of fire. These districts should be provided for at once, unless a general water supply is to be introduced within a short time.
The approximate estimates of the cost of introducing the fire alarm system proved to be too low, and bids for building the system exceeded our expectations. Also several changes which were made in the streets on which the cisterns were located made changes in the plans for the cisterns necessary, and somewhat increased the cost. These unexpected expenses leave the department with outstanding bills amounting to between three hundred and fifty and four hundred dollars. The board recommends that the sum of four hundred dollars be taken from the treasury to meet these bills. The board feels less hesitation in making this recommendation since the depart- ment has not exceeded its appropriation once for fifteen years, and has for several years past annually turned in to the town sums varying from one to three hundred and fifty dollars.
The board recommends that the sum of two thousand, three hundred and fifty dollars ($2,350) be appropriated to defray the expenses of the department for the ensuing year.
In conclusion the board thanks the individual members of the department for the prompt manner in which they have per- formed their duties.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE CEMETERY.
At the beginning of the year Mr. James A. Bancroft was appointed Superintendent of the Cemetery, and he has had the care of the grounds and avenues. These are in good condition.
NEW RECEIVING TOMB.
In accordance with the instructions of the town, and after due consideration it was decided to locate the new tomb in the north side of "Locust Hill." Messrs. James A. Bancroft and Edward Appleton were chosen by the Board as a committee to prepare plans and specifications, and they were subsequently chosen to make the contracts for and to supervise the building of the tomb.
The contract for building was awarded to Messrs. W. W. Nason & Co., they being the lowest bidders.
This work has been well done and the town now has a plain but substantial structure of sufficient size to meet all demands for many years hence.
The sum expended for this purpose has fallen within the appropriation made by the town.
A full statement of such expense and also of all other ex- penses connected with the care of the cemetery will be found in the Reports of the Selectmen and Treasurer.
A tool house has been built and placed in the northerly part of the cemetery, and a fence separating the grounds from land of Mr. J. A. Hamilton has been constructed at joint expense (one half each).
REMARKS.
During the coming year the face wall on Main street near land of Mr. Thomas Jeffrey should be repaired, and it will also be necessary to do some further concreting on the avenues.
The present hearse house which has been in use for many years is inadequate for the proper care of the hearse.
It could be replaced by a larger one at small expense, while
51
the old one could be used for other purposes in a different location.
The stone posts should also be reset at the south gate.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
We would therefore recommend that a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars together with the proceeds of the sale of lots, be raised and appropriated by the town for the care of the cemetery, all needed repairs and the building of a new hearse house.
We would also recommend that in the use of the new tomb the following " Rules " be adopted : -
1st. That all bodies placed in the tomb should be removed on or before May 1st of each year.
2nd. That all bodies not so removed, shall after due notice. of at least one week be removed by the town.
3rd. That from May 1st to November 1st of each year, bodies shall not remain in the tomb for a longer time than one week each.
4th. Bodies of those persons who have died of contagious diseases shall not be placed in the tomb.
At the present time there are several vacant lots of land between the north boundary of the cemetery and Federal street. As the lots in the present cemetery are being rapidly taken, we would suggest that the Trustees be authorized to negotiate for the purchase of said lots, and to report to the town at a subsequent meeting for what amount these lots could be purchased by the town.

In accordance with the Public Statutes chap. 46, sec. 8, we submit the following report :
CHANGES IN TEACHERS.
In our last report we were obliged to report many changes in our corps of Teachers. This year we have been more for- tunate ; instead of thirteen changes as reported last year, we have only four this year,-all in the High School excepting Miss Winnefred Emerson, who is at the Main street school.
HIGH SCHOOL.
At the commencement of the Fall term in September, the school opened under the principalship of Mr. Wilson R. Butler formerly of the High School of Warren, Rhode Island, who came to us after several years of very successful experience in that place.
He has been ably assisted by Miss Olive A. Prescott, who has served us so acceptably in the past and Miss Carrie E. Berry, who had for several years been a prominent teacher in the town of Andover, and whose services we were able to procure only because she wished to change her field of work.
Some alteration was made in the course of study at the be- ginning of the year. We have now, as will be seen by refer- ence to the course of study as printed elsewhere, three courses : An English course, an English Latin course, and a Latir course.
The Committee is sensible to the fact that there has been a growing demand that our High School should fit pupils for such institutions as the Institute of Technology, Lawrence Scientific School, and also that we should be able to fit pupils for Harvard College or other institutions of a similar character.
Many pupils after graduating have entered the Normal Schools at Salem and Bridgewater, but those pupils who wished
58
to enter College were obliged to go elsewhere to get the neces- sary instruction.
This want we have now met in such a way that nothing will be lost from the English course.
This does not mean that every time-killer that barely squeezes through our course with just high per cent. enough to graduate will be able to gain admittance to any of our higher institutions. But it does mean that any active, ambitious boy or girl who is determined to work and has the pluck and brain to do it, will have every opportunity and the required help to gain the de- sired end.
It is hoped that the parents will, when their children enter the High School, give time and thought to the consideration of which course it is best for them to pursue.
It is sometimes, we fear, settled without due consideration ; often left to the child's wish, feeling or fancy.
We know from personal knowledge that studies have been dropped because they were difficult, or taken simply because they were easy or " the study was not liked." If the subject is not thought to be practical or useful - will not aid us in our after life - is less useful than some other, well and good, but is it fair and just to our children to allow freedom of choice simply on account of ease or dislike either for the subject or the teacher who happens to teach it. The interests involved deserve our most careful and profound consideration. The future well being of our children may be at stake on our decision.
One example will suffice. The tendency not to pursue Latin was very marked at the beginning of the year in the entering class " on account of the impracticability of the study to busi- ness life." In fact it was not considered a " bread and butter study," and time could be better spent than in the study of Latin.
What does the result show ? Are those who did not take
59
the study more advanced in other subjects than those pupils who did study Latin? Strange as it may seem, just the reverse is true. Those pupils who take Latin are on the average better in the English studies, and they have derived the benefit of the drill and discipline in the Latin besides.
Who are the gainers? Other examples might be given of subjects purely English which have been rejected by the pupil for the most frivolous reasons. A good physical mental and moral character cannot be built without hard work.
While we believe that the work done in our schools has been during the past year of a higher grade than last year, yet we still think that we have not reached the high plane on which we ought to rest.
What an influence would emanate from our High School if we had a few earnest young men and women there preparing to enter college !
In any community the quality of the lower schools is raised by the efficiency of the higher. In fact, Harvard was the be- ginning of our school system.
COURSE OF STUDY.
The course of study as mapped out has been tried nearly two years ; as a whole it seems to work well, but alterations will have to be made in it as occasion requires.
As the number of pupils increase, the need of a carefully prepared course of study becomes more apparent, to the end that the teacher's time and force shall be used in the best possi- ble way for the greatest good to the greatest number. While educators all agree that systematic grading is a necessity, yet the system should be as elastic as possible, in order that the bright, able pupil when he reaches the stage where the grade ceases to supply him with the proper intellectual nutriment, can be advanced to the next grade. The course of study
1
60
should be our servant and never our master. The course is made for the pupil not the pupil for the course. A quotation from the report of Supt. Thomas M. Balliet of Springfield is pertinent : " It will, probably, always be necessary to pro- mote pupils from grade to grade at the end of the year by classes, yet a course of study ought to be so graded that individual pupils may be able to pass readily into a higher grade at any time in the year when they may show themselves able to do the work of such grade.
The public schools have no right to sacrifice the brighter children to the duller ones. No child able to do with advant- age the work of a higher grade ought to be kept back for the sake of duller classmates. This is an ideal which, in spite of the complex machinery of a large public school system, can be realized more nearly than might at first appear possible, by a proper grading of the course of study. It is a serious mistake to grade the work in a course of study by topics, and to require that one topic in any given study be finished before another is begun. On the contrary, we ought to teach in the primary school the elements of as many different topics in the various branches as possible, and then, as the pupil advances, let the work widen and become more and more difficult. 3 In this way the pupil, as he passes from grade to grade seldom meets with anything wholly new to him, but feels that he has had the ele- ments in the lower grade of what he now studies more thor- oughly in detail in the higher."
President Eliot, of Harvard College, voices the same idea when he says that it is the mistake of teachers to expect chil- dren to finish subjects thoroughly.
Childhood never can finish any subject, manhood only can be expected to do that.
In our systematizing courses of study we must guard against losing sight of the aim of all education-the individual.
61
MILITARY DRILL.
We stated in our last report that we had adopted military drill as one of the regular exercises in the High School, and that we should watch with considerable interest to see whether it tends to elevate the tone of the school as regards law, order and good government.
We are pleased to state that it has in a measure met the de- sired results, and we expect ere long that it will attain to our highest hopes, and become a positive benefit to the young men in the High School, aiding them materially in maintaining a strong physique and a high moral character.
Professor Tucker says that " a fortune can be made in a day, but a great moral purpose is a thing of time, it must begin with the boy." Anything in the school life of a pupil that will ele- vate his manhood has value in it.
PROMOTIONS.
The most difficult as well as the most delicate problem with which we have to deal is the matter of promotions at the end of the year. How shall it be done in order to do justice and increase the efficiency of the schools and not discourage and dishearten the slow and plodding pupils, and yet satisfy the active and the brilliant? The methods pursued in different parts of the country are legion. Many rely too much on writ- ten examinations, which are only one test and not always the best to determine a pupils' capacity for the next grade of work.
We have in several cases promoted on probation. Most of the pupils promoted in that way have been able to do satisfac- tory work and go on with the class ; a few only have returned to do the work over again.
We are pleased to record the kind and firm spirit with which nearly all the parents have assisted the teachers and committee in raising the standard of our schools.
62
If a pupil cannot or will not do the work properly in one grade he ought not to be advanced to the next.
SCHOOLHOUSES.
The town at the last annual meeting voted a special appro- priation for the schoolhouse at Chestnut Hill. New floors have been laid, the old double seats removed and new single desks and chairs put in, the walls tinted and ceiling whitened. Both rooms are heated by a furnace instead of stoves, as formerly.
An unexpended balance of $55.72 remains on the appropri- ation for this work, and this is required to complete certain work connected with the heating and ventilation of the build- ing, which the Committee desire to carry out when the weather permits the abandonment of fire in the furnace.
For this reason we ask the re-appropriation of this unex- pended balance.
APPROPRIATIONS.
The Committee recommend that the town raise and appro- priate the sum of $9.800 for regular school expenses, which includes according to State statute, teachers' salaries, fuel, care of building.
They also recommend that $1,800 be raised and appropriated for incidental school expenses, including the purchase of text- book supplies ; $1,800 together with the annexed balance of $55.72 remaining from the special appropriation made for re- pairs at the Chestnut Hill School, this unexpended balance being required to complete work there, as before stated.
Attention is especially called to the statistics and to the report of receipts and expenditures contained in the appendix.
