In Prussia, where the use of the gymnasium is better understood and appreciated than in any other country, and also in Sweden, great atten- tion has been given to physical education as a part of the system of public instruction. In both of these countries a regular course of instruction in " Calisthenics," or "Free Gymnastics," has been introduced into the public schools.
As the result of their inquiries, your committee would recommend that an experiment in this branch of education be tried in the following man- ner, under the direction of the School Committee: That a competent teacher may be employed to teach " Calisthenics" in the High school for three months as a school study; and your committee earnestly recom- mend that the school session shall not be lengthened nor the recess shortened to give time to this study. This experiment can be fairly tried in the above manner at a cost of one hundred and fifty dollars, which sum it will be necessary to appropriate if the recommendation of your committee is adopted.
The town can then hear the report of the School Committee upon the subject and judge for themselves as to the propriety of introducing these exercises into the other schools, a measure your committee now think will be found desirable.

There is a need in our grammar schools to which your committee would call your attention, and which applies more particularly to the Pierce school. During the hot weather, and in stormy days, there is no oppor- tunity for the girls of these schools to get any fresh air or exercise without a degree of exposure which endangers their health. For this reason their recess becomes valueless, and to protect them from the weather your committee would recommend the construction of a rough shed, a simple roof supported by columns. This cannot be done at the Pierce school at present, until the cobble stones and gravel shall be farther removed from the southerly side of the school-house and your committee would request the proper authorities to clear a space suffi- ciently large for this purpose as soon as it is consistent with proper economy in the use of the material.
Your committee are aware that these suggestions may seem to many people who have not considered the subject, to be foolish and a waste of the public money, but while so much money is cheerfully spent to enable the children of the town to pursue their studies, it must surely be wise to enable them to profit by these advantages to the full extent, if a small expenditure will accomplish so desirable an object.
Mental culture without corresponding physical development is useless. Mental progress to any advantageous purpose without any such develop- ment is impossible. Therefore the time taken from the books for this purpose will not lessen the amount of information gained from them.
MOSES B. WILLIAMS, Chairman. WM. I. BOWDITCH. EDWARD S. PHILBRICK.
Voted, To accept the foregoing report.
Voted, To raise and appropriate the sum of one hundred and fifty dollars for the purpose of teaching "Calisthenics" in the High school as recommended in the foregoing report.
The Selectmen, to whom was referred the Tenth Article in the warrant, relating to the purchase of a gravel pit on Fair- mount, submitted the following report, viz. :-
REPORT.
The Selectmen, to whom was referred the Tenth Article in the warrant, calling the annual town meeting held March 26, 1860, in relation to pur- chasing a gravel pit adjoining the one already owned by the town on Fairmount, have attended to that duty, and would report as follows :
Adjoining the gravel pit belonging to the town on Fairmount is a lot of land belonging to John W. Warren, containing about one and one-fourth acres, which has the appearance of containing a large quantity of excel- lent gravel for making roads; this can now be had for four cents the square foot, and we would recommend to the town to purchase the same, and, for that purpose, would present the following votes : -
89
Adjourned Annual Meeting, April 11, 1860.
Voted, That the Selectmen be and hereby are authorized to purchase the lot of gravel land adjoining that owned by the town on Fairmount, if it can be obtained for four cents the square foot.
Voted, That the sum of twenty-five hundred dollars be raised and appropriated for that purpose.
All which is respectfully submitted.
JAMES BARTLETT, Chairman. THOMAS PARSONS. MARSHAL STEARNS.
BROOKLINE, April 11, 1860.
Voted, To accept and adopt the foregoing report.
The committee to whom was referred so much of the report of the Selectmen, made at a former meeting, as related to the purchasing of so much of Washington street lying south of the Charles River branch railroad that had been discontinued, and was claimed by S. A. Walker, made report thereon as follows, viz. :-
REPORT.
The committee appointed by the town to confer with Mr. S. A. Walker and the Boston and Worcester Railroad Company in regard to the passage- way leading from the highway to the railroad station, respectfully submit the following report :-
That the fee of this entire piece of land is held by Mr. Walker, subject to a right of way, formerly sold by him to the railroad corporation, over a strip twenty-eight feet wide; the remainder of this land, being the part which was fenced in on the day of the last town meeting, is also subject to certain somewhat indistinct easements held by the Worcester railroad corporation over the greater part of it.
The President of the Boston and Worcester Railroad Corporation stated to your committee that although in his opinion the corporation had already purchased more land and had done more to render the approach to their station easy and comfortable than the citizens had reason to claim, still if the committee should decide to purchase this land and should think it just and proper to assess a portion of the cost upon the corporation, such assessment would be cheerfully paid. For this offer, .which was made at their first meeting, your committee wish to express their thanks, as it simplified their duties and materially lessened their labor. The only remaining question was in regard to purchasing the land, whether the advantage to be gained by the town and corporation was equal to the cost.
Your committee are of the opinion that the town needs this land for proper and economical drainage of the neighborhood; that without its purchase the present approach to the station cannot be improved. If the land over which the railroad corporation do not possess the right of way should be permanently fenced in, great inconveniences would be caused to all persons who approach the station by this passage-way.

In consideration of these facts, your committee decided to offer Mr. Walker the sum of six hundred dollars, on condition that he should deed to the town of Brookline, for a highway, the fee of all the land before described in this report, including the strip of land twenty-eight feet wide over which the Boston and Worcester Railroad Corporation now hold the right of way. This offer was, after some hesitation, accepted.
Your committee, having first ascertained that the abutters upon this land were ready to comply with the regulations of the town in construct- ing proper sidewalks with edgestones, agreed, upon the part of the town, with the Boston and Worcester Railroad Corporation that the whole of the land thus purchased should be laid out and properly constructed as a highway, with crossing stones for foot passengers. In consideration of the increased facility of approach thus given to the station, and the expense on the part of the town for the construction and drainage of the said road, your committee have assessed the Boston and Worcester Rail- road Corporation in the sum of three hundred dollars.
Your committee now request that an appropriation of five hundred dollars be now made and placed in the hands of the Selectmen, together with the amount to be received from the Boston and Worcester R. R. Co., with instructions to complete the purchase of the land and to construct the road as agreed upon by your committee.
