Item 8 is based on actual estimates of articles required for immediate use.
Item 9 is increased slightly to cover increased cost of printing, stationery and other supplies.
Item 10, Fuel, is a problem. During the year 1916 we were fortunate in obtaining a favorable contract but deliv- eries have been slow and uncertain. Present local prices are double the contract price. The estimate of $4,500 is made on the assumption that our present contractor will supply us at the contract price until next June, and that we can secure a new contract at an advance of not more than $2.00 per ton. The present contract is at the rate of $4.90 per long ton, f. o. b. Reading, and we pay 50 cents per ton for teaming to the schoolhouses. We have been unable to get a shipment of coal during the last three weeks and have not secured a reliable price for next summer's supply. In view of these facts, the amount estimated is very con- servative.
Item 11, Building Maintenance, is increased barely enough to cover increased prices in nearly every direction.
326
The price of removing ashes was recently advanced 20% and 33 1-3% increase was asked for. We have four more rooms than last year to supply and care for. Floor oil has advanced 40%, paper towels one-third, and toilet paper at least 50%.
Item 12, Repairs, is estimated at the same amount as was spent last year, although the prices of materials and labor have increased, and we have already had two considerable items of expense under this head this year, in repairs to the boiler at Chestnut Hill and in necessary changes in the science room at the Highland School. If this item were increased a thousand dollars, the money could be prudently and economically expended at once.
The deficit of $460 was occasioned by the unexpected advance in the cost of fuel and all kinds of materials, by the added cost of opening the four new rooms, for which nothing special was included in last year's budget, by the increased size of the science classes, particularly advanced Physics and advanced Chemistry in the High School, and by certain unforseen expenses in the repairs and alterations of the buildings. These additional expenses were in part offset by unusually large receipts. The deficit represents the balance.
The special items for scientific apparatus are based on definite requirements for work already begun which will of necessity be greatly hampered, or brought to a standstill, if this very conservative amount is not made available.
The lighting fixtures for the several schools are felt to be a necessity for safety and for the well-being of pupils and teachers. Also without them it is difficult for the jani- tors to take proper care of the buildings.
The payment of tuition to Industrial Schools is made compulsory by state law whether a special appropriation is made or not. We have no choice in the matter.
These estimates have been prepared with the greatest care with a constant purpose to reduce them to the lowest
327
point possible without seriously impairing or interrupting the work of the schools. We therefore hope that your Honorable Board will recommend to the Town the appropri- ation of the amount specified.
Very respectfully submitted by order of the School Committee,
ADELBERT L. SAFFORD, Supt. of Schools.
