Report of School Board.
To the Citizens of North Hampton:
In submitting the usual annual report of the school work for the year closing February 15, we can say that on the whole it has been successful. Mr. Chester A. Davis has been continued in charge of the Center Grammar school. For the Center Primary and the East schools new teachers were em- ployed for the school year opening in September, and in each instance the work done and results obtained in school work have fully justified the action of the School Board in its se- lection of the right teachers from a large list of applications for the positions.
Miss Helen E. Somerby is in charge of the Center Primary, and Miss Joanna P. Simmons at the East school, where she brought complete order out of chaos in the first two days of her work there, and we now consider both of these schools models which would well repay all the parents to take the time and visit them and see for themselves what a successful teacher can do for the young children placed in their care.
In accordance with the school laws we recommend that the following amounts be raised in addition to what the law re- quires for school purposes.
High school tuition $512 00
Text-books and supplies 150 00
Official 65 00
Insurance 40 00

MUSIC.
It is with pleasure that a report of the year's work in music is here submitted; for we feel that the progress made by the children has been very gratifying. It is true that conditions wholly beyond the Supervisor's control prevailed at the Little River school, during the spring term, which precluded the possibility of reaching wholly satisfactory results; but we feel justified in saying that during the fall and winter terms, excellent progress has been made. The work of the Center Primary school has been good all the year through; and it is safe to say that at no time in the history of the Town have "monotones" been so nearly an unknown quan- tity in these two schools, as at present. Most of the pupils of the Grammar school read rapidly, at sight, quite difficult exercises in any key, and in two parts. They will be glad to demonstrate this on any Wednesday afternoon to anyone who may visit the school.
We have one or two pupils in this school who seem to think that they cannot learn music. We can but wonder why they should feel so. Can it be that their parents dis- trust their ability, and so discourage the children by remark- ing "there is no music in our family," or something to that effect? We have heard parents speak in this manner, and while it was all in good faith, we know that they were wholly mistaken; nevertheless, remarks of this kind made in the presence of a child make it next to impossible for a teacher to expel the doubt thus created. It is true that some chil- dren learn music much more readily than others. It is equal- ly true that all children who are normal, and have ordinary intelligence, can learn to sing; except in cases of very bad catarrh, or other physical disability.
This being the case, we feel that it would not be right to neglect to advise all parents to encourage their children by all means in their power to make the most of their advan- tages, and to take it for granted that they can do what others do.
A set of music copy books are being used this year by all
22
children above the second grade. These, when finished, will be available as excellent reference books on musical notation and theory; while the drill incidental to this feature of the work is very helpful.
C. L. AKELEY, Supervisor.
DRAWING.
This important and interesting subject is receiving full con- sideration, and good progress has been general throughout the year. The remarks regarding the spring term of the Little River school, in my report on music, will, however, apply here.
This branch of school training is not supposed to develop artists, designers, or architects; but it will give the child quite an insight into what has well been called, "the only uni- versal language." We try in this work to bring the child into closer touch with nature, to lead him to discover in her many things which will broaden and enrich his life, to give him in- struction in color harmony and design, to instruct him in making and reading constructive drawings. The intense im- terest shown by children in the study of art fully attests its great value as an attractive and profitable feature of school discipline.

The year ending February 15, 1912, has been very satis- factory as a whole. Although our bills have been larger, owing to the increase of the state tax, and the town's voting to drill a well, build a sidewalk, and buy a chemical engine, East Cemetery trust fund, and new furniture for schools, a balance has been left on the right side of the books, and there is no debt.
