REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF DRAWING
MR. W. N. CRAGIN, Superintendent of Schools, Wilmington, Mass .:
In response to your request for a report on drawing in the schools of Wilmington I submit the following:
Last year, without attempting to produce any attractive results, we tried to establish good habits in commencing work, good methods in carrying it out and finishing, and began to give the pupils some understanding of the principles underlying representation and design. In the High School a part of the time was given to mechanical drawing, and the pupils were taught the use of compasses and draw- ing boards, some problems in geometrical drawing, and a few sim- ple working drawings. The teachers and many of the pupils worked faithfully and hard, and it is gratifying this year to see that their efforts have resulted in a marked improvement in certain depart- ments.
The same subjects which seem to be most important among the many included under the term " Drawing" will receive especial attention this year, and in addition to these there will be some rather rigid training in measurement and construction, which seem to fall to the care of the Supervisor of Drawing, although they are matters of general information and not art. This training is meant to promote an increased power to do exact and accurate work.
It is my hope that the designs resulting from a series of lessons to be given later on that subject may be applied by the pupils to some suitable material, such as wood, textile, leather or metal.
Considering the limited amount of time that I can spend on the Wilmington schools ( which is about five hours per week for the whole town) the simplicity of the work in the lower grades, and the
46
difficulty it attains in the higher ones, I have thought it best to con- centrate my time and attention where it is most needed, and there- fore have had to leave the work of the first three grades largely to the teachers.
If any success has attended my work in the Wilmington schools it is largely due to the faithful, interested and painstaking efforts of the regular grade teachers.
Very respectfully,
MARGARET E. HILL.

AND OTHER TOWN OFFICERS
REPORT OF SELECTMEN
TO THE VOTERS AND TAXPAYERS OF WILMINGTON :-
Your Selectmen, in presenting this their annual report, wish to assure you of the unanimity of opinion and spirit of co-operation which has prevailed not only among themselves but among all the officers of the Town during the past year. This good feeling has been reflected in the kindness and courtesy and the absence of serious complaint which have marked the attitude of the public toward them.
It is a source of satisfaction that in the expenditure of the public appropriations no account has been overdrawn except where necessity compelled, and that there are in several accounts substan- tial balances. It is recommended that these balances be re-appro- priated in every case, and especially in case of the miscellaneous account, for it is probable that the Town is no longer to have the corporation tax, the most important resource of this account. The Selectmen have taken great pains to make this report perfectly intelligible. All superfluous material has been eliminated, some matter has been added which has not customarily been published, but which inquiries and public interest seem to call for. These pages give the voters and taxpayers of Wilmington a very fair reflex of the year's business, while by no means conveying an ade- quate idea of the increasing details of hard work exacted by the needs of a progressive community.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE W. BUCK, ARTHUR T. BOND, JOHN W. HATHAWAY,
Selectmen of Wilmington.
