itself justified in reengaging the supervisors of art and music. These subjects are of such a character that the efficiency of the instruction given in them is pretty sure to deteriorate rapidly unless the teachers have the benefit of supervision by persons with good native capacity and special training. It is not neces- sary to add that both teachers and pupils were delighted when the supervisors began again to appear in the classrooms at regular scheduled intervals.
Respectfully submitted,
FREDERIC A. WHEELER.

Report of School Nurse
The work of the school nurse during 1934 has necessitated 326 visits and 227 consultations.
I have assisted Dr. Damcn, school physician, in vaccinating 51 children. All children in the Wilbraham schools, with the exception of two, are vaccinated, and these two presented cer- tificates of exemption. The record is a good one and shows that parents are certainly cooperating in carrying out the law in this respect.
During the year 70 children were given the toxin-antitoxin and 16 the toxoid treatment for diphtheria immunization. Those receiving the toxoid treatment were enrolled in the pre- primary class at The Pines school, as this treatment is recom- mended for children under five in preference to the toxin- antitoxin treatment. The Schick test was given to 88 children.
Physical examinations were given to 416 children, and 324 were found with physical defects. In many instances the taking of cod-liver oil and the drinking of more milk were recommended. In 30 instances the children were decidedly nutritional cases. There were 285 children with teeth defects, but many are receiving treatment at the dental clinic, and, in some instances, from the family dentist. Notices were sent to 79 of tonsil defects. Tonsil operations were undergone by 14 children. Notices of posture defects were sent to 16 children and of feet defects to 22 children These children, together with others whose degree of defect was so slight as not to justify a formal notice, were given bulletins describing exercises which might be taken to prevent further development of defects. Only 8 children were found with definite eye defects, and of these 4 were taken to the oculist by the nurse.
98
During January 410 children were weighed. Of this num- ber 259 were given an A rating and 31 a D rating. As compared with the previous weighing, one child had not gained and 7 had lost weight. In September 389 children were weighed. A rating of A was given to 198 and of D to 35. It was found that 8 had not gained and that 21 had lost weight since the previous weighing.
The heads of 632 (some duplicates) were inspected, and 8 children were excluded because of lousiness, while 3 others were excluded because of other symptoms of communicable disease.
Only one child from Wilbraham went to Camp Frederic Edwards during the summer.
In October the State Board of Health, assisted by the Hampden County Tuberculosis Association and the school. nurse, gave 273 children, or 67 per cent of the total enrolment, the tuberculin test. A positive reaction to the test was given by 41 children. However, 47 children were X-rayed, but only 4 of these were then given a physical examination. Of the 4 examined, one was classified as having the childhood type of tuberculosis and 3 were classified as suspicious childhood type cases. From a list of 36 old, follow-up cases, some being adults, an X-ray was taken of 25. An examination was made of 10. A discharge was given 21 and the remaining 15 kept on the list.
The nurse's afternoon time has, for the most part, been taken up with dental clinic work.
I wish to thank everybody who has cooperated with me in my work.

Report of School Physician
To the Superintendent of Schools, School Committee, and Parents of Wilbraham:
I have Schick tested 88, vaccinated 51, given immuniza- tion treatment against diphtheria to over 7C, and examined 416 in the public schools, have made several calls at school buildings on call from the teachers. We have not had any serious epidemic of contagious disease during the year.
I wish to thank all for their cooperation during the year.
