ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
REPORT OF THE DENTAL OPERATOR
To the Board of Health, Arlington, Mass.
Gentlemen: I herewith submit the report of the work per- formed in the Dental Clinic for the year ending December 31, 1922.
Number of cases treated New cases 181
1,404
Beginning with the opening of the schools in September we went through the second grade of the Parochial and Public schools and examined the teeth of the children, numbering in all five hundred and forty-seven. Out of this number we found that three hundred and eighty-five needed immediate dental treatment and notified their parents to that effect. During the month of November we were fortunate in obtaining the loan of an exhibit from the Department of Public Health, Division of Mouth Hygiene pertaining to the care of the teeth. The requests for the loan of this exhibit are so great we were only able to keep it for a short time, and therefore could not show it in all the schools. We believe the exhibit to be of such educational value in regard to the care of teeth that we hope to be able to obtain the loan of it the coming year for a period sufficiently long to enable us to show it in all the schools.
The Clinic has had a very successful year, the receipts just about covering the cost of the material used. Each child e- ceiving treatment is instructed as to the care of their teeth and furnished with a tooth brush and paste at a nominal price.
Respectfully submitted,
MARION K. PEIRCE, Assistant to Dental Operator.

MILK INSPECTOR'S REPORT
JANUARY 29, 1923. To the Board of Health, Arlington, Mass.
Gentlemen: I herewith submit my annual report as In- spector of Milk for the year ending December 31, 1922.
The outstanding feature in milk inspection work during the past year has been the improvement noted in milk plant construction and equipment. Eight dealers have installed bottle sterilizers, and four more have equipped with holding pasteurizers. Four small dealers have made provisions for boiling bottles. So, at the present time all bottles used as con- tainers for milk sold in Arlington are sterilized.
Two-thirds of Arlington's milk supply is at present pas- teurized, and from present indications it will be only a short time before ninety per cent of our milk supply will have been so treated. This is a decided forward step and makes for public health and safety.
A summary of the year's work follows:

REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF SLAUGHTERING
JANUARY 1, 1923.
To the Board of Health, Arlington, Mass.
Gentlemen: I herewith submit my report as Inspector of Slaughtering.
As my predecessor was in office until April 1, 1922, this report starts on that date.
The hours spent on inspecting of slaughtering were two hundred and twenty hours and fifteen minutes. The quality of animals brought up for slaughtering were of the best as the figures below show:
Calves killed 1,624
Calves condemned 2 - also one forequarter and pluck.
Hogs killed 4
Hogs condemned 0
In the case of those condemned, it was due to the fact that the calves died in transit. The forequarters and pluck were condemned because lesions of tuberculosis were found in lungs.
Respectfully submitted,
F. HOLDEN SMITH, V.M.D., Inspector of Slaughtering.

The Committee's regular meetings are held on the third Tuesday of each month; in addition, ten special meetings of the full Committee have been held during the year, with a much larger number of meetings of sub-committees. Mr. Charles C. Warren, whose term expired in March, 1922, was unable, because of the pressure of other responsibilities, to continue for another term, and retired from the Committee, after a long and faithful service to the Town. The vacancy was filled by the election of Mr. Elliott R. Barker.
During the past year the school system has suffered loss by the death of a teacher with a remarkable record of service and by that of its veteran janitor. Miss Mary F. Scanlan, Principal of the Crosby School, passed away on April 19, 1922. She had nearly completed her forty-ninth year of service as a teacher in the Arlington schools. Her high qualities, as woman and teacher, will make her memory an inspiration to the large number of her former pupils. On October 5, 1922, Mr. Michael E. Callahan, janitor of the Locke School, died, after a faithful service of twenty-two years.
Early in January Mr. George C. Minard submitted his resignation as Superintendent of Schools, with the request that it take effect in June. In accepting the resignation of Mr. Minard, the Committee passed the following resolutions:
"The Arlington School Committee desires to record its deep appreciation of the loyal and efficient service rendered by George C. Minard as Superintendent of the Arlington schools.
Among the qualities that belong to a school administrator of distinction, we recognize as of peculiar importance a high
311

educational ideal, a vision of ultimate and larger ends to be attained, a patience in meeting the irritations and obstacles that surround a man who sets before himself a goal to be reached, and wisdom and tact in dealing with the varied per- sonnel represented in a public school system.
These qualities the Committee found Mr. Minard to possess in a high degree. It remembers with especial appre- ciation the fact that to them he added a spirit of helpfulness and an instinctive and unfailing courtesy, that will remain as a grateful memory with the townspeople, the Committee, the teachers and the pupils whom he served.
The Committee desires to express to Mr. Minard the wish for an enlarging success and satisfaction in the new field of work which he has chosen."
The Committee went to work at once to secure for the Town the services of a worthy successor to Mr. Minard. For more than four months it endeavored, by personal interview and by correspondence, to appraise the merits of over seventy names submitted for its consideration. Finally at its May meeting the Committee elected unanimously Mr. Chester A. Moody of New Haven. Mr. Moody began his service on July 1; the Committee has been greatly pleased with the energy, capacity and good judgment displayed by him, in dealing both with programs of education and with the financial administration of the schools.
The need of additional school accommodations is obvious from the present crowding in some of our school buildings and the steady increase of our school population. It was for that reason that your Committee asked for, and obtained at the last Town Meeting, the appointment of a committee to report on this problem. In the Crescent Hill district the need is imperative: both the Cutter and the Locke schools, in order to provide for the children in that district, are forced to make an excessive use of the platoon system. In the Crosby School district, additional accommodation must be provided within a year or two. This year, through the courtesy of the Library Trustees, we have been able, by using the library room at certain hours of the day, to relieve to a degree the congestion; such an arrangement, however, can provide only temporary

relief. At the High School, over-crowding was forseen, and provided against, by the adoption last year of the 6-3-3 plan.
The natural depreciation of school property crowded for the most part to capacity has made the work of our Repairs Committee continuous and exacting. Fire protection, also, has been systematically increased; a special hydrant has been installed near the main entrance to the High School, and fire-alarm boxes have been placed, near the entrance, in each school building. The Committee wishes to call the at- tention of the citizens to the desirability of reclaiming, as soon as possible, the Town land in the rear of the High School. Within a short time this land will be greatly needed for the necessary expansion of High School work.
The adoption of the salary schedule, made possible by the support given to your Committee by the Voters of the Town, has materially lessened the turnover in our teaching force. Teachers' salaries, however, are reported by the State Board of Education as still on the increase, and it is clear that present salary schedules will, for some time to come, have to be main- tained.
The Committee is at present seriously engaged in an at- tempt to quicken the spirit of work and raise the level of scholarship, particularly in the higher grades. Here is a matter in which all citizens of the Town can assist us: students in the upper grades of our schools cannot form proper habits of study, nor contribute to the success of their class recitations, without home study, pre-arranged for and faithfully and sys- tematically pursued. Your Committee earnestly bespeaks the serious consideration of this point by all parents. The school may interest the student in his studies; it may helpfully direct his activity and aid him in developing his powers; it cannot guarantee to develop in him the spirit of work, unless it is aided by the steady interest and support of his parents.
It is a pleasure to acknowledge the uniform courtesy and spirit of co-operation received by your Committee at the hands of the other Town boards and the Town officials.
Respectfully submitted,
A. H. RICE, Chairman.
