"To the Voters of the Town of Cohasset: At the March,1920,meeting the Town voted to instruct the Moderator to ax:)point a committee,consisting of the Chair- 14 man and Clerk of the Board of Selectmen,the Chairman and Clerk of the School Committee and five citizens,to make a study of the questions relating to further school accommoda- tions in Cohasset and to present specific recommendations to the Town not later than its next annual meeting;their report to consist of the following: First,a report to reduce the system and get along with present accommodations. Second,a report to enlarge the school plant so as to accom- modate the present system properly and provide adequate accommodations for physical education and auditorium. Third,a report after conference with the Selectmen and the American Legion for a combination of school accommodations, assembly hall and business offices,or both,and a memorial hall. Fourth,to report as to the advisability of undertaking to finance the plans provided in the second or third report in whole or in part by voluntary contributions. Pursuant to this vote the Moderator appointed as a com- mittee Messrs.Mapes and Brown of the Board of Selectmen, Messrs.Stanley and Beal of the School Committee,and Messrs. C.Keefe,C.W.Gammons,E.N.Tower,J.E.Grassie and I.F.Sylvester.On account of Mr.Stanley's absence in Europe with the Boy Scouts the Moderator appointed in his place Mr. Shuebruk of the School Committee. The Committee met and organized by electing Mr.Shue- bruk temporary chairman and Mr.Beal secretary. As a result of their consideration and the reports made to it by sub-committees,the Committee reports specifically,as instructed by the vote of the Town. First:No plan to reduce the school system and get along with present accommodations is practicable.The only methods of reducing the school system are by eliminating certain so-called special or extra courses,such as the manual training, household arts,commercial courses and kindergarten.These courses are all carried on in quarters which could in no way be adapted for the regular courses.The manual training is carried on in the basement and the commercial courses on the third floor of the Osgood Building;the kindergarten and household 15 arts course are conducted in the Bates Building.None of these rooms could be used in any satisfactory way to relieve the present over-crowded conditions of the rooms where the so-called regular and essential courses are conducted. To drop the special courses would result in a saving in the operating expenses of the schools,but would in no way help to relieve the over-crowded condition of the rest of the school. This is something which can be accomplished only by new quarters for some of the regular classes either in the elemen- tary grades or in the high school. Second:The Committee has had two suggestions for enlarging the school plant so as to accommodate the present system properly and provide adequate accommodations for physical education and an auditorium. The one involving the least present expenditure would call for a six-room building to care for the kindergarten and four lower grades.If this suggestion were adopted the building should be planned so that it could later be turned over into a modern high school building. The other plan would call for the construction of an eight- room building to be used as a high school.The present building, with the addition of few windows could be made into a very satisfactory twelve-room building with a small assembly hall. This would accommodate the eight grades and kindergarten, allowing for an extra sixth grade room,an extra first grade room,and one other extra room.The present manual training room would make a very satisfactory lunch room. Third:The Committee realized that the Town needed,in addition to greater school accommodations,an assembly hall large enough to accommodate the voters and better facilities for Town Officers,and also that the Legion is planning to pro- vide itself with suitable and permanent quarters. It is evident that greater utility for all three of these objects and a decided economy in construction would be secured, by combining the additional school quarters,Town Hall and offices,and Legion building either in one building or in one group of buildings.For example,the School Department and the Legion both need an assembly hall,but they could con- 16 veniently use the Town Hall if it was located near their build- ings.The School Department and the Legion both believe they should have a gymnasium and they could both use the same gymnasiimi if located near enough to both school and Legion buildings.There would be further economies of construction, heating,general maintenance,grounds,etc. In furtherance of this idea sub-committees were appointed. The results of the investigations made by the Sub-Com- mittee on Schools,which was assisted by the Superintendent, Mr.Collins,have been given under the first and second head- ings of this report.The reports made by the Sub-Committee on Town Hall and Legion quarters were submitted by the Com- mittees to Messrs.George F.Newton and Joseph N.Willcutt, who gave a great deal of time in studying the project and in preparing sketches,floor plans and approximate estimates of cost. The Committee on Sites procured the services of Mr.John Nolen of Cambridge,town and city planner and landscape architect,and the possibilities of the Town were thoroughly canvassed.As a result this sub-committee recommended as the only practicable sites for a combination of these three buildings the Cousens and Andrews properties adjoining the present school lot on the southerly side of Elm Street,directly opposite the Osgood School building and now occupied by the Bates Building and private owners. No steps were taken to estimate the cost of securing either of these sites. Since the Committee organized and after the greater part of its work was done,the situation regarding a Town Hall has changed materially.In the near future the number of qualified voters will be at least double what it was a year ago;and the Legislature has refused to recommend any amendment to the Constitution which will permit towns of less than four thousand inhabitants to organize on any precinct voting plan. Of course it is impossible for the Committee to foresee what action the Town may take to provide accommodations for its Town meetings,which are required by law,but it is apparent that the necessity for a new Town Hall is vastly more pressing 17 and immediate than it was a year ago.Even if the Town should be disposed to go forward with a plan for a group of buildings such as has been suggested,it might feel that a new Town Hall could not wait upon the development of the entire plan.This possibility,the Committee feels,makes it all the more impera- tive that,in any plans for Town building,all of the future needs of the Town should be kept in mind. Fourth:Several suggestions were made regarding the possibiHty of private subscriptions in aid of the project and in particular it seemed probable that a good deal of help could be secured in defraying the cost of a Legion building.As the plans and even approximate costs are all so indefinite,however,it has been impossible to make any progress along these lines. Appended to this report is a sketch made by Messrs. Newton and Willcutt.It is not intended in any sense as a definite or final plan of even what the Committee might recom- mend,but merely as a suggestion of the possibilities contained in one method of developing a combination of the three needs of Cohasset today —a new Town Hall,a High School building and a Memorial Building for the George H.Mealy Post of the American Legion. The whole cost of the building suggested might approxi- mate $300,000 exclusive of the site,but th«part of the building devoted to the Legion would presumably be provided for by private subscription. We recommend that a committee of five be appointed by the Moderator,of which the Chairman of the Board of Select- men shall be one,to secure plans,specifications and definite estimates of the cost of constructing the buildings referred to and to secure definite estimates of the cost of acquiring either of the sites suggested." Voted:That the above report be received and placed on record and that a committee of five,of which the Chairman of the Board of Selectmen shall be one,be appointed by the Moderator to continue the investigation relative to the con- struction of a schoolhouse and Town Hall in connection with quarters to be erected by the George H.Mealy Post of the American Legion,with instructions to secure plans,specifica- 18 tions and definite estimates of costs,including costs of sites,on the alternative plans suggested by last year's Committee,and that the sum of $500 be raised and appropriated for necessary expenses of the Committee. Article 46.Herbert A.Tucker and others.Will the Town raise and appropriate the sum of S2,500 for the dredging of Cohasset Harbor? Voted:That the Town raise and appropriate the sum of $2,500 for the dredging of Cohasset Harbor;to be expended provided a sum satisfactory to the Selectmen and Harbor Com- mittee is allotted by the Department of Public Works of the Commonwealth during the current year to be used with the sum appropriated under this article.

Article 48.Henry T.Lincoln and others.Will the Town raise and appropriate the sum of $600 to build a gravel sidewalk with a concrete edge on the westerly side of South Main Street about 450 feet long to the Scituate line,or act on anything relating thereto? Voted:That the Town raise and appropriate the sum of $600 for the above purpose and the kind of edge to be used be left to the discretion of Highway Surveyor.

Cohasset,January 20,1922. 86 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN To the Citizens of Cohasset: In making a report of our stewardship for the year 1921 we feel that a volume of words is not needed or expected,for our acts during the 3^ear are apparent to all observing citizens. The work of remodeling the Guild Hall into headquarters for the George H.Mealey Post,American Legion,was completed during the year and it is now occupied by the Post,also affording quarters for the Volunteer Veteran Firemen's Association,in accordance with the vote of the Town,and without expenditure above the appropriation. The financial report shows over expenditures of appro- priations by several departments and it is hoped that the department heads will each recommend such appropriation for the operation of his department for the ensuing year as will care for its needs,and not cause this Board to exhaust its emergency fund for maintenance expense as was the case during the past year,also having in mind the necessity for economy in every department with a view to reducing the tax rate,which last year was the highest in the history of the Town,and at the same time maintain the highest possible efficiency of his depart- ment. Respectfully, HARRY E.MAPES, HERBERT L.BROWN, WILLIAM O.SOUTHER,JR., Board of Selectmen. Cohasset,January 1,1922. 87 ASSESSORS^REPORT FOR 1921 Cohasset,December 31,1921.

To the Board of Selectmen. Gentlemen:The Board of Engineers appointed by your Honorable Board for the year ending April 30,1922 met in accordance with your instructions and organized with the following choice of officers: Chief,Fred C.Blossom. Assistant Chief,Sidney L.Beal. District Chief,George Jason. District Chief,Frank F.Martin,Jr.. Clerk,George F.Sargent,Jr. From the last annual report it appears that the depart- ment has responded to seventy-eight alarms for buildings, chimney,automobile and grass fires including one false alarm. Number of feet of hose laid 4,950.Number of feet of ladders raised 485.Number of gallons of chemical used (not including grass fires)approximately 600. The fire losses of the year follow: Value of buildings and automobiles burned $76,800 00 Loss on buildings and automobiles burned 8,800 00 Insurance on buildings and automobiles burned ...39,400 00 Value of contents of buildings 7,775 00 Loss on contents of buildings 2,763 00 Insurance on contents of buildings 5,900 00 Total loss on buildings,automobiles and contents...11,563 00 Again this year an amount in excess of our appropriation was spent on the Fire-Alarm System. Owning to the inaccuracy of Box Alarms received and the 93 numerous complaints of the citizens it was deemed advisable by the Board of Engineers to have an expert engineer from the Gamewell Fire-Alarm Company to come and go over the system and make recommendations without expense to the Town. The report was received and called for the expenditure of a large sum of money which did not include the extra amount spent on the Fire-Alarm System this year.It was found that all over the town limbs of trees were interfering with the wires, causing short circuits,also that insulators on cross arms were defective. The outside system at the present time from the Report of the Electrician is in good condition. Respectfully submitted, FRED C.BLOSSOM,Chief, SIDNEY L.BEAL,Assistant Chief, GEORGE JASON,District Chief, FRANK F.MARTIN,JR.,District Chief, GEORGE F.SARGENT,JR.,Clerk. 94 REPORT OF SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES To the Board of Selectmen. Gentlemen:Your sealer in submitting his ninth annual report would respectfully state that the four hundred and twelve appliances now in use for weighing and measuring in Cohasset have been tested and sealed as required by law and have received such further inspection as would insure their continued accuracy and efficiency.Conditions in Cohasset as reported by the state inspector as regards apparatus,its use and condi- tion,are most gratifying to your sealer and should be equally so both to our dealers and citizens as well. While the activities of this small department are usually lost sight of when considered with others that require the appropria- tion of thousands of dollars,nevertheless no department and its work are more intimately connected with the family pocket book,especially in times like the present when the price of commodities is high and money none too plenty.However, whether the public interest may or may not touch this little department,its size and state of mind might perhaps be likened to the so-called "flivver "which without notice chugs merrily along at its business and gets there just the same. Yours respectfully, CALEB NICHOLS,Sealer. Cohasset,January 24,1922. 95 REPORT OF TREE WARDEN Cohasset,Mass.,January 23,1922. To the Citizens of Cohasset : Your Tree Warden in submitting his report for the year 1921 respectfully states that the year has been a success, greatly due to the mild winter and early spring. Pruning was done where needed and in some instances it was necessary to cut the trees down,because of inside deterio- ration,due to limb break and leaf sap. The trees were sprayed as soon as leafed out in order to suppress the insects before they got the leaves pinholed,which causes a very great sapping of the tree. A large number of trees were set out and my one hope is that there shall be many more,as they are a great factor in beautifying the town. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE YOUNG, Tree Warden.

To the Citizens of Cohasset: We,the members of the .George H.Mealy Post No.118, American Legion,desire to express our appreciation and grati- tude to the citizens of Cohasset for their generosity in providing our Post with the splendid,roomy and up-to-date club house which has recently been completed and leased to this Post. The members of the Post are very enthusiastic and justly proud of their new quarters,which constitute,without doubt, the finest American Legion club house provided for ex-service men,by any town in the State. We realize and appreciate the fact that this fine club house necessitated a heavy expense and placed quite a burden on the taxpayers.For this sacrifice and generosity on the part of the Cohasset citizens we are deeply grateful and assure you that we shall endeavor to carry on the patriotic work of the American Legion ever true to its high ideals —"For God and Country —for Law and Order."* Yours very truly For the Post, EUGENE N.TOWER, REV.JAMES P.SHERRY, Committee 98 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH The following cases of infectious and contagious diseases were reported to this Board during the past year: Chicken pox 25 Diphtheria •7 Measles 6 Scarlet fever 18 Tuberculosis 6 Whooping cough 17 Lobar pneumonia 4 One slaughtering license was granted during 1921. The inspector of slaughtering inspected (149)one hundred and forty nine carcasses during the past year,(2)two of which were condemned. Report from the School Dentist Following is a report from the school dentist to this Board: Gentlemen : It gives me pleasure to submit to you the following report which is a summary of the work completed by me since the opening of the School Clinic,and closing with the close of school on December 20,1921. Gold fillings 8 Gutta Percha fillings 1 Silver Nitrate treatments 12 Gold inlays 2 Gold bridge of two teeth 1 Silver fillings 1,080 Root canal fillings 47 Extractions 445 99 Treatments 176 Cleanings 278 Enamel fillings 229 Gold crowns 3 Pulp cappings 2 Cement fillings 15 Porcelain crowns 1 The percentage of children in all grades up to the High School who have had work done at the School Chnic is 69.3%. Respectfully submitted, FRANK A.DERBY,D.M.D. School Test Clinics This board has instituted a series of weekly free clinics for the purpose of administering the Schick Test to adults and all children of Cohasset two (2)years old or older,in the lower Town Hall every Tuesday from 3 to 4 p.m. The Schick Test is a simple harmless injection between the layers of the skin usually of the forearm near the elbow. This injection produces a wheal and is often referred to as a "mosquito bite." The subject is seen again in four days and the findings noted.If the area about the injection is reddened,the subject is liable to contract diphtheria,under proper exposure. We have thus a test of remarkable value.These who are non-immune or liable to take diphtheria can be made immune or unable to take diphtheria by injecting into the upper arm a toxin-antitoxin mixture (about fifteen drops)once a week for three weeks;gradual immunity is produced and is complete in about two months.The immunity lasts for years and perhaps a lifetime.It is earnestly hoped that all Cohasset citizens and especially parents on whom lies a double responsi- bility will inform themselves fully on this subject and avail themselves of this means of protection from diphtheria. 100 It lies entirely with the citizens of Cohasset either to exterminate diphtheria or to sit down and await its onslaught. Respectfully submitted, IRVING F.SYLVESTER,Chairman, EDWARD L.HIGGINS,Secretary, FREDERICK HINCHLIFFE,M.D. 101 REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF MILK AND VINEGAR To the Cohasset Board of Health. Gentlemen:I have taken numerous samples of milk and caused them to be examined.The analysis shows Cohasset is fortunate in having milk of standard qtiality. I have examined vinegar from all the local merchants and it all was practically up to legal requirements. Ten (10)licenses to sell and deliver milk were issued by me during 1921. A license was refused to Mr.A.A.Davenport,of Cedar Street to sell and deliver milk in Cohasset after receiving the analysis of the water supply on his farm,which was condemned by the State Department of Public Health. He appealed from my decision to the State Department of Public Health and a date was set for a hearing. Board of Health,Cohasset,Mass. Gentlemen:In accordance with the provisions of Section 41 of Chapter 94 of the General Laws,this department gave a hearing on September 6,1921,upon the appeal of Mr.A.A. Davenport of Cohasset,from the action of Mr.Irving F. Sylvester,Milk Inspector of Cohasset,in refusing to grant the said Mr.Davenport a license to sell and deliver milk in Cohasset. This matter was again considered at a meeting of the Public Health Council of the Department held on October 11,1921, and after consideration of all the evidence submitted it was voted that the action of the Milk Inspector of the Cohasset Board of Health in refusing Mr.Davenport a license to sell and deliver milk be approved. It was also further voted that if upon another investigation by the Division of Sanitary Engineering of this department the water supply of Mr.Davenport's farm is satisfactory and the 102 cellar well filled,that the Cohasset Board of Health be so notified and the Board be then requested to issue a license to Mr.Davenport. I am enclosing herewith a copy of a communication which is going forward to Mr.Davenport relative to this matter. Very truly yours, EUGENE R.KELLEY, Commissioner of Public Health. Respectfully submitted, IRVING F.SYLVESTER Inspector of Milk and Vinegar. 103 COHASSET FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY In Account with Oliver H.Howe,Treasurer Dr. To Payments in 1921 For Books $232.50 Rent of Safe Deposit Box 5.00 Treasurer's Bond 2.50 Postage and Stationery 1.06 Support of Paul Pratt Memorial Library 418.13 Exchange of Securities 42.50 Commission on Exchange and Investment ....5.88 Investment of Funds 438.80 Balance on Deposit,January 2,1922: Weymouth Savings Bank 114.07 New England Trust Co 423.21 Cr.

Cohasset,January 9,1922. 105 IMPORT OF THE DIRECTORS OF THE PAUL PRATT MEMORIAL LIBRARY We herewith submit our report for the year ending Decem- ber 31,1921. The past year has been one of added interest shown in the Ubrary as indicated by the increased circulation of books. This is true not only of the central library but applies also to the branches in the Beechwood district and at North Cohasset. Especially gratifying,as an evidence of interest in library purposes,is the bequest to the Cohasset Free Pubhc Library by Miss Ella Bates,of one hundred dollars for the purchase of books for the Beechwood branch,and a committee representa- tive of the district has been appointed to advise in the carrying out of this bequest. Very little has been required in the way of repairs for the past year,an improvement of the basement lighting and the installation of additional radiation in the rotunda being the principal items. We note with regret the withdrawal from the board of the Rev.George A.Mark,occasioned by his relinquishing the pasto- rate of the First Parish,so that our board is at present lacking in full membership. Subjoined are the reports of the Librarian and Treasurer, which show in detail the working of the library and the financial transactions involved in its maintenance.

To the Citizens of Cohasset; Following is my report as Highway Surveyor for the past year: The carting through Doane Street towards the Hingham line,of wood,logs,etc.,was very heavy from the early fall of 1920 into January,1921,causing very deep ruts,and as the weather was mild your surveyor started work on January 7. Over three hundred and fifty loads of stone and gravel were used in this work until it was finished. After the spring opened the other part of Doane Street was built by the penetration system;nine hundred and thirty yards of stone,two sizes,were used;also one thousand five hundred and sixty yards were built on Margin Street by the same method. Two very deep catch basins were built and three hundred and eighty feet of glazed drain pipe were laid as outlets;this draining must be done before the macadam is started.Six new catch basins were built and a number of old ones repaired. Nearly all the streets were covered with tarvia and heavy oil. The K.P.patching method we use is used mostly by all super- intendents of streets and highway surveys.About forty-one thousand six hundred gallons of tarvia,heavy oil and patching material were used last year.The culvert on Spring Street near the James Pratt Corner so called was taken up and a twenty-four inch corrugated iron pipe thirty-six feet long was laid in its place and covered with a foot of concrete.This work costs a little more than usual but it is a permanent job. All the drains that cross under the streets are being built with corrugated pipes as glazed pipes freeze in the winter and burst. The sidewalks about town were covered with the usual amount of stone dust,screened gravel and cinders. 112 The part of Jerusalem Road that was built over is standing excellently under the severe test it is getting,notwithstanding other reports.The severe storm of July gutted our streets that are constructed over hills so badly that the two thousand dollars that was appropriated to finish other work had to be used in repairing these streets as some of them were practically impas- sible.The new road grader was used to a great advantage;all of the gutters were cleaned with this very useful implement. The stone crusher is kept in first-class condition and is ready with very little expense to commence work.About one thousand, two hundred tons of stone were crushed last year.The steam roller is in perfect condition also. In Memoriam It is with regret that we record the death of Alson S. Richardson who died in December.He was employed for many years by the highway department of this town,was always faithful and efficient and died mourned by all citizens who have had the pleasure of his acquaintance. In conclusion your highway surveyor and his associates take this opportunity to thank all for their many acts of courtesy and kindness in the past.

This Town,a^well as other towns,was badly infested with tent caterpillar nests,which were very conspicuous along the roadsides and as they feed earlier and faster than the gypsy or brown-tail my first duty was to clear the roadsides of them, which I did. Spraying was then begun for the destruction of gypsy and brown-tail caterpillars and very good results were obtained,as was shown later on,when the 1921 fall work of creosoting commenced.Gypsy-moth egg clusters and brown-tail webs were not nearly as numerous,therefore the Town is at the present time in a very clean condition regarding these pests. After the spraying season there was a lot of work done mowing bushes along the roadsides,within the boundaries. This work v/as done mostly on Pond Street,King Street,Beech- wood Street,Doane Street and Forest Avenue. The engines on both spraying machines have been thoroughly overhauled and are in perfect condition for the spraying season of 1922.The private liability is not as large by far this season as it was last as some of the largest estates in Town were not sprayed this year;also I did not cha^rge for scout work on private property where no nests were found,even though we did look their places over. Respectfully submitted, JOSEPH E.GRASSIE. 118 REPORT OF THE OVERSEERS OF THE POOR The affairs of this part of the town's work have been carefully conducted and all calls have been properly attended to. We have been able to keep within our appropriation and have only a small amount of unpaid bills,viz.:$195.46,these being received too late to be paid before the close of our books. The Cohasset Home under the same able and efficient management has been well conducted. We shall be obliged to repair the ceiling in the Home basement and paint the exterior of the house and barn. The Overseers will have estimates to submit at the proper time. Dr.Hinchhffe was appointed Town Physician for one year in May. Miss Mary E.McKeown continues her ministrations as district nurse and we recommend an appropriation to assist in paying her salary. We recommend an appropriation of $13,000.00 for this department for 1922 exclusive of repairs and painting.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE The report of the School Committee for 1921 with the financial statement of the treasurer is herewith submitted to the Town.Full information with respect to the school work will be found in the reports of the Superintendent of Schools,the Principal of the High School and the supervisors of depart- mental work. The change in our system of superintendence has worked out in a most satisfactory manner,and the Committee has words of heartiest praise for Mr.Collins'work as Superinten- dent.A distinct advance has been noted throughout the year not only in the grade of work done but also in the school spirit and general morale.This has been evidenced by less problems of discipline,a gradual awakening to the fact that indifferent and careless work can not be expected to win satisfactory scholar- ship marks or grade promotion,a liveHer interest,keener competition and better sportsmanship in athletic activities, and a belief,shared by scholars and teachers alike,that the schools are on the up grade. It will be seen by the financial report that the cost of moving and renovating the G.A.R.building exceeded by $560 the estimates that were given at the special town meeting.After the building was moved it was found that it needed re-shingling.This was done at a cost of S400,and this together with other minor alterations,not anticipated in the original estimates,accounts for the additional cost.This building,however,makes available for school uses,two well- lighted and comfortable schoolrooms which are of indispensable value in relieving the immediate pressure in the Osgood building. But the problem of larger school accommodations has not been solved.It has simply been postponed. The budget for.1922 is several thousand dollars larger than last year,if the special amount raised for moving and renovat- ing the G.A.R.building is excluded.The items which are mainly responsible for this increase are three.First,a new item is added to the budget for tuition.The state law compels the Town to pay the tuition of pupils who attend certain approved trades schools.Very few Cohasset pupils in the past have availed themselves of this provision,but during the present school year twelve pupils have been enrolled at the Quincy Trades School and $683 was paid by the Town for tuition in 1921.It is estimated that $1,500 will be needed for this purpose in 1922.Half of the sum expended for tuition is repaid later by the State but the reimbursement comes direct to the town and is not available for school purposes. Secondly,the experts who have surveyed the Osgood School building from time to time have called attention to a serious defect in its construction,viz.,the lack of sufficient windows to give adequate light for school work.This defect can be largely remedied by putting in new windows.The Committee asks for $1,000 to be expended in putting in new windows in rooms where there is greatest need of more light. The third item of increased expense is the matter of salaries.In line with the general movement throughout the country the salaries of our teachers have been steadily advanced during the past four or five years.This has been absolutely necessary in order to secure and retain the best teachers avail- able.The estimate for salaries is based on what is actually being paid the teachers for the present school year.It is not anticipated that further increases in any general way will be necessary,as teachers'salaries have reached a fairly stable condition. The Committee calls attention to the fact that the net cost of the schools for the coming year will be about $6,250 less than the figures submitted in the budget,for the town will receive from the state treasurer under the provision of the State School Fund Law more than $4,000,as reimbursement for salaries paid during the year ending June 30,1922; the proceeds from the school lunch will amount to approxi- mately $1,500;and half of the amount expended for tuition will be returned by the State. Respectfully submitted, THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.

The year has been most satisfactory in many respects. There have been few interruptions,and no serious epidemics to interfere with the work of the schools.The most severe problem we have had to deal with has been the numerous changes in the teaching force.There is no longer an actual shortage of teachers in Massachusetts,but the supply is still so limited that experi- enced teachers who have shown proficiency in the work are at a premium,and can be secured for vacancies in a town like Cohasset only by paying our maximum salary. Resignations and Elections In January Miss Nash resigned and Mrs.Schulmeyer,a teacher of broad experience,was engaged as substitute for the remainder of the year.A change of residence in the spring compelled her to give up the work,and Miss Hennessey,a graduate of Fitchburg Normal,was secured as substitute for the remainder of the year. In June,Mr.Harper and Miss Bray,high school teachers, and Miss Gushee,Miss O'Malley,Miss Harrington and Miss Collins,teachers in the grades,resigned.Three of these teachers accepted positions in Chelsea at higher salaries,Miss Collins entered Bridgewater Normal School,Mr.Harper took up advanced work,and Miss Bray wished to teach nearer her home. The position of sub-master in the high school was filled by the election of Mr.James Webster Doyle,a graduate of Boston University,Mr.Doyle teaches history and has charge of the athletics.We feel we were most fortunate in the selection of 9 Mr.Doyle for this position.Miss Leita L.Sawyer was elected to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Miss Bray. Miss Sawyer is a graduate of Boston University,has had suc- cessful experience in the schools of Dover and Townsend, and conies to us most highly recommended.She is teaching Latin and English and has charge of the girls'athletics. Miss Priscilla Moore,a graduate of Bates College,with one year's experience in the junior high at Revere,was engaged for the English work in grades seven and eight.Miss Dorothy Kennett,a graduate of the four years'course at Salem Normal, was engaged for the work in arithmetic in grades seven,eight and nine.Miss Moore is room teacher of one of the seventh grade rooms and Miss Kennett is in charge of the other seventh. We feel that with Miss Bates,Miss Moore,and Miss Kennett in charge of the departmental work in the seventh and eighth grades we are obtaining most satisfactory results. Miss Helen F.Buckley,a graduate of Bridgewater Normal, was elected for the sixth grade position.Miss Buckley the past year was principal of the graded school at Raynham. Miss Helen L.Brown,a graduate of Bridgewater Normal, was elected as teacher of the fifth grade.Miss Brown is a graduate of Bridgewater Normal,and has had successful experience in the schools of Northampton. Miss Grace L.Morton,a graduate of Farmington Normal, with several years experience in schools of Maine and Raynham, Mass.,was elected for work in grades one and two.This position was made necessary by the crowded condition of the first and second grades. .It will be seen from the above that thirty-three per cent of our teaching force are serving their first year in the schools of Oohasset.This is in itself a serious problem,one we should not be required to meet often.Notwithstanding this fact, the work has gone on in a most satisfactory manner,and a fine . spirit of co-operation exists in the teaching force. Salaries of Teachers The question of resignations and the filling of vacancies naturally brings up the subject of salaries.The salaries of the 10 teachers in both the high school and the grades were raised last September at the rate of $150 per year. The following are the salaries now paid:principal of high and junior high school,$2500;manual training instructor, $2100;sub-master of high school,$1600;three teachers in the high school,$1600 (one of these receives $100 additional for special work);two,$1500;and one,$1400;the teacher of music,$550.In the junior high grades one teacher receives a salary of $1450;one,$1300;and one,$1200.In the lower grades three receive $1350;one,$1300;two,$1250;and three, $1200. In comparison with other towns,the following data secured December 1 shows the relative maximum salaries in towns similar to Cohasset: Maximum salaries paid elementary teachers:Milton, $1550;Concord,$1500;Needham,$1500;Wellesley,$1600 Lexington,$1500;Walpole,$1500;Winchester,$1500 Reading,$1400;Hingham,$1350;Manchester,$1500 Cohasset,$1350. Maximimi salaries paid high school teachers:Milton $1700;Concord,$1800;Needham,$1650;Wellesley,$2200 Lexington,$1800;Walpole,$1700;Winchester,$1800 Reading,$1800;Hingham,$1600;Manchester,$1800 Cohasset,$1600. Only two of the towns mentioned,Manchester and Welles- ley,have a higher valuation per pupil in net average member- ship.This is the accepted standard of the ability of a town to pay for education. It will be seen from the maximum salaries paid in the other suburban residential towns that we have not yet reached the standard set by these towns.• New Building The new building is now completed and is a temporary relief from the congestion in the lower grades.In it we have two well lighted,well ventilated,and well heated rooms. One is being used for the combination'first and second grade divisions,which relieves the congestion in these two grades. 11 The other is used for the drawing classes.The old mechanical drawing room is thereby released for the use of the Frei^ich and mathematics classes.The old free hand drawing room is not in use,nor should ever a room so poorly lighted and ventilated have been used as a class room. We must bear in mind that this is only a small step toward correcting the building deficiencies.In the Survey of the Schools of Cohasset made by Professor Johnson,it was pointed out that the Osgood building comes far from serving its present use. The building is badly planned in the arrangement and number of windows.The adaptations made to meet the increased enrollment have increased the faults. In the lighting of schoolrooms the light should come preferably from the left,or if a part of the light comes from the back,the stronger light should come from the left.Pupils should not sit facing windows.With respect to the direction from which the strongest light comes,only two rooms are commendable,two are moderately fatilty,and the rest have serious defects of lights and shadows.The rooms also lack the amount of glass area required.Those on the first floor have the following percentages of deficiency in window area :24 per cent,20 per cent,10 per cent,24 per cent,20 per cent,26 per cent,and on the second floor,24 per cent,20 per cent,10 per cent,24 per cent,10 per cent and 18 per cent.I am recommend- ing that in the general appropriation this year an appropriation of SI 000 be made to be used toward correcting these deficiencies. The deficiencies cannot wholly be eliminated,owing to the depth of the rooms which greatly exceeds the standard depth from the windows,but conditions can be greatly improved. There is immediate need of other additional room.The school is without an assembly hall and gymnasium,a condition which should not exist in a town like Cohasset.The chemical and physical laboratory is ill fitted for the needs of the school. The manual training room is wholly dependent on artificial light.The lumber and machine room takes up space that should be utilized as recreation rooms.The corridor space leading to the toilets is altogether too small.We have forty pupils in each of the fourth,fifth and sixth grade rooms.Any 12 additional increase in enrollment will call for another teacher for the .third and fourth grades,and another for the fifth and sixth grades. An addition of two rooms would release the assembly hall for assembly and ph3'sical training uses.Another room would meet the laboratory needs.Two more are needed for the work in manual training,and within a verv^short time,two more for the relief of grades three to six.Five rooms and a g^onnasium are needed now,and two or three additional rooms soon. The citizens should be prepared to decide not later than one year from now whether school accommodations should be added room by room,or whether a comprehensive plan should be followed which would care for the schools for a period of years. Expenditures and Estimate Attention is called to the tables showing the expenditures for 1921 and the estimate for 1922.Three items should be given especial attention.The increased estimate for salaries is made necessary by the increases in salary"made last September,which were in operation only four months of the year.To maintain the same rate of salaries and to grant the usual increases to the teachers who have not reached the maximum mil require the amount asked for. Under repairs,one thousand dollars is asked for to be expended in additional windows as pre\dously mentioned. Under tuition,there is an estimate of Sl,oOO for trade school tuition.At present there are ten students in the Quincy Trade School and two more were in attendance a part of the year.The law requires that the tuition be paid by the town, the State later reimbursing the town one half of the cost. This reimbursement goes into the general fund of the towTi and cannot be used by the School Department. Yoiir attention is called to the receipts of the School Depart- ment.It will be noted that the receipts for the past year amounted to 86,091.86,making the net cost of the schools exclusive of the new building $48,281.84. 13 School Attendance Attention is called to the table showing the age and grade distribution for September.The total attendance is two less than one year ago which is accounted for by the fact that ten students were in attendance at the Quincy Trade School.There were only three pupils in school who were three or more years retarded in school work.One hundred and sixty-six pupils were under the normal age for their grade and forty-six were over the normal age for their grade.The large number of under- aged pupils is a strong indication that promotions have not been made difficult in the past. Promotions We are trying to stiffen the requirements for promotion. As I mentioned last year in my report,it is a serious matter for a pupil to remain two years in the same grade,but it is a far more serious matter for a pupil to receive promotion without earning it.No pupil will be promoted who fails to receive a passing mark in two major subjects.If a pupil fails in not more than two subjects and is able to make up his deficiencies in the summer school he may receive a trial promotion. • Summer School A large and very successful summer school was conducted last summer.The teachers were Mr.Morrison,Miss Stanley, Miss Wing and Miss McMahon.There were about eighty pupils in attendance.Arithmetic and English were the subjects taught.All pupils who cared to come were admitted,but no pupil who had failed in more than two subjects could gain a trial promotion by such attendance. Special Subjects I wish to call attention to the excellent work done in manual training,household arts and drawing.The fact that the cost of these departments may be large for a town the size 14 of Cohasset is justified by the results obtained.We have seen fit the present year to secure the services of Mrs.Stevens, the supervisor of music,for an extra half day each week,so that she may be able to take full charge of the music in grades seven and eight as well as in the High School,thereby relieving the room teachers for other class work The attendance of several boys at the Trade School at Quincy has temporarily reduced the size of the classes in manual training.We are informed by the Trade School that no new pupils will be admitted next September,which will require that we care for the needs of such pupils at home.A lathe would materially increase the efficiency of the department. Athletics The superintendent is a firm beHever in the importance of physical training and athletic sports in the schools.The past year we have endeavored to make some progress in this line. The school was represented in the spring by a baseball team that made a very creditable showing.In addition there was a team from the seventh and eighth grades,and a freshman team, each of which played several games both at home and in the neighboring towns.• Baseball was also played by the girls,and there were several interesting games played between the girls of the Osgood School and the schools in Hingham. In the fall the Osgood School was represented by a football team in the Junior Triangular League which was composed of two teams from the Hingham Schools and the one from Cohasset. At present the school has two very good basketball teams. The interest of the public in this sport is evident from the attendance at the home games. The leadership of Mr.Doyle and Miss Sawyer in the athletics should be warmly commended When the baseball season again arrives,we shall call upon Mr.Meyer and at least one of the women teachers in addition to Miss Sawyer to assist in supervising this most popular sport. 15 We expect that the school will be represented by no less than six baseball teams. No class room instruction can equal the athletic sports in emphasizing the value of health habits and proper physical development. Auxiliary Agencies I wish to express my appreciation of the spirit of service shown by the Parent-Teachers'Association,and the Social Service League in the work of the schools.We solicit the interest and co-operation of every organization that stands for the promotion of the public welfare. Looking Forward In planning for the immediate needs of the school our present condition needs most serious consideration,but in all public work -the future must be considered none the less than the present.A look ten years ahead or even twenty-five years ahead is not visionary,it is common sense. The kind of a town we will have twenty-five 3^ears from now will be the kind of a town we are willing to pay for in the educational advantages offered.Cohasset has no future but that of a residential town.It has an abundance of attractive sites for homes.It is not too far from Boston to be attractive to business men as a place to live in the year round. The first question that is asked by one contemplating locating in a community is in regard to the efficiency of the schools.In the building program which must come up next year,the question must be considered from every angle,and no plan adopted that will not be a fit unit of the educational equipment ten or twenty years from now. Conclusion In conclusion I wish to express to the citizens my appre- ciation of the interest that is shown in the schools and the spirit •of co-operation that is so evident.It is clearly obvious that 16 you appreciate the significance of the school system in a com- munity.To the teachers who are so zealously serving the community I am grateful for the fine spirit that is always manifested in the work we are doing together;and to the School Committee I wish to express my appreciation for the frank and serious consideration that has been given to all sug- gestions I may have made and for the confidence that has been expressed in my work.

Dear Sir:I submit herewith my fourth annual report as principal of the Cohasset High School. Our enrollment for the year 1921-1922 is one hundred and nineteen,divided as follows:entering class,thirty-one;second year,forty-two;third year,twenty-one;fourth year,twenty- five.This is a slightly smaller number than last year,due to a smaller entering class,six boys entering the Quincy Industrial School from last year's ninth grade and the removal from town of several famihes. For years the free-hand drawing room in the Osgood School has been the subject of unfavorable comment of all who have visited the building and have seen classes at work there.It was small in size and very poorly ventilated.Its use by large classes has been at the expense of the health of those obliged to use it.The addition of the new building gives the art department a room which is well hghted and ventilated,one which has been comfortable even in extremely cold weather and which promises to be cool in the spring and summer months. All the drawing classes of the high school,both free-hand and mechanical meet in the new building,and are enabled to work to much better advantage than heretofore.The room vacated is used as little as possible,a class of five using it only two periods in the week.At present the wireless club is installing its instruments there and is planning to use it for weekly meet- ings.The removal of desks from the room formerly used for mechanical drawing,the installation of additional blackboards and tablet arm chairs has provided another recitation room for high school use,well Hghted and ventilated,suitable for classes not exceeding twenty pupils. 21 There have been several minor changes in the curriculum. The course in Business Law,given for some years,has been replaced by a course in Business English.It has been thought wise to give the two bookkeeping courses in successive years instead of in the second and fourth years as heretofore,and this plan will be put into operation next year.The first year courses in General Science and Community Civics are given three periods per week during the entire year instead of five periods per week for a half year each.Under the direction of Mr.Meyer, some of the boys of the ninth and tenth grades have been work- ing on a course in practical electricity.Theory and practice have gone hand in hand,the boys having constructed motors, traced circuits,repaired electric bells and learned some of the principles of correct wiring. In addition to the regular high school baseball team,a junior team was organized last spring.A league,comprising teams from the two grammar schools in Hull,the Lincoln School in Hingham and the Osgood School,was organized,each team playing eight games.Teams were also formed among the grls and in addition to class games,some games with girls' teams from other schools were played.Mr.James W.Doyle, in addition to his work as History teacher,has charge of athletics among the boys of the school,and Miss Leita Sawyer,teacher of English and Latin,has charge of the girls.Under the joint direction of Mr.Doyle and Miss Sawyer,an interclass meet was held in the fall.Events were arranged for both boys and girls and although the participants were handicapped by inadequate grounds the meet was a success,the tenth grade winning by a good margin.Both basketball teains are having a successful season,having won a majority of the games played. An effort has been made to provide school activities,other than those of the class room,for a larger number of pupils and especially along lines other than athletic.To this end,the last period on Tuesday has been set aside for club activities.At present,we have a wireless club,dramatic club,girls'glee club, and a poultry club.Plans are under Way for a school orchestra, a college club,arts and crafts club and a club composed of those interested in a school paper.Each is or will be under the direc- 22 tion of a teacher or competent leader and it is hoped that they may be of assistance in helping some pupils to decide on their vocation in life as well as to afford opportunities for puriDoseful activities. From time to time,speakers have come to the assemblies of the high school,presenting opportunities of the various vocations and some progress in the field of vocational guidance has been made. My previous reports have called attention to the needs of the high school,such as better facilities for work in physical education,both indoors and out,an assembly hall which may be used for the social activities of the school as well as for dramatics,increased laboratory facilities for the science work of the first two years,more nearly adequate lunt^h room accommo- dations and better quarters for the manual training department. These needs are still to be met and until such time,the work of our high school will be handicapped as measured by the newer educational standards.

Dear Sir:In accordance with your request I submit for your approval the annual report of the art department for the year nineteen hundred and twenty-one. The usual annual exhibition of drawings and handicraft was held in the Town Hall on the afternoon and evening of June 26.Much credit is due to the teachers of the first,second and third grades and of the Beech wood School for the excellent results obtained in those grades. A noteworthy event which occurred in December was the removal of this department to new quarters in the annex which has been erected on the school grounds.Our new room has distinct advantages which we enjoy and appreciate.Here the classes of the free-hand and mechanical drawing departments of the High School meet and this centralization of work and materials will result in a saving of time.The lighting is good, making the use of artificial light unnecessary except on very dark days.This feature is'appreciated especially by the boys who have worked,heretofore,under very trying lighting conditions.The problem of ventilation which was a serious one in our studio is eliminated in this new room.The greater amount of floor space makes it possible to seat larger classes and the tables may be arranged in more convenient manner. These and other advantages are sure to promote greater efficiency and to produce larger results than have been possible under less favorable conditions. For the spirit of co-operati,on and helpfulness which you have shown,I desire to express sincere appreciation. Respectfully submitted, FLORENCE E.KRAUS. January,1922. 27 REPORT OF HOUSEHOLD ARTS DEPARTMENT Mr.O.K.Collins, Superintendent of Schools. Dear Sir:I submit for your approval my report as super- visor of Household Arts in the Cohasset public schools. In September the work of the seventh grade was changed from sewing to cooking.The girls now receive instructions in sewing for three years and in cooking for three years. "Learn by doing "might be taken as a motto for this department and it is hoped that this "doing "in school may help the girls to appreciate the work necessary in the home and contribute their share toward it. The girls in the fifth grade make their sewing equipment and a petticoat;the sixth grade make cooking caps and aprons and a princess slip or nightgown. The girls of the High School classes make various articles of wearing apparel,their final achievement being a dress. An exhibit of this work was held at commencement in Town Hall in conjunction with the exhibits of the Manual Training and Art Departments. The seventh grade receive instruction in simple cooking and study the effects of different foods on our bodies. The upper grades learn the serving of foods as well as the cooking of them by serving in the school lunch room which is run in connection with this department. From January to June of 1921,the lunch room co-operated with the Social Service in serving milk to underweight children of the lower grades.The Social Service furnished the milk, the children to receive it were recommended by the school nurse and the milk was distributed every school day at 10.00 a.m.and 12.00 m.by the assistant of the lunch room. Between fifteen and twenty children received milk and in most cases a gain in weight was reported. 28 At all times the department supervises the lunches of the little children,supplementing them with soup or cocoa when inadequate or the weather is cold and even furnishing limches for children who for some reason were unable to bring them. In closing I wish to thank you for your co-operation and to express to the School Committee my appreciation of their help- ful attitude toward this department. Respectfully submitted, HELEN C.WELCH. January,1922. 29 REPORT OF INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT Mr.Onds K.Collins, Superintendent of Schools. Dear Sir:I hereby respectfully submit to you my report as director of the Industrial Arts Departm.ent for 1921. "Education is a natural net an artificial process;it is a development from within,not an accretion from without;it comes through the workings of natural instincts and interests and not through response to external force;it is an expression of natural powers,not an aquisition of information,it is life itself,not a preparation for a future state remote in interests and characteristics from the life of childhood."—Rousseau. In harmony with the spirit of the above definition of education,the emphasis in the Industrial Arts Department during the past year has been laid on the development of boys, rather than on the construction of projects.The project has been emploA^ed as an agenc}^to challenge the boys to use their natural latent powers,which tends to "put their feet upon the high road that leads on."Four different activities,each basic of many vocations,are now open to the boys,for the broadening of general culture and for tryouts in occupations.Woodwork, printing,metal work and electrical work are making their appeal.A nimiber of boys have definitely decided to enter mechanical or technical trades,and it would not be difficult to point out some other boys whose contact with Industrial Arts in our shop have convinced them that their greatest usefulness lies in other fields. Our school paper the ''Beacon "which was first issued last year has doubled its size and about reached the limit for our pressroom facilities.The classes in electrical work are making small motors,and some are trying their hand at building dvnamos and transformers. 30 Ten Cohasset boys are now at the Quincy Industrial School,learning trades under state supervision.It is the opinion of leaders in education that vocational education is only in its infancy.Owing to the crowded condition at the Quincy School no additional Cohasset boys can be accommo- dated either this or next year.It would be safe to predict that the Town must look elsewhere for that type of education. The time may come when Cohasset together with other nearby towns will establish a trade school for both boys and girls.The State believes in it to the extent of paying one half of the main- tenance of such a school,including teachers'salaries,supplies, etc. The interests and the quality of abilities of the great majority of our boys do not point to institutions of academic education,but rather to mechanical and technical.I believe that an appeal along this line,with increased periods for shop work,machine and architectural drawing and mathematics for entrance requirements to higher institutions would meet with response.The use of a lathe would correlate with such a course,and I hope it may be possible for us to secure one this year;it would be a stronger factor in the development of boys than any other machine now in the shop,excepting possibly the printing press. I desire to express m}'appreciation of your sympathetic supervision and co-operation. Respectfully submitted, M.H.MEYER. January,1922. 31 REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN The experience of the past two years has demonstrated the value of frequent inspection of pupils during the existence of contagious disease.Instead of closing schools,they have gone on without interruption and with inspection.Isolated cases of scarlet fever and diphtheria have occurred,but in no case has an epidemic of either disease resulted.The use of the Schick test for diphtheria,which our Board of Health is now introducing,promises to make diphtheria a very rare disease or even obsolete. There is great need at the present time of more careful supervision of pupils by their parents in the home.The innum- erable evening attractions are so tempting that pupils fail to get sufficient sleep during the important period of growth and development.Loss of sleep and dissipation of energy react upon their studies and diminish their vigor as well as their powers of resistance to disease. The proportion of pupils who can swim is increasing, but not as rapidly as it ought.Cohasset's facilities for sea bathing in the summer are unrivalled and every pupil of ten years or older should have the benefit of this healthful and refreshing exercise,together with the personal safety swimming affords and the ability to save life in case of accident. With grateful recognition of the co-operation of the committee,superihtendent,teachers and the school nurse. Respectfully submitted, OLIVER H.HOWE,M.D. 32 REPORT OF CLUB WORK Mr.Orvis K.Collins, Superintendent of Schools. Dear Sir:I hereby respectfully submit to you my report as director of Club Work for the season of 1921. Gardeners labored under unusual difficulties last year. Draught and heavy rains alternated during May and June, retarding and injuring gardens on the high and low lands.The majority of the junior farmers,however,finished their project and exhibited at the Town Hall in September. It was a banner year for poultr}^and pigs,as may be seen from the many prizes won outside of Cohasset,a record of which follows. At the Marshfield Fair,Murray Perr\^won a second and two third prizes on White Rocks,and in competition with adults he won a first and second on beans,and a second prize on cucumbers.Robert Perry received a second and two third prizes on Rhode Island Reds.Charles Henry was awarded a third on White Leghorns,and Thomas Valine,two thirds on White Cochin Bantams and Silver Spangled Hamburgs. At the Norfolk County Fair at Walpole,Murray Perry won a first prize on a pen of White Rocks,and five first prizes on vegetables as follows:individual collection,beets,beans,com and tomatoes.Robert Perry was awarded one first,one third and one fourth prize on Rhode Island Reds.Leland Towle won a first and two seconds on White Leghorns.Arnold Peter- son was awarded a second prize on a pen of Barred Plymouth Rocks,a first on onions and a second each on beans and carrots. Thomas Valine won a first and a second on his Hamburgs,a first on Cochin Bantams and a second prize on his Berkshire pig- At the Brockton Fair pigs only were exhibited.Out of 33 four boys exhibiting Hampshire pigs,Arthur Brassill won the first prize,John Davenport,the second,and John Avers,the third.The fourth,a boar exhibited by Robert Pern-,won a special first prize.Herbert Bates received a first special on a litter of Duroac Jerseys,and Thomas Valine won a second on his Berkshire. x\t the recent Boston Poultr\^Show,Thomas Valine was awarded a first,a second and two thirds on his Hamburgs and Cochin Bantams.Murray Perr\'won a fourth prize on a White Rock Cock,and Robert Perry took first prize on a Rhode Island Red hen in competition with forty-three others and also a second on a pen of Reds. The boys are to be congratulated on winning forty-six prizes outside of Cohasset,representing a total of seventy-six dollars in cash. The poultrv^club of thirteen boys,owning a total of one hundred fifty-three birds,during the winter meets monthly in the Manual Training room,where the selection and care of poultry is discussed.Mr.Nodine,the state poultry leader,has instructed the boys in caponizing,and Mr.Dizer,the County leader,has performed two operations on birds,each for a differ- ent common ailment of poultr\\ The work of the canning club was not up to the standard of the last few years,due in part to the graduation from school and the dropping out,of our best canners.During the simimer the club meet twice a month at the Bates Building.The girls attended the Sectional Canning ^Meeting at Weymouth in August,and enjoyed an outing at Nantasket Beach.The club decorated and entered a float in the fourth of July parade, winning a fourth prize.All but one girl exhibited the required amount at the fall exhibit. Six boys and girls,prize winners from last year,enjoyed the week in camp at Massachusetts Agricultural College.They were Miss Marion Curley,Miss 'Evelyn Martell,Frank McLean, Murray Perr\',Thomas Valine and Herbert Bates.Frank McLean took part in the stock judging and won a ram. Thomas Valine,through his experience with live stock,has definitely decided to follow Agriculture and Animal Husbandry 34 and is now attending the County Agricultural School at Wal- pole.From latest reports he is doing good work there. A group of boys and girls attended Achievement Day at Walpole last April,and all club members over fourteen years of age enjoyed Walpole Day in August.The trip was made in autos. The annual exhibit was held in the Town Hall on September 15.The evening program included opening remarks by Mr. Orvis K.Collins,Superintendent of Schools,demonstration of seed planting by Murray Perry,culling of poultry by Thomas Valine,Arnold Peterson and Leland Towle.Reports of week at Amherst by Miss Marion Curley and Miss Evelyn Martell. An interesting and instructive address on "Work and Play" by Mr.Clarence Barron,and the presentation of prizes by Rev.F.V.Stanley,chairman of the school committee. In behalf of the boys and girls I wish to thank the residents and citizens whose generosity ihade possible the excellent prizes,and those who gave time and thought to the success of the work.A financial statement,and a complete list of the winners at the Cohasset exhibit will be appended here. Respectfully submitted, M.H.MEYER, January,1922.Director of Club Work. 35 CONTESTS AND AWARDS OF THE BOYS'AND GIRLS' SUMMER PROJECTS Cohasset,1921 The prizes were contributed by the following friends and residents of Cohasset:Mr.and Mrs.Hugh Bancroft,Mr.Clar- ence W.Barron,Mrs.Florence A.Bartow,Mr.and Mrs. Edward B.Bayley,Mrs.Mary K.Bolles,Mrs.George G.
