To the School Committee of Barnstable: In accordance with the rules of the School Committee, I have the honor to submit my first annual report of the pub- lie schools for the year ending December 31, 1905,the same being the fifteenth in the series of Superintendents' reports. HIGH SCHOOLS. BARNSTABLE HIGH SCHOOL. After nearly ten years of urging on the part of those interested in this school, suitable quarters.have at last been provided by the town, and the excellent results already apparent make one regret that such action was so long delayed. Renewed interest and pride in the school are apparent on every hand and I am glad to testify from per- sonal knowledge of the excellent spirit pervading the school. Principal Boody reports that the heating, ventilating and sanitary plants appear to be working well and that the building proves to be a very convenient one in its arrange- ments. The town should be congratulated also for the good judgment shown in purchasing a generous tract of land for the school grounds. THE COMTMERCIAL COURSE. The commercial course, under its indefatigable instructor, is proving more popular than ever. The course as intro- 261 duced was planned as a four years' course, as a commercial course of a high school, not simply as a commercial course in a high school. titre have sought to make the course as thorough and as practical as that of a good business college, but less narrow, by including in it a thorough preparatory course in English, and a study of natural conditions and phenomena which affect industrial development, as well as a study of some of the simpler relations of social and civic life to business progress. It has been charged that the usual curriculum of the average high school is "ingeniously planned to eliminate therefrom any activities which train the pupil to perform effectively the duties of actual life." There is far more truth in such a statement than is pleasant to have to ac- knowledge. In the reaction now in progress from such ultra-academic courses there is danger, .as always, of going to the other extreme, and school officials are confronted with the difficult and ungrateful task of trying to find the golden mean. It would be most unfortunate for the reforms which all well-wishers of the schools hope to see take place, if the newer and more practical courses were made "snap courses," weak in content, weak in effort, required .and necessarily unsatisfactory in results—courses into which the weaklings and the ineffective would crowd by natural affin- ity. This has been the unfortunate but_unnecessary history of many an "English" and `.`Scientific" course. That the high school should make radical changes in the direction of training for practical life there can be no ques- tion, but equally it should never give up its correlative duty—that of at least opening the way toward life's broader and higher fields, in which bread and butter, business and dollars, must ever be subordinate factors. In our own Commercial Course it would be .a most unfortunate thing if boys who would naturally make good mechanics or skilled workers in other trades should be 262 drawn into the overcrowded ranks of clerks and bookkeepers. It would be unfortunate if the course should encourage the foolish and immensely harmful notion that there is anything more inherently respectable in mercantile life than in that of the farmer or the artisan. To sum up, we can feel sure that the introduction of our Commercial Course is a distinct step forward, but also we need to remember Superintendent Kingman's warning that it will not prove a panacea for all the deficiencies. from which our high school is suffering. SCIENCE TEACHING. In our science teaching we have suffered 'from causes common to many of our small high schools, besides having troubles of our own. The principals of such schools are usually men whose training and tastes lead them to prefer to teach the languages and mathematics. Hence the science work is put into the hands of women assistants, who do conscientious work, but who as a rule have no natural taste for scientific subjects. The work inevitably suffers. In our own schools lack of proper facilities, both in room and apparatus, has long crippled our science teaching. Vis- iting the Barnstable High School in its old quarters last spring, an agent of the State Board of Education expressed his surprise that "two so important subjects for teaching young people how to intelligently use and understand the world in which they must live, as physics and chemistry," were apparently so inadequately treated. We now have suitable quarters, but no apparatus. Suit- able apparatus and chemical supplies would cost about four hundred dollars. When these are secured it is hoped that some arrangement of the programmes of the two schools may be made so that 263 some of the more essential apparatus may be loaned from time to time to the Cotuit school. COTUIT HIGH SCHOOL. Both the Grammar and the High schools at Cotuit are badly overcrowded and some relief should be provided. The present arrangement for providing for the High school recitation room and for the Primary school room gives poor quarters to each, and should be considered but a makeshift. An ell of one or two rooms could be added to the present building. If of but one room it should be large enough to serve both as a laboratory and a recitation room. If the proposed additions are made, modern sanitary arrangements should be installed at the same time. The gain in con- venience, health and decency would far outweigh any additional cost. The employment of an assistant at this school has for the first time rendered it possible to arrange a course of study approximating that of a high school. The renewed interest , in the school and the many new classes formed are a natural result. It is to be hoped that the school will maintain its reputation for sending pupils of ability to higher institu- tions. The critical "first year" of the average high school is marked not infrequently by a slaughter of the innocents that leaves but a relatively small proportion to enter the second year's work. No doubt this is in part due to a lack of appreciation of the value of higher training, and deficient ambition for their children, on the part of some parents; but the school itself cannot escape blame. The usual first year's course comes near justifying its description by one boy as a "girls' course" and by a youth of evident social status as a "pink tea course." If concrete geometry were substituted for algebra and a vigorous course in some science for French, and the grin- 264 cipal should take one subject throughout the year with the entering class, it is safe to say that more boys at least would survive. The high schools of Barnstable are to be congratulated on the large proportion of pupils who remain throughout the course. Renewed interest in athletics has been shown in both schools, especially in that at Hyannis, where generous grounds give ample opportunities. It is hoped that the enthusiasm and good judgment shown will be continued. OTHER SCHOOLS. Extensive repairs and alterations at several buildings and the many extras always incident to the' equipment of new buildings caused an expenditure for. Repairs somewhat above the average the latter being of late years about $1,100 annually. The appropriation for the year, $700, was below the average. During the coming year the school at Marstons Mills should have additional windows put in and should be painted throughout; the Santuit school should be painted; the porches of the Osterville school should be rebuilt and ad- ditional windows put in the grammar school room. The interior of the Barnstable school needs a coat of paint.' The needs of the Cotuit school are elsewhere mentioned: Minor repairs will be sufficient, probably, for most of the other buildings. The usual lines of work have been conducted at the Training School. There has been but little absence or tar- diness, and but two changes have occurred in the teaching force. The boys of the ninth grade have been building an eighteen-foot catboat as a part of their industrial work, the girls assisting in cutting and sewing the sail. The school 265 was the recipient of a banner and a gold medal for its exhibition at the Lewis and Clark Exposition. The pupils of one of the village schools have shown activity in.two commendable lines of effort by erecting basket-ball goals in the schoolyard and providing their room with an ex- cellent book-case and library through their own earnings. I would suggest that the town co-operate with the village of West Barnstable in laying out the contiguous grounds of the school and the library on some unified plan. The char- acter and position of the grounds offer an excellent oppor- tunity for effective landscape gardening. THE UNGRADED SCHOOLS. Like the poor, the problem of the isolated, ungraded or rather many-graded school we have with us always. Such schools suffer from certain drawbacks that are practically irremediable. Both teachers and pupils suffer from the lack of opportunity to compare their work with that of others, and from the incentive to vigorous activity which is offered by large numbers doing the same work. The spirit of emulation, or any satisfactory substitute for it, is in a large degree absent from such schools. In two of our schools, each of over thirty pupils, a con- siderable number of the children come from homes in which little or no English is spoken. When it is considered that one of these schools has five and the other seven grades it will be seen that their teachers have an exceedingly difficult task and should receive the active co-operation of the par- ents. Considering the drawbacks above mentioned and that these schools will be continued probably for some time, it is but fair that they should be Dept in the best of repair, fur- nished with modern seats and desks and receive a generous share of books, apparatus and supplies. It is rather too B-18 much to. expect,to hold Kahle teachers,long in these unattrac- tive positions...' TRANSPORTATION'. School transportation has offered its usual quota of diffi- culties and annoyances the past year. While no statistics are at hand, it seems probable that Barnstable pays for transportation a larger proportion of the total appropriated for schools than any other town in the state; yet the barge owners are not overpaid. It is expected that there will be a slight increase in the total cost the ensuing year. GENERAL PROGRESS OF TIIE SCHOOLS. Owing to the short time the present incumbent has Held his office it would be unfitting to enter into any detailed description or criticism of the work of the schools in the =several subjects taught. What investigations I have made confirm the judgment of my predecessor 'in that regard. I have elsewhere mentioned the changes in the high schools and their effects. It is noticeable that in just those schools whose teachers are willing to accept modern ideas we find the most practical and efficient teaching of the "Three R's," the fundamental studies of reading, spelling, arithmetic, grammar, history and geography. Systematic nature study, which may be made so vitalizing, thought-compelling and practically useful, suffers severely from our frequent change of teachers. The good work of normal school graduates in this subject is worthy of mention. Some teachers are planning the improvement of their school grounds .the coming spring. It would be well if .every school yard in the town could show at least some 2s7 flowers and shrubbery to relieve the .repulsive sand-wastes that many of them now display. A' Teachers' Club has been formed. It is intended to meet at least five or six times a year, in the hope that there- by the work of the schools may be unified and improved. The enrolment for the fall term is the largest of recent years and shows an increase of more than fifty over last year.- It has caused some additional expense for books and supplies. INCREASED FIXED CHARGES. It will be.noticed that the total for School Purposes shows an increase over that of last year. This is due in. part•-to expenditures for rent of a private room for high school pur- poses, for various expenses in moving the .boobs, furniture, etc., from the old to the new high school building at Hyannis, and many incidental expenses connected there- with. The employment of separate..supervisors of drawing and music. on full time and of an assistant at Cotuit also added slightly to the cost. The new schedule of .wages made a slight addition and was probably influential in .inducing one or,two teachers to remain with us longer than otherwise. ,The increase of over fifty in the enrolment called for ,new sittings, but these in large part.were provided for: by old seats and desks from the.High School and the Training School. Some of. the above are of the nature of fixed charges. Other matters of increased expenditure which must be pro- vided for.in future appropriations will be those due. to yearly supplies for the commercial and scientific courses, as ,well as for books and supplies for the additional courses now possible at Cotuit. ass A GROWING PROBLEM. The difficulty of obtaining, to say nothing of retaining, competent teachers is certainly not appreciated by the average citizen. There m no one evil so fatal to good schools as constant change of teacheq:s. The loss our children suffer yearly from this cause is incalculable.and can never be made up. Long continued suffering from this great evil should stimulate as to greater efforts to lessen it rather than induce a spirit of hopeless acquiescence. While the question is primarily a wage problem, it also has a side often over- looked, that of community attitude. A living annual wage is the fundamental necessity. But something more than this is needed. Since our distance from any large business or social center deters many teachers from coming here we must offer compensating advantages in the way of active support and backing of teachers' efforts by parents and the community; this has a far greater influence in securing and retaining a valuable class of teachers than is ordinarily sup- posed. The latter matter rests with each individual in the community, the former with the town's voters. In this connection it is not perhaps generally realized that our school year is considerably shorter than the average throughout the state, thirty-seven weeks. Our own school year is thirty-four weeks. Most towns of equal population have a school year of thirty-eight weeks or more. It fol- lows that while our new wage schedule offers about the same per month as the average rural town our short school year brings the annual wage down to a very low figure and is.the leading drawback in obtaining teachers. Barnstable County is mentioned in the last report of the State Board of Educa- tion as one of the counties paying very low wages. It is an unenviable distinction, one which our town will doubtless do its share to wipe out. By lengthening the school year, the annual income of the teachers will be increased and the 269 town will receive increased service at the same time. This lengthening has been repeatedly urged by my predecessor and is yearly becoming more imperative. It would be of great benefit to the.children who are demoralized by the ex- cessively long summer vacation, and would result in more and better work. I commend the matter to your considera- tion. THE WHOLE BOY AT SCHOOL. It is beoinnino• to be recognized that if we are to have the whole man, the whole boy must be trained. Our schools have trained their pupils to listen and to express themselves more or less imperfectly by writing and speaking. The amount of motor training worthy of the name has been small indeed. Drawing and a little natural science so called have been almost the only studies in which motor training has formed a prominent feature. To observe carefully, to rea- son accurately, to act efficiently—these are not the products of passive listening and the perfunctory study of the text book. The startling inefficiency of the average public school graduate when confronted with the concrete problems of life points to some serious deficiency'in his training. This in- efficiency is now making itself felt in the broader phases of our industrial life. A large port of the best work in our highly skilled mechanical, chemical, textile and art indus- tries is now done by workmen of German, English, Aus- trian or French birth. We are excelled by European nations, especially by Ger- many, in trade relations with even our immediate neighbors, the South American states. Possibly the fact that the com- mercial and technical schools,of Berlin alone contain 25000 students, taught with German thoroughness, may have some bearing in this connection. Ob,servant parents are fast joining public-spirited business 27.0 men and thoughtful educators in demanding that so far as possible the whole Loy be trained. We know from experience that the boy who has learned to take delight in using his hands in producing objects of utility and beauty, who has a hobby perhaps for electricity, chemistry or cabinet-making is not likely to waste much of his time on the street, with its demoralizing and destructive influences. The girl who has learned, from practical train- ing, to take pride in the skillful performance of domestic duties is less likely to think of life as consisting solely of goingto school and playing the piano. But industrial training of the right kind does more than this. It cultivates a kind of concrete honesty in estimating values. If a pupil gets 85 per cent. in a book subject, we mark him "good;" if 70 per cent., "passable." Would 85 per cent. and 70 per cent. of accuracy in fitting, a door or cutting a garment be ranked as "good" and"passable"work? True industrial training will create a more vivid realization of the dignity of labor, of its fundamental and eternal worth as the basis of all higher development. It will make the young man able and willing to earn a living, not merely to make a living, which is sometimes a very different thing. Says William James, the leading psychologist of Amer- ica, and one of the most practical and vital of educational thinkers, "The most collossal improvement which recent years have seen in secondary education lies in the introduc- tion- of the manual training schools; 'not*because they will give us a people more handy and practical for domestic life and better skilled in the trades, but because they will give us citizens with an entirely different intellectual fibre. Lab- oratory and shop work engender a habit of observation, a knowledge of the difference, between accuracy and vague- ness, and an insight into nature's complexity and into the inadequacy of all abstract verbal accounts of real phenom- ena, which, once wrought into the mind, remain there as 271 lifelong possessions. They confer precision; because, if you are doing a thing, you must do it definitely right qr definitely wrong. They give honesty; for, when you ex- press yourself by making things, and not by ztsing zvoz•cl.s, it becomes impossible to dissimulate your vagueness or ig- norance by ambiguity. They beget a habit of self-reliance.. Manual training methods, fortunately, are being slowly but surely introduced into all our large cities." In Massachusetts, school legislation follows rather than leads public opinion. Yet for years`such I legislation has made it mandatory for every town in the Commonwealth containing twenty thousand inhabitants or more to maintain the teaching of manual training as part of both its ele- mentary and its high school system. It is only a question of time when such training will be found in every school, large or small. Fortunate the com- munity and especially tortunate the children where this is not too long delayed! We owe to the children not the best we are doing but the best we can do in fitting them to become useful citizens and, efficient factors in the world's service. I repeat the recommendation of my predecessor that a simple form of manual training be introduced into the school at West Barnstable, using the unoccupied room for that purpose. THE ONE THING NEEDFUL. Courses of study, fine buildings, wise essays on educa- tion, speeches of noted leaders at great conventions, sug- gestions of superintelidents, even the willing and helpful community—none of these can give us the good school. The consecrated teacher, laboring cheerily in the schoolroom day after day, devoted mind and heart and soul to leading outward and upward the souls in her care, this is the one 272 thing needful. As "the gift without the giver is bare," so bare indeed is the school without such a teacher, though it be housed in marble and brick and have its walls adorned with the masterpieces of painting and sculpture. Respectfully submitted, G. H. GALGFR, Superintendent of Schools. 273 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING. To Mr. George H. do lger, Superintendent of Schools: Very near the close of the last spring term, there was at the High School an exhibition of some of the work which was done in drawing during the year in the schools of the town. Every room was represented,two rooms by all but three pupils, and many of the rooms by a large percen- tage of the pupils. The drawings were made by the chil- dren, thus there was shown the honest expressions of their independent efforts to do what was required of them. It is a teacher's duty to present work which the pupils can do, teach how to do it, and then see that the pupils accomplish this work. The drawings were direct and simple, good in the whole effect, strong in the representation of an idea or object and in most cases satisfactory in the handling of the medium. For the mass of pupils these are the elementary visible results of the subject. They are worked out prob- lems in proportion, color and placing, and show that the pupils, besides training their minds to think, their eyes to observe and their hands to labor, are becoming acquainted with good forms, harmonious coloring and pleasing arrange- ments. Many of the drawings which were made by the High School pupils are the beginning of the more advanced work now possible for them to attain, a mere start in the right direction. The exhibition did little for the teachers. It failed to en- courage them to further progress. With three exceptions, the teachers of the town who should have shown the most interest showed the least. Only two of the teachers who were directly responsible for any of the drawings saw the exhibition. This makes'it appear that the larger number of the teachers are indifferent to the subject. If the children 274 of their rooms happen to produce good work they do not object, but if bad work results.from the feeble attempts of the children to draw they are not willing to exert them- selves to make it better. When teachers thoroughly believe in a subject they will manifest this belief by striving in every possible way to make it succeed. When a strong belief in drawing exists and there is a determination to make the subject display this belief, the work will advance. Then and not until then can the drawing lessons do for the schools what they should do. All of the .best educators of the country are seeking a better recognition for drawing and saying that the subject should be' considered one of the important subjects of the school course. From one of. these educators, President Eliot of Harvard, we have these words : "After reading, spelling, writing and ciphering with small numbers and in simple operations', 'drawing should be the most important common school subject'. All children should learn how lines, straight and curved, and lights and shades form pictures and may be'made to express symmetry and beauty. All chil- dren should acquire by use of the pencil and brush power of observation and exactness in copying and should learn through their own work what the elements of beauty are. It is monstrous that the common school should give much time to compound numbers, bank discount and stenography and little time to drawing:" 'Our state board of education requires all the cities and towns of the state to have drawing taught in their schools. This means that the members of the board know that all children can master the subject to the same extent that they can master arithmetic and reading and that this subject helps with the other school subjects to obtain the full development of the child. To-clay drawing needs the support of the parents and the teachers. Such excuses as "I can not draw," "I never could draw and I never can," "I would' like to 275 draw but I can't," "I will never make an artist," should not be accepted. They are the betrayers of laziness and lack of perseverance. We do not allow similar excuses about other subjects. Is unsatisfactory reading pardoned, because a child can not and does not care to become an orator? Is a child permitted to but half"try to'write because'he will not. make writing his profession? Do all children who learn to figure become mathematicians? Not for a minute would any- one think of answering these questions in the affirmative. Yet parents and teachers accept careless, thoughtless draw- ings and treat this subject, which can make every mind, eye and hand active, as if it existed for a few: That which to a great degree develops attention, observation and patience, is considered of little worth.' To the background is sent'a subject which more than any other helps children'to. see beauty, that enricher of life, the encourager of the fit, worthy and enjoyable. No study, except one from which all can and do gain knowledge; has a place in the elementary schools. And if such a study is in the course it should be considered important and taught in a way that implies recognition of its worth. I have known of only three teachers spending more than the required time on the drawing lessons,. but again and again the time has been taken from the draw- ing lessons for other studies. What-would result if half of the•amount of time assigned to reading, writing or arith- metic was lost? Without a regret this amount of time has been taken from the drawing. This is not all which shows that the subject does not re- ceive its share of attention. There is the lesson which the Supervisor gives. I seem to enter some rooms through a closed door. The only signs that a drawing lesson is ex- pected are the expressions to this effect on the children's faces. Books have to be put away, material distributed, sometimes collected from another room, or made ready. When order and 'attention are secured the lesson begins. 276 During the lesson the regular teacher sits calmly at the desk, displaying no interest in what the children are doing. I have seen teachers at this time average the month's atten- dance, study a lesson, coyrect papers, read, put a spelling or arithmetic lesson on the board, clean out a closet, and,' appear at pupils' desks with books or papers and ask ques- tions about something-in the books or on the papers. These teachers have drawing lessons to give. But there are rooms from which good results can always be expected and obtained. It is such a pleasure to enter these rooms and work with pupils and teachers that a sigh of regret is breathed when the period closes and it is time to move on. These are orderly rooms. The pupils are always ready with material and attention, eager to give their best efforts and keep to their work until the close of the lesson. The teacher is wide awake, ready to see that no child destroys the well directed activity and growth of the other children. This teacher knows what each child is doing, and if at any time the Supervisor says to a pupil, "You have not tried," there is the response from the teacher, "I will see that John makes up this work." Such teachers are not machines, satisfied when the routine work of the day has been done. They realize that their impor- tant duty is to teach the children they influence to live a worthy, happy life, to enjoy labor and deserved rest. They know that a one-sided nature is not to be developed. They are working to train their pupils to habits of order, industry and promptness. They recognize that the physical, intel- lectual, moral and aesthetic qualities must not be wanting. Hence, for the elementary schools I would ask a greater sense of responsibility from the teachers, and from the parents more interest in what the children are learning. The majority of the High School pupils are taking their work seriously and are getting from it profit and enjoyment. A number are showing great interest in what they are doing. 277 This is not enough, for every High School pupil should take every study seriously and display a willing, active interest in all that he undertakes. The class of 1905 of the Barnstable High School has given to the school eight casts—The Nike of Samothrake, a head of Dante from the tomb at Revenna, a head of the laughing 'boy by Donatello, a hand by Michael Angelo, a lion by Barye, and three panels, two fruits and a leaf. The orig- inals in marble and bronze create a feeling for the beauty of sculpture that the casts can not. give. But these good re- productions of masterpieces can give a knowledge of the refined in sculpture and lead pupils to appreciate the ex- pression of beautiful forms in this art. I think this is the largest gift any class has made to the school, and yet other classes have raised more money for their senior receptions than this class raised. The giving of strictly useful objects or of useful beautiful objects seems an appropriate way for a class to show its gratitude to the town. The High School still needs many objects for use and decoration. FRANCES SWETT. ,2 78 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC.' To JW. G. I1.' Galger, Superintendent of Schools: I. have the honor of presenting for your approval, my first annual report as Supervisor of Music in the public schools of Barnstable. The real purpose of teaching music in the public schools is to lay the foundation for musical development; from the public schools are to come our future composers,. perform- ers, teachers, choir singers and partakers in all musical interests. Therefore it is the duty of the supervisor and regular teacher to get all the boys and girls to singing, and make them love it. But to get them to singing is.not all, it is only the beginning; from an educational standpoint. a thorough knowledge of the fundamental principles of time and time must accompany the song. Music, like all other studies in the curriculum, must have a method, carried out systematically, if we wish to obtain satisfactory results. The method now in use may be summed up in a few words. The bed rock, the foundation of the whole system is independence; and this indepen- dence begins with the primary children the day that they receive their first instructions in music, and should con- tinue through all the grades as their one watchword. The regular teacher should do absolutely nothing that is unnec- essary to aid a child.' The four cornerstones on which the 'system rests are as follows—no books or charts are to be used during the first three years, for the printed songs are soon memorized, no effort is made by the child to read and independence is de- stroyed. However the discarding of books and charts does not mean that the primary children never learn to sing songs, on the contrary a large portion of their singing les- 7'9 son is given up to song drill; but the method employed is by rote: The educational advantages of rote songs are many. I will mention a few of the most important ones. They es- tablish in the child's mind his first notions concerning melody and rythm, they awaken his'emotional nature,they interest the school and unify the spirit of the class. These songs are not confined to the school room but are carried to the homes, and in a modest yet effective way-help-to create a.musical atmosphere in every.home. The second point of the system is that the'material used in conducting a lesson shall be supplied by the regular teacher (the teacher having been instructed by the Super- visor). The third point is the teaching of the two ele- ments in music (time and 'tune) by the natural order of imitation, dictation and representation. The last and very important point is the use of the individual sight singing; series. If in any part of the lesson the child's indepen- dence is shown it surely is when he stands and sings from a slip of paper an exercise that he has never seen before. We will not get intelligent, artistic work from a class until each child can read music independently. One of the strong features of the system is the way in which the work is planned to fit each grade, giving each ,child enough drill to keep him busy and interested. If the singin,o; lesson is conducted in a clear, methodical way, the results will be-good, and the children will advance in their knowledge of music as they are promoted from one class to another. It is the ambition of the Supervisor that the pupils on leaving the grammar school shall have a thorough knowledge of the fundamental principles of music, so that when they enter upon their High School course they will be ready to sing four-part music understandingly. When these hopes are realized the music lesson in the High School will not be a period of mechanical drill, but will prove to be an hour of 280 genuine pleasure, of learning to appreciate the artistic and aesthetic side of music. Then,music as the ideal, the beau- tiful, will awaken and strengthen the noblest impulses and spread its lasting influence over our boys and girls. In closing, I will say that progress has been made in all the schools; but in music, as in other branches, teachers vary in their ability, consequently I can not report the work to be advancing uniformly throughout .the town. I wish to express through you to the teachers my apprecia- tion for their loyal support and frequent expressions of encouragement. Respectfully submitted, HELEN C. BOUR.ASSA, Supervisor of Music. ti . 281 REPORT OF THE COMMERCIAL INSTRUCTOR. To Mr. G. I- Galger, Superintendent of Schools: It is with great pleasure that I report to you the excellent condition of the Commercial Department in the Barnstable High School. The students show unlimited effort, ambition and enthusiasm. This spirit on their part is one of the strongest elements which insure a successful business course. From the freshman through the senior class the pupils seem very well prepared to take up the work as outlined in the curriculum. The first year scholars have capably completed a thorough general knowledge of Physical Geography and are now ready to study Commercial Geography for the remainder of the year. I heartily recommend that one period a week in this class be devoted to current events. The usual lack of prac- tical knowledge of the works and events of the day is great- ly to be deplored in nearly all High school boys and girls. It seems fitting that such knowledge be stimulated and en- couraged in the beginning of their commercial course, as it will, almost without doubt, be continued by the student of his own accord after it is dropped from his regular course of study at the end of the first year. The commercial work in the second year quickly appeals to the student as being very practical and essential. The subject of Commercial Arithmetic is thoroughly, covered in the fall term, this being followed the second and third terms by Business Practice, which includes penmanship, spelling, business correspondence and forms, banking, and a brief study of Commercial Law. If the opinion of the students has any value, I think the fact that the two upper classes feel the need and are very anxious to take this second year of commercial work, ought to indicate that just such work B--19 282 is needed. I consider it one of the most important years of the commercial course. When the student has reached his third year, he is a lit- tle more matured and is well fitted to begin the study of ste- nography and practice of typewriting. My class in stenog- raphy will complete the principles by the first of March and can devote the rest of the year to dictation work and prac- tice for speed. They can now take about fifty words a Min- ute of new material and nearly every student can take nine- ty words per minute of'fainiliar material. My only criticism of the typewriting classes is that they are over-enthusiastic and work too fast. Other studies are neglected for typewriting and the typewriting itself suffers a little for lack of a slower and more careful pursuance. The typewriting pupils have all done good work this year and are already familiar with business letters and forms and all general typewritten matter. I shall devote the rest of their year's work to accuracy, introducing quite a little manifolding with carbon paper. I am thoroughly convinced that the ease and accuracy with which the seniors are taking up bookkeeping is due to the good foundation which the first three years of High School work has given them, and also to the fact that they are old- er and more capable of using the reasoning powers which are so essential in bookkeeping. This class, especially, would I commend for their patient, persistent efforts. Ste- , nography and typewriting are continued with advanced work in the fourth year, and Commercial Law completes the course. Too much emphasis cannot be laid on the need of a thor- ough training of the mind in the High School studies other than commercial, but which vastly aid the business student. The utilitarian use to the commercial student of sciences, mathematics, languages, especially English, is, or ought to be, self-evident. Aside from the immediate use which can a 283 be made of such subjects, the splendid training which they give the mind most efficiently prepare it for the commercial work, all four years of which require an abundance of brain work and reasoning. It is the student with the best and widest trained mind, who makes the quickest and greatest success in the commercial world. The greatest demand is not for the boy or girl with one, two, or even three years of wholly, or almost wholly, com- mercial education, but for the High School graduate who has had four years' training in liberal arts and sciences as well as commercial work. With the course as now arranged, a graduate from the commercial,course is as capable of fill- ing a position'of stenographer or bookkeeper as any busi- ness college student, and much better .fitted to do so than the grammar school graduate who has spent one or two years in a business school. I want to congratulate the town on having such a thor- oughly equipped commercial department in its High School. My sincere thanks are due to the school committee, superin- tendent, principal, fellow-teachers, and, not by any means least, to the students of the B. H. S. for their kind co-oper- ation and assistance in the formation of the commercial course, which, I feel sure, is and always will be a success, and a lasting benefit to its students. Very respectfully yours, EDITH A. KELTON, 009nmercial Instructor. 284 STATISTICS. 1.

To'lhe School Co?ngnittee of Barnstable In accordance with the rules of the School Committee, I have the honor to submit my second annual report on the public schools, for the year endin<c,December 31, 1906, the same being the sixteenth in the series ,of Superintendents' reports. SCHOOL BUILDINGS. During the year somewhat extensive repairs were made to several.buildings. Those at Santuit. and Osterville were painted, and at the latter place new windows were added and the porches reconstructed: At Barnstable the brick foundation walls were largely rebuilt, the wooden pillars supporting the first floor replaced by iron, and, through the generosity of a lady resident of the village, the basement floor was concreted and a suitable recreation.place thus.pro- vided for the children in stormy weather. New windows were added to the Marstons Mills building and minor re- pairs made at the Plains and at Centerville. At the latter village teachers, pupils and parents cooperated in the con- struction of tennis grounds, basket ball goals and other means of recreation.` The addition of a flower bed or two would make the -rounds around this building almost an ideal school yard. At Cotuit the school grounds were graded. Instead of the addition recommended in the last school report, the 89 town generously voted to erect a new school building for the High school, hence little has been done to the present building. Drainage trenches were du(Y and minor repairs made at West Barnstable, and the sanitary conditions at the Plains building improved. Repairs were made to the sanitary and heating plants at the Training school, and the bill fbr damages caused by the acetylene explosion, about two hun- dred dollars, paid. New curtains were also purchased. At the .Barnstable High school ventilating clothes-racks and compartments for rubbers, etc., were constructed in the hall and the building equipped with storm windows.- During the ensuing year the interior of the school build- ings at Barnstable, Marstons Mills and Centerville should be painted, and the grounds at West Barnstable graded and laid out with shrubbery and flowers. It is interestin, to note that the .Barnstable school report of just twenty years ago strongly urges the improvement of school grounds. At the rate of progress made since that time it seems safe to say that by the end of the present century we shall' have several school yards of presentable appearance. TRANSPORTATION. As anticipated,the cost of transportation exceeded that of list year and ran slightly above the appropriation. A some- what larger appropriation will be needed for the ensuino, year. This item of school expenditures forms a heavy burden•financially, with. no direct return, and seems des- tined to increase rather than decrease. Transportation offers also serious drawbacks other than financial, and best appreciated by those who suffer from them. The following extracts from the current report of the State Board may be of interest: "The expense of conveying children to school is 90 becoming a large due par e item in school support. This is tly to the consolidation of schools, caused by the centralization of population ; partly to the unwillingness of parents to allow their'children to walk to school; partly to an increased disposition of parents to get as much as possible out of the town. * * * * School committees find them- selves between the inexorable state law on the one side and the obstinate unreasonableness of.parents on the other. * * * The welfare of the schools is dependent on public sympathy as well as upon public support, and the school committee need thb :largest measure of public confidence and coopera- tion. There are as many distinct problems as there are children to be provided for, and they can only be solved by the good judgment and reasonableness of both committees and par- ents." The report then quotes a recent verdict of the Superior Court, sitting in Franklin county, on the following ease "The pupils in an outlying district were trans- ported to the centre. The district from which the pupils came was a sparsely settled one, requiring a large amount of travel for a team to go to the homes of all the pupils. The committee decided that pupils residing on certain cross-roads should walk to the main road to meet the team, and should walk home from the. same point at night, except on stormy days and when the walking was bad. All were willing to meet these requirements except one man, who refused to send his daughter, who wa,s twelve years of age, one-third of a mile to meet the team. A truant officer was sent for the daughter. The father still refused to send her, and the case was brought before the district court. The man was found guilty and fined $10. He ap- pealed to the superior court where the case was tried before a jury. He was again found guilty. Chief Justice Aiken was the presiding judge." 91 A noted decision by Chief Justice Shaw of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts. regarding the powers of school committees in the distribution and classification of schools, was in effect as follows : "In the absence of special legislation on this sub- ject. the law has vested the power in the committee to regulate the system of distribution and classifica- tion, and when this power is reasonably exercised, without being abused .or perverted by colorable pretences, the decision of the committee must be deemed conclusive." (5 Cush., 207, 208, 209.) The school board of the town of Acushnet recently closed a school and ignored a vote of the town meeting ordering it reopened. The case was carried to court and the decision of the supreme court was that the school board had the sole power to reopen or keep closed a. given school within its jurisdiction. Except as may be necessary to carry out the changes in the mixed schools elsewhere proposed, it would seem inad- visable to further extend transportation of scholars at the present time. SCARCITY OF TEACHERS. Although the schedule of wages adopted two ye:irs ago offered some advance for women teachers, it was so small as to have comparatively little effect in enabling us to secure or retain competent teachers. It has become largely a matter of "Hobson's choice" in securing teachers now. The matter is far more serious than this bald statement would make it appear. With the majority of our elemen- tary schools consisting of rooms of several grades each, and subject to other drawbacks inseparable from country schools, we need above all trained and experienced teachers if we are to do our simple duty to the children. We cannot get 92 them at the meager salary we offer, or retain them without a more appreciative and co-operative spirit. The annual " salary " we offer our grammar school prin- cipals is simply absurd. Appropriate action in this matter is handicapped by INCREASED EXPENSES in nearly every line of school expenditure. Janitor and transportation service is costing more than ever before, the price of labor and stock in all repairs is high, and recently there has been a decided rise in the price of general school supplies. It seems fairly certain that we must "face the music" in this matter, and judging from the past, the people of Barnstable will do so successfully. Based on the amount appropriated to the support of public schools for each thousand dollars of valuation, Barn- stable, out of 353 towns, ranks 242d, that is, 111 towns appropriate less, and. 241.towns appropriate more, per thousand dollars of valuation. MEDICAL INSPECTION OF SCHOOLS.- Sight and hearing tests made in the Barnstable schools, under the provisions of the State Medical Inspection Bill, indicate that about twenty-five per cent. of the pupils have visual defects and a• smaller proportion are defective in hearing. In order that the additional. provisions of the bill be carried out, it is necessary that a sum of money for that purpose be voted by the town. I recommend that such a suns be made, for the first year at least, a very moderate one. A careful enforcement of the provisions of this bill will undoubtedly result in a large amount of individual and public good. i 93 THE SCHOOLS. Except for the usual large number' of resignations and new appointments, few radical changes have taken place in the schools. The fall enrolment again showed an increase over that of the preceding year, and the seating capacity of several of the primary schools was severely taxed. The primary school at Nest Barnstable was filled to its limit with children of three different nationalities, severally speaking as many different languages. An impossible problem was thus presented to the teacher, and it at once became evident that justice to the children and their.parents demanded a more workable arrangement. The Board wisely decided that there should be a rearrangement of grades, giving a primary school, an intermediate school, and a grammar school of three grades each, and uniting the seventh. grade of the Plains school with the grammar school. Thus the three schools were given a reasonable number of pupils each and a fair opportunity to do average work. At the present time in the three DINED SCHOOLS Santuit, Marstons Mills and the Plains, there are no grades above the sixth, and as the training received by the upper grades in these schools has been almost always pitifully inadequate, it would seem advisable that hereafter pupils in these schools fitted for the seventh grade should attend the nearest grammar school. The time has long since gone by when any teacher, though she were a marvel of ability, can teach adequately an eight or nine grade school, no matter how small the number of pupils. By thus restricting the number of grades to not more than six, the usefulness of these mixed schools can be increased and their abolition rendered less_ probable. A very large enrolment characterized the 94 PRIMARY SCHOOLS in most of the villages, and the work has been correspond- ingly difficult. Much has been accomplished however through the ability and devotion of the teachers. The work in most subjects has been at least fair and that in Language excellent. With the growth of the "kindergarten spirit" in these schools it is little wonder they have Become so attractive to visitors, and we can no longer speak of primary children at least as "creeping unwillingly to school." GRAMMAR SCHOOLS. Uur grammar schools are a curiosity in variety of grade arrangements. We have grammar schools of five grades, of four grades, of three grades, of two grades, and of one grade. The amount and quality of work done however, varies less than might be supposed under such conditions. As a whole, the work in Language is good and bears evidence of careful supervision in past years. Arithmetic still staggers under an inherited burden of useless subjects and antiquated processes, and mental arithmetic is slighted. History is taught successfully in exact proportion to the breadth of culture. human sympathy and knowledge of boy nature on the part of the instructor. Our ,younger teachers often fail in teaching this subject and remain in blissful ignorance of their failure. For a community which claims, at least, to be self- governing, civil government is very inadequately taught in our schools. Properly taught, few subjects appeal more directly to bright pupils, and none is of more practical benefit in preparing for useful and honorable citizenshil). We should give more time and effort to this subject. Geography teaching shows a vast improvement over that of a generation ago. We have changed from the "dot on 95 the map" side of the subject to the human side, to the advantage of all concerned. After a transition period, we have changed from the vertical to the medial slant system of penmanship, the latter giving promise of a fair degree of speed as well as of legibility. The work in nature study has been of a most fragmentary and unsatisfactory kind, and practically nothing• has been done in the town schools looking to the training of the hand except in so far as that is involved in drawing. THE TRAINING SCHOOL. This school, under a corps of devoted and unusually able teachers, continues to do work which attracts the interest and receives the commendation of thoughtful and practical educators all over the country. It is natural perhaps, though unfortunate, that in the minds of some, the minor defects and the non-essential details of the special line of work which the school follows, should obscure the deeper good which is gradually being brought about. That the special work of the school is in line with a great and irresistible movement toward a truer and broader conception of education, no one can doubt who knows the work of the school and who comprehends, even in part, the sweep of a movement which is soon to make .the greatest changes .ever known, not merely in the educational world, but in the economic and social life of the people. YESTERDAY AND TODAY. It would seem about time to relegate the claim of superiority for the old district school to the dust heap of discarded untruths. Successful Inen came from these schools, but they were often such in spite of and not because of the character and limitations of their school 96 training. Commonly in such schools the teacher gave his chief attention to the brighter pupils, the average pupils received much less, while the dull were stimulated by the birch rod and encouraged by .the dunce's cap. A larger proportion of pupils could spell pleuro-pneumonia than in the schools bf today, but so also a larger proportion mis-spelled words in common use;, more could find the surface of a truncated pyramid but fewer could discount a bill and add a column of figures with facility. There never was a time when the public schools offered to .the. average pupil opportunities so great as those now presented, and never did so large a proportion of pupils do fair work in the "Three R's. " If the graduate of our public schools of today is lacking in initiative, persistency, sense of duty and moral fibre, it is not because the school has been more recreant in its duty than have the church, the home and society itself. HIGH SCHOOLS. The general spirit in the High schools appears to be good and the industry of a majority of the pupils is commendable. At Hyannis the Commercial course continues to be popular, though there has been no relaxation in its demands for abundant and thorough work. A Commercial course which justifies its existence in a high school prepares its members primarily for efficient citizenship and makes all its specific business instruction aid that purpose. Such a course cannot be constructed, like a house, in a given time. It must be a growth, stimulated ant directed by a capable head. Let us hope that we may be able to retain a competent instructor for a period sufficient to secure such a growth. Such a course marks the most significant breaking away from the old academic ideals that has happened in our schools since their organization. It is, however, but 97 a prophecy of a still greater change throughout our school system, when not merely the eye and the ear, but the hand and the will shall be trained, from the kindergarten to the university, to the end that the individual shall become, not a mere social ornament, but a willing and efficient worker in the service of his fellowmen. Under- the instruction of Principal Boody, the class in Physics have proved enthusiastic and faithful workers. When this work has been lengthened from two terms to three and that in Chemistry from one term to two, we shall be nearer the program of the modern school. Meanwhile.the work in Language and Mathematics, under competent instructors, has been industriously pursued. Hard work seems to be the acknowledued rio•ht thine in the Cotuit school and teachers and pupils have shown earnest purpose and an excellent spirit. Some attempt at laboratory work in Physics and Chemistry has been made, and in the new building, doubtless, effective work will be done in that line. It will still remain true, however, that though living in the same town, certain pupils must be content with opportunities inferior to those offered their fellow-townsmen. This is but one illustration of the many drawbacks offered by our extended territory. By referring to the table of statistics at the close of this article, we may find one item which may justly be considered a cause for congratulation.- Allowing increase of population, for the difference in the percentage of increase in high school membership in the town of Barnstable for the past ten years has been Snore than double the percentage of in- crease throughout the state. No one fact regarding our schools is more encouraging than this. It shows that a large number of parents recognize that a common school education is a far too meager equipment with which to meet even the industrial demands of modern life, to say nothing 98 of its higher phases. To such a recognition and to the thoughtful and persistent efforts of my predecessor and to the efficient labors of the high school faculty, this remark- able increase has been due. Our high school now faces a great opportunity and an iu�perative duty. It must prove that this belief of the parents and their confidence in the power of the school to meet their demands is well founded. It must continue to act radically toward modernizing and rendering more practical and vital its curriculum, without sacrificing scholarship and-the higher cultural aims, lacking which, even education may become but "as sounding brass, or a tinkling symbol." Says a noted writer, "Our high schools must have more generous and exacting commercial courses ; more courses in applied ,physics and chemistry; more shop-work; courses in surveying, landscape gardening, forestry, intensive agriculture, and applied art." Not all, but some of these (Yood things the high schools of Barn- stable will in time offer. MUSIC AND DRAWING. New books have been furnished, at considerable expense, to a majority of the schools, and renewed interest and better work has resulted. Miss Swett, whose artistic ability and thorough work placed the drawing work of our schools on a solid basis, resigned in June, and Miss Grace Clee Smith was elected as her successor. The excellent and comprehensive nature of the work clone this year proves us exceptionally fortunate in securing so thoroughly equipped and competent an in- structor. INDUSTRIAL "TRAINING FOR LIFE." Discussing the great change in social and industrial life s 99 of recent times, the current report of the State Board says "As a result of this, children are without that familiar knowledge of industrial processes which underlies all intelligent social life; they are without stimalus and occasion for that varied and purl_>oseful motor activity out of which, as from its natural soil, intellectual power springs. "But,more important than either or both of these they have acquired a wrong mental attitude toward labor. They are ashamed of its old clothes and its dirt. With the loss of the family association has gone the idea of community of productive effort for a common purpose,—the idea of mutual aid, which has been in all times so powerful a factor in social pro�Zress. The life of the child is isolated from the life of the family, and he roes his own way as an individual_ "The need of the times is aline of handwork which shall be oontinuous throughout the school course; which shall be broad enough to satisfy all the needs of the child, and not only those which arise from his own physical and mental constitution but those which exist because he is a social creature, under obligation to give as well as to take in a world where the highest interests of all are conditioned upon the highest degree and the widest range of industrial efficiency'." From the report of the Massachusetts Commission on Industrial and Technical Education we quote the following: For the great majority of children who leave school to enter employments at the age of fourteen or fifteen, the first three or four ,years are practically waste years so far as the actual productive value of the child is concerned, and so far as increasing his industrial or productive efficiency. The employments upon which they enter demand so little intelligence and so little manual skill that they are not educative in any sense. 100 For these children, many of whom now leave school from their own choice at the completion of. the seventh grade, further school training of a practical character would be attractive and would be a possibility if it prepared for the industries. Hence any scheme of education which is to increase the child's productive efficiency must consider the child of fourteen. "Children who continue in school until sixteen or eighteen, especially if they complete a high school course, are able to enter upon employments of a higher grade, usually in mercantile pursuits, and they are able by reason of greater maturity and better mental training to learn the technique of their employment in a shorter time; but they are wholly lacking in manual skill and in what we have called industrial intelligence. For the purpose of training for efficiency in productive employments the added years which they spend in school are to a considerable extent lost years. The industries of Massachusetts need,' in ad- dition to the general intelligence furnished by the public school system and the shill gained in the narrow fields of sub-divided labor, a broader train- ing in the principles of the trades and a finer culture in taste as applied to material, workman- ship and design. Whatever may be the cost of such training, the failure to furnish it would in the end be more costly." In its "Recommendations," the Commission says "There seem to,be two lines in which industrial education maybe developed,—through the existing public school system, and through independent industrial schools. In regard to the former, the Commission.recommends that cities and towns so modify the work in the elementary schools as to include for boys and girls instruction and practice in the elements of producove industry, including agriculture and the mechanic and domestic arts, 101 and that this instruction be of such a character as to secure from.it the highest cultural as well as the . highest industrial value; and that the work in the high schools be modified so that the instruction in mathetilatics, the sciences and drawing shall show the application and use of these subjects in indus= trial life, with especial reference to local industries, so that the students may see that these subjects are not designed primarily and solely for academic purposes, but that they may be utilized for the purposes of practical life. That is, algebra and geometry should be'so taught in the public schools - as to show their relations to construction; botany to horticulture and agriculture; chemistry to agri- culture, manufactures and. domestic sciences; and . drawing to every form of industry." The absolute Necessity of some attempt on the .part of the public schools to meet this.imperatide demand is becom- ing daily more apparent. It must be. done gradually in most communities, .and .those most alive to their.obligations to the rising generation will take the initiative: Others will procrastinate until the strong arm of the State shall compel theta to do their duty to the children and to their fellowmen. - In.attempting to fit the work of the schools of Barnstable to.meet the needs, _present and prospective, of their pupils we are met by . LOCAL CONDITIONS AND NEEDS offering peculiar difficulties. We are a country community, . yet'riot a community of farmers; we are classed ds a group of "fishing villages," yet few of our inhabitants are fisher- men ; our "summer business" is profitable financially, but is far from being so in some other ways. . We have no manufacturing industries, and most of our other industries are intermittent in character and inconsiderable in extent.. Few of our people are obliged to do daily a given amount H� 102 of work, at and in a given time, and of a given standard of excellence. Thus there are few outward conditions tending to create the habit of continuous and effective industry, so valuable an asset in efficient citizenship. Is it surprising that the average pupil, when asked what he intends to do or to. be answers "I don't know," or "going away, " or murmurs something about a "store"? Yet the introduction of manufacturing industries on certain parts of the Cape would be quite possible. should transportation by any means be cheapened and improved, and already we hear hinted the possibility of a revival of farming in the form of "intensive agriculture." It argues well for the enterprise of the people of Barnstable, that almost alone among the towns of the Cape, it is increasing in population and valuation. After a long struggle with the ultra-conservatives, the high school, in the introduction of commercial training, took a long step forward toward meeting the real needs of its pupils. Our grammar schools, though they too have advanced, have not yet entirely eliminated the process of stuffing the heads of the pupils with "innumerable dead vocables," and calling it "fostering the growth of the mind." Thoughtful people are demanding that the "Three R's " shall be taught, not less, but more thoroughly, than ever before, but that they shall be taught with reference to meeting the real needs of daily life. They are asking that the child be taught to observe and to reason upon the ordinary phenomena of nature, that his hand shall be trained along with his brain in order .that he may escape the threefold curse of physical laziness, manual incapacity and mental flabbiness. No one who knows the parents of Barnstable doubts that they will ultimately do their duty by the children of our grammar schools as they are already doing it by those of our high schools. 103 A FEW COMPARISONS.

GALGER, Superintendent of Schools.- In this report I have considered not so much last year's work as that of the last'two years, as by so doinu I can give a much fairer estimate. There is a special reason, at this tirne, for considering two ,years instead of one, as they mark the.beginning of what must necessarily be a new epoch in the history of the school: PUPILS. The change from the old cramped quarters has had a marked effect on the attitude of the pupils toward the school as a whole. There has been a greater willingness to co-operate with me in the care of school property, an increased interest in their work, a greater pride in their school home, and a higher degree of respect for themselves and their teachers. More, perhaps, than they realize, they have come,to share the burden of discipline, t6 work more harmoniously with the teachers and with one another. We .,are cormn(r to understand somewhat better that each one is an inipor'tant member of the school, and that his conduct day by clay, not only affects his own work, but that of the school as a whole, his school. There has also sprung up a greater ambition to obtain an educational training beyond that afforded by a high school. The advantage of two years at a normal school is being felt by an ever increasing number, of which the girls are as yet in the majority. The boys are drawn toward the technical schools, and I consider that I am well.within the truth when I say that at least one-half of the boys would prepare for an 106 engineering course at some technical school were such a course, for financial reasons, possible for them. Of last year's class of twenty members, there were but two who did not hope to continue their education at some higher institution. FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE. In the winter of 1906, to add to the interest in the study of Commercial Geography, an arrangement. was made whereby letters could be received from other,lands. We were so far successful in this that communications were received from Australia, Belgium, France and Canada. With the assistance of Fraulein Caroline Stark of Munich, a teacher of long experience in many lands and a linguist of marked ability, I succeeded in obtaining correspondents in Germany for the members of the classes in German. . In several instances the results have exceeded my expectations and the correspondence has continued for a year, each new letter or postal seeming; but to add to the interest of the correspondents. It is my hope that we may in some way establish a like communication between pupils in France and the members of the French class. PHYSICS. Until this year we had practically no apparatus of any value, and the work in this department was, of necessity, somewhat unsatisfactory and interest in the work was sadly Iacking. With the installation of the new equipment there has 'been a marked change. The pupils have had the opportunity of seeing things happen. In some instances I have observed with pleasure an eagerness for knowledge spring up in pupils who before found all school work- drudgery. As a result, this interest has communicated. 107 itself to other' studies and may be the means of keeping in the school those who otherwise might fail.to complete the course. The boys, at least, unite with me in wishing that we may ere long have a bench or two with such tools and material as will enable us to make for ourselves the simpler forms of apparatus. COM31ERCIAL COURSE. The work in this department is in a fair way of proving itself a success if one can judge by the interest aroused in the pupils and their close application to the daily work. SPEAKERS. It is my wish to bring^ the pupils into touch with repre-_ sentative men, not connected in any way with school work, and to have them from time to time listen to talks by these men. Last year I was fortunate in securing Mr. Edward L. Chase, Rev. H. T. Torosyan, and-Capt. William Wyer. THE BUILDING. As time hoes on we are coming to realize more and more to how much greater advantage we can work in our new building than in the old. The rooms are large and well lighted. The ventilation is excellent, and the heating facilities adequate. So far the rooms have been so well heated that no class exercise 'has been omitted or delayed even in the coldest weather. THE SCHOOL GROUNDS. The school grounds are so well situated, and the advaii- tages of the location are so great that it seems to me that with a little care and forethought it will be possible to have as attractive school grounds as can be found anywhere. I would suggest that before many more shrubs and trees 108 are planted that some good landscape gardener be employed to plan a scheme for beautifying the grounds that can be followed in the years to come. L. M. SOODY. 109 REPORT OF THE COMMERCIAL INSTRUCTOR. To Mr. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: I present herewith my first annual .report as commercial instructor in the Barnstable High School. The commercial .department is well equipped, and the conditions under which we work compare favorably with those of other towns of the same size which have come under my observation, and are .much better than: those found in many schools. .The only distinctively commercial study pursued 'by the entering class is Commercial Geography, two terms of which follow one of Physical Geography. The second year, two terms are devoted to a rapid review of Arithmetic, special attention being given to commercial discounts, profit and loss, interest, insurance, and stocks and-bonds. The last term,business practice is taught. This course includes penmanship,,spelling and a sufficient knowl- edge of business forms to enable the student• to make out and receipt ordinary bills, write a check or a good business letter and make and post.simple journal:entries. .- Stenography and Typewriting are introduced in the third year and continued through the fourth. The Van Sant sys- tem of touch typewriting is used.. These two years give the student time to complete, the principles of. shorthand and have a little more than a year left for dictation and, speed work. The typewriting work of the fourth year consists of making specifications and outlines and transcribing upon the machine the dictation taken in. the shorthand class.. .The work is made as ,practical .as possible, the student using carbon paper for manifolding and learning how to take letter press copies. 110 The senior class have Bookkeeping throughout the year Alternating with Commercial Law the second and third terms. About two months are eviven to preparatory drill work, the student then starts in business for himself with a cash capi- tal, performing the routine of office work, paying for incoming vouchers, making out and receiving pay for the outgoing papers. The students take turns at the desk,, remaining there a week each, receiving deposits, making change and balancing the pass books of the other students. I consider this an especially valuable feature of the work as it imposes a responsibility similar to that of an actual business position. Bookkeeping is a subject which"seems to appeal to every one of the students. It is not only a theory to learn but something which they can do, combining the intellectual side with the motor activities. This is also true of type- writing and to a certain extent of shorthand. This is one 'reason why the commercial course is valuable. The pupils have had so much of the purely intellectual work that they are tired of it and gladly welcome a change to the more practical work of the commercial department. Another is that it appeals to the student as having a,commercial value. He sees something tangible, something which he knows has a money value, and by which, if thoroughly mastered, he can earn his living. Right here I wish to place strong emphasis upon the need of a good general training for the boy or girl who wishes to take up the commercial studies. The greatest drawback to the commercial course is the student who thinks he can hold a position and command a good salary if he knows a little bookkeeping, shorthand and typewriting. The demand is for the high school graduate with a thorough knowledge of commercial work in addition to a well rounded course of study in English, science and language. I consider an ideal 111 commercial course one which sends the students out with a thorough knowledge of commercial work,four years'training in English, natural science and one or more modern lan- guages. Such a course the Barnstable High School offers. I wish to thank the Superintendent and the Principal of the High School for their cooperation and support, which have done much toward making the commercial course a success. Respectfully submitted, GEORGIA M. SIMONS, G'o��am ee�•ciccl I928t9'2GCG09'. r 112 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING. To MR. G.. H. GALGER, _Superintendent of Schools: Complying with your request f submit this .account of the work in my department for the present year. Counting drawing as another form of expression for the child, we place it in the lower grades upon the ssme basis as language, seeking to gain fluency rather than to establish technical principles. ..In order that the children may early form this most desirable habit of drawing, we go for subject matter to their every-day experiences, choosing the familiar flowers, the common animals and the favorite toys. Frequent.. comparison of his drawing with the object and also with the work of his fellows stimulates the child to fresh effort, and his second and third trials almost invariably show keener observation and a distinct gain in the power of . representation. Series of illustrative sketches of local scenes give a wide scope for the exercise of the creative faculties and encourage the children to note the change of season and its influence upon the life of the community. All of the drawings in these grades are made in color, which although crude, appeals to the child and is perfectly legiti- mate at this stage. The appreciation of color is in most cases a slow growth, and we cannot reasonably expect little children to enjoy the subtle refinements which give such exquisite pleasure to the trained eye. We do how- ever, begin their education in this line by presenting to the children in addition to the six rainbow colors, a few of the tints, shades and intermediate hues. The children are encouraged to look everywhere for these colors and in some schools have made quite extensive collections of various colored objects. An introduction to constructive work is given by familiarizing the children with the vertical. and 113 horizontal, positions, and by leading them to apply this knowledge in practical ways, such as the arrangement of their number-, language and spelling papers. The use of the ruler in making simple measurements is also taught and a little later .in the year exercises in paper folding-and cutting will be given. Thus accustomed to consider drawing as an. every-day language, .the children come into the upper grades using their pencils naturally_and fluently. Here we begin a more systematic training of eye and hand. , 'Millet, the great painter,.:has said, ",Anybody can learn to draw, just as any- body can learn to.WTite . . . . the great thing is to learn to see. things as they,are to see i.s to draw." Believing this to be true, we endeavor constantly to :stimulate the observation-of the-pupils. In the drawing of the buttercup, for example,.we ask that the sketch shall show, not only the growth and peculiar-structure of the plaint, but. also the individualcharacteristics which mark this particular-speci- men. We.encourage more careful study of detail and- try to give the pupils some appreciation of the marvelous finish of every part. Now.they will begin to notice gradation of color,. and finding that-brilliant purple and vivid green no longer do justice to the delicate beauty of the fall aster,they will. seek to _modify these tones until they approach more closely those of-the flower. This leads almost unconsciously to the study,of color harmony, which,: always present,in nature, seems especially,emphasized- in the autumn foliage of the oaks which we use to illustrate the subject., Because we feel that ability to make rapid, accurate sketches will be of immense value to the pupils throughout life, we devote about one third of. the time to the drawing of familiar ob- jects To quicken.both sight and thought, we allow at first but three or five minutes for a sketch, asking that as few 'lines as possible be made to describe the object, but insisting 114 thac these shall show its,correct position and proportions. In later work, details are added after the dominant parts have been represented. As the one test is, '"Does the drawing look .like the object?" the pupils soon learn to criticize their own sketches, and although they thus gain a good_ working knowledge of the principles of appearance drawing, the terms of technical perspective are not men- tioned. The .accurate use of ruler and compass in the drawing of the common geometric figures is taught to the a. pupils of these grades, and here as well as in the primary schools, Christmas booklets are made involving work in both constructive and decorative design. More of this practice will come in the spring when the pupils design, construct and decorate portfolios to hold their year's drawings. It is to be regretted that more handwork cannot be given to the, pupils of the village schools. One period a week devoted in the lower grades to raffia work, and in the upper grades to knife work and sewing, would, I earnestly believe, repay.amply the slight cost of necessary equipment. The gaining, of "book knowledge" is a slow and laborious process for some of our boys and girls, and for them at least, industrial work would open another avenue to mental development, it being affirmed by our psycholobists that cultivation of the hands means also cultivation of the brain. In all the schools we are trying to lead the children to a love and appreciation of beauty in both nature and art, . and to this end occasional conversation lessons are given. A very few suggestions will set the children looking for the changes in landscape, sea and sky, and this habit of watching the flowers and trees, the sunsets and stars will give increasing pleasure throughout life. In a similar manner picture study is carried on and the pupils in this way made familiar with some of the great masterpieces. We hope, before the close of the year to be able to add some' 115 " more good pictures to our small collection, for after all, the presence of a few really fine things in a school room does more to cultivate a love for art than hours spent in talking. For the most part our walls are deplorably bare and I trust that the friends of our schools will co-operate with the pupils and teachers in securing an art fund. Of the High Schools I will spear but briefly. Unfortu- nately the conditions which prevail at Cotuit make the work there far from satisfactory and it is to be hoped that in the new building it will be possible to accomplish more and better draivinb. At Hyannis we are carrying further the work of the grades with the added facilities afforded by a studio devoted exclusively to the classes in drawing. All pupils are required to take the subject, but during the last two years may elect either mechanical or free hand drawin&. To supplement their regular work and to add to their general culture, illustrated talks are given upon "History of Art, "Household Decoration " and "Costume. " A marked interest characterizes the work of this school, and excellent results are being obtained from all the classes. Realizing the futility of a supervisor's labors without the aid of the grade teachers, I wish in closing to say a word of appreciation for their unfailing and cordial co-operation in carrying out the work planned. Very respectfully yours, GRACE C. SMITH. 116 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC. TO Mit. G. H. GALGER, Sulm)'2ntendent of Schools: : 0 My second annual report of music in the town of Barn- stable is respectfully submitted. The study of music may be considered as a language, an art and a science. In its highest function music is a language, but we cannot express ourselves 'in a language with which we are unfamiliar. Rubinstein has.said, "The study of the I usical ianguage is like that of all other languages. He who learns it in his infancy can become master of it, but at ail advanced age it is almost impossible to acquire it." Children, on entering school, have a limited.number of words in the English vocabulary, but it is unusual to find a child. with u music vocabulary. In the primary- grades the music period is devoted to laying the foundation of a.music vocabulary ; teachi.no, the scale first by rote and then by individualizing the tones. . The first term is spent with imitative work and very little dictation. Staff notation is introduced during the second term. As early as the first grade we begin to teach the fundaniental principles of time and tune. . All through the years of the primary room rote songs are taught. Through rote songs the monotones are led to distinguish the different tones and soon become able to imitate them. That such is the case is proved by the fact that many of the children who are monotones one year are able to sing either all or part of the scale the nest year. In the intermediate grades more difficult time and tune principles are taught; time and key signatures are introduced. During this time much stress is placed on individual singing. The educational advantages of the individual singing lesson are many; it encourages concen- 117 tration, quick thinking, habits of accuracy, self control, and trains the pupil to greater self reliance. The past year has shown a marked improvement along this line of individual singing. Books are used and two-part sin&in-is first studied in the intermediate grades. At the close of the ninth year, the pupils are not only able to sing three-part music but are well grounded in the,funda- mentals of rythm and melody, theory concerning the use of chromatic characters and that of common and compound time. Some attention is also given to elementary harmony (the study of intervals and scale structure) and musical history. The one period a week which it is possible to devote to the chorus work in the high schools.is of course too short a time in which to accomplish very large results, but allowing for these conditions the classes both in Hyannis and Cotuit are doing creditable work. Thanking both you and the teachers for your helpful co- operation, I am, Very respectfully yours, HELEN C. BOURASSA. B-9 118 STATISTICS. 1.

The Report of Gypsy and Brown Tail Moth Superin- tendent is respectfully submitted : In the winter and spring of 1907 the number of Brown Tail Moths taken in the Town amounted to about 45 bushels, the greater, in fact ahnost the entire number of these, were taken from the Yarmouth line to the Sandwich line on the north side. There were less than a bushel found on the entire south side. The result of the work clone is very noticeable the present year. There will be less than half that number taken this ,year. In fact, in the opinion,of the Superintendent, careful suppression of this pest for the next two years will practically free the Town of the Brown Tail Moth. The winter of 1906 and 1907 was the first of our doing scouting for the Gypsy Moth and resulted in finding four colonies: one in the village of Osterville and three in the village of Cotu.it. The Osterville colony was of ten egg clusters and was on the estate of Mrs. Halliday. There were killed here last summer, under the burlaps, about 350 .Caterpillars. This infestation is easy to handle, only a small amount of cutting and burning of worthless trees and brush being necessary. This infestation should be easily stamped out. Of the Cotuit colonies, one was located on the estate of Mr. Seth N. Handy, about 400 Caterpillars being taken here and all preparatory work for the burlap season of 1.908 has 18 been done at this infestation. Another colony was located at the estate of Mr. Horace Fisher, and about 300 Caterpil- lars were taken here last summer. None of the above infestations present especial difficulties in the way of sup- pression. The third colony in Cotuit did not develop until mid-summer and was serious. Caterpillars appeared in large numbers on the estate of Dr. A. Coolidge, opposite the Santuit House and spread to the shade trees on the street. The locality was sprayed tboroughly with Disparene, with the best results, large quantities of Caterpillars being killed. The number of Caterpillars killed under the bur- laps and by spraying was from three to four thousand. All preparatory work for the burlap season of 1908 has been done at this infestation. A careful inspection of this colony this winter resulted in finding only five egg clusters. The scout of the Town for Gypsy Moths for 1908 is in progress. Osterville and Cotuit have been inspected and four new colonies have been found, two in each village. The rest of the Town is now being scouted. A NOTE.—Under the provisions of Chapter 381, Acts of 1905, with its several amendments, the Town of Barnstable is authorized to expend in the work of suppressing Gypsy and Brown Tail Moths during the fiscal year ending Nov. 30th, 1908, the sum of $2,162.12. Of this amount you are required to expend$2,162.12 before receiving reimbursement from the State. Above this amount the State will reim- burse you 100 per cent. if the work is performed to the satisfaction of this office, and upon the presentation of proper vouchers and pay rolls. HARRY W.

During the year of 1907 there were some 175 young trees planted in the several villages of the Town,each vil- lage receiving as near as possible a like number. These were put in the bare localities where they were most needed. All young trees planted before this time were ding around and all necessary trimming done. On account of the smallness of the appropriation there was very little spraying done, but what was done showed very good results, the trees that were sprayed retaining their foliage perfect and green to the end of the,season, while the foliage on those that were not sprayed (in the same locality.) was riddled and turned brown before the leaf surface was fully developed, thus showing the treat neces- sity of spraying the elms for elm beetle. It is the earnest wish of the Tree Warden that the Town will take some action at the coming meeting and appropriate a sum sufficient to spray all the elms belonging to the Town and so save a number that would certainly die the coming season, if not sprayed.

To the School Committee of-Barnstable: In accordance with the rules of the School Committee, I have the honor to submit my third annual report on the public schools, for the year ending December 31, 1907, the same being the seventeenth in the series of Superintendents' reports. SCIIOOL BUILDINGS. REPAIRS ACCOMPLISHED. The grammar school building at Cotuit has been thoroughly renovated, the walls tinted, and new heating apparatus installed. At Santuit the interior woodwork has been varnished and minor repairs.effected. At Osterville, Vlarstons dills and the Plains minor re- pairs only have been made. At Centerville the porch has received a new flooring. At Barnstable the interior woodwork has been painted, a new roof has been put on the porch and storm windows have been applied to the north and west sides of the building. At West Barnstable new drainage ditches have been dug and piped, and the school grounds graded and seeded down. At the Training School Building, the sashes have been 6 drawn, general repairs made and a pumping engine installed. This building is now thoroughly equipped with water, stand- pipes, hose, extension ladder and other fire protection. The high school building at Hyannis has been thoroughly equipped, at considerable expense, with storm windows, and other repairs and improvements have been made. REPAIRS NEEDED. The interior of the Marstons Mills school needs complete renovation. At the Centerville school new blackboards are needed, the ceilings, should be repaired and whitewashed and the walls tinted. At the Plains and at Barnstable the ceilings should be whitewashed and new curtains provided for the latter school. At West Barnstable, the grounds having been graded, some shrubbery should be planted, and a beginning made toward beautifying the grounds in connection with those of the Linder Library. As far as can be foreseen at present, minor repairs only will be needed on the other buildings. Other improvements not strictly classifiable under the head of Repairs might be described as IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED. The desirability of installing modern sanitary improve- ments in all buildings which have grammar grades should be seriously considered, Experience has demonstrated that the gain in convenience, health and decency renders the financial expense involved insignificant in comparison. This work could be accom- plished by taking up in successive years respectively the buildings at Centerville, Cotuit, Osterville and Barnstable. The Centerville building, being already provided « ' running water, a beginning might well be made with t... school by providing, by special appropriation, for the c - strnction of a basement, with suitable equipment. I .c�,... mend the improvements here mentioned to the considera:i .. of thoughtful parents, and would also suggest the desirabih of providing every school building, where practicAle, running water. THE ELIZABETH LOWELL HIGH SCHOOL. For so small a school probably none in Barnstable count possesses a better school home than does the Cotuit hi.--, school in the new Elizabeth Lowell school building. Tw, attractive site, the gift of a well-known summer resident, ai i. the building, of modest and pleasing. design, and equippc I with modern conveniences, offer almost ideal physical con- ditions for a country school. The improvement in the spirit and administration of th school, resulting from its removal from the overcrowded and otherwise unfavorable conditions of the old building, ha., been all that was anticipated. A valuable addition to th, equipment is the piano, secured through the efforts of tbu teachers and the pupils., Mr. Davis, after a year's vigorous and effective work, left us for a more attractive position. Mr. J. C. Hall, his suc- cessor, has thus far secured excellent results. We have been exceptionally fortunate in retaining Miss Tuttle for another year.. It is pleasing to note that so many of the pupils do faithful work and show an excellent spirit. The plan of transporting physical apparatus and supplies between the two high schools has proved difficult and unsatis- factory in practice. It seems desirable that the Elizabeth 8 Lowell school be provided with a reasonable amount of physical apparatus and supplies of its own. An innovation in the school this year is that of the senior class planning a trip to Washington instead of elaborate graduation exercises. TRANSPORTATION. It was found,necessary to pay more for .equivalent as well as for additional transportation service the past year. An additional barge was found necessary for the high school service, and a new route was established from Section 5 to Section 6. The expenditures exceeded the appropriations by a con- siderable sum.. About four thousand dollars will be needed for the ensuing year. One quarter of this.large sum, devoted to retaining teachers of proved ability would do incalculable good; yet no economy would justify us in employing other than the best obtainable drivers, men of self control and ability to control children. Such men cannot be secured for niggardly compensation. A policy of rigid exclusion from transportation privileges, of those guilty of persistent misconduct, would prove bene- ficial and would undoubtedly receive the approval of thoughtful parents. Further extension of transportation conveniences would be justified only upon the most positive evidence of increased economy and efficiency. FINANCIAL. At the April meeting of the School Board it was voted that the salary of grade teachers be $45 per month for the first and second years of service and '$50 per month there- . 9 after; that the salary of grammar school principals be $75 per month ; all the above being based on a nine months' school year. The salary of high school assistants was fixed at $55 per month, and that of the principal of the Barnstable High school at $125 per month, school year of ten months. Janitors' salaries were also increased in several instances. The increase in the salary of grade teachers affected only 'those newly entering the service of the town. The expenditures for the common schools represent, for the first time, a school year of thirty-six weeks. The expenditures for transportation, fuel and janitors' salaries proved considerably greater than anticipated, the expenditures for fuel being over $400 more than usual, due to the extraordinarily cold spring, necessitating fires being kept well into June. Following is a SUMMARY OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES. Total Available Appropriations. Total Expenditures. Deficiency. School purposes, $20,515 59 $21,249 63 $734 04 Text-books, supplies, 1,200 00 1,267 14 67 14 Repairs, 1,500 00 1,353 37 +146 63 Transportation, 3,300 00 3,542 56 242 56 Totals, $26,515 59 $27,412 70 $897 11 The excess*expenditure noted is due to unforeseen extra expenses, stated approximately, as follows: fuel, $360.00; increase in janitors' salaries, $230; transportation, $240; books and supplies burned, $67—a total of$897. Expenditures for 1908 will include a larger sum for trans- portation than last year. The increase in salaries affected about one-third of the teachers, and about two-thirds of the janitors, the average increase for the teachers affected being about six and one-half per cent. ; for the janitors about twenty per cent. This increase, affecting only the fall term 10 of 1907', will be operative during the fiscal year,of 1908. The large increase in the cost of school supplies rendered it impossible to supply all that was desired last year, and an increase in the appropriation will be needed this year: . The average expenditure per pupil_annually for several years has been.about $1.62. An appropriation of $1,350 for.the ensu- ing year will permit the expenditure of about $1.70 per .pupil; this includes books and supplies of all kinds used by the scholars. There has been no relief in the situation regarding the scarcity of competent teachers, nor is any relief likely to come for a number of years. . What is the prospect for the average would-be teacher? Years of laborious and. costly preparation, followed by long years of hard and unremitting work in the most nerve-racking of professions, and for re- ward niggardly compensation and abundant and constant criticism Is it any wonder that our ambitious young people of good natural abilities turn to the more promising future offered by a business life? As for us, would-be employers of teachers, we shall have to take the worst of it and" make the best of it. PROGRESS OF THE SCHOOLS. The enrolment and membership.of the schools for the year ending June, 1907, showed a slight increase_ over the corresponding figures for the preceding year. The per cent. of daily attendance was also slightly higher in spite of.several outbreaks of contagious disease.' The annual eye and ear examination showed about the same proportion of defectives as last year. Most, of those with defective eyesight had been properly attended to. The introduction of medical inspection, as required by the laws 11 of the Commonwealth; will undoubtedly be productive of great good. MIXED SCHOOLS. The elimination of all grades above the sixth from the so- called "mixed schools" has proved decidedly beneficial, though these schools still suffer many handicaps. The mem- bership of the Marstons Mills school and of the Santuit school has been slightly reduced, while the Plains school has at present an enrolment of but ten pupils. On the opening of the fall term Miriam F. Weeks was transferred to the Cotuit Intermediate school, Miss Caroline H. Warner taking her place at the Plains school. We were fortunate in retaining Miss Perry at Santuit. Shortly after the opening of the fall term Miss Clark resigned her position at Marstons Mills and was succeeded after a brief interval by Lillian G. Chandler. PRIMARY AND INTERMEDIATE SCHOOLS. The introduction of the intermediate room at West Barn- stable has been productive of excellent results. This school, with its modern building, its arrangement of three grades to a room, and with a not unreasonable number of children in each, with the effective teaching now being done, will bear comparison with any under like conditions. The work of the teachers in the two-room buildings, is exceedingly difficult, the number of pupils and of grades being too large to allow the kind and amount of teaching that the present demands. The only relief in sight is the possible employment of student teachers without pay or with only nominal remuneration, and it is very doubtful if such assistants could be obtained. GRAMMAR SCHOOLS. The grammar schools at Barnstable, West Barnstable and Centerville retain the same principals as before. At Oster- 12 ville, Mr. Taylor, after a term of faithful and thorough work, was succeeded by Stephen W. Ferguson, and at Cotuit, Miss Adams, after a year of meritorious work, was succeeded by Cassandra L. Hall, who is doing excellent work in a difficult position. Our present grammar school principals are an exception- ally faithful and hardworking body of teachers, but for that very reason, we probably shall soon lose most of them. The truth is we can offer but slight attractions to young men. of ability and enterprise. The Training School lost its principal and two of the assistant teachers. Mr. William F. Johnson, who left us for a much more lucrative position near Boston, secured in a marked degree the active co-operation of the parents and enthusiastic work from the children. Miss Mabel M. Kim- ball resigned in June, after having devoted without reserve for six years to the service of the town her versatile talents and remarkable executive ability. The good done by such a teacher is not easily measured. Miss Gertrude M. Wilcox, after a year of brilliant work, preferred the vicinity of Boston as offering a more attractive field to the ambitious teacher. The remaining members of the force continue to give the highly efficient service which has characterized their work in the past, and the new members, Mr. A. Monroe Stowe, Miss Harriet C. Moore and Miss Mary Gregg are rapidly getting "broken in" to the peculiarly difficult work for which this school calls. In connection with the work of this school I commend to your attention the report of Mr. C. H. Morrill. BARNSTABLE HIGH SCHOOL. The Barnstable High school has had a prosperous year. Opening with an enrolment of over one hundred, it has done 13 improved work along all lines. The business and scientific courses still remain popular, and candidates from the pre- paratory courses have sustained an honorable stariding .rn their preliminary examinations. When, within a year or two, the first class to graduate from the business course, enters commercial life an opportu- nity will be offered for judging the concrete value of the course. The course should be kept rigidly on a level with other courses in the amount and quality of work demanded. A -somewhat close observation of the administration of this school strongly impresses one with the great gain ob- tained in being able to retain a principal whose knowledge of the conditions to be, faced and obstacles to be overcome has kept pace-with his ability to successfully meet them. The great body of the pupils are faithful and studious; a' small proportion are more strenuous in guarding themselves from overwork than from underwork. The parents of such as these should find in the reports of Principal Boody and of the instructor in the Commercial Course matter which should prove helpful. I commend the attention of parents to these reports. Permit me again to suggest to the community the desir- ability of making profitable use of the extensive grounds surrounding this building. MUSIC AND DRAWING. The work in music has gone on with little interruption, the Weaver system'of individual instruction continuing to prove its value. For the past few years we have been as fortunate in securing as we have been unfortunate in losing drawing supervisors of marked ability. After the bigh artistic abilities of Miss Swett bad resulted in promotion, Miss Grace C. Smith was secured.- Her marked power in 14 individual instruction soon attracted attention and she was called to an excellent position in the Bridgewater Normal school. The splendid record of the present incumbent is ample security for the value of the work being done, and I com- mend to your attention her report herein presented. PROGRESS IN TEACHING. The good effect of the work of the Teachers' Club is seen in the improved teaching in reading and geography, the major subjects of study by the club for the last two years. A new "classified speller" is being introduced, and a new series of readers has received bigh praise from the teachers. More and better work has been done in nature study than last year, and civil government has received more attention in the grammar grades. A new course in arithmetic has been introduced and a modern text-book is being put in as fast as financial condi- tions allow. A comparison of a few of the chapter headings of the new book with those of the old-line arithmetics may help to indicate the trend of the new course. The following are examples: Clothing Our People; Growing the cotton, growing the wool, shipping the material, manufacturing the material. Our Fisheries. Some Problems of the Grocer. Some Problems of the Dry Goods Merchant. Proportion Used in Agriculture. Building a House. Laying Out a Garden and Grounds. Our Shipping Interests. Army and Navy. Industrial Problems. Railroad Problems. Our Elec- tricity Interests, Etc. The intent of the course is to give persistent but varied drill on the four fundamental operations, seeking accuracy and rapidity; to offer problems measurably within the- pupil's powers, but calling for careful thinking and close 15 reasoning, and to relate all the work to the pupil's present interests and to the practical demands of his future business and social life. There has been and will be no relaxation in the effort to teach with thoroughness the "Three R's," but there is in- creasino, effort to teach these in such a way as to appeal to the natural interests of the child and to fit him to make use of the training thus acquired in his life out of school. There remains to be considered briefly one of the great fundamental defects of the school. To illustrate: John leaves school at fourteen. He is destined to become one of that great body whose livelihood is to be secured by the joint use of hand and brain. His brain has been trained somewhat, his band practically not at all. He obtains employment, often not that of his choice. Slowly, painfully, blunder- ingly, at a wasteful expenditure of time and energy, his hand learns to obey his brain. His hand training has com- menced ten years too late, and during the period when his advance should be most rapid he is handicapped and held back. Too often the result is the mediocre workinan, con- tent to do "passable" work, without ambition, or, hope of better things. The State Board has said and said truly: 64The need of the times is a line of handwork which shall be con= tinuous throughout the school course; which shall be broad enough to satisfy all the needs of the child, and not only those which arise from his own physical and mental constitution but those which exist because lie is a social creature, under obligation to give as well as;to tale in a world where the highest interests of all are conditioned upon the highest degree and the widest range.of inclustrial efficiency." Says President Roosevelt: "Our school system is gravely defective in so far as inputs a premium upowmere literary training and tends, therefore, to train 16 the boy away from the farm and the workshop. Nothing is more needed than the best type of industrial school, the school for mechanical industries in the city, the school for practically teach- ing agriculture in the country. The calling of the skilled tiller of the soil, the calling of the skilled mechanic, should alike be recognized as professions, just as emphatically as the callings of lawyer, doctor, merchant or clerk. The schools should recognize this fact, and it should equally be recognized in popular opinion. * * * * Too narrow a literary education is, for most men and women, not a real education at all; for a real education should fit people primarily for the industrial and home-making employments in which they must employ the bulk of their activities. Our coun- try offers unparalleled opportunities for domestic and social advancement, for social and economic leadership in the world. Our greatest national asset is to be found in the children. They need to be trained to high ideals of everyday living, and to high efficiency in their respective vocations; we cannot afford to have them trained otherwise, and the nation should help the States to achieve this end." That progress in this direction, especially in rural com- munities, is slow, is not surprising to those who have some acquaintance with the history of educational development. From the very beginning of the public schools, with their meagre curricula of "reading and writing," all attempts to forward the cause of democracy by broadening and human- izing the courses of study were opposed, often bitterly, not only by the forces of privilege and of vested interests and by the natural inertia and indifference of the general public, , but by the very persons to be most directly benefited by such advances. In a somewhat lessened degree this is true today. The large suburban towns and the smaller cities, free from the excessive educational machinery of the great centers, are today leaders in offering their boys and girls a . fairly adequate preparation for-an effective industrial and civic life. The rural towns lag far behind. If American 17 democracy really means "Equal opportunities for all," why should the country child; with natural capacities at least equal to those of his city brother, be.deprived of equal op- portunities for their development? It rests with the parents and voters of our rural communities to answer. But with all these things secured, our educational scheme will still prove a failure and a delusion without the good teacher, teaching by precept and example that right living means unselfish service; and without the good home, en- forcing the same teaching. We have many such teachers and many such homes in Barnstable, and in their hands rests the future of the children. It was America's greatest jurist who said, "If we work upon marble, it will perish; if we work upon brass, time will efface it; if we rear temples, they will crumble to dust; but if we work upon immortal souls, if we imbue them with principles, with the just fear of God and love of fellowmen, we engrave on those tablets something which will brighten all eternity." r Respectfully submitted, G. H. GALGER. a 1v 18 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BARN- STABLE HIGH SCHOOL. To MR. G. H. GnLGER, Superintendent of Schools: In presenting this report to you I can say with confidence that on the whole we have accomplished more during the last year than in any previous year. As a result our boys stood well in their examinations at the Institute of Technol- ogy, and, as you know, we have very favorable reports regarding the progress of our pupils who are at the Normal School. SCIENCE. At present, Physics is the only science in which we are attempting much, but in this we are accomplishing some- thing. There is a great satisfaction in dealing with a sub- ject which inspires such an interest in most boys and girls as does Physics. We are getting better results this 'year than last, and the number of boys who are looking forward to a technical education is constantly increasing. I wish we could do a far greater amount of science work with the young people. It stirs them into activity as noth- ing else in the school curriculum has the power to do. HOME STUDY. It is not so very difficult a task to hold pupils to their work while in school. It is, however, an altogether differ- ent affair to induce these same pupils to do that amount of home study that successful advancement in school work demands. During the first year of bigh school life a pupil may be able to take fair rank in class without any outside study, but I have yet to meet that boy or girl who can do up-to- 19 grade work in the second, or third, or fourth year without a certain amount of home study. 1n most instances a great deal of such study is necessray to hold one's own in the class. Even in the first year there are not many who can get along without outside work. There is, however, an increasing number of pupils who are either doing no home work or very little of it. These pupils do not hesitate to tell their parents that the school tasks are so easy that it is not necessary for them to study at home. Consequently there is surprise in many a home circle when one of my notices arrives conveying the infor- mation that the pupil in question is doing unsatisfactory work, and will of necessity fail of promotion unless he assumes a different attitude toward his studies. Pupils are divided into two classes, loafers and workers. Each-pupil belongs to one or the other of these two classes, and his rank in school indicates with a fair degree of accuracy of which class he is a member. Let me give you one instance of the thing we have to combat—this is not an isolated instance. A girl came to me one morning--she was doing review work too—with the following request, all too common a one this last year. "May I be excused in X—today?" "Have you, a good reason for asking to be excused?" I inquired. She hesitated, and finally said, "Well, you see I went to a dance last night and did not get home until three o'clock this morning." Our supervisor of Drawing noticing one morning that her class appeared inattentive, and lacked life, turned aside from her work for a moment, and found on inquiry that some of the class had spent each-evening of the week away from home, many two or three evenings in the same way, and all had been out the previous evening. Under such circum- 20 stances as these, is it any wonder that so many fail to meet the requirements? I make no complaint against the.honest worker, be he ever so slow. I am willing to give to him all the time at my disposal. Oder and over again, have I announced to the pupils that at any time in school—when not busy with a class—or at my house, I am willing to help them, but I con- sider that time should not be taken from the honest worker, and used in propping up the fellow who loafs his evenings on the street, hanging around the post office, the railroad station, or the pool rooms, or the girl whose social obliga- tions demand all her time to the exclusion of her school work. If parents of such as these expect their sons and daughters to get along in the high school they must keep these sons and daughters at home evenings or until their school work is attended to iri the way it should be. It is in this matter that the home can most effectively co-operate with the school. SCHOOL GROUNDS. Last year, I expressed the wish that some competent per- son be employed to draw up a plan for the improvement of the grounds surrounding the school. I earnestly hope that the matter may not be entirely forgotten or put aside as not worthy of consideration. GIFTS.

As acting principal whatever I say can be only a statement of my opinion, for of course the principal of the Normal School is final judge of the methods and plans that any teacher may advocate for the Training School. But now that an opportunity has come to consider the work of the Training School with those of my fellow townsmen who are interested in the schools and education, I should like to discuss the question over which there is much misunderstanding, and concerning which I have met most criticism,—that is, the industrial work. It is sometimes said that the time is taken from the study of the three R's and given to gardening, basketry and other forms of manual work. Such is not the fact. We actually give as much time to the study of the three R's as was ever given to those subjects and give extra time to our industrial work. This' is the true state of the case and answers the criticism: This does not settle the question, however. Most of the progressive schools in the Middle West, En(,- land, Germany and Switzerland, all plan to use but .half the day for the study of the three R's and give the rest of the day to manual endeavor of one kind or another. I think that I am not putting it too strongly when I state that all modern educators who can see the trend of progressive thought in educational fields, would say that our work in the three R's would be more effective and of much more perma- 23 nent value if a part of every day now given to these subjects should be given to labor in some useful occupation. There is no doubt of the value of reading, writing, spell- ing and arithmetic,—they are fundamental because useful in the business of living. They aid us in dealing with our crops, aid us in our manufacturing, in our acquisition of knowledge, or in acquiring the thoughts of man. They are, then, aids or helps to our real limnq, but such necessary helps that we sometimes think they are more essential than the real living. We are trying, at the Training School, to show by actual experience the value of reading, writing and arithmetic. These subjects in the past were taught as something, to be used in the future; we are trying to make them seem useful in the present. We believe that anything made of value to present conditions will be learned more willingly and will be of greater service in the future.- The garden work gives one basis for writing English. Writing letters for seeds is better than writing letters to John Brown or John Doe for materials that never existed. Board measure applied to real_lumber is better than board measure applied to imaginary lumber. Reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, get reasonable basis for consideration out of the everyday experiences of the child and his experiences come through his activities—through what*he does in the world. The time has gone by when anyone can doubt the value of such work. That the aims and ideals of your Training School are ap- preciated is seen by the many strangers, visitors from all over the United States-and Europe, that have visited us the past few years and the unusually cordial welcome Mr. Bald- win has received during his trip abroad.. He has had an opportunity to tell of the work of your Training School be- 24 fore large gatherings of educational people in Scotland and England and has been very well received. We are grateful to those who have given their support to the work so well begun. There is yet much to do. We have not reached the end of progress by any means. We are moving and we need the hearty support and interest of all the fathers and.mothers to make the school what it can and will be. Do not criticise from the outside, come and see and help. C. H. MORRILL, Acting Principal H. N. S. 25 REPORT OF THE COMMERCIAL INSTRUCTOR. To MR. G. H. GALGER, ~Superintendent of Schools: The commercial department is still in a prosperous condi- tion. A strong effort has been made to raise the standard of this department, and it gives me great pleasure to report that the senior class, at least, is doing more and better work in both bookkeeping and shorthand than last year. The ad- visability of allowing only the two upper classes to take the distinctively commercial branches becomes more and more apparent. In this respect we have taken a long step in ad- vance of schools whose commercial courses are so planned that the entering class studies either shorthand or bookkeep- ing or both. The interest and attention of these advanced classes and the generally co-operative spirit are all favorable indications. There has been practically no change in the course as outlined in last year's report. Commercial law has been incorporated with bookkeeping and two periods of junior stenography added. Bookkeeping and typewriting continue to be popular, appealing to a larger number of pupils, I believe, than any other subjects. We are seriously handicapped in the study of stenography by lack of time. It will never be possible to do satisfactory work until the course is so arranged that each class has at least five periods a week in both shorthand and typewriting. By satisfactory work I mean sending out students who can successfully compete with graduates of the best business colleges and strong commercial courses in other high schools. However, taking into consideration the time we have to spend on this subject, both classes are doing creditable work. The great need of the two lower classes is more home 26 study. When a pupil enters high school he should expect to do a large share of his studying outside of school. Most of the failures in these classes are due not to lack of ability, but to the lack of preparation. In many cases the pupil insists that he has not time to study at home, but if ques- tioned closely the fact is usually brought out that he has the time, but. spends it in other ways. It is the work of the school to correct this tendency, but in many cases it is slow and disheartening work. Parents can greatly assist the school by insisting that books be brought home and that the boys and girls are in the house and at work on assigned lessons at a reasonable hour. It is certainly unfortunate, to say the least, that so many of our young people are allowed to keep such irregular hours. Such irregularity is fatal to scholarship. Above all, the boy or girl who chooses the commercial course and looks forward to a business career should form early habits of regularity and close application to work. What the pupils need to realize more fully is that school is a business, not a pastime; and that lessons to be learned take precedence of social functions. Respectfully submitted, GEORGIA M. SIMONS, Commercial Instructor. 27 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING. Mu.. GEoxGE 1=I. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: The results of five months' service as supervisor of draw- ing in.your schools form an insufficient basis for a satisfac- tory report. The aims of the drawing teachers of Massachu- setts, with full explanations of the courses of study adopted throughout the state, have been ably presented by my predecessors. It is evident that these ideal courses must be adapted to the varying conditions existing in our rural schools. Close observation of results, as shown by the work of the average child, raises these questions: Is it wise where four or five grades must.be taught in one room to attempt to pre- sent, each year, all the inspiring and delightful phases in the ideal courses prepared for closely graded schools? Should not the partially graded, elementary school teach the essen- tials of drawing patiently and persistently, leading their pupils to enjoy doing simple things well? The possibilities in material offered by the open country should be made to compensate, in a degree, for some of the resources that the city child may resort to in the shops and museums. Let us make the most of our out-door surroundings. The supervisor's attempt to teach in each room once a week leads to hurried lessons and.a division of responsibility that weakens the work. The Cotuit school should have more time than can be given it under the present schedule. Fort- nightly visits, allowing longer time for each room, would give better results. Faithful, earnest teachers and unusually responsive chil- dren make this town an attractive field in spite of the limita- tions imposed by its widely separated villages and the necessity for several grades in each room. The one-room 28 buildings, with their possibilities of individual work, when the school is not overcrowded, are full of-interest, and the children in these buildings are by no means unfortunate. The advantages of the three-room village school over the one of two rooms are marked. Parents do not realize the loss that must come to their children when four or five grades are taught in one room or when a room of three grades is overcrowded. Possibly these facts are more ap- parent to a newcomer than to those accustomed to things as they have been. The mechanical drawing in the high schools has been made elective in the first, instead of the third year, with satisfac- tory results. This step could not have been taken at Cotuit without the active co-operation of the high school teachers. The principal is now teaching .the mechanical drawing be- cause of the crowded schedule previously mentioned. As a body the boys of both high schools are greatly interested in mechanical drawing. Their attitude towards it and their desire for practical work with wood-working tools, work that should be the direct outgrowth of their drawing, suggest desirable possibilities along the lines of industrial education referred to in the superintendent's report for 1906. The new high schooi building at Cotuit has an unfinished office where an immediate beginning can be made by fitting up a workshop at small cost. Let us start with the simplest equipment possible for work and our boys will convince you that both time and money have been well spent. . Should the bill to promote industrial education, now be- fore the legislature, be enacted, the State would.stand ready to aid any town desiring to undertake industrial education in its schools. The provisions of this bill make it possible for a live town to give its schools the benefit of some of the plans for social and technical training proposed by the pres- ent Industrial Commission. 29 The value to the boy of the training that gives him some knowledge of materials and forces and makes his hand serve his brain, has been fully demonstrated wherever the mechanic arts have been taught. Such training, when limited to high schools, fails to reach many boys who need it most, the boys who hate to study and who leave school the first day the law permits. We do not ask for industrial training for the sake of the boy who is going to Technology, but for the awakening and development of those who are either obliged or allowed to leave school early, probably to enter the ranks of unskilled labor for life. These boys begin to drop out of school in the seventh grade, and.they must be reached in the grammar school or not at all. We can not afford to ignore this class and plan for our high schools alone. Hand training, wherever it has become an established feature*of the grammar school, has more than justified its right to its position. The work done commands the respect of all inter- ested in the all-round development of boys. Country schools cannot have the finely equipped work- s'hops of the cities, but they can teach in their grammar schools elementary problems in wood work properly con- nected with the drawing. This can be done with a much simpler outfit than is commonly demanded. In our own schools there are boys eager to begin making real things. Their teachers are ready to give the necessary instruction and we ask all parents and interested citizens to look into these matters and give them their careful consideration. The conditions today are hot those of ten or even five years ago;A he demands of the age call for the best possible training of the young and our schools should strive to meet these demands. Respectfully submitted, LUELLA FAY MAYNARD. Feb. 8, 1908. 30 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC. To MR. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: In this report I have chiefly endeavored to compare the i work of this year with that of the two preceding years. A number of the primary grades were, and still are doing excellent work, and in others there has been a marked im- provement. From a musical standpoint a child is either a positive, who is always sure of his tones; a passive, who sometimes sings correctly and sometimes does not; or a neg- ative, commonly known as a monotone. The greatest draw- back in these grades is the monotone. In a room where the majority of the children are monotones,progress is slow. As soon as the child enters school a strong effort is made to overcome this difficulty. He learns by imitation and the tones must be repeated over and over until he can sing them correctly. Many of the children who are now in the fourth grade were almost hopeless monotones during their first year in school. They can now sing the scale correctly, and join in the room singing with a pleasing result. In these grades much credit is due to the teachers, who by patient and constant effort, have gradually brought about this change. In the intermediate grades much time is devoted to individual singing. There has been a marked improvement both as to the degree of accuracy in singing the exercises and the time it takes to sing them, so that this year we have been able to sing more songs, and give some time to artistic development. Good work in sight singing has been done in the grammar grades. In some rooms the pupils are singing three part music very creditably. The new books with which the rooms have been supplied are an incentive to better work. 31 While it is to be regretted that more time can not be given to the chorus work in the High scboojs, it can be said that the singing has improved from year to year. More of the boys ,join in the work, and their parts are much stronger than ever before. In closing, I wish to thank the teachers of the town for their co-operation, which has made it possible to obtain results otherwise impossible. Respectfully submitted, HELEN C. .BOURASSA. 32 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE COTUIT HIGH SCHOOL. To MR. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: I have the honor to present herewith my first annual report: - The past year has marked an epoch in the development of Cotnit High School. Our new building has been completed and the current school year commenced its session in it. I had no opportunity to observe the school in its former cramped quarters,but the change to this light,well-ventilated well-heated building must have had a marked effect on the esprit de corps of the student body. This may be seen by . the ambition of this year's graduating class. This class numbers ten, no less than five of whom,—four boys and one girl,—have expressed a determination to go further in their educational work and are planning to enter college. These pupils are not planning to go to Normal or Technical schools, which are also goals worth striving for, but they are reaching out after education in scientific and classical colleges. Such' ambition as is shown by this class and by other classes here that are coming along should receive all the en- couragement possible. GROWTH. It was not many years ago that Cotuit High school was but a higher grammar school with a two years' course. Recently the course was changed to four years, and more recently still an assistant was added to the teaching'force and the courses extended. Now we have a bright, new building and we are reaching forward to take our place beside the best country high schools. But we sadly feel the lack of proper apparatus for our scientific and commercial 33 branches. Such material once supplied will be useful for a long series of years. CO-OPERATION. As teachers we would like to get on a more intimate social basis with the parents of our boys and girls. Our pupils need that stimulation for work that only comes when teachers and parents are working along the same lines. Too often it is the case that the parent-knows nothing of the school environment of his child, and likewise it is too true that the teacher is unacquainted with home surroundings. These circumstances do 'not affect the enthusiasm of the worker-pupil, as nothing can stop the real worker, but the drone-pupil,—how much the teacher does need parental backing to get results, can never be realized by any one until that one takes the teacher's place. Your present teachers pledge themselves to help their pupils toward a larger, more fruitful life, but we cannot ,wholly supply the initiative or wholly awaken an unformed ambition for better things. Our time must be spent on the ambitious, the live, the eager pupil. We cannot allow our- selves to be pulled back by the drones at the expense of the workers: The parent must co-operate with us and insist on regular, conscientious home study by the pupil, even if it. is at the expense of foregoing a few trivial social affairs. Otherwise our work as teachers will not show results. Let us get together and pull together for the upbuilding of the standard of our schools, our community, our town. I wish to take this opportunity to express publicly my, appreciation of the co-operation of my assistant, of.the un- tiring effort for better things of our drawing instructor, and Of the help and support of our Superintendent.

The report of the gypsy and brown tail moth superin- tendent is respectfully submitted During the winter of 1907-8 the town was scouted for brown tail mothi with very satisfactory results, only about seven bushels being taken. This was a very marked de- crease over 1907, when about 45 bushels were taken over the same territory. The Superintendent is very sorry to say that the work on the brown tail moths in towns this side of Boston was neglected in 1908, thus causing large numbers of caterpillars to appear. After these had stripped the trees they pupated and the moth came out and flew down and covered this section of the Cape. In fact there will be as many, if not more, taken this year than ever before- in the town. If every land owner will look his trees over, both for the brown tail and gypsy ,moth, it will greatly help the Super- intendent. The scout for the gypsy moth, during the winter of 1907- 8, resulted in locating six new colonies, the account of which is given below, with the number of egg clusters and the number of caterpillars taken under the burlap at each colony. Mr. H. C. Everett, Barnstable, 1 egg cluster, no cater- pillars, colony stamped out. Dr. Fawcett estate, Hyannis, 1 pupa, no caterpillars, colony stamped out. Mr. Bigelow Lovell, 0sterville, 12 egg clgstel•§r ?00 caterpillars. 106 Mulberry Corner, Osterville, 20 egg clusters, 125 cater- pillars. Wallie Harlow, Cotuit, 50 egg clusters, 5,000 caterpillars- Horace Sears, Cotuit, 21 egg clusters, 4,000 caterpillars. In the colonies located during the winter of 1906-7 the following account is given Mrs. Halliday, Osterville, no caterpillars. Colony stamped out. Mr. Seth N. Handy, Cotuit, no caterpillars. Colony stamped out. Horace Fisher, Cotuit, 63 caterpillars. Colony will have to be burlapped another season. Dr. Coolidge, Cotuit, 58 caterpillars. Colony will have to be tended another season. All the colonies were sprayed and large numbers of cater- pillars were killed from eating this sprayed foliage. Out of ten colonies that have developed up to last fall, four have been stamped out and no further work will be necessary on them. The scout for the winter of 1908-9 is now in progress, a greater part of the town having been inspected, with the re- sult of finding four new colonies One on the Edson Estate, Cummaquid, of four egg clus- ters. One at the Plains, near school house, of two egg clusters. One in Cotuit, on the estate of Wallace Ryder, of 12 egg clusters. One at Pondsville of one egg cluster. The only colonies that look at all serious are those at Mr. Wallie Harlow's and Air. Wallace Ryder's in Cotuit. These have a quantity of rubbish and worthless brush that Ni ill be cleared away preparatory to the burlap season. None of the other infestations appear serious and should require no special attention in the way of suppression. HARRY W. BODFISH, Local Superintendent. REPORT OF TREE WARDEN. The work of the Tree Warden during the past year has been directed towards preserving the elms throughout the town. A compressed gas outfit was bought and used with good results as far as the appropriation would permit. The large elms in the village of Centerville were sprayed and about twenty loads of dead wood taken out. The elms on the State Highway in Hyannis were sprayed and, although the work was a little late, good results -were seen here. The dead wood was also removed from these trees. The nee- essary digging around young trees and trimming was done. A part of the trees in Barnstable were sprayed. It is hoped by the Tree Warden that a sufficient amount of money will be appropriated in 1909 to spray all the elms in the town as they are sadly in need of it on account of the prevalence of elm beetles, which have appeared in large numbers during the past two years all over this section of the state. We now have a good outfit for the care of these trees and if the money could he provided much good could be done and many trees saved that will otherwise die. The spraying not only guards against elan beetles but against all leaf-eating insects. HARRY W. BODFISH, Tree Warden. REPORT OF THE TOWN CLERK. BIRTHS.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. i To the School Committee of Barnstable In accordance with the rules of the School Committee. I have the honor to submit my fourth annual .report on the public schools, for the year ending December 31, .1908, the same being the eigliteenth in the series of Superintendents' reports. SCHOOL BUILDINGS. REPAIRS ACCOMPLISI3ED. A considerable excess of expenditures over the appropri- ation will be noted under the head of Repairs. When re- pairs. were commenced.on the buildings at Centerville and at Cotuit each was found to be much in the condition of the historic gun which needed a new lock, stock and barrel. It is not unlikely that this may be found. true of,one or two others of our school buildings. The interior of the Centerville building• was thoroughly zn cleaned, the ceilings were tinted, the walls painted, and the woodwork varnished. Slrite blackboards were installed in both rooms and the water supply improved. The ex- terior of the building_- was painted, the roof shingled and the fence painted, and a new topmast supplied to the flagpole. The total cost was about $650. Four young trees, with appropriate guards, were set obit by a public-spirifee c}t - zen. 122 The'work done to the interior of the Cotuit building was similar to that at Centerville, and a new floor was laid in one of the rooms. A new furnace and fittings installed in 1907 were paid for in 1908. It was found necessary to construct a new well at the Elizabeth Lowell school at a cost of about one hundred dol- lars. The. total cost for both buildings was about $670. At the Training School a new water tank was found to be necessary and was constructed at a cost of about one hun- dred dollars. Forty-two Allen shades were added to those already put in, completing the number necessary for the building. The total cost for this building, including minor repairs, was about $350. At the high school at Hyannis the total expended for miscellaneous repairs was slightly over$200. At Marstons Mills the interior of the building was painted, the ceiling and walls tinted, new curtains furnished and the building generally renovated, at a cost'of about $200. At West Barnstable the exterior of the building was painted and storm windows were furnished. In the other buildings the repairs were mostly of a minor character. The repairs above mentioned, together with the cost of new seatings and of janitors' supplies; totalled $2,518.49. REPAIRS NEEDED. To attempt to state what repairs are needed is a somewhat risky proceeding unless it is understood that large latitude be allowed for additions. The exterior of the Barnstable and the Marstons Mills schools could be painted with advantage, and if possible some arrangement should be made for improving the light in the latter school.. Light, heating, ventilation and sanitation of the Osterville 123 building are all,unsatisfactory. The cost of putting this building into proper shape would be so great as to raise the question whether a new building would not be the more de- sirable solution of the question. In this connection it should be noted that there is every prospect of an increased enrol- nient in this school. It would seem that minor repairs should suffice for most of the other buildings, unless the question of fire escapes on the Centerville, Barnstable and Cotuit buildings be taken up. The staircases at the Barnstable building seem to have been built on the lighthouse model and would be exceedingly dangerous in case of fire. Those at Centerville are straight, but exceedingly steep and narrow, while those at Cotuit are but a slight improvement on those at Barnstable. It would seem advisable that suitable alterations be made in these staircases or that proper fire escapes be provided. Both our high schools are now well provided with phys- ical and chemical apparatus but neither school has adequate means for their proper care and storage: Cabinets or closets should be built for the purpose, though the expense will be considerable. Through the courtesy of Mr. James Otis, a plan for the gradual development and improvement of the high school grounds at Hyannis, carefully worked out by one of our leading landscape artists, was submitted to the Board, and received its hearty approval. ' Many have expressed the wish to cooperate with the Board in carrying out the plan. Adequate playgrounds should be provided at the Elizabeth Lowell and West Barnstable schools. The land at the rear of the Elizabeth Lowell building should be cleared up for use as a playground, and the front yard preserved for orna- mental purposes. The West Barnstable school is surrounded by town land, of less value per acre than some land near city schools per foot, and there seems little excuse for unduly 124 limiting the playground here. The child who dawdles at his play, either through lack of energy or'of proper oppor- tunity, is likely to dawdle at his work as well. TRANSPORTATION. As stated elsewhere the cost of transportation the past year has been approximately four thousand dollars. There is little prospect that it will be less in the future.. An undoubted improvement has taken place in the con- duct of the pupils on the barges and trains and it is the intention of the Board to enforce rigidly.the.instructions of the last annual meeting— Exasperating and persistent and sometimes serious as are many of the annoyances connected with transportation, we are, perhaps, inclined to forget that 'there is something to-be said on the side of safety in num- bers. The.,advantages- of consolidation of.. schools in1- mensely outweigh the disadvantages, the actual transporta- tion itself being almost the only serious drawback. :. MEDICAL INSPECTION. In accordance with the state law relating thereto, the town voted a sum of money to be used for payment for the services of a.medical inspector of the public schools. Dr. J._Haydn Higgins was elected to .that ,position, and his report will be found elsewhere. Small as has been the amount of time, owing to the in- significant appropriation, that could be,given to inspection, the work done has such high value that it is of ,the utmost importance that it should be extended, and thus result in the great benefits that have everywhere accompanied this work when seriously undertaken. Elaborate schemes of education amount to little when ,applied to children with defective bodies and unfavorable physical surroundings. 125 RESIGNATIONS AND APPOINTMENTS. Comparatively few changes in the teaching• force occurred during the year. Mr. John C. Hall, after one year of en- ergetic work at Cotuit, resigned to accept a position in Cambridge, and Miss Ella Tuttle, to whom the Cotuit high school owes a lasting debt of gratitude for three years of de- voted and able service, resigned to yo to Athol. It would certainly seem good policy to increase the maximum salary for the principal of this school, in the hope of retaining some one as principal more than one year. The school is still in its formative period, and suffers greatly by such constant change. Miss Estelle Phinney and Miss Annie Harwood, after sev- eral years of enthusiastic and notably effective work in the primary schools of West Barnstable and Centerville respect- ively, resigned in June. Miss Helen C. Bourassa, Supervisor of Music, always a cheerful and willing worker in a trying position, resigned during, the summer. Mr.Edward H. Leonard, of Boston, was elected principal, and Miss Alice P. Paine, of Groveland, assistant teacher of the,Elizabeth Lowell high school. Miss Elizabeth M. Davis, of Cambridge, was elected teacher of the primary school at Centerville. Miss G. M. Perry was transferred from San- tuit to the primary school at West Barnstable, and Miss C. H. Warner was transferred from the Plains school to San- _tuit. Miss Ethel M. Horsman of Plymouth was elected Su- pervisor of Music. Mr. Stephen W. Ferguson, who had done faithful service at Osterville, resigned in December and Mr. H. B. Gould, of Boston, was appointed in his place. Of the thirty teachers in service, all'but one or two have received college or professional training, a strong contrast to the conditions obtaining fifteen or twenty years ago, 126 CHANGES IN RULES AND REGULATIONS. Attention is called to changes-in the school Rules and Regulations, as follows: Art. rI, sections 4 and 5 ; Art. III, sec. 6; Art. iv, sec. 14; Art. y, sec. 16 ; Art. vli, sec. 3. FINANCIAL. Following the custom begun last year, a resume of expen- ditures for the fiscal year follows. CLASSIFICATION OF ACCOUNTS. All expenditures are by checks issued by the town treas- urer from payrolls audited and approved monthly by the School Board, one set of such payrolls going to the town treasurer, and a duplicate set being kept on file at the office of the School Board, where the corresponding bills and vouchers are classified and filed and are preserved for not less than three years. If an unexpended balance remains from the total school appropriation it is withheld by the town treasurer and is not assigned to the school account the succeeding fiscal year. If the expenditures exceed the ap- propriation the excess is paid from the town treasury and the school account is not debited for it the following year. The school account is thus closed every year., Expenditures from January 1, to the annual town meeting are made "in anticipation of appropriations." There are four sets of payrolls, viz. : 1, School Purposes; 2, Text-Books and School Supplies; 3, Repairs; 4, Trans- portation. School Parposes. The bills under ",School Purposes " are again sub-divided under the Fheads'a"Salaries of Teachers," "Salaries of Jan- itors," "Fuel" and "Miscellaneous." Under "Miscellan- eous" are included a great variety of bills, mostly small, 127 which cannot well be placed under other headings; they in- clude bills for the annual school census, graduation expenses, water, printing, telephone, freight and express, etc. The aim is to place as few bills as possible under this head. The expenditure for "School Purposes" for 1908 over- runs about five hundred dollars, due to the fuel account. For some time past it has been the custom to carry over a portion of the fuel indebtedness to the succeeding year, as a large portion of the fuel purchased in the fall of a given year is not used until the next year. It was thought best to abolish this custom and all fuel debts were paid, leaving that account with a clean docket. So far as possible the same plan has been adopted in all the other school accounts. The total expenditures for fuel for the year 1908 were $2,413.94 against $1,903.78 for 1907. The efl'ect'of the increased salary schedule is becoming apparent and will be more in evidence in the future if by it many teachers remain long enough to receive the maximum wage. The present schedule fixes salaries of teachers as follows : "Grade" teachers, four hundred five, four hun- dred fifty and four hundred ninety-five dollars annually for the first, second and third years of service respectively; grammar school principals, seven hundred two dollars an- Dually; high school assistant teachers, five hundred seventy- five dollars annually ; principal of the high school at Hyan- nis, fourteen hundred dollars annually; principal,of the high school at Cotuit, eight hundred dollars annually; super- visor of drawing, six hundred fifty dollars, supervisor of music, five hundred dollars, and commercial instructor in the high school at Hyannis, six hundred fifty dollars an- nually. These salaries represent a decided increase on those of a few years ago, but the increase having been made on a salary schedule abnormally low, they are still far below 128 those offered by many towns. The salaries offered our grammar school principals are grotesquely inadequate, but in view of the heavy total required for the coming year the Board hesitates to recommend an increase at the present time, unless public sentiment should be expressed definitely in favor. It should be understood clearly, however, that the present great difficulty of securing capable teachers will be.likely to.hold for some years to come,, and that good teachers can and will coinmand good salaries and will go, other thin(Ys being equal, where such are offered. One cer- tain result of the salaries' we are offering our grammar school principals will be the elimination of men teachers from our grammar schools, a,distinct and serious misfortune. It is without question that the boy who finishes his school course without coming under the influence of a vigorous and practical male teacher loses much. Every„effort should be made. to avoid such a loss. The policy ultimately to be r adopted,rests with the voters. The salaries of janitors have within the last few years been increased from twenty to one hundred per cent. and in most cases are fairly adequate for services rendered. The expenditures classified as "Miscellaneous;"{are slight- ly under those of last year, and will be found under their appropriate headings. Text-Books and School. Sup1)l zes. Under the above heading are included all books, paper, ,pencils, pens, drawing materials of all kinds, supplies for the commercial course, perishable supplies used in the courses in physics and chemistry, and in general all supplies used,by pupils, but.not.those used by,janitors. .From total appropriations for the above of t1,650, including a special appropriation of $300, the sum of $1,642.78 was expended (includin(y $299.72 expended from the special appropria- tion,) leaving. an unexpended balance of $7.22. 129 At present high prices it has been found exceedingly dif- ficult to-keep within the appropriation and at the same time furnish all the supplies that could profitably be used. New text-books in physiology and hygiene are needed in nearly all the schools and the high schools should be fur- nished with dictionaries for individull use. More extended work in drawing and in physics and chemistry will call for corresponding supplies. An appropriation.of $1,450 would allow an expenditure of about,$1,.80 per pupil. Less than this would be unprofitable economy and more .could,be ad- vantageously used. Repairs: A total of $2,518.49 was expended under the head of Re- , pairs. The appropriation was $1,500. This subject will be found more fully discussed elsewhere. Traasportation. The gross payments on account of Transportation were $4,050.60. Credits of $28.50 make the actual net exl)end- iture $4;022.10. The Board asked for $4,000, but the ap- propriation was $3,700. Attendance at the Plains school during the spring term being less than nine, that school was closed. and the pupils transported to the West Barnstable school, at an additional transportation expense of $150 annually, effecting:a net Saving of about $380.

DIFFICULT CONDITIONS. Outside the Training School, conditions for effective teaching are most favorable in those buildings arranged on a three-grade,-to-a-room basis. The large numbers in the primary schools at Barnstable and Centerville have forced the pupils of the fifth grades up into the grammar schools, rendering the work of the latter extremely difficult. Even after this change was made there remained some forty-five pupils in the four primary grades at Barnstable, rendering necessary the employment of an assistant on part time, who divides her time between the primary and the grammar schools. The mixed schools at Santuit and Marstons Mills continue to suffer from the drawbacks suggested in former reports; at the former village the membership tends to increase, at the latter to decrease. Irregular attendance at Santuit makes the `work still more difficult. No "East Side" or "North End" city school offers quite so difficult a problem as that presented by the primary school at West Barnstable. In the .former schools assistants are often supplied when the-enrolment equals that of the school in question; usually but one foreign language is spoken, and never more than one grade is assigned to a teacher. It would be wholly unreasonable to expect the work of this school to measure up technically to that of a similar school composed of children of native parentage. 131 ENROLMENT, ATTENDANCE, ETC. Almost alone among the schools of the Cape the mem- bership of the Barnstable schools shows an increase, slight though it may be, from year to year. The enrolment for the fall term of 1908 was about one hundred greater than that of four years ago. It was thought that the attendance at the high schools would be less than the abnormally large attendance of 1907, but that was not the case, the enrolment of 1908 equalling that of the preceding year. The support of two high schools, with a large proportionate attendance,- adds heavily to the cost of our school system. There has been a slight decrease in the number of cases of truancy and discipline, and the general spirit of most of the schools has been fairly good. PROGRESS OF THE SCHOOLS. It would be easy to use the conventional phrase, "Our schools have had a prosperous year, but since' "-prosper- ous" is a relative term, such a statement would have but little meaning. The superintendent is unable to note any very striking improvement in the general work of the schools the past year. Possibly the greatest advance has been made in the subject of drawin , especially in the higher grades, where practical application in concrete work is made of the principles developed. Higher requirements have been adopted in music, with corresponding improvement in re- sults. Chemistry and Physics have been well taught, with ade- quate apparatus and supplies; more extensive work in both subjects will be done hereafter. Literature is perhaps being as effectively taught as the handicap of college requirements permits. 132 The wisdom of the average high school pupil attempting to learn two or three foreign languages at the same time may well be doubted. The truth is-that under such circum- stances not one pupil in ten really learns one, if by learning a language we mean gaining the power to read that language with ease and to speak it with a fair degree of facility and accuracy. Would it not be better, both from the standpoint. of mental discipline, and future pleasure and utility, for the pupil who is not to go to higher institutions to spend four years on the thorough study of one modern language, and incidentally not forget his own? History and Civics are being faithfully ,taught, but need to be brought in more vital contact with present social and civic development. The mathematical teaching is notably effective. It is gratifying to know that good and often excellent re- ports are being received of the work of, our high school graduates in higher institutions, and both native ability and effective teaching seem to be indicated thereby. I commend to the earnest consideration of parents the re- port of Principal Boody on the condition. and needs of the Barnstable High school and of Principal Leonard on those of the Elizabeth Lowell school. More attention has been paid to the teaching of history and civil government in the grammar grades, though room for further improvement remains. A marked improvement in the teaching of reading in the primary grades is apparent, though results in the grammar-grades in this subject are still unsatisfactory. The work in mathematics, as judged.by tests given by the superintendent, has been fairly satisfactory. The adoption of the "medial slant" in place of the "vert- ical" writing has proved to be no mistake, though until more 133 constant practice can be given to this subject by the school, and by the pupils after graduation, the schools will still be charged with failing to teach practical penmanship. In a few of the schools a small amount of hand training has been attempted, usually in connection with drawing. In the Training School an extraordinary number of chairs were brought in from the homes for reseating. The work was done by pupils of the sixth and seventh grades. A fitted carpenter's bench has been supplied to each of the high schools, to be utilized by the boys in connection with working drawings, and in making such apparatus for use in chemistry and physics as may prove to be practicable. THE BtiSINESS OF THE SCHOOLS. No educational scheme, however attractive, which permits slovenly work in the "Three R's" has a valid claim to tol- eration. Reading, writing, arithmetic, language, history, geography, music, drawing,—it is difficult to conceive of civilization existing without a knowledge of these. And it is the business of the public schools to teach these and to teach them. well. They certainly will not be taught well however, if they are to consist chiefly of formal and mem- oriter work, without contact with active life, and separated from those concrete activities from which they are derived and through which they obtain their meaning. These sub- jects should be taught not for the passing of examinations, but for effective use in life, and they can be so taught only when taught in connection with the life about us. But the modern school needs to do even more than this; training of hand and eye, power to execute, knowledge of the laws of nature'as they apply to industrial and social development, the ability and the will to labor concretely for the common good,—all these are fast becoming perforce the work of the school and all these can be and ultimately must be correlated B-10 134 with the technical work of the "Three R's:" If to this we add the moral and perhaps ultimately the religious training which the school may be expected to give, one begins to form some conception of the enormously difficult task im- posed upon the teacher. For such a task we need highly trained, alert, sympathetic, broadminded men and women. Are we, as a community, offering the kind of support and cooperation tending to secure and retain such teachers? HIGH SCHOOL PROBLEMS. Comparing the conditions in the high school at Cotuit with those of four or five years ago we certaiuly have cause for congratulation. But many unsolved and difficult prob- lems still remain. How with two teachers to supply the de- mands of those, the great majority, who are not to go be- yond this school, and those, the small minority, who wish to be fitted in the school for higher institutions, is the al- most impossible task imliosed. There are many who do not seem to realize that the school officials have not the power to determine, except in a very slight degree, what subjects shall be taken or omitted. The statutes require that high schools give instruction in such subjects' as shall prepare pupils "for admission to state normal schools, technical schools and colleges." To do this work alone requires a course of instruction involving over three thousand recita- tion periods per year. But nit all the work best fitted to prepare a boy for college is best fitted for the,boy who is to enter active life after leaving high school, and so additional and more varied work is involved. Thorough training in the use of his own language together with some knowledge of its literature, a liberal amount of work in history and civil government, courses in applied mathematics, accom- panied if possible with systematic hand training, a practical knowledge of the natural sciences as related to daily living, 135 some training in commercial forms and processes, and, if possible, a usable knowledge of one modern foreign lan- guage,—these, are what the boy last mentioned should get from his high school course. The double task outlined above is bevond the power of two teachers. Is it not clear that only by the heartiest co- operation of the parents and pupils with the teachers can even a portion of the difficult task be accomplished? In only slightly less difficult form the same problem pre- sents itself at the Hyannis school. The commercial course offers some relief, but is by no means suitable for all non- college candidates. In both schools the teachers are over- worked to the degree that makes it impossible that all the subjects in the curriculum be well taught. Parents could help teachers much and their children more, by insisting on a reasonable amount-of regular home study and providing a quiet place and hour for its prosecution. TRAINING SCHOOL. The Training School shows a large enrolment. An ex- cellent spirit is shown throughout the school, and it con- tinues to be a notable example of a school striving to git-e the kind of education which will meet successfully the tests both of education and of life. The work of the school will be found more fully discussed in the report of Wni. A. . Baldwin, Principal of the Normal School. CONCLUSION. After inspecting some of the work of our schools, a well- . known leader in educational affairs remarked in substance, "But you seem to be endeavoring• to train your pupils to succeed in work away from their home town, rather than in it; is this the wisest plan?" His criticism and suggestion are worthy of consideration. So to train our graduates as to lead them to improve their home surroundings, to develop 136 home opportunities, to lead effective lives in their own town, all this is certainly desirable. But this too, is true, namely, that the humble, patient and laborious processes by which those of foreign blood are gaining a foothold among us are not attractive to our modern young people, and the rush to the city is likely to continue for some time. The larger part of the children of our town come into contact almost not at all with the great typical business and industrial processes; they are thus seriously handicapped when they go to the larger industrial centres, doubly so if the school training they have received has been inferior to that of the city schools. To sacrifice much ip the endeavor to make our schools equal to the best is no more than we owe to the boys and girls who are to be our future citizens. And the school will ever be what the teacher makes it. In education, various books and implements are not the Great requisite, but: a high order of teachers. In truth a few books do better than many. The object of education is not so much to give a certain amount of knowledge, as to awaken the faculties, and give the pupil the use of his own mind; and one book, taught by a man who knows how to accom- plish these ends, is worth more than libraries as usually read. It is not necessary that much should be taught in youth, but that a little should be taught philosophically, pro- foundly, livingly." Respectfully submitted, G. H. GALGER. 137 REPORT OF THE MEDICAL INSPECTOR. To the Honorable School Cognmittee of the Town, of Barnstable, Mass. .- GENTLEMEN:— As Medical Inspector of Barnstable Schools; I have the honor of submitting the following report: In the early part of the fall term of the present school year, a visit of inspection was made to ,each of the public schools of the town. In accordance with the intent of the lase aovernina the inspection of schools, the following matters were specifically inquired into (1). The personnel of attendance. Whether the pupils were punctual in attendance, whether they were all physically and mentally able to perform the prescribed work of their respective grades, and if not, why they were not; whether they were well-nourished and sufficiently clothed, and whether the requirements regarding vaccination and the reporting of contagious diseases were properly enforced. (2). Environment. The condition of the school build- ings, as to light, heat, water supply, ventilation, and sanitation. In all the schools excepting that at `Barnstable village, children were found who had not complied with the vaccina- tion law. All such were referred to the local Health Officers, as coming within the range of their duty. Children. who were habitually absent through alleged sickness, or who appeared physically unable to do their school work, were also referred to the Board of Health, or to their family physicians, for investigation. The inspection in this regard was very satisfactory, however, and the town is to be con- gratulated upon the evident ability of the rising generation. 138 Several of the school buildings, however, need material changes to best serve the interests of the pupils. The more modern buildings, notably the Training School and High School at Hyannis, the High School at Cotuit, and the West Barnstable School, are excellently arranged, well-lighted and heated, and very satisfactory. On the other hand, the building at Barnstable is in poor condition, being over- crowded, poorly heated, and difficult to keep clean, the latter owing to the worn condition of the woodwork. The same deplorable condition exists to some degree at Cotuit and Osterville. At Osterville, the Grammar School is very inefficiently lighted, which is. also true of the school at Mi arstons Mills. The water supply is fairly good and con- venient, excepting that at Santuit, where the cistern is contaminated by roots and surface seepage, and should not be used as a school supply. Aside from the points enumerated, the schools are in good condition, the teachers appear to appreciate their duty to their pupils along physical and mental, as well as in- tellectual lines, and the pupils evidently eager and willing to help in the improvement of health conditions. This inspection should be made at least once in each school term. The fall inspection this year has been made with especial care and thoroughness, the appropriation being so small as to provide for no further inspection. The smallest amount which will adequately provide properly frequent inspection is not less than one hundred dollars per year, which is, in proportion to the school population, less than one-half that expended by the little town of Mashpee, and much less than the average throughout the Common- wealth. Respectfully submitted, J. HADYN HIGGINS, M. D., Medical Inspector of Barnstable Schools. Marstons Mills, Mass., December 26, 1908. 139 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BARN- STABLE HIGH SCHOOL. To MR. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: Dear Sir: Under the various headings; I have given below expres- sion to some few thoughts in re,gard to matters which are to me of great interest. I trust they may prove of interest to others. SCHOOL GROUNDS. A few months ago there was hung on one of the walls of the entrance hall of the school building a framod plan for the development of the school ,grounds. This plan is the work of Mr. Arthur Shurtleff Of Boston, who was commis- sioned by Air. James Otis of Hyannisport to look over the ,grounds and devise some scheme for their improvement. The result is the present plan which has. been approved by the committee and by all others who have'seen it for its em- inent practicality and simplicity. ' This is indeed a step in the right direction and marks out for us definite lines along which to work. A STRONGER ENGLLSH COURSE. If there is one thing, in which the pupils who come under my observation, are noticeably lacking it is in the knowl- edge of their mother tongue. They, in common with the pupils of many another school in this broad land of ours ex" hibit too ,great an ignorance re,garden- the speaking and writing of the language which to them should be the all im- portant one. As a beginning in the ri,ght direction, the teacher of Eng- lish has introduced into the second year what may be called. 140 an old-fashioned drill in English grammar. We hope it will be productive of good results. It is my wish that before many years we may have in the school an English course in which no other language than English will be required. There are come pupils who have no need of French or German, and no desire to study either language. At present they are the deadwood in the classes, the drags which hold back the others. Worse than that, their una- vailing struggles with the language often discourage them to the extent that they leave school, and their education, as far as the public school is concerned, is at an end. It is for them that I wish to make a plea for a course strengthened by omitting the study of a language which after two years of effort still remains foreign, and by giving to them a good working knowledge of their own native tongue. AFTER HIGH SCHOOL-WHAT? When that question was put to boys and girls a few years ago, the reply, in the vast majority of cases, was "I don't know-. I haven't thought much about it." When I ask that question now, there comes in answer an- " other question, "What. do you consider the best school of electrical engineering?." or "Have you a catalog of a law school?" or some request of like nature. Since the school year began in September, I have had de- mands for catalogs of schools of engineering—civil, elec- trical, mechanical, steam, and chemical engineering—of law, dentistry, architecture, music, and art. The pupils making these requests are not prompted by mere curiosity, but by the desire and determination to get on in the world in some chosen profession. During the past year we have sent our graduates to Mas- sachusetts Institute of Technology, Pratt Institute, Massa- 141 chusetts Agricultural College, Amherst College, Massachu- setts Normal Art School, Hyannis State Normal School, and Bay Path Institute. The opportunities for professional study were never greater than they are today, and this is a fact which the teachers are doing all in their power to make the pupils realize. It seems to me that neither parents nor pupils have begun to realize the educational advantages which are offered ricrht here in the village of Hyannis. PtiBLIC DAYS. Some years ago it was our custom on Friday afternoons to have exercises in which music had a prominent part. As school duties multiplied these occasions became gradually less in number until now we hold them but two or three times a year. Our audiences have however increased in size and it has been a great pleasure to have so many of the friends of the school present at these exercises. Parents and teachers have come into a closer relationship, and much good has re- sulted therefrom. Our Memorial exercises would seem in- complete without the presence of the G. A. R. and the Re- lief Corps. It is my earnest wish that more of those who have an in- terest in the school would visit us at such times. I can as- sure them of a hearty welcome.

To MR. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: It is my privilege to present herewith my first annual report. The second year of the Elizabeth Lowell High School opened with an enrollment of thirty-nine pupils, who have, as a whole, shown their appreciation of the advantages offered them in the form of a new building, additional courses, etc. New apparatus for the physical and chemical laboratories has been secured, so that now the students can perform the experimental work for themselves, and thereby equal ihe, college requirements, a thing which has before been im- possible. In addition to the apparatus added, many of the hooks formerly in use have been replaced by new and more modern texts. . By no means the least appreciated courses offered this year have been one in bookkeeping and one in penmanship. The former was open to members of the three upper classes, and of the seventeen entitled to take it twelve did so, and two others elected it, but, because of the burden of other work, were obliged to wait until another year. The course has been rather an experiment this year and was only offered during two terms. It has, however, proved so successful that another year, it is expected, bookkeeping will be given throughout the year. The penmanship class, which was open to the entire school, was elected by twenty-seven, which in itself shows their appreciation of this opportunity to take some work in the line of business practice. 149 In the report of the principal of last year, the fact that there was a lack of co-operation between the parents and teachers was noted. The teachers this year have not failed to notice the same weakness. A teacher cannot reach a pupil beyond a certain limited sphere, and outside of that sphere must have the help of the parents. When the teacher and parent are working together for the benefit of a boy or girl, results otherwise impossible may be attained. On the other hand, when the teacher is given the entire responsibility for the pupil's progress, the result can- not be as good. No teacher feels himself or herself above criticism, and few, if .any, are unwilling to receive suggestions. The teachers this year are no exceptions, and have been willing and anxious at all times to have visitors at the school. , Yet, of the thirty-seven children in school, the parents of not more than ten have come to the building to hear a reci- tation, a fact which we regret exceedingly. In order to judge wisely of what the school is doing for a boy or girl, the school should be seen from the inside. It is not enough that some neighbor or friend .has been there. Their judgment may err. Each parent should know for himself that he may be fitted to speak from having seen for himself. The child is the one whose benefit is to be con- sidered, and for whom the parent and teacher are alike interested and working. The realization of this fact and the knowledge that no deep, impassable chasm exists be- tween the parent and teacher will give greater results than can be thought possible by those who have not tried. We have given the best we had to and for the school. Perhaps our best has not been good enough, but from the inside the results seem to have been satisfactory. I wish the public to know that I appreciate the good work that has been done for the school by the supervisors of 150 drawing and of music, and the continuous efforts and admirable results attained, by my assistant. For their aid and co-operation I thank them. Respectf lly submitted, EDW. H. LEONARD. 151 ELIZABETH LOWELL SCHOOL. Number of Pupils Taking Indicated Studies.

TO MR. GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: I am glad to say just a few words through you to the School Committee and to the people of the Town of Barn- stable. We have a common interest in the Training School. On one hand your children and mine are being trained for life in this school, and on the other hand much of the pro- fessional side of the work of the Normal School centers here. We are bound to put our best thought and effort into the work of this school, for by the quality of the results obtained here we stand or fall'. It is a well-known fact that the knowledge of this work is becoming world-wide. While abroad last year I was re- peatedly asked to describe what we are trying to do here, and always my description, illustrated with photographs and specimens of the work of our children was received with enthusiasm. Noted educators often said : "That is splendid work. H3 annis must be a favored community. We would like to do such work, but we do not dare. The people are so tied down to traditions and prejudices that they would oppose such a progressive policy. You must have a very intelligent constituency." "Yes," I said, "the people of Cape Cod are, on the whole, broad-minded and intelligent. They have travelled much and they see beyond-the narrow boundaries of Cape Cod. Then, too, I think they have con- fidence and even some pride in their Normal School." As I wandered about Europe I thought more and more of this matter and now, as I gladly return to my work in your midst, it seems good to me to express my growing apprecia- tion of the intelligence and sound common sense of the people with whom my lot is cast. 154 The people of Cape Cod know that a sea captain must manage his own ship. But he must be a real sea captain. No bogus article will do. He must first have served his time before the mast. He must have gradually worked his way to the front among his fellow seamen. He must have proved his power to command their respect and obedience. Having proved himself under hard conditions his fellow citizens give him their confidence and trust to his leadership. This good sense is much in evidence at the Barnstable Town Meeting. There one hears many queer suggestions and many narrow discussions, but when any man who really understands the question under discussion speaks, he is listened to with respect. The people want the truth. And I-have always noticed that whenever any subject has been clearly and fully presented the voters of this Town settle the matter in accordance with common sense. It is not, then, surprising that, having put the Training School into the hands of experts, consisting of the teachers of the Normal School on one hand and the Superintendent of ,Schools on the other, the people of Barnstable are not in- clined to interfere with the professional side of the work. We deeply appreciate the confidence which has ever been imposed in us by the thoughtful ,people of the Town. We understand that just as the equipment required for a wireless telegraph station must seem queer to a telegraph operator who has not been in touch with modern developments in telegraphy, so many things which are common in the modern school must seem strange to one accustomed to the schools of twenty or more years ago. We all know that wherever there is progress and growth there is change. Great strides have been made in the treat- ment of disease and in the care of the human body. This is well illustrated in the treatment of a_tuberculosis patient, as shown in the recent tuberculosis exhibit. Just as great 155 strides have been made in the care and development of the mind as of the body. In other words, the profession of teaching has just as surely advanced as has that of healing. The layman may find many points to criticise in the treat- ment of an ordinary practitioner or of an ordinary teacher. But in case of an emergency like appendicitis a sensible man puts himself i❑ the hands of a specialist and says: "You are the doctor. Go ahead and do what you think is best." In much the same way you say to me: "The State Nor- mal School is an educational center established by the Commonwealth at our earnest request for the advancement of learning in our part of the State. The faculty is made up of experts elected by the State Board of Education. You should teach and practice that which is latest and best in educational methods. And this we believe that you are honestly trying to do." I need not assure you that this is just what we are doing our utmost to perform. That we are meeting with some degree of success is proved to us in many ways. I will mention three. 1. We have the approval and commendation of the Hon. George H. Martin, Secre- tary of the State Board of Education, and of Dr. John T. Prince, Agent of the State Board of Education for this part of the State. 2. We can ourselves see the improvement from year to year as we watch the children come up through the grades. 3. We are now getting students in the Nor- mal School who came up through the grades of the Training School. We, therefore, have good opportunities for compar- ing their ability to think and their attitude toward life with the same qualities in students trained in other schools. We are well pleased with the conclusions from such comparisons. Few people appreciate how much time is devoted to the consideration of the teaching of the common subjects. To such it will be surprising to know that the most of the fac- ulty meetings thus far this year have been devoted to the 0 156 teaching of arithmetic in the various grades in the Training School. These meetings occur weekly when all of the teach- ers of both schools meet for an hour of discussion. We ex- pect soon'to take up the subject of reading and language. With all of this discussion and effort we can accomplish little without your continued confidence and cooperation. The schools of Massachusetts have been among the best and have done a great work. If this leadership work is to be continued education must change to conform to the changing conditions. May we not all subscribe to the wise words of that great modern statesman, Governor Hughes, "It is not really in the finest efforts of the best educated talent that we find the truest test of our civilization. It is in the manner in which the ordinary functions of government are discharged in connection with the ordinary activities of life. We boast justly of our wonderful opportunities for ed- ucation, and I suppose there never has been a time when we have had greater reason for pride than to-day in the oppor- tunities that are afforded to our youth, of whatever degree of fortune, to obtain a reasonable education. We find in our educational work a great opportunity for advancement. We should make our elementary courses of such a character that the ordinary student would see that the entire course was worth while. We must realize that to bring our young men and our young women into proper op- portunities for usefulness is an appropriate branch of our ed- ucational equipment. We have only begun the development of our common schools, and this is but one phase of our ac- tivity." Very respectfully, W. A. BALDWIN. 0 157 REPORT OF THE COMMERCIAL INSTRUCTOR. To Mx. G. H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: In the past two years I have indicated in my reports the work done in the commercial department, and have also made what I considered some just criticisms. There has been little change in the course as covered in these reports,and to a great extent the same criticisms hold true. It is a fact, however, that there has been manifested by the pupils a steadily increasing interest in this work, and in some cases a desire has been aroused in the pupil to reach out and grasp his opportunity, the opportunity that a business career offers to ambitious young men and women. It is the sincere be- lief of the writer that the commercial course in the country high schools has done much toward solving_this problem: What shall we do with our boys and girls who have neither the inclination or means to go to college or to continue their studies at normal and scientific schools, and to whom the se- rious question of earning a livelihood often presents itself upon graduation? What can we teach them in the schools to give them the best trainin(y for life? To the pupil of limited mental capacity, if he be a worker, the commercial course offers a preparation for earning a com- fortable living, to the pupil of marked intellectual ability it offers far more.. To the shirkers and loafers the commercial work is and always must be distasteful, because, as a large part of the work is purely mechanical, slovenliness and inac- curacy are more glaringly apparent than in other subjects. Superintendent Wallace F. Mason, North Andover,Masga- ebusetts, says : "I believe that the commercial studies give as valuable a training for citizenship as the so-called human- istic studies, and.better training for accuracy and judgment." The class of 1908 was the first class graduated from the 158 High School which had taken the full four years' commercial course. Six pupils were graduated from the shorthand de- partment. Of these, two are occupying business positions, one is taking a post graduate course, and one entered Bay Path Institute in September that she might prepare to be a commercial teacher. It is gratifying to note that a large amount of the work done in this school was accepted as an equivalent for work which entering classes are usually re- quired to take at Bay Path Institute. 1Ve do not claim that our commercial course is perfect, or that it ranks with those of city high schools. We do claim that it compares well with other schools of the same size, and that each year we succeed in getting more thorough and ac- curate work. We look forward to the time when the course may be somewhat extended, when corporation bookkeeping and banking may be added, and larger facilities afforded for business practice. A cordial invitation is extended to the business men of the town to visit the commercial department and judge for them- selves of the practical value of the work done here. Any suggestions or criticisms will be gratefully received by the instructor. Respectfully submitted, GEORGIA M. SIMONS, Commercial Instructor. 159 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING. To MR. GEORGR H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: The year's work in drawing has been carried out along the lines suggested in my last report. A fair share of time has been secured for the Elizabeth Lowell schools and longer periods for the other Cotuit schools. This was made possible by the closing of the Plains school and by alternating the visits of the supervisors of music and drawing at Santuit and Marstons Mills. These schools arb also benefited by the change because each super- visor has now the undivided attention of the pupils and teacher for an hour, while heretofore both tried to teach at the same time for about forty-five minutes. We take pride in calling attention to the name "Elizabeth Lowell School" on the Cotuit high school building. This was made from the drawing of a member of the last gradu- ating class. Through Miss Tuttle's efforts, competitive drawings for this purpose were made by the freehand class and the best holds this place of honor. A few of the older boys in this school did some creditable wood-work, of which the bulletin board is an example. They brought their own tools and worked at a bench kindly loaned for their use. A manual training bench with a complete outfit of tools has just been placed in the unfinished office, which is to be our workshop for the present. Our first work will be the mak- ing of some articles needed by the school. Working draw- ings of these will be made in the mechanical drawing classes, and only reliable boys will be given the privilege of working out these problems at the bench. Similar work is to be undertaken at the Barnstable high school. A bench has been installed in the basement, which is dry and well lighted, afbrding ample space for the 160 introduction of manual training. While the way is not yet clear for systematic instruction, we believe that much that is worth while may be accomplished by using the resources at our command. The short time allowed for drawing in our high schools, one period per week, limits the results, but the spirit of the pupils makes this work most promising and enjoyable. Some find time for additional practice and all are working earnestly. The young men who go from us to technical schools realize the value of a strong course in mechanical drawing, and in the development of such a course lies one of the finest possibilities of this school. The request for manual training at Barnstable village, made last winter, was granted. The boys, under the direc- tion of their principal, Mr. Doty, built a bench in the rear of the school room. They brought their own tools and such stock as they could find at home, and have made window boxes, drawing boards and a variety of boxes from their own plans. This work was done during drawing periods un- der Mr. Doty's direction. If it is to be systematized and con- tinued, a few essential tools are needed for general use, a gage, try square and good knife for each boy,and thin stock for be- ginners. The girls begged to sew while the boys worked at the bench. Accordingly a little plain sewing was attempted, simple patterns adapted to darned embroidery and outline stitch were also made and used. The inspiration and guid- ance in this handiwork for girls can properly be given in school and the needlework itself chiefly done at home. At West Barnstable, a part of the drawing time in Mr. Perrin's class has been well spent in bent iron work. The pupils made the designs from which they worked, and they have learned that a design must meet the limitations of the material used, also that good construction depends on good drawing. Better freehand drawings seem to us to follow this mechanical work, The December drawing lessons called for the making or decoration of articles suitable for Christmas gitts. In every school teachers and pupils worked with hearty good will and the results obtained showed a marked gain when compared with those of last year. Throughout the year stress has been laid upon drawing. By this I mean that we are constantly striving to lead our pupils to observe closely and express truthfully what they have seen, to study the proportion and shape of objects, to ' put life into their nature drawing by seeing the character- ` istics and growth of each twig and spray. The need of such drawing has been forcibly impressed upon every drawing .teacher in the United States by the conclusions reported to us from the exhibition of the International Art Congress, held in London last August. Our exhibition prepared for this Congress, consisting of representative work from sixty towns and cities of this country, was shown in New York last May. Mr. Henry T. Bailey, in reviewing thin New York exhibi- tion, said of the drawings submitted to the committee, "Throughout the thousands of sheets scarcely one could be found with any DRAWING in it." After the Congress, in a September editorial, be states, "A careful study of the exhi- bitions at the London Congress confirms me in the position set forth in June on the need, in America, of more serious delineation." A supervisor writes : "But one fact stood prominently as food for the American supervisor. Those children in Europe are learning to draw." A prominent educator of New York characterizes our work at the Congress as marked by "our national short- comings of indifferent technique and a certain straining for effect and uncertain drawing." The comment of a competent Englishman is that while in idea and ideals the United States work is fine, we need 162 more carefulness, more exactness, more thoroughness. "In short, more drawing." Taking these conditions to heart, let us labor with all our might to teach our boys and girls to draw. The hearty co-operation of the grade teachers,their readi- ness to do all in their power to carry out our plans, the courtesy and assistance of the high school teachers and the excellent spirit of the pupils, make this a town in which ideals ought to be realized. Respectfully submitted, I.UELLA FAY MAYNARD. 163 REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC. TO MR. GEORGE H. GALGER, Superintendent of Schools: In this report I would say first of all, that in almost every school in town a decided improvement has been seen in the music during the last month. This improvement is largely due to strenuous and unceasing labor on the part of the teachers, and I thank them sincerely for their hearty co- operation. I have endeavored during the five months that I have been at work here to follow as closely as possible the schedule of graded schools, thus taking as many grades separately as possible, and giving them the work adapted to each separate grade. For to attempt to instruct children in the first four or five grades in one class in music seems to me as useless as it would be to adopt the same method in reading or any other lesson—unless, perhaps, all that is desired is to teach songs by rote, which of course is not the case. In all excepting the first grades we have been making a careful and thorough review of the technical work that has been or should have been accomplished during the preceding years, which course has been fully repaid by the renewed vigor and intelligence with which most of the boys and girls have attacked their music, especially in the sight-reading. In some of the schools more time has to be devoted to the production and quality of tones than in others, all of which depends entirely upon the musical ability of the children, which, of course,.modifies to a large extent the rapidity with which children learn to read music. For, if not naturally musical, time spent in the correct placing of tones delays other progress for a while, but is the only safe course to fol- low, as nothing can be satisfactorily accomplished without a good, solid foundation upon which to work. 164 Each grade has comparatively little technical work to do in music, yet enough so that if done properly, children in the first grade should read at sight and absolutely correctly, moderately difficult exercises; so that children in the fourth grade should read at sight two-part songs, which, I am sorry to say, would not be done well now in our grammar grades; and so that boys and girls graduating from the ninth grade should read at sight easily and accurately difficult three and four-part music, as well as have an intelligent knowledge of the fundamental principles of music, and it is toward this ideal state of affairs that we are earnestly working. As for the High. Schools, the chorus work has not pro- gressed as rapidly in the past five months as I hope it will in the next five, for I feel sure that nearly every scholar has a loyal interest and pride in the music of his particular school, and it is only by enthusiasm such as is roused by real, intense interest and good hard work that we can ever make the music here in Barnstable what it ought to be. In closing, I would say that I wish that every person in this town might realize of what great importance the music ought to be here in our schools. For in music children use all their faculties, the like of which is not exceeded in any other study, and in turn it has its intellectual, cultural, -,es- thetic and physical influences upon each and every pupil.
