RECOMMENDATIONS
The chief text books that have been purchased the last year consists of Elementary American Histories and New Edson-Laing Readers. This year for supplementary reading the Progressive Rhodes Readers are needed. These books together with a few new books which will be needed to replace those that are already past re- demption will furnish the bulk of books needed.
The Jacques school house has been painted and shingled. The south side of the Judah Small school
20 95
Overdrawn balance of 1914
38
house has been shingled. A new stove and two riew doors have been placed in the Borough school house. Also in the Adams a new stove and funnel has been set up. The out buildings of the Ward schoolhouse have been slightly repaired.
The principal repairs needed are as follows :
The Wheeler schoolhouse needs painting while the Borough needs plastering and papering. The Ward and Wood schoolhouses need new stoves and funnel. Most of the schoolhouses which are not already papered need the walls and ceilings white washed. This not only gives the school room a light pleasant aspect but also serves as a disinfectant as well. The stoves and funnels in every schoolhouse should be blacked. In many of the funnels a damper should be placed so that the heat of the stove can be more easily regulated.
During the summer vacation many of the school- houses are cleaned by the parents. Yet some are ne- glected. I hope that the parents will cooperate in doing this even more in the future.
Again thanking all those who have helped to make this year successful, I beg to submit this report to your attention.
Respectfully submitted, C. M. KENDRICK,
Supt. of Schools.
