REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN


Members of the School Committee:


The following is my report as School Physician for the year end- ing December 31, 1947.


The usual physical examinations were made on all of the children attending the public schools of Westford. A separate physical exam- ination was made to recheck all the cases in which major physical defects were found, in order that the parents of the children could be notified as to what procedure would be needed for them to see that the children would get the needed medical or surgical care when major defects were found.


A special examination was made on the pupils of the Academy who were to play football and basketball, in order that they could carry Liability Insurance and to find out if they were in the right physical condition to enter in these sports.


A large number of pupils were treated at the Abbot Worsted Company Hospital for minor surgical and medical conditions. These cases came to me as emergency cases referred to me by the Prin- cipals of the different schools.


Cooperation by the Board of Health Nurse, teachers, and parents of the children was splendid as it has been in the past.


Respectfully submitted, DR. DWIGHT W. COWLES

REPORT OF PENMANSHIP SUPERVISOR


December 17, 1947


Dr. Beaumont A. Herman Superintendent of Schools Westford Academy Westford, Massachusetts


My dear Dr. Herman:


I am pleased to submit the following report of the operation of the Handwriting program in the Westford schools for the school year of 1946-47.


In the initial tests in Handwriting administered in September, 1940, 20% of your elementary school pupils received a grade of "A" (Excellent); 8% received a grade of "B"; and 72% were graded less than "B". In the June tests administered in 1947, 78.3% of your pu- pils were graded "A" (Excellent); 16.6% scored "B" (Good); and 5.1% were graded less than "B". Handwriting certificates were awarded to 80% of your eighth grade pupils.


During the last school year, we graded approximately 5000 formal and 15,000 informal samples of handwriting for the elementary school children.


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


.In general, I am pleased with the results obtained and wish to take this opportunity to thank you and your teachers for the fine cooperation I have received.


Sincerely yours,


W. L. RINEHART, Director.

NO-SCHOOL SIGNAL


The No-School signal will be two blows of the fire alarm whistle repeated three times.


The above signal will be given at 7:10 A. M. unless icing condi- tions begin about that time, in which case the No-School signal may be blown as late as 7:45 A. M.


The No-School announcement will be broadcast over stations WEEI, WBZ, WLLH and WLAW whenever possible.


It is the policy of the School Department to keep schools in sessions on all days during which it is safe for buses to be operated. The widely varying conditions in the several parts of Westford make it difficult to reach decisions equally fair to all. On days when the weather condition is questionable parents are urged to exercise their own judgment as to the wisdom of sending their children to school.

For the Year Ending December 31, 1947


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


January 1, 1948


The trustees of the J. V. Fletcher Library respectfully submit their annual report for 1947 including the report of the librarian and the list of books added in 1947.


Continuing our program of repairs in the library our added ap- propriation made it possible to redecorate the walls of the front rooms and to refinish the floors. This year we hope to do the same in the stack room and sometime in the future to refinish the rooms up- stairs which have never been done since the library was built.


During the years since the J. V. Fletcher Library was built there have been only four janitors: Ai Bicknell 1896-1913, Charles H. Pickering 1914-1923, Frederick A. Hanscom 1920-32 and Frank A. Wright who after serving for fifteen years resigned in April. During the summer months the building was under the care of Miss Day and Mr. Roudenbush who supervised the work on the lawn. On De- cember first Carroll Rollins accepted the janitorship for the winter.


Due to the need of continued repairs and the increase in salaries the trustees ask for the following appropriation to carry on the work of the library and its branches, viz .:


1. The sum of thirty-six hundred ($3,600.00) dollars.


2. The receipts from the dog licenses in 1947.

January 1, 1948


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


The librarian submits her thirtieth report since she began her work here February, 1918. The library has occupied the building presented by J. V. Fletcher nearly fifty-two years of its eighty-nine years of existence as a public library. It was originally kept in private homes as was the Social Library before it was given to the town. It was moved to a room in the town hall in 1871. During the time since libraries were first started, rules and regulations have changed greatly as a better understanding of their purpose and value has been realized so that no longer would any librarian agree to the following admonition for good librarians as quoted from an old manual by the Bulletin of the American Library Association: "So far as your authority will permit of it, exercise great discrimination as to which persons shall be admitted to the use of the library. For the treasure house of literature is no more to be thrown open to the ravages of the unreasoning mob than is a fair garden to be laid unprotected at the mercy of a swarm of beasts." Now no librarian will be satisfied until the library can be of some use to everyone in the community.


We are glad to report that it has been possible to open a · deposit station in Graniteville at the home of Mrs. Francis C. Wood on River Street which will make it more convenient for the people of that village to obtain books. The people of Forge Village and Nabnasset already have the opportunity to get books at their post offices.


The children of the Frost school who go in buses still get their books during the noon hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. For the high school pupils this year the library opens at 10.30 on Tuesdays and they are allowed to come up during their free periods.


Books that are needed for specialized purposes are still borrowed through the Division of Public Libraries which has been very helpful in supplying books on education for teachers, those in foreign lan- guages and on various other subjects. Two books on plumbing bor- rowed for one reader were of so much help that he purchased them for himself. A few books have been borrowed from and loaned to other libraries.


Books of music have been popular in the children's room lately. To increase their number the librarian salvaged the songs from old copies of Grade Teacher and Instructor to paste in scrapbooks. There is also a collection of books on music for adults, including the maga- zine Etude. Perhaps in the future it may be possible to provide records.


134


The exhibits in the Frost museum case have included articles used in colonial times, Christmas cards by Grandma Moses, stamps and first day covers and Christmas creche.


Mrs. Helen Budge, our assistant, and Mr. Arthur L. Hope have kept the library well supplied with lovely flowers during the summer. During the winter the library was made more cheerful by the ever- greens supplied by Miss Marion F. Winnek.


When the schools were studying colonial life and customs the librarian was asked to exhibit and talk on various articles contained in the library collection and among her personal possessions. They were shown to the eighth grade at Forge Village on January 17 and to the fifth grade at Graniteville on February 10, being on exhibit in the Frost case between those dates. On January 22 she showed her Greek dolls to the sixth grade in Graniteville which had been studying that country.


On Friday night July 18 the library was entered after several attempts by unknown persons. Only a few cents were obtained as that is all that is ever left there but damage was done to a door lock and the window through which they finally entered.


In January a box was placed on the counter so that those who. wished could contribute to the infantile paralysis fund.


The librarian attended the two-day meeting of the Massachusetts Library Association at Pittsfield in May, one day of the New England Library Association meeting at Swampscott in October, the Merri- mack Valley local group at North Andover in June and several ses- sions of the Library Institute held at Simmons College in July. She also had a chance to visit libraries at Amherst, Athol, Fitchburg and Foxboro.


A few new magazines have been added and two have changed their names-Asia to United Nations World and Better Food to Practical Home Economics. All except current numbers may be bor- rowed for one week and the list for the coming year is as follows:
