Inaugural   Address 

of 

Mayor  William  G.  Bradley. 


Gentlemen  of  the  City  Council: 

It  was  proved  without  a  question  of  doubt  that  it  was  the 
will  of  the  people  that,  after  serving  them  as  their  mayor  for 
six  years,  that  I  still  continue  to  serve  them  another  year  in 
that  capacity  by  their  nominating  and  electing  me  for  the 
seventh  time  and  with  the  largest  majority  but  one  that  1  ever 
received,  without  any  soliciting  on  my  part,  for  I  did  not  seek 
the  office  or  ask  a  man  to  vote  for  me,  either  at  the  mayoralty 
convention  or  on  the  day  of  election,  and  I  therefore  appreci- 
ate it  all  the  more  because  it  came  not  from  one  person  or  a 
few  persons,  but  from  the  rank  and  file  of  all  parties,  acting 
freely.  And  now  I  wish  to  thank  my  fellow  citizens  for  the 
honor  they  have  shown  me,  and  more  particularly  for  their  ex- 
pressions of  confidence  which  they  still  place  in  me,  which  I 
assure  you  is  of  the  greatest  importance  and  gratification  to  me 
and  I  solemnly  do  pledge  to  them  and  to  you,  gentlemen  of  the 
city  council,  my  best  efforts,  and,  with  your  assistance,  will 
give  to  the  city  the  best  administration  of  its  affairs  that  the 
circumstances  will  admit  of. 

The  past  administration  has  no  apology  to  make  and  we  in- 
vite the  closest  scrutiny  into  the  condition  of  affairs  in  the  past 
and  as  they  exist  today.  We  could  not  expect  unanimous 
approval  of  our  every  act  during  the   past  two  years.     They 


have  been  eventful  years  for  the  city  of  Rochester,  as  well  as 
strenuous  ones  for  the  mayor  and  every  other  city  ofKcial,  still 
I  believe  we  will  be  accorded  ths  credit  of  having  stood  for 
what  we  considered  to  be  for  the  welfare  of  our  city,  unswerved 
by  hope  of  political  reward,  of  fear  of  threats  or  tauiits  of  po- 
litical opponents.  Still,  on  the  other  hand,  the  man  who 
always  has  his  own  way  without  dispute  must  find  life  terribly 
monotonous,  for  one  of  the  joys  of  existence  is  in  overcoming 
opposition.  This  city  has  reached  out  aud  added  a  great  many 
improvements  in  the  past  two  years.  In  fact,  it  has  been  very 
lavish  in  its  municipal  expenditures,  all  of  which,  however, 
they  needed  very  much  and  are  valuable  public  improvements 
and  are  such  as  our  citizens  should  feel  proud  of. 

The  demands  of  a  growing  city  for  improvements  come  a 
great  deal  faster  than  the  financial  condition  warrants.  It  is 
particularly  so,  I  am  sorry  to  say,  of  our  own  city,  for  while 
we  are  growing  in  population,  we  are  not  keeping  up  to  it  in 
regard  to  the  increase  of  taxable  property,  so  as  to  get  the 
necessary  funds  to  be  reducing  our  debt  and  to  meet  our  run- 
ning expenses,  that  we  ought  to  have.  I  fail  to  find  a  city  or 
town  in  Maine,  Vermont,  Massachusetts  or  New  Hampshire 
with  the  same  comforts  and  conveniences  that  the  city  of 
Rochester  has,  and  about  the  same  number  of  inhabitants,  but 
has  from  one  to  three  million  dollars  more  taxable  property. 

Finance. 

The  subject  of  finance  is  of  the  greatest  importance  to  our 
city,  for  you  have  expended  for  permanent  improvements  in 
the  past  two  years,  namely  : 

The  new  city  building  and  its  furnishings,  $85,500  00 

New  sixteen-inch  water  main,  49,000   00 

New  steel  reinforced  concrete  bridge  at  North 

Rochester,  2,000  00 

Amounting  to  $136,500  00 


You  are  growing  in  population,  public  improvemenls  and 
conveniences  faster  than  the  increase  of  your  income  will  ad- 
mit of.  You  ought  to  have  at  least  five  million  dollars'  worth 
of  taxable  property  instead  of  four  million  and  three  hundred 
thousand, which  you  have  today.  It  is  not  clear  to  your  finance 
committee  just  what  is  best  to  be  done,  but  you  have  these 
things  now  and  the  conditions  must  be  met.  The  tendency  of 
the  times  is  to  extravagance  by  individuals,  towns,  cities,  states 
and  nations.  The  following  is  a  statement  of  the  financial  con- 
dition of  our  city  as  shown  by  its  books  :

Highways. 

The  question  of  how  to  keep  our  highways  in  a  passable  con- 
dition and  at  the  same  time  make  some  permanent  improve- 
ments is  a  matter  of  great  importance  to  the  public.  We  have 
had  only  $9,000  appropriated  for  our  roads  for  the  past  two 
years  and  it  is  utterly  impossible,  with  this  amount  of  money 
to  do  near  what  the  public  demands  on  our  roads  and,  at  the 
same  time,  they  are  justified  in  their  demands  for  better  roads, 
and  it  would  be  very  pleasing  to  your  committee  on  roads, 
bridges  and  drains  to  fix  every  piece  of  road  that  they  touch 
each  year  in  the  best  possible  way  if  they  had  the  funds  to  do 
it  with,  but  they  have  to  distribute  the  small  amount  they  have 
to  work  with  to  the  best  advantage  they  can  after  looking  over 
the  150  miles  of  roads.  I  wish  we  might  have  $13,000  to 
$15,000  each  year  in  this  department;  if  we  had  we  could  bet- 
ter their  condition. 

Public  Library. 

The  public  library  continues  each  year  to  be  of  more  and 
more  importance  to  our  city.  The  reading  room  patronage  is 
increasing  from  year  to  year,  and  I  feel  that  it  is  doing  a  noble 
work  and  is  a  credit  our  city.  For  further  details  I  will  refer 
you  to  the  report  of  the  trustees  of  the  library. 

Schools. 

The  question  of  public  schools  and  how  to  obtain  the  highest 
and  best  results  is  one  that  has  interested  the  American  people 
from  the  foundation  of  our  government,  and  at  no  time  in  its 
history  has  there  been  that  pressing  need  of  such  a  high  grade 
of  excellence  in  its  graduates  as  today,  the  complex  duties  of 
life  requiring  every  one,  so  to  speak,  to  be  an  expert  in  some 
line  or  other  in  order  to  insure  success  in  life.  The  question 
of   sufficient  and  proper  accomodations  for  our  schools   is  one 


of  great  importance  to  us  today,  for  there  has  been  an  increase 
of  thirteen  per  cent,  of  children  for  1908  over  the  year  1907. 
You  have  added  three  new  teachers  and  now  you  must  add  two 
more,  making  five  new  rooms  and  teachers,  which  means  you 
will  have  to  raise  more  money  for  the  support  of  schools.  But 
few  people  outside  of  those  closely  connected  with  the  schools 
realizt;  the  work  necessary  to  attain  the  end  desired.  The  de- 
mands of  this  department  cause  the  largest  expenditures  of  any 
in  the  city  and  as  the  Mty  grows  the  requirements  of  this  de- 
partment will  be  more.  I  think  our  citizens  in  general  are 
friends  of  the  public  schools.  They  recognize  the  necessity  of 
their  existence  and  are  willing  to  give  their  support  and,  for 
the  most  part,  they  only  ask  that  they  be  as  efficient  as  possible 
and  be  conducted  with  due  economy. 

"Water. 

This  is  one  of  the  most  important  departments  of  our  city  in 
several  ways.  Pure  water  is  one  of  the  most  essential  things 
for  any  city's  growth  and  prosperity.  The  public  has  been 
much  exercised  by  the  bad  condition  of  the  water  the  past  year, 
while  the  state  analysis  of  the  water,  made  by  the  state  chem- 
ist, has  shown  it  to  be  very  clear  from  impurities  that  would 
cause  any  epidemic  of  disease.  Some  of  this  trouble  has  exist- 
ed by  reason  of  the  light  amount  of  rain  we  had  in  the  spring 
and  summer.  Again,  the  superintendent  of  water,  very  anxious 
to  better  the  condition  of  the  water  in  the  early  summer,  drew 
the  water  in  the  reservoir  down  six  or  seven  feet  in  order  to 
get  at  the  lower  gate  and  clean  in  out.  The  consequence  was, 
we  had  no  rain  and  the  reservoir  did  not  fill  up  and  very  low 
water  was  the  result  all  summer.  Your  superintendent  thought 
he  was  domg  right  and  probably  it  wonld  have  helped  it,  if 
there  had  been  rain  to  fill  the  reservoir  again.  If  you  remem- 
ber, in  the  year  of  1898  we  had  a  great  deal  of  trouble  with  the 
water.  Now  I  look  for  and  hope  that  it  can  be  made  better 
again  as  soon  as  we  have  the  usual  supply  of  water. 


Fire. 

I  need  hardly  say  our  fire  department,  under  its  efficient 
management,  is  one  of  the  best.  While  it  has  not  everything 
it  wants  and  needs,  it  is  in  pretty  good  shape  to  take  care  of  a 
fire.  It  has  exceeded  its  appropriation  the  past  year  but  it  is 
not  their  fault.  It  was  caused  by  the  brush  and  wood  fires 
which  cost  the  department  some  six  hundred  dollars.  Further 
particulars  will  be  found  in  the  chief  engineer's  report. 

Police. 

This  department  I  cannot  but  feel  is  doing  its  work  in  a  very 
satisfactory  manner.  Notwithstanding  we  are  growing  in  pop- 
ulation and  with  a  great  deal  of  territory  to  cover,  we  have  not 
added  to  the  police  force,  and  everyone  knows  there  is  no  city 
in  the  state  with  the  amount  of  inhabitants  that  Rochester  has 
today  that  has  so  small  a  police  force  as  we  have.  I  will  go 
farther  and  say  that  I  do  not  think,  go  where  you  will,  you 
can  find  a  city  of  its  size  and  with  the  same  facilities  in  steam 
and  electric  roads  running  in  and  out  of  our  city,  with  its 
streets  and  alleys  as  clear  from  drunken  men  or  its  police 
court  records  any  cleaner  than  ours.  I  have  been  here  thirty- 
three  years  and  the  first  year  could  sit  in  my  home  and  see  on 
Sunday,  horse  trading,  drunken  men  and  women  and  fights. 
Now  1  wish  to  say  a  word  in  regard  to  the  night  police.  Every 
little  while  some  tax  payer  will  say  to  me  that  they  are  not 
around  at  night  when  wanted.  Now  I  feel  it  my  duty  to  pro- 
tect a  man  when  the  conditions  warrant.  To  begin  with,  the 
two  night  police  commence  at  eleven  o'clock  to  go  their  rounds 
and  they  have  to  continue  that  until  four  o'clock,  rain  or  snow. 
That  is  about  four  miles  travel  for  each  man.  There  are  seven 
boxes  placed  in  seven  different  parts  of  the  city.  There  is  a 
dial  brought  to  my  desk  every  morning  and  by  it  I  can  tell 
whether  they  are  on  duty  or  not.  If  anything  happens  that 
either  of  them  misses  a  wind,  he  is  to  tell  the  janitor  why   and 


9 


he  writes  on  the  back  the  reason,  so  it  can  be  looked  up. 
Neither  one  of  them  can  get  at  this  dial,  so  you  see  they  must 
be  on  duty  or  explain  why.  There  has  been  perfect  harmony 
between  the  mayor  and  city  marshal  and  every  officer  on  the 
force  and  I  am  much  pleased  with  the  result  of   the  past   year. 

Janitors  and  Their  Duties. 

There  are  thirteen  miles  of  fire  alarm  wires,  ten  miles  of  po- 
lice wires  and  seven  police  clocks  that  must  be  kept  in  working 
order.  A  snow  or  electrical  storm  is  liable  to  put  either  one 
out  of  commission  at  any  time  and  they  will  have  to  work  nights 
and  Sundays  to  repair  them.  There  are  also  64  batter}'  jars  in 
the  battery  room  that  have  to  be  looked  after  twice  a  da}',  two 
instruments  outside,  whistle  striker,  Methodist  church,  six 
other  strikers,  namely  :  one  chief  engineer's  house  ;  one,  Co- 
checo  engine  house ;  one,  Torrent  engine  house ;  one,  Han- 
scorn's  house ;  two  at  main  fire  station.  Every  morning  at 
8.45  the  fire  alarm  must  be  rung  in  to  test  it ;  two  boilers  to 
run  and  75  radiators  to  look  after  in  the  winter  season  ;  and 
the  chemical,  nine  times  out  of  ten,  night  or  day,  since  the 
horses  have  been  stabled  at  the  house,  is  on  its  way  to  the  fire 
before  the  alarm  is  done  blowing.  The  above,  I  hold  Will 
Hanscom  responsible  for.  Of  course,  the  other  janitor  has  to 
help  any  and  everywhere  needed,  and  every  lime  the  tramp 
room  or  lockup  is  used  they  have  to  be  flushed  out  thoroughly 
with  the  hose.  If  not  used,  it  has  to  be  done  twice  a  week. 
The  walks  have  to  be  kept  clean,  and,  in  fact,  a  great  part  of 
the  entire  building  must  be  looked  after  every  day,  and  every 
time  the  opera  house  is  used  the  two  janitors  have  to  work  un- 
til about  midnight  wiih  no  extra  pay.  You  have  a  nice  build- 
ing, so  pronounced  by  everyone  who  comes  to  see  it,  more 
particularly  those  from  out  of  the  city  ;  in  fact  you  will  find  it 
from  boiler  room  to  opera  house  ready  to  take  anyone  through 
at  any  time,  but  it  means  work,  care  and  expense.  You  can- 
not live  in  a  mansion  as  cheaply  as  you  can  in  a   small  cottage. 


10 


I  speak  of  the  work  of  the  janitors  for  the  reason  of  comments 
that  are  thrown  out  by  some  whom  I  felt  did  not  quite  under- 
stand the  matter 

Financial  Condition*. 

Now  if  you  will  bear  with  me,  I  will  lay  before  you,  as  plain- 
ly as  I  can,  the  situation,  and  as  briefly  as  possible.

Required  appropriation  from  city,  $28,660 

Attention  should  be  called  to  the  following  figures.  They 
are  either  from  the  U.  S.  census  or  from  the  official  enumera- 
tion of  children  of  school  age  as  required  by  the  state  law : 

Year  1900. 
Population  of  Rochester,  8,467 

Children  of  school  age,  1,295 

Percentage,  children  of  school  age,  15.3 

Year  1907. 
Children  of  school  age,  1,485 

Year  1908. 
Children  of  school  age,  1,675 


11 


Percentage,  increase  over  1907,  13 

Estimating  the  population  of  the  city,  from  the  percentage 
of  the  year  1900  and  the  school  census  of  1908,  we  have : 

Population  of  Rochester  today  10,800—11,000. 

The  most  significant  fact  is  the  increase  of  children  of 
school  age  during  the  last  year  of  13  per  cent. 

There  are  at  present  in  the  city  three  schools  having  a  total 
registration  of  over  55  each.  They  are  the  third  and  fourth 
grades  at  Gonic  and  the  first  and  second  grades  at  the  Allen 
school. 

Such  conditions  are  literally  intolerable. 

Furthermore  we  have  ten  room  with  over  forty-five  regis- 
tered. 

To  relieve  these  conditions  we  must  open  at  least  two  new 
rooms.  In  the  Gonic  school  there  is  a  vacant  room  needing 
only  desks  and  seats  to  make  it  ready  for  occupancy. 

In  the  city  proper  there  are  no  vacant  rooms.  Moreover  a 
room  was  taken  away  from  the  high  school  last  September  for 
the  use  of  a  new  seventh  and  eighth  grade,  thus  hampering  the 
high  school  very  much.  The  room  occupied  by  the  sixth 
grade  at  the  Allen  school  is  so  poorly  ventilated  and  lighted 
that  it  is  not  fit  for  use  as  a  school  room. 

The  only  permanent  solution  of  these  difficulties  is  the  build- 
ing of  a  new  school  house. 

It  may  be  possible  to  postpone  such  action  another  year  by 
refurnishing  one  or  two  rooms  in  the  old  Upham  street  build- 
ing. 

It  must  be  understood,  however,  that  this  would  be  merely  a 
temporary  expedient.  Eventually  the  high  school  must  have 
two  new  rooms  and  the  sixth  grade  room  in  the  Allen  school 
must  be  abandoned. 

The  new  high  school  building  cost  S38,950.52  and  there  are 
notes  out  now  against  it  of  811,600.00.  Now  I  think  that  you 
ought  to  pay  each  year  $3,000  of  that,  and  then  you  would  re- 
tire them  all  in  1912. 


12 

Deep  Sewek  Bonds. 
Bonded  1896  for  S130,000,  they  mature  in  1916.     You    paj 
356,500  each  year  beside  the  interest.     You  raise  for  that    pur- 
pose this  year : 

On  the  principal  debt,  $6,500.00 

Interest  on  the  balance  not  paid  of 

$45,500,  1,592.50 


S8,092.50 

So  you  see,  those  of  you  who  live  to  see  it  will  have  seven 
to  eight  thousand  dollars  a  year  less  to  raise  on  this  item  alone. 
On  your  new  city  building  bonds,  you  make  the  first  pay- 
ment January  1,  1912,  of  $3,000,  for  each  year  to  January  1, 
to  1918,  and  from  January  1,  1919,  to  January  1,  1926,  you 
are  to  pay  $5,000  each  year,  and  January  1,  1927,  $4,000, 
which  wipes  out  the  debt.  You  see  as  soon  as  you  get  the 
deep  sewer  bonds  paid  it  will  not  be  so  hard,  and  in  this  way 
of  doing  this  generation  is  paying  for  and  enjoying  their  per- 
manent improvements  and  the  coming  generation  will  take  it  up 
where  this  one  leaves  off  and  presumably  will  continue  on  with 
improvements. 

Police  Extra. 
$1,000  more  by  reason  of  the  drug  store  license,  being  $10 
each  instead  of  $200.  Where  we  got  $800  in  1907,  we  got 
about  $50  in  1908,  and  the  police  court  fines  being  so  much 
less  than  they  used  to  be  that  now  we  have  to  appropriate 
$4,000  for  that  department. 

Water  Bonds. 

Bonded  1892  for  $200,000.00 

Y'"ou  have  paid  since  out  of  the 

earnings,  30,000.00 

$170,000.00 

During  this  time  you  have  also  made  extensions  that  cost 
$59,028.57,  which  you  have  paid  for  also  out  of  the  earnings. 
Now  I  figure  that  you  can  pay  $6,000  each  year  out  of  the 
earnings  on  the  bonds  and  still  extend  the  system  as  the 
demand  calls  for. 


13 

Now  there  i?  todaj'  SI 70,000.00  iu  bonds  out  that  mature  in 
1922,  and  if  you  pay  the  $6,000  each  year  that  I  speak  of  until 
that  time,  you  will  then  owe  $86,000.00  on  the  water,  which 
amount  I  have  no  doubt  will  be  bonded  for  a  term  of  years  so 
that  the  water  will  pay  for  itself.  Of  course  if  the  city  should 
continue  to  grow  and  you  should  have  more  water  takers  you 
would  be  able  to  pay  faster  than  the  way  I  have  mapped  out 
here,  unless  some  unforeseen  things  should  happen. 

Now  there  are  but  two  ways  that  I  know  of  to  get  the  neces- 
sary funds  to  meet  the  above  expense.  You  can  re-appraise 
your  property  and  try  to  make  it  as  near  equal  to  every  tax 
payer  as  the  wisdom  of  your  assessors  will  admit.  If  that 
was  to  be  done  it  would  seem  to  me  there  ought  to  be  two 
assistants  elected  to  assist  your  regular  assessors  and  to  be 
done  in  the  spring  and  summer  months,  and  it  could  not  be 
done  in  time  to  help  you  for  this  year.  Again,  you  do  not 
know  what  may  be  done  in  the  legislature  this  winter.  The 
other  way  is  to  advance  the  tax  rate  enough  to  meet  the  de- 
mands, and  when  you  get  ready  to  do  something  else  you  can 
lower  the  tax  rate  at  any  time. 

And  now,  gentlemen,  in  conclusion,  allow  me  to  say  that  in 
all  of  these  years  that  I  have  been  mayor  of  the  city  of  Roch- 
ester the  uppermost  thought  in  my  mind  at  all  times  has  been 
to  try  and  do  that  which  seemed  to  me  for  the  best  interest  and 
the  good  of  the  city  and  its  citizens  at  large.  While  I  have 
made  many  mistakes, still  I  have  done  a  great  many  things  that 
at  the  time  seemed  to  go  against  me  personally,  but  I  am  will- 
ing to  sacrifice  myself  to  some  extent  if  I  can  only  get  fairly 
good  results  for  our  city,  well  knowing  at  best  I  can  do  but 
little.  I  wish  at  this  time  to  express  my  sincere  thanks  to  the 
council  of  the  past  year  for  the  courtesy  and  assistance,  to  the 
city  clerk,  Mr.  Worcester,  and  the  assistant  clerk.  Miss 
Roberts,  on  whom  I  called  many  times  for  matters  of  record 
and  figures,  which  have  at  all  times  been  cheerfully  given,  also 
to  the  city  solicitor,  Mr.  Felker,  for  good  advice  and  watchful- 
ness over  the  legal  affairs  of  our  city.  Now,  gentlemen  of  the 
city  council  and  fellow  citizens,  with  your  assistance  I  promise 
you  to  do  the  best  I  possibly  can  in  the  coming  year  for  the 
good  of  our  city  and  its  tax  payers.

Report   of  Chief  Engineer  ot  Fire  Department, 


To  the  Honorable  Mayor  and  City  Gotincil : 

In  rendering  my  report  of  the  Rochester  Fire  Department, 
ending  December  31st,  1908,  would  state  that  there  have  been 
18  bell  calls;  18  still  alarms,  14  brush  fire  calls,  two  at  G-onic, 
two  at  East  Rochester,  10  in  city  proper. 

The  amount  of  property  involved  was  as  follows  ;  Valuation 
of  buildings  S65,584,  insurance  on  same  S41,200,  loss  paid 
§33,950 ;  contents  valuation  of  S60,500,  insurance  on  same 
$27,125,  loss  paid  S25,175. 

The  forest  fires  have  burned  over  350  acres,  with  the  loss 
estimated  $1,250. 

There  have  been  purchased  and  added  to  the  equipment,  500 
feet  two  and  one-half  inch  rubber  lined  double  jacket  hose,  one 
deluge  set,  eighteen  Cover's  automatic  respirators,  one  fire 
alarm  box. 

I  would  recommend  a  permanently  employed  driver  to  stay 
at  the  central  fire  station  for  day  and  night  duty,  for  quick 
attendance  at  fires  within  the  city  limits,  also  1,000  feet  rubber 
lined  double  jacket  fire  hose,  also  one  steam  fire  engine.  In 
my  last  report  I  recommended  four  new  fire  alarm  boxes  and 
but  one  has  been  purchased  this  season  and  I  would  earnestly 
recom.mend  that  the  other  three  be  purchased  this  season.  The 
cost  of  the  fire  department  for  the  year  will  be  found  in  the 
report  of  the  committee  on  finance. 

In  behalf  of  the  board  of  engineers,  I  will  take  this  oppor- 
tunity to  extend  our  sincere  thanks  to  all  the  members  of  the 
fire  department  for  the  promptness  with  which  they  have  dis- 
charged their   duties   during    the   past   year.     We   would  also 


43 


thank  the  members  of  the  city  governmeut,  who  have  rendered 
the  department  any  assistance  during  the  yefir. 

Respectfully   submitted 

H.  C.  HANSON, 
Chief  Rochester  Fire  Department. 
December  31,  1908.

Instructions  to  Citizens. 

1.     Upon  the  discovery  of  a  fire,  notice   should    be  immedi- 
ately communicated   to  the    nearest   alarm    box,    the  keys   to 


44 


which  are  in  the  hands  of  all  regular  police,  and  in  boxes    near 
each  alarm  box. 

2.  Upon  the  discovery  of  a  fire,  or  positive  information  of 
a  fire,  break  the  glass  in  the  key  box,  take  key  and  unlock 
alarm  box,  pull  down  the  hook  once  as  far  as  it  will  go  (with- 
out jerking)  and  then  let  go.  Shut  the  door  but  do  not  try  to 
remove  the  key,  as  it  is  locked  in  a  trap  lock  and  can  only  be 
removed  by  a  release  key,  which  is  carried  by  each  engineer, 
who  will  as  soon  as  convenient  release  and  return  it. 

3.  All  persons  giving  fire  alarms,  are  requested  to  remain 
by  the  box  a  moment,  and  if  no  clicking  is  heard  in  the  box 
pull  again ;  and  if  you  still  hear  no  clicking,  go  to  the  nearest 
box  procure  a  key  and  give  an  alarm  from  that.  Remember 
that  the  firemen  will  come  directly  to  the  box  which  has  been 
pulled,  and  be  sure  that  some  one  stays  at  the  box  to  direct 
them  to  the  fire. 

4.  Never  pull  an  alarm  for  afire  seen  at  a  distance. 
Never  touch  a  box  except  to  give  an  alarm  for  fire. 
Give  an  alarm  for  no  cause  other  than  actual  fire. 
Don't  give  an  alarm  for  a  chimney  fire. 

5.  Owners  and  occupants  of  buildings  are  requested  to  in- 
form themselves  of  the  location  of  alarm  boxes  near  their 
property.     Be  sure  the  alarm  is  promptly  and  properly    given. 


Signals. 

Two  strokes  of  the  bell  is  the  all  out  signal. 
Six  strokes  of  the  bell  is  for  a  brush   fire,  or  a  fire   at  a  dis- 
tance, where  the  fire  department  will  be  needed. 
One  stroke  of  the  bell  is  the  engineer's  test. 
The  above  signals  are  given  only  by  the  chief  engineer.

Report  of   Superintendent  of   Water  Works   for   the 
Year  Ending  Dec,  31,  1908, 


To  the  Committee  on  Water  Works : 

Gentlemen  : — The  seventeenth  annual  report  of  the  super- 
intendent of  water  works  is  herewith  submitted. 

Water  was  supplied  to  the  city  from  the  reservoir  during 
the  winter  and  spring  up  to  the  first  of  June  when  Round  Pond 
was  turned  on  and  water  from  this  source  was  u^ed  up  to  Sept. 
12th.  Before  this  date  the  water  had  been  drawn  so  low  in 
the  pond  that  it  was  necessary  to  open  the  lower  gate  at  the 
gate  house  so  as  to  admit  the  necessary  supply.  Immediately 
after  this  was  done  the  water  showed  evidence  of  algaj  to  a 
marked  degree.  The  water  was  then  taken  from  the  reservoir 
and  showed  considerable  improvement  for  about  three  weeks 
when  the  supply  also  began  to  taste  and  smell  from  the  same 
trouble.  November  1st  the  water  in  Round  Pond  was  tried 
again  but  was  found  to  be  more  objectionable  than  that  in  the 
reservoir  and  I  immediately  turned  back  into  the  reservoir 
supply.  During  the  early  summer  I  had  drawn  the  reservoir 
down  seven  feet  below  high  water  as  I  thought  it  might  im- 
prove the  water  to  change  it  during  this  period,  but  the  drouth 
came  and  I  was  unable  to  fill  the  same  until  late  in  the  fall, 
which  condition  of  affairs  accounts  for  the  presence  of  algfe  in 
the  reservoir,  which  I  consider  the  better  source  of  supply  of 
the  two,  notwithstanding  all  talk  to  the  contrary.  After  the 
water  became  objectionable  the  entire  system  was  flushed  out 
five  times,  but  this  did  not  seem  to  remove  any  of  the 
objectionable  qualities. 


98 


The  analysis  during  this  time  bj  the  State  Board  of  Health 
showed  the  water  to  be  perfectly  wholesome  for  domestic  use 
and  entirely  free  from  bacillus  coli  or  disease  germs.  A  treat- 
ment of  sulphate  of  copper  would  probably  remove  this  ob- 
jectionable feature  in  the  water  to  a  large  degree.  I  should 
never  recommend  a  filter  on  this  system  as  the  water  sheds  are 
on  the  whole  free  from  contamination  and  clean, and  filtering  of 
water  from  such  water  sheds  as  you  now  have  is  entirely  un- 
called for  and  a  waste  of  money.  If  any  improvements  are  to 
be  made  on  this  part  of  the  system  I  ahould  recommend  that 
the  shores  of  the  reservoir  be  dug  out  where  shallow,  and  the 
entire  shore  ripraped  to  a  depth  of  six  or  seven  feet  below  high 
water  mark  and  the  brook  from  which  the  reservoir  is  filled  be 
cleaned  up  for  at  least  two  miles  and  the  channel  cleaned  out 
so  the  water  would  have  a  continuous  flow  to  the  intake.  This 
would  allow  the  water  to  be  aerated  more  or  less  and  remove 
some  of  the  color  which  is  very  noticable  at  some  seasons  of 
the  year. 

Following  is  the  amount  pipe,  new  service,  etc.,  laid  during 
the  year.

stopped  up.  Your  attention  is  again  called  to  complaints  of 
the  residents  on  the  eastern  end  of  Portland  street  and  vicinity 
in  Rochester  and  the  necessity  of  proper  sewerage  in  that 
locality  is  essential  to  the  health  of  the  whole    community.

Report  of  Tree  Warden, 


To  the  Mayor  and  City  Council  at  the  City  oj  Rochester: 

I  have  tried  to  keep  the  trees  in  the  public  highway  as  free 
from  the  brown  tail  caterpillars  as  possible  and  no  damage 
was  done  by  them.  But  some  private  lots  were  badly  in- 
fested and  not  a  leaf  was  left  on  the  trees  the  last  of  June. 
Let  everybody  destroy  a  nest  when  they  see  one,  as  it 
means  from  150  to  300  caterpillars  next  summer  from 
each  nest. 

There  are  a  great  many  people  who  think  that  by  building 
fires  in  the  street,  which  is  very  dangerous  in  a  dry  time,  that 
the  millers  would  fly  into  the  fire  and  burn.  But  by  Supt. 
Kirkland's  report  of  the  work  in  Massachusetts,  I  see  that  they 
tried  light  traps  around  arc  lights  and  over  94  per  cent,  of  the 
millers  caught  were  male  millers,  and  the  experiment  was  not 
satisfactory. 

There  are  about  fifty  dead  trees  that  will  have  to  be  re- 
moved as  soon  as  possible  or  they  will  be  dangerous  to  the 
public.

Report  of  Superintendent  ot  Streets. 


To  His  Honor ^  the  Mayor^  and   the    City   Council   of  the  City 

of  Rochester : 

Gentlemen  : — 1  have  tbe  honor  to  submit  the  annual  report 
of  the  highway  department,  together  with  a  list  of  tools  which 
are  now  under  the  care  of  the  street  commissioner,  for  the  year 
ending  Dec.  31st,  1908. 

There  has  been  considerable  work  accomplished  in  the  out- 
side districts  with  the  road  machine  this  year.  The  outside 
roads  had  been  badly  washed  out  by  heavy  rains,  so  we  had  to 
repair  those  that  were  in  the  worst  condition.  We  gave  the 
best  attention  possible  to  the  Barrington  road,  the  Swamp  road. 
Ten  Rod  road,  Meaderboro,  and  Four  Rod  road,  also  the  road 
that  passes  the  home  of  Charles  Estes. 

The  sidewalks  have  received  the  best  attention  possible. 
There  have  been  new  sidewalks  laid  in  front  of  City  Hall,  one- 
half  of  that  in  front  of  Hayes  and  Dodge  blocks,  also  some 
brick  walks  laid  on  Wakefield  and  Bridge  streets.  Consider- 
able repairs  were  made  to  sidewalks  throughout  the  city,  by 
the  use  of  cinders,  there  being  500  loads  used. 


Surface  Sewers. 

At  East  Rochester  we  built  six  new  drops, viz  :  Two  on  Main 
street,  one  on  Portland  street,  two  on  Eastern  avenue,  one  on 
Highland  street.  At  Gonic  we  built  two  drops  on  Church 
street.  In  connecting  these  drops  with  the  main  sewer  we  used 
20  or  30  feet  of  8-inch  pipe  for  each  drop. 

There  have  been  five  miles  of  bushes  cut  this  year.

Report    of  Library  Trustees, 


To  the  Honorable  Council  of  the  City  of  Rochester: 

Gentlemen  : — The  trustees  of  the  Rochester  Public  Library 
herewith  submit  their  fifteenth  annual  report,  including  the 
librarian's  and  treasurer's  report,  for  the  year  ending  Decem- 
ber 31st,  1908. 

During  the  year  there  has  been  no  change  in  the  policy  or 
management  of  the  library,  but  it  has  been  the  endeavor  of  the 
trustees  to  meet  the  demands  of  the  public.  This  is  shown  by 
the  fact  that  we  are  now  supplying  each  month  three  branch 
libraries.  The  East  Rochester  library  with  200  volumes.  The 
Gonic  library  with  400  volumes,  and  in  June  we  established  a 
branch  library  at  Meaderboro  with  50  volumes.  That  the  aims 
and  resources  of  the  library  are  being  better  understood  and 
used  is  indicated  by  the  establishment  of  the  branch  libraries, 
and  also  in  the  increase  of  the  circulation  over  last  year  of 
6,550  volumes.  The  interest  taken  by  the  public  in  the 
library  is  evident  by  the  following  comparison,  the  1907  report 
of  the  Dover  library  contains  35,270  volumes,  the  circulation 
was  55,813.  The  Rochester  library  contains  12,533,  the  circu- 
lation 1908  was  46,237.  Considering  the  population  of  both 
cities  it  is  evident  from  the  circulation  that  the  people  believe 
in  the  library. 

During  the  year  481  volumes  have  been  purchased.  The 
trustees  would  have  bought  more  books,  but  in  order  to  keep 
the  building  in  repair  we  had  to  reduce  the  appropriation  for 
books  and  make  some  repairs.  Painting  and  puttying  the 
windows,  repairing  the  slate  on  the  roof  and  other  repairs. 
But  as  one  has  said,  "The  royal  road  to  culture  is  through  a 
well  stocked  library,"  we  hope  to  appropriate    more    money  for 


205 


books  the  coming  year.  Hut  we  wisb  to  remind  the  public  that 
the  Rochester  Public  Library  is  without  the  bequests  of  other 
public  libraries.  The  only  bequest  our  public  library  has  had 
is  the  $1,000  of  the  Jennie  Farrington  fund, the  interest  is  used 
for  the  purchase  of  Juvenile  books.  In  some  public  libraries 
the  donors  specify  the  particular  class  of  books  they  desire  pur- 
chased with  the  income  of  their  bequest,  and  others  give  for 
general  purchases.  We  trust  that  some  of  our  citizens  will  re- 
member the  public  library  and  donate  a  sufficient  fund  to  equip 
the  library  with  good  reading  and  with  the  latest  and  best  lists 
of  reference  books. 

The  trustees  wish  to  express  their  thanks  to  Mr.  C.  A.  C. 
Hanson  for  the  four  volumes  of  the  Genealogy  of  New  Hamp- 
shire given  in  memory  of  his  father  Dominicus  Hanson  and 
also  to  the  Rochester  Woman's  Club,  who,  by  their  donation 
made  it  possible  to  secure  for  the  library  the  pictures  of  the 
Library  Art  Club,  and  to  all  others  who  donated  books  and 
relics  for  the  historical  room. 

In  conclusion  the  trustees  would  request  of  the  Honorable 
Council  that  they  continue  the  appropriation  of  $3,000  for  1909 
for  during  the  coming  year  the  insurance  on  our  books  will 
have  to  be  renewed  for  three  years,  and  we  desire  in  some  de- 
gree, to  satisfy  the  demand  of  the  public  for  good  literature 
and  also  to  make  the  public  library  an  able  adjunct  to  our  pub- 
lic schools  by  purchasing  the  latest  reference  books. 

The  trustees  are  gratified  at  the  increase  in  circulation  and 
attendance  and  wish  to  express  their  appreciation  of  the  atten- 
tion shown  the  patrons  of  the  library  by  the  librarian  and  her 
assistants,  during  the  year. 

JOHN  YOUNG, 

Secretary.

To  the  Trustees  of  the  Rochester  Public  Library: 

Gentlemen  :  I  gladly  submit  to  you,  in  this  tifteenth  annual 
report,  the  record  of  a  busy  year.  Busy  not  only  with  its  larger 
circulation, its  additions,  its  agencies,  its  work  with  the  children 
and  the  schools,  but  with  its  increasing  reference  work  and  its 
attempts  to  satisfy  the  demands  made  upon  it. 

At  the  beginning  of  1908  the  library  numbered  11,668 
volumes.  During  the  year,  176  volumes  have  been  added  by 
binding  periodicals,  246  volumes  have  been  received  as  gifts, 
79  purchased  from  the  interest  of  the  Jennie  Farrington  fund 
and  402  purchased  from  the  general  fund,  the  total  number  of 
accessions  903.  Thirty-three  volumes  have  been  discarded 
because  unfit  for  use,  four  lost  and  one  destroyed  on  account 
of  exposure  to  contagious  disease,  making  the  entire  number 
of  accessioned  volumes  in  the  library  at  this  time  12,633. 
The  classes  represented  as  follows  :

In  the  purchase  of  books  due  attention  has  been  given  to  a 
proper  porportion  of  the  classes.  Many  standards  have  been 
supplied  and  a  beginning  made  toward  duplicating  poor  editions 
of  those  already  on  the  shelves.  By  adding  a  few  of  these 
each  year,  the  sets  will  soon  be  completed  without  noticeable 
depletion  of  the  book  allowance. 

The  library  has  been  opened  to  the  public,  309  days  during 
1908  and  46,237  books  have  been  given  out,  200  from  the 
Meaderboro  agency,  1194  from  East  Rochester,  1529  from 
Gonic  and  43,324  from  the  library.  A  gain  of  6550.  That 
you  may  note  the  increase  by  classes  as  compared  with  last 
year  the  tables  of  circulation  for  1907  and  1908  are  given.

The  people  of  Meaderboro  corner  have  shown  their  appreci- 
ation of  the  little  agency,  established  in  June,  through  the 
efforts  of  Mrs.  Charles  S.  Brock.  She  has  assumed  full  charge 
of  the  work  taking  care  of  the  fifty  books  left  in  her  charge, 
giving  time  two  days  each  week  to  their  circulation  and  making 
all  necessary  reports  and  exchanges.  Mrs.  Brock  reports  a 
circulation  of  200. 

It  is  pleasing  to  note  the  decided  increase  in  circulation  at 
East  Rochester,  550  books  have  been  sent  to  the  agency,  50 
being  exchanged  each  month.  Seventy-seven  people  have  reg- 
istered during  the  year,  making  the  entire  number  of  cards  in 
use,  1430.

The  resignation  of  Mr.  Levi  Meader  at  the  Gonic  agency 
was  very  much  regretted,  but  his  successor,  Mr.  George  H. 
Marsh,  has  taken  up  the  work  with  much  enthusiasm.  During 
the  year  1150  books  have  been  sent  to  Gonic  and  the  reports 
show  that  1529  have  been  given  out  and  28  new    cards    issued.

The  children's  room  at  the  library  has  attracted  many  little 
visitors  during  the  year  and  the  books  and  magazines  at  their 
disposal  are  very  much  used.  The  assistant  who  has  this  room 
in  charge,  surely  has  her  hands  full  during  portions  of  the  day 
looking  after  the  wants  of  the  little  ones  and  keeping  the 
larger  ones  out  of  mischief.  5G51  readers  have  been  registered 
864  more  than  last  year.  12,713  books  have  been  given  out 
during  the  year  an  increase  of  1264.

The  books  for  this  department  have  been  purchased  entirely 
from  the  interest  of  the  Jennie  Farrington  fund.  The  children 
have  a  bright,  attractive  room  and  good  books  but  it  has  been 
impossible  to  do  anything  in  the  way  of  decoration.  Many  of 
the  children  come  from  picturelesa  and  bookless  homes.  What 
an  opportunity  for  some  man  or  woman  to  give  something  of  a 


209 

decorative  nature  to  beautify  the  room.  Indeed  the  kind 
offices  might  be  extended  to  other  rooms  in  the  building. 

Although  no  record  is  kept  of  books  or  magazines  given  out 
in  the  building  an  attempt  is  made  to  keep  the  number  of 
readers  and  students.  The  number  for  1908  was  11,787,  2121 
more  than  last  year.  This  gives  but  little  idea  of  the  extent 
to  which  the  rooms  have  been  used  for  it  is  safe  to  say  that  a 
large  number  of  the  readers  are  never  counted. 

The  reference  work  has  been  a  large  part  of  the  duties  of 
the  year.  Often  the  students  have  filled  every  chair  in  the 
room  and  then  have  overflowed  into  the  reading  rooms.  This 
has  been  almost  entirely  personal  work  and  hands  and  brains 
of  the  entire  staiif  are  kept  busy,  explaining  the  uses  of  the 
reference  books  and  hunting  up  stray  bits  of  information.  It 
is  one  of  the  uses  for  which  the  library  exists  and  the  result  is 
worthy  of  the  effort.  The  additional  reference  books  pur- 
chased have  been  very  much  appreciated. 

The  larger  part  of  the  work  with  the  schools  has  been  done 
with  the  pupils.  Only  332  books  have  been  given  to  teachers 
for  school  use. 

A  beginning  has  been  made  during  the  last  few  years, 
toward  a  historical  and  genealogical  department.  Some  val- 
uable gifts  have  been  received  and  a  few  things  purchased. 
The  genealogy  of  New  Hampshire  given  by  Mr.  C.  A.  C. 
Hanson,  in  memory  of  his  father  is  a  most  valuable  acquisi- 
tion. Mr.  Stephen  D.  Wentworih,  has  added  to  the  collection 
an  old  account  book  used  in  connection  with  the  ''Wolfe 
Tavern"  which  at  one  time  was  located  on  Haven  Hill  and  is 
said  to  have  been  the  first  tavern  in  Rochester.  This  is  of 
great  interest  locally,  because  of  its  old  names.  Mr.  John 
Meserve  has  presented  many  interesting  old  things,  among 
them  a  sword  cane,  bearing  the  initials  "G.  W."  Tradition 
says,  that  it  was  owned  and  used  by  George  Washington,  also 
an  Indian  spear  head,  which  he  ploughed  from  the  ground  near 
Gonic  hill,  and  several  old  papers  and  books.  Mrs.  F.  C. 
Hayes  of  Wolfeboro  has  given  an  old  paper.     Cases   are    very 


210 

much  needed  where  such  things  can  be  carefully  preserved. 
Il  seems  a  pity  that  all  the  interesting  relics  might  not  be  col- 
lected from  the  attics  of  Rochester  before  it  is  too  late  and 
placed  in  the  library. 

The  Rochester  Woman's  club  have  made  it  possible  again 
this  year  for  the  library  to  have  access  to  all  the  pictures  of 
the  Library  Art  club.  These  are  both  instructive  and  enter- 
taining and  would  be  greatly  missed.  Many  useful  and  valu- 
able gifts  have  been  received  aside  from  those  already  men- 
tioned, as  it  would  be  impossible  to  mention  them  individually 
your  attention  is  called  to  the  list  appended. 

In  addition  to  the  regular  work  of  the  library  and  the  duties 
which  each  day  has  brought  forth,  an  inventory  of  the  entire 
library  has  been  taken  by  the  accession  number.  This  has 
been  a  long  piece  of  work  and  has  meant  the  handling  of  every 
book  in  the  library  but  the  result  has  beeu  very  satisfactory. 
All  but  eight  books  have  been  accounted  for,  errors  have  been 
detected  and  a  new  system  for  keeping  discarded  books  inaug- 
urated. 

Never  in  the  history  of  the  library  has  the  work  gone  on  so 
smoothly  or  with  quicker  or  better  service.  The  public  has 
been  courteous,  patient  and  appreciative  and  tbis  has  served 
to  encourage  and  inspire  to  greater  zeal  and  more  untiring 
effort.  It  costs  somebody  something  to  furnish  these  privi- 
leges which  are  often  accepted  with  such  thoughtless  indiffer- 
ence and  a  simple  thank  you  means  much  to  the  tired  attend- 
ant. 

I  wish  at  this  time  to  speak  of  the  splendid  work  of  the 
assistants  and  acknowledge  my  indebtedness  to  all  who  have 
assisted  in  the  work  of  the  library  during  the  year,  especially 
those  who  so  kindly  helped  during  the  long  illness  of  one  of 
the  assistants.  I  also  wish  to  thank  the  trustees  for  the  con- 
veniences which  they  have  provided  for  carrying  on  the  work 
and  for  their  courtesy  and  encouragement. 
Respectfully  submitted, 

LILLIAN  E.   PARSHLP:Y, 

Librarian.

REPORT  OF   THE  SUPERINTENDENT  OF 
SCHOOLS. 


To  the  School  Board  of  Rochester  : 

There  aie  many  matters  that  claim  atteutiou  in  this  report. 
Two  subjects,  however,  fu-e  of  such  preeminent  importance 
that  they  should  not  be  dwarfed  by  having  included  with  them 
matters  of  much  less  moment.  I  refer  to  the  growth  of  the 
schools  and  the  consequently  heavily  increased  expenditures 
in  the  school  department  of  the  city  budget. 

Each  year  persuant  of  the  slatules  of  the  state,  ;i  census  of 
children  of  school  age  is  taken  by  enumt^rators  employed  in  the 
city.  In  1907  the  census  showed  a  total  of  1485.  In  1908 
it  showed  1675,  an  increase  of  approximately  13  per  cent,  in 
one  year.  The  average  membership  of  the  city  schools  in 
1907-8  was  1117.  At  present  it  is  121S,  an  increase  of  8  per 
cent. 

This  increase  is  and  should  be  a  source  of  pride  to  us  and  to 
Rochester.  At  the  same  time  it  confronts  us  with  a  serious 
problem.  There  are, at  present,  in  the  city  three  rooms  having 
a  total  registration  of  over  fifty-f5ve  each.  There  are  ten  with 
a  registration  of  over  forty-five  each. 

I  wish  that  I  had  at  my  command  words  that  might  give  you 
some  idea  of  the  relative  quality  and  quantity  of  instruction  re- 
ceived by  a  pupil,  who  is  one  of  55  under  the  tutelage  of  a 
single  instructor.  1  need  not  refer  to  the  strain  on  the  teacher 
herself  in  attempting  to  keep  her  pupils  on  a  par  with  those  of 
her  colleague,  who  has  but  35  or  40.  There  have  been  within 
my  experience  in  this  city  three  instances  where  a  teacher   has 


6 

broken  down  under  the  strain    and    retired    in     discouagement 
and  invalidism. 

And  I  should  like  to  express  right  here  my  tremendous  ad- 
miration for  the  teachers,  who  without  a  whine  or  complaint 
grapple  with  the  problems  we  put  before  them  and  achieve  the 
success  that  is  theirs. 

Now  for  practicable  measures  looking  to  the  relief  of  these 
most  pressing  needs. 

The  overcrowding  of  the  mixed  third  and  fourth  grades  at 
Gonic  will  be  remedied  when  you  have  fitted  out  the  6th  room 
in  that  building.  When  that  is  done  the  facilities  will  be  suf- 
ficient to  accomodate  the  pupils  there  for  some  years  to  come, 
the  more  so  on  account  of  tlie  large  number  who  leave  school 
at  the  earliest  age  possible. 

In  East  Rochester,  by  the  establishing  of  a  new  room  last 
September,  you  have  provided  ample  room  for  present 
needs,  but  the  remarkable  increase  in  the  population  of  Ward 
one,  as  shown  by  last  fall's  census,  is  a  warning  that  may  have 
to  be  heeded  in  11)  lU. 

In  Meaderboro,  the  increase,  though  small,  is  serious  as  in 
that  school  the  work  of  the  entire  eight  grades  is  done  by  one 
teacher.  I  recommend  that  the  mininum  age  of  entering  this 
school  be  reduced  to  5  years  and  that  pupils  be  allowed  to  en- 
ter only  on  alternate  years,  thus  eventually  reducing  the  num- 
ber of  grades  taught  in  any  one  year  fiom  eight  to  four. 

In  the  cit}'  proper  conditions  are  more  serious.  The  Maple 
street  school  is  already  filled  to  its  capacity.  The  School  street 
building  had  so  many  pupils  last  September  that  some  had  to 
be  transferred  to  the  Allen  building  where  there  are  fifty- six 
in  the  first  garde  and  forty  eight  in  the  second. 

It  appears  from  these  figures  that  for  these  grades  two  new 
rooms  must  be  provided.  Moreover,  the  sixth  grade  room  in 
the  Allen  school  is  unfit  for  use  because  of  poor  light  and  ven- 
tilation. Again,  as  the  principal  points  out  in  his  report,  more 
room  is  needed  for  the  high  school.  This  makes  a  total  of  four 
rooms  that  should  be  provided  for  another  year  in  addition    to 


those  already  in  use. This  means  a  new  building. Such  a  building 
is  of  course  out  of  the  question  for  a  year  but  it  must  be  ready 
for  occupancy  in  September,  1910. In  the  meanwhile  by  utilizing 
the  Upham  street  building  and  by  continuing  the  cramping  of 
the  high  school,  we  must  make  shift  to  house  the  pupils  as 
best  we  may. 

Now  as  to  finances.  The  largest  item  of  expense  is  teachers' 
salaries.  At  present  under  the  rules  of  the  board  these  salaries 
are  graded  according  lo  length  of  tenure  of  office  beginning 
with  S360  and  increasing  yearly  until  S450  is  reached.  I 
should  like  to  see  the  minimum  raised  to  S370  that  being  an 
even  SIO  a  week.  I  should  recommend  that  the  board  investi- 
gate and  adopt  a  system  based  not  wholly  upou  tenure  but  at 
least  partially  upon  mej-it. 

A  considerable  increase  in  ihe  item  must  be  had  this  year  to 
meet  the  expense  of  the  new  rooms  established.  These  new- 
rooms  will  also  cause  an  increase  in  the  fuel  item.  I  would 
call  attention  here  to  the  resumptiou  of  the  practice  of  paying 
for  the  winter's  coal  out  of  one  year's  appropriation  instead  of 
carrying  part  over  into  the  following  year.  It  will  be  noted 
that  the  items  of  incidentals  and  books  and  supplies  have  been 
much  smaller  this  year  than  before.  This  low  cost  cannot  be 
contiaued  in  the  case  of  books,  and  supplies,  without  seriously 
crippling  the  schools.  I  hope  however  with  better  care  taken 
of  books  already  in  use  we  may  still  keep  this  item  below 
$1,500,  the  figures  of  two  years  ago. 

In  conclusion  I  will  say  that  the  expressed  purpose  of  the 
school  board  of  keeping  expenditures  within  the  sum  appropri- 
ated, has  been  kept  and  that  we  finished  the  year  with  every 
bill  paid  and  with  a  small  balance. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

ANDREW  JACKSON, 


REPORT    OF    THE     PRINCIPAL     OF      THE 
HIGH    SCHOOL. 


To  Mr.  Andrew  Jackson,  SivpQrintendent  of  Schools: 

The  total  registration  for  the  year  ending  June  1908,  was 
184  pupils.  At  the  close  of  the  fall  term  of  the  present  year 
the  same  number  of  pupils  had  been  registered,  and  the 
attendance  during  that  term  was  97  per  cent  of  the  average 
membership.  In  order  to  maintain  this  comparatively  high 
attendance  two  things  are  necessary.  First,  the  co-operation 
of  parents  is  needed  in  the  effort  to  keep  pupils  in  school. 
Second,  teachers  should  not  lose  sight  of  the  fact  that  it  is 
their  duty  to  make  school  work  attractive.  It  is  a  well  known 
fact  that  pupils  learn  most  readily  when  their  attention  is  fixed 
on  the  lesson.  Undivided  interest  and  good  progress  go  hand 
in  hand  with  regular  attendance  at  school. 

There  are  few  matters  of  more  vital  importance  to  the 
management  of  school  work,  than  sweeping  changes  in  the 
teaching  force.  This  problem,  confronted  us  at  the  beginning 
of  the  year.  Of  those  teachers  who  were  in  the  school  last 
year  Mrs.  Allen,  alone,  remains.  To  her  is  due  in  no  small 
measure  the  smoothness  with  which  the  work  of  this  year  has 
started.  Her  vital  interest  in  the  work  of  the  school  has 
appeared  in  kind  suggestions,  in  prudent  advice  and  in  the 
influence  of  a  personality  which  makes  for  good  in  every  pupil 
who  comes  under  her  instruction.  Four  of  the  six  new  teachers 
come  here  without  experience.  Mr.  J.  D.  Drew,  a  graduate  of 
Rhode  Island  State  College,  has  the  work  in  the  Science 
department,  and  has  charge  also  of  the  school  athletics.  Mr. 
Roland  E.  Chesley,  of  Dartmouth,  suceeds  Miss  Myrtle   Young 


9 

in  the  first  two  years  work  in  Rhetoric  and  English  composi- 
tion. Mr.  Chesley  has  assisted  by  organizing  a  school  Glee 
Club.  Miss  Miriam  Fifield,  of  Mt.  Holyoke  College,  comes  to 
the  work  in  French  and  Latin.  Miss  Dorothy  Fitts,  of 
Dorchester,  (Mass.,)  succeeds  Mr.  A.  W.  Wing  in  the 
Commercial  department.  Miss  B.  T.  Lull  t<^aches  Latin  and 
German.  Miss  Lull  is  a  graduate  of  Mt.  Holyoke,  and  has 
studied  in  Germany.  Her  preparation  enforced  by  previous 
experience  as  a  teacher  makes  her  especially  well  fitted  for  her 
work  in  the  school. 

We  have  in  the  High  School  six  members  of  the  class  which 
was  graduated  last  year.  At  first  thought  this  fact  may  seem 
to  indicate  a  favorable  condition.  If  this  school  were  equipped 
with  teachers  and  courses  for  study  beyond  that  offered  regular 
pupils,  and  if  graduates  not  contemplating  a  college  course, 
would  select  studies  in  special  preparation  for  business  they 
might  profit  by  a  fifth  year  in  the  High  School.  But  for  the 
pupil  who  intends  to  enter  college  and  who  comes  back  to 
review  woik  which  he  should  have  done  properly  during  his 
course,  such  study  seems  a  needless  waste  of  time.  Moreover 
this  loss  it  not  confined  to  the  fifth  year  alone.  During 
preceeding  years  the  pupil  feels  that  he  will  be  graduated  with 
his  class  on  an  implied  condition  that  he  return  and  make  up 
deficiencies.  This  state  of  affairs,  so  far  as  it  exists,  is 
unquestionably  wrong.  By  a  reasonable  amomnt  of  study  for 
four  years  the  average  pupil  can  get  that  preparation  which 
will  enable  him  to  take  up  profitably  the  work  of  a  college 
course. 

In  view  of  the  fact  that  many  of  our  pupils  have  not  kept 
their  woik  up  to  the  requirement  for  each  year,  it  has  seemed 
best  to  neglect  social  functions.  During  the  fall  term  the 
High  School  held  but  one  entertainment,  and  that  required 
little  preparation.  A  debating  club  consisting  of  members  of 
the  High  School  holds  a  meeting  once  in  two  weeks  for  practice 
in  parlimentary  rules  and  debating.  Living  questions  are 
discussed.     We  realize  the  need  of  drill  in  public  speaking   and 


10 

the  fitness  of  such  training  in  High  School  work.  Until  the 
beginning  of  the  second  term  of  this  year  no  part  of  our 
schedule  has  been  devoted  to  this  exercise,  but  opportunity  has 
been  given  in  the  English  classes  for  speaking  before  the  class, 
and  among  the  ??enio)s,  work  in  systematic  debating  has  been 
conducted. 

During  the  fall  term  the  High  School  received  an  appropriate 
gift  in  the  form  of  a  picture  for  the  Assembly  Hall.  This  gift 
came  from  the  class  of  1907,  and  was  formally  presented  to 
the  school  by  the  President  of  that  class.  Interest  of  this 
kind  which  the  alumni  show  in  the  school  cannot  be  too  highly 
appreciated. 

An  effort  is  being  made  to  gather  data  concerning  the 
occupation  and  progress  of  our  graduates.  The  purpose  of 
this  movement  is  to  stimulate  those  who  have  left  as  well  as 
hose  who  are  now  in  school.  It  is  hoped  that  such  data  may 
bring  those  who  are  now  in  active  life  into  closer  relation  with 
our  present  interest  and  this  insures  better  prospects  to  those 
twho  are  about  graduate. 

A  word  should  be  said  here  in  regard  urgent  needs  in  the 
High  School.  Some  slight  changes  in  the  Courses  of  Study 
should  .be  made  before  the  beginning  of  another  year.  The 
State  Department  requires  us  lo  have  for  school  use  reference 
books  which  are  not  found  in  the  school  or  in  the  Public 
Library.     They  should  be  provided  at  once. 

I  wish  to  thank  the  School  Committee,  the  Superintendent, 
and  my  fellow  teachers  for  earnest  support  and  many  helpful 
suggestions.

Classmates,  school  for  us  has  ended, 

Four  long  years  together,  passed, 
Years  of  joy  with  labor  blended. 

Now  we  leave  them  for  life's  tasks. 
As  our  thoughts  turn  toward  the  future, 

Which  in  mystery's  veiled  from  sight. 
May  the  paths  which  lie  before  us. 

Each  and  all  be  ever  bright. 
May  the  lessons  learned  in  school  days. 

Ever  keep  us  in  the  right. 
And  fond  memories  cling  around  them, 

Cheering  us  with  glad  delight. 
Now  the  hour  has  come  for  parting. 

Let  us  lift  our  hearts  above. 
Praying  God  to  guide  and  keep  us 

In  the  ways  of  truth  and  love.
