TOWN OF NORWELL
Report of the Principal
To the Superintendent of Schools
Mr. Willard B. Spalding :
I present my annual report for the Norwell High and Gram- mar Schools for the year of 1932.
There have been few changes in the administrative routine of School. The curriculum for the year was ably planned by Mr. Payne who has moved to Hamilton as Principal of that high school. His careful planning and experimentation are now bearing fruit.
The Senior Class of 1932 was one of the largest ever grad- uated from Norwell. It numbered twenty; eleven boys and nine girls. The class was especially well balanced, there being equal proportions of athletes, literary lights and actors.
None of the classes took a trip of any magnitude. The Senior Class had a one day trip, and some of the other classes had after school picnics at the beaches. This was caused for the most part by the desire to avoid unnecessary expense. This practice will be continued until conditions warrant a change.
The operetta "The Gypsy Rover" which was to have been presented April 8, 1932 was postponed. It will be presented this year. The training afforded the members in a production of this sort is very valuable and cannot be overemphasized.
Mr. Booth presented this year the play "In the Next Room." This was slightly different from other plays of the past, in that it was a mystery play. It was however very enjoyable and well conceived. Mr. David Sausser gave some valuable as- sistance. Miss Stiles also aided Mr. Booth in this work.
The graduation exercises began Sunday, June 19. The Rev. Alfred Wilson gave a very excellent baccalaureate ad- dress, which was attended by the senior class and the faculty. Senior Class Day exercises were held Monday, June 20. The exercises were preceded by a banquet, the class of 1927 being
92
EIGHTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
guests of honor. Appropriate remarks were given by Norman Robbins, Charles Holden, and Mr. Payne. The spirit fostered by the class banquets is fine, both for the school and the graduates.
Athletically, 1932 was satisfactory. The basketball team, coached by Mr. Daggett, tied for second place in the South Shore league. The high school did not send a team to Brock- ton for the tournaments, as the expense, and drain on the re- sources of the boys offset the benefits. The girls' teams. coached by Miss White, enjoyed a fine season. Even though out of the running as far as championship honors were concerned, the spirit and sportsmanship showed by the girls were a tribute to Miss White's leadership. The baseball season was satis- factory also, Norwell tying for third place. The girls and boys basketball teams are coached this year by Miss Stiles and Mr. Jackman respectively and bid fair to have a successful season.
The graduation number of "The Shipbuilder" was the best ever produced in the high school, and compares very favor- ably with publications of larger schools. Even though more expensive than usual, the paper due to advertising, and fine support by townsfolk, was a financial success. Too much credit for this fine work cannot be given Mr. Payne. He has established something which I trust will endure. A graduation number of the paper, conditions permitting, will be published this year.
The three town speaking contest was held this year at the Norwell High School. The trophy was won this year by Han- son, this giving each of the schools a leg on the cup. The classes in music led by Mrs. Pansy Stetson, presented very pleasing musical numbers, which were enjoyed by a large and attentive audience. The improved performance of those who had participated previously showed the value of this project, and bears out our late Superintendent Jackman's belief in it.
The Home Economics Department under the supervision of Miss White has been as efficient as ever. Daily lunches are prepared for the pupils in the building, and in addition the children at the Ridge Hill School and Center School have a
93

hot dish. This is a new plan, having been adopted this year, but it is valuable and helpful to the pupils.
Two new members have been added to the teaching force. Miss Stiles replacing Miss Meyers as English teacher and Mr. Jackman replacing Mr. Daggett. Both have fitted in nicely and are co-operating in every way. In fact every member of the teaching corps has given every assistance possible.
The thrift record is a source of pride to the Norwell Schools. At the close of last year we lead our division in this state. This year we have had a perfect record. This furnishes an incentive to the pupils and helps form a valuable habit.
In closing I wish to thank you, Mr. Spalding, for the help and advice you have given me. I also wish to thank the teachers for their help in keeping the schools functioning as we wish them to function, and as the townspeople have a right to expect them.
Respectfully submitted,
PHILIP DAGGETT.
Supervisor of Music
To the Superintendent of Schools
Mr. Willard Spalding :
I submit with pleasure my annual report as Music Super- visor of Norwell Schools.
Music, unlike other arts is intangible.
Perhaps nothing in a child's life more closely approaches the spiritual consciousness than a dawning sense of pure music.
Nothing that human art has made is nearer to an ideal of perfection than is music, and when the love of music wakes in the heart of the child this love or appreciation may open the heart to a higher influence.
One object of public school music is to create a love of good music in the child through the experience of singing and through listening. The more knowledge of music a child has, the greater is his enjoyment and understanding of beautiful things.
Each teacher has a course of study and outlines of technical problems and the work in all the grades is being conducted according to schedule.
The first grades have learned the usual number of rote songs and have begun the study of the scale in preparation for note reading ; the second year continues rote singing and note read- ing and in January the study of skips is introduced, and word reading is emphasized.
The third and fourth years continue the reading of syllables and works in more advanced stage including key names and time problems ; in the following year grade five, two part music is stressed with the interchanging of soprano and alto that each pupil may receive ear training. Time problems and chro-
95
TOWN OF NORWELL
matics are included in this grade. This work is reviewed in the sixth grade with the presentation of three part music.
The junior high pupils have music twice a week and the senior chorus but once, so it is impossible to make rapid progress in the upper classes. However, the Senior Chorus will sing two songs at the Republican Woman's Club at the January meeting and in April, they will present the operetta which was intended to be given last year.
Miss Mary Quin of Quincy is teaching violin in the high school building, and ten pupils began lessons in November.
We are glad to report this progress in instrumental work. The orchestra continues to meet Wednesdays after school for rehearsal.
It is with deep appreciation of the helpful attitude of teachers and school officials that I close my report of 1932.
Respectfully submitted, PANSY B. STETSON.
Supervisor of Drawing
To the Superintendent of Schools
Mr. Willard Spalding :
The following is my report for the work in the Drawing Department of the Norwell Schools.
Today we are witnessing the influence of good design. Not only are manufacturers producing useful commodities, but they are at the same time selling us things of beautiful pro- portions. It is within the reach of everyone to surround him- self with beautiful as well as useful necessities. It is with expressed intention that we train our boys and girls to under- stand fine design. It is our hope that they will leave us equipped with a fuller appreciation of the beautiful and will avail them- selves of this great opportunity of having homes and acces- sories that are good in line, form, and color.
During the past year the art classes in the high school have co-operated with the other departments, by supplying posters, decorations and by aiding whenever art judgment and help was needed.
. Two exhibitions of students' work were held. At graduation the work of all the schools was displayed in the high school. In August our annual exhibition at the Marshfield Fair was hung.
In closing I wish to thank all members of the school sys- tem for their continued loyalty and enthusiasm.
Respectfully submitted,
H. RODMAN BOOTH.

As a direct result of the Chadwick Clinic held in the schools during the past year, 1 case of pulmonary tuberculosis was found and the pupil hospitalized in Westfield. In the pre-school
98
EIGHTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
clinic an X-Ray was recommended for one of the entering class which resulted in this pupil also being given proper hospital treatment and care.
Every day between 75 to 85 children in the primary schools are having the hot lunch provided for them through the assist- ance of various organizations, school authorities, teachers, and parents. It is of interest to note that the average gain of these children exceeds by two pounds the gain in weight made by them during the same period of time last year.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank the Superintendent, School Committee, teachers, and parents, who have co-operated in the health work in the schools.

School Dentist
Superintendent of Schools,
Norwell, Mass.
Dear Sir :
I trust the following report of the activities of the dental clinic will give the citizens of Norwell a brief outline of what we have accomplished in the past year :
Fillings in permanent teeth 464
Fillings in temporary teeth 113
Permanent teeth extracted 10
Temporary teeth extracted 65
Teeth treated 15
Root fillings 1
Number of cleansings 116
Number of completed cases 114
During the month of July a pre-school clinic was held, twenty school children receiving certificates that all necessary dental work had been completed.
The morning sessions of the clinic have been given over to the first four grades and the afternoon sessions to the fifth and sixth grades. Emergency work only is done on the upper grades at present, but before the end of the year it is hoped to include some from the seventh and eighth grades. The following is our list of completed cases since school opened in September :
Ridge Hill 1st and 2nd grades (all but 1).
Ridge Hill 3rd and 4th grades (9 out of 22).
Grade V-Mrs. Cole's room (20 out of 29). Grade VI-Mrs. Pinson's room (12 out of 25).
Center Primary 1st and 2nd grades (12 out of 25).
Center Primary 3rd and 4th grades (9 out of 24).

Home Economics
With a definite purpose in mind to impart to the pupils prac- tical experience for use in the home, the cooking classes have made an intensive study of the preservation of foods. In connection with these lessons they canned tomatoes and made jelly.
From a hostess standpoint, the classes have studied menu planning, table setting and service. Class problems, and actual experience gained in class, have provided the pupils with an opportunity to more clearly understand this feature of the cooking classes.
With members of the cooking classes assisting in preparing lunch, gaining much in the way of practical experience, pupils of the Ridge Hill and Center Schools have been served a hot dish at noon. This added duty on the part of the Home Eco- nomics Department was introduced November 7.
The purpose of the sewing classes has been to concentrate attention toward giving helpful training and practical sugges- tions to the pupils for use at home. The school, considering its size, is fortunate to be so well equipped. It has one electric, and one non-electric sewing machine; one iron and ironing board ; one full length mirror.
The first year class, which is one in elementary sewing, is taught proper methods in pattern cutting, the use of sewing machines, mending and darning. The advanced class makes underwear, dresses, and this year plans to foster and promote a practical lesson, the making of dresses for younger sisters.
