Circulation of books in 1920 by months as follows: Jan- uary, 390; February, 392; March, 306; April, 393; May, 413; June, 338; July, 271; August, 26; September, 227; October, 323; November, 285; December, 240. Total taken out during the year, 3,884. Average per week, 74.9.
Owing to the money being used for other necessary pur- poses, there were no available funds with which to buy new books, and it was thought best to raise money for that purpose by subscription. Through the generosity of the people of West Swanzey the sum of ($70.00) was raised which has been wholly expended for new books.
The trustees recommend an appropriation of $125.00.

REMARKS
The School Board has made every effort to keep all the schools running this year with the best teachers obtainable. In nearly all, the results have been satisfactory. All supplies and fuel have been very high and the pay of the teachers has been very much increased, as it has in all other districts. Un- der the law the state should pay all the expense in excess of the $5.00 tax. Until the present legislature acts, we do not know how much of this excess the district will receive. For this reason the school meeting is not called at this time, but the warrant will be posted as soon as possible, calling the meeting not later than April 20th, as provided by law.
Under Article 8. (Officers' Salaries, we recommend raising $300.00 to allow paying $50 towards the superintendent's sal- ary, as the other districts in this union are doing and to in- crease the Treasurer's salary. Her duties have been so much increased that she should have more pay.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
To the Board of Education and Citizens of Swanzey, N. H .:
I have the honor to submit my second annual report.
There were 1,075 pupils registered in Union No. 25 the past year, of which Swanzey enrolled 258, and 34 attending high school. The state average for attendance is 92% and our schools had 92.34 which is a good showing, and a gain of 2% over last year. Two schools only, No. 5 and No. 9, fell below 90%. All schools completed 36 weeks except in the Cutler building.
For 1919-1920, Swanzey paid the state $1,188.91 state tax; $604 per capita tax; $25 superintendent; total $1,817.91. Un- der state aid, received $1,033 for qualified teachers and high school rebate, and $693.63 equalization fund; total $1,726.63.
This means that Swanzey paid to the state for equalization, $91.28 which pays also for your supervision. We hope to re-
. ceive this year $2,978.14 if the new school law receives the support of the legislature.
The teaching force for the present year is as follows: Cutler building :
Cora I. Mckellips, grades 7-8.
Marjorie L. Oakman, grades 5-6. Dorothy Emery, grades 3-4.
87
Gertrude J. Landin, grades 1-2.
Mrs. Alice D. Matthews, No. 1, Grammar.
Grace L. Ward, No. 1, Primary.
Mary E. Coll, East Swanzey, Grammar.
Helena Coll, East Swanzey, Primary.
Myrtle Whitcomb, No. 5.
Marion Ellis, No. 7.
Florence Christian, No. 9.
No. 7 was supplied by Keene Normal until Christmas, Miss Roberts and Miss Haley serving the legal period of six weeks each. In spite of the increased salaries, five out of eleven teachers are changed. The school work, although hampered by this large percentage, has made marked progress. In East Swanzey, Miss Helena Coll has utilized the splendid equipment of the Community building for classes in cooking and sewing.
The work of bringing the school equipment up to minimum requirements continued through the summer. No. 5 has been completely remodelled and with a school of 35, has justified the expense, which exceeded the appropriation. If the school- room had not been enlarged, it could not have accommodated so large a school.
At the Cutler building the fence was moved back 55 feet to increase the size of the play ground, and needed changes in the sanitaries made. The seats were rearranged in some rooms for better lighting and this building is now up to re- quirements. No. 7 was put in satisfactory condition, also. Some changes, which are needed at No. 9, can be made at small expense.
A petition has been received asking for electric lights at No. 1. The same need is felt at East Swanzey and the Cutler building. This is not a state requirement, but a matter for
-

local towns. There is no doubt it would increase the efficiency of the teachers and be of great use to pupils during the winter season. It would also make possible the school houses as com- munity centres. I do not recommend immediate action, but suggest the next step in improving your school property should be the installing of electric lights wherever possible.
Owing to our nearness to Keene Normal, special teachers of music and drawing can be secured reasonably, and I recom- mend it for the coming year.
' In conclusion, I thank the Board of Education, teachers and citizens, for helpful support and loyal co-operation.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE O. SMITH,
