Report of the Board of Education of Union School
District, for Year Ending March 31, 1908.
To the Inhabitants of Union ISchool District:
The annual report of the Board of Education for the
school year closing March 31, 1908, is respectfully sub-
mitted.
The past year has been a period of progress and improve-
ment very unusual even in a district as liberal and ad-
vanced as this district. Scarcely three years have elapsed
since the movement began in respect to enlarging tire
former High school so that the largely increased number of
scholars could be accommodated or by building a new High
school to supersede the other. The proceedings in connec-
tion therewith are too fresh in the public mind to require
recapitulation at this time. At the beginning of the fall
term the High school was occupied for permanent use and
its numerous class rooms and spacious and attractive accom-
modations are greatly appreciated.
The new school for Manual Training on Rumford Street
is a most important addition to our school buildings and
fills a want long felt in this branch of education. When
the time came to give this school a name the board in-
stinctively thought of Dr. Shadrach C. Morrill, a former
member of this board, whose nine years of diligent and la-
borious service did much to advance the character of our
schools including industrial education.
The completion of these buildings left the board facing
SCHOOL REPORT. 59
the question of use and occupation of the former High
school. The board unanimously voted to establish a central
ninth grade school in the building under the principalship
of ]\liss Dickermnn. The three classes of that grade were
thus consolidated into one and the results already obtained
prove beyond doubt the wisdom of the movement. This
building has been named Parker school, in honor of the
Rev. Henry E. Parker, first President of the Board of
Education.
Union District is now remarkably well equipped with
modern schoolhouses, but the large debt incurred in their
construction will be a burden on our revenues for many
years to come. The bonds are reduced at the rate of $8,000
a year.
The board is pleased to report that the claim against the
Marsh Coal Company has been paid to the last dollar and
most satisfactorily disposed of without any loss to the dis-
trict. The board again asks the liberal cooperation of thg
parents respecting any matter connected with the schools
and their conduct. We feel that much good woiild result
from such intercourse and that the welfare of the pupils
would be enhanced. In respect to the course of study
some changes may be desirable, but owing to college require-
ments Concord alone can scarcely undertake to compel radi-
cal alterations in the prescribed studies. The direct control
over our pupils is very limited so far as the Board of Edu-
cation is concerned, therefore, much is left to the parents.
Unless we receive their good offices and support our schools
will never attain the standing we all so earnestly desire.
The board has under consideration a plan to improve the
classification of salaries and to render more definite the in-
crease and the maximum. The subject is a difficult one,
but by no means impracticable, and it is hoped that another
year will see its adoption. The board desires to call the
careful attention of the citizens of Union School District
to the comprehensive report of the Building Committee

Report of Committee on Buildings and Repairs.
Concord, N. H., February 25, 1908.
To tlie Board of Education of Union ScIlooI District:
Genti^emen : The Building Repairs Committee of the
Union School District submits this annual report.
The committee for the past year has pursued the same
policy as of a year ago, /. e., not undertaking any large re-
pair work, but having done in all the buildings sufficient
work to bring each building up to as high a state of repair
as possible.
The Rumford schoolhouse was thoroughly overhauled,
revarnished and walls painted, and all wood work painted
outside, furnace overhauled and all furniture put in first-
class shape.
In the Dewey school two new ceilings were put in and
three rooms thoroughly put in order. This leaves two halls
which should be done this year.
The Franklin school was thoroughly cleaned, revarnished
and reealcimined in all rooms and halls.
At the Walker school the woodwork on the outside of the
building on the covings, porches and tower was thor-
oughly renovated, also all decayed places renewed. This
building should be thoroughly painted outside. Inside the
building the six rooms were washed and reealcimined, both
walls and ceilings. On the third floor, north side of the
building, the panels in the dormer windows were taken out
and two new windows put in. This increased the light in
the rooms from the north side 100 per cent, which greatly
improved the rooms. The finish in this building has had
nothing done to it for a good many years and should be
thoroughly washed and revarnished. The stairs are in
great need of new treads.
The Merrimack school retaining wall on the east side of
the lot has been giving away for some time. During last
64 CITY OF CONCORD.
summer the severe rainfall undermined the wall and it was
necessary to rebuild it the entire length.
The kindergarten at the Franklin school was removed to
the Merrimack building, and necessitated putting in order
as far as possible one room in this school. The condition
of the building is poor and we feel that $300 or more spent
there this summer would greatly improve it as far as the
appearance and cleanliness are concerned.
The outside of the Tahanto, Merrimack, Chandler, Pena-
cook and Rumford schools were all painted. All the fur-
naces in the buildings were thoroughlj^ overhauled again
this summer, all the broken parts replaced.
The Parker school boiler was retubed and this coming
summer the valves in this building should be renewed and
some of the pipe re-hung. The roof should be re-graveled
and interior walls re-colored.
The office of the superintendent was moved back to the
Parker school. The old chemical laboratory of the High
school was re-fitted for a class room, and the main hall sup-
plied with 170 desks to accommodate the ninth grade. The
Training school was moved to the new Manual Training
building and cooking room fitted up ; also the wood work
room, iron work room and sewing room.
Although we are unable to point to any one large job,
and it is impossible to enumerate the many small ones which
were done, we feel that the result has greatly improved the
efficiency of the buildings.
Yours respectfully,
GEOEGE M. KIMBALL.

The above enumeration is for the year ending June 14,
1907. The only sections which have shown a noteworthy
increase in school attendance are the southern part of the
district and the Plains. In the southern part the gain was
of such an extent as to require the establishment of two
new schools in the Chandler building. At the Harriet P.
Dame school it was due mainly to the transported pupils
requiring the use of the extra room, so that the building
now contains four flourishing schools quite well graded.
It is probable that this increase will continue in both
sections.

66 CITY OF CONCORD.
The attendance at the High school has shown a steady
gain, the maximum enrohment of 386 pupils having been
reached in the fall. This is the largest number ever re-
corded as attending the High school. If the ratio of en-
tering pupils from the grammar schools is maintained as
high as in previous years, I expect to see an enrollment of
at least 450 pupils next fall. The northern part of the
district lost in attendance in consequence of the higher
grading of the parochial school in that part of the city.
High School.
The High school is in a flourishing condition, evidenced
by an increased attendance, a well-arranged curriculum of
studies, more commodious quarters, and efficient manage-
ment.
The attendance, larger than ever before, may be sum-
marized as follows : Maximum enrolhnent, 386. The
largest number present any one day, 374.
The graduating class of last June numbered 57, 25 boys
and 32 girls. Of this number 12 have entered college,
one has gone to West Point, one to Annapolis, and one to
the Springfield Manual Training school.
The new building was occupied in September, and on
this account the w'ork of the school has received material
benefit. There is now plenty of room, well lighted and
well arranged, also a large assemlily hall, good laboratories
and a library.
The principal changes in the curriculum have been in
the arrangement of courses, subjects and the increased
number of weekly recitations. The courses are elastic
enough to allow the student sufficient latitude in his choice
of studies.
In the Commercial course the following subjects have
been added : Penmanship, in the Freshman year. Com-
mercial History in the Sophomore year, and Commercial
Law in the Senior year.

course which was recommended in my report of last year.
This course, approved by the Board of Education and the
State Superintendent of Public Instruction, combines the
regular work of the High school with that of the Manual
Training school. At first this brought forth some criticism
from a few pupils and parents which seemed to be en-
tirely uncalled for because it lacked the foundation of fact.
There appeared to be a reduction in the number of pu-
pils taking manual training. A careful reading of the
following statistics will set at rest such criticism.

The year 1908 takes second rank in point of numbers.
On the basis of periods of work done the showing is better
this year than ever before. The largest number recorded
in any of the years mentioned w^as 65 in 1895. The num-
ber of periods employed was 130, in two weekly periods
of 45 minutes each. This meant 971^ hours of w^ork given
the subject. At present there are 58 pupils having a total
of four hundred periods or over 300 hours, practically
three times as much time as given heretofore.

The course has been started in the first two years only
with the idea of working it to completion gradually. At
present there are eleven sophomores and seven freshmen
taking it, while others elect manual training whenever it
is possible.
All books of reference have been placed in the 'library
and reading room, which is in charge of a teacher during
each period. The value of this room is appreciated by the
students and is in constant use. Some provision should be
made for the annual purchase of reference books for the
library.
During the year five valuable pictures w^ere hung in the
assembly hall, two gifts of Mrs. John C. Ordway and Miss
Louise A. Ordway and two being bought with money ap-
propriated from the Prize Speaking Fund. The class of
1896 has given a picture of the statue of Lincoln by St.
Gaudens. Provision should be made for systematic dec-
oration of the rooms. An annual outlay of a few dollars
for pictures and statuary would relieve the barrenness now
so noticeable in the building.
The Parker School.
Beginning with the fall term, all the M classes of the
district in the city proper were consolidated into one school
in the Parker building. This scheme had been tried in a
limited way at the Chandler building with favorable re-
sults, so that it was really no experiment this year. An
SCHOOL REPORT. 69
enrollment of 170 pupils was reached as a maximum, five
teachers and a clerk being employed. The school has
proved to be popular, enthusiastic, well ordered and effi-
cient, and inasmuch as it is, during the last half of the
year, of a high school grade, it should embrace all the M
classes of the district, because advantages can be had here
that cannot possibly be obtained in schools where there
are two or three classes in a room. Perfect harmony has
prevailed, a high standard of scholarship has been main-
tained and a school spirit displayed such as is not possible
in a school of more than one class. The work has been
conducted on the departmental plan with a single session
lasting from 8.30 a. m. to 1.30 p. m., and a recess of
fifteen minutes. The discipline has been all that could be
desired. As a means of connecting the work of the ele-
mentary schools with that of the High school it serves its
purpose admirably and ought to remain a peculiar feature
of our school system for an indefinite future.
On January 20 occurred Parents' night. About four
hundred people were present at the exercises, which con-
sisted of songs and calisthenics by the school and appro-
priate remarks by Hon. C. R. Corning, President of the
Board of Education, George H. Moses, Esq., a member of
the board, and Howard H. Carroll, principal of the Man-
ual Training school. The affair was an unqualified success
and served to inform the public of the purposes for which
the school was established. A lunch was served, prepared
entirely by the girls of the school. Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Ban-
croft and Mrs. Moses presided at the tables.
Music.
The results of a year's instruction in music reveal that
the conditions have been favorable, the text-books of the
best, the teachers intelligent and active and the pupils
interested.
The instructor asks that the ability to sing a simple mel-
ody in tune be made one of the requirements of a young
70 CITY OF CONCORD.
woman for entering the training school, if she intends to
prepare herself for primary work.
There is a fine chorus in the Parker school and one of
175 voices in the High school. The time given to this sub-
ject in the High school is unequal to the purpose. I doubt
if there is a high school in the state which devotes so little
attention to music, and the chorus singing shows the bad
effects of this curtailment of time. The school has a girls'
glee club and a boys' glee club and meetings have been
arranged on the last Thursday of each month, partly for
rehearsal and partly that the pupils may listen to vocal
and instrumental selections from talent outside the school.
Military Drill.
During the spring term military drill was not up to the
standard, partly because of internal dissensions and partly
because the instructor could not devote as much time as
usual to the work. Since that time conditions have im-
proved. A larger number of boys are uniformed and
more extended work has been done. ,
The instructor recommends that the uniform be made
compulsory, and that $200 additional be appropriated for
more equipment and the institution of gallery practice.
Training School.
There are nine pupil teachers enrolled in this school,
three seniors and six juniors. All who graduated last year
have positions, three in the city and two in other places.
The usual high standard of work has been maintained.
Kindergartens.
No new kindergartens have been established this year.
The Franklin kindergarten was moved to the Merrimack
in the fall, in order to allow the lowest primary pupils in
the Franklin building the opportunity of attending both
daily sessions. The result has been beneficial.

Night School.
An incomplete statement regarding the Night school
appeared in my last report. Incomplete because the school
was in session when the report went to press. From every
point of view it was a success, as is shown by the following
statistics.
The school of this year, while not so large as that of last
winter, is, however, just as enthusiastic and the per cent
of nightly attendance larger.
Every Tuesday evening the students assemble in the
large room for the purpose of singing national songs and
giving the salute to the flag.

Manual Training.
The occupation of the Morrill Manual Training school,
the adoption of a well-regulated course of study, and en-
larged facilities for carrying it into execution, all have con-
tributed to give this branch an educational character which
has not been attained heretofore. The new course ap-
proved by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction,
based upon rational progressive ideas, will more fully prove
its value ere another year has passed. Re-grading the
work first caused dissatisfaction in some quarters because
the new plan seemed too elementary. When the purpose
of the course came to be more fully understood this criti-
cism largely disappeared and the object of the change is
justified by the increased interest among the pupils.
All the rooms of the building are now in use. The first
floor is devoted to wood and iron work, and the second floor
to sewing, cooking and mechanical drawing. Under the
efficient supervision of Mr. Carroll this work is rapidly
becoming a great credit to our school system. Hereafter
wood work will be confined to the elementary classes and
iron work to the High school classes. Mechanical drawing
was discontinued in classes K and L in order that the re-
quirements of the state department might be fully met.
In iron work an increase of interest is reported as being
evident. The High school boys are devoting a greater
number of hours to the work than ever before, and the
enrollment holds well up to that of previous years. The
more strict requirements have done away with the practice
of taking this work as a means of "passing the points,"
and eventually will attract a larger number of pupils be-
cause the inherent worth of the course will become more
manifest.
A lack of equipment is reported for the iron work, and
SCHOOL REPORT. 73
especially for the wood work. I recommend that the room
uow occupied by the sewing school be given over to addi-
tional accommodations for the wood work. This will give
all the grammar pupils at least two and one-half hours of
v/ork each week and increase an interest which has begun
to flag because of- too short periods and too long intervals
between them. Eventually this building must be used for
wood and iron work alone. Additional equipment having
been provided, forging will be started as soon as forges
can be installed.
The prevailing tendency in matters educational is dis-
tinctly toward the industrial side. The immense sums of
money being expended in the erection of buildings and the
institution of special courses looking toward a complete
realization of well- wrought ideas on this subject, impress
one strongly of the fact that this matter is one not of pass-
ing moment, but that it has come to stay and that a revo-
lution in educational plans is certainly taking place. It
also prompts the question. What defects of the old system
caused this departure? It has been discovered that pupils
doing manual work in connection with their daily school
duties accomplish more in less time than before, that they
do the work better and are less liable to breaches of order.
The old system tended to swell the ranks of the common
laborers and deplete the ranks of skilled labor for this
reason. The school course consists of eight years before
reaching the High school. Of necessity the same studies,
the same methods, similar periods of study, the same en-
vironments prevail in the successive grades. To a healthy
boy this monotony was quite unbearable, the result being
that very many dropped out in the middle of the course to
take up ordinary positions of employment. With the in-
troduction of manual training this number has shown a de-
cided decrease. Without manual training the inevitable
result must be that those who drop out enter the ranks of
unskilled laborers which are always filled.
The ranks of skilled laborers are never filled, always
74 CITY OF CONCORD.
open to any one who can do skilled work. A course of
manual work paralleling the regular course has the tend-
ency to keep the pupil in school. If it is skillfully ar-
ranged and executed the boy sees before him not only the
completion of the course, but also avenues opened up which
enable him to enter technical institvitions and tmally be-
come the skilled workman whom the emploj'er is always
seeking. The monotony of the regular course is overshad-
owed by the possibilities of realizing his ambition.
Ever since the early days of indenture, the stress of pub-
lic education has been put upon the development of the
mind through the medium of the written and spoken word.
It seems to me that a grave error is being committed in
not beginning systematic manual training in the low-
est classes and making it continuous through the entire
course. To be sure we have clay modeling in the very low-
est grades, but outside of this nothing of a systematic nature
is to be found until the sixth grade is reached. In this
city separate buildings for industrial courses are out of the
question, but we can parallel the regular course with one
of manual work without much extra expense. I recom-
mend that it be instituted at the beginning of the next
school year. In general the year has been prolific in pro-
gressive changes, and the outlook for our schools to take
an advanced position in this work is better than ever be-
fore, and if practice is not too severely subordinated to
theory this will be realized. The generosity of the Board
of Education and the general public in responding to the
needs of this school are worthy of the most pronounced
commendation.
Cooking.
The cooking school opened its year in September under
auspicious conditions. The new room, the best equipped
of its kind in the state, has afforded such conveniences as
to make the instruction desirable for every girl who at-
tends school. The number of pupils has been materially
increased. Much annoyance is experienced from the jar
SCHOOL REPORT. 75
of the machinery from l^elow and from the reduced tem-
perature on the coldest' days. I suggest that lights be
provided for dark days and that six small ovens be pur-
chased for use in baking at the desks. The instructor
thinks that baking is the weakest point in the course and
that more efficient work can be done with an oven for every
four girls than one oven for the entire class which some-
times numbers thirty.
Sewing.
Sewing has been badl.y handicapped this yeav by a lack
of equipment. The cases which were formerly used for
the cooking school were transferred here and used for lock-
ers in which to keep the model books. This school should
be moved to another place to do away with the jar caused
by the machinery below, it being conducive neither to
steady hands nor calm nerves. INIid-winter promotions in-
terfere somewhat with the regularity of the course, but
this can be obviated by curtailing the requirements in
special cases. The instructor asks for one grade in a
class, but our system of grading will not allow this. The
school having been somewhat slighted in the matter of
equipment, I ask that it be given those furnishings which
every sewing school should have in order to do the most
successful work.
Drawing.
Nothing but the most favorable comments should be
given the work in drawing for the past year. An extra
half hour was allowed in schools of one grade. The im-
provement was noticeable in the daily work as well as in
the annual exhibitions at the State Fair and at the end of
the June term. During the winter term a limited display
of school drawings was made at the City Library which
elicited much favorable comment.
The Elementary Schools.
The accomplishments of the elementary schools probably
interest the general public more than those of any other
76 CITY OF CONCORD.
department. All and more than is necessary for a happy
and a prosperous life from the viewpoint of education can
be gained here if an earnest purpose is manifest in the
pupil seeking it. The schools are well graded, well taught
and conducted with as little friction as can be expected of
such public institutions.
Tlie opportunities for advancement rest almost wholly
with the pupil. The course of study, while not perfect, is
as nearly so as conditions will permit, and compares favor-
ably with others of a similar character. . The text-books are
modern in most instances and the methods those which are
employed by the best schools, evolved by the best educa-
tional thought and applied as well as the grading will per-
mit. Such changes as have been made are in the line of
better adjustment with the purpose of combatting the ever-
increasing tendency to force advanced work downward
upon the lower grades.
The graduation exercises occurred in June and also the
annual exhibition of manual training in its different forms,
and as usual they were attended by many interested
citizens.
The history work for classes I, J, K, L and M was
changed for the course provisionally reported by the Com-
mittee of Eight, which, prepared by some of the most emi-
nent authorities on the subject, was the outgrowth of the
report of the American Historical Association for 1905.
The rule which governs the holding of tests in the ele-
mentary schools should be changed as far as it applies to
classes K, L and M. Under the present ruling but forty
minutes are allo^ved for any kind of a test. While this is
enough for all ordinary tests in daily work, it is not enough
for a thorough examination of a term's work. The nerv-
ous strain upon children has been increased instead of di-
minished by the curtailment of time. In other respects the
rule is a good one. I recommend that the time for term
examinations be extended to at least one hour.
It is probable that 190 pupils will graduate from the
SCHOOL REPORT. 77
grammar M classes next June. The custom of years has
been to graduate all pupils who have apparently done as
well in the studies as they ever can. Some have been
denied admission to the High school because their marks
would not warrant it. Every year there are, perhaps, a
dozen pupils who would take up some advanced work if
they were given a chance, thus prolonging their school life
one, two, three or four years, as the case might be. The
custom of denying such pupils an opportunity of contin-
uing in higher work is not democratic. I believe they
should be allowed to enter the High school by special per-
mission, take up such lines of work as they are best fitted
for and upon completion of their stay in the school be
granted a certificate stating what they have done and what
degree of proficiency they have attained. Such a plan
ought to commend itself to everybody.
The results of the year in general are worthy of com-
mendation. The teachers have been faithful and generally
efficient, the supervision conscientious, and the general con-
duct of the scholars above the average. I believe that the
schools as they are conducted now receive the sanction of
all fair-minded people. There are defects, no doubt, that
can be obviated and it is the earnest wish of the superin-
tendent that all such be made known to him, for they will

Report of Building Committee.
To Union ScJiool District:
At a special meeting of the district, liolden on June 1.
1905, following the report of a special committee, ap-
pointed by the moderator, in accordance with the vote of
the district, at its annual meeting on March 30, 1905, it was
voted (1) that a new high school building be erected and
equipped; (2) that the undersigned be a committee to de-
termine the location thereof, purchase, or acquire by con-
demnation, for the district, the necessary land, erect and
equip a building, employ architects, agents and other neces-
sary assistants, to secure the erection and equipment of such
building; (3) the sum of ninety thousand dollars ($90,000)
was appropriated to secure the necessary land, erect and
equip the building; (4) that the indebtedness arising from
the erection and equipment of such building be funded at a
rate of interest not exceeding three and one-half per cent
per annum, and (5) that the district request the Cit}'- of
Concord to aid in funding this indebtedness, as provided
by law.
At the same meeting a like vote was passed, authorizing
the erection and equipment of a new eight-room building
at West Concord, appointing the same persons a committee
to locate, erect and equip such building, and appropriating
the sum of twenty-eight thousand dollars ($28,000) for
this purpose, and authorizing the committee to request the
City of Concord to aid in funding the indebtedness arising
from the erection and equipment of such building, as pro-
vided by law, at a rate not exceeding three and one-half
per cent per annum.
The district also at its annual meeting, March 29, 1906,
voted to erect and equip a new Manual Training school
building, appointed the same persons a committee to locate,
erect and equip such building, and the sum of thirty thou-
SCHOOL REPORT. 119
sand dollars ($30,000) was appropriated for this purpose ;
and authority was given to request the aid of the City of
Concord, under the law, to fund the debt incurred in the
erection and equipment of such Training school building,
at a rate not exceeding three and one-half per cent per
annum.
At the annual meeting on March 29, 1906, the sum of
one thousand dollars ($1,000) was appropriated for the
completion and equipment of the West Concord school
building, in addition to the twenty-eight thousand dollars
($28,000) appropriated by the vote passed on June 1, 1905.
At the annual meeting on March 28, 1907, it was voted
to raise the sum of one thousand three hundred dollars
($1,300) to pay the commission on sale of bonds, issued for
the erection and equipment of the new High school and
West Concord school buildings, and six hundred dollars
($600) to pay the interest paid by the committee, in excess
of the interest realized in the sale of the bonds.
There is printed, as an appendix to this report, all votes
relating to the location, erection and equipment, respec-
tively, of the new High school. West Concord school and
Training s'chool buildings, including the appointment and
report of the special committee, appointed at the annual
meeting March 30, 1905, to ascertain and report upon the
Avants of the district, with respect to the erection of new or
the enlargement of existing school buildings.
There is also printed in the appendix to this report a de-
tailed and itemized statement of the treasurer of your com-
mittee, Dr. Charles R. Walker, showing receipts and ex-
penditures, with a certificate of the auditors of the district,
certifying the examination and approval of his accounts.
And, too, there is printed in the appendix to this report,
copies of the ordinances of the City of Concord, and the
contracts of the district, executed by your committee, with
respect to the bonded indebtedness created for the erection
and equipment of the new High school. West Concord school
and Training school buildings, — the indebtedness incurred

in the erection and equipment of the new High school and
West Concord school buildings, being provided for by the
bond issue of one hundred nineteen thousand dollars
($119,000), in accordance with the ordinance passed May
14, 1906, and the contract dated July 2, 1906, and the in-
debtedness incurred in the erection and equipment of the
new Manual Training school building being provided for
by the bond issue of thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) in
accordance with the ordinance passed May 13, 1907, and
the contract dated July 1, 1907.
In providing for these several new structures, for the
necessary increased accommodation of the district, after
securing locations that would best accommodate the school
population of the district, your committee sought to pro-
vide locations which would diminish as little as possible
the taxable property of the district, and in this respect w^e
have met with quite satisfactory results.
The new High school building lot is located upon the
westerly side of North Spring Street and consists of (1)
the old Training school lot, (2) the house lot of George A.
Brown, (3) the homestead of Mary A. Craigue, and (4) a
small piece of land purchased of W. J. Fernald.
The sum of three thousand five hundred dollars
($3,500) was paid for the George A. Brown property, the
sum of three thousand dollars ($3,000) w^as paid for the
property of Mary A. Craigue — she reserving the right to
reside in the house during her life — and the sum of two
hundred and seventy-five dollars ($275) was paid for the
land purchased of "W. J. Fernald.
The house upon the Brown lot was moved to another
location and thus continues taxable property.
The West Concord school is located westerly of the
former location of the West Concord school building, upon
a lot of land purchased of the City of Concord, in exchange
for the old West Concord schoolhouse and lot. This ex-
change of lots was ratified by the district at the annual
meeting of March 29, 1906.
SCHOOL REPORT. 121
The new Manual Training school is located upon the
easterly side of Rumford Street, westerly of and adjoin-
ing the High school lot.
This lot consists of the property purchased of C. C. Cur-
rier for four thousand dollars ($4,000), and that pur-
chased of Mrs. Gertrude L. Wilson for jfive thousand seven
hundred and fifty dollars ($5,750).
The house upon the Wilson lot was sold for five hundred
dollars ($500), and has been removed to another lot on the
same street, and retains its taxable quality.
The house upon the Currier lot was sold for one hundred
dollars ($100), and the old manual training building was
sold for the sum of one hundred dollars ($100).
It will thus be seen that the amount of property actually
removed from the taxable list is, fortunately, but compara-
tively small.
The architects employed to prepare plans and superin-
tend the construction of the High and Manual Training
school buildings were Hill & James of Boston. The con-
tractors for the construction of the High school building
were the Hutchinson Building Company, who were the
lowest bidders for the work.
The J. H. Mendell Company of ]\Ianchester were the com-
petitive bidders, who secured the contract for the con-
struction of the Manual Training school building.
Randlett & Griffin of Concord were the architects and
contractors for the construction of the West Concord
school building, and D. W. Sullivan was employed, by the
committee, to superintend the construction of the work
as it progressed.
The entire cost of the construction and equipment of the
High school building, including cost of lot and grading
thereof, and interest paid on account of funds borrowed,
during construction, was ninety-three thousand three hun-
dred and eight dollars and ninety-five cents ($93,308.95),
and the amount received for appropriation and interest
and commission specially voted by the city, ninety-three
1^2 CITY OF CONCORD.
thousand three hundred fifty-one dollars and nineteen
cents ($83,351.19), leaving a balance of forty-two dollars
and twenty-four cents ($42.24), as shown by the treas-
urer's account, in the appendix to this report.
The entire cost of the Manual Training school building,
including cost of lot and grading thereof, was thirty thou-
sand six hundred twenty-three dollars and fifteen cents
($30,623.15), and the amount received, including appro-
priation and money received on sale of the Currier and
Wilson houses, and old Manual Training school building,
was thirty thousand seven hundred dollars ($30,700),
leaving a balance of seventy-six dollars and eighty-five
cents ($76,85), as shown by the treasurer's report in the
appendix.
The entire cost of the West Concord school building, in-
cluding cost of grading and interest paid on money during
construction, was twenty-nine thousand and ten dollars
($29,010), as shown in the treasurer's acGount in the ap-
pendix.
Notwithstanding the depressed condition of the bond
market, at the time your committee was compelled to real-
ize money to meet the expenditures incident to the erection
and equipment of these various school buildings, we were
fortunate in making sale of the bonds of the tw^o issues at
par, paying only one per cent commission, for the sale of
seventy-five thousand dollars ($75,000), and one and one-
fourth per cent commission for the sale of 44,000, of the
first issue, and disposing of the second issue, the thirty
thousand dollars ($30,000) for the Manual Training build-
ing at par without expense.
The bonds of the second issue, the thirty thousand dol-
lars ($30,000), were purchased by the several bante of this
city at par.
Your committee, therefore, succeeded in this advan-
tageous disposition of the bonds of these two issues, al-
though they bear only the rate of three and one-half per
cent per annum. Other municipalities in New England
SCHOOL REPORT. I'I'S
having credit similar to that of Concord were at the same
time unable to sell their three and one-half per cent bonds,
in several instances, without a five per cent discount.
The several buildings, respectively, as completed, with
their equipment, were turned over to the Board of Educa-
tion for the district by your committee, and the same, we
are confident, will reasonably supply the wants of the dis-
trict, and the work assigned to your committee thus having
been completed, we hereby respectfully submit the same
for your consideration and approval.

REPORT OF SPECIAL COMMITTEE ON THE WANTS OF THE
DISTRICT ; ACCEPTANCE THEREOF AND VOTE APPROVING
RECOM MENDATIONS.
In investigating and considering the matter assigned to
us, we have recognized the fact that ideal school facilities
cannot be provided at an expense which would be war-
ranted by the general condition of the district ; and we have
therefore eliminated all cases of inadequate school accom-
modations which are not such as to imperatively demand
present attention.
The school accommodations at the Walker school and the
Tahanto school, particularly the former, are inadequate, but
we think the changes and additional buildings hereinafter
recommended, together with a parochial school at the north
end, which our investigation leads us to consider a prob-
ability of the near future, will rectify those difficulties.
142 CITY OP CONCORD.
High School. — We find that inadequate school accommo-
dation exists in the High school. The remedies for this in-
adequacy, suggested to us in two public hearings which we
have given, as well as through the press, are (1) refusing
to take tuition pupils; (2) dividing the school by putting a
part of it into the Chandler building; (3) building one or
more additions to the present High school building ; (4)
building a new High school building and using the present
building for other school purposes.
After considering the several remedies suggested we have
concluded that (1) would not afford adequate relief; that
(2) is impracticable for several reasons, one being that the
Chandler building will soon (probably this fall) be needed
for a schoolhouse ; that (3) is inadvisable because it will cost
about $60,000 to build and furnish the additions required
and when that is done two wants will remain unsatisfied,
namely, a suitable assembly hall and class rooms of suitable
size. It should also be stated as a reason against the adop-
tion of (3) that it will not relieve the congestion in other
schools — a result which we hope to attain by the plan here-
inafter suggested.
Having been constrained to dismiss remedies 1, 2 and 3,
we were brought to a consideration of 4, — the building of a
new High school building, the present building to be used
for other school purposes — and have found that the pres-
ent High school building can be advantageously used for a
central ninth grade school, thereby relieving the congestion
at several schools, especially the Walker.
We find that a new High school building, in all respects
adequate to accommodate five hundred (500) pupils, can be
erected on the lot hereinafter specified, and furnished, at a
total expense not exceeding $90,000; and we recommend
the erection of such a building, the same to be built upon
the general plan of the new Nashua and Dover High schools,
said plans to be modified and changed to suit our require-
ments.
A consideration of the available sites for such a building
SCHOOL REPORT. 143
has led iis to the conclusion that the North Spring Street
lot, belonging to the district, where the Manual Training
school now stands, together with two additional lots, is the
most desirable site, eveiything considered, for the new High
school, the erection of which we recommend. We there-
fore recommend that the district acquire the necessary land
on North Spring Street and erect said new High school
building on said North Spring Street lot.
West Concord ScJiool. — We find that inadequate school
accommodations exist at West Concord, and we recommend
an exchange of the present lot and building with the water
department (Concord Water Works) for a lot of suitable
size fronting on Quaker Street and running northerly to
Hutchins Street, out of the Hutchins property, so called,
in accordance with authority given water commissioners by
the city, and the erection on said new lot of an eight-room
brick school building, at a cost,, with furniture, not to ex-
ceed $28,000, to be built according to the general plan of
the new Bethel, Vt., school, but enlarged so as to give class
rooms suitable for forty-five or fifty pupils, and otherwise
modified to meet our requirements.
We transmit herewith general plans of the school build-
ings, the plans of which we have herein referred to, namely,
the new Nashua High school, the new Dover High school
and the Bethel, Vt., school.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES R. CORNING,

BOARD OF HEALTH REPORT.
To the City Council:
The board of health submits the following report of the
work of the sanitary department for the year ending De-
cember 31, 1907 :
This board met and organized under the new ordinance,
February 25, 1907. Regular monthly and several special
meetings have been held since that date.
There has been no serious epidemic or call for unusual
action on the part of the board, although each month brings
its quota of routine matters to our conference.
At our March meeting Dr. Charles Duncan of the New
Hampshire Laboratory of Hygiene was appointed milk in-
spector at a salary of $300 per annum. He proceeded to
take up the duties of his office at once.
At a special meeting called later in March, "regulations
for the sale and care of milk" were adopted. The regula-
tions in the form of an ordinance have been endorsed by
you, and go into effect January 1, 1908.
"We feel that, working along the lines of reform outlined
in this ordinance, the milk inspector will be able to bring
about some very beneficial improvements in the storing
and marketing of one of our most important food products.
The board wishes to express its appreciation of Doctor
Duncan's tireless efforts in support of the milk ordinance.
We also commend the tactful and enthusiastic manner with
which he has proceeded to take up his work.
For details, please refer to the milk inspector's report,
which we transmit herewith.
Early in the fall some regulations in regard to vaccin-
ation of school children were adopted. These regulations
are such as seem reasonable and proper to the board and
HEALTH DEPARTMENT. 187
have resulted in materially reducing the number of un-
vaccinated school children in all the wards of the city. This
is especially true of the so-called central wards.
We consider this a matter of great importance and wish
to impress upon the community how harmless vaccination
is, and how truly wonderful is the protection it atfords
from smallpox.
During the past year a large number of cases of diph-
theria have been thrown upon our department for support
and treatment during quarantine. There is no way to es-
cape our responsibility toward these people, and our ap-
propriation suffers accordingly. Antitoxin and skilled
nursing come high, but are indispensable in these cases.
Mr. Palmer, the sanitary officer, has shown the same high
grade of executive ability as usual in the discharge of his
duties and the board wishes to express thanks to him for so
heartily cooperating with it in the interests of public health.
You are referred to the report of the sanitary officer for
vital statistics, statement of expenditures and detailed ac-
count of the routine work of the department.
This report is hereby made a part of our own and trans-
mitted herewith.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES R. CORNING, Chairman, ex-officio,
CHARLES H. COOK,
GEORGE COOK,

HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF SANITARY OFFICER.
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen: Herewith is submitted the annual report
of the sanitary officer covering the work of the health de-
partment for the year ending December 31, 1907 :
Mortality.
During the year there were four hundred and twenty-
eight deaths, compared with four hundred and twenty-four
in 1906. The death-rate, exclusive of deaths of non-resi-
dents in public institutions and still births, was 15.2, com-
pared with 15 in 1906. Transfer permits were issued for
the removal of one hundred and fifty-four dead bodies for
interment in other places. Seventy-seven bodies were
brought from other places to this city for interment.
Contagious Diseases.
Two hundred and eighteen cases of contagious diseases
were reported to this department during the year, with
three deaths, compared with one hundred and seventy-five
cases, with six deaths in 1906.
There were sixty-three cases of diphtheria, with two
deaths. Oftentimes the physican is not called in the early
stages of the disease, when the administration of antitoxin
would almost invariably save the patient, but if given later
in the disease the same results could not be obtained. Nearly
all the physicians of the city now use antitoxin in the treat-
ment of diphtheria, and the health department furnishes it
to those who are unable to pay for it.
There were twentv-six cases of scarlet fever with one fa-
HEALTH DEPARTMENT. 189
tality. This is the first death from this disease in eight
years.
There were eleven cases of typhoid fever and one hundred
and eighteen eases of measles with no fatalities from either
disease. This is a record that is encouraging.
Fumigation.
The cost of fumigation supplies for the year was $67.18.
Formaldehyde gas liberated by potassium permanganate
was used through the year with good results. A table show-
ing the amount of fumigation done will be found elsewhere
in this report.
Vaccination.
As a rule the vaccination law has been complied with by
the school children, though there are still a few who are not
registered at this office. No child is entitled to attend
school in the city without a vaccination certificate bearing
the seal of the board of health.
Rabies.
During the latter part of the year several dogs were re-
ported as acting strangely and two were killed by a veter-
inary surgeon. It was decided by the board of health that
all dogs suspected of being infected with the rabies should
be reported to this office. One dog was reported as having
bitten a human being and on investigation this was found
to be true. The dog was at once killed and the head sent
to the laboratory at Hanover for analysis. The diagnosis
was reported as positive and at once the person who had
been bitten commenced taking the Pasteur treatment. Al-
most all authorities are agreed that the Pasteur treatment,
if applied within a week after a bite by a rabid animal, will
almost surely prevent the development of the disease. Dogs
suspected of being bitten by the rabid dog were placed in
quarantine.
190 city of concord.
Milk Licenses.
Any person selling milk, skim milk or cream in the city
of Concord must hold a milk license issued from the office of
the health department. These licenses are issued annually
in the month of May. Persons selling only the products of
their own cows receive a free license upon application to
that effect, and those buying milk and then re-selling it
pay the sum of two dollars. One hundred and seventy-
seven milk licenses were issued in 1907, and the sum of
$193.50 was collected.
Inspection of Milk Farms.
In company with the milk inspector I commenced an in-
spection of milk farms to aid the dairymen in preparing to
comply with the new milk ordinance, which goes into ef-
fect January j&rst. During the summer and fall twenty-
nine milk farms were inspected and suggestions made to
the owners for the better sanitary condition of the barns
and greater cleanliness in the care of the milk.
In many instances the dairymen only need to have their
attention called to the changes and improvements needed in
their methods, and many have promised changes for the
better care of the barn and milk room.

Plumbing.
I made water tests of all plumbing after plans were sub-
mitted and permits issued. In several instances pepper-
mint tests were made of old work. As a rule the plumbing
ordinance was complied with. The old plumbing in eight
of the buildings at St. Paul 's School was tested and a num-
ber of defects found. The result was that the plumbing
was repaired and the buildings placed in sanitary condition.

REPORT OF MILK INSPECTOR.
Since March, appointed by the Board of Health with the
specific purpose of securing for Concord a cleaner milk,
inspection of milk has been in charge of the present of-
ficer.
It was thought that little fault could be found with the
quality of the city's milk supply, if inspection looking to
the proper care in raising and handling this product could
be carried out.
' After careful consideration by the city government a
milk ordinance recommended by the Board of Health was
passed, to go into operation January 1, 1908. Any work
looking to cleaner milk without this regulation seemed
quite impossible, which facts seem borne out by investiga-
tion.
Concord receives her milk from some 150 farms within
a radius of a dozen miles of the city, although not more
than fifty are run strictly as milk farms for the profit of
this product alone, the rest raising milk to help out other
industry.
As far as possible these farms have been visited, the con-
ditions noted and the records are kept on file at the office
of the Board of Health. Attention is paid to the buildings,
to the stock, to the care and manner of housing same, to
the care of manure, to the drainage, to the water supply,
and especially to the manner of caring for milk and milk
utensils. The records show that many changes must be
brought about before the city is assured a clean milk.
Such care as the average housewife gives our food is the
care the consumer has the right to demand from the farmer
who raises his milk. That care is clearly lacking in very
many instances.
From the farms the milk is retailed to the stores and
homes by some forty-eight men. These men handle any-
where from forty to two hundred quarts of milk each day
and obtain it from one, two, three or more farms. These

men are held responsible for the purity and cleanliness of
the product. The city is supplied with a night and morn-
ing milk, not more than twenty hours old, and the care
necessary to keep it clean would seem easy and inexpensive.
Examinations of the milk samples collected from the
teams on the street showed that while the milk was rich in
natural products and under such laws as an inspector has
to work was well up in fats and solids, yet it was taken in
many instances from dirty cans in unclean teams without
ice or other evidence that the milk man desired to give this
important food proper care.
The stores of our city need little care to assure us a
clean milk. They for the most part use very little, one can
a day, and this is bought from these men who deliver to
the homes with but few exceptions. While in their con-
trol at the store the milk is kept in ice chests with the
meats, butter and other perishable food, so little complaint
can be offered on this score.
During the coming year under the new ordinance much
good can be accomplished and various evils corrected. With
a keen regard for the relation of milk to the public health,
inspections under its rulings assures the consumer a nat-
ural milk at a temperature below fifty degrees free from
dirt and such germs as may or may not be responsible for
disease. This we hope to bring about by visits to the farms,
offering suggestions here, and at times making demands, the
object sought being to bring the poorest farms up to the
level of the best farms in the city, for there are farms now
doing all things within the requirements of the ordinance,
and these same farms claim to be getting a comfortable
profit from raising milk.
Other things being equal, and assuming that all milk of-
fered for sale received equal care within the requirements
of the ordinance, a bacteriological examination of the milk
taken from the teams would show them of even cleanliness.
If they are not, the cause of the dirty milk will usually
be found in lack of care in handling by others before or af-

fer leaving the farm and the cause may be looked up and
remedied.
The spirit of the farmer toward inspection is all that may
be desired. Many changes have been made under Board of
Health directions, and others are to follow. The ice prob-
lem promises to be the hardest problem the milk men will
have to contend with, but he will soon learn to solve it and
appreciate the value of this preservative to add profit to
the business.

Milk Inspector.

REPORT OF CITY ENGINEER.
* City Engineer's Office,
Concord, N. H., December 31, 1907.
To the City Council:
The fifteenth annual report of the city engineer is here-
with submitted, showing the expenditures and operations
of the engineering department for the year ending Decem-
ber 31, 1907.
The requirements of the various city departments, to-
gether with the demands of many citizens for varied infor-
mation, have kept the engineering department very busy
during the past season, but the work has been carried on
with a small force.
The expenses of this department were as follows:
Paid engineer and assistants, $2,611.81
for supplies, 160.23
car fares and livery, 66.79
postage, 3.62
repairs, • 31.31
express, 3.75
telegrams, .89
trucking, .75
telephone rental and tolls, 16.89
Total expenditure, $2,896.04
Appropriation, $2,900.00
Expended, 2,896.04
Balance December 31, 1907, $3.96
The employes of this department for the season were
Fred W. Lang, assistant engineer, and Clarence A. Little,
rodman.
CITY engineer's REPORT. 223
Assessors' Maps.
An appropriation of $500 was made for this work, and
the field work for Wards 4, 5 and 6 was practically com-
pleted in the summer.
Plans of the above wards will probably be ready for the
assessors about April 1, 1908.
We have not attempted to settle any disputes as to
boundary lines between different owners, but have taken
the fences as they stood, or in the , absence of definite
bounds, have taken the deeds and put on the lines called
for in them.
The following were employed on the field work : Merrit
C. Huse, in charge; Worthen J. Davis, Lloyd Dame and
Howard Morrison, as assistants.
There was expended for field work and supplies the
following amounts :
Paid for labor, $195.11
supplies, 64.05
freight and express, 1.17
deed references, .75
Total expenditure, $261.08
Appropriation, $500.00
Expended, 261.08
Unexpended balance, $238.92
New High and Manual Training Schools.
Plans for the grading of the lots, retaining walls, curb-
ing, steps and entrances were made and the work done un-
der the supervision of this department.
The grading could not be fully completed, owing to the
old house in the northeasterly corner of the lot occupied
by the High school, but when this building is removed and
the grading finished it will add materially to the appear-
ance of the premises.
224 city of concord.
Town Lines.
The line between the city and the town of Bow was
perambulated in company with Mr. Frank White, the agent
for Bow.
The line between Hopkinton and Concord was peram-
bulated with Mr. A. J. Boutwell and Mr. E. F. Dustin, two
of the selectmen of Hopkinton.
The bounds were found intact on both lines, and the
marks thereon were renewed in accordance with the law
covering this work.
Park Department.
Lines and grades were given for the extension of the
fence at White Park, and the lines determined around the
addition to Rollins Park.
Highway Department.
Lines and grades have been given for sidewalk con-
struction, concreting North State and North Main streets,
macadamizing North State Street near Blossom Hill Cem-
etery, the widening of the bridge across Turkey River near
St. Paul 's School, and all other work where requested.
Some time was spent on surveys and profiles for the
Pembroke road, but this work was done under contract and
the final grades were fixed by the state engineer, under
whose direction the road was constructed.
Fire Department.
The plans showing the fire alarm boxes and the location
of all hydrants, in the city proper, were corrected to date,
blue prints made and delivered to the chief engineer of
that department.
Water- Works.
A plan of Penaeook Lake and the property adjacent to
it was completed and turned over to the superintendent of
the works.
CITY engineer's REPORT. 225
Building Permits.
In company with the chief engineer of the fire depart-
ment, I have attended twenty-one hearings, upon petitions
to build or repair wooden buildings.
We have granted nineteen petitions and denied two.
Cemeteries.
No new plots have been laid out during the past season.
The record of lot sales have been kept up and lot trans-
fers recorded when possible.
The work on a contour map of the new portion of Blos-
som Hill Cemetery has not been advanced, as we had no
time to devote to it, but hope to be able to report progress
the coming season.
SEV\rERS.
Considerable time was spent on construction during the
past season, principally upon the five-foot trunk sewer
across the Stickney property, easterly of the Boston &
Maine Railroad tracks.
There remains to be built 245 feet of five-foot sewer and
230 feet of forty-two inch sewer to reach North Main
Street, which should be completed early the coming season.
This sewer when completed and connected with North
Main Street sewer, near Hall's Court, will afford an ample
outlet for the territory contributory to it, embracing that
portion of the city between Park, Green, Center, Pine,
School, Liberty, Auburn, Franklin, Rumford, Beacon,
North State, Pearl and North Main streets, and is a start
on the relief of this much overloaded portion of the sewer-
age system. The work should be carried forward as rap-
idly as possible to relieve the more seriously congested
sewers in the northerly and westerly sections of this dis-
trict, and to prevent further inconvenience and damage to
residents and the property situated in the flooded portions.
This work calls for the expenditure of a considerable
sum of money, but the plans for proposed improvements
15

should soon be carried out for the preservation of the sani-
tary condition of this district, and your attention is again
called to the present serious defects in this portion of the
sewer precinct.

maintenance in the different sewer precincts have been as
follows.

REPORT OF HYDRANT COMMIS-
SIONERS.
Concord, N. H., December 31, 1907.
To the City Council:
The Board of Hydrant Commissioners met on January
17, 1907, and unanimously recommended placing hydrants
at the following locations, and a letter covering the loca-
tions given was mailed to the Hon. Solon A. Carter, presi-
dent of the water board:
1. Park Street, on east line of St. Paul's Church lot.
2. Montgomery Street, 250 feet easterly from North
State Street.
3. North Spring Street, at Maple Street.
4. Lyndon Street, east side, 20 feet southerly from the
southerly line of Abbott Street.
5. West Street, near South Main Street, move present
hydrant westerly to the westerly line of Mr. Brooks' lot.
6. West Street, move hydrant near Badger Street east-
erly to a point midway between Morton Street and Badger
Street.
7. West Street, set hydrant at the northeasterly corner
of Mills Street.
8. Dunklee Street, 150 feet southerly from We^t Street.
9. Dunklee Street, at northwesterly corner of Allison
Street.
10. Broadway, on south line of H. H. INIetcalf 's lot.
11. Broadway, 450 feet southerly from Stone Street.
12. Broadway, on northerly line of McKinlej^ Street.
13. Blake Street, on the easterly line of J. D. Bridge's lot.
14. Wall Street, near northeasterly corner of Elm Street.
15. Concord Street, near South Street.
HYDRANT COMMISSIONERS. 233
16. Church Street, move hydrant near Lyndon Street
easterly to the easterly line of Lyndon Street.
17. Railroad Street, midway between Hill's Avenue and
Chandler Street.
18. Ridge Road, 250 feet southerly from the southerly
line of Forrest Street.
19. Stone Street, 300 feet easterly from Bow Street.
Later in the season a hydrant was located on Maple
Street (Ward 1) near Pleasant Street.
All the hydrants above mentioned were set during th"e
past season.
Since our last report we have been called to mourn the
loss of one of our members by death, Mr. V. C. Hastings,
who for many years gave his best efforts to the water- works
as its superintendent, and his labors with this board were
in the interests of the city and its fire protection furnished
by the water- works system.
His successor in office, Mr. Percy R. Sanders, took up the
work left by Mr. Hastings, and has worked in harmony
with the other members of this board in their efforts to
extend and improve the hydrant service throughout the
city.
Respectfully submitted,

is hoped that in the coming year we can put up a suitable
entrance, and from year to year extend the fence along
Center Street to High Street. The playground has re-
ceived one hundred and fifty loads of grade and more will
be needed each year until the ground becomes firm and
stable. The superintendent and his assistants have, during
the year, removed a large number of moth nests from the
trees in all the parks.
In Rollins Park the work has been carried on as usual
and large beds of rhododendrons and kalmias and one rose
bed have been put in during the year. During the winter
the buck escaped from the deer enclosure and disappeared,
but late in the fall another one was received from Corbin
Park. They seem very tame and afford a great deal of
interest to those who visit the park. Some lumber has been
cut from the grounds and dead wood has been cleaned out.
The work on the smaller parks and enclosures has been
carried on by the superintendent, and each year sees a
marked growth in their development. Plans have been
secured for the development of the park in rear of the
court house, which the commissioners will hope to carry
out this year.

PUBLIC LIBRARY.
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES.
To the City Council of Concord, N. H.:
The report of the librarian of the public library, here-
with submitted, shows somewhat in detail the work this
department has done during the past year. Under the
circumstances, the results have been highly satisfactory and
seem to prove that no appropriation of the public money
of the same amount has been attended with more useful or
more permanent benefits. The work the library is doing
is one that the city government cannot overlook in the per-
formance of its duty of promoting the public welfare. Its
pressing needs are manifest; expert and careful examina-
tion is unnecessary to disclose them; and they have often
been referred to in these reports. Time serves merely to
emphasize the fact of their existence. The situation is
constantly growing worse; and it must continue to do so
while the policy of confining the library in its present
cramped and inadequate quarters is pursued.
Respectfully submitted,
REUBEN E. WALKER,
President Board of Trustees.
REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN FOR 1907.
To the Board of Trustees of the Concord Public Library:
Gentlemen : A public librarian, even if she were sworn
to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth
about the year's work, would not load her annual report
with statistics which register neither her sins of omission
and commission, nor the finer issues of her work ; she would
bethink herself that the public is becoming more intelli-
gently aware that big figures do not mean exceptional out-
put of brawn and brains, and, conversely, that small re-
turns are not always the fault of feeble efforts. Yet it is
customary to give tabulated accounts, and as we have a
very good showing to make, in a year when we have done
nothing special to secure large totals, we gladly submit the
following figures:
The desk circulation of volumes taken home was 91,232,
which is 200 more than last year.
As there was no summer branch of the library this year,
and as by its omission we lost about 5,000 in circulation,
our gain over 1906 was made by steady custom at the main
building and by the returns from the five deposit stations.
This steady patronage is very different from the week-
end rushes of a dozen years ago. Indeed, the change in the
character of our custom is interesting to note. Because of
cheaper theaters and more of them, cheaper magazines and
more of them, trolley trips, Sunday excursions and the ten-
dency to spend spare time out of doors, persons employed
every week day do not now come, Saturday night, to get
their inevitable novel for Sunday. Furthermore, the read-
ing required of children in the public schools, by reducing
their book-hunger or their leisure, decimates their daily in-
vasion after school-hours for an Optic or a book about
Indians. Yet, though the rush of life tends to lessen the
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 245
reading habit, we have registered 745 new patrons this
year.
The opening of a subscription library by private enter-
prise on Main Street has taken away much of our call for
the six best-sellers; yet our statistics report that Concord
still reads of its public library books about 74 per cent, of
fiction. Another library may report that its public reads
stories only to the extent of 59 per cent. But circulations
are not faily comparable, while one library classes "The
Jungle," "Our Little Swedish Cousin" and "Bullet and
Shell" as fiction, and another library puts the first of these
books in sociology, the second in travel and the third in
Civil War history. From libraries which have made anal-
yses of their statistics, it is ascertained that a very small
per cent, of card-holders are responsible for a large per
cent, of the fiction read.
We are pretty well satisfied with the variety of calls made
by our customers. What we do not feel satisfied with is
the large number of citizens who do not come to the library
for any book. Concord may some day wake up to find itself
papered with dodgers and posters spreading broadcast in-
formation as to our resources and an invitation to avail
oneself thereof.
Our other statistics besides those of circulation are as
follows :
Number of volumes added during 1907, 900
Of these:
New volumes, 538
Bindery, 107
Duplicates, 57
Replacements, 198
Worn out, 450
Net gain, 450
Number of volumes now in library, 29,078
You will note that the net gain in volumes was very
small; that was due to two causes which should be con-
246 CITY OF CONCORD.
sidered sufficient — lack of money and lack of room. The
city appropriation was not reduced, and we have no com-
plaint to make in that direction ; but this year some of the
$5,000 was spent for two improvements, electric lights and
a telephone. As our shelves are crowded, it seemed sen-
sible to pause in acquiring volumes long enough to install
these modern facilities. Your Board has always given kind
and prompt assent to any suggestion tending to make the
library service better for the public and easier for the
staff. Certainly patrons come more frequently in the even-
ing to reading and reference rooms because these are not
so dim as they were, and the staff no longer dread the task
of lighting up, or of hunting up references after dark
in magazines stored in the basement. The telephone is an
ever-present help, and our fear that it would be more of
a bother than a comfort was unfounded.
Cautious outlay seemed desirable until we knew how these
two items of expense, lights and telephone, would affect our
expenses for the year ; hence the chief reason of our reduc-
tion in buying. You may wonder that I do not mention as
a reason for our purchasing fewer, the added cost of
books, the price of even new novels having risen, in some
cases, from $1.50 to $1.75. But this increase in the popular
acquisitions only forces the librarian to even up her outlay
by buying standard works from a second-hand catalogue —
Halliwell-PhiUips' Shakespeare, for example; and by wait-
ing for some desirable books till they are listed in a mark-
down sale — ^Moncure D. Conway's Autobiography, for in-
stance. Our criterion in buying is well described by an-
other librarian, who reports of his book committee: ''They
try to select from the great mass of new publications, such
as would be of interest to the general reader and of prac-
tical value to the student, and to supply older publications
of value which the library was found to lack. ' '
Besides the check to our purchasing imposed by finan-
cial prudence, there was felt as never before, lack of shelf
room. I do not wish my reports to become annual mes-
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 247
sages of but a single note, yet you should be told that we
have been obliged to run shelves across all the windows of
our upper stack room, thus shutting out air and light, and
that we are filling the basement with books taken from the
first floor stack room.
In no previous year have we discarded dilapidated vol-
umes so freely, but after so ridding the shelves, still the
wonder grows how one small library can hold a few more
rows. The average circulation of a book in publisher's
binding is estimated to be only fifty times before it needs
rebinding; therefore that book cannot be long-lived, and
discarding it becomes inevitable. The library does not
really suffer thereby, for, as the Salem librarian says : "Vol-
umes which have outlived their usefulness take the room
needed for new publications ; an antiquated book is often
a positive disadvantage in a popular circulating library, as
borrowers may read it without realizing that the informa-
tion it contains is completely out of date."
Please understand that our affection for this Fowler
building is profound and unqualified. We bridle with
pleasure when the librarian of a recent big western Car-
negie structure writes: "Your library from the picture
looks so comfortable and usable ; it seems a pity that so
many of the modern libraries look so glaringly and Un-
comfortably new." We like it when visitors step into the
sunny interior of this centrally located building and gaz-
ing at its bee-hive aspect of varied interests going on in
this and that small corner say, ' ' It does not look like an in-
stitution, but a social center." Several wants remain, how-
ever, such as a children's room, desirable for sound reasons
and not urged because the librarian has a sentimental wish
to run a kindergarten or a reformatory. In previous re-
ports our needs have been dwelt upon, and there is noth-
ing further to say except that in a few years we shall have
to rent storage room for our less-used books.
You can readily see that we have been willing to relieve
the congestion of this building by starting deposit stations
248 CITY OF CONCORD.
in remote parts of the city. Mast Yard was the last lo-
cality to establish a fortnightly exchange of a boxful of
books, and this was undertaken at the unselfish instigation
of Mrs. P. W. Richards, wife of the station agent at Mast
Yard, and the books are under her excellent care.
The East Concord delivery was suspended in December,
as Mrs. G-race Farnum did not wish to continue her two-
years' oversight of the books. It will be difficult to find
another custodian who will equal her in accuracy and ami-
ability, but we are on the lookout for the right place in
Ward 2 to which to commit our books, for the use of them
has been encouragingly large and the appreciation of the
privilege ample. Besides continuing the boxes to Penacook
and West Concord, we now fill three boxes twice a year for
the matrons at St. Paul's School to charge out to their
large force of employees.
In hot weather, when residents are away, our shelves
become unusually crowded, but this year we somewhat re-
lieved that condition by featuring the vacation privilege,
by which eight books could be charged to a person for all
summer and taken to beach or mountains.
The exhibits in our School Street hall have been especially
good the past year, including some of much local interest,
such as Dr. Frederick L. Hill's on the "Prevention and
Cure of Tuberculosis," and the convincing display from
the N. H. Agricultural College relative to the ' ' Spread and
Check of the Gypsy and Brown-tail Moths. ' ' The last four
exhibits which have come from the Library Art Club have
been photographs of Paris, Japan, Egypt, and Sicily. It is
delightful to have borrowers who have come in for books
linger over these pictures, pointing out places and saying,
"I was there or there."
We had the pleasure of entertaining the New Hampshire
Library Association when that body met in this building in
November. Such a live conference leaves it an open ques-
tion whether it is more blessed to get from some one else or
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 249
to pass along to somebody else, a helpful suggestion in li-
brary work.
At the desire of the president of the "Woman's Club, we
have arranged a hall-nook with chairs and light, and we
place there each month reading matter pertaining to sub-
jects suggested by the club program or by a civic meeting,
such as Forestry, Juvenile Courts, The Town Beautiful,
etc., etc. This Fowler building has become a meeting place
of new interests since the directors of the Shakespeare room
have allowed its fortnightly use by the scientific and lit-
erary departments of the Woman's Club. The end and aim
of a public library has been said to be the dissemination of
ideas among men ; but judging from the clubs which gather
under our roof, this library will cause a dissemination of
ideas among women.
It was stated above that our summer branch was omitted
this year; this was because we did not know how our ex-
penses were coming out and because our spare hand who
assists in this work was absent in the West. Omitting the
hot, hard afternoons at the summer station made it possible
to try a vacation story -hour, however, and once a week dur-
ing July and August the librarian read aloud good stories
to as many boys and girls as could be seated in the Refer-
ence room. If the little audience enjoyed the session as
much as did the reader, well and good. On two mornings
Miss lyla Chamberlin kindly relieved the librarian as en-
tertainer.
The assistants have served cheerfully and faithfully and
as another librarian puts it, ''the record of work accom-
plished speaks for itself in commendation of the efficiency
of the staff. ' ' Though there is no ordained division of la-
bor among our staff and though each young lady helps any-
where about the building and in any way she can, the work
has naturally arranged itself so that Miss Brown supervises
the reference department. Miss Dennett the desk circula-
tion and Miss Clarke the branch boxes. Miss Crowell is

now on her third year as our extra helper, and we could not
get along without her assistance.
The days at the library have become increasingly wear-
ing to the assistants because duties have grown much more
complex. Boxes for the exchange of books arrive very
often ; mending yearly becomes more incessant ; new maga-
zines to be cased now arrive by scores; telephone calls for
information break in upon seated work; the doing away
with red tape and the fitting of regulations to the exigencies
of each borrower, demand increasing tact and judgment,
and zealous oversight is needed in a dozen ways where
formerly care was required in only one direction. The li-
brarian can render now less manual help to the assistants
because she is more absorbed in questions of administration,
in inter-library work, in the perusal of mail, clearance lists
and book reviews, and in ordering, classifying, cataloguing,
etc.
The only work we were able to simplify during the year
has been that of furnishing their supplementary reading to
the pupils who flock in after school hours. We have placed
these volumes on open shelves where the scholar can look
them over and select the book which looks inviting to his
particular temperament. Each child, in certain grades, is
required to read four books a year, but we know that hun-
dreds of boys and girls will have read thrice that number
because they became interested in this array of wholesome
reading from actually handling it and not merely from
hearing an adult say he liked it when he was young.
Professor Griggs said here last fall that no one ever ex-
hausted his opportunities. If that is true of an institution
as well as of an individual, perhaps this library can think
up some way by which to have the glory of going on in
its work. But as there seems no roseate prospect, let me
read a letter written exactly fifty years ago by Parker Pills-
bury, so that we can thrill a little at the vision splendid
which this city department once seemed to a poor boy, Mr.
Pillsbury wrote in 1857 :
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 251
"One thing I am delighted to know, and that is, we are
to have a Library, at least nominally free. It makes me
sometimes sigh to think how I used to long for the golden
advantages now enjoyed by the rising generation. I have
now to do the double work of youth and manhood. I have
to educate myself in the morning and do my day's work in
the afternoon. The first money I ever had went for a
newspaper that I might have something to read. I worked
hard chopping in the woods at $2.00 a week, going out be-
fore sunrise and returning by starlight. It made Jordan
a hard road to travel, I believe — but it was Jordan. Books
we had none and were both too poor and too pious to pur-
chase them, and so we had to cultivate our imagination, we
boys. When we were husking corn or doing some quiet
kind of work, we used to personate some characters agree-
able to us, and carry on conversations on all manner of
subjects, such as travels abroad, military achievements ; get-
ting most happily and advantageously married and settling
in life. Bad books and poor lectures would have been
worse for us. But then, we needed knowledge, facts in
history, science, philosophy, and these we could not get in
our conjurations.
**Now all these will be available through the Library;
and I only wish there was such a thirst for them as that we
should need the Maine liquor law to restrain the appetite.
But we are getting in a strange and sad way in this country
and another four years [remember he wrote this in 1857]
will bring revelations to make stout hearts tremble."
And we get another echo. from a library-less past in a
letter from a sister of the late Mason W. Tappan. She
wrote to a friend in 1850: "I return 'Consuelo' with
many thanks on my own account as well as that of several
other people who have read it. When you loan me books
that are books, you give not only a present but a perpetual
blessing. ' '
This public library, though only "marking time," as
252 CITY OF CONCORD.
Mayor Corning says, can at least help ambitious boys and
feed active feminine minds.
As usual, we have been favored with government docu-
ments, state and institutional reports, proceedings of local
societies, periodicals from church organizations and indi-
viduals, and we have received books and magazines from
both friends and strangers. Every now and then through
the year we have found ourselves blessed with fudge or
flowers, Christmas greens and potted plants, tickets to en-
tertainments and post-cards of libraries in other places,
with appreciative words or with patient silence — what form
of kindness have we not experienced at the hands of the
Concord public!
Respectfully submitted,
GRACE BLANCHARD,
Librarian.
HIGH\^AY DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF COMMISSIONER OF HIGH-
\^AYS.
To the City Council:
Gentlemen : With each succeeding year the amount of
work to be done in the highway department increases, and
the year 1907 was no exception. We all know that with
the growth in the use of the automobile there is a con-
stantly increasing demand not only for better country
roads, but for numberless small repairs on the streets in the
compact part of the city.
It is a fact that the appropriations for the highway de-
partment have not increased in the last fifteen years, but
during that time new streets have been accepted, new resi-
dence sections developed which always demand street im-
provement, and the work of the department has extended
in every direction. The care of the large mileage of coun-
try roads in winter brings a heavy expense, leaving nothing
to show in improvement, often rather the reverse. If
every demand for repair were attended to, the appropria-
tions would be exhausted before the summer was over,
leaving nothing for the care of ice and snow which might
come in December, or for unusual work, such as the cloud-
burst of last summer. Therefore, it is impossible on the
present appropriations to do only such work as requires
attention most, and the roads of Concord are in a condition
where it is impossible to improve them without a larger
amount of money.
The cloudburst of last summer cost the department over
$3,000, coming at a time when many of the streets had
been newly repaired and were in good condition for an-
254 CITY OF CONCORD.
other season. But the work had to be done over, and in
some cases it was impossible to put them back in as good
shape as they were originally.
During the summer the concreting of North State Street
from Court to Franklin was completed at an expense of
$4,507.84, which amount was paid into the city treasury by
Mr. J. Wesley Plummer, trustee. A section of North Main
Street from Warren to School was also concreted. On
North State Street the macadam was carried north about a
thousand feet from the entrance to Blossom Hill Cemetery,
and I would recommend continuing the work another year.
The macadam on the west side of South Main Street
from Freight to West is in bad condition and should be
repaired, and the Pleasant Street macadam needs re-
surfacing with trap rock.
The work of widening at St. Paul's School was not com-
pleted, owing to a delay in receiving the corrugated iron.
The new bridge beams were received, but the cold weather
made it impossible to get them in.
The Sewall's Falls and Pembroke bridges should both
be shingled next season; the Loudon, Federal and Horse
Hill bridges painted, and the Federal bridge re-planked.
The following shows the repairs on bridges in 1907.

Considerable more work was necessary on trees this year
than in 1906. All trees within the street limit were care-
fully inspected and the brown-tail moth nests removed dur-
ing the winter. When warm weather came and the moths
began eating the foliage it was necessary to spray some
trees, but the work which has been done this year and in
previous seasons has kept the pest from doing any serious
damage to our shade trees.
The usual work was done on catch basins, and the table
below shows the location, etc.

The mimber of new concrete walks laid was regulated by
the petitions granted, and the usual amount of old walks
were repaired. A larger number of old walks should be
repaired next season, for some of them have been in a
number of years and the amount appropriated for repairs
is small compared with the number of walks.
About the same amount of garbage as last year was col-
lected at a slight increase in cost, due to the necessity of
hauling farther and the increase in the price of teams
and men.
The sprinkling precinct was enlarged and a new sprinkler
purchased, making fourteen carts in service.
The relations of this department with the mayor, city
council and the various departments have been pleasant.

REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
To the Honorable Mayor and City Council:
I herewith submit for your consideration the following
report of the Fire Department for the year 1907 :
The department responded to 43 bell alarms and 200
still alarms.
In addition one fire occurred, entailing loss, for which
no alarm was given, details of which appear in this report
in the order of occurrence.

This report will be found to contain statements in detail
embracing the amount of expenditures, a complete roll of
the department, with residence and occupation of each
member, a record of all fires and alarms which have oc-
curred during the year and the causes thereof, as nearly as
could be ascertained, with the names of the owTiers or oc-
cupants and the value, loss, insurance and insurance recov-
ered in each case.
In some respects the fire record is similar to that for the
preceding year, inasmuch as the loss was not large and a
considerable portion of this was entailed by the destruction
of buildings far removed from the city proper and without
fire protection.
FIKE DEPARTMENT. 285
The apparatus is in good condition, the chemical engine,
Kearsarge and Eagle wagons having been thoroughly re-
paired, painted and varnished.
Five dozen service coats and one dozen Hilton couplings
were purchased during the year.
Five horses and two single harnesses were also pur-
chased.
Two horses died, two were sold and one placed on a farm,
conditionally.
The test of hose resulted in the condemning of 150 feet
and the laying aside for relining of 500 feet.
I respectfully recommend the purchase of at least 500
feet of hose during the coming year.
The fire alarm telegraph system is in good condition.
One box, one indicator and one mechanical tapper were
added to the system.
The indicator and tapper were located in the police sta-
tion, at the instance of the committee on lands and build-
ings, which adds one to the already long list of improve-
ments obtained through the efforts of that committee.
It will be necessary during the coming year- to renew the
elements of the storage battery.
The fact that but two sets of plates have been consumed
in twelve years makes the wisdom which guided the Fire
Department committee of 1896 in sanctioning the change
from gravity to storage battery very apparent.
Respectfully submitted,
W. C. GREEN,
Chief Engineer.

(bell metal), and one of 2,000 pounds (American steel).
There are also 16 mechanical tappers, 40 direct-action tap-
pers, one four-circuit repeater, and six indicators.
The battery consists of 238 storage battery cells for the
lines, and 46 open-circuit battery cells for other electrical
purposes.

Fire- Alarm Telegraph Company.
Directions for Giving an Alarm.
Above all things, keep cool.
To obtain the key to the box, break the glass in the key
box located beneath the alarm box.
31
322 CITY OP CONCORD.
In each box there is a small bell called a "tell-tale,"
designed expressly for the purpose of informing you
whether an alarm is being transmitted the instant you open
the door.
Open the box, and if this bell is not heard, pull down the
hook once only and let go.
But if this bell should be heard, it would indicate that
another box had been pulled, and it would be useless to
attempt to pull another until the one already pulled had
performed its mission.
Wait until 20 seconds have elapsed after the "tell-tale"
has stopped ringing, close the door, which will restore the
armature to the position it left when the door was opened.
Open the door, pull down the hook once only and let go.
Should there be no response, pull it again.
Then should there be no response, go to the next box.
Unless your presence is most urgently required at the
scene of the fire, remain at the box to direct the department.
Never open the box or touch anything pertaining to it
except in case of fire.
Never give an alarm for a fire seen at a distance.
Be reasonably sure that there is a fire before giving an
alarm.
Never give an alarm for a chimney fire unless there is
imminent danger of the building catching.

REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR.
To the City Council:
I respectfully submit the following report for the year
1907 :
On December 31, 1906, the following suits against the
city of Concord were pending in court : Concord Street
Railway v. Concord, an appeal taken by the Concord Street
Railway from an award of damages to it by the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen upon the laying out of a highway in
Penacook; Joseph Stichney v. Concord, a petition for an
abatement of taxes for the year 1900; Joseph Stichney v.
Concord, a petition for an abatement of taxes for the year
1901 ; Jeniiie P. Martin v. Concord, a suit to recover dam-
ages for injury to the plaintiff's real estate on the corner of
South State and Downing streets, which she claims has
been caused by the backing up of water and sewage by
reason of an insufficient and defective sewer ; Asa Emery v.
Concord, a suit to recover damages on account of a change
in grade on North State Street, at Willow Hollow, which
change in grade the plaintiff claims throws sand and water
on to his land and obstructs his driveway thereto ; James
Y. Gatcomh and George L. Theobald v. Concord, a suit in
Avhich the plaintiffs claimed thirty thousand dollars dam-
ages for injuries to a pacing mare called "Phalla," owned
by them, which they alleged she received on May 10, 1906,
on Fruit Street, by reason of a defective culvert in said
street.
In addition to the above suits, the claims of N. E. Martin
and his wife, Jennie P. Martin, for injuries received while
driving on one of our highways by reason, as they claim,
of a defective culvert, were pending against the city at the
beginning of the year, although no suits had been brought.
The cases of the Concord Street Railway, Joseph Stick-
ney and Jennie P. Martin have not been pressed by the
REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR. 343
plaintiffs and no progress has been made in them since my
last report.
The case of Asa Emery against the city of Concord,
which, at the time of my last report, was before the County
Commissioners, has been tried. The County Commissioners
awarded Mr. Emery one hundred and five dollars damages
and the costs of the proceeding.
After a thorough investigation of the facts in the case of
Gatcomb and Theobald against the city, I advised the city
government that in my opinion the city was liable for what-
ever damages Gatcomb and Theobald had sustained by rea-
son of the injury to the pacing mare Phalla. The pacing
mare Phalla was a very valuable mare and was, without
doubt, seriously injured. The only question to determine
seemed to be what was a fair amount to compensate the
plaintiffs. The plaintiffs finally offered to settle the case
for two thousand dollars. I took Mr. Theobald's deposition,
got statements from witnesses who knew Phalla before and
after the injury, and conferred with several veterinarians
in regard to the extent of the injury to Phalla and its prob-
able outcome. I placed all the information thus gained be-
fore the city government. The city government, after full
discussion, instructed me to settle the case. The case was
settled by the payment to the plaintiffs of the sum of two
thousand dollars.
The claims of N. E. Martin and his wife, Jennie P. Mar-
tin, above referred to, have been settled upon the recom-
mendation of the Committee on Accounts and Claims.
At the April term, 1907, of the Superior Court, Louis A.
Engel brought suit against the Boston & Maine Railroad and
the city of Concord on account of the change in grade of
North State Street in West Concord, claiming that such
change in grade resulted in damage to his property. This
ease has not yet come to trial, but I expect it will be dis-
posed of at the April term, 1908, of the Superior Court.
At the April term, 1907, of the Superior Court, the Con-
cord Iron and Metal Company, a partnership consisting of
344 CITY OF CONCORD.
H. Cohen and A. B. Marcus, doing business at No. 18
Water Street, applied to the court for an order directing
the city government to issue to them a license to deal in
junk. At the same term I made an application for an in-
junction to restrain the Concord Iron and IMetal Company,
H. Cohen and A. B. Marcus, from dealing in junk in the
city of Concord without a license. The questions involved
in both of the above proceedings were referred to Oscar L.
Young of Laconia, as master, to find the facts. The hear-
ing before Mr. Young did not proceed because certain ques-
tions of law with reference to the proceeding were raised
by me. Before these questions of law were transferred to
the Supreme Court, the Concord Iron and Metal Company,
H. Cohen and A. B. Marcus, were petitioned into bank-
ruptcy and consequently stopped doing business. The
above proceedings have therefore been dismissed.
At the October term, 1907, of the Superior Court, Caro-
lyn F. Stickney brought a petition against the city of Con-
cord for the assessment of damages on account of the laying
out and construction of a sewer from North Main Street
through her land to the river. At the time this sewer was
laid out, the Board of Mayor and Aldermen awarded her
three hundred dollars damages. She claims that this
amount is inadequate and brings this petition for an as-
sessment of damages by the court. This case has not yet
been heard but will probably be tried at the April term,
1908, of the Superior Court.
At the October term, 1907. John N. Lane brought a writ
of entry against the city, claiming that in the recent im-
provements on the road leading to St. Paul's School the
city has encroached upon and taken some of his land with-
out right. This case will probably be disposed of at the
April term, 1908, of the Superior Court.
At the April term, 1907. I brought suit for the Union
School District against W. R. Batchelder and H. 0. Marsh
to recover about eight hundred dollars, which had been
paid by the Union School District to the Marsh Coal Com-
REPORT OP CITY SOLICITOR. 345
pany for coal which had not been delivered to the district
by the company. This suit has been settled by the payment
to the Union School District of the full amount which it
had paid for coal which it had not received.
In April, 1907, the boats of the Woodsum Steamboat
Company, which operate on Lake Sunapee and have hereto-
fore been taxed in Sunapee, were taxed in Sunapee and also
in the city of Concord. A petition was brought by the
company to have the taxes assessed in Sunapee for the
year 1907 abated. The questions of law arising on this
petition are now being prepared to be transferred to the
Supreme Court. I have joined with the plaintiff in this
matter to maintain the position that the boats should be
taxed in Concord. If we are successful in this matter a
substantial sum will be added to the revenues of Concord.
I have, during the year, prosecuted many criminal cases
for the police department before the Police Court. I have
also given advice and assistance when required to the vari-
ous departments of the city government and to committees
and members of the City Council.
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMIS-
SIONERS.
Concord, N. H., January, 1908.
To the City Council of the City of Concord:
Your commissioners of cemeteries have but little to re-
port for the past year. The expenditures during the year
have been small, as the appropriations placed at our dis-
posal have prevented any permanent improvements.
The burials in the past year have been one hundred and
seventy (170) in Blossom Hill cemetery and seventeen (17)
in the Old North cemetery.
For the financial standing of the cemeteries we would
refer you to the report of the city treasurer.
The new granite building erected for a waiting room at
Blossom Hill was opened to the public on Memorial Day,
and we think has been fully appreciated by the large num-
ber of people visiting the cemetery.
We would again recommend that a small appropriation
be made for the employment of a competent landscape ar-
chitect to lay out the new section at Blossom Hill, which
was purchased a few years ago of Mr. Bradley, so that
when needed for new lots it may be ready for use. What-
ever sum you may place at our disposal will be expended,
we trust, in a manner that will merit your approval.

REPORT OF \^ATER COMMISSIONERS.
Office of the Board of Water Commissioners,
Concord, N. H., January 31, 1908.
To His Honor the Mayor and the City Council:
The Board of Water Commissioners respectfully sub-
mits the following report of the operations of this depart-
ment for the year 1907, accompanied by the detailed re-
ports of the superintendent and engineer of the pumping
station, which are made a part of this report.
By the death of V. C. Hastings, superintendent of the
system from its installation, the city has sustained the loss
of a zealous and efficient public servant, and the board the
services of a wise and conscientious adviser, counsellor and
friend.
We have caused to be spread upon the records of the
board an expression of our regard for the late superin-
tendent, and our appreciation of his valuable services, and
take this opportunity to supplement that action by this
acknowledgment of his faithful performance of the duties
of the position so long and acceptably filled.
Upon the death of Mr. Hastings, the board unanimously
promoted to the position of superintendent, Mr. Percy R.
Sanders, who for several years had served under the former
superintendent, and we have thus far had no occasion to
regret our action.
The report of the superintendent exhibits in detail the
work of the year in the reconstruction of the system.
Contracts have been made upon very favorable terms for
material with which to continue this work, and it is con-
fidently expected that the coming season will witness the
completion (substantially) of the work of substituting cast-
iron pipe of increased capacity for all the cement-lined
pipe of the original system.
WATER DEPARTMENT. 359
From time to time, the Board has acquired the title to
lands bordering upon Penacook Lake, with a view to the
protection of the source of our supply from pollution.
We now own more than three hundred acres, and have
commenced in a modest way to improve conditions by
cleaning up the undergrowth on tracts partially or wholly
covered by growing timber, and planting pine and chest-
nut on other tracts.
The progress in this direction will necessarily be slow and
the results will not be immediately appreciated, but we
believe will prove satisfactory in the future.

360 CITY OF CONCORD
YOLENTINE CHARLES HASTINGS
Born at Waterford, Vt., Feb. 26, 1838.
Died at Concord, N, H., March 14, 1907
Superintendent of Concord Water-Works.
May 1, 1873, to March 14, 1907.
WATER DEPARTMENT. 361
The following resolutions were unanimously adopted by
the Board of Water Commissioners on March 18, 1907 :
Whereas, In the death of Volentine Charles Hastings,
which occurred at his home on the 14th day of the month,
the City of Concord has lost an old, faithful and trust-
worthy official ; his tenure of office was unusual and re-
markable ; for a generation or longer Mr. Hastings had
served the city as superintendent of water-works ; beginning
his work as an inspector at the time of the construction of
the works, he knew thoroughly the history and needs of
our water system and, therefore, naturally assumed the
responsibilities of superintendent.
From the small income and the limited area of consum-
ers of 1873, he has seen the system extended and enlarged
beyond all expectation under his directing hand and sound
judgment ; his life was absorbed in his trust ; he saw in his
daily work his highest duty; he served Concord long and
well; therefore be it
Resolved, That the Board of Water Commissioners
hereby express their deep sense of loss at the death of
Superintendent Hastings, and tender to his family their
sincere condolences.
Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the
records of the Board and a copy sent to Mrs. Hastings.

The lowest point reached during the year was on Jan-
uary 1 and March 19, being 182 ; the highest was on Decem-
ber 11 and was 185.10 ; mean height for the year was 183.59,
which was .35 foot lower than the mean height for the year
1906.
The work of the department for the year has been car-
ried along the usual lines. During the winter our force
was employed in caring for and inspecting hydrants and
meters and repairing an occasional leak. All of the hy-
drants have been tested once a week, beginning December 1
and continuing until the middle of March.
In the spring the buildings on the W. H. Johns lot were
removed, which resulted in a great improvement in the
appearance of that section of our shores.
The work of relaying the cement-lined pipes was done as
laid out by your board, new hydrants were set in place of
old ones, and a number of new ones added. The services
were thoroughly cleaned along the lines relaid, new pipes
being put in when necessary and curb valves set on all ser-
vices where it was possible.
Your Board has voted to relay in 1908 the following
streets : Church, Franklin, Tremont, Pearl, Chapel, Court,
Jackson, Academy, Essex, Merrimack, Centre, School, South
Fruit, Allison, and Hall. When these lines are laid the
original cement-lined mains and distribution pipes laid in
1872 will be practically replaced, thereby making our sys-
tem almost wholly cast-iron, with the exception of those
laid in 1883 and 1887.
The Boston & ]\Iaine Railroad has been given an extra
supply through a 6-inch pipe from Railroad Street oppo-
site the freight depot, thereby greatly improving its service
and providing it with a source of supply in case one of its
pipes is shut off.
The Crescent Worsted Co. at West Concord has also been
given an increased supply for hydrant and sprinkler ser-
vice, enlarging from four to six inches.
The work of cleaning the shores of the lake was begun as
374 CITY OF CONCORD.
soon as possible after the completion of the pipe laying, and
was continued until cold weather and high water forced
us to stop.
Upon the suggestion of the president of your Board, we
have planted a few acres of land at Penacook Lake with
chestnut, but owing to the scarcity of seed, were unable to
do as much as we wished. In November, Mr. Philip W.
Ayres, state forester, made an examination of the timber
and pasture land around the shores of the lake owned by
the water-works, and presented to your Board a very inter-
esting report on thinning, clearing and replanting, which
was adopted and will be carried out as fast as possible.
Following this report is appended the engineer's report.
The increase in pumping station expenses is accounted for
by the fact that coal sufficient for a year 's supply was pur-
chased in July, which was deemed advisable owing to the
low price prevailing at that time.
In closing this report I wish to pay a brief tribute to my
predecessor, Mr. V, C. Hastings. His ability and worth
were evident to all who were acquainted with him, and the
excellent condition of the works was a constant witness to
his good judgment. But those who were with him daily
realized more deeply how the welfare of this department
was upon his mind all the time clear to the end, and there
never came an emergency day or night but that he was
ready to meet it successfully. His relations with his sub-
ordinates were such as will always be remembered with a
great deal of satisfaction.
I wish to thank the members of the Board for their sup-
port and confidence during the year, and also all connected
with the maintenance of this department for their faithful
service.
Respectfully submitted.

Superintendent.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION
OF PENACOOK SCHOOL DISTRICT FOR
THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 31, 1908.
During the past year the boundaries of the district have
been enlarged to include the Borough District and the
name changed to Penacook School District. This is an im-
portant step toward the ideal condition of one school dis-
trict for this community.
In obedience to the unanimous vote of the district at the
last annual meeting, a full four years ' course of High school
study has been prepared and adopted. The program of
studies includes a Classical, English and Commercial course
and entirely meets both the requirements and recommenda-
tions of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
The school had outgrown its quarters in the Charles
Street building and at the beginning of the school year it
was transferred to the Summer Street building and suitable
laboratory equipment provided.
With a properly constructed curriculum and with prop-
erly qualified teachers the High school is doing very satis-
factory work, and its elevating effect upon the ideals and
culture of the community and the uplift it has given to the
standards of the elementary schools can hardly be over-
estimated. Before it was established the great majority
of children in Penacook had less than six years in school
and the total membership of all the grades above the sixth
was forty-nine.
This year there are twelve grades and the total member-
ship above the sixth is one hundred and three — an increase
of over one hundred per cent. In short, from four to six
years of mental and moral discipline have been added to
the school life of the majority of the children of Penacook
by the establishment of our own High school. For the de-
SCHOOL REPORT. 407
tails of the management the people of the district are re-
ferred to the report of the principal, which, for the first
time in the history of Penacook, accompanies the report
of the Board of Education.
During the summer vacation the Charles Street building
was painted and the Summer Street building was thor-
oughly renovated and extensive alterations were made to
put it in suitable condition for the higher grades. The
second floor is entirely devoted to the High school and is
provided with a well equipped laboratory and new desks
and chairs. The grarmnar grades occupy the first floor
and the primary grades were transferred to the Charles
Street building.
After six years of faithful and successful work, ]\Ir. H.
C. Sanborn resigned, to accept a position in Danvers, j\Iass.,
and with the beginning of the year the schools came under
the supervision of Mr. W. H. Slayton, whose administration
has been in every way most satisfactory. Attention is
called to his report and also to the report of the music
teacher, both of which are made a part of this report.
On the whole the record of the year shows developments
which are so decisive and withal so completely accom-
plished that they ought to be permanent. But to insure
this there must be increased and more sympathetic cooper-
ation on the part of the parents. Too often the rules and
standards of the schools are ignored or openly criticized
by the parents without sufficient effort to understand the
conditions or appreciate the difficulties.
If the purpose of education is to prepare children for
efficiency and contentment in the situations in life which
they are likely to occupy, then it is quite as important to
teach punctuality, self-restraint and regard for the rights
of others as it is to teach arithmetic and grammar.
Parents are urged to inform themselves concerning the
punctuality and conduct of their children, as well as the
progress they are making in their studies, and so cooperate
wisely and intelligently with the Board of Education and
408 CITY OF CONCORD.
the teachers to make the conditions which surround the
school life of the children favorable for the highest possi-
ble development.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT.
To the Board of Education:
I herewith respectfully submit my first annual report
which is the seventh in the series of reports of the superin-
tendent of schools in District No. 20, Penacook. My brief
connection with the schools, covering little more than half a
year, has been a time for learning existing conditions rather
than for attempting any constructive work. Indeed, after
a system of schools has been under competent supervision
for six years and under judicious school board administra-
tion for a much longer time, revolutionary measures are
hardly in order, even if they were needed. During the
half year I have endeavored to fulfill what is in my esti-
mation the main function of an expert superintendent of
schools, viz.: raising the standard of the every-day work in
the schoolroom. This brief generalization covers several im-
portant elements : securing competent teachers, giving all
the teachers a better conception of the work to be done,
making material conditions favorable for work, and inter-
preting the course of study.
I have recommended the use of the state program of
studies in all the elementary schools and have provided the
teachers with detailed outlines in arithmetic based upon the
program. The best methods of teaching are our constant
study and I may say without reserve that all of the teach-
ers are ever ready to adopt suggestions that may benefit
their schools. Indeed, this cooperative spirit of the teach-
ers is one of the pleasing features of the work.
SCHOOLHOUSES AND GROUNDS.
At the beginning of the present school year the High
school was transferred to the Summer Street building,
which now contains also the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth
410 CITY OF CONCORD.
grades. The first four grades are in the new Charles
Street building. The transfer was, I believe, in every way
best, as the plan and general accommodations of the Sum-
mer Street building are better suited for the upper grades
and the High School. The Charles Street building, on the
other hand, has ample play-grounds which are very desir-
able for the small children, while the rooms themselves are,
in style and size, better adapted for the use of primary
schools.
In the High school and in four of the lower grade rooms
adjustable furniture is used. In view of the fact that the
other desks are in bad condition and unsuited to the chil-
dren, I believe it would be wise economy to replace them
with adjustable desks.
The school grounds are in direct contrast with the keep-
ing of the buildings. The dirt yards, while making good
play-grounds, are anything but attractive. The cinders
and clay around the Charles Street building are doubling
the wear upon the new floors, and make it extremely diffi-
cult to keep the rooms clean. This ground should be
seeded and provided with suitable walks.
Grading.
There is at present only one double grade room, the sixth
and seventh. The first grade has had an average attend-
ance of nearly fifty all the year, so that an assistant had to
be employed. With these two exceptions the conditions for
good work are excellent as far as grading is concerned.
Teachers and Salaries.
In the main I consider Penacook fortunate in the make-
up of its teaching force. This is significant in consid-
eration of the salaries paid. If a town is pleasantly sit-
uated, if the environment is agreeable and the schools com-
paratively well known and accessible, it is not difficult to
secure an inexperienced normal graduate to take a school
for a year. But the gain in power of the average graduate,
SCHOOL REPORT. 411
who has any considerable endowment of teaching ability,
is sometimes remarkable and almost always unproportioned
to the salary allowance of the average school district.
Consequently, at the end of the first year, and sometimes
sooner, the teacher goes to a better paying position. Then
the breaking-in process has to begin all over again. I wish
there were some unit of measure whereby the business men
and taxpayers of the community who support the schools
might be made to see the exact economic loss that is occa-
sioned by such a simple event as a change of teachers in
the middle of the year. I believe they would cry out that
their ten dollars a week invested in a teacher's salary was
paying too low a rate of interest when a fifty per cent loss
in efficiency was caused by a change of teachers. I believe
that they would agree to a man to increase their investment
by a fourth or a third if thereby the loss might be pre-
vented.
At present only 55 per cent of the whole appropriation
is expended for teachers' salaries. At least two-thirds of
the school money should be paid for salaries, and even this
is below the standard proportion — four-fifths. I am of the
opinion that a definite salary schedule for both High and
elementary schools, whereby the efficient teacher might re-
ceive an increase of salary each year, would be a distinct
advantage to the schools.
High School.
In September, 1904, the first year of a High school course
was established, with the modest number of seven pupils.
By a steady and consistent gi'owth the school has now an
enrollment of fifty- three, and a complete four years' course
approved by the state department. Two assistants are
employed besides Principal George H. Harmon, who is now
in the second year of his efficient service here. I am sure
that if the present standard of the school can be upheld
and raised still higher, residents of the district will see the
advantage of having their children attend this High school.
412 CITY OP CONCORD.
District No. 7, which is maintaining, at some disadvantage,
a ninth grade in the same room with the seventh and eighth
grades, may later see the advisability of uniting this class
with the first year in the High school.
I wish to point out the need of maintaining the unity of
the High school corps of teachers — not for one year alone,
but for two or several years in succession. - It is impossible
to pursue anything like a continuous policy in a High school
when a new principal takes up the work every other year,
and the assistants remain hardly long enough to learn the
pupils' names.
Now that the school plant and general equipment are so
well established, Penacook's next and by far most vital
consideration should be the salary question. An invest-
ment in capable teachers pays such a high rate of interest
in schoolboy and schoolgirl character and power that no
community can afford to shirk its duty to the common-
wealth.
Respectfully submitted,
W. H. SLAYTON.

HIGH SCHOOL REPORT.
The progress of the High school in offering new courses
of study and in the increase of the teaching force is
strictly in keeping with the aim of previous years, namely,
to render it possible for a greater number of the boys and
girls of Penacook District to gain the necessary preparation
to enter any of our standard New England colleges or tech-
nical schools, while ample provision is made for all who
intend to complete their scholastic education in the High
school. The courses of study which have been established
under the approval of the State Superintendent of Public
Instruction include three curriculums, each of which con-
tains a complete four years' course. Curriculum I is par-
ticularly intended for those who desire a Latin-Scientific
or College Preparatory Course. In this course the study
of Greek has been omitted. In its place additional mod-
ern language and science work are substituted. Curri-
culum II contains none of the ancient languages, but is
adapted to pupils interested in History, Advanced Mathe-
matics and Science. Curriculum III offers a Commercial
and Modern Language Course, designed to prepare pupils
for ordinary business practice or to enable them to enter
the best commercial colleges. The choice of Curriculums I
or II predominates among the three higher classes, while
Curriculum III is the more popular in the fourth class.
The establishment of new courses of study has in accord-
ance with the state requirement made necessary the employ-
ment of two assistant teachers and the equipment of a
laboratory for science work. Miss Louise Warner, who oc-
cupies the position rendered vacant by the resignation of
Miss S. Anna May, is a graduate of Wellesley College, class
of '07. Miss Warner has under her instruction the classes
in English, Latin and German. Particular mention is due
41 G CITY OF CONCORD.
her Avork in English, in which department she has success-
fully combined the required study for college entrance with
the reading of standard literature suggested in the state
course of study. Thus IMiss Warner has increased the
value of the work and the interest of her classes. Miss
Lilian C. Stirling, a graduate of Mount Holyoke, class '07,
has under her instruction the classes in Commercial work.
History and French. Miss Stirling's careful adaptation
and clear presentation of her subjects are readily shown by
the manifest interest and progress of her classes.
The work in Mathematics, Science and Advanced Latin
is conducted by the principal, George H. Harmon. The
Mathematics course has been extended to include Solid
and Spherical Geometry and Trigonometry. Thus the
course enables pupils who desire it to make a further study
of surveying. The science laboratory has been w^ell
equipped with a full supply of approved apparatus for
demonstration and experiment work in Physics. "With this
equipment sixty experiments can be performed in me-
chanics, heat, sound, light, magnetism and electricity. The
subject of Physics will alternate by years with the text
and experimental study of Chemistry.
The instruction in music and the development of mu-
sical ability under the direction of the general music
teacher. Miss Annie M. Chandler, has been justly appre-
ciated by both the pupils and parents. Much appreciation
is also felt by the teachers and members of the High school
for the assistance from citizens and others so generously
given at the public recitals.
The present senior class, which will be the first class to
graduate from a four years' course of study in the Pena-
cook High school, includes three boys and six girls. The
following honor parts for highest scholarship have been
assigned : Valedictory, Margaret R. Welcome ; Salutatory,
Viola M. Roundy of Canterbury; Class History, Gladys R.
Ward; Class Prophecy, Nellie M. Ferrin. The general
average of scholarship in all classes has been superior to
SCHOOL REPORT. 417
the average of last year. Several causes have contributed
to this result. Foremost among these have been an in-
creased interest among the pupils themselves and a gerater
cooperation on the part of the parents with the principal
and assistant teachers. The adoption of regular High
school hours has also been an advantage, by giving an op-
portunity in the afternoons for pupils to complete deficient
work under the direct supervision of their teachers. The
increase in the number of teachers has also helped to raise
the standard of the work in class room.
While there has also been a general improvement in the
average attendance, there is still felt the need of greater
punctuality on the part of pupils, if the best results are to
be attained. Desultory attendance and habitual tardiness
not only tend to the formation of habits unsuited to later
positions of responsibility, but are immediately detrimental
to school and class-room work. The cooperation of parents
will do much to meet this need.
The standard system of ranking for promotions, which
was adopted last year, has proved to increase in the pupils
a constant and faithful application to their work. While
this ambition to obtain by study a high rank in school work
is commendable, it is encouraging to find among the lower
as well as among the upper classes an increasing devotion to
their present school work, actuated by an appreciation of
its value and by the purpose to later acquire a college edu-
cation or to immediately apply in active life the training
obtained from their High school course.
In conclusion, mention should be made of the increase of
public interest which has been felt in athletics and all other
departments of the High school work, and which adds much
promise to its conditions of further success.

REPORT OF MUSIC TEACHER.
One object of this study in the schools is to enable the
children to read vocal music at sight as readily as they
read books.
The first essential is ear training. The child must know
how the tones represented by notes sound before he can
sing them. One teacher says, "the scale is the key to the
musical situation." This is true because the scale is the
foundation of all music. When the scale is learned the
child is able, under the teacher's direction, to find out the
relation of any given tone to any other tone. In the first
grade the children are taught the major scale, after which
the relation of each tone to every other tone within the
limits of low do and high do. This study is continued in
the second grade. In the third and fourth grades this
study is extended to tones above and below do. The fifth
grade study the chromatic scale and the sixth and seventh
the harmonic and melodic minor scales.
Sight reading follows just after ear training. It is first
presented as the act of making a picture of a short musical
phrase just sung. Thus staff notation with mozable do is
introduced. When the pupil reaches the eighth grade he
has sung in the fifteen major keys and been drilled in giving
their pitch names. Exercises with chromatics and in rela-
tive minor keys have also been studied.
Rhythm, melody and harmony are the three elements
of music.
The child's first lesson in rhythm consists in recognizing
by ear two short tones followed by one long tone and the
reverse. Later various methods of grouping tones are
studied.
Melody, the succession of tones, includes rhythm. Scale
SCHOOL REPORT. 419
and interval studies are the preparatory work to melody
singing.
Harmony, the sounding of two or more tones simultan-
eously, is begun in the fifth grade in two-part song.
Grades six and seven have three-part song and the eighth
grade, four-part singing.
We have learned that music is not necessarily noise. So,
for the sake of the children's voices, soft singing with the
head register is encouraged.
The time is coming when vocal and instrumental music
as well as theory will be included in the High school curri-
culum. But for the present chorus singing is, in most
instances, all that can be done. The freshman class in our
High school has one period a week devoted to musical
theory which should prove helpful to those studying some
instrument, and give to all a better understanding of this
art. We are glad to note that educators are beginning to
recognize the importance of music in education. The High
school needs music and the musician needs the High school
training.
The High school chorus was started last September. All
the students are invited to the weekly rehearsals. School
songs, Gounod's "Lovely Appear" and Mozart's ''Gloria
from the Twelfth Mass" have been sung. Two musicales
have been given and another is in preparation. The pu-
pils have contributed many instrumental numbers as well
as vocal numbers other than choruses. They have also
been assisted by outside talent. The parents and friends
have shown great appreciation of the pupils' efforts. A
few musical reference books and the opportunity to hear
artists in the High school are suggestions worthy of con-
sideration.
But school music means more than singing scales and in-
tervals. It means the development of the aesthetic sense
and mind discipline. The day is passing when music is
considered an easily learned accomplishment. It is a com-
plex study of many branches, and to attain to a great de-
420 CITY OF CONCORD.
gree of proficiency in any one branch requires years of
hard study.
The school endeavors to lay a foundation for future
study. I suppose the object of teaching English, Latin
and French grammar is to give the pupils a key to these
literatures. So school music should be a key to the great
musical literature of the world. It can only make the
beginning by awakening in the student's mind a desire to
carry on this study in later years.

SCHOOL REPORT OF THE TO>^N SCHOOL
DISTRICT OF CONCORD, 1907-1908.
To the School Board of Concord Town District:
I herewith submit my first annual report as superintend-
ent of schools.
It seems best that at tliis time I should give a brief state-
ment of the work and duties of my and also of my general
plan of work.
Expert supervision of schools is necessary for the same
reason that expert supervision is necessary in a manufac-
turing establishment. No corporation would think of try-
ing to run a plant without having as its manager or super-
intendent a man who has made that particular line his life
work. The employment of such a man does not in any way
affect the necessity for a board of directors and other offi-
cials. Their work is to determine the general policy of the
concern and the scope of its operations. To the agent or
manager or superintendent is assigned the work of carry-
ing these plans into execution.
The same is true of the school board and the superin-
tendent of schools. The chief functions of the board are
legislative, while the board looks to the superintendent for
the carrying out of its plans — for keeping the schools up to
such a state of efficiency that good results may be secured.
His powers are purely those which are delegated to him by
the board. His chief duties are concerned with the teach-
ers, the planning or arranging of their work and the choos-
ing of text-books.
The most important, as well as the most difficult work of
school officials is the securing of proficient teachers. It is
therefore one of the first duties of a superintendent to
recommend such teachers for the filling of vacancies and to
430 CITY OP CONCORD.
keep the board informed in regard to the kind of work
being done by each; at the same time he should, to the ut-
most of his ability, work to prevent the appointment of such
as are unfitted for the positions.
In district schools we must for the most part employ re-
cent, untrained graduates of high schools, and, as fast as
possible, train them into efficiency. This last has been an
important part of my work during the year, and to do it I
have visited the schools as possible, watching for opportuni-
ties to show the teacher where she can improve her work;
teaching the class for a few minutes to give her a sugges-
tion as to how she can better teach the subject, and after
the class has been dismissed, pointing out wherein she has
failed to do as well as she might, and how she can improve
her teaching. I have then helped her to arrange her work
to better advantage, for economy in time and for securing
results.
To be a good teacher a young woman must have the
power of leadership. If this power is natural, her task of
learning to teach is made much easier, but whether natural
or acquired, she must have it or fail. To many young
women the necessary self-assertiveness is repugnant, but
this feeling must be overcome. She must assume the lead-
ership of her school and direct its activities, both of the
school as a whole, and of its individual members.
In some cases teachers have been disposed to look upon
the superintendent as their natural enemy, whose only rea-
son for existing was to make their lives more miserable by
increasing the burden of their work, and by harsh or un-
kind criticism, likely to be offered in the presence of the
school, undermine their authority. I have tried to make
these young women feel that I was almost as anxious for
them to succeed as they themselves were ; and, that, when I
have offered criticisms, it was not to ease my own feelings,
nor yet to injure theirs, but that their work might be im-
proved and thereby their value as teachers increased.
The state program of studies has been put into general
SCHOOL REPORT. 431
use, and the schools are coming up to the level which it calls
for. This program of studies is an excellent one, and is
used — sometimes with slight modifications — by most of the
superintendents as the basis of their work. The fact that
its use is so general is much in favor of its being used in
any town or school district, for it tends to bring the work
throughout the state up to a uniform level. In school mat-
ters no town or district can afford to stand aloof and deny
responsibility for general educational conditions. If one
district neglects its duty in providing for the education of
its children, other towns and districts must suffer with it,
for its neglect, for these children soon grow to maturity
and from among them is recruited that class of "undesir-
able citizens," who shuffle aimlessly from place to place,
finally settling down to send forth another generation of
" inefficients, " if not a generation of criminals. Hence, if
our state is to maintain its high standard of citizenship
each district must not only perform its whole duty, but
must see that others do likewise.
The state program of studies lays particular emphasis
upon reading during the first three years of a child 's school
life. This is the subject of first importance during these
years, for if a child goes beyond this period without learn-
ing to read, he will, in all probability, never learn it, and
without reading, all other avenues of education are closed
to him. In most of the schools I found the work in this
subject much below what it ought to have been. This was
due partly to a lack of method in the teachers' work, and
partly to a lack of sufficient reading books of the right
grade. Both of these defects you have remedied — the first
by the adoption of the Gordon method of teaching reading
♦and the other by the purchase of a very good variety of
primary books. The blame for inefficient work cannot now
be laid upon the board.
After the child has mastered the mechanics of reading,
and has had sufficient practice to enable him to read read-
ily, smoothly and with understanding ordinary easy prose
432 CITY OF CONCORD.
— about the end of the third year — the greater part of this
work should have for its object the gaining of information,
and also to make him familiar with good literature, thereby
creating a taste for such reading. A portion of his time
should be devoted to securing good expression, but this
could never be accomplished by the old sing-song reading
lesson.
The aim and object of school work from beginning to end
is to fit the children to take their places in the world as
useful, intelligent citizens, and, so far as we can, fit them
for whatever measure of success their ambitions and nat-
ural qualifications may' lead them to acquire. The results,
so far, seem to be that the work is becoming systematized,
and brought up to a common standard; and the teachers
are becoming more efficient in their work.
I desire to express to parents, school board, and teachers,
my appreciation of the hearty cooperation extended to me
in my work.

Snaptown School.
Miss Mary S. Shaw taught the first term and Miss Kate
Adams the last two terms of the year. Miss Adams is a
graduate of Pembroke high school. Miss Adams brought
new energy into the school, making it an entire success.

With Miss Bridget Rochelle as teacher, the w^ork has
been carried on in the same satisfactory manner as in the
previous year, with nothing to mar the success which has
been uninterrupted since Miss Rochelle began her work

SCHOOL REPORT. 433
MiLLVTLLE School,
Mrs. Belle C. Ball has taught the grammar grade in this
school very satisfactorily to all. Miss Carrie C. Paul
taught the primary grade during the spring and fall terms.
During the winter term the grammar and primary grades
were united and were taught by Mrs. Ball, under whose
direction the school showed great improvement, i. t. c.
AsHviLLE School.
This school has been taught the entire year by Mrs.
Maude Gardiner Thompson. Under her excellent instruc-
tion the pupils made good improvement, and both parents
and pupils manifested much interest in the work of the
school. I. T. c.
Iron Works School.
This school, numbering thirty-five scholars, was taught
by Miss Edna F. Watson. Miss Watson is an experienced
teacher and the work done by her pupils is sufficient proof
of her ability. We think, where there are so many pupils
of varying ages, that an assistant would lighten Miss Wat-
son's labors and be of value to the school. i. t. c.
No. 4 School.
The spring term was taught by Mrs. Belle C. Ball. Miss
Tina B. Hurd took up the work during the fall and winter
terras. Both are teachers of much experience. This small
school of seven scholars was fortunate in being under the
instruction of teachers who rank among our best. The
progress made here seems to be well appreciated by the
parents and friends in this locality. a. s.
Horse Hill School.
Miss Grace E. Wallace, who taught this school the pre-
vious year, closed her labors here with the spring term.
Miss Nellie E. Merrill taught during the fall and winter
terms. The school made good progress under both teach-

reading and among other exercises the blackboard work
was especially good. a. s.

The first term was taught by Miss Isabel E. Adams ; the
last two by Miss Grace E. Wallace, with good success.

Miss Flora D. G. Hook taught this school during the three
terms of the year. If the parents in this district would
work unitedly for their interests in education much more
might be accomplished. i. f. h.
