know best what is wanted. The school desks, teachers' desks, etc., are manufactured at the Department Shop at a much less price than they could be procured elsewhere, but the expense should be met by a special appropriation for that purpose, as also the expense of extraordinary repairs of buildings.
That the rapid growth of our city has received no check during the last year is evident from the fact that at the close of the half-term ending Dec. 31st, 1870, there were seven hun- dred and twenty-four more scholars in the public schools than there were at the close of the half-term ending December 24, 1869.
I will here repeat, as equally true to-day, what was said in my last year's report :- "Although generally business is not as good at present, as it has been for a few years past, yet such is the confidence in the continued rapid growth of the city, that there has never been in its history so much building of dwellings, blocks, and manufacturing establishments as there is at the present time. And the prospect for its continuance the coming season was never better."
