Ample provision should be made for the high school in the way of recitation rooms, a good laboratory, ample hallways, and toilets, and a room which all pupils remaining through the noon hour may use as a lunch room.


Appreciating the prompt and careful consideration given to matters when brought to the attention of the Board, I am Respectfully yours,


WINTHROP P. ABBOTT,

Report of Principal.


Pittsford, Vt., Feb. 4, 1911.


To the Legal Voters of the Town of Pittsford:


Gentlemen:


As principal of your High school for the current school year I beg to submit the following report. I have found my work among you most pleasant and I can find no fault whatever with the treatment I havereceived. The ma- terial I have to work with as regards the children sent me cannot be surpassed in any community. In every case they have been right with me in whatever work we have under- taken together. Because we have been so unanimous in our labors together we have been able to accomplish much more than we could have accomplished otherwise. They have re- duced my problems of government to a minimum and so we teachers can give our entire attention to other matters.


This year we have put in two permanent courses that have never been given in the High school before, namely : Agriculture and Solid Geometry. We have arranged for and are now giving an entire course of study based upon the Ag- ricultural needs of the pupils of High school age. In years to come the nation will have need of good farmers. The schools are doing almost nothing to supply this need. Instead of supplying healthy, hard-working and thrifty farmers as citizens, most schools are supplying bookkeepers, stenogra- phers, and dry-goods clerks. Perhaps this has something to do with our present high cost of living. When we can con- vince boys of the superiority of life on the farm over almost any other kind of a life from the points of view of health, happiness and education, even money, we can then hope to have a state to be proud of. Agricultural education is the


57


only means of bringing this about. Culture is good, but we want the culture of usefulness and not that of idleness. In the pursuit then of usefulness of the agricultural kind we need a bit more of apparatus or at least a place in which to keep the apparatus we ourselves can easily provide. You can readily see that a laboratory even though small, and a chance to study chemistry at first hand would be of the greatest material benefit to our future farmers, and for those who go on to college it is almost a necessity. In everything else we are on a par with the better schools of the state.


In addition to the two subjects mentioned we have felt the need of a great deal more training in rudimentary arithmetic, in spelling and in reading. There is here a weakness in our entire system. We are trying to meet this need by putting in a hard course in common arithmetic and by having daily spelling lessons. We are even having reading lessons in all the English classes. If there is any one thing in all school work that should be emphasized it is reading. I am not ex- aggerating in the least when I say that the majority of our pupils cannot read.


One thing that is bad for the efficiency of our High school is the youth of most of the pupils entering. They should be kept back in the grades until they have done all that they can possibly do there.


If this is done the later work will not be so difficult. To discourage pupils by working them beyond their capacity is always a mistake and it is dangerous.


In consideration of the fact that we may soon have a new school building I would say that it should be large enough to give room for a commodious laboratory and for a small school library. The school can easily furnish the books for a library if only its preservation can be assured by the town. We need it because we can do so much more efficient work if we have our books at our very elbows when we need them. Working in collaboration with the Maclure library we can also make our reference lists much more complete. At present we have


58


some 300 volumes that have been gathered together by pupils and teachers and by the aid of $10 given last year by the School Board.


To vary the monotony of the scheduled work we have had several speakers at the High school during the past year and plans have been made to continue this work in the future.


Among those who have already spoken are Dr. Boardman, Rev. Father J. A. Lynch, Rev. C. H. Smith, Rev. C. N. Curtis. Mr. Rollin Smith, and Mr. John Candon, the last be- ing in the interest of our class in agriculture.


We have also made considerable of debating in our rhetor- icals and in the classes in English. Two debates have been arranged with Brandon High school and these will occur early in the spring, one at Brandon and one here at Pittsford. They will be open to the public and will probably be held in the town hall in each case.


At present we have an enrollment of 58. We have plenty of room save in the toilet rooms and halls. Worst of all there is no room for a laboratory of any description. If Pittsford wishes its schools to compare favorably with other schools in. the state in this respect a new building is an absolute neces- sity. If theseadvantages are provided there will be no ques- tion but what Pittsford High school may become an accredit- ed school next year, I have already made application to that effect. This means that our graduates will not have to take examinations for entrance into any of the principal col- leges of eastern United States.


We might say in closing that this need of a new building is felt farther than in the High school. Were it not for the con- gested condition of the lower grades I am told pupils could be kept back for a little longer in the grades and so gain much more from their early years of education. Perhaps the new building could be so arranged as to relieve this crowded con- dition.


I wish to thank my pupils for all the many good things they have seen fit to give me in the past but most of all for


59


their willing service and their excellent work. They have been an inspiration to me when things went wrong because I knew that I could always depend upon them. I feel also to make mention of the services of those who have shared in my labors and to whom much of their success is due if they have been successful.


I have found the teachers provided to be all that could be desired in every respect. Our relations have always been the most pleasant and cordial. I only hope that in the future it may be my lot to work under conditions very similar to those in Pittsford even though on the surface they seem forbidding from the material point of view.


Sincerely yours,


S. G. JOHNDROE,


Principal Pittsford High School.

Report of the Librarian for the year ending December 1, 1910.

Number of books circulated, 11,361


Average circulation each day,

Number of books added to the library by gifts,


Dr. Walker, 31 vols.


A New York friend,


33 vols.


Miss Eaton, 20 vols.


12 vols.

Purchased with money raised by,


Mother Goose entertainment,


73 vols.


Library funds, 186 vols.


Periodicals bound,


20 vols.


297


Total number of books added, 375


The most notable of the gifts is a set of 20 volumes of "Great Events by Famous Historians," given by Dr. Walker. The bindings are fac-similes of some of the most famous bindings in the world.


Begining in the summer most of the fiction purchased has been rented for two cents a day. When the book has earned its cost it is put on the free shelves. This method of raising money has proved successful.


More than 100 worn out volumes have been removed from the library this year, most of them are from the children's room. Owing to careless handling in the homes, the books become badly soiled and worn, and more money is spent to re-


61


pair or replace books than would be necessary if parents as well as children treated public property with greater care.


Some of the teachers send to the library for books for sup- plementary reading in the school-room, and one teacher has asked for books to circulate among the families near her school-room. We will gladly make all of the school-rooms outside of the village, centers of distribution if some one will agree to be responsible for the safe return of the books.


Twenty-seven magazines and two daily papers are pur- chased for the reading room table and the Magazine club, and three more are contributed.


Last winter a printed list of assessions for the year 1909 was issued, and the list of assessions for 1910 will soon be ready. In May a list of Outdoor books was printed.


Last winter the room vacated by the Town Clerk was, by the generosity of Dr. Walker, fitted with new book stacks, table, and chairs, and on February 4, it was opened to the children. It contains 1200 books for young people and no one who visits the library after school hours will doubt that it is appreciated by the children.


We are grateful to Dr. Walker for the new acetylene light which which replaces the old system of lighting by gasoline, and is another one of his many benefactions to the town of Pittsford. Some much needed work has been done on the card catalog by Miss Spafford, an experienced cataloger. This work was made possible partly through the generosity of Miss Eaton.


The year has been a prosperous one. The circulation has been larger than any previous year. The library has been open more hours than ever before, and the use of the library for reference is increasing. The one thing that has not in- creased is the amount given by the town toward its support.


The library is open to the public every Monday, Wednes- day, Friday and Saturday afternoons, from 2 till 5 o'clock, and Wednesday and Saturday evenings from 6:30 to 9 o'clock.


Respectfully submitted,


BERTHA M. SHAW, Librarian.

The total debt of the town February 1, 1910 was $18, 686.88, therefore the town debt has been increased $464.90, instead decreased $3,500, as we figured one year ago. We have no excuse to offer as the report of our school directors and road commissioner show for themselves. If, our town officers con- tinue to spend the amount spent this year, the voters have got to increase our tax rate to meet same.

Selectmen's Report


To the Citizens of Pittsford:


We have, in the discharge of the duties appertaining to our office, endeavored to be as economical as the public good would permit. Owing to the wants of our citizens our expenses are growing larger every year. We have expended more money than usual on our bridges and cul- verts the past season. The bridge near the station has been replaced by a new concrete one at a cost of $328 19. More of our culverts should be replaced with concrete as it becomes necessary to repair them. We purchased a new steel grader which has proven to be money well expended, also a strip of land of P. H. Carrigan, to straighten out a jog in the line fences at the Town Farm.


Dr. John I. Pinckney, who was appointed Health Officer after Dr. Swift left town, together with the State Board of Health, found it necessary to post the town for the better protection of all and a better control of infectious diseases. At present we are in a fairly healthy condition,


We have drawn orders on the Treasurer as follows:
