REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EDUCA-
TION FOR THE YEAR ENDING
MARCH 14, 1913.
Concoed, N. H., March 3, 1913.
To the Citizens of Union School District:
The Board of Education of Union School District hereby
presents its fifty-third annual report. It gives the Board
pleasure in stating that the schools of Union School
District have been maintained during the year with effi-
ciency and the results obtained have, as a rule, proved
satisfactory to all concerned.
It is with expression of deepest regret that the School
Board loses this year, by the resignation of Dr. Vannevar,
a most valuable member, who served the Board as its
President, was always wise, in counsel and had a warm
personal interest in helping to advance modern conditions
for the schools of the city. On the resignation of Dr.
Vannevar the Board elected Hon. George H. Moses to
fill the vacancy.
The interest in the Manual Training School is still
increasing and we feel that this branch of our school system
is working out successfully, with results that are highly
appreciated by the parent and pupil. The report of
Principal French you will find of interest and we feel that
the recommendations made by him should have careful
consideration.
The new system of grading and promotion suggested by
Superintendent Rundlett and put in operation by him,
with the approval of the Board, is proving satisfactory
and Superintendent Rundlett is deserving of much credit
for working out so commendable a system, which is attract-
60 CITY OF CONCORD.
ing the attention of noted educators, and the plan ha&
received much favorable comment from them.
The Board is confronted this year with the problem —
what shall be done with the Merrimack school? This is
the oldest school building in the district and has become
antiquated and out of date and, in the Board's opinion,
wholly unfit to be used longer as a school building. There
has recently been presented to the Board a petition signed
by a large number of taxpayers and residents, requesting
the Board to give their earnest attention to the matter
of providing a sanitary and safe school building for pupils
attending the Merrimack school. The Board of Educa-
tion fully realizes the unfavorable condition of the Merri-
mack school and feels it their duty to recommend to the
voters of Union School District, at the coming annual
meeting, the appropriation of a sum large enough to build
a school building that will take care of all pupils now at-
tending the Merrimack school, and also care for children
attending school from the section of the city north of the
Merrimack school for years to come.
We invite your careful attention to the report of the
superintendent and other reports, which we feel you will
find of interest.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON BUILDINGS
AND REPAIRS.
Concord, N. H., March 3, 1913.
To the Board of Education of Union School District:
We respectfully submit the following report showing
how the money appropriated for repairs to school buildings
has been expended; and also containing suggestions for the
coming year.
The work of more than ordinary nature may be summed
up as follows: A new heating and ventilating plant was
installed in the Penacook building during last summer.
The contractors were the Stone-Underhill Company of
Boston. This has worked satisfactorily in all respects.
A new tubular boiler was installed in the Chandler
school to take the place of the old one. The contractors
were the Lee Brothers Company. The boiler built accord-
ing to specifications required by the Fidelity and Casualty
Company is one of the very best.
The Eastman school was fitted up with metal weather
strips. This resulted in a decreased consumption of coal.
After deliberation it was decided to defer the installation
of a new heating and ventilating plant in the Merrimack
building until after the annual meeting in March.
The Bow Brook building was sold by public auction on
March 16, 1912, for the sum of $1325. In addition to
this amount about $80 was realized from the sale of old
iron, etc., which had been housed there.
All the pupils' desks and chairs of the Parker and Walker
schools have been repaired and refinished.
New forges, lights, and electric ventilating apparatus
for the forge room were put into the Morrill Manual Train-
ing school.
62 CITY OF CONCORD.
We believe the interests of the North End would be sub-
served best by the erection of one building on the site
of the Wal'ker School sufficient to accommodate about
five hundred pupils. If such a place were in operation
now the current expense would be decreased annually by
at least fifteen hundred dollars. This sum would pay the
interest on any bond issue that would have to be made.
The Merrimack building is old, ill-lighted and in many
respects unsafe. The lot is not well suited for the erection
of any school building the yard room being too sloping
and small. The west light at all times, especially in the
afternoon, is unfitted for and injurious to the eyesight of
pupils closely applied to study. The cost of putting in an
efficient heating and ventilating plant would amount to
more than the building would bring by public auction.
The buildings of the district are in quite good repair.
The interior of the new High school building should be
refinished during the coming summer. "This includes
kalsomining the ceilings and painting the walls.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT.
To the Board of Education of Union School District:
Ladies and Gentlemen: — The addition of another
year to the history of the schools of this district affords
me the privilege of submitting my twenty-eighth annual
report, the fifty-third of its series. Inasmuch as the report
of last fall is printed in this volume under Appendix I and
gives essentially the condition of the regular schools at the
present time, the greater part of this report will be devoted
to special interests. I invite your careful reading of the mat-
ter contained in the appendices.
School Attendance.
Thus far no problems of congested attendance have been
presented that cannot be solved satisfactorily. The high
school enrollment is phenomenally large, having reached
six hundred forty-eight pupils during the last semester, or
one hundred forty-eight more than the high school building
can accommodate. The number enrolled in the four-year
course is 211 per cent, more than in 1905, and 27 per cent,
more than in 1910 when the reorganization scheme began.
The number enrolled in the five-year course has increased
31.9 per cent, since 1910. The forecast for next September
is about the same as the present enrollment.

Manual Training.
The department of manual training has made steady
progress in pupil enrollment as well as in the amount and
quality of the work done. Methods of instruction and the
details of the courses have been improved. The school
has lost, by resignation, the services of Mr. Ira E. Brock
and Mr. Joseph H. Barber, and by death, Mr. Edward F.
Gordon. Mr. Gordon had been identified with this school
from its early days and his genial manners and wholesome
influence will never be forgotten by those whose good fortune
it was to have known him.
The principal asks for wood turning lathes and forges in
addition to those which were furnished last summer. The
repair work on all machinery is done by the school. The
annual exhibition was a delight and a revelation to the
five hundred visitors who attended. During the year
ending June 14, 1912, over 1,000 models were made by
pupils from the elementary schools, and over 3,300 drawings
by high school pupils. Wood-work representing over forty
pieces now in process of construction includes six library
tables, one Dutch-seat, five medium cupboards, five book
cases, three writing desks, two large mission rockers, one
large side-board and many smaller pieces. In the machine
department the following are being constructed, four 12-
horsepower, three 6-horsepower, and one 3-horsepower
gasolene engines, the best showing ever made in this line.
There are two printing presses in commission. In the
first year 45,000 impressions were made, last year 110,000.
The character of this work is uniformly excellent but its
chief value is vocational. The district has saved some
expense, but the outlay is in excess of the saving. The
expense must be accounted for practically by the benefit
the work brings to the students who take it and this is very
SCHOOL REPORT. 67
considerable. Since the beginning of the industrial classes
fifty boys have been enrolled. Seventy per cent, of those
leaving have adopted some mechanical vocation.
Domestic Arts.
The new course in Domestic Arts adopted by the Board
of Education in June, 1912, became operative in September.
It has for its object the betterment of the home. For a
number of years we have had instruction in cooking and
sewing fairly well organized. The technique of the work
done is first-class, but outside of these two departments
there has been no well-defined plan to raise the standard of
the home as a whole. It is admitted on all sides that there
is great need of this as evidenced by the unusual amount
of attention given it from the small city to the educational
department of the United States government. The course
is five years in length psychologically scheduled to suit the
conditions prevailing in the adolescent period. It is quite
well established that the requirements of the classical course
are not calculated to enable the girl of ordinary ability to
get the most from her educational life that she ought, and
as it may be inferred that the large number of girls in school
will eventually become home makers, it is of moment to the
public that they be given work which at once combines
culture and utility. We confidently expect that the course
now in operation will prove to be such an one. The local
demand for this work is shown by the fact that in classes
O and P, representing one year of school, fifty-six girls are
taking it. A copy of the entire course in detail has been
submitted to each member of the Board of Education.
Two full years of the course are now in operation and the
purpose is to add one year's requirements at a time until
it is entirely in effect. Mathematics as a requirement is
omitted after the first year. The course has worked well
as far as it has been tried except that the classes in cooking
and sewing have been too large. In one class we have tried
to carry on the work in cooking with thirty-three pupils,
68 CITY OF CONCORD.
but it could not be done to advantage. Fifteen is a reason-
able number for a class of this kind. As the course comes
into operation each successive year it will require additional
instructors and its success will be measured by their equip-
ment for the work in hand. These instructors must be
enthusiastic and prepared to teach the various requirements
of the course, household sanitation, household mechanical
appliances, housekeeping accounts, home nursing, house-
hold design and decoration, appreciation of art, apprecia-
tion of music, and the ordinary requirements in English for
secondary schools. They should have a breadth of knowl-
edge and method that will enable them to arouse and sustain
an interest in the work that one possessed of mere technical
knowledge would fail to bring about. Heretofore the money
spent for secondary instruction has been dominated largely
by academic requirements but as the secondary school has
come to represent the demands of ordinary living more and
more, the expenditure of money for instructors can well be
guided in part by these demands. It may be of advantage
for us to review what has been going on for the past ten
years in regard to the different branches. Taking the
number of pupils enrolled each year as a base we find the
following:
The number of pupils taking Latin since 1905 has
decreased 30.0%
The number of pupils taking Greek since 1905 has
decreased 13.4%
The number of pupils taking Biology since 1905 has
decreased 11.6%
The number of pupils taking French since 1905 has
increased 18 . 0%
The number of pupils taking German since 1905 has
increased 5 . 0%
The number of pupils taking Wood and Iron Work
since 1905 has increased 50.3%
The number of pupils taking Sawing since 1905
has increased 13.2%
SCHOOL REPORT. 69
The number of pupils taking Cooking since 1905
has increased 27.9%
This tabulation shows to what extent ideas are changing,
however much we may regret it, but this change is not with-
out its great significance. It shows that more pupils are
staying in school, staying longer and that the number who
go to school without definite purpose is on the decrease, so
that the saner adjustment of school courses will eventually
result in a better education for all.
Cooking.
There are 217 pupils enrolled in the cooking classes and
other branches of domestic science. Better discipline, and
a more wholesome interest have been manifest than last
year and the classes have been well taught. Twenty high
school girls were drilled in setting tables and in serving
luncheon to demonstrate cooking school methods before
the Concord Woman's Club. In addition to the course
requirements the classes in cooking have prepared the
following: 42 quarts peaches, 57 glasses of jelly, 23 pints
marmalade, 58 quarts of tomatoes, 6 quarts pickled pears,
8 quarts piccalilli. In September a special class for girls
was started in the cooking school under the direction of
Miss Harrington. The number, limited to six, has held its
membership full and has done creditable work with the
limited facilities offered. They have kept housekeeping
accounts including every item of expenditure of the cooking
and the industrial classes. They have made caps and towels
at cost for the cooking classes; caps, aprons, night dresses,
and simple dresses for themselves. Their household prac-
tice consists of sweeping, dusting, care of sink, cupboard
and icebox, and washing windows. They have laundered
595 towels for the manual training school, three dozen for
the high school and several dozen for the cooking school.
In the second semester the time of the cooking teacher was
so fully occupied as to make it necessary to have one of the
senior training girls on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
70 CITY OF CONCORD.
The course is now limited to one year. If it is to be
lengthened into a two years' course more convenient quar-
ters and an additional teacher much be furnished. In the
central part of the city no other room is available for this
work.
Sewing.
The most noteworthy changes in this department have
been the giving up of some seemingly useless work in models
and devoting more attention to the construction of useful
articles. The requirements of the domestic arts course are
of great practical value. In the first year classes M and N,
127 girls are at work making undergarments. In the high
school Group I, and Group II (Parker School), 74 girls are
cutting and making garments. In the elementary schools
333 girls are constructing models. Many requests come
from those who wish to work beyond the regular hours
but the time is all taken and the instructors cannot grant
them. Miss Stevens having been given a year's leave of
absence Mrs. Parsons, a former teacher in this school, was
employed in her place. Miss Mildred Phillips is also
employed forenoons. The school has been furnished with
new chairs, a new cutting table, a stand for hanging skirts,
four new sewing tables, and an additional sewing machine.
Drawing.
Although the attention given drawing in the elementary
schools has been much less than heretofore, the work has
been done as well as any supervisor could do it with such a
handicap. It seems to have outgrown the possibility of
being taught by one person. The time for the high school
pupils has been taken from the elementary schools. Last
year visits to these schools were made by the supervisor
once in every four weeks. This was not a sufficient amount
of attention, but this year the intervals have been increased
to six weeks. Six visits a year by the supervisor cannot
give regular teachers enough help. Next year with the
addition of two new classes in the high school, this school
SCHOOL REPORT. 71
must have at least twenty-one out of thirty periods a week
making it impossible to allow more than one visit every
eight weeks to the elementary schools. The only solution
seems to be the employment of an assistant at a nominal
sum to do at least a part of the elementary work under
the direction of the supervisor. The results in drawing for
the past few years have been more than satisfactory and
should be kept up to the standard.
The Dewey Training School.
This institution is of great value to the district because
it enables us to have the services of trained teachers who are
acquainted with our course of study, who have a personal
and a professional interest in its success, and are not so
liable to be called away to other cities, home interests
keeping them here. These young women are trained care-
fully, conscientiously and with rare judgment. They
begin to teach, serious minded, as a professional should be
and generally grow in strength as time goes on. During
their period of training they render the district valuable
aid in the various schools by helping deficient and backward
pupils. They are assigned to those buildings that do not
have the assistance of a special teacher and their service
causes no expense to the district save that of their training.
Valued in dollars and cents for the time given and based
upon the average salary of special teachers they are saving
the district at least twelve hundred dollars a year in extra
help. This is more than it costs to maintain the training
school. The regular schools in this building are models as
they should be. A Victor machine was kindly furnished
by the committee for use in marching and in calisthenics.
A class in Bancroft's Physical Drill gave an exercise before
the Merrimack Valley Teachers' Association this winter
showing to what perfection such work can be brought.
72 CITY OF CONCORD.
Music.
The demands upon the time of Mr. Conant by the domes-
tic arts course has caused a change in the schedule for the
elementary schools. The special work in this course began
in September with thirty-three pupils. Twenty-nine fin-
ished the work of class O and twenty-seven entered class
O in January. The pupils are interested and make steady
progress. The supervisor credits the Parker school and
the High school with unusual interest. In the former there
is fine singing, a good orchestra and special "musical hours. "
In the high school chorus there are 215 pupils, the largest
in the history of the school. The orchestra is composed
of eleven pieces, and the double quartette of mixed voices
is the best that I have ever heard from any school. Their
efforts, in the Merrimack Valley Teachers' Association and
before the Concord Woman's Club, merited general praise.
The instructor sees advancement along all lines but shows
his progressive spirit by saying that it should be better. I
believe it would be very difficult to duplicate the training
which pupils are receiving in music.
Night Schools.
Even though extraordinary efforts were made to secure
an increased enrollment |or the night schools in the city
proper, only two rooms were opened to accommodate a
smaller number than last year. For this I have been
unable to assign any satisfactory cause. The limited
number whose attendance was regular made quite rapid
progress in learning to read and talk the English language.
A longer term would have been welcomed by these people,
but the meager attendance would not warrant the expense
of continuing it.
During the fall term a request was made by residents of
West Concord for a night school there. This was begun
November 18, 1912, and continued for nine weeks. The
total enrollment here was 49, 38 males and 11 females. Of

Health in the Schools.
The good health of the pupils and the instructors is of
concern to the public, who seem alive to needful measures
for its protection. The Board of Education is not neglectful
of this phase of public school work. Through the care of
the sub-committee on hygiene extraordinary efforts have
been made to observe methods of improving the sanitary
conditions of the schools. We have modern methods of
heating and ventilating the buildings, sanitary drinking
fountains, individual pencils, paper towels, adjustable fur-
niture, oiled floors, the proper use of disinfectants, the
fumigation of school books and supplies, liquid soap, regular
exercises in calisthenics, and the valuable services of a
school nurse. It seems as if the germs of contagious disease
would give up their warfare in the face of this formidable
array of preventives; on the contrary, only the strict vigi-
lance of all will protect the pupils from increasing danger.
Sometime it will dawn upon the people that medical in-
spection is as needful for the pupils here as it is in other
cities and let us hope that it will not take a serious epidemic
and the consequent loss of life to bring this about.
Quite determined efforts have been made to induce the
parents to cooperate with the teachers in making children
observe proper changes in clothing before entering the school
room and upon leaving it. Attempts have been made also
to keep the schoolrooms at a lower and more even tem-
perature. These have aroused some opposition, but it was
almost always the result of a misunderstanding of the
nature of the orders given, for when they were explained
and the motive behind them made known the reasonable
side of the matter seldom failed to carry conviction. I
think I may, with propriety, in connection with this topic,
call your attention to the loss of health and the failure to
do school work by those children who are unfortunate in
the use of tobacco. Investigation made recently in one
western high school reveals the following facts: Twenty-
seven boys who never smoked averaged 84.5 per cent, in
SCHOOL REPORT 75
their studies. Fifty- five habitual smokers in school aver-
aged 76 per cent. Forty-five habitual smokers who had
left school recently averaged 69 per cent. -No doubt, that
during the period of adolescence when the nervous and
physical organism of children is undergoing a critical
change, this use of tobacco manifests itself in a loss of
moral, mental and physical tone resulting in discourage-
ment and the giving up of school life. The report of Miss
Murphy, the school nurse, may be found in Appendix I.
Waste of School Time.
The misuse of the five hours of school time allotted to
the pupil daily means the waste of public school revenue
to a like degree. This waste may be charged up in part
to lax discipline, absence of rational methods in teaching,
faulty arrangement of the school program, and bad appor-
tionment of the work.
A healthy discipline carries with it a respect for persons
in authority, polite manners on all occasions, and a whole-
some school spirit. Such a discipline breeds little discon-
tent, wrangling, scolding, sarcastic remarks, absence from
school, tardiness, and does not subordinate exacting work
to social pleasures. If these several things obtain in any
school it is at the expense of the continuous waste of school
money. In time gone by such things as enumerated
above have been passed over too lightly as being necessary
evils that attach themselves to the administration of school
affairs. If by analogy, we carried such judgment to the
affairs of professional or business life the percentage of
failures would be increased to great proportions. It is
likely that this waste caused by lax discipline can never
be even reasonably computed, but estimate alone should
cause serious thought to be given to it.
A study of rational methods in teaching should be a
requirement for a teacher of any grade. For a number
of years the elementary teachers and those of the first
two years of the high school have met in groups for this
76 CITY OF CONCORD.
purpose with gratifying results shown in a more reasonable
discipline, more rational teaching, a more fraternal spirit
between pupil and teacher, and a school atmosphere
clarified by the giving up of the educational bigotry which
distinguished the old time pedagogue. The following table
will give some idea of the extent of this work.

It may be of value to note the recent offering of $1,250,000
by Andrew Carnegie for the advancement of teaching.
This is called "The Carnegie Foundation for the Advance-
ment of Teaching." Of the income, $60,000 is to be devoted
to finding the best known ways of teaching and in experi-
menting to find still better ways. I beg leave to direct
your attention to the useless waste of time by boys and
girls of the Manual Arts and Domestic Arts classes in
going and coming from their lessons. Assuming that on
the average each pupil uses ten minutes each way, in a
week he wastes If hours, in a year 63 hours or two and
a half weeks of school time. Each girl for two lessons a
week loses just two fifths of that time. During the last
SCHOOL REPORT. 77
semester this loss has been decreased by allowing boys
of the Parker school to go directly to the Morrill school
in the morning four days of the week but such an arrange-
ment could not be made for the girls. I recommend that
the cooking school of the Chandler building be moved to
the high school and another smaller equipment be furnished
the Parker school. This would save the girls of the two
largest buildings practically all the loss of time now experi-
enced. It is quite possible that some better arrangement
may be made for sewing to avoid a similar loss. Much
scientific thought is now being directed toward the elimi-
nation of time waste in the school life of the child. It
has been conclusively demonstrated that private instruc-
tors can save from three to five years of the ordinary
school time and it is fair to suppose that even in the public
school, where mass instruction is a necessity, at least a
fraction of the time may be saved. In the last twenty-
eight years the time of doing public school work in this
city has been reduced from fifteen years to eleven. In
the country at large from fourteen to twelve. The next
twenty-five years may bring about still further reduction
by the elimination of all duplication and by scientific
management in general.
Kindergartens.
The attendance in the kindergartens has been appre-
ciably larger than last year. They have been conducted
on about the same plan as heretofore with results to cor-
respond. In the Garrison and the Tahanto schools the
scheme of having no regular assistant has been continued.
Should a commodious building be erected on the Walker
school lot one large kindergarten would be located here with
accommodations for the northern part of the city. The
supervisor has held the usual number of teachers' meetings
and also has given instruction to one young woman study-
ing for the profession.

Notes of the Year.
Washington's Birthday and Memorial Day were observed
by the schools as usual.
Health Day was observed in all the schools by special
exercises, and the following people kindly offered their
valuable services:
High School — Dr. H. H. Amsden.
Parker School — Dr. Marion L. Bugbee.
Chandler School— Dr. C. R. Metcalf.
Rumford School — Mrs. J. M. Fontaine.
Tahanto, Garrison, Dewey Schools — Miss E. M. Murphy,
school nurse.
Merrimack School — Dr. C. M. Duncan.
Walker School— Mr. W. T. Purrington.
An exhibition of kindergarten plays, folk lore games,
and physical drill was given by the consolidated kinder-
gartens, and the pupils of the Rumford, Kimball, Merri-
mack and Dewey schools, at White's Park, on Tuesday,
June 11, 1912, at two o'clock p. m. Over two thousand
people assembled to see them. The affair reflected great
credit upon the teachers and pupils who took part.
The annual exhibition of manual training, sewing, cook-
ing and drawing showed the same proficiency as in former
years.
The usual observances of parents' days have taken place.
The first parents' night at the Morrill School of Me-
chanic Arts was held on Thursday, February 27, 1913, at
the building. Unfortunately the weather was rainy and
kept away many who otherwise would have come; not-
withstanding, the attendance was large and appreciative.
On the afternoon of Friday, February 28, 1913, the girls
of the high school domestic arts classes and the industrial
class of the Chandler school representing the cooking
school taught by Miss Harrington served a luncheon to
the members of the Concord Woman's Club at their
rooms in the Parish Memorial House. The place-cards
and the bon bon boxes were made and decorated by

pupils of the drawing classes under the direction of Miss
Stalker. The menus were printed by the pupils of the
Morrill School of Mechanic Arts, Mr. French instructor.
The affair was very successful.
Many teachers have been called from the schools of this
district to other places. The loss of efficient teachers
at any time is serious enough, but occurring as it often
does in the working period of the school year the change
becomes doubly disastrous to the efficiency of the schools.
Many places evidently do not allow this variation of con-
tracts. Other positions made more attractive by larger
salaries and extended privileges have called away the
following teachers during the year.

Knowles, Mr. Harold C. Bales, Mr. Walter L. Barnum.

Conclusion.
The mission of a school report would be but half accom-
plished if it rested with the enumeration of a year's events.
Its broader field lies in calling attention to the construc-
tive forces which are to determine the future progress of
education. The popular conception of education in the
past has been determined by the measure of book knowl-
edge, but the present is asking and the future will persist
in asking, Are public school pupils healthy? Are they
socially pure? Are they obedient? Are they respectful?
Are they studious?
The past has been content to ask of the teachers, that
they be well equipped for the subjects which they are to
teach. The present is beginning to ask and the future
will persist in asking in addition, Have they rational meth-
ods in teaching? Have they habits to strengthen their
80 CITY OF CONCORD.
pupils by example? Do they give proper attention to the
individual pupil? Do they have a proper interest in the
general uplift of the community where they work? All
these questions vitally concern national life and civic
welfare.
The trend of constructive education takes form in the
following things: Agriculture, vocational subjects, the
public use of school grounds and buildings, pensions for
teachers, normal training for teachers, state certification
of teachers, continuation schools, compulsory school atten-
dance, technical and industrial education for elementary
grades, textile schools, etc.
There is a growing movement for a six-hour day for
secondary schools, also a strong tendency to reorganize
school systems upon the three-group plan similar to the
one in operation here but varying somewhat in detail
according to the local needs.
There is more or less talk of a university devoted to the
training of students for the profession of teaching, and
already sixteen or more colleges and universities have in-
stituted departments of education allowing credit toward
an A.B. degree for proficiency in the study of pedagogy.
The prevailing system of marking by points is being
mercilessly assailed and it ought to be. This in connection
with the abuse of the option privilege is out of temper
with the American youth in that it sets a false standard
by the substitution of driving for true teaching, by creating
an improper attitude toward study, and by subordinating
mastery of a subject to the attainment of a passing mark.
Those who defend such a system would do well to read
Milton's "Letter on Education."
The character of the work done in our schools is worthy
of the sanction of all. Its favorable review in different
parts of the country, the confirmation of its efficiency by
adoption of methods in use here, and its commendation
by noted educators in many different localities are all of
more than passing moment to the city. The consciousness
of this, however, should not cause us to become satisfied
SCHOOL REPORT. 81
with prevailing conditions to the exclusion of attempts
to improve nor to allow the horizon line of the broader
education to grow dim; rather should it result in expansion
regulated by the conservative application of our financial
resources.
Constantly reminded of my obligations to you the Board
of Education, to the loyalty and efficient work of a noble
corps of teachers, and to a patient, appreciative public,
I hope the repose of such confidence in me may be partly
justified by my devotion to the interests of Concord's

APPENDIX I.
Concord, N. H., September 26, 1912.
To the Board of Education of Union School District:
I am submitting for your consideration the second
annual report of the reorganization scheme put into prac-
tice two years ago.
Financial.
While a financial statement of this kind must involve some
estimates, there is enough that is definite, however, to give
it positive value. To enlarge the high school building
would have required an additional bond issue of at least
$30,000. The interest on this sum at 3| per cent, would
have amounted to $1,050 a year. From reliable estimates,
tabulations of which have been sent to the committee from
time to time, the district has been saved a current expense
of at least $5,000 during the two years, and we have been
enabled to discontinue two rooms which, at the maximum
salary, would have amounted to $1,300.
The scheme allows us to charge full high school tuition
for one year more than under the old plan. In two years
this has amounted to $459. The doing away with grad-
uations has saved the parents a sum of money which must
be arrived at largely by estimate. Basing this upon the
testimony of teachers, business men, parents, and pupils I
have no doubt that the saving in two years has amounted
to at least two thousand dollars, fourteen hundred of which
could be charged up to high school graduations.
There are other small miscellaneous expenses for which
I have given no estimate. Summing up the above we find
the following:
86 CITY OF CONCORD.
Bond issue $30,000
Interest on same two years at 3| per cent 2,100
Current expense 3,000
Rooms discontinued (salaries alone) 1,300
Additional tuition 459
Graduation expenses 2,000
Total $38,859
The average cost per pupil for the teaching force alone
has been materially reduced during the last two years as
may be seen from the following table:
High Elementary Avpra „ p
School. Schools. Average.
1909-1910— (Old Plan)* $33 . 14 $14 . 76 $23 . 95
1910-1911— (New Plan) 29.28 15.80 22.54
1911-1912— (New Plan) 26.47 14.09 20.28
Decrease in the average cost per pupil $3.67.
The net increase in tuition receipts is shown in the
following:
Year. High School. Elementary Schools*
1909-1910 $1,577.39 $576.66
1910-1911 1,863.37 453.97
1911-1912 2,301.31 454.90
Increase in two years 723 . 92
Decrease in two years $121 . 76
Net increase in two years. . . $602. 16
Of this increase $439 may be set down as additional revenue
from the increase of $27 per pupil in the additional year of
the high school course.
Teachers.
The teaching force has improved in equipment because
the high school curricula call for more than ordinary prepar-
ation.
* (This year, high school four years and elementary schools eight years.)
SCHOOL REPORT. 87
A college degree is required of all teachers in the four
highest years except those who were certified for the fresh-
man class by the state. Hereafter a college degree with
experience in the grades, or grade experience with extended
study should be made requirements for those who seek posi-
tions in the first year of the high school. During the past
summer vacation three teachers from Concord have taken
courses in as many different summer schools, connected
with leading colleges and universities.

Classes Q, R, S, T, U, V.
The number of pupils reported at the end of the year was
300.
The number of these attaining a mark of A— or better
was 14.
The number of these attaining a mark of B— or better
was 158.
The per cent, of the whole number attaining A— or better
was 4.66.
The per cent, of the whole number attaining B— or better
was 52.66.
The number not promoted was 2.34 per cent, less than
in 1910 and 1.94 per cent, less than in 1911.
The number leaving school was 1| per cent, less than
in 1910 and 3 3-5 per cent, larger than in 1911.
The number of A— pupils, while showing a gratifying
gain, still lacks 4 per cent, of reaching the standard of "ten
per cent, of the number enrolled."
This standard is not arbitrary, many educators placing
it much higher. The number of B— pupils showed a re-
markable increase and is 2.66 per cent, above the standard
of "fifty per cent, of the number enrolled."

The Sophomore Class.
Much interest attaches to the results attained by this
class because it was the first one of its kind under the new
scheme and because it was the best prepared freshman class
that has ever come within my experience. While it did
not maintain its freshman standard, and this was not
expected, nevertheless it did show strength by comparison
and confirmed the impression that the more modern ways
of conducting recitations are quite superior to those which
have held sway for half a century and are now slowly falling
into disuse. This is particularly manifest in the all impor-
tant matter of arousing an interest in school work which in
itself means advancement.
Comparing the yearly record of this class with those of
the past fifteen years we find the following :
1897—78 . 80% 1905—79 . 10%
1898—73.72 1906—77.50
1899—70.49 1907—74.72
1900—68.95 1908—77.86
1901—71.19 1909—77.26
1902—73.00 1910—75.27
1903—72.42 1911—76.29
1904—72.18 1912—76.70
The general average of the classes for fifteen years is
74.33 per cent., so that the 1912 class stood 2.37 per cent,
higher than this average.
That this class had ability and interest may be shown by
the fact that for the first two periods it averaged 80.63
per cent., while after twenty-eight weeks of high school work
it dropped to 78.52 per cent.
Class average for the first five weeks was 77 . 17%
Class average for the second five weeks was 84 . 10
Class average for the third five weeks was 78 . 46
Class average for the fourth five weeks was. .. .77.26
SCHOOL REPORT. 89
Class average for the fifth five weeks was 78.67%
Class average for the sixth five weeks was 78 . 37
Consulting the following table we find that the class stood
high in the following studies: Latin, Greek, Geometry,
Biology, Commercial Arithmetic, Drawing, Manual Train-
ing, Cooking, and Sewing.
The marks in English, French, and History were not
good. It is quite possible that much better work could
have been done in these studies.

In English the number of failures (2) was 19-100 per cent,
larger than in 1910 and 1.86 per cent, less than in 1911.
In Geometry the number of failures (10) was 4.31 per
cent, less than in 1910 and 13.56 per cent, less than in 1911.

Latin.
This was the first class to take sophomore Latin after a
year and a half of instruction under the " Morrison Method."
It would seem that the class was well fitted when we con-
sider that the classes immediately preceding had been
handled by a teacher who had specialized in this subject
and was widely experienced. The average of the class for
the first two periods was 81.22 per cent. For the last two
periods it was 79.74 per cent. A poorly fitted class would
show a reversal. The per cent, of failures was 1\ per cent,
less than in the class of 1910. The average per cent, of
sophomore classes since 1907 has been 80.6 per cent. The
average of this year's class was 79.3 per cent. In this year's
class no failures were reported. There is no doubt that
its former standing would have maintained if the method
of last year had been employed.
Other classes read the four books of Caesar's Gallic War,
approximately one third being sight reading.
This class read the following:
Sight Reading: two thirds of Nepos, one half of Ovid, and
many selections from Cicero, Rufus, and
Csesar.
Studied Reading: Nepos — Selected Lives of Great Men.
Ovid — Four Ages and the Flood, Pyramus
and Thisbe, Philemon and Baucis,
Orpheus and Eurydice, The Story of
Midas, Apollo and Daphne.
SCHOOL REPORT. 91
Compared with Freshman Record.
The number who exceeded the freshman standing was 9.
The number who equalled the freshman standing was 14.
The number who fell below the freshman standing was 89.
The number who came reasonably near the freshman
standing was 58.
The number who fell unreasonably below the freshman
standing was 31.
In the 1911 class there were no A— pupils, in this class
five.
In the 1911 class there were twenty-four B— pupils, in
this class forty-seven.
As a general conclusion we may safely say that the class
was one of unusual power and attainments. While its
sophomore record was creditable, its ability was not realized
nor its former interest in school work maintained. It may
be of value also to note the instances of those who have
entered other secondary and preparatory institutions from
this class and maintained their freshman standing in the
sophomore year.
High School — Group 2
{Parker School)
The amount of work done in this school measures up well
with that of last year in character and amount. The
per cent, of A— pupils was not as large, one class being
abnormally slow; however, it exceeds the standard of ten
per cent, of the number enrolled by 3.79 per cent. The
per cent, of B— pupils was materially larger than last year
and exceeds the standard by 18.53 per cent., a record
achieved in the face of many adverse conditions.
All the various activities have been carried on as usual
and the proper amount of interest in school work has been
shown.

Freshman Classes.
The class of 1912 compared with those of 1910 and 1911.
In Mathematics the number of failures (5) was 20.22
per cent, less than in 1910 and 4.62 per cent, less than in
1911.
In Ancient History the number of failures (1) was 7.13
per cent, less than in 1910 and 5.34 per cent, less than in
1911.
In English the number of failures (2) was 5.93 per cent,
less than in 1910 and 7.75 per cent, less than in 1911.

In Latin the nuiriber of failures (3) was 1.52 per cent,
more than in 1910 and 8.33 per cent, more than in 1911.
In Commercial History and Geography the number of
failures (0) was 5.12 per cent, less than in 1910 and 16.66
per cent, less than in 1911.
In everything but Latin the showing in one of unques-
tioned progress. Compared with the 1910 class, the last
one under the old method, it shows to good advantage.
Compared with the 1911 class it does not show up well
because the 1911 class was unusually bright and the 1912
class very much below the average.
Group 2.
{Eastman, Garrison, Walker, Kimball, Chandler and
Rumford Schools.)
These schools have been conducted upon the same lines
as last year but have not held up to the standard. Com-
pared with the class of 1911 we find that the number of
A— pupils dropped 4.41 per cent, yet was 35-100 per cent,
above the standard. The number of B— pupils dropped
10.87 per cent, and lacked 12.55 per cent, of reaching the
standard. From the following table one may see where the
difference occurred.

CITY OF CONCORD.
The showing may be due to several causes probably
largely to abnormally dull pupils centering in these classes
and in some cases the pupils were not well fitted when they
entered class M.
The decrease in the number of B— pupils is of more con-
cern than the decrease of A— pupils. These schools have
been conducted without friction and a healthy interest has
been manifest. The Latin classes were finely fitted and
individual help was given in all needful cases. There were
no breaches in discipline reported during the year.
In General.
As a general proposition the scheme has surpassed
expectations. Improvements in some of the groups have
more than balanced failures in others. More children are
taking the high school course than ever before, due in no
small degree, to the fact that under this plan many are
compelled by law to take the two first years of high school
course before going to work. This may be seen from the
following table.

Since 1910-1911 the increase has been 63 pupils in the
old four-year high school and 153 in the five-year plan.
SCHOOL REPORT. 95
As all of the newer branches such as commercial studies
and manual training were in force before that time it is
fair to suppose that a per cent, of the increase is due to
regrading. There is little prospect of the high school
building being large enough to accommodate the four
highest yearly classes for some time, perhaps never, in its
present form and the efforts of all should be directed with
force toward bringing about the least possible break in the
transition of pupils from one grade to another especially if
they change buildings at the same time. The methods used
should not only vary as little as possible but they should
be in accord with the ideas which the best pedagogical
thought has brought out in the last few years. The amount
devoted to educational purposes by the district is large and
its expenditure should call forth unity of effort from all
who benefit by it.

REPORT OF SCHOOL NURSE.
Superintendent L. J. Rundlett:
Dear Sir, — I beg leave to submit for your approval
my third annual report. Few branches of work offer such
opportunities for usefulness as that of the public school
nurse. Much has been accomplished in the past year
but we have not attained the maximum. The many
instances of change that give one courage, the interest
and appreciation of parents are gratifying. The physi-
cians have rendered valuable support and cordial cooper-
ation. There are no free clinics in our city but skilled
physicians have given their services when requested. The
hospitals also give care and treatment free. Parents pay
for service when they can but no one is denied care. Chil-
dren whose parents could not attend to treatment have
been taken to physicians and hospitals and their treatment
supervised. The most valuable work of a school nurse
is in following the child to the home to explain the trouble
to the parent and see that proper treatment is given.
These visits take a great deal of time and become delicate
and difficult tasks because one must be persistent to be
successful. Medical inspection is our greatest need and
it could be had with but little expense.
I most gratefully acknowledge the kindness and financial
aid of many who have helped make this work a success.
Let us remember that anything which tends to raise the
physical standard of the human being raises the standard
of citizenship in our nation.

PUBLIC LIBRARY.
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES.
To the Board of Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Concord:
The annual report of the librarian for the year 1912,
which is hereto annexed, shows that the work of the library
has been prosecuted with eminent success, in view of the ex-
isting conditions. A perusal of that document is recom-
mended to all who are interested in the educational welfare
of the city.
The trustees desire that the usual appropriation for the
support of the library be made for the present year.
Respectfully submitted,
R. E. WALKER,
President, Board of Trustees.
REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN FOR 1912.
To the Board of Trustees of the Concord Public Library:
Gentlemen, — This has been a year of steady and normal
work rather than of exceptional accomplishment.
The number of volumes purchased has been, 580
Received by gift, 28
Bound periodicals, 117
Total number of accessions, 725
Worn-out volumes withdrawn, 335
Total increase, 390
Number of volumes now in library, 31,625
The net gain to our shelves has been small but our addi-
tions have been well assorted, providing recent publications
for the thinker, latest handbooks for the worker and recrea-
tional literature for old and young.' Those who wish the
newest fiction can obtain it at small cost from two circulat-
ing libraries in our city — excellent enterprises with which
our library has not thought it desirable to compete by start-
ing a so-called "pay collection."
The desk circulation has amounted to 87,287, only two
books being lost out of this number. In 1911 the circula-
tion was 91,338. If we had purchased every book asked
for without considering whether such purchases were wise
and if we had bought unlimited copies of the stories by
McCutcheon, Myrtle Reed, Harold Bell Wright, Gene
Stratton-Porter, Ellis and Stratemeyer, we might not have
had a 4,000 decrease in circulation to report. But would
such a disproportionate expenditure of money be approved
by the most inveterate novel reader if she were at the same
time a taxpayer?
156 CITY OF CONCORD.
Ten years ago it would have caused us worry to find the
desk work falling short, but as every year is increasingly
crowded with entertainments in town, it seems inevitable
that fewer books will be taken out from a public library for
home reading when people stay less and less in their homes.
Our windows command a low-priced theatre and its
crowded entrance gives us food for thought; not for harsh
criticism, for persons perhaps see there that which instructs
or cheers; and we remember that the most commended
portions of Travelogs by men like Elmendorf are made up
of motion pictures. Moreover, an able paper lately read in
conservative England said that every well-equipped library
should own besides its customary lecture hall, a moving
picture apparatus which would do more than anything else
to help it be a great force in education. The loss in the
patronage of this librae has been chiefly an evening loss,
and I wish we owned the best cinematograph in Concord
and by it could win back those lads from the poorer classes
who used to flock in to our young folks' corner to hunt
for entertaining books; and that we could by it make habit-
ual customers of those children who frequent the library
only when pressed by their teachers to do so.
The Library Journal has hinted that our annual report
lacks statistics. I own to a neglect of them; yet they would
be given from a sense of duty if such tables of numbers
would give what statistics should, namely, facts. But until
public libraries agree fully in classifying and the method of
making records, one library will say it circulates 45.4 per
cent, fiction and another 77.6, and the fact will be that
both serve an average public in an average way; and that
recorded use is not the actual use I find emphasized by fel-
low-librarians. Our fiction reading hovers around the 70
per cent, mark; but as there is more work done by fewer
assistants in this library than in any of our acquaintance,
it does not seem desirable to take time to figure out that
fiction lost .005 of 1 per cent, in its hold upon a trustworthy
public.
But any remissness on our part in formulating tables of
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 157
statistics should be made up for so far as possible by un-
remitting observation, and for every sum we do not do, we
should make a note of the changes in the trend of public
reading, so that our institution may "function up to the
new needs of the times."
It would be ungrateful not to confess that now and then
we avail ourselves of the estimates made by other libraries;
for example, we learn through the always fine report of the
Grand Rapids Public Library that about 75 per cent, of
those who have registered at a library remain its readers.
We have over 9,600 signed application blanks; 650 new
names were added in 1912. Allowing for many cards having
lapsed without their owners duly notifying us, we are keep-
ing hold of a creditable share of 22,000 citizens, though far
below the number we want to retain. In one town the li-
brarian never uses the word borrowers, feeling that as the
library is public property it is a misnomer to employ a word
which implies that people are getting a favor rather than a
right. I will term anybody a first cause or an ultimate
object of the library if he will only take out often our worth-
while books.
Comparative librarianship is the study of our leisure
moments and it appears that we fall behind those librarians
who wage aggressive appeal, who send reminders to absentee
card-holders, who ask the use of school buildings for branch
libraries, who buy advertising space in street cars, who
send book-lists to be enclosed in shop pay-rolls, who write
circular letters to all in the City Directory living in homes
where no one is using the library, who send printed re-
minders to graduating boys and girls that this is a contin-
uation school, who pile up privileges for teachers, who make
model exhibits at State Fairs. Upon reading of these
admirable doings, I project a similar campaign but am
checked bj r the thought which amounts to certainty, that
superintendent and principals are too busy for that recom-
mended "persistent and systematic cooperation between
school and library"; and that in Concord, at least, many
interesting and beneficial classes have already been formed
158 CITY OF CONCORD.
which do not have a good attendance. How can one ask
.young folks to join clubs even to improve their literary-
taste, when one hears them complain of having too much to
do and sees some of them break down from a surfeit of
engagements to meet?
No, our library shall be as well stocked and as alluring
as modest funds and a crowded building will permit, and
attention shall be called to it as frequently as it seems wise
to ask the newspapers for space; but it must rely largely
on its merits for custom. Does it not go against the grain
of a library to have to keep coaxing people into it? Should
one have to burn red fire or beat a tambourine in front of
its reading room, which is light, warm, supplied with sixty
periodicals and located on a central street-corner?
We had meant to advance the library by extreme methods,
but conclude we lack the temperament that can push;
therefore we take this opportunity to say that we should
like to be asked to do any of the extension work outlined
above.
Meanwhile, because stagnation is death, we try to vary
the library attractively; witness the alcove in the School
Street hall where seats before shelves containing 200 new
books enable persons to browse as in a little bookstore.
The} r have taken kindly to the corner, and a traveling man
who read there on three occasions exclaimed,
"Oh, these comfortable New England libraries! I don't
know what I should do without them!"
In these days when children have to do so much supple-
mentary reading that they grow to regard the library as
another task-giver, it has been a welcome sight to see a
boy or girl take out a book in this alcove, sit down and
be lost to all thought of chores and the supper hour.
When at the other end of the hall was placed an exhibition
of large photographs of famous paintings, our little unpre-
tentious building had in humble measure the ideal atmos-
phere for a public library, inasmuch as art and literature
were there free to all.
If the appreciation of the new-book alcove continues
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 159
sufficient and no petty thievery is attempted, the feature
may be maintained longer than the month for which it was
arranged. Some of its patrons are surprised that we think
surveillance may be necessary; but it is a fact and perhaps
ought to be more generally known, that we are occasionally
troubled by mutilation and theft of magazines, by the
taking out of books without bringing them to the desk to
be charged and by the misbehaviour of readers, not merely
juvenile ones but those of high school and street loafer
age. It is discouraging to feel that as free as the library
is in every way, there are yet some who are abusing its
privileges.
I was in Ottawa last July at the time of the meeting in
that city of the American Library Association and with 150
out of the 800 delegates took the post-conference trip up
the Saguenay River. One may not learn much at a na-
tional gathering that she can introduce into her own small
library, but one cannot be a fortnight in hotel, steamboat
and shops without realizing from what she herself experi-
ences, that the essential of ministering to the public is
pleasantness. Is this an obligation, however, when dealing
with disorderly customers? Should the sentiment about
boys being boys shield them from sharp reprimand and
prompt ejection? This autumn when there came a recur-
rence on Sunday afternoons of trouble with young folks
who were not obedient to correction and were wilful rather
than thoughtless, it was decided to engage a man for Sunday
attendant. He has now been on duty nine times; he has
felt the need of arranging for the quick call of a policeman
on some occasions, while on other afternoons he has seen
as many as 76 readers come and go quietly; of these, 48
were male and 28 female. It is regrettable that more
transient people do not enjoy the reading room on Sundays;
those who come then are usually the ones who frequent the
library and are already familiar with its resources.
It is gratifying to see, through reports of other libraries,
that our usage both as concerns discipline and privileges
is in accord with that found advisable bv them. Each
160 CITY OF CONCORD.
had had to solve her own problems as intuition and experi-
ence dictated; but the resultant code of rules varies little
for all libraries. We alter ours seldom now except to
remove restrictions. This last year we have omitted with-
out perceiving any harmful results, the clause, "Persons
may not exchange their books oftener than once in three
days." Originally inserted to prevent children from over-
devouring stories, this regulation prevented our consistently
giving out material really needed by adults.
It was voted at our last annual meeting to issue a con-
tinuation to the fiction catalogue and accordingly Supple-
ment No. 2 was printed at a cost of 40 cents each. They
were put on sale at 25 cents each, but only $7.75 worth have
thus far been disposed of.
It is a pleasure to speak of the work of the Reference
Room for it has been good in quantity and quality. It is
impossible to keep accurate count of all who consult the
books on its shelves because many come to the room when
the attendant is at dinner, but she has recorded from the
beginning of the school year, i. e., the third week in Sep-
tember, to December 31, 1,620 inquirers; for December
alone, 345; for the entire year, 4,476, a gain of more than
500 over 1911. The information sought has been of the
miscellaneous character usual in reference rooms. In one
day Miss Brown looked up answers to the following
questions :
How do you make bayberry candles?
Should capital punishment be abolished?
Are the New Hampshire laws for the protection of ani-
mals well-devised?
What does induction mean?
What is the life history of a partridge?
• Who has the power to impeach the President?
Has the poor man more temptations than the rich?
How does public opinion stand in regard to railroad
rates?
Where shall I find a critique of Churchill's novels?
Have you any books on household decoration?

Can you give me late laws and articles relating to child

And while encyclopaedias, bound magazines and Poole's
Index were being consulted above stairs, on the first floor
varied demands were being met. Arrangement was being
made with the efficient secretary of the Y. M. C. A. to send
books monthly to the jail. A fit quotation was being
sought for engraving on a private Christmas card. A man
was consulting as to whether a certain subscription set was
worth buying. One of our valued customers was asking
what would enlighten him along philosophical and religious
lines and also what would assist his wife in writing a club
paper. The director of the Morrill School had come for
the purpose of ascertaining what trade periodicals we would
take for the coming year and how they could be used to
best advantage by his pupils. A foreigner was in for books
in French and to solicit us to pass along the notice that he
would teach that language. And the afternoon ended with
the willing loan of our bindery trays wherewith to move a
lady's private library.
A day like this is a very happy one to a librarian, no
matter how tiring it may be, for hers has fulfilled the modern
mission of a public library and become "more a fountain
than a reservoir."
It was President Faunce of Brown University (recalled
by Concordians as living when a boy where the Telephone
building now stands), who said to the Hartford Theological
Seminary that the public library should be a part of the
working capital of every pastor. It is pleasing to state
that the ministers of our city are keen to seize upon the best
we have in their department. I wish the same could be
said of the craftsmen; and we should welcome any sugges-
tion as to hew the library could be made more useful to
industrial workers.
From the questions instanced, it will be seen that inquiry
does not run as of old when the majority of subjects looked
up were literary. A librarian who grew up among standard

works is in danger of feeling intellectual snobbishness when
the rising generation does not know her old gods. A boy
learning to be a compositor in the Manual Training School
brings in for our revision his galley proof of a reading list
and it is rather a shock to see thereon titles such as : —
Heney Esmond
Idles of the king
The Vicar of Mansfield
The Outcast of the Breakfast Table
We happen to know that the Vicar lived at Wakefield
and to have had a lifelong acquaintance with the Autocrat,
but that boy knows things that we do not; he is going to
make a printer whose craftsmanship would amaze the un-
practical Vicar, and he is absorbing ideas from the beauti-
ful pages of Printer's Art instead of from the Atlantic Monthly.
A library, like an individual, has got to help people in their
way not in its way; it must feel no touch of resentment if a
man wants "Twentieth Century Socialism" and does not
want George Meredith's Letters. Enough if it has made
provision for the higher education of all citizens.
Personally I have this past year realized afresh that a
library can be something vital to an individual, for during
a period of ill health in the spring a book like " Nerves and
Common Sense" was a genuine tonic; and I believe that,
as is said in "The Human Way" (essays which are them-
selves most sustaining to the spirit), "There will always be
those who will have to lean upon the printed word."

HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
BOARD OF HEALTH REPORT.
To the Mayor and Board of Aldermen:
The Board of Health submits the following report for
the year ending December 31, 1912.
Regular meetings have been held on the first Monday of
each month. At these meetings considerable business of a
routine nature has been transacted, bills scrutinized and
matters pertaining to the health of the city discussed with
the sanitary officer and others who were present.
The city has been singularly free from epidemics of con-
tagious disease during the past year, and as a natural con-
sequence no extraordinary action has been required of this
board.
The report of the sanitary officer, Mr. Palmer, and that
of the milk inspector, Dr. Duncan, shows in some detail
the work coming under the supervision of this board.
These reports are hereby transmitted and made a part of
this report.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES J. FRENCH, Mayor,
CHARLES H. COOK, M. D.,
F. A. SPRAGUE,

REPORT OF THE MILK INSPECTOR.
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen, — The records of all milk examinations are
tabulated in the general department report. These records
as soon as made are a matter of public record in the office
of the Board of Health.
Examinations show that the milk sold in Concord is a
wholesome, clean milk in most cases. We can frankly say-
that with one exception it is the best milk sold in any city
in New Hampshire. Not all milk sold is equally good.
The best milks are those that come from farms owned and
operated by the man who brings our milk to the door.
Personality has a great deal to do with clean milk. The
best milk plants in the city lose their value immediately
when a careless "hired man" contaminates through igno-
rance or otherwise the working apparatus of that plant.
The inspector cooperates with the retailers of our city
in every way. I was present by invitation at their annual
meeting and listened with great interest to their discus-
sion of the conditions about Concord. In a talk to them
I made clear our methods of examination of milk and showed
how the "filtration test" is managed, by performing the
test before them, and invited their cooperation with the
inspector for cleaner milk.
The men do cooperate with the inspector, and examina-
tions made for them to detect adulteration in milk they buy
for their trade is a routine procedure. Often I am called
upon to pass upon a milk for taste, odor or color, due to
bacteria in the milk in most cases, but in others due to dis-
ease of cow. Most complaints the inspector receives are
from milks of the last mentioned character and in some
cases the fault lies with the consumer as well as the retailer.
The guinea pig test for tuberculosis is still a routine pro-

cedure. It is our only safeguard without the aid of the
tuberculin test to protect the public from milk containing
the germ of tuberculosis. One positive test was found dur-
ing the year and the condition corrected.
The public should be taught to use milk only from tuber-
culin tested cows. There is no means at present to force
this test upon those who raise milk in our city, but there is
a spirit among the farmers to go more than half way with
any means that might be devised to have the test done, if
the cost could be made reasonable. The state takes no
action in such matters but there is every reason that the
matter should be seriously considered by both city and
state as the only means by which we can be sure we are
not consuming tubercular contaminated milk.
Yours truly,
CHARLES DUNCAN,
Milk Inspector.
REPORT OF THE SANITARY OFFICER.
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen, — The report of the sanitary officer for the
year ending December 31, 1912, is herewith submitted,
giving the various tables which show in detail the work of
the department.
With the exception of a slight epidemic of measles in
February and March which continued until after the school
closed in June, the city was remarkably free from contagious
diseases. During the year there were reported 17 cases of
diphtheria with 1 death; 7 cases of scarlet fever with no
deaths; 15 cases of typhoid fever with 4 deaths; 321 cases
of measles with 2 deaths and 2 cases of infantile paralysis
with 1 death, making a total of 362 cases and 8 deaths, com-
pared with 95 cases and 6 deaths for the year 1911. Cases
of whooping cough, chicken pox and mumps are not re-
ported to this department.
There were 466 deaths returned for the year 1912, 7
more than in 1911. The deaths of non-residents and still
births, which totaled 181, were not included in reckoning
the death rate. With these omitted the death rate, based
on a population of 21,497, was 13.25, compared with 13.34
in 1911. There were 252 deaths in the nine wards of the
city and 214 deaths at the public institutions. The mor-
tality from tuberculosis was such lower than ever before,
there being only 15 deaths for the year 1912, 14 less than
in 1911, 17 less than in 1910 and 25 less than in 1909.
This shows a steady decline which is certainly gratifying.
There were 189 bodies removed from Concord for burial
in other places and 129 bodies were brought here for inter-
ment.
The use of formaldehyde was continued in fumigation
and your attention is called to the table which shows the

amount of work done in this line. The school books owned
by Union School District were fumigated at the close of
school in June. Besides the fumigation after recovery or
death from contagious diseases, rooms were fumigated upon
request in a number of instances for various causes, the
material being paid for by the owner.
The plumbing jobs completed during the year complied
with the regulations, water tests being made of all new
work and peppermint tests made of old work upon request.
Several changes were made in our plumbing rules when the
City Ordinances were revised.
Inspections were made of all the barber shops in our city
and with one exception conditions were found to be good
and the rules governing barber shops were being complied
with.
Samples of Penacook Lake water were analyzed at the
State Laboratory at different times and found to be satis-
factory. A sample of water taken from the well at White
Park in June showed no improvement over past anaylses,
and a new well was driven later in the month which showed
water practically identical in character. When this water
was found to be unsuitable for public use, arrangements
were made for the use of city water for drinking purposes.
In our efforts in carrying out the vaccination law in
Union School District, in private and parochial schools and
in the schools in Penacook we have received the hearty
cooperation of the school boards, superintendents, princi-
pals and teachers, and have had no trouble in producing
satisfactory results. But in the out-lying districts we have
been opposed by the school board, the superintendent and
the teachers, with two exceptions, and have received no
assistance whatever. I have been obliged to exclude chil-
dren from school and also to call on the city solicitor for
his services in bringing about such results as have been
obtained, and I recommend to the law abiding citizens of
the out-lying district to elect such persons to office as will
not oppose the carrying out of the laws that govern our
state and city.
168 CITY OF CONCORD.
The appropriation for the Health Department for the
year 1912 was $2,600 and the expenses were $2,542.92,
showing a balance of $57.08. We received $31.01 from the
sale of antitoxin and fumigation supplies. Owing to the
small number of cases of diphtheria it was unnecessary to
purchase antitoxin, there being a supply on hand at the
close of the year 1911. This antitoxin was returned to the
manufacturers when it became out-dated and a fresh supply
was sent us in exchange.
In closing this report I wish to thank the Mayor and the
other members of the Board of Health, the members of the
city government, the city solicitor and all others who have
given me advice and assistance during the year.

In summing up the work on the parks for the past year,
it can only be a rehearsal of the character of the work in
former years, yet in the review of the last year some progress
has been made. The iron fence has been extended along
Center Street at White Park, leaving only about two hun-
dred feet to complete this side. It is hoped to begin on
White Street, which with a suitable entrance would add
greatly to the utility and preservation of the grounds.
A sanitary drinking fountain was placed at the White
Street entrance and it has proved a convenience and others
should be installed. In June the use of the park was given
to the schools of the city to inaugurate the Folk Dances
which had been practised in the schools. It was a most
PUBLIC PARKS. 197
successful event and it would have been hard to find a more
beautiful setting for the occasion. It is hoped that it will
be repeated from year to year.
The usual work at Rollins Park has been carried on and
the grounds have presented a splendid effect. The play-
ground south of this park has been developed this year more
than ever by united efforts and it has proved a success.
The superintendent, Mr. Atkinson, has been diligent, in
making the most at hand to maintain the character of the
work on the parks during the past year.
At the request of the mayor, the superintendent has cared
for the plants and flowers at Memorial Arch.

REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
To the Board of Aldermen:
In accordance with the requirements of the city ordin-
ance, I herewith submit for your consideration the report
of the Fire Department for the year 1912.
The department responded to 63 bell alarms and 192 still
alarms.
In addition two fires occurred in Penacook for which
no alarms were given, making a total for the year of 257,
a decrease of 58 compared with the record of the previous
year.

This report will be found to contain statements in de-
tail 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
occurred during the year and the causes thereof as nearly
as could be ascertained, with the names of the owners or
occupants and the value, loss, insurance, and insurance re-
covered in each case.
No particularly dangerous fires occurred during the year
and there was a marked decrease in the number of forest
fires.
202 CITY OF CONCORD.
The largest loss accompanying one fire was that entailed
by the lumber yard fire at Penacook June 29th.
The apparatus is in good condition and no extensive
repairs were required during the year.
The fire alarm telegraph systems of the city proper and
Penacook are in good condition.
It was found necessary to renew the battery elements of
the former in June.
Two boxes, 131, 191, for use in the northwest section of
the city were purchased but not delivered in time to be
placed in position before the close of the year.
Eight hundred feet of 2^-inch hose and three horses were
purchased.
The Alert Station was remodeled and the wagon is now
running as a two-horse wagon.
This leaves but one one-horse wagon in the precinct and
I respectfully recommend that this be made a two-horse
wagon.
I also recommend the purchase of at least 500 feet of
2|-inch hose during the coming year. One noticeable
improvement made during the year was the installing of
a standpipe in the Central Station with hose connections
in basement and on first and second floors.
The expense of this as well as that attending remodeling
the Alert Station was borne by the Committee on Lands
and Buildings. During the month of September, I had the
pleasure of attending the convention of the International
Association of Fire Engineers held at Denver, Col., a report
of which I rendered at that time. The convention was a
largely attended and instructive one and for the privilege
afforded me to learn I was sincerely grateful.
Respectfully submitted,
W. C. GREEN,
Chief Engineer.

is the "Gamewell" patent. It embraces 42 miles of wire.
On the lines are 46 fire-alarm boxes belonging to the city,
and 10 private boxes— in all, 56. There are three alarm
bells, one of 3,724 pounds (bell metal), one of 3,740 pounds
(bell metal), and one of 2,000 pounds (American steel).

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.
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.

For the purpose of testing the condition and accuracy of
the fire-alarm telegraph, a box alarm will be rung in every
Saturday afternoon at 12.50 o'clock precisely. It will be
one single round only, indicating by the strokes on the bells
the number of the box. The boxes used for this purpose
will vary each week, alternating in the circuits.
16
242 CITY OF CONCORD.
Upon each other week-day a single blow upon the bells
will be rung in from a box, alternating as before mentioned.
Directions For Giving an Alarm.
To open the box, break the glass and turn the key.
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 the whole length of the slot, 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.
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.
The Penacook fire-alarm system was installed in June,
1908, under direction of the chief engineer.

Recommendations.

patrol automobile, and I recommend the purchase of one.
I also recommend the appointing of two more patrolmen.

Conclusion.
I will take this opportunity of expressing my apprecia-
tion to His Honor, Mayor Charles J. French and the Honor-
able Board of Aldermen, Judge George M. Fletcher, and

courtesies extended to me during the past year.
I also wish to thank the officers and patrolmen for their
valuable assistance and loyal support in enforcing the laws
and maintaining the efficiency and discipline of the Police
Department.

GEORGE A. S. KIMBALL,

REPORT OF CITY ENGINEER.
City Engineer's Office, City Hall.
Concord, N. H., December 31, 1912.
To the Board of Mayor and Aldermen:
In compliance with the ordinance creating this depart-
ment, the twentieth annual report showing the expendi-
tures and operations of the engineering department for the
year ending December 31, 1912 is herewith submitted:

condition of the sewers in the city precinct, will be found
in the report made to the Board of Public Works covering
the work done under their supervision.
268 city of concord.
Water Works.
Considerable time was spent in making surveys for pro-
posed additional storage at Penacook Lake, flowage areas
computed and much valuable data secured for future use.
Fire Department.
Plans showing the location of the hydrants and fire-
alarm boxes, both in the city proper and in Penacook,
were brought up to date, prints of same made and turned
over to the chief engineer of the department.
Building Permits.
Together with the chief engineer of the fire department
I have attended twenty-six hearings, on petitions for new
buildings and for alterations to existing structures.
Twenty-five petitions were granted and one petition was
referred to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
Cemeteries.
No new blocks were laid out the past season, but in
company with the superintendent of cemeteries we have
formulated plans for additional lots during the coming
season and all material available for grading has been used
to the best advantage in grading the new portion.
The deed books have been brought up to date, covering
the lots sold and transferred during the past year.
Town Lines.
The lines between Concord and the towns of Webster,
Boscawen, Canterbury and Loudon were perambulated
during the fall of 1912, together with the selectmen of said
towns, or, a portion of their boards.
REPORT OF THE CITY ENGINEER. 269
The old bounds were found in good condition with the
exception of one on the Boscawen line, which is situated on
the "Island," so called, where the plant of the Symonds
Table Company is located.
The old bound was broken off and had to be replaced.
This was done by the city paying for the bound and cutting
same, the town of Boscawen transporting the bound to its
proper location and setting the same. Your engineer was
present at the setting of the new bound and saw it placed
in the ground on the location formerly occupied by the old
one. The new bound is much more substantial than the
old one and should not be disturbed by future freshets.
Streets.
Linden Street, in Ward One, was laid out and accepted
for a distance of four-hundred feet and grades established.
Home Street, running easterly from Hall Street for a
distance of 926.65 feet was laid out and grades established.
River Street, in West Concord, was laid out with the
usual provision, that the abuttors rough grade the street,
for a distance of 393.9 feet.
Gladstone Street was extended 100 feet as an accepted
street.
The above changes make our street mileage as follows:
In the compact portion of the city 44.94 miles and in the
outlying districts 126.33 miles, a total of 171.27 miles of
streets and highways in the town.
Lines and grades were given for macadam roadways on
South Street, North State Street, in West Concord; for
gravel roadway on the Loudon road and for new concrete
sidewalk construction and for other work of the street
department when requested.
The usual monthly measurements of concrete sidewalks
were made during the season for this work, and statements
showing the square yards laid, cost and location of the
same made and delivered to the superintendent of streets.
270 city of concord.
Assessors' Maps.
The field work on these maps was carried on as usual
during the summer months. We have now covered the
territory lying west of the Merrimack river and plans cover-
ing this territory will be ready for the assessors in April
1913.
The special appropriation for this work was $1,000, of
which amount $994.73 was expended. The balance was
carried to the credit of the engineering department.
Many pieces of property are still carried as estates of
former owners, and it requires much time and labor to
properly show ownership of them.
It is surprising to note the number of unsettled estates
and the number of people who do not record their deeds.
Many deeds are very indefinite in their descriptions and
we have not tried to settle disputes over property lines
but show the various properties as they are occupied.
The general filing of inventories the past season aided us
in many cases to place property which was obscurely located
and hard to locate without the aid of plans and deeds.
We have now listed about forty-five hundred owners and
their property shown on plans. Many of these owners have
several tracts of land and the above number does not indi-
cate the number of tracts shown.
Miscellaneous.
Grades were given the committee on playgrounds at the
Kimball playground and a start made to properly grade
this lot. Owing to the small appropriation available the
results obtained were not all that could be desired.
Street lines and grades for private parties have been
given as desired.
Meetings of the Board of Aldermen, the Board of Public
Works and committees of the Board of Aldermen have been
attended when requested and information given or acquired
for their use.
REPORT OF THE CITY ENGINEER. 271
The labors of the Board of Examiners of Plumbers and
the Hydrant Commissioners are set forth under their
respective headings, in reports to your Board.
The employees of this department during the past sea-
son were :
Fred W. Lang, principal assistant; Forrest F. Owen,
assistant; Orion H. Hardy, transitman; William E. Nash,
Harrold H. Betton, George W. Burke and Earland B. Cook,
rodmen.
To the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen, I wish to
express my appreciation for the many courtesies shown.
Respectfully submitted,
WILL B. HOWE,
City Engineer.

REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
Office of the board of Water Commissioners,
Concord, N. H., February 24, 1913.
To His Honor the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen:
The Board of Water Commissioners transmits herewith
the report of the superintendent, exhibiting in detail the
operations of the department for the year ending December
31, 1912, together with the report of the engineer of the
pumping station, which documents are made a part of
this report.
The works have continued to meet all reasonable demands
upon them and the supply has been abundant for domestic
purposes and for fire protection.
The report of the superintendent shows that the expen-
ditures for repairs and extensions have been comparatively
small for the past year.
The pump which was installed in 1892 in connection
with the high service system will require a considerable
expenditure the coming year to put it in first-class condi-
tion, but the auxiliary pump which was installed in 1904
will undoubtedly furnish an ample supply while the repairs
are in progress.
The board has been confronted with a serious problem
by the appearance of the gypsy moth in the grove adjoining
Penacook Park, which seriously threatened not only the
growth on the tract controlled by the board, but also
that under control of the park commission and that in
the city lot.
The city government has taken steps to endeavor to
control the ravages of the pest and it is hoped the effort
will be successful.
In the report of the board for the year 1911, it was
stated that it was probable that it would be possible to
anticipate the redemption of $15,000 of the water bonds
280 CITY OF CONCORD.
during the year 1912. The decreased expenditures for
repairs and extensions have permitted the redemption of
$41,000 of the water bonds during the year, of which
$32,000 were due January 1, 1922.
The following statement of the amount of bonds issued
for the construction of the works, the amount paid and
the balance outstanding January 1, 1913, will undoubtedly
prove of interest to all citizens of Concord:
Total amount bonds issued, $1,140,000.00
of which, 420,000.00
were refunding issues.
Net amount bonds issued, $720,000.00
Total amount bonds paid, $628,000.00
Paid by refunding issues, 420,000.00
Net amount bonds paid, $208,000.00
Bonds outstanding January 1, 1913, 512,000.00
Net issues as above, $720,000.00
The construction account of the Concord Water Works
to January 1, 1913, is $1,027,659.86.
The debt on above account, January 1, 1913, is $512,000.
Paid from earnings of system, $515,659.86.
The board desires to commend its emplo} r ees in all
departments for the intelligent and faithful performance
of their duties.

The lowest point reached during the year was on March
10, being 175.85; the highest was on June 10 and was 181.40;
mean height for the year was 178.86 which was 1.26 feet
higher than the mean height for the year 1911.
A chart showing the rise and fall of the water in Penacook
Lake during the years 1908, 1909, 1910, 1911 and 1912 is
included with this report. It will be seen that the lake
shows at the end of each year for the first four years, a net
loss of head; the several years showing,
a loss of 4.85 feet from Jan. 1, 1908, to Dec. 31, 1908,

" " " 1.40 " " " 1, 1911, " " 31, 1911,
making a total loss of head of 8.50 feet from January 1,
1908, to December 31, 1911.
The year 1912 shows a net gain of 1.60 feet from January
1 to December 31.

The rainfall for the past six years was as follows:
1907,
39.36 inches
1908,
26.25 "
1909,
30.94 "
1910,
30.19 "
1911,
34.13 "
1912,
36.43 "
The normal amount of rainfall is 40.11 inches and these
figures are given in order to show the effect of the less than
normal amount upon the lake during the past few years.
There being but few calls for extensions this year, the
work of the department has been mainly the extension of
the high service system in the section as already noted in
this report. These lines are connected directly to the 20-
inch main in North Main Street with the exception of
North Spring Street which is an extension from the Pleas-
ant Street 10-inch main. The ten hydrants which have
been set on these lines are 8-inch, four-way, independent
nozzle valve hydrants and are connected to the mains by
8-inch laterals. With these extensions, the high pressure
service is enabled to be of protection to a much larger
district than heretofore. The class of property thus pro-
tected includes public schools, churches, business blocks,
apartment houses, the Y. M. C. A. building and the Central
Fire Station. The total cost was $6,023.60.
All hydrants have been tested regularly and thoroughly
examined and left in the best possible condition.
During the months of February and March we* had a
large number of frozen services owing to the unusually cold
winter. The process of thawing water pipes by the use
<of electricity is familiar to many water departments but
its application to water pipes in Concord was tried for the
first time this year and found to be very satisfactory. A
transformer was purchased from the Cushman Electric
Company and with the assistance of the Concord Electric
Company, the services connected to iron mains were thawed
WATER DEPARTMENT. 293
by this method. The time occupied in thawing a service
was generally from eight to fifteen minutes after connecting
the wire to the pipes, and we were enabled to thaw some
services which otherwise would have had to remain frozen
until spring.
There have been relaid 32 services in streets that were to
be resurfaced and curb-stops were placed on 21 old supplies.
We continue to use cement-lined wrought-iron pipe for
all services, being convinced that for our water supply it
has no superior.
The three-year-old pine seedlings raised by the depart-
ment were transplanted to permanent locations around the
lake and five thousand four-year-old seedlings were pur-
chased from the Concord Electric Company and also set
out. These have thrived in almost every case, very few
having died for any reason.
Gypsy moths are beginning to make their presence known
upon our water-shed and with the help of the brown-tail
moth are doing considerable damage. It will be necessary
to remove the hard wood in the infected districts to stop
their destructive work and further spread.
There are not many requests at present for extensions in
1913 and it will not require a large amount of pipe for new
work.
Our office equipment has been greatly improved by the
addition of an addressograph to be used in making water
bills and in addressing postal card notices, and a graphotype
for making the metal plates used in the addressograph.
In conclusion, I would express my appreciation of the
continued support and cooperation of your board.
Respectfully submitted,
PERCY R, SANDERS,
Superintendent.

REPORT OF THE ENGINEER OF THE
PUMPING STATION.
Pumping Station, Concord Water Works.
P. R. Sanders, Superintendent,
Sir: — I would report that the pumping machinery at
the pumping station will need some repairs the coming
year.
Air pump on Pump No. 2 will need new sleeves on the
water end very soon as they are badly worn and do not
hold up a good vacuum.
Pump No. 1 will need a general overhauling which will
put the plant in good working condition for some years
to come.
During the past four years the pumping has decreased
on an average of eight million gallons a year which would
show that the capacity of the plant is sufficient for some
years.
The boilers have been inspected within three months
and pronounced in very good condition.
Following is a statement of coal and other supplies . used
at the pumping station during the year, with a table showing
the work for each month.
Statement.
126 tons 1,023 pounds New River coal.
9 tons 1,822 pounds Cumberland coal.
104 tons 1,537 pounds Pocahontas coal.
81 gallons valve oil.
12 gallons engine oil.
36 pounds waste.
13 pounds grease.
11| cords slabs.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC
WORKS.
To the Board of Aldermen:
In compliance with the city charter, the Board of Public
Works herewith submits its second annual report for the
year ending December 31, 1912.
The board has held forty-seven meetings, eleven of which
were hearings held in various parts of the city on the premi-
ses covered by the petitions considered.
One hundred and eight petitions have been presented to
the board; seventy-six petitions have been granted; in eight
cases the petitioners have been given leave to withdraw; in
six cases the petitions have been referred to the proper
officials with full power.
A contract made between the City of Concord and the
Concord Electric Company for lighting the streets with
electricity, for a period of ten years, expired September 1,
1912; also a contract made between the City of Concord
and the Concord Light & Power Co. for lighting the streets
with gas, for a period of five years, expired December 30,
1912. The board has under consideration a contract with
the Concord Electric Compariy for lighting the whole city
with electricity, which the Board of Public Works consider
advantageous to the city.
For a detailed account of work on streets and highways,
garbage and sprinkling precincts, including receipts and
expenditures, see report of superintendent of streets, here-
with appended.
For report of the work in the several sewer precincts, see
report of the city engineer, herewith appended.

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS. 321
REPORT OF THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
Office of Superintendent of Streets.
To the Board of Public Works:
Gentlemen, — As superintendent of streets I herewith
submit the annual report of the work of the highway
department for the year ending December 31, 1912.
Permanent Improvements and Their Maintenance.
The sum of $7,700 was appropriated in 1912 for per-
manent improvements in Concord divided as follows:
South Street from Pleasant to Fayette $2,000, North Main
Street from Pearl to Chapel $2,700, Penacook Road $2,000,
Loudon Road, $500, Pittsfield Road, $500. The macada-
mizing of South Street was the first piece of work to be
done. Tarvia was used in construction and at the end of
the season the road appeared to be in good condition and
to have withstood the motor traffic well. The gutters
were paved, sidewalk bankings graded, crossings repaired
and the road put in good shape for $1,953.86. With the
continuation of work on this street each year and with
proper maintenance South Street will become one of our
most attractive streets and I would recommend that the
section from Fayette to Thorndike be macadamized next
season. At the beginning of the year when the annual
appropriations were made it was expected to continue the
work on North Main Street south from Pearl but the
extensive work done on the sewer made it seem advisable
to leave it until another year. It would have been unwise
to put in macadam until the street had settled properly
and next year it will no doubt be in condition to macadamize
and I would recommend that that piece of road be one of
the first to receive attention. Instead of using the appro-
priation on North Main Street it was transferred to North
State for improving that street through West Concord
village. This road had a fairly good stone chip foundation
21
322 CITY OF CONCORD.
but was exceedingly rough. With such foundation it was
unnecessary to excavate to any great extent and we were
able to improve the road for some distance at a compara-
tively small expense. The macadam should be continued
south to Calvary cemetery to meet the macadam already
in and the road should receive surface treatment early in
the season.
A section of macadam on the Penacook Road near Willow
Hollow had become so badly worn that complete reconstruc-
tion was necessary. Tarvia was used in construction. The
surface of this entire road from Penacook to Concord should
have surface treatment as early in the summer as possible.
Merrimack Street in Penacook which leads to the railroad
station has a section of macadam which has been in a long
time and I would recommend that its reconstruction would
be a matter of economy. Park Street from State to Main
was macadamized about sixteen years ago and it should be
reconstructed also.
Gravel was used again last summer in improving the
Loudon and Pittsfield Roads and the work should be con-
tinued next summer.
While the highway between Penacook and Concord
receives a great amount of automobile traffic the travel on
Pleasant Street to St. Paul's School is fully as great. The
larger part of that road has been in about ten years and
the section from the Eddy estate to the School needs con-
siderable repairing and resurfacing which should be done
next summer. In fact all of the macadam should receive
more or less surface treatment in order to keep it up to the
standard. Last year we received $650 from the state for
resurfacing that portion of the Merrimack Valley boulevard
on which the state had aided in constructing. The same
road should be repaired this year and application has been
made to the state highway department for aid in the work.
Concord has not gone into the matter of highway improve-
ments to any great extent in any one year but have been
doing a little each year. Our annual appropriations for
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS. 323
permanent improvements have been small as compared
with other cities in -the state and by this method we have
gradually increased the mileage of good roads and endeav-
ored to keep them in repair. The mileage is not so great
that it requires large sums to maintain the roads but con-
stant maintenance is necessary. The necessity for main-
tenance is increasing each year as the amount of motor
traffic increases and it seems most unwise to build good
roads unless we intend to keep them in repair. The in-
crease in the motor traffic is making it more evident that
more effective methods of dust laying must be used. There
are a number of good dust layers for macadam roads but
to find a satisfactory one for the unimproved streets is a
problem. Last summer we used some tasscoil which was
quite satisfactory.
Trees.
The amount of work necessary on the trees is increasing
instead of decreasing. We still have the brown-tail moth
and the elm tree beetle and the indications are that we
shall have a considerable amount of work on account of the
gypsy moth. With the additional sprayer purchased last
spring we were able to do effective work against the spread
of the elm tree beetle and we hope that another season will
show that no great amount of damage has been done to
the elms in Concord.
Sprinkling.
The street sprinkling service last summer was very un-
satisfactory, due to the lack of teams to run the sprinklers.
The amount of automobile traffic on all the streets is increas-
ing; for, beside the pleasure riding, we have the delivery
truck, etc., which makes effective dust laying necessary.
I would recommend that oil be used on the streets where it
would be practical.
324 city of concord.
Garbage.
The collection of garbage is becoming quite a proposition
as the amount to be collected and the distance that it must
be hauled increases. Wherever we have dumped garbage
there have arisen so many complaints that we have been
forced farther and farther back until the dumps are some
distance away and for that reason I think the purchase of
an auto truck for the collection of garbage would be an
economy.
General Work of Department.
The usual amount of general work was done by the
department during 1912. Several smaller bridges were re-
paired, one on the Canterbury Road over Hackett's Brook
rebuilt and the Pembroke and Loudon bridges repaired.
The bridge at Richardson Mill needs repairing but I under-
stand that the town of Pembroke is to recommend a new
bridge at their annual town meeting. If a new bridge is
built it will be necessary for Concord to rebuild their
abutment. The Horse Hill bridge is in special need of
painting and, in fact, all the iron bridges in the city need
painting. The usual amount of new catch basins were
built and several reconstructed. About the same number
of new concrete walks were laid and the edgestone around
the new Historical building was reset. A large number of
old concrete walks were repaired and there are still a great
many in need of repairs. Quite a number of gravel side-
walks were built during the year. There is urgent need of
a new shed and storeroom at the city lot as we lack suitable
room to properly house the equipment of the department
and is a matter which should receive your immediate
attention.
The arrangements whereby we were able to locate the
crusher at the old Putney Quarry, so-called, in West Con-
cord has been a great advantage to the department as it is
much easier of access and more convenient in every way.
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS. 325
Our crusher has been in use for a long time and has become
so expensive to repair that I would recommend the purchase
of a new one. Several meetings of the Massachusetts
Highway Association and the Good Roads convention at
Cincinnati, Ohio, which I attended have been a great help
in keeping informed on the best methods of road building
and other work of a highway department.
I would thank the board of public works for their in-
terest in the department and for their courtesies to me.
The financial statement shows the various sub-divisions of
the work of the department.
Respectfully submitted,
ALFRED CLARK,
Superintendent of Streets.

REPORT OF SEWER DEPARTMENT.
Cm Engineer's Office, Cm Hail
Concord, N. 11.. December 31, 1912.
Th« - : . um.ua] to this board, showing the
funds available and the expenditures for construction and
s and maintenance in the city precinct,
the Wesl Concord precinct, the East Concord precinct and
Saint Paul's School precinct, is herewith submitted.
. general statement of the condition of the
sewers in the City precinct.
City Sewer Precinct.
ne much d addition has been made to the mains in
this precinct, viz.: a new main in North Main Street, from
Hall's Court northerly to the junction with Washington
91 wer. This sewer was built of "Segmental Block"
after an investigation of other materials and cos: of same.
The Board of Public Works voted to adopt this block -
promise a saving of $1,000 over concrete and
brick construction.
In the opinion of your engineer this amount v s saved to
the city by the use of this block. The sewer was completed
and put in operation, and. up to date. I see no reason to
gret the adoption of this material.
The work was, n pleted as early as was desired, but
condition of the labor market made it practically impos-
sible to get a sufficient number of laborers to complete the
work as was intended.
The majority of the main sewers in this precinct are
inadequate in size to perform the work required of them,
and their condition together with some measures for relief
should receive immediate attention, as many serious com-

REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR.
To the Board of Aldermen:
In this, my second annual report as city solicitor, I
desire to present for the information of the board the posi-
tion of the city in regard to the various legal matters in
which it has been interested during the year 1912. This
report will describe the progress that has been made with
the various cases brought against the city and will show
their status at the present time.
There were two cases entitled Boston & Maine Railroad
v. Concord, upon the docket of the Merrimack County
Superior Court at the October term, 1912. These were
both petitions praying for the abatement of taxes assessed
by the city upon Contoocook River Park, one for the year
1910 and one for the year 1911. The railroad claimed
that this property was not taxable by the City of Concord
but that it is included in the general railroad tax for the
years mentioned. The first case was reserved for the Su-
preme Court but never transferred and in December of
last year both cases were voluntarily dismissed by the
petitioner without cost to the city. Another case, Jennie
P. Martin v. Concord, a suit to recover damages for injuries
to the plaintiff's real estate on the corner of South State
and Downing Streets alleged to have been caused by de-
fective sewers, I expected to have tried during the year but
owing to the inability of counsel to attend to the same this
case is still on the docket. Carolyn F. Stickney v. Concord,
is another case in the same situation. This was an appeal
from an award of $300 damages made to the plaintiff by
the board of aldermen on account of the laying out and
construction of a sewer from North Main Street through
the plaintiff's land to the Merrimack River. I have strong
hopes that this case may be settled eventually for the
amount awarded by the board of aldermen.
REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR. 379
Concord Street Railway v. Concord, an appeal taken by
the Concord Street Railway from an award of damages
to it by the board of aldermen upon the laying out of a
highway in Penacook entered at the April term, 1900, has
been dismissed for lack of prosecution.
Grace 0. Button v. Concord, a suit for damages sustained
by reason of a defective culvert in a highway, which was
entered at the April term, 1911, was tried by jury at the
April term, 1912. The plaintiff asked $500 damages and
the verdict of the jury awarded her $187.
Another case brought against the city for personal
injuries sustained by reason of a defective highway is that
of Gilbert S. Hubbard v. Concord which was entered at the
October term, 1911, and in which the plaintiff claims he is
damaged to the amount of $5,000. I had strong hopes of
trying this case at the April term, 1912, but it was not
reached. It will be in order for trial at the April term, 1913.
The case of Concord v. Patriot Publishing Company for
taxes for the years 1909 and 1910, entered at the October
term, 1910, has been dismissed from the docket. This
case was against the old Patriot Company and not the pres-
ent owners, but was settled by the present company,
the New Hampshire Patriot Company, for the old com-
pany. Another case in which the city is concerned is that
of Eben Hemphill v. Concord, a case for personal injuries
brought in Hillsborough County in which the plaintiff
asks $6,000 damages, having sustained a broken leg while
working for the city upon the highway. This case will be
in order for trial by jury at the May term of the Superior
Court for Hillsborough County in Manchester.
Some interest was created in the city's prosecution
of the case State v. N orris A. Dunklee. The defendant was
operating taxi-cabs within the city limits without having
obtained a license so to do from this board. He claimed
that the city ordinance requiring all persons who operated
hackney coaches, cabs, etc., within the city limits for the
purpose of carrying passengers for hire did not apply to
him as he had obtained licenses for his taxi-cabs from the
380 CITY OF CONCORD.
secretary of state in accordance with the state statutes.
The defence was set up also that our city ordinance was
inconsistent with the motor vehicle law passed by the Legis-
lature and was, therefore, superseded by it. This law
provides that no city ordinance which restricts the use of
automobiles upon any of the highways of the state should
be valid. My contention before the supreme court was
that our ordinance merely regulated the conduct of
certain business with automobiles and that the city should
have the right to regulate the business of carrying passengers
for hire under its police powers. The result was that the
Supreme Court upheld the state's view of the case and re-
quired the defendant to submit himself to the jurisdiction
of this board in the conduct of his business.
I am glad to report that the case of Henry M. Baker,
Exr. v. Concord, a petition for the abatement of taxes
assessed for the year 1911 upon the homestead of Mrs.
Mary Baker G. Eddy, has been voluntarily dismissed,
the petitioner having elected to pay the taxes assessed
rather than prosecute the case.
Two other cases in which the city is interested and
which complete the list are Concord v. Frank W. Sanborn,
and George L. Theobald v. Concord, the first a suit brought
by the city for the collection of taxes, and the second a
suit brought against the city for damages arising out of a
dispute over the legality of the teaming ordinance. Neither
case has as yet reached the trial stage.
During the year in addition to the handling of the above
named cases I have performed the routine work of the office
such as drafting ordinances, resolutions, contracts, deeds,
etc., advising committees of the board and city officials.
I have also prosecuted the usual number of criminal cases
for the police department before the police court.
In closing this report for the year 1912 I desire to express
my appreciation for the month's leave of absence granted
me on account of ill health.
Respectfully submitted,

January 11, 1913. City Solicitor.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON THE JOHN
KIMBALL PLAYGROUND.
To the Board of Aldermen:
The committee respectfully submits the following report
for the year 1912. The sum of four hundred dollars ($400)
was appropriated, which was expended. The work done
on the Kimball Playground this year was exceedingly in-
teresting from several points of view. The instructor was
a man capable of instilling the principles of morality as
well as of managing the games and sports. He was able
to reduce profanity on the grounds to a very small amount.
All of this has tended to establish the playground as a factor
in education.
The instructor commented favorably on the use of the
grounds by little children in the morning, by the older girls
on spare Saturday afternoons, and by the boys in the
early evenings. Contests were enjoyed by the boys and
girls, and interest was excited by simple prizes. Partic-
ularly good work was done in jumping and vaulting.
While no special means were taken to advertise the work
accomplished, the committee feel sure that it has not been
equalled in any previous year. A complete equipment,
level grounds, and accommodations for very hot weather
would add greatly to its value.

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS.
To the Board of Aldermen:
The amount placed at our disposal for the year 1912 for
Blossom Hill Cemetery was $5,948.71 and we have expended
$6,110.57; and for the Old North we received $594.12 and
expended $593.51 for a detailed account of which we refer
you to the report of the City treasurer. The burials for
the past year have been: in Blossom Hill Cemetery, one
hundred and ninety-six (196), and in the Old North fourteen
(14). The chapel has been used six (6) times. In addition
to the usual appropriation of $100 for the Old North Ceme-
tery we would recommend an additional one of $200, for
a new fence on the north side and to enclose the Quaker
burial lot recently purchased. The usual appropriation of
$1,000 for Blossom Hill we think will be sufficient for the
coming year.

ASSESSORS' REPORT.
To the Taxpayers of the City of Concord:
The board of assessors submits to your consideration the
following facts and figures showing the valuation of the
city and of each of its school districts and special precincts,
with the amount of taxes raised in each and returned to the
tax collector for collection.
The work of making up the inventory for the year was
commenced in March and the tax warrants given the tax
collector November 18.
All real estate in the city was inspected by the full board,
and valuations equalized as much as possible, in the time
at our command, some property being placed at three, four,
and even five times its former valuation.
In the work of making up the lists for taxation we found
the maps of the various wards of great assistance.
The strict enforcement of the return of inventories dis-
closed a large amount of bonds, money at interest, and other
taxable property.

REPORT OF THE PUBLIC BATH
For the Summer Ending 1912.
Mr. C. J. French,
Mayor, City of Concord, N. H.
Dear Sir: — I hereby submit to you a report of the
public bath during the months of June, July, August, and
the first week of September.
The public bath was officially opened June 14 and closed
on Labor Day, September 2.
The conditions at the bath house were ideal for the past
summer. We had extremely good weather all the season.
The attendance was large and composed of mainly from
boys of city.
The boys conducted themselves in a creditable manner
and caused very little trouble.

July 6,642
August 2,524
September 39
Total attendance 10,862
Number of boys saved from probable drowning, 5.
Cause in each case due to exhaustion.
Number of boys who have learned to swim during the
past summer. 33.

Recommendations.
The bath house, as it now stands should be moved nearer
the river. (It is at present a distance of 150 yards from
the river.)
The money saved from this year's appropriation should
be spent for a new boat. (The one at present is in bad
condition.)
That a suitable bath house be built for the use of women
bathers. (There is a great deal of interest among women
for a suitable place for the use of women bathers.)
On Labor Day I got up a series of races for the boys of
the city, as a fitting climax of the summer's work. Each
store that I called on gave a suitable present for the various
events; in all I had twenty-six presents. The races were
entirely successful and ended the public bath season in a
very fitting manner.
Attendance — June 14 to September 2.

OLD NORTH CEMETERY RECEIPTS.
Amounts received from sundry collections and income of permanent funds are added
to the annual appropriation. The amounts expended on trust funds are paid on a
