Another portion of our work, which has been, and will increas- ingly be, not only of great interest, but as well of great value, is what may be called Music Appreciation. We have not yet seen fit so to christen it however, although, in my belief, what is being done along this line merits this dignified appelation more than more formal attempts in the same direction.
A prominent educator has recently written a book entitled "Creative Music for Children," which has captured the attention and interest of many superintendents and supervisors of music. I am convinced that very interesting results may be obtained from such work, and am anxious to try some of the simple projects mentioned. Through this, we should be able to enlarge and make more interesting and instructive our work with toy orchestras in the first stages; and later carry such work on through the grades. With many critics of this phase of school music, I agree that every time one sings, he is creating, or at least re-creating music; but, as an appeal to initiation and individual expression, I believe that this new aspect of creative music in schools is distinctly well worth our serious consideration.
The Junior High School
The music here is steadily improving at this time and should be second to none if present progress continues. Voices have been tested and pupils assigned to sing the most suitable part. The seventh grade is doing good three-part chorus singing ; the eighth and ninth grades hand- ling four-part music. General principles of the work covered in the Grade Schools are reviewed.
Note books in Music Appreciation are being started, and we hope for a good exhibition of them later, although our greatest interest is not in the excellence of the books, but in the fact that through this work, our boys and girls are learning by a greater knowledge and experience to more keenly enjoy. and understand (i. e .- appreciate) their music.
154
The orchestra is doing very good work. It is larger than last year (now numbering about twenty), but not yet sufficiently varied in instrumentation.
The Senior High School
I do not believe there are many who can possibly realize under what a handicap the Music Supervisor works here, because of so many school activities going on at the same time, many of which have been long and firmly established. Music seems to stand in the background by comparison but having won through a similar situation, I am confi- dent that time, patience, and constant endeavor will bring it to its proper place.
The Junior and Senior choruses each meet once a week for a thirty minute period. The Girls' Glee Club of fifty voices, recently organized, rehearses twice weekly and shows most commendable pro- gress. They are to give a concert February 9th in combination with the orchestra. A double male quartet has been organized also which will have its initial hearing at the concert. It is hoped that this quartet will prove to be the nucleus of a Boys' Glee Club.
The Orchestra is doing splendid work and has played at several school functions this year. Rehearsals are held twice weekly. There are plenty of good players who will not join the Orchestra. This is a deplorable condition and one which we are striving to overcome.
I regret to report that time cannot be arranged so that courses in Music Appreciation and Harmony may be taught. To paraphrase, this Supervisor is willing, but the High School program is unyielding.
The operetta which we hoped to give last year was dropped, due, among other things, to lack of interest among the pupils.
To sum up, the Grade Schools are well organized and running smoothly, with the Junior and Senior High Schools showing com- mendable progress.
I earnestly hope that in the near future the School Board will again consider the matter of allowing instrumental class instruction after school hours. I believe that such instruction would prove to be of very great value to the student and as an aid in the development of our school music in general.
I greatly appreciate the spirit of co-operation which is so evident throughout the schools, and particularly do I wish to express to you, sir, for your great kindness, inspiring assistance and advice, my most sincere thanks.
Respectfully submitted,
C. FRANCIS WOODS, Supervisor of Music.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF PENMANSHIP 1927
Mr. Adelbert L. Safford,
Superintendent of Schools,
Reading, Mass.
Dear Mr. Safford :- I take pleasure in submitting to you my first report as Supervisor of Penmanship in the Reading Schools, although it should be said, perhaps, that this is not so much a report as a statement of what is being established and of plans for the future.
Zaner says, "Good writing is more than an accomplishment; it is a modern need, the passport to good business positions. No one has a moral right to write illegibly, for it means a waste of time to both writer and reader."
Good penmanship, like elocution or music, is an accomplishment that is always in demand. Of late years, more time has been devoted to the development of good writing in the public schools. By establish- ing freedom in arm movement in the early grades, pupils are enabled to become efficient business writers.
Arm movement writing means better health than is possible in the slow, cramped writing of the past. Under the modern system, the children are taught to keep healthful posture. The body erect so as to grow straight; the lungs have a chance to expand, and the hand is held in a comfortable as well as a natural position, thus establishing close correlation between the penmanship work and that of physical training.
Besides this, arm movement means more written work in less time, because the pupils are taught not only to write legibly, but rapidly as well.
The main essentials to good writing are begun in the primary grades. These are, first, a healthful position; second, plainness of form, this being given special emphasis; and third, arm movement. By carefully carrying out these essentials through all the grades, success may readily be secured.
The Zaner System of Arm Movement Writing is being estab- lished through-out the schools. Great interest is being shown by pupils and teachers alike which means that the desired results are bound to be attained.
The progress in real handwriting in the grades this year may seem somewhat slow, owing to the fact that a new system is being introduced and that we are endeavoring to establish a foundation upon which real progress can be based.
In the Junior High School, however, marked results have already been noted as shown by the fact that 40 students have already been
156
awarded certificates of proficiency by the Zaner Co. Of this number, 12 have won the highest certificate given to a student.
On the whole, it has been most gratifying to work in the schools of Reading because of the cheerful co-operation shown by all those with whom I have worked.
Let me thank both teachers and principals for endeavoring to make the work a success, the pupils for their wholehearted enthusiasm, and you, Mr. Safford, for your helpful assistance and loyal support.
Respectfully submitted,
MARGARET A. CAMERON.
