Slade of the High #chool has completed his annual re- port of the school work and last night filed it with the school board. Refer- enee is made to the congested con- dition of the school under present gonditions, the membership having n forty-one per cent. since 1918. _ With the incr 'd _school facilities which ‘will soon be pos- sessed, Principal Slade expresses the hope that full day sessions will again rule in place of the double system made necessary owing to the congest- , ¢4 condition./ The full text of the tl%l; follows: g e High school congestion hag ‘U_u@mq acute, but inasmuch as relief is so very near I shall dwell upon the present crowded condition only long enough to suggest that steps he taken early to prevent a'recurrence nf our troubles and the resulting inef- ficlency. Since September, 1913, our membership has increased forty-one cent. For two years we have di- vided the privileges of a school day between two schools, Last year and the year before we had in each ses- sion some vacant rooms, by which we were enabled to add to each half day’'s program some. s 1 work in the other sepsion.” Now our membership of 1,140 is about equally divided be- tween two schools; we have no vacant _ fooms.

That much better results will be obtained in an all day hool is my’ firm conviction. If the Public achool is to accomplish its pur- Pose, it must for the whole day be the thief concern of its members. Under the half day plan, it may be—and in & minority of cases is—under the all fay plan, it must be the chief con- “With the larger opportunities which are ‘soon to be ours, I have “recommended ‘the introduction of MMC ‘periods with supervised study. ler’ our present conditions, a close jonal relation with the teacher is 1t of attainment, with the new nent it should become char- of the school, consent of the teachers’ in college examinations the committee we have introduced tenta- tively an organization by departments. Upon certain teachers has been placed the responsibility of co-ordinating the four years work in each of the de- partments. Only thus ean a large school with a rapid changing faculty maintain definiteness of instruction, an intelligent handling of pupils, fair- ness of classification, and withal - a creditable progress as an, educational institution. College Examinations. “During the past two years a num- ber of our pupils have failed to show attain- ments for which we have given them credit. Some who have failed we could not have recommended for col- lege work; others we should have been glad to recommend ;and we were still ready to be responsible for their future, even after their failures. We have been forced to the conclusion ‘hat with the entire absence of regu- jar written examinations during: the high school course our candidates for college have found that in the long examinations for admission they were confronted by something very strange. Tq meet the need we have introduced regular midyear and fipal examina- tions for the general college prepara- tory and college technical courses and unannounced monthly written tests for all coures in which they are prac- ticable, As & result we expect our young men and young women to give better evidence of their training. “Our commercial department con- tinues to maintain a high standard. Qur graduates of June have practical- | 1y all been placed. From those who complete the course we get very good reports. The failures are usually of ‘who have left school at the end or two years. One of ouri est needs is a physical director for the young men. Only such as join the squads for football, basketball and baseball receive ony attention. For these with the net proceeds of the games, our athletic council employs a coech. Dr. Zwick is serving well in this capacity. But for the majority of our young men we are doing noth- ing. With the coming of larger quar- ters and a normal school day, ample provision should be made for the buflding of sound bodies, the all es- sential hasis for any normal training of intellect and morals. Service League Proposed. “The advance of your high school I would have you measure by the evi- dence you get of a spirit of service, service to the school, to the commun- ity and to humanity. To foster such & spirit we purpose in the near future to organize a service league. In preparation for this we have intro- duced a system by which pupils may volunteer their services for adminis- trative work and for definite meas- ures of school and community better- ment, and with it a system by which such services may be recognized and recorded. This information will be made ‘a part of the permanent rec- ords of the school. Not what they may ®et here, but what they can give now and how best they may here prepare themselves to give In the future, are the questions we emphasize, “This same spirit of - service we would have characteristic of our teachers. It is absolutely essential to success in the profession, Among my assistants I find it constantly present. Those who have been with us before preserve it; those who are with us for the first time all manifest it. Mr. Moody sets an example of untiring service and devotion. “For your cordial support and sym« pathetic critiglsm I offer my genuine thanks. The assurance that I may count upon this best of help gives me fresh courage to enter upon another.” Professor Mathews’ Report. Professor George B. Mathews, in- structor of music in the public schools ,in his annual report also filed last night says: ‘“The object of public school music is not to train i artists or to give the few gifted ones ' & speecial education. It is for the benefit. of all and is needed by all as a maiter of general training. In this generation, knowjedge of the fundamentals of music and ability to | read at least simple music are.con- sidered necessary to every educated or cultured person, “Practically all our boys and girls are capable of being benefitted by a study of music. To sing difficult music at sight, they must think in- stantly of the syllable, name, pitch, and tone value of every note- Sight eginging requires concentration, care- ful reasoning, accurate thinking and where individual recitations are con- ducted self-control is another thing acquired through the study of music.” f f l Professor Mathews expressed regret | “one great aim of th‘e past year has that owing to the double session now being followed at the High school no vonvenient time for rehearsal can be found and on this account the school orchestra has been discontinued. The Grammar school orchestra carried nn its work as usual through the year, Penmanship in Schools. Reporting on her work an instruc- tor in penmanship in the public schools, Miss Elizabeth T.

The letter forms are then carefully studied and the mental pictures formed d that by the time the child has reach- .|ed the fifth grade, he has acquired some of the forearm movements, Stress has been placed in the lower grades upon the position of the body and also upon correct pen holding: In the third grade ink is used for the first time. In the upper grades where the movement work has been faith- fully followed and mastered, the time required for written lessons in spoll- ing, composition, examinations, and other written work has been materia!- ly reduced.” Study of Manual Art Joseph Wiseltier, director of manual arts in the public schools, in his annual report to the school su- perintendent, speaks with pleasure of the improvement in the art pro- duct of teachers and pupils- He says: “The education of the whole people for appreciation can best be accom- plished in the public school teacher by proper supervision. It is the aim of the supervisors to equip the teach~ er not only with the subject matter of the art work she is required to teach but also with the best methods to secure results. Each teacher is supplied with a booklet containing ‘General Art Notes, monthly outlines for her grade and for the preced’hx and following grades in order that she may see the relationship of her own work to that which has been taught previously and that which wil) be followed the next year.
