During this war the folk songs and dances have taken on a more definite significance than heretofore. The study of nationality, through the characteristic music - songs, dances and musical instru- ments, has developed keen interest in all of the grades.


Girls Glee Clubs were organized in all of the schools last year and the Sargent School now boasts of a Boys Glee Club, beginning late fall.


Activities were much the same this year as last, Christmas pro- grams being given creditably in all of the schools and excellent singing at the Common on Memorial Day by the combined schools of the town.


In addition, Grades 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the Frost School presented the "Nutcracker Suite" and Grades 5, 6, 7, and 8 gave a "Variety Show" for their Spring Concert at the Academy Gymnasium. An appreciative audience filled the hall for this splendid program.


In conclusion, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to all those who have helped toward making this year happy and successful.


Respectfully submitted,


LILLEY MORAN LAWLER,


Music Supervisor.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF HANDWRITING


January 22, 1944


Mr. Chester V. Sweatt, Superintendent Westford Public Schools


Westford, Mass.


My Dear Mr. Sweatt:


I am pleased to submit the following report on the Handwriting program in the Westford schools for the school year 1942-43.


In the initial Handwriting tests administered in September, 1940, 20.7% of your elementary school pupils received a grade of "A" (Excellent) ; 6.9% received a grade of "B" (Good); and 72.2% were graded less than "B." In the June tests administered in 1943, 70.1% were graded "A" (Excellent) ; 14.3% were graded "B" (Good) ; and 15.5% were graded less than "B."


Certificates in Handwriting were awarded to 47 or 73% of the eighth grade pupils and 8 or 72% of the high school pupils.


During the school year we graded approximately 4750 formal and 14,250 informal samples of Handwriting for the elementary school children, and 1000 formal and 2000 informal Handwriting samples for the high school pupils.


We furnished the following supplies during the year :- monthly outlines for the teachers, pupil folder outlines, room motivation cer- tificates, monthly and term envelopes, term testing paper, individual handwriting certificates for the eighth and high school pupils who qualified, diagnostic charts, seals, etc.


In conclusion, I should like to express my appreciation to you, your teachers, and your pupils for the fine cooperation we have received at all times.


Sincerely yours,


W. L. RINEHART.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE J. V. FLETCHER LIBRARY


January 1, 1944.


The Trustees of the J. V. Fletcher Library respectfully submit their annual report for 1943; including the report of the Librarian and the list of books added in 1943.


Last winter the Selectmen requested a complete appraisal of the contents of the Library building for insurance purposes. Accordingly several evenings were spent in listing and valuing the books, furni- ture, statues, oil paintings, the contents of the Historical Room and the tools in the basement. Placing the value on some of the articles was somewhat of a problem, but an endeavor was made to arrive at a fair estimate.


To carry on the repairs and the necessary work of the Library and its branches the Trustees ask the following appropriation, viz:


1. The sum of twenty-four rundred ($2,400.00) dollars.


2. The receipts from the dog licenses in 1943.


Respectfully submitted,


WILLIAM C. ROUDENBUSH, Chairman. WILLIAM R. TAYLOR ALICE M. HOWARD, Secretary.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN


January 1, 1944.


To the Trustees of the J. V. Fletcher Library :


The librarian herewith submits her twenty-sixth annual report in the eighty-fifth year of the Westford library.


While the total circulation has decreased slightly, the number of adult non-fiction has increased. As it takes longer to read a book of biography or travel than a book of fiction not so many can be read. The most used group was that of history in which are included the books about the World War which have been very popular, with a circulation of 557. This is followed by travel with 505 books; biography third with 495 and useful arts (cooking, airplanes, agriculture, etc.) fourth with 418. The number of children's books circulated has in- creased, showing that they are less busy than adults. The magazine circulation also has increased, probably as they are easier to read by busy people.


This year the long and ardous task of taking an inventory of all the books in the library has been performed, after which the books were counted giving a total of 17,738. This includes 378 books of the Social Library, nucleus of our present library, and 100 old books which are in cases in the former trustees' room. Also in the attic there are 124 books published before 1845 and 1,407 other books which includes the old Agricultural Library, books of genealogy and others which are little used. The 172 volumes of the Vital Records are in the basement. The several hundred volumes of public documents and Smithsonian reports, previously included in the count, have not yet been inven- toried and counted.


Several collections of interest to many have been shown in the Frost museum case this year. Miss Marion F. Winnek loaned three groups of articles collected during her travels: Indian crafts and paintings by Indian young people; pottery, embroidery and lace from Italy; and materials of Jugoslavian handwork. In April, Mrs. Carl Chaplin loaned the articles brought to her sons from Liberia by their uncle. One month a group of foreign dolls belonging to the librarian were on display. The most recent exhibition was of souvenirs col- lected from different points in his travels by J. Willard Fletcher, radioman on one of the ships of the Pacific fleet.


129


In the spring garden books about flowers and vegetables were arranged on the table in the conversation room for the convenience of the victory gardeners.


For the convenience of the people of Nabnassett a deposit station was opened at the home of Mrs. Edgar Peterson in July. This is open on Tuesday afternoon and evening and it is hoped that it will be in- creasingly useful. Through the courtesy of Mrs. John Spinner of Graniteville books from the library have been made more accessible to a group of her neighbors. From time to time the librarian has taken books to families who could not readily come to the library. The deposit station at the Post-Office in Forge Village still supplies books for both children and adults. Books are also taken to the schools for the children of Graniteville and Forge Village, where the work of the teachers who take charge of them is much appreciated.


Fifteen children of the Frost school were awarded honor certifi- cates at the graduation exercises in June, which means reading and reporting on twenty books from the State Reading list. Seventy or eighty small certificates were given during the year for reporting on five books from this list.


Several illustrated book reviews written by pupils of Westford Academy were on exhibition at the library in November.


Mr. Edward M. Abbot made a valuable addition to the Westford historical material by the gift of a portrait of Commodore Joel Abbot, born in Westford, January 18, 1793. He was granted a sword by Act of Congress for meritorious action in the War of 1812, served in vari- ous positions of trust, and during the critical period of our relations in China performed delicate diplomatic duties, dying in Hong Kong in 1853. A United States destroyer, named for him in 1918, has been re- commissioned for active service in this war and was then turned over to Great Britain.


An honor roll containing the names of the men and women serving in this war, sponsored by the Edward M. Abbot Hose Company, was erected on the lawn between the library and the church where it was dedicated on November 7.


During ten months of the past year the Red Cross has used Library Hall for the making of bandages on three afternoons and one evening a week. Also a class in home nursing sponsored by the Red Cross, was held for eleven weeks beginning Tuesday evening May 11.


130


Mrs. Carl Wymian was the instructor. In appreciation the Red Cross gave the library two copies of the home nursing text book.


One of the magazines listed for last year-Yankee-was not re- ceived as it was discontinued at the close of 1942 for the duration. Otherwise there is no change. All except current numbers may be borrowed for one week and the list for the coming year is as follows:
