The bridge at the cove is completed and accepted by the Selectmen after being approved by our Engineer. We will call your attention to the new signboards erected in the Town which do not complete the number needed. We trust they have met with your approval and that you will make a similar appropriation as last year.Eventually we will have the Town fitted up with up-to-date signboards. The road in Hull Street has no't been completed.We do not know when the Town will be called upon to pay its share of the cost. The widening and reconstruction of North Main Street is nearly completed.The Town's liability will be nine hundred sixty-five dollars ($965),award being made by the Selectmen on account of land damages.

HARRY F.TILDEN, Collector of Taxes. 150 REPORT OF SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES To the Board of Selectmen. Gentlemen:Your Sealer in submitting his annual report would respectfully state that during the year,five hundred and seventy-one weighing or measuring appHances have been sealed,one hundred and six adjusted and seven condemned. In addition to this,inspections,tests and reweighings have been made as usual. The fees derived from the sealing operations,aggregating fifty-five dollars and fifteen cents,have been paid to the Treasurer as required under existing statutes covering these charges.The steady increase in the number of automobiles, with the changes and additions in the automatic devices for supplying them with oil and gasoline is an added expense and burden to the department each year,which,unfortimately, is reflected neither in its appropriation nor the compensation of the sealer,and it would seem that in the near future a more liberal appropriation is not only necessary but justified. In speaking of the various measures it may not be amiss to refer for a moment to that venerable measurer of time known to us all as the "Old Town Clock."This worthy measurer,as you are aware,owing to a break in the mechanism controlling the heavy striking weight,was badly damaged and the striking portion practically destroyed.Fortunately the timing machinery was uninjured and while the accident is responsible for an expenditure of between two hundred and three hundred dollars, it is an expenditure which I am certain none of us will begrudge. Notwithstanding its almost unbroken period of labor up to this time for over sixty years the Howard clock expert pays a fine tribute to its quality,workmanship and accuracy. It might seem that the old clock almost feels the necessity of living up to its reputation for it certainly runs within a circle of variation which I am assured but few clocks even of the present day can excel. Respectfully, CALEB NICHOLS, Sealer. 151 REPORT OF TREE WARDEN To the Citizens of Cohasset: As your Tree Warden for the year 1925 I submit the follow- ing report: The shade trees of the Town are in very good shape as I have been through each district cutting out the dead limbs and trimming all branches that hang in such a way that they would endanger the public safety.A few of the large elms and ashes had to be cut down because of their rotting on the inside, which would in time cause many large limbs to drop off. In conclusion I wish to thank the citizens for their hearty cooperation in this Department. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE YOUNG. 152 REPORT OF THE MOTH SUPERINTENDENT To the Board of Selectmen: As Moth Superintendent for the year 1925 I submit the following report : During the spring season all shade trees bordering the high- ways,which showed signs of leaf -eating insects were sprayed with proper solution.In some parts of the Town I found that the gypsy moth seems to be gaining to some extent,therefore requiring much more time in painting with creosote. The underbrush on the sides of the roads has been mowed out and burnt,thereby eliminating that menace,as the gypsies pick this sort of brush in which to lay their eggs.Because of the taking by the Town of Lamberts Lane it was necessary to cut the brush,etc.,from the sides of this street. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE YOUNG. Wheelwright Park To the Board of Selectmen: As Superintendent of Wheelwright Park I report as follows : During the year 1925 the brush and dead limbs have all been cleaned out.The roadway has been put in fairly decent shape.I think the road is as it should be,—that is,a bridle path through the Park.I would suggest that groups of spruce and hemlock be planted along the path as recommended by the Department of Forestry of Massachusetts. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE YOUNG 153 REPORT OF THE OVERSEERS OF THE POOR The Overseers of the Poor have had the customary details of this Department to care for,but their work has been simphfied by the pronounced executive abiHty and loyalty to the town's interests of the new warden and matron at the Cohasset Home,Mr.and Mrs.Elmer J.Louie.Their broad sympathy and thorough understanding of their duties,based on long and practical experience in such work,has proved of the greatest value to the Overseers and the town is to be congratulated on securing the services of this very efficient couple. During the past year the Home has received the careful attention and inspection of the chief and officials of the fire department with a view to the prevention of any possible fire hazard therein.New and dependable hose has been installed on all floors and in halls equipped with water stand- pipe.The electric lighting system has been thoroughly gone over by the inspector of wires and everything possible has been done to insure not only the safety but the comfort of the people residing there. The members of the George H.Mealy Post No.118,American Legion,at Christmas time,as has been their custom for a number of years past,presented the people living in the Home with presents of a useful and practical character,thereby living up to the time-honored adage **The bravest are the tenderest," and earning for themselves the devoted thanks of the afflicted and sick. The driveway to the Home has been treated to a tar and gravel coating which not only improves the appearance of the approach but also guarantees its retention in place and durability for a long time. It may and undoubtedly will interest the citizens of Cohasset to learn that our town Home is considered by the State authorities superior to any other institution of its kind in the 154 Commonwealth and that the Federal Inspector has commended it most highly. Comparative cost of the poor in Cohasset for the years 1924 and 1925 follows: Cohasset Home: Year Total Expense Receipts Net Cost 1924 $9,330.80 $2,204.75 $7,126.05 1925 6,952.90 1,123.06 5,829.84 Outside Poor: Year Total Expense Receipts Net Cost 1924 $4,802.33 $1,026.42 $3,775.91 1925 3,930.81 1,635.31 2,295.50 HARRY S.PARKER,Chairman HERBERT L.BROWN, DARIUS W.GILBERT, Overseers of the Poor. 155 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH The following cases of infectious and contagious disease were reported to this Board during the past year. Measles 23 Whooping cough 13 Scarlet fever 1 Chicken pox 5 Influenza 2 Pneumonia (lobar)1 Tuberculosis 2 The usual number of complaints have been received and investigated. The Inspector of Slaughtering inspected fourteen (14) carcasses during the past year,none of which were condemned. The report from the School Dentist following shows the way the work at the Dental Clinic in the Osgood School is carried on. 156 Report of School Dentist Town of Cohasset,Mass.,Board of Health: It gives me pleasure to submit to you the following report of work being done at the School Dental Clinic.All children are examined at the beginning of the school year,and the condition of the mouth and teeth carefully noted. Children entering school for the first time are given cards to be signed by the parents stating that they will have the necessary dental work done either by the School Dentist or their family dentist.These cards are returned and kept on file at the Clinic. The children who are to have their work done at the School Clinic are taken by grades.Beginning with the fourth grade and continuing in that grade until all work has been com- pleted.Then the third,second,first,fifth,sixth,seventh and eighth grades are taken in the order mentioned. High school pupils are not called to the Clinic,but are privileged to come providing each has had a card properly signed by his or her parent. The method of securing children is to have two from one grade report for treatment.When finished,the first child returns to his or her grade and another child is sent.In the meantime work has been done for the second child,who returning to school sends another,and so on until the close of the day,and until all children in that grade have been cared for. This system interferes least with their school work.A careful and complete record is kept of the work done for each child. The work consists of both preventative and reparative work. The preventative work includes cleansings and treating teeth with silver nitrate and formalin. The reparative work consists of silver,cement,enamel and gutta-percha fillings. Treatments and root canal fillings and extractions with a local anesthetic. While work is being done the children are carefully instructed in the care of the mouth,and the proper use of the tooth brush. 157 During the year books of instruction on "Mouth Hygiene " were distributed throughout the school. Tooth brushes could be procured from the Public Health Nurse.Tooth powder can be obtained at the Clinic. If the mouth is kept clean,and the teeth free from decay it means for the child good health and an active mind. Respectfully, Frank A.Derby,D.M.D. Respectfully, IRVING F.SYLVESTER,Chairman, EDWARD L.HIGGINS,Secretary, ABRAHAM ENOS. 158 REPORT OF COLLECTOR OF SAMPLES OF MILK AND VINEGAR To the Cokasset Board of Health: Again it gives me great pleasure to report on the condition of our milk and vinegar supply.Of the numerous samples of milk and vinegar taken only one was slightly low in butter fat, two in solids;and only one slightly high in bacteria.On the whole this is a most excellent report from our chemist.All samples of vinegar were up to standard.Our milk dealers are to be commended. Yours truly, ..IRVING F.SYLVESTER, Collector of Samples of Milk and Vinegar. 159 REPORT OF HARBOR MASTERS To the Honorable Board of Selectmen. Gentlemen:As your Harbor Masters for the past year of 1925 we beg to submit the following report : It was necessary to do a great deal of repairing on the floats and runs.The floor and timbers are in very bad condition now and will have to be repaired considerably before they are used again. The floats are so water soaked that it is necessary to put barrels under the floors. We respectfully recommend that the sum of seven hundred dollars (1700)be raised and appropriated for the maintenance of the harbor and the salaries of the Harbor Masters. Very respectfully, JOHN J.GRASSIE, Harbor Master. JOSEPH G.ENOS, Assistant Harbor Master. January 20,1925. 160 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF FIRE ENGINEERS To the Board of Selectmen. Gentlemen:The Board of Engineers appointed by j^our Honorable Board for the year ending April 30,1926,met in accordance with your instruction on May 1,1925,with the following choice of officers. Chief,Frank F.Martin,Jr. Assistant Chief,Abraham J.Antoine,Sr. District Chief,George F.Sargent,Jr. District Chief,Reginald R.Beal. Clerk,Joseph L.Oliver. During the year the department responded to seventy-seven alarms;sixty-six box and eleven still,as follows: House 9 Chimney 6 Barn 2 Garage 2 Automobile 3 Dairy 1 Grass 37 Factory 1 Club house 1 Rubbish 2 Telephone pole 1 False 12 This does not include eighty-one grass fires taken care of by the Forest Fire Department. The assessed value of property involved was $128,125, and the estimated loss was $10,225. Engine I answered sixty-five alanns;Ladder I,forty; Combination 2,twelve;and Engine 2,twenty. During the year a new pump was purchased and installed 161 at the North Cohasset Station to take the place of the Combi- nation which had outHved its usefulness and was found to be unsafe to drive.Additional equipment is needed at the station. The ladders on the ladder truck at the Central Station are unsafe and will have to be replaced with the exception of the 50-foot extension ladder.These were bought and have been in use since March 1894.At a recent house fire one of the ladders broke while two men were on it fighting the fire. Outlay on the fire alarm system amounted to $2,525.37. This included the purchase of eight miles of wire and crossarms and labor on installing the same.It was necessary to spend a large sum of money for labor cutting away overhanging limbs which were continually putting the system out of order,which is an annual expense.Considerable expense was incurred for repairs to our fire alarm boxes and fuses in the Central Station, which was caused by electric light wires falling on our wires during wind and rain storms.As we are only a passenger on these poles it is necessary for us to have our wires under those of the Electric Light Company. Location boxes were mapped out and cards for these will be distributed to each house as soon as possible. The Central Station is in need of painting and shingling. North Cohasset Station will have to have repairs done to the roof,as this roof is covered with paper which will have to be replaced.This building also houses the North Cohasset Post Office.

As Wire Inspector I hereby submit my annual report for the year ending 1925. My work and duties have been practically the same as in previous years and have been accomplished to the apparent satisfaction of all concerned.The objective for which this department is striving,is to reduce to a minimum all danger of fire,and injury to property or life.To attain this end all precautions have been taken and a strict compliance with the provisions of the National Board of Fire Underwriters has been required. The electric light and power company has done consider- able new construction work which has been inspected,and in all cases,I have found that the work has been accomplished in a very satisfactory manner. As in the past the telephone and fire alarm systems have been gone over,so that service from either source would not be interrupted or delayed. Within the past few years there have been many new inven- tions created for the comfort and convenience of all those to whom electricity is available,and lately their use has been constantly increasing,thus making it imperative that the installation of these electrical appliances be given careful consideration.Therefore,realizing its importance,I have devoted part of my time to this work. In this work as in all enterprises where the public welfare is at stake,the cooperation of the public is earnestly solicited in order to safeguard the interests of the people.Therefore it would be appreciated,both by the aforesaid electrical com- panies and this department,if every person in the town would take it upon himself or herself:first,to avoid coming into contact with any loose or broken electric wires that they might 165 discover;second,to inform others in the near vicinity of the danger;third,-to report the defective condition of those wires, or of any wiring in a bmlding that has become unsafe through use or age,to either the electric light and powxr company or the telephone company,as the case may be,or to inform this department,in which case it will be given prompt attention. Having no doubt that the public will heartily cooperate in this matter,I wish to thank you all in behalf of this depart- ment for yoiur assistance. Respectfully submitted, S.CHESTER PRATT. 166 REPORT OF FOREST WARDEN To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: In submitting my report to you as Forest Warden for the year 1925 you will note upon looking up the records that our appropriation was run over about half as much as the original appropriation.This was due to the fact that the season of 1925 was a very dry season,and I am told by other wardens in differ- ent parts of the State,that their original appropriations were very largely overrun also.As the retiring warden,I would recommend that the Town appropriate the sum of $1,350, $1,200 of this sum to be used in fighting grass fires and the balance in new equipment. Before closing I wish to extend my hearty thanks to the citizens of Cohasset who always respond to these seemingly small affairs,which might have been of a very serious nature if not for the promptness of the deputies and people who always fight these fires at any time of the night and day. Respectfully submitted, ALFRED M.SILVIA, Forest Warden for 1925. 167 COHASSET FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY In Account with Oliver H.Howe,Treasurer Dr. To Payments in 1925 For Books Support of Paul Pratt Memorial Library Insurance Treasurer's Bond Rent of Safe Deposit Box Stationery and Postage Balance on Deposit January 1,1926: Weymouth Savings Bank New England Trust Co $451.47 418.13 98.46 12.50 5.00 1.00 110.83 308.44 $1,405.83 Cr.

Cohasset,January 5,1926. 169 REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE PAUL PRATT MEMORIAL LIBRARY The Directors of the Paul Pratt Memorial Library herewith submit their report for the year ending December 31,1925. The Directors regret to report the resignation of Miss Marian E.Decker who has so acceptably filled the position of Librarian for the past two years. Miss Decker's interest in the library has been exhibited during her term of service in many ways,not the least of which has been a complete re-registration of the list of users of the library and a re-classification of the books in the library accord- ing to the latest standards.This has resulted in the removal from the shelves of a number of obsolete and wornout volumes, leaving the stacks in more convenient condition for the recep- tion of books as added. The home circulation of the library continues to increase, and the opening of the reading rooms on every week-day evening seems to be appreciated by the many users. Subjoined are the reports of the Treasurer and Librarian, showing in detail the condition and use of the library.

Gentlemen:My report as Superintendent of Streets for the past year is as follows : The real work started on the roads after the frost was out of the ground.Many parts of streets in different sections of the Town had to be scarified and resurfaced and much K.P. patching material required.The steam roller was used to great advantage here under the handling of a competent engineer. All the streets,excepting Jerusalem Road west of Forest Avenue,were covered with Tarvia B,with screened gravel from the Cohasset gravel bank,and rolled.This is a new method of covering the tar and has proved a great success. Smith Place and the sidewalk on Spring Street were con- structed under the special appropriation and according to instructions received. The work on James Lane is not quite finished owing to the early freezing of the ground. Norfolk Road has been rebuilt following the civil engineer's plans.A complete drainage system was installed with eleven hundred feet of eight-and ten-inch pipe and eleven catch basins. From the easterly side of Jerusalem Road to the Scituate line on Border Street,all fences were repaired and painted, also the fences on South Main Street to Beechwood Street. I wish at this time to thank you and the citizens of Cohasset for the cooperation and courtesy extended me. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE JASON, Superintendent of Streets. 175 COST OF HIGHWAYS 1925,BY •Tarvia Name of Street Gallons Atlantic Avenue 6,000 Ash Street 300 Beach Street 1,250 Beachwood Street 5,000 Border Street 1,400 Bow Street 500 Cedar Street 300 Church Street 200 Cushing Road 400 Dover Street 1,000 Elm Street and sidewalk 800 Forest Avenue 2,000 Green Street Jerusalem Road 4,000 Joy Place King Street 2,000 North Street,and sidewalk ...1,200 South Main Street and side- walk 700 Margin Street 700 Nichols Avenue 500 Norfolk Road and sidewalk...3,000 Oak Street Parker Avenue 300 Pleasant Street Pond Street 1,500 Spring Street 200 Ripley Road 600 Short Street,sidewalk 200 Sohier Street 800 Stockbridge Street 300 Summer Street and sidewalk ..600 Snow Place 200 36,950 925,BY STREETS Supplies Amount Labor,Teams at 14 c.and Trucks Totals $840 $1,150 $1,990 42 168 210 175 215 390 700 1,170 1,870 196 334 530 70 230 300 42 218 260 28 60 88 56 516 572 140 1,010 1,150 112 348 460 280 310 590 ..40 40 560 525 1,085 35 35 280 310 590 168 280 448 98 509 507 98 157 255 70 67 137 420 7,860 8,280 140 130 42 48 90 80 80 210 240 450 28 200 .228 84 109 198 28 183 211 112 300 412 42 68 110 84 130 214 28 58 86 $5,175 $18,058 $23,231 176 JURY LIST Jujly 30,1925 Name and Occupation Street Ahearn,Austin L.,garage owner South Main Allen,Frank C,leather merchant South Main Ayres,Samuel L.,cotton broker Jerusalem Road Antoine,Abraham J.,Jr.,plimiber Elm Bates,Eller}^C,farmer Beechwood Bosworth,Merton L.,electrician Gushing Road Bowser,Roscoe A.,naval ordnance North Main Browne,Minot A.,clerk James Lane Burdick,William W.,railroad employee Summer Baker,Benedict J.,wool merchant Jerusalem Road Bates,Edwin P.,laborer Beechwood Bates,Gorham L.,farmer North Main Bates,Howard,farmer Beechwood Bates,Lot Elmer,truckman Brook Bigelow,Arthur G.,retired Black Horse Lane Churchill,Gilman Summer Gousens,Harold B.,sailmaker Summer Enos,Joseph G.,clerk Summer Hyland,E.Glayton,carpenter James Lane James,Dean K.,merchant North Main Mulvey,Edward A.,insurance Pond Petersen,August F.B.,real estate agent Sohier Skolfield,Sydney K.,U.S.Veterans'Bureau Sohier Stevens,Robert K.G.,salesman Beechwood Studley ,Arthur,railroad crossing tender Hull Tower,Burgess G.,insurance agent..Ripley Road Towle,Odin,salesman Border Vogel,Augustus H.,Jr.,salesman Forest Avenue Wilson,Gharles,laborer South Main Young,George,superintendent Hull ANNUAL REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE OF THE TOWN OF COHASSET MASSACHUSETTS For the Year Ending December 31,1925 THE BOUNDBROOK PRESS 1926 SCHOOL COMMITTEE Dean K.James Term expires 1928 Everett W.Gammons Term expires 1928 Fred V.Stanley Term expires 1926 Anselm L.Beal Term expires 1926 Helen A.Scriptiire Term expires 1927 Manuel A.Grassie Term expires 1927 Organization Fred V.Stanley Chairman .

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE The report of the School Committee for the year 1925 with the financial statement of the treasurer is herewith submitted to the Town.It is accompanied by the fuller reports of the superintendent of schools,principal of the high school and supervisors of departmental work. The appropriation for the support of schools for 1925 was $63,350.The expenditures amounted to $59,305.12.The committee had the unusual experience of turning back to the town treasury at the end of the year an unexpended balance of $4,044.88.The committee did not engage an extra grade teacher as planned,the coal was purchased at an exceptionally low figure and a saving was made in several other itercis,there- fore this balance was made possible. There was paid into the town treasury in 1925 from the State School Fund,from the State Vocational Education Fund, from the lunch receipts,from the dog tax and from other sources,$8,062.32.The net cost of the schools to the taxpayers of the Town was,therefore,$51,242.80.A similar amount will be received from the above sources during 1926,reducing the amount to be raised by tax levy by that sum. The budget for 1926 is $4,000 larger than last year.The larger part of this increase is for the changes in the Osgood School building which will be necessary after the new school building is built.The domestic science department with work room and lunch room will be moved into the Osgood School building,necessitating changes and new equipment.This will save the pupils the inconvenience of moving from building to building,eliminate much of the danger at the street crossing, and be good economy as it will save the upkeep of the Bates Building which is relatively high.This change together with chairs for the third floor assembly room and larger desks to take the place of the lower grade desks will cost approximately $3,700. By moving the domestic science work and lunch room into the Osgood School building,and by using the former G.A.R. building for the Manual Arts Department,one janitor can do the work and the other janitor can be-transferred to the new school building.Thus there will be no increased cost for janitor service. Transportation will cost more this year.The committee has already arranged for one bus to make an extra trip each day to take care of the increased number of pupils from North Cohasset.Another extra trip may be necessary beginning next fall,to convey pupils from the Cove section to the new school building.Eventually,the committee may be obliged to secure an extra bus,or change to larger busses,with a corresponding increase in the cost of transportation. The committee has listened to numerous inquiries and complaints during the past year relative to the age limit of pupils for entrance to the first grade.After the establishment of a kindergarten some years ago,the committee adopted the following rule which is still in force:"Any child six years of age or whose sixth birthday occurs not later than November first shall be admitted into the first grade;and any child five years of age may be admitted at the discretion of the superin- tendent.Mr.Collins has interpreted the second part of this rule so that children whose sixth birthday comes later than November first may do their work at home,and when they reach their sixth birthday,on giving satisfactory evidence that they are qualified to do first grade work,are then admitted. Three-fourths of the towns of our size in Massachusetts have similar rules,limiting the age of entrance to five years and eight months,or over.Towns having a lower age limit almost without exception have no kindergarten.A study of several towns with an entrance age of five years and six months and no kinder- garten shows that about one-third of the pupils are obliged to remain two years in the first grade.In Cohasset,the number who stay in the first grade is very much smaller. The committee is contemplating a change in the school hours at the Osgood School building beginning next September if it meets with the general approval of parents and pupils. The Osgood School will have what is known as "one session," the hours being from 8.30 a.m.to 1.30 p.m.,with twenty minutes out for lunch.The hours for the new school building will be practically the same as those now in force in the lower grades. The committee is well satisfied with the work of the schools under the able management of Superintendent Collins and his fine corps of teachers.The results have been surprisingly gratifying when we consider how handicapped have been both teachers and pupils by the crowded conditions under which they have worked,conditions which,happily,will be remedied next September when the new school building will be ready for occupancy.

Resignations and Elections Miss Victoria 0.Howarth resigned in June to accept a position in Rockland. ]Miss Jeanne Sanborn resigned in June to be married. Mrs.Alma F.Barrett resigned in June to return to her home in the West. Miss Mildred R.Garland resigned in June because of ill health. ]\Iiss Anna H.Shaw resigned in June to accept another position. Miss Beryl E.Cram,a graduate of the University of Maine, a teacher of several years'experience,was elected to the position of English teacher in the high school. Miss Mary Terry,a graduate of the four years'course at Bridgewater Normal,was elected to the position of teacher of arithmetic in grades six,seven,and eight. Miss Anna Kinsella,a graduate of the three years'course at Salem Normal,was elected to a position in the fifth grade. Miss Elizabeth Knowles,a graduate of Bridgewater Normal, was elected to the position in grades four and five. Miss Mary E.Polk,a graduate of Castine Normal and a teacher of experience,was elected to the position in grade four. Room Congestion The serious congestion which occurred in grades four and five last year was remedied by taking one of the high school class rooms for a fifth grade.This compelled us to use the 10 poorly ventilated room under the roof on the third floor for some high school and sixth grade classes.The enrollment in the sixth and seventh grades is a little smaller than last year, so the congestion in these rooms is not so bad as it was.How- ever,these rooms and the third grade room have too large an enrollment for the best work. The Town is to be congratulated on the step it has taken in providing a new primary school for the pupils of the lower grades.The Building Committee assures me that it will be ready for occupancy next September,so the Osgood School may be arranged next summer to accommodate the upper grades and the high school. I am suggesting that the old G.A.R.Building be used for the manual training work;that the present furnace be removed, and the building heated by steam from the boilers in the Osgood School.This will give additional room for the classes, and will eliminate the care of the fire in the building.One janitor should be able to care for the Osgood School under these conditions,and one can easily care for the new building. With the additional rooms,one new teacher will be added to the force,and the congestion in the sixth and third grades will be eliminated. I am recommending that the Domestic Science be assigned to a room on the first floor of the Osgood School over the present manual training room,and that the manual training room be used for the lunch room,by installing a dumb waiter between the two rooms.This will give a light,well ventilated room for the classes in cooking,and a very good room for the lunches. We plan to use the two back rooms on the second floor for the commercial and drawing rooms.We will place in the commercial room drop-top typewriter desks,so that the same room can be used for bookkeeping,typewriting,and stenog- raphy.All the high school work will be done on the second floor,excepting the laboratory work in the science classes,the chemical and physical laboratory on the third floor remaining in the same location. 11 Seats will be provided for the assembly hall,so that it can be used for the purpose for which it was planned. We plan to put the older fifth grade pupils into the class in the Osgood School,so that there may be no overage pupils in the primary building.This will eliminate one of the problems in discipline that has been difficult to solve under present conditions. The following rough plans show the proposed distribution of the classes in the two buildings.

The estimate provides for two hundred assembly seats, twenty typewriter desks for the new commercial room,equip- ment for the new domestic science room,and steam heat for the G.A.R.building,which is to be used for manual training.

The age of admission was fixed at six years,but pupils who had attained the age of five years and ten months were to be admitted at the beginning of the school year.Pupils becom- ing six years of age later in the year may be admitted,if they have done the work previously covered by the class. Conclusion Much credit is due the teachers for their devotion to their schools.We have a well trained corps of teachers,many of whom have served the children of the town for years.That they have more than a professional interest in the boys and girls should be realized by the parents. We seek the cooperation of every parent and citizen.Aim to know the teachers better,and you will know your boys and girls better.Your criticism made in a constructive spirit is always welcome.

Dear Sir:Inasmuch as practically no changes have been made in high school courses or administration during the past year,my report is chiefly of a statistical nature.Contemplated changes in curriculum as well as increased use of visual educa- tion have been held in abeyance,pending the construction of the proposed new building,releasing a portion of the present Osgood School for the use of the upper grades.So great was the need of room,particularly in the lower grades,that the high school was obliged to give up a room used as a recitation and home room last year.This loss of a room was partially met by using again the old free-hand drawing room on the third floor.This use has been for the most part confined to small classes and even those not in successive periods in order that the ventilation might be more nearly adequate.Our problem was again made simpler by the comparatively small enrollment this year.In the entering class there were nine boys and twenty-three girls;in the tenth grade,eleven boys, fourteen girls;in the eleventh grade,eight boys and fifteen girls;and in the twelfth grade,eight boys and eight girls. Our teaching corps remained the same as last year with but one exception.Miss Victoria Howarth resigning in the summer to accept a position in Rockland.Miss Beryl Cram,an exper- ienced teacher of English,was elected to fill that position. Field hockey for the girls,baseball and football for the boys comprised the athletic program for the year.Most of the interest in these sports was among the younger pupils although an effort was made to provide opportunities for all who wished to compete.In addition to the above mentioned sports,several indoor track meets were held in the hall of the Lincoln School, Hingham,in which some of the younger pupils competed. The "Junior Prom "and "Senior Class Night "are the 20 outstanding social events of the year,eagerly looked forward to by all the pupils. For the first time in recent years,at least,the school play put on by members of the senior class,assisted by other pupils, was a popular stage play,"Daddy Longlegs "being chosen by the class for their annual production.The proceeds from the play are used for the expenses of "Class Night "and other class projects. The spring concert given by the high school chorus and assist- ing artists was inaugurated last year most successfully.This year it is to be given as a Lenten musicale,the chorus numbers for the most part being sacred music. Owing to a misunderstanding as to the dates given for graduation and class night,it was found necessary to hold graduation in the afternoon and the class night exercises in the evening.This arrangement proved a very agreeable one to quite a number,although there were those who would have preferred the customary arrangement. The following is a list of awards made during the year. The George H.Mealy Post Medal award,Miss Geraldine GilHs; the prizes given by the Woman's Alliance of the Unitarian Church for the best essays,Ella Hillis,first,Arnold Peterson, second;the Lincoln medal for the best essay on the life of Lincoln,Peter Shuebruk.The highest awards in typewriting were won by Faith Cogill and Martha Bethel,the awards being gold pins,presented by the Remington Typewriter Company.The Scholarship Award,which is the income from the Nichols Fund was awarded by the committee to Ella B. HilHs.

Dear Sir:I submit for your approval a brief report of the Art Department for the year nineteen twenty-five. No change has been made in the general program as followed the year before.I have taught drawing in all the grades above the third,free-hand drawing to the High School girls,and mechanical drawing to the boys of grade eight and of the High School.Supervision has been attempted in the primary grades and because of the limited time that may be devoted to these grades,the measure of success achieved in each one is due largely to the faithful efforts of its teacher.The Beechwood School has kept up its usual good work. The annual exhibit of Drawing,Sewing,Cooking and Manual Training was held in the Town Hall in May,in connec- tion with a Spring Musicale.This arrangement proved to be very satisfactory and made an entertaining affair which had real educational values. Two of the girls who graduated from the High School in June are now attending art schools,one at the Massachusetts Normal Art School and the other at Boston University. In December a group of Junior and Senior girls was conduc- ted to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts to see the special memorial exhibit of Sargent paintings. The year has been a busy one,full of the joy and value which come from creating things,whether they be the simple problems of grade one or the craft problems and blue prints of the High School. In conclusion,I wish to thank you and the members of the School Conimittee for your helpful cooperation and friendly attitude toward this department. Respectfully submitted, January,1926.FLORENCE E.KRAUS. 25 REPORT OF HOUSEHOLD ARTS DEPARTMENT Mr.O.K.Collins, Superintendent of Schools. Dear Sir:I submit for your approval and acceptance my annual report of the Household Arts Department for the year 1925. The same general program has been carried on in the high school and the grades as has been followed in previous years, a few necessary changes being made. We have had some new equipment for the lunch room,some of the old benches have been replaced by stools which are more comfortable and convenient. The lunch room has been well patronized during the past year;at times the seating capacity has been inadequate for the number who came. A change was made this year in the date of the exhibition which has been held on the afternoon and evening of graduation. This year,in conjunction with the Art Department and Manual Training Department,the exhibition was held in May,on the evening of the musicale given under the direction of the music supervisor. There were articles of underwear and dresses shown,made by grades five,six,and nine,and trays for convalescents prepared by grade 10. In closing I wish to thank you for your cooperation and to express to the School Committee my appreciation of their helpful attitude toward this department. Respectfully submitted, HELEN C.WELCH. 26 REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN The past year has been practically free from epidemics with the exception of a few cases of whooping cough.We still have a fairly large number of pupils who are ' 'underweight ' ' —seventy-nine in the Osgood School.The causes of this condition are various.Previous illness,late and irregular hours and insufficient food probably are responsible in many cases. A very common cause,however,consists in lack of supervision by the parents of the pupil's meals.Haste to get out to play leads to rapid eating and poor assimilation of the food.Irregu- larity of the times of meals is also a serious fault.These matters should not be left to the judgment of the child,for they are of extreme importance in the growing age. About fifty of the pupils most needing such care receive milk during recess at the expense of the Social -Service League. This service has proved to be of great benefit ;for twenty-eight pupils who were underweight last year have now reached normal weight. With thanks for the cooperation of the School Committee, Superintendent,teachers and particularly of the School Nurse, Respectfully submitted, OLIVER H.HOWE.M.D. 27 INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT Mr.Orvis K.Collins, Superintendent of Schools. Dear Sir:I herewith respectfully submit to you my report of the Industrial Arts Department for 1925. "We have large numbers of young men presenting them- selves for a college education who would be prepared for much more useful citizenship if they could be persuaded to enter the trade schools and prepare for the ranks of the skilled workers." The above statement was taken from a letter of a leading educator in one of our institutions of learning. Among the youth of today there are,as there always have been,those who,because of their outstanding intellectual abili- ties,should prepare for college and the professions;but so long as most of our highly skilled labor has to be performed by imported workmen,some of the boys of America are failing to improve their opportunity.Eventually about sixty-six per cent of the boys the country over find their life work in manual activity,either in industry or agriculture.Boys of average ability and also some possessing great ability may find a surer path to success and life's happiness in industry than they will in the professions.A boy of great scholastic attainments graduated last June from the college course of a near-by high school.His father,a successful and shrewd business man, placed him with a large corporation at manual work,to learn the industry from the bottom up.A large success is certainly possible for him,and will probably be his. At least two reasons may be mentioned why more boys are not educated for leadership in industry.One is that the technical schools,including the trade schools,below college grade,are comparatively few,widely scattered,all crowded and with a waiting list.The other is the apparent lack of respect for honest toil.We need a new sense of the importance and dignity of labor.Too many boys are expected to make good at white 28 collar,non-producing occupations,when by nature they were destined for productive work.I hope that a trade school will be established in Cohasset or a near-by town to serve the boys that are desirous for trade education,who cannot now conven- iently receive it. The activities in our manual training shop have been wood- work,including lathe work,printing,weaving and electrical work,combined with woodwork.An effort has been made to acquaint the boys with as many tool processes as possible, augmented with considerable trade information to serve as a basis for a future occupation.Due consideration has also been given to the needs of the boys to whom it has largely a cultural value.A number of good books have been added yearly,which now constitute a fair industrial reference library. Boys are doing a good deal of repairing of school furniture. At this writing the eighth grade boys are voluntarily engaged in refinishing every desk top in their class room. It will be a welcome day for the boys and the instructor when we may leave the dark and small basement for a larger and well-lighted building.

One hundred two boys and girls were enrolled in club work dtu-ing last year.The public exhibition held at the Town Hall on October 2,was the largest the children ever put on. Junior Extension work is one of the war time activities that is proving its usefulness in times of peace as well as war,largely because of its appeal to the natural interests of boys and girls. The Canning Club held its meetings at the Bates Building dtu'ing the summer,in charge of Miss Ethel Hayes,the Norfolk County Canning Club leader.Poultry club work was carried on throughout the year,with monthly meetings during the school terms. A group representing the garden,canning,and poultry clubs attended Achievement Day at Walpole in April.All over twelve years of age,who desired to go,attended the Norfolk County Field Day at the Agricultural School at Walpole in August. Sanford Damon,John Leonard,George Valine and Richard Tisdale exhibited poultry at the Eastern States Exposition at Springfield,and spent two days there as guests of the manage- ment.John Leonard was awarded two second prizes and Sanford Damon one second prize on Light Brahmas.Richard Tisdale won two sixth prizes on Barred and White Rocks. During my absence in July and August Rev.Fred V.Stanley carried on the work.A complete list of the winners of the Cohasset Exhibit,and a statement of the finances,are appended. Respectfully submitted, M.H.MEYER. 30 CONTESTS AND AWARDS OF THE BOYS'AND GIRLS' SUMMER PROJECTS The prizes were contributed by the following citizens and residents of Cohasset:Mr.and Mrs.Hugh Bancroft,Mr. Clarence Barron,Mr.and Mrs.Edward B.Bayley,Mrs. Mary K.Bolles,Mr.and Mrs.Lewis A.Crossett,Mr.and Mrs.Edwin L.Furber,a friend,Mrs.Benjamin D.Hyde, Miss M.V.McCormick,Mr.John F.McElwain,Mrs.Arthur N.Milliken,Mrs.B.L.Sankey,Mrs.Bessie H.Savage and Mrs.Alice Williams.
