Interest on the Sarah Augusta Folsom fund, amounting to $19.42 ; and being unable to find any one to do the neces- sary work at the cemetery that amount remains in the hands of the treasurer.


Interest on the Isaiah Robinson fund, amounting to $224.42, has been collected and used as follows: $100 being invested in United States Liberty Bonds (registered), and the balance of $124.42 paid to C. P. Ballard, treasurer of the Gilmanton Iron Works precinct.


October 26, by order of the selectmen, all the trust funds held by the town, amounting to $9,900.00, were withdrawn from the several savings banks. These, with $100.00 from the interest of the Robinson fund were invested in United States Liberty Bonds (registered). This was done through the Federal Bank of Boston by special committee, H. J. Jones of Alton.

GILMANTON TOWN REPORT.


REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS.


To the School Board and Citizens of Gilmanton School District :


I herewith present to you my third annual report as su- perintendent of schools. I shall make no attempt in this report to cover the full ground of school activities and school interests, but shall confine myself to the considera- tion of some matters which may be of the greater im- portance and may have our larger interest.


The statistical table printed on another page covers the scholastic year ending in June last. The present arrange- ment of the school register furnished by the state makes it very difficult to give detailed school statistics up to the present time. During the year ending in June the average. membership for all schools in town was 140 and the aver- age attendance was 131, The per cent of attendance for all schools was 93. The large number of tardinesses in some of our schools was unsatisfactory .. The superin- tendent made 148 visits to schools.


The following table shows the schools which have been in session since September, the teachers, and the salaries paid :

GILMANTON TOWN REPORT.


The Guinea Ridge school was opened in the spring and the children from the Gale and Sanborn districts conveyed to this school. This arrangement resulted in a consider- able reduction in the bill for transportation. Since Sep- tember Mrs. Gertrude G. Bartlett has taught this school in an acceptable manner. Mrs. Bartlett has had several years' experience in teaching and is a state certified teacher. The severe winter weather, of course, greatly interfered with this school during the winter term.


Our total enrollment for all schools since the opening in September has been about 150. The attendance has not been good. This has been due in part to the extreme weather conditions during the winter term. I am con- vinced that our terms should be so arranged that more of the school year should come in the warm weather. Ex- freme cold weather and roads difficult to travel make at- tendance at school for small children living at a distance necessarily irregular. We have had 31 weeks of school since the opening of the spring term. This was one week more than the previous year.


In my last report I called the attention of the district to the need of grading the grounds at the Iron Works school. They remain unsightly and unattractive. I sug- gest that a special appropriation be made at the school meeting, that a beginning may be made in the improve- ment of this yard. In its present condition it is no asset.


This building at the Iron Works, designed to be heated with a heater placed in the basement, cannot be adequately warmed in zero weather with the present equipment. Lack of funds when the building was constructed necessi- tated dispensing with a basement and also proper. heating and ventilating arrangements. This should be remedied before another winter. I would suggest the need of in- stalling caustine chemical toilets at this building. The toilets now in use are unsatisfactory and would no doubt be condemned by the state board of health.


Nearly all our expenditures for repairs this past year


40


GILMANTON TOWN REPORT.


were in connection with the high school dormitory. These repairs were absolutely necessary. There is urgent need of certain repairs on practically all our buildings, and another year should not go by without their receiving at- tention. I am certain that several of our outhouses would not stand the test of state inspection. To put all the build- ings into a thoroughly sanitary and suitable condition would be too much of a burden for one year. However, a beginning should be made. Such minor repairs as are imperative should be attended to, and at least one build- ing should be put into the best possible shape.


Chapter 114 of the Laws of 1917 provides that "the school board of every school district shall hereafter cause to be inserted in the warrant for the annual meeting of said district an article relating to the adoption of the provisions of chapter 83 of the Laws of 1913, providing" for the medical inspection of schools, unless said district has already adopted the provisions of said chapter." . The warrant for the school meeting contains such an article. Should favorable action be taken, the provisions of the medical inspection act would be in force in this school district. It would then be the duty of the school board to appoint a school physician, who would, in the presence of the teacher, at least once a year make an examination of every pupil, except such as are exempted, and of every teacher, and "of the school buildings, yards, and surround- ings thereof as the health of the pupils may require." Provision is made for testing every child, at least once a year, to ascertain whether he is suffering from defective sight or hearing. The object of the act is to safeguard the health of the school children and to secure the correction of such physical defects as may be remedied. Wherever carefully and properly administered this act has proven of positive benefit.


Chapter 122 of the Laws of 1917 provides that the fiscal year of school districts beginning February 16, 1917, shall end August 31, 1918, and thereafter the fiscal year


41


GILMANTON TOWN REPORT.


and the scholastic year shall end August 31, annually. This means that the present financial year, instead of being twelve months in length, will be eighteen months, a con- dition which was, of course, not provided for when the ap- propriations were made a year ago. It will be necessary for the school meeting to make a deficiency appropriation to meet the expenses of the school district through the spring term, and in fact to August 31 next. The expenses for that period would be in the vicinity of $2,350. As we now have in the treasury a balance of about $500, a de- ficiency appropriation of about $1,850 would be needed. In addition it will be necessary to make provision for a full year of school, beginning September 1 next.


It will be noticed that there has been some increase in teachers' salaries. This has been inevitable. During the fall term we had five state certified teachers on our force, which accounts for part of the increase. We can no longer expect to hire efficient teachers at the old salaries. This is perfectly apparent and should be kept in mind when ap- propriations are made.


The work of our high school should be of increasing inter- est to us, and there should be growing appreciation of the importance of this school to our town. We were fortunate that Mr. Sturtevant consented to remain with us for an- other year as principal. Miss Gertrude Cotton resigned in the summer and Miss Marion C. Boorn of Brattleboro, Vt .. a graduate of Simmons college, was chosen a teacher of domestic arts. - The laboratory has been fitted with all necessary apparatus for teaching physics. I regret that our numbers have not increased as I had hoped. The Smith-Hughes bill passed by Congress grants aid to agri- cultural schools throughout the country which meet certain requirements as to courses, equipment, etc. It is a signifi- cant fact our course in agriculture is almost identical with the one which is required for approval by the national commission. We have made application for this aid. If our school is granted aid it will mean that our agricultural

teacher well be on duty for twelve months in the year. He will have close supervision during the summer of the projects of the boys and girls not only of the high school but of all the schools, and will be at hand at all times to render service to the community in his capacity as agri- cultural teacher and advisor. In these serious times, when it is the patriotic duty and privilege of every man, woman and child to increase, in so far as he is able, the store of provisions of a world well-nigh facing starvation, we can- not fail to appreciate the importance of work of this kind. Respectfully submitted,
