teachers have these exercises adapted to music and are accompanied on the victrola.


All of this work is carried out according to outlines prepared by the State Board of Education. The more recent graduates from the Normal School are especially prepared for teaching this subject.


Health. Closely allied with physical education is the health of the pupil. I take this opportunity of saying that I approve of the work which the School Nurse is doing in Tewksbury, and commend to you her report which follows:


In accordance with statute law the retarded children have been thoroughly examined by a physician in the employ of the State and recommendations made for the physical and mental care of those children who were found to need especial treatment.


No-School Signal. The No-School Signal is now given at 7.45 o'clock by the whistle at the State Institution. This signal will be given only when very stormy or when the travelling is very bad. It is unfortunate that signal has to be given so early, as it often hap- pens that the storm is over by nine o'clock, or on the other hand, nine o'clock shows a severe storm which was not anticipated at the time of giving the signal.


I wish the schools to be in session every day that is suitable for the children to get to the buildings, on the other hand, I do not wish the pupils to attend when the bad weather would be a menace to their health. Attempts to guess right on weather probabilities is trying to the nerves of the Superintendent and the patience of the parent.


Club Work. The following is quoted from a report of Mr. Robert Trask, Director:


"Two splendid Junior Leaders have been developed in this town during the year club work has been carried on; Velma Trull in North Tewksbury and Marion Foster in Tewksbury Centre. These girls, through their own personality have gathered together clubs in canning and home ceonomics and have done very effective work. Both of these girls were awarded a two-day trip to the Massachusetts Agri- cultural College.


The leadership of Miss Hersey in the North Tekwsbury School has been exceedingly valuable and the co-operation of the principal and school nurse in the Centre have made it possible to establish a very successful lunch box club in that community.


The garden and corn clubs being so scattered no regular meet- ings could be held, but every member was visited four or five times during the year."


Parent-Teachers. Since my last report a Parent-Teachers Asso- ciation has been organized, and is being carried on successfully. This is very pleasing to me as I believe in the closest union possible be- tween the home and the school.


111


Educational Day. In accordance with state wide plans our schools observed Educational Day. Parents and friends were especially invited to the various rooms to listen to the ordinary school work and to specially prepared programs. Rev. George F. Sturtevant of this town gave an interesting and inspirational address to several classes at the Foster School on the value in life of an education.


Penmanship. With a view to stimulating interest in penmanship several contests are now going on among the various schools of the district, which of course applies to Tewksbury. These contests are in the nature of an athletic rivalry which shall continue throughout the winter and be judged by papers submitted by each pupil about May 1. For illustration, the eighth grade of the Foster School has issued a challenge to all other seventh and eighth grades in the district to a contest in penmanship. This challenge was signed by a pupil of the grade for her classmates; it has been read to the various grades and promptly accepted by all schools except one. Another contest will he between all fifth and sixth grades, while there will be a third issued by Miss Piper's school to all third and fourth grades.


It is expected that great interest, and consequently improvement in writing, will result.


Manual Training. The work in manual training continues under the charge of Mr. George Robeson along the same lines as previously mentioned. The room in the basement is totally inadequate for this work. It is not good economy to hire expensive teachers and then be unable to place them where they can work to advantage.


The new building will remedy this defect.


Graduation. On Tuesday evening, 1923, a pleasing program com- posed mainly of scenes from "The Man Without a Country" was pre- sented in the auditorium of the Town Hall. After this program, Mr. Hector Jackson, Charman of the School Board, presented diplomas to the following named pupils:


Mary Barousky, Doris Blake, Julia Botos, Arthur Croteau, George Davies, Irene Dumont, Maria Eliades, Robert Farmer, Marion Foster, Elizabeth French, Bella Friedman, Evelyn Fuller, Edith Garside, Ruth Kelley, Herbert Larrabee, Viola Marr, Harriette Moore, Harold Roberts, Bernice Roper, Carrie Scarlett, Loretta Smith, Beatrice Sonia, Arthur Strahle, Katherine Sullivan, Martha Wagner, Mary Watson. Maxine Wright, Harry Vogt.


Of these twenty-eight graduates twenty-one entered high school; three entered vocational school; three remained at home, and one is working.


112


High School. There were enrolled at Lowell High School in September, 1923 the following Tewksbury pupils:


Gertrude Allen, Isabelle Amiot, Mary Barouky, Charles Battles, Francis Battles, Philip Battles, Roberta Bisbee, Doris Blake, Helen Blake John Botos, Julia Botos, Edward Brownstein, Chester Burgess, Ruth Burgess, Eleanor Carson, Harold Carson, Dorothy Chambers, Julius Chesus, Ellen Clancy, Alberta Colby, Mary Corr, Arthur Croteau, Norman Davis, Flora Douglas, Maria Eliades, Janice Farmer, Robert Farmer, Douglas Flaherty, Ethel Fletcher, Marion Foster, Elizabeth French, Wallace French, Bella Friedman, Evelyn Fuller, John Gale, Thelma Gale, Alziera Guyer, James Hallett, Donald Hicks, Elsie Hicks, Adelaide Holt, Barbara Johnston, Dorcas Johnson, Ruth Kelley, Mar- garet Lacey, Herbert Larrabee, Edward Latour, Dorothy Lavelle, Ethel Livingston, Raymond Livingston, Josie Lovejoy, Arthur Maclaren, Agnes Marion, Beatrice Marr, Viola Marr, Allen MacDonald, John McKillop, Wesley Millet, Dorothy Mountain, Ruth Mountain, John Nash, Louis O'Connell, Harold Roberts, Grace Roper, Charles Sawit- zky, Carrie Scarlett, Edward Smith, Jessie Smith, Anna Sullivan, Katherine Sullivan, Louise Sullivan, Eunice Toothaker, Richard Tread- well, Velma Trull, Mary Watson, Wesley Willett. In addition to these pupils there are three in Billerica, two in Reading, and one in Wilmington.


Conclusion. One year ago I suffered a severe illness. I wish to take this opportunity of expressing my heart felt appreciation of the kindly sympathy which was shown me at that time. I think that no one ever received more considerate treatment from School Boards, teachers, and pupils than did I.


In conclusion I wish to call to your attention the report and tables which follow this report and form a part of it. And again I wish to express my thanks for the loyal co-operation of supervisors and teachers, and the cordial support of the School Committee.


Respectfully submitted, CHARLES L. RANDALL, Superintendent.

REPORT OF SCHOOL NURSE


January 12, 1924.


To the Superintendent and School Board of Tewksbury,


As School Nurse I submit the following report:


I began my duties as School Nurse, Sept. 1922. All the pupils in the schools were weighed, measured and examined for pediculosis four times during the school year. The underweight and defective children were examined at more frequent intervals. This year (beginning Sept., 23) all pupils were weighed, measured and exam- ined for pediculosis, skin diseases, uncleanliness, etc., every two months and weight cards sent home with the report cards.


In June a Clinic for underweight children was held in the Town Hall. Fifty-five children, accompanied by their parents, were exam- ined by expert physicians sent to us by the State. The parents and children were also instructed and advised by a nutrition worker. Twelve children were recommended for X-Ray; these pictures have been taken but the findings have not been sent to me. This delay is very unfortunate but is doubtless due to the fact that large num- bers of children have been examined through the State.


This fall I have paid especial attention to defective teeth and have obtained many corrections. Fully 75 per cent. of the pupils need the immediate attention of a dentist.


Eighteen children have been vaccinated in school.


The schools have been remarkably free from contagious diseases. January 1 to December 31, 1923:


Number of visits to schools 233


Pupils examined in schools 2054


Home visits (defective causes and absence) .. 154 Pupils conducted to dentist and hospital. 104


Simple dressings 34

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC


To the Superintendent and School Committee of Tewksbury:


The many educational possibilities of music have caused Presi- dent Eliot to say that music properly taught, is one of the most valu- able things presented in the schools. It has also caused Payson Smith to say that if rating the studies in their importance he would put English first and music second. I believe music is one of the best mediums we have to make children think, act and do for themselves.


Some of the elements of education are concentration, observa- tion, independence of thought and action, quick thinking, reasoning and co-operation.


Do these elements enter music? Try to read a piece of music at sight, you will find you need the utmost concentration. You must observe the various elements of time and tune that enter into the right rendition of the musical problem, the number of sharps and flats in the signature, the position of the key note and the time and tune signature. There are a few things a child must be taught to observe.


What about quick thinking? In arithmetic or other subjects the child is not lost who hesitates, but in music "He who hesitates is lost," for time and tune wait for no man. It must be on time or else it is wrong.


Independence of thought and action enters the subject through singing. It needs the utmost freedom of thought and action, as well as concentration. Twopart singing is started in the fourth grade. In the sixth grade three part music is introduced.


Co-operation is taught throughout the grades, but is brought into prominence in the upper grades, by the pupils learning to co-op- erate and sing together by watching and following the lead of the director. A feature in our work which I believe interests the pupils and brings all these elements into play to a certain extent is the concert arranged by class. This is the result of our daily study in singing and appreciation. We study a song, interpret it, then class= ify it. Just about this time of year we have a varied enough reper- toire to arrange a fifteen minute concert. We talk about what is necessary to make a program interesting, then the class does all the work. The fifth and sixth grades are doing this now and I am sure if you visit some of these classes you can easily see all the above elements worked out, plus the social and cultural training, which I consider valuable to every pupil. This is all made possible through the sincere co-operation I receive from the teachers.


Respectfully submitted,


ISABEL M. GREGORY,


Supervisor of Music.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF SEWING


Tyngsboro, Mass., January 14, 1924.


Mr. Charles L. Randall, Superintendent of Schools,


Tewksbury, Mass.


Dear Sir:


It is with great pleasure that I submit my report as Supervisor of Sewing in the Foster School.


The girls in the eighth grades have completed hemstitched towels, articles of underwear, aprons, holders, blouses, dresses and rompers for younger children in the family. Two girls have made serge dresses for themselves.


The girls in the seventh grade have finished holders, aprons and articles of underwear.


The girls in the sixth grade have made holders, hemmed dish towels and made aprons and bags. These articles are all made by hand.


At Christmas time the girls made handkerchiefs, luncheon sets, aprons and hemstitched towels.


I wish to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation of the hearty co-operation of the Superintendent and teachers.


Respectfully submitted,


LENA M. COBURN,


Supervisor of Sewing.


REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING


Mr. Charles L. Randall, Superintendent of Schools,


Tewksbury, Mass.


Dear Sir:


I take great pleasure in presenting to you, my second annual report of the work in drawing in the Tewksbury schools.


Drawing is an essential training for both eye and hand. It teaches one habits of observation, perception and deliberation. One's success in life depends largely on self-expression, no matter what phase of life he enters into. Art work is used as a means of apply- ing the early creative imagination.


The general outline of my work has been similar to that of last year, consisting of: color work, measuring, free cutting, nature and posters for the lower grades,-and design, printing, color harmonies and construction work among the upper grades.


I now take this opportunity to thank the Superintendent again for his valuable advice and interest, and the teachers for the interest which they have shown in carrying on my work.


Respectfully submitted,


M. GLADYS PILLSBURY,


Supervisor of Drawing.

REPORT OF DEMONSTRATION WORK IN AGRICULTURE AND HOME ECONOMICS


Carried on by Middlesex County Extension Service in the Town of


Tewksbury, during the year ending December 31, 1923


An appropriation of $150 was made at the annual meeting for dem- onstration work, under the direction of Middlesex County Bureau of Agriculture and Home Economics, now known as the Extension Ser- vice. Following is a report of the work done by this organization in Tewksbury:


Agents of the Extension Service made twenty-four farm and home visits during the year.


An Extension School was carried on for the benefit of farmers and their families, but due to severe weather the attendance was rather poor. A seed improvement demonstration was conducted, also a poultry account project which brought out the value of efficient management in getting egg production.


Five educational moving pictures were given with a total audience of 1045.


In the boys and girls department there was an enrollment of 39 divided as follows: garden 6, canning 13, home economics 20. Marion Foster and Velma Trull were awarded the two-day trip to the Mass- achusetts Agricultural College for the excellent results they obtained in club work.


These young people were a part of the great County Achievement Organization, containing nearly 3,000 boys and girls, who produced during the year 1923, $129,000 worth of products. All of these were under the leadership of Agents of the County Extension Service and two hundred volunteer local leaders.
