EEPORT  OF   THE    SELECTMEN. 


Hyde  Park,  February  5,  1884. 

Fellow  Citizens  : — 

As  is  the  custom,  we  give  you  a  full  report  of  receipts 
aud  expenditures  for  the  past  year,  reports  of  the  different 
officers  of  the  town,  list  of  tax-payers,  and  such  other  mat- 
ters as  are  of  general  interest. 

The  Town  Hall  was  burned  March  8th,  1883.  The  insur- 
ance on  the  building  and  contents  was  satisfactorily  settled, 
by  the  payment  of  the  policies  in  full.  New  rooms  were 
leased  by  the  Selectmen  in  Everett  block,  for  one  year,  with 
the  privilege  of  five  years,  at  three  hundred  dollars  per  year. 
They  have  been  nicely  fitted  up,  at  small  expense,  and 
accommodate  officers  and  the  public  in  a  satisfactory 
manner. 

HIGHWAYS. 

A  good  deal  of  work  has  been  accomplished  the  past  year. 
The  Selectmen,  at  the  beginning,  rode  over  every  street  in 
town,  making  a  careful  survey  aud  estimate  of  what  it  would 
cost,  and  asked  the  town  for  the  needed  appropriation,  which 
was  granted.  As  early  as  possible  the  work  was  begun. 
The  gutters  were  cleared  out,  stones  removed,  sidewalks 


6 

repaired,    low  places  filled  up,   and    a   general  putting  in 
order  of  nearly  every   street   in   town.      Warren   avenue 
was  put  to  grade,  and  a  culvert  built  across  Beacon  street,  and 
one  across  Highland  street  at  junction  of  Fairmount  avenue. 
Fairmount  avenue  was  gravelled  from  the  bridge  to  Pond 
street,  and  one  sidewalk  from  the  bridge  to  the  top  of  Fair- 
mount  hill,  from  gravel  taken  from  Warren  avenue.     Pond 
street,  near  the  school-house,  where  there  has  always  been 
a  low,  wet   place  for  the   children   to  pass   through,  was 
filled,  and  a  drain  put  in  from  lot  corner  of  Fairmount  ave- 
nne  and  Pond  street  to  Williams  avenue.     On  Dana  avenue, 
where  the  water  has  flowed  in  the  gutter  in  years  before 
from  the  upper  swamp,  causing,  in  winter,  much  trouble 
from  ice,  and  quite  large  expense  to  keep  it  passably  clear, 
has  been  obviated  by  digging  wells  at  the  upper  and  lower 
swamps,  and  connecting  therewith  an  eight-inch  drain-pipe. 
This  has  worked  entirely  satisfactorily,  taking  care  of  all  the 
water,  contrary  to  the  prophecy  of  some  of  the  oldest  inhab- 
itants.    For  this  work,  half  was  paid  b}'  the  Eeal  Estate  and 
Building  Company  and  half  by  the  town.     At  the  junction 
of  River  street  and  Central  Park  avenue,  the  streets  were 
filled  about  three  feet,  to  improve  the  grade,  and  a  culvert 
was  built  under  Central  Park  avenue,  near  the  engine  house, 
to  drain  the  water  from  River  street  to  Stony  brook.     A 
portion  of  West  street  was  filled  and  widened.     Sidewalks 
were  built  on  River  street,  and  the  street  repaired  from  the 
paper  mill  to  railroad  property.     Roxanna  street  has  been 
put  in  complete  and  thorough  repair,  by  trenching,  relaying 
and  paving  the  gutters,  making  over  the   sidewalks,  and 
giving  the  roadway  a  heavy  coat  of  gravel,  at  an  expense  of 
five   hundred  dollars,   one-half  of  which  was  paid  by  Mr. 
C.  F.  Allen.     A  concrete  crossing  was  built  on  Fairmount 
avenue,  near  Everett   square,  and  concrete  gutters  across 
Central  avenue,  near  the  Methodist  church,  and  at  the  head 
of  Water  street.     The  highways  are,  generally,  in  a  fair 
condition. 


Childs  and  Cleveland  streets,  as  laid  out  by  our  predeces- 
sors, and  accepted  by  the  town  last  year,  with  an  appropria- 
tion of  twenty-three  hundred  dollars  to  do  the  work,  was  a 
legacy  to  us,  the  requirements  of  which  we  have  endeavored 
to  carry  out ;  but  the  work  is  not  fully  completed,  and  will 
need  an  additional  appropriation.  The  building  of  such 
culverts,  the  reduction  of  a  ledge  such  as  we  found  extend- 
ing the  entire  width  of  Childs  street  and  nearly  two  hundred 
feet  in  length,  together  with  excavations  in  accordance  with 
plans  and  specifications  on  file,  we  found  a  work  of  no  small 
magnitude.  But  you  will  bear  in  mind  that  this  work  is 
being  executed  under  the  betterment  laws,  and  a  large  por- 
tion of  the  expense  incurred  will  be  assessed  on  the  abut- 
tors,  and  revert  to  the  town  after  the  work  is  finished. 

The  extension  of  Williams  avenue  has  been  completed 
within  the  appropriation,  and  accepted  by  the  County 
Commissioners. 

The  bridge  over  the  Boston  and  Providence  railroad,  on 
River  street,  has  been  built  by  the  railroad  company,  and  is 
a  great  improvement  over  the  old  structure.  A  contract  was 
made  with  the  railroad  company  to  erect  a  temporary  bridge 
for  public  travel  while  the  new  bridge  was  being  construct- 
ed, for  the  sum  of  five  hundred  dollars,  which  the  town  will 
be  called  upon  to  provide  for  at  its  next  appropriation 
meeting. 

RAILROAD     CROSSING. 

A  petition  was  presented  by  the  Selectmen  to  the  Railroad 
Commissioners,  asking  for  a  flagman  at  the  Bridge  street 
crossing  over  the  New  York  and  New  England  railroad,  at 
the  expense  of  said  road.  A  hearing  was  held,  which 
resulted  in  an  order  from  said  Commissioners  granting  the 
petition  as  prayed  for. 


DRAINAGE. 

For  several  years  citizens  residing  on  Green  street  have 
been  seriously  inconvenienced,  by  reason  of  an  improper  or 
inadequate  system  of  drainage  in  that  particular  locality. 
Complaints  have  also  been  filed  with  this  Board,  by  parties 
connected  with  the  manufacturing  interests  of  our  town,  and 
located  directly  in  the  rear  of  this  street,  who  are  suffering 
from  the  same  cause.  A  plan  has  been  suggested  for  their 
partial  relief,  that  we  think  worthy  of  your  careful  consid- 
eration ;  which  is  to  so  change  the  grade  of  Central  Park 
avenue,  by  a  continuation  of  that,  as  now  established  at  its 
junction  with  River  street,  to  a  point  opposite  the  foot  of 
Pine  street,  thereby  providing  for  nearly  all  the  surface 
drainage  from  Mt.  Neponset,  which  now  finds  its  way  down 
on  to  the  low  lands  in  front  of  the  Boston  and  Providence 
railroad  depot,  diverting  this  surface  water  from  its  original 
course  along  this  avenue  direct  to  Mother  brook,  or  to  a 
culvert  now  crossing  said  avenue  at  a  point  just  below  Wal- 
nut street,  thence  constructing  an  open  drain,  on  a  line  with 
said  Walnut  street,  over  land  of  Eobert  Bleakie,  to  Mother 
brook ;  when,  if  these  aggrieved  parties  will  connect,  by  a 
system  of  drains  along  the  rear  of  their  estates  at  the  point 
of  the  above  named  culvert,  it  will,  we  think,  obviate  their 
whole  difficulty. 


GORDON    AVENUE    AND    RIVER    STREET. 

The  action  of  the  County  Commissioners,  allowing  the 
Boston  and  Providence  Railroad  Company  to  raise  the  grade 
nearly  four  feet  on  the  approach  to  their  new  bridge,  has 
deprived  the  town  of  all  drainage  at  thrs  point;  and,  unless 
said  County  Commissioners,  or  the  railroad  company,  can 
be  looked  to  for  relief,  early  action  on  the  part  of  the  town 
will  be  necessary  to  remedy  this  difficulty. 


STREET    LIGHTS. 


Contracts  were  made  with  the  Declham  and  Hyde  Park 
Oas  Company,  and  the  Globe  Gas-light  Company,  on  the 
same  basis  as  last  year.  The  service  has,  generally,  been 
good,  although  some  complaints  have  been  made.  In  all 
such  cases  the  companies  have  been  notified,  and  have  been 
prompt  to  remedy  the  trouble. 


NO    LICENSE. 

No  License  was  the  majority  ballot  carried  to  the  polls  at 
the  March  town  meeting,  and  the  Selectmen  were  elected  on 
that  basis ;  and  everything  has  been  done,  as  far  as  possible, 
to  carry  out  the  wishes  of  the  voters.  We  feel  that  to-day 
we  are  comparatively  free  from  the  liquor  nuisance.  No 
open  bars  can  be  found,  beer  wagons  are  not  as  common  on 
our  streets  as  formerly,  and  we  think  we  can  be  reckoned 
among  the  foremost  temperance  towns  of  the  State. 

POLICE. 

During  the  past  year  your  attention  has  so  frequently  been 
called  to  the  operation  of  this  department,  by  reason  of  the 
energy,  zeal  and  fidelity  so  plainly  manifest  on  the  part  of 
those  officers  most  actively  engaged  and  connected  therewith, 
that  it  seems  almost  needless  for  this  Board  to  refer  to  it  in 
connection  with  this  report.  Therefore  we  say,  briefly,  that 
the  duties  devolving  upon  the  principal  officers  of  this 
department  have  been  arduous,  perplexing,  and  somewhat 
dangerons  withal,  as  the  duties  of  faithful  officers  necessarily 
must  be ;  and  we  feel  that  the  fiicts  will  fully  sustain  us  in 
the  statement  that  these  officers  have  proved  themselves 
equal  to  every  emergency  ;  and  we  most,  heartily  congratu- 
late them  and  the  town  upon  the  results  obtained  by  the 
strenuons  efforts  on  their  part  to  detect  crime,  enforce  the 
laws,  and  maintain  orood  order. 


10 

The  officers  specially  commended  to  your  uotice,  are 
Chief  of  Police  Charles  E.  Jenney,  Officer  Charles  Jacobs, 
and  Nio-ht  Watchman  Patrick  J.  Donlan.

ENGINEERS'    REPORT. 


Engineers'  Eoom,  H.  P.  F.  Dep't, 
Hyde  Park,  Jan.  31,  1884. 

To  the  Honorable  Board  of  Selectmen: — 

Gentlemen:  —  In  laying  before  you  this,  our  annual, 
report  for  the  year  ending  January  31,  1884,  we  do  so 
with  much  gratification.  The  membership  of  the  department 
is  excellent,  and  the  apparatus  in  good  condition,  with  one 
exception.  The  Hook  and  Ladder  carriage  is  very  light, 
and  not  strong  enough  to  carry  the  equipment  belonging  to 
it.  Some  accident  has  happened  to  it  at  almost  every  fire, 
and  more  money  has  been  paid  to  keep  it  in  repair  than 
would  buy  a  much  stronger  carriage.  We  would  recom- 
mend the  next  Board  of  Engineers  to  exchange  it  for  one 
heavier  and  more  durable,  by  paying  a  sum  of  money  for 
the  exchange. 

The  department  has  been  called  upon  an  unusual  number 
of  times  the  past  year,  and  has  proved  very  efficient  in  every 
case.  In  no  instance  has  the  fire  extended  beyond  the 
building  where  it  originated.  In  this  connection  we  would 
say  that  great  praise  is  due  to  the  Chemical  Engine.  It  has 
proven  to  be  a  good  investment  for  the  town.  It  has, 
undoubtedly,  saved  many  times  its  cost.  It  has  been  espe- 
cially useful  in  holding  fires  in  check  until  streams  of  water 
could  be  had  from  the  steamers. 

We  have  in  the  department  about  three  thousand  feet  ot 
cotton  hose  in  good  condition,  and  fl;fteen  hundred  feet  of 
leather  hose  almost  worthless.  The  town  will  have  to 
appropriate  a  sum  of  money  for  the  purchase  of  hose  the 
coming  year. 


14 

The  apparatus  of  the  department  consists  of  two  steamers, 
two  hose  carriages,  one  hook  and  ladder  carriage,  one  chem- 
ical engine,  one  fuel  wagon,  and  two  sets  swinging  harness ; 
all  in  good  repair,  except  hook  and  ladder  carriage,  as  above 
mentioned. 

We  take  this  opportunity  to  thank  each  and  every  mem- 
ber of  the  department  for  their  gentlemanly  deportment, 
and  are  confident  they  will  always  be  found  ready  when 
duty  calls. 

You  will  find,  with  this  report,  a  list  of  alarms  and  fires  ; 
also,  the  officers  and  number  of  men  belonging  to  each 
company. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

W.  W.  HILTON, 

Chief  Engineer. 

C.  L.  FARNSWORTH, 

F.  A.  SWEET, 

Assistant  Engineers.

REPOKT  OF  OVERSEERS  OF  THE  POOR, 


In  a  survey  of  our  work  and  records  of  the  past  year,  we 
note  the  following  as  of  general  interest : — 

We  find  that  the  number  of  persons  requiring  full  support 
is  increasing  year  by  year.  Hyde  Park,  however,  is  very 
favorably  situated  in  this  respect  for  a  town  of  its  size. 
Under  the  statutes  persons  acquire  a  pauper  settlement, 
mainly,  by  ownership  of  property,  payment  of  taxes,'  or 
simply  by  residence,  and  our  territory,  thirty  years  ago,  was 
so  sparsely  settled,  and  for  the  first  few  years  of  our  village 
existence  the  population  was  so  constantly  changing  that  very 
few  settlements  were  acquired  until  within  perhaps  twenty 
years.  We  have,  in  fact,  on  our  list  but  three  persons  wiiose 
settlements  antedate  1860,  but  with  our  larger,  steadier  pop- 
ulation of  late  years,  and  also  through  changes  in  the  laws 
which  make  the  acquirement  of  a  settlement  a  simpler  matter 
than  in  the  past,  we  find-  that  a  much  larger  proportion  of 
applicants  have  settlements  on  this  town  than  has  heretofore 
been  the  case. 

As  Hyde  Park  settlements  thus  become  more  and  more 
numerous,  the  aid  to  those  requiring  full  support  becomes 
each  year  a  heavier  item,  and  the  question  of  how  to  most 
economically  manage  these  cases  is  fast  becoming  one  of  im- 
portance to  the  town.  We  are  now  boarding  such  persons, 
adults  and  children,  in  various  places  and  institutions,  and 
this  plan  has  answered  fairly  so  far.  With  such  an  increase 
in  their  number,  as  may  reasonably  be  expected  within  a 
very  few  years  it  will  probably  be  necessary,  however,  for 


40 

the  town  to  arrange  in  some  way  for  their  maiutenauce  here 
at  home.  Probably  the  most  feasible  plan  will  be  to  utilize 
the  Happy  Valley  estate,  and  either  by  the  alteration  of  ex- 
istius^  buildings,  or  the  erection  of  a  new  one,  start  a  poor- 
house  on  a  small  and  inexpensive  scale.  Such  an  establish- 
ment would  be  of  great  use  to  the  overseers,  even  now,  and 
save  a  deal  of  time  and  labor  by  furnishing  rooms,  with 
board  and  care  at  a  minimum  cost  for  the  sudden  and  serious 
cases  of  sickness  among  the  friendless  poor,  which  each  year 
regularly  brings  us. 

Our  receipts  this  year  from  the  Commonwealth,  and  from 
other  towns  have  been  quite  large.  The  pa^yments  from  the 
State  include  $564,  to  close  the  small-pox  claims  of  1881, 
and  the  decision  of  Teed's  settlement,  gave  us  a  claim  on 
that  account  against  the  town  of  Tewksbury  of  $251.80, 
which  has  been  settled  in  full  by  that  town.  The  State 
authorities  have  been  of  srreat  service  in  aidins:  us  to  fix  set- 
tlements  in  several  disputed  cases.  Dr.  Wheelwright,  after 
a  quarter  of  a  century  of  service  has  just  retired  from  the 
position  of  Superintendent  of  State  out-door  poor.  We  are 
pleased  to  acknowledge  the  aid  and  attention  we  have  had 
from  his  office,  and  trust  that  we  may  continue  as  pleasant 
relations  with  as  competent  a  successor.  We  have  now  due 
us  from  sundry  sources  for  aid  rendered,  about  $240.

REPORT 


OP  THE 


SEALEE  OF  WEIGHTS  AEJ)    MEASUEES, 

FOR  THE  FINANCIAL   YEAR   ENDING  JAN.  31ST,  1884. 


The  Sealer  of  Weights  and  Measures  has  attended  to  the 
duties  of  his  ofHce  as  prescribed  by  law,  and  has  received  in 
fees  for  the  same,  $31.65. 

D.    D.    BURNS,    Sealer. 


REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  HEALTH, 


The  Board  of  Health  herewith  present  their  report  for  the 
year  ending  January  31st,  1884.  The  duties  devolving  upon 
the  Board  the  past  year  have  been  more  than  in  any  previous 
year.  A  large  number  of  complaints  regarding  the  sanitary 
condition  have  come  from  all  parts  of  the  town.  In  a  large 
proportion  of  these  cases,  the  remedy  sought  was  the  clean- 
ing out,  and  disinfecting  of  vaults  and  cesspools.  Hog  pens 
in  the  thickly  settled  parts  of  the  town  have  given  us  con- 
siderable trouble,  and  it  is  the  opinion  of  the  Board,  that  no 
one  should  be  allowed  to  keep  swine  in  thickly  settled 
streets. 

All  complaints  have  received  our  immediate  attention 
and  in  nearly  every  case  our  requests  upon  the  owners 
of  these  nuisances  have  resulted  in  their  abatement  without 
cost  to  the  town.  A  petition  was  received  from  the  resi- 
dents on  Arlington  street,  praying  that  this  Board  abate  the 
stagnant  pools  of  water  near  their  property.  After  due  coh- 
sideration  of  the  alleged  nuisance,  the  Board  decided  to  re- 
open the  ditch  through  land  of  the  Real  Estate  &  Building 
Company,  land  of  the  Greenwood  estate,  and  land  of  Sally 
R.  Sumner.  The  Real  Estate  &  Building  Company  contrib- 
uted $100  ;  the  Greenwood  heirs  and  Sally  R.  Sumner,  each 
did  their  own  work.  The  town  built  three  culverts  and 
superintended  the  whole.  We  do  not  anticipate  any  further 
trouble  from  that  section  of  the  town. 

The  old  reservoir  on  West  street  has  been  filled,  which 
has  given  great  satisfaction  to  those  living  near  there.  The 
work  to  be  done  by  the  Board  of  Health  for  the  next  few 
years  will  be  quite  large. 


46 

No  one  but  members  of  the  Board  can  form  any  idea  of 
what  has  ah-eady  been  done.  There  are  a  number  of  places 
in  town  that  will  need  watchinof  for  the  next  few  years. 

It  is  the  duty  of  every  one  that  knows  of  places  that  are 
not  in  proper  condition  to  report  the  same  to  the  Board. 

During  the  past  year  our  physicians  in  most  every  instance 
have  reported  to  the  Board  cases  of  typhoid  fever,  scarlet 
fever  and  diphtheria,  so  that  we  have  been  able,  with  their 
help,  as  far  as  possible  to  prevent  the  spread  of  contagious 
diseases. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

JOHN  TERRY, 
F.  L.  GERALD, 
JOEL  F.  GOODWIN, 

Board  of  Health.

The  Town  Clerk  requests  information  of  an}-  omission  or  error

HENRY  B.  TERRY,  Toim  Clerk, 


THE  TY/ELFTH  ANNUAL    REPORT 


OF    THE 


HYDE    PARK    LIBRARY    BOARD. 


When  making  up  their  last  annual  report,  the  Trustees 
noted  the  fact  that  the  lease  of  the  rooms  then  occupied 
would  expire  during  the  year,  and  doubt  was  expressed  as 
to  the  course  that  would  be  open  to  them  in  providing  for 
the  natural  growth  of  the  Library,  and  the  increasing  num- 
ber of  citizens  making  use  of  it,  the  rooms  then  occupied 
being  already  too  small,  with  no  possibility  of  extension. 

The  doubt  was  solved  by  the  erection  of  a  new  building 
in  an  equally  central  locality,  by  Mr.  Jas.  S.  Conant  of  Bos- 
ton, and  a  lease  has  been  taken  of  half  the  second  story  of 
the  new  block,  for  a  period  of  five  years,  with  the  privilege 
of  renewal  for  an  additional  five  years  at  the  same  rate. 

Pijeparations  for  removal  were  made  imn  ediately  on  the 
expiration  of  the  lease  of  the  old  quarters,  but  meanwhile 
rumors  had  gained  currency  afiecting  the  stability  of  the  new 
building,  and  the  Trustees,  desiring  to  avoid  any  risk  to  the 
Library,  discontinued  further  preparations  until  the  opinion 
and  suggestions  of  an  eminent  Boston  architect  had  been  ob- 
tained, and  his  recommendations  adopted  by  the  owner, 
when  operations  were  renewed,  and  every  effort  was  made 


66 

to  put  the  Library  in  condition  for  use  with  the  least  pos- 
sible delay.  Weeks  of  time,  however,  were  unavoidably 
lost  for  the  above  reasons. 

The  new  rooms  are  convenient,  light,  high,  easily  acces- 
sible, and  so  much  larger  than  those  lately  occupied,  that 
provision  can  now  be  made  for  the  probable  growth  of  the 
Library  and  increase  of  readers  for  several  years  to  come, 
while  the  current  expenses  will  not  be  largely  increased. 

The  Library  has  been  carefully  and  intelligent!}^  managed 
the  past  year  by  the  librarian,  Mrs.  H.  A.  B.  Thompson, 
assisted  by  Miss  Mary  Hawley  for  a  small  portion  of  the 
time,  but  with  the  larger  use  now  being  made  of  the  Library 
it  is  evidently  but  the  question  of  a  little  time  when  the  ser- 
vices of  a  permanent  assistant  will  be  required  to  keep  the 
Library  up  to  the  proper  state  of  efficiency,  if  indeed  that 
time  has  not  already  arrived. 

The  Library  now  embraces  about  7,500  volumes,  all  of 
which  are  accessible  without  cost  to  every  citizen. 

All  the  principal  magazines  of  the  country,  with  other 
periodicals,  including  weekly,  semi-weekly  and  daily  news- 
papers, are  to  be  found  in  the  reading-room. 

Copies  of  the  full  and  well-arranged  catalogue  can  still  be 
obtained  free  by  any  head  of  a  family  who  does  not  possess 
one ;  and  a  supplement,  covering  all  accessions  to  the 
Library  since  the  publication  of  the  catalogue  to  the  present 
time,  is  in  the  hands  of  the  printer,  and  will  be  ready  for 
free  distribution  at  about  the  time  this  Report  will  be  pub- 
lished. 

The  number  of  books  given  out  from  February  1,  1883, 
to  February  1,  1884,  was  21,838. 

The  number  of  new  cards  issued  was  347. 

The  amount  received  in  fines  was  $43.80. 

About  240  volumes  have  been  added  to  the  Library  by 
purchase. 


67 

33  volumes  and    13    pamphlets  Public  Documents  have 
been  received. 

2  pamphlets  from  Mr.  H.  M,  Cable. 

1  pamphlet  from  Mr.  Sylvanus  Cobb,  Jr. 

1  pamphlet  each  from  Wakefield,   Dedham,   Quincy  and 
Providence. 

5  books  and  2  pamphlets  from  Mr.  W.  D.  Bidwell. 
For  the  Trustees,

EEPORT   OF  SCHOOL  COMMITTEE. 


For  the  School  Year  ending  December  31,  1883. 


To  THE  Citizens  of  Hyde  Park  : — 

The  Committees  appointed  to  superintend  the  different 
schools  respectfully  submit  the  following  Reports  : — 

HIGH   SCHOOL. 

Principal, — John  F.  Elliot. 

Assistants, — Miss  Mar}'  M.  Coleman,  Miss  Sarah  L.  Miner, 
Miss  Estelle  M.  Hatch  (to  June  30,  1883),  MissC.  L.  Hill  (from 
September  1,  1883). 

The  High  school  has  had  an  unusually  prosperous  year, 
with  increase  both  in  numbers  and  in  public  appreciatiou. 

At  the  end  of  the  Summer  term  Miss  E.  M.  Hatch  re- 
signed her  position  to  devote  herself  to  special  srudies.  The 
resignation  was  accepted  by  the  Committee  with  regret,  and 
the  vacancy  filled,  after  careful  inquiry  and  examination,  by 
the  election  of  Miss  C.  L.  Hill,  then  teaching  successfully  in 
the  High  school  at  Fitchburg,  Mass.  The  selection  has 
proved  an  excellent  one. 

The  other  teachers  of  the  school  remain  as  last  year,  and 
it  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  Town  may  long  retain  their  valu- 
able services. 

As  was  to  be  expected,  the  new  course  of  study  shows 
some  slight  defects,  but,  on  the  whole,  works  admirably, 
and  the  changes  required  will  hardly  excite  attention. 


104 

The  Town  will  be  asked,  at  the  meetmg  in  March,  to  ap- 
propriate money  to  repair  the  High  school  building,  which 
was  never  well  built,  and  is  fast  becoming  dilapidated.  Ad- 
ditional room  is  already  needed.  Another  year  will  increase 
considerably  the  number  of  pupils.  It  is  not  too  much  to 
expect  one  hundred  and  fifty  pupils  in  the  High  school  of 
Hyde  Park  within  two  years.  The  demand  of  the  times  is 
increased  facilities  for  eflfective  training  in  natural  science. 
Our  school  is  without  microscope,  without  telescope,  with- 
out laboratory  or  lecture-room  —  almost  without  apparatus 
of  any  kind.  Our  teachers  are  good  workmen  ;  let  us  fur- 
nish them  with,  good  tools,  and  a  convenient,  well-appointed 
workshop. 

We  congratulate  the  public  upon  the  high  position  already 
occupied  by  the  alumni  of  this  school  in  colleges  and  other 
institutions  of  learning,  and  in  various  industrial  pursuits, 
and  are  anxious  that  those  who  follow  shall  be  still  better 
equipped  to  grapple  successfully  with  the  competitions  and 
perplexities  of  literary  or  business  life.

EVERETT   SCHOOL. 

Miss  Mary  E.  Rogers,  Teacher. 

The  same  teacher  whose  services  have  proved  so  accept- 
able in  the  past,  lias  continued  her  watchful  and  loving  care 
over  the  little  men  and  women  of  the  Everett  school.  The 
school  compares  favorably  with  other  Primary  schools  of  the 
Town,  except  in  regard  to  the  accommodations  provided. 
The  Committee  again  calls  attention  to  the  contracted  char- 
acter of  the  building  and  incidental  objections  from  a  sani- 
tary point  of  view.

This  schocjl  has  been  happily  free  from  serious  draw- 
backs of  any  kind.  The  health  of  the  pupils  has  been  good, 
and  the  district,  as  a  whole,  free  from  some  of  the  visitations 
of  contagious  diseases.  Our  corps  of  teachers  has  been 
unbroken,  with  one  exception,  and  the  result  of  constant 
good  work  on  the  part  of  both  teachers  and  scholars  is  easily 
apparent  on  a  visit  to  the  school. 

Since  the  iirst  of  Januar}"  the  experiment  of  abolishing 
the  usual  forenoon  recess  of  twenty  minutes,  in  all  l:)ut  the 
lowest  classes,  and  shortening  the  forenoon  session  to  the 
same  extent  by  dismissing  the  school  at  11.40  a.  m.,  instead 
of  12  M.,  has  been  tried  and  found  an  agreeable  and  profit- 
able change  to  both  teachers  and  scholars,  and  satisfactory 
to  parents  as  well,  so  far  as  they  have  been  consulted.  This 
practice  is  strongly  commended  in  other  towns  where  it  is  in 
full  operation,  and  will  no  doubt  prove  tor  this  school,  if 
finally  adopted,  a  positive  improvement.

GREE^^WOOD   SCHOOL. 

iMaslor, — Dauiol  G.  Thompson, 

Teachers, — Sarah  A.  Bailey,  Agnes  L.  Adams,  Alice  E.  Gage, 
Ellen  M.  Farnsworth,  Sarah  K.  Reniick,  Maud  G.  Leadbeater. 

At  the  opening  of  the  school  in  September,  the  rooms  were 
well  filled,  and  that  containing  the  Seventh  and  Eighth  classes 
was  so  crowded  as  to  render  it  impossible  to  continue  it 
longer  under  one  teacher.  A  new  room  was  accordingly 
opened,  and  the  Seventh  class  placed  in  it,  under  Miss 
Folsom,  whose  resignation  at  the  close  of  the  Fall  term  we 
are  sorry  to  be  compelled  to  mention. 

Her  excellent  character  as  a  teacher  is  attested  by  her 
long  service  iu  this  and  the  Fairmount  school,  during  which 
she  was  promoted  through  all  the  grades,  from  almost  the 
lowest  to  the  one  she  last  held. 

The  present  organization  of  the  school  is  as  follows  :  The 
Fifth  ftiid  Sixth  classes  in  charge  of  Mr.  Thompson ;  the 
Seventh,  Miss  Bailey  ;  the  Eighth,  Miss  Adams  ;  the  Ninth, 
Miss  Gage;  the  Tenth,  Miss  Farnsworth;  the  Eleventh, 
Miss  Eemick ;  the  Twelfth,  Miss  Leadbeater.  The  daily 
work  of  all  is  marked  by  earnestness,  faithfulness  and 
patience. 

It  is  gratifying  to  observe  the  apparent  good  feeling  ex- 
isting between  the  patrons  of  the  school  and  the  pupils  and 
teachers. 

Sickness  and  other  causes  have  afiected  the  attendance  in 
some  of  the  lower  classes  unfavorably,  but  it  is  hoped  that 
this  evil  will  not  continue. 

The  sanitary  condition  of  the  school  premises  has  received 
especial  attention,  and  in  the  opinion  of  experts  nothing  ob- 
jectionable now  exists  there.  A  cistern  has  been  built,  to 
provide  a  supply  of  wholesome  water ;  the  wails  of  the 
rooms  have  been  put  in  good  condition  ;  new  furniture  has 
been  procured,  and  necessary  repairs  made  in  and  about  the 
buildino;.

A  want  which  is  much  felt  in  this,  as  in  all  our  schools,  is 
suitable  books  of  reference  and  a  few  standard  works  adapted 
to  a  school  of  this  grade.  A  well  chosen  library  should  form 
part  of  the  equipment  of  every  school.

FAIRMOUNT   SCHOOL, 

Mr.  Henry  F.  Howard,  Master. 

Miss  Annie  L.  Howe,  Miss  Hattie  E.  Adams,  Mrs.  Matilda 
H.  P.  Cashing,  Miss  Hattie  M.  H.  Darling  (to  June  30,  1883), 
Miss  Hattie  F.  Packard  (since  Sept.  3,  1883),  Miss  Jennie  S. 
Hammond,  Miss  Helen  A.  Perry,  Teachers. 

The  only  change  in  the  organization  of  this  school  has  been 
occasioned  by  the  resignation  of  Miss  Darling,  of  the  Tenth- 
class,  after  three  years'  service,  during  which  time  she  has 


109 

proved  herself  a  painstaking  and  successful  teacher.  The 
vacancy  was  satisfactorily  filled  by  the  appointment  of  Miss 
Hattie  F.  Packard. 

In  the  earlier  portion  of  the  year  an  epidemic,  which  pre- 
vailed in  the  district,  occasioned  great  irregularity  in  atten- 
dance, and  materially  retarded  the  work  of  the  school-room. 
Since  the  commencement  of  the  Fall  term,  although  several 
cases  of  diphtheria  have  occurred  (one  of  them  fatal),  the 
general  health  of  the  school  has  been  exceptionally  good, 
with  but  little  absence  by  reason  of  sickness. 

The  master  and  teachers  have  labored  zealously  in  their 
several  departments,  and  have  well  sustained  their  previous 
good  reputation  for  efficiency  and  success. 

The  black-boards  were  repaired,  and  put  into  thoroughly 
good  condition  during  the  Summer  vacation,  and  the  fence 
around  the  school  grounds  was  painted. 

The  heaviest  item  in  this  year's  "incidentals"  is  a  new 
Magee  furnace,  piping,  etc.,  which  however,  was  bought 
and  placed  in  position  before  the  end  of  the  last  fiscal  year. 
It  has  supplied  a  long-felt  need,  and  the  Committee  have 
had  no  cause  for  complaint  the  present  winter  by  reason  of 
the  insufficient  heating  of  the  building.

Mr.  Franklin  H.  Dean,  Master. 

Miss  Annie  L.  Clarke,  Master's  Assistant. 

Miss  Frances  J.  Emerson,  Miss  Lucina  Dunbar,  Miss  Florence 
E.  Leadbeater  (to  June  29,  '83),  Miss  Clara  F.  Hall  (since  Sept. 
3,  '83),  Miss  Martha  A.  Alexander  (to  June  29,  '83),  Miss  Fan- 
ny E.  Harlow  (since  Sept.  3,  '83),  Miss  Jennie  H.  Soule  (since 
Sept.  3,  '83),  Miss  Genevieve  Brainard,  Miss  Ella  J.  Stocking  (to 
June  29,  '83),  Miss  Agnes  J.  Campbell  (since  Sept.  3,  '83),  and 
Miss  Leila  E.  Perry,  Teachers. 

It  has  been  the  good  fortune  of  this  school  for  a  number 
of  years  to  retain  substantially  the  same  organization,  but 
during  the  past  year  this  has  ceased  to  be  true.  At  the 
close  of  the  last  Spring  term,  and  during  the  vacation  fol- 
lowing, the  resignations  of  Misses  Alexander,  Leadbeacer 
and  Stocking  were  received.  The  loss  of  these  fiithful 
teachers  at  the  same  time  was  a  serious  one,  and  will  be  felt 
by  the  school  for  some  time  to  come.  At  the  beginning  of 
the  September  term,  Miss  Claiii  F.  Hall,  a  teacher  of  much 
experience,  w^as  placed  in  charge  of  the  Ninth  class,  and  is 
doing  excellent  work;  Miss  i'anny  E.  Harlow  and  Miss 
Agnes  J.  Campbell,  young  ladies  of  our  own  town,  were 
selected  for  the  rooms  formerly  of  Misses  Alexander  and 
Stocking.  They  are  giving  their  best  efforts  to  the  work, 
and  their  success  is  commendable. 


in 

At  the  opening  of  the  school  in  September  the  number  of 
pupils  wtis  greatly  in  excess  of  the  number  at  the  close  of 
the  school  iu  June.  Upon  classilication  it  appeared  neces- 
sary to  provide  another  room  for  divisions  of  the  Ninth  and 
Tenth  classes.  The  High  School  Committee  kindly  permit- 
ted us  to  transfer  the  desks  formerly  used  by  the  Advanced 
Grammar  class  from  the  High  school  building  to  the  hall  of 
the  Grew  building,  and  by  purchasing  sixteen  new  desks, 
Mr.  Dean's  classes  were  accommodated  in  the  hall,  where 
they  now  remain.  The  rooms  of  the  lower  classes  were 
tlien  so  assigned  that  the  room  formerly  used  by  the  Ninth 
class  was  left  vacant  for  the  new  school,  composed  of  divis- 
ions of  the  Ninth  and  Tenth  classes.  Miss  Jennie  H.  Soule, 
a  graduate  of  the  High  school,  was  selected  to  instruct  this 
school.  She  is  working  zeahnisly  in  the  position,  and  to  the 
satisfaction  of  the  Committee. 

The  large  increase  in  the  number  of  pupils,  w^ith  the 
Qhanges  in  organization,  greatly  adding  to  the  care  and  labor 
of  Mr.  Dean,  wc  were  authorized  by  the  Board  to  employ 
an  assistant  for  the  master's  room.  Miss  Annie  L.  Clarke, 
a  lady  of  successful  experience,  w^as  employed,  and  is  now 
doing  good  work.  We  feel  that  the  increased  efficiency  of 
the  organization  justifies  the  added  expense. 

The  work  cf  the  school  amid  these  changes,  has  gone  for- 
ward smoothly ;  the  teachers,  one  and  all,  showing  a  desire 
to  obtain  the  best  possible  results  under  the  circumstances. 
Much  credit  is  due  to  both  teachers  and  pupils  for  the  har- 
monious work  of  the  past  year.  All  have  seemed  to  have 
the  interest  of  the  school  at  heart,  and  have  striven  to  make 
the  year's  work  a  credit  to  themselves  and  to  the  town. 

While  all  branches  of  the  course  have  received  proper  at- 
tention, the  work  in  writing  is  especially  commendable,  as 
is  also/  that  in  map  drawing,  the  Fifth  and  Sixth  classes 
showing  some  good  work  in  raised  maps. 

In  closing,  we  must  strongly  urge  the  necessity  of  in- 
creased accommodations  for  this  district.      The  hall  is   not 


112 

well  adapted  for  a  school-room,  being  large,  poorly  lighted, 
and  in  extreme  cold  weather  but  poftrly  warmed,  even  with 
the  extra  furnace  added  during  the  year.  And  further,  the 
increase  of  the  number  of  pupils  to  above  five  hundred  so 
enlarges  all  classes  that  the  teachers  are  overworked,  and 
the  best  results  cannot  be  obtained. 

There  is  a  demand  for  a  new  school  building,  and  it  will 
shortly  become  an  absolute  necessity.  The  location  of  such, 
when  built  will  call  for  the  exercise  of  a  wise  discretion  if 
the  grading  of  the  schools  is  to  be  properly  preserved.

EVENING   SCHOOLS. 

Two  Evening  schools,  one  in  the  Grew  District  and  one 
in  the  Readville  District,  have  been  in  session  since  Decem- 
ber 1. 

Mr.  F.  H.  Dean  has  charge  of  the  school  in  the  Grew 
building,  assisted  by  Miss  Clark,  with  an  average  attendance 
of  twenty  scholars.  \ 

Mr.  Geo.  T.  Wiggin  has  charge  of  the  school  in  the, 
Damon  building,  assisted  by  Miss  Conlan,  with  an  average- 
attendance  of  thirty  scholars. 

For  several  years  there  has  been  a  growing  interest  iiXi 
evening  schools. 

There  are  many  people  in  our  community  who  are  not  at 
liberty  to  leave  their  work  in  the  day  time  for  study. , 

These  are  the  very  persons  who  stand  most  in  need  of 
better  opportunities  for  au  education  at  the  public  expense,, 
and  the  town  has  liberally  provided  to  give  this  class  of  our 
citizens  the  rudiments  of  knowledge,  which  may  be  the 
means  of  their  obtaining  more  profitable  employmeut,  and  to. 
elevate  and  strengthen  their  self-respect. 

MECHANICi!iL    DRAWING. 

A  school  for  instruction  in  Mechanical  Drawing  has  beeai 
opened  in  the  High  school  building — two  evenings  each, 
weekk  Michael  Golden,  of  the  Institute  of  Technology, . 
Boston,  is  the  instructor. 

The  class  numbers  about  thirty,  and  contains  some  of  our  • 
enterprising  mechanics,  and  young  men  who  propose  to  en- 
gage in  mechanical  pursuits. 

The  marked  success  of  the  school  gives  abundant  evidence 
of  the  wisdom  of  this  part  of  the  scheme  for  industrial  train- 
ing, which  now  so  largely  engrosses  public  attention.

MUSIC. 

Ghntlemen  of  the  School  Committee: 

Vocal  music  is  now  becoming  fully  established  and  recog- 
nized as  one  of  the  regular  studies  of  the  school-room. 

The  teachers  have  very  generally  co-operated  with  the 
special  teachers  in  maintaining  good  discipline,  and  in  many 
instances  have  further  aided  by  actively  engaging  in  the 
special  lesson. 

While  a  marked  difference  is  noticeable  in  the  results  ob- 
tained from  the  various  schools,  yet  nearly  all  are  doing  con- 
scientious work. 

That  the  best  results  may  be  obtained,  it  is  necessary  that 
the  same  methods  that  are  found  essential  in  other  studies 
be  applied  to  this  branch. 

The  pupils  quite  generally  enjoy  the  singing  lesson. 

Some  of  the  benefits  to  be  derived  from  the  study  of  vocal 
music  in  our  public  schools  are  well  brought  out  by  Prof. 
Tourgee,  when  he  says  that  "Where  music  is  taught  in  our 
public  schools,  the  ribald  songs  disappear  from  our  streets. 
It  holds  the  highest  rank  as  an  aid  to  memory.  The  power 
of  observation  and  expression  are  heightened  by  it ;  and, 
as  a  mental  discipline,  it  is  in  no  wise  inferior  to  the  vaunted 
stiK^y  of  ..mathematics." 

Respectfully  submitted, 

H.  J.  WHITTEMOEE, 

Teacher  of  Music  in  the  Pubh'c  Schools, 


TO  THE  CITIZENS  OF  HYDE  PARK, 


The  undersigned  would  most  respectfully  call  the  atten- 
tion of  the  public  to  the  foregoing  special  Reports  of  the  in- 
dividual schools  for  its  earnest  consideration.  These  Re- 
ports give  in  detail  a  history  of  another  year's  work,  the 
changes  that  have  taken  place,  and  show  the  general  condi- 
tion of  the  schools  at  the  present  time. 

In  the  maintenance  of  our  Public  Schools,  as  required  by 
law  and  an  enlightened  public  sentiment,  the  School  Com- 
mittee are  obliged  to  provide  for  the  education  of  all  the 
children  in  the  town,  of  school  age,  in  the  whole  range  of  de- 
sirable instruction,  from  the  simplest  elements  to  a  complete 
preparation  for  college  or  a  mercantile  or  business  life. 

The  Town  cheerfully  appropriates  a  liberal  sum  of  money 
annually  for  school  purposes,  and  to  give  each  child  the  best 
education  possible  with  the  means  provided  is  the  weighty 
responsibility  which  the  School  Committee  are  obliged  to 
assume. 

The  most  prominent  and  important  recommendation  made 
to  the  people  on  educational  matters  by  Gov.  Robinson  in 
his  inaugural  address  is  as  follows  ; 

'  <  The  most  promising  field  for  improvement  is  in  the  small 
towns  ;  they  cannot  make  sufficient  provision  for  the  highest 
success  ;  the  large  towns  can.  We  need  more  thorough,  in- 
telligent supervision,  especially  in  the  small  country  towns. 
Whatever  can  be  done  to  build  up  and  strengthen  these 
struggling  communities  will  bless  the  State  at  large.  More 
towns  should  avail  themselves  of  the  statute  authority  to  em- 
ploy a  superintendent,  if  not  alone,  then  in  union  with  their 


116 

neighbors.  Apply  this  system  generally,  and  the  benefits 
will  quickly  appear  in  better  teachers,  improved  methods  of 
instruction,  more  satisfactory  buildings  and  appliances,  and 
an  increased  attendance  of  pupils." 

If  Hyde  Park  could  secure  the  services  of  a  superintend- 
ent, glowing  with  enthusiasm  on  the  great  subject  of  popular 
education ;  a  man  wise  in  counsel  and  efficient  in  action, 
with  a  practical  good  sense,  which  would  win  the  confidence 
of  the  people ;  a  man  who  shall  know  what  elsewhere  has 
been  or  is  doing  on  the  subject  of  education,  and  who,,  with 
wise  discrimination,  should  give  the  benefit  of  such  knowl- 
edge to  us ;  who  would  create,  if  possible,  a  livelier  profes- 
sional enthusiasm  among  our  teachers  ;  who  would  establish  a 
training-school  in  our  midst,  the  better  to  prepare  those  of  our 
High  school  graduates,  who  desire  to  teach,  for  their  respon- 
sible and  difficult  labor ;  who  would  secure  frequent  meet- 
ings of  our  teachers,  particularly  those  teaching  in  the  same 
grade,  for  consultation  and  advice,  then  we  might  have  a 
partial  benefit  of  that  which  Gov.  Robinson  would  have  us 
enjoy. 

In  the  absence  of  such  supervision,  an  assistant  teacher  in 
each  master's  room  would  relieve  him  to  such  an  extent  that 
he  could  be  of  very  great  value  to  the  lower  grades. 

The  establishment  of  a  more  intimate  relation  of  our 
scholars  with  the  Public  Library  is  a  matter  that  is  receiv- 
ing thoughtful  consideration.  Supt.  Cogswell,  of  Cam- 
bridge, and  Supt.  Aldrich,  of  Quincy,  have  prepared  and 
published  in  their  Rej)orts  extensive  lists  of  books  on 
History,  Biography  and  Travel,  giving  to  each  the  number 
corresponding  to  their  catalogue  number,  and  a  widespread 
interest  for  this  kind  of  literature  has  been  created. 

Mr.  Dean,  Master  of  the  Grew  school,  has  already  pre- 
pare^ a  list  of  several  hundred  volumes,  and  we  trust  that 
the  co-operation  of  the  Library  Board  with  the  School  Com- 
mittee, teachers  and  parents  will  awaken  a  desire  on  the  part 
of  the  scholars  to  read  only  instructive  books.

BUTLER   SCHOOL. 


The  Supreme  Court  has  decided  that  the  legal  title  of  the 
Butler  school  property  on  River  street  is  still  vested  in  the 
Town,  and  the  Committee  have  unanimously  voted  to  ask 
for  an  appropriation  of  $500  to  repair  the  same. 

As  this  property  must^  by  the  provisions  ot  the  bequest, 
be  used  lor  school  purposes,  else  revert  to  the  donor,  the 
duty  of  the  Committee  is  plain. 

In  addition  to  the  sums  expended  by  the  Local  Commit- 
tees, as  appears  by  their  reports,  there  has  been  expended, 
generally  for  Incidental  Expenses,  the  sum  of  $440.31, 
which  does  not  appear  in  the  local  reports. 

Eespectfully  submitted,
