SELECTMEN'S    REPORT. 


Fellow  Citizens  : 

We  submit  for  your  consideration  the  following  report  of 
our  management  during  the  year  just  closed  of  the  duties 
intrusted  to  us. 

POLICE. 

This  department  has  been  in  all  respects  the  same  as  it 
was  the  previous  year,  and,  we  believe,  equally  as  efficient. 
We  have  no  special  recommendations  to  make,  and  for 
further  information,  invite  your  attention  to  the  report  of 
the  Chief. 

GRAVEL    PIT. 

We  have  purchased  from  the  Real  Estate  and  Building 
Co.,  for  $600,  a  gravel  pit  situated  in  the  Clarendon  Hills 
District. 

INCIDENTAL   APPROPRIATION. 

This  has  proved  barely  enough  to  meet  all  the  demands 
made  upon  it.  We  have  paid  from  this  appropriation  bills 
to  the  amount  of  $1,751.15  contracted  by  the  Board  of  Health 
in  excess  of  the  appropriation  made  for  their  use,  which  has 
been  wholly  insufficient  for  their  purposes  this  year  as  it 
was  last  year.  It  seems  evident  that  the  sanitary  needs  of 
a  town  of  upwards  of  10,000  souls  cannot  be  met  by  an 
appropriation  of  $500.  But  much  of  the  money  so  expended 
for  their  use  will  come  back  to  the  treasury  in  the  way  of 
betterments.' 


STREET    SUPERINTENDENT. 

Early  in  our  administration  we  decided  to  appoint  a  street 
superintendent,  and  place  under  his  charge  a  suitable  force 
of  men  and  teams,  of  such  size  that  each  could  be  properly 
looked  after  and  kept  constantly  at  work  by  one  man.  This 
force  has  been  employed  every  working  day  during  the 
year,  when  the  weather  did  not  prevent,  and  we  ask  your 
comparison  ot  the  results  accomplished  with  those  of  pre- 
vious years  when  no  superintendent  was  employed.  The 
following  tables  will  show  you  where  11,255  running  feet 
(or  2  miles,  12  rods,  and  4  feet)  of  macadamized  roadway 
has  been  built,  and  8,710  running  feet  of  sidewalk  and 
curbing.

WORK   ON    STREETS    AND    SIDEWALKS. 

With  feelings  of  pleasure  we  point  to  the  work  done,  not 
only  in  the  line  of  permanent  improvements,  shown  in  the 
preceding  tables,  but  also  in  keeping  our  streets  in  a  reason- 
ably safe  and  comfortable  condition.  There  having  been 
no  specific  appropriations  for  particular  streets,  we  have 
not  kept  and  cannot  present  a  detailed  statement  of  exact 
amounts  expended  on  highways  in  different  parts  of  the 
town.  Many  times  work  in  two  or  more  places  can  be 
economically  dovetailed  together  under  the  watchful  eye  of 
a  superintendent ;  as,  for  instance,  where  a  cut  in  one 
locality  provides  the  material  for  filling  in  another,  etc. 

Moreover,  we  have  endeavored  to  consider  the  highwav 
business  not  as  a  sectional  matter,  but  always  with  a  view 
to  the  interest  of  the  town  as  a  whole. 

So  we  may  summarize  by  saying  that  with  the  amount  at 
our  disposal,  about  $21,000,  we  have  kept  the  highways, 
generally,  in  a  reasonably  satisfactory  state ;  have  built 
over  two  miles  of  macadamized  road  and  nearly  9,000  feet 
of  sidewalk  and  curbing  ;  have  rebuilt,  at  a  cost  of  about 
$200,  the  stone  wall  on  Walnut  street,  at  the  foot  of  Oak 
street,  near  the  N.  Y.  &  N.  E.  R.  R.  ;  have  rebuilt  a  retain- 
ing wall  on  Williams  avenue,  at  a  cost  of  about  $300  ;  have 
built  a  high  retaining  wall  opposite  Mrs.  Carr's  house  on 
Pond  street,  to  make  good  the  damage  done  her  property 
when  the  street  was  cut  through  two  years  ago  ;  we  have 
a  ledge  well  opened  up  from  which  stones  for-  the  crusher 
can  be  cheaply  got ;  also  about  1,200  loads  of  stone  crushed 
and  ready  for  distribution  upon  our  streets  ;  and,  what  is  of 
no  little  importance,  we  have  a  trained  force  of  workmen 
for  this  department,  fitted  by  their  year's  experience  to 
render  much  more  efficient  service  than  any  new  levy  could  ; 


and  we  have  about  $3,500  in  the  treasury  yet  unexpended. 
These  results  seem  to  show  that  our  town  is  in  good  finan- 
cial  condition  so  far  as  its  highways  are  concerned,  and  may 
fairly  encourage  us  to  expect  that,  in  the  near  future,  every 
street  and  every  sidewalk  may  he  brought  up  to  the  best 
standard  for  our  use,  if  similar  appropriations  and  like 
methods  are  continued. 

All  the  sidewalks  built  this  year  have  been  made  under 
the  betterment  law,  with  the  additional  benefit  of  a  written 
agreement  made  by  the  whole  or  the  larger  part  of  the 
abuttors  to  pay  50  per  cent,  of  the  cost  within  thirty  days 
after  completion  of  the  work. 

Our  Board  felt  bound  to  give  priority  to  all  such  cases, 
because  it  was  so  plainly  for  the  advantage  of  our  citizens, 
as  it  enabled  the  same  money  to  be  used  two  or  three  times 
in  the  course  of  the  year;  thus  increasing  largely  the 
amount  of  improved  sidewalk  which  could  be  constructed 
from  the  appropriation  made,  and  so  enlarging  the  benefit 
to  every  citizen  who  has  occasion  to  use  our  ways.  More- 
over, this  policy  rendered  impossible  such  jealousies  as  arose 
from  the  way  in  which  the  sidewalks  were  located  in  1887 
and  1888,  and  saved  the  Board  from  any  suspicion  of  cater- 
ing to  particular  classes  or  sections. 

Agreeably  to  their  promise,  the  greater  part  of  the  abut- 
tors have  paid  their  assessments,  but  some  have  failed  to  do 
so,  and  there  is  now  due  the  town  on  this  account  $1,414.50. 
Some  of  those  who  have  not  paid  complain  that  the  side- 
walk is  not  equal  to  their  expectations,  These  complaints 
have  been  a  surprise  to  us,  as  they  were  first  made  long  after 
the  work  was  completed  and  notice  to  that  effect  given,  and 
when  the  frost  of  mid-winter  made  it  impossible  for  us  to 
properly  remedy  any  defects  which  time  had  made  apparent. 
The     new     sidewalks    are    somewhat    of    an    experiment. 


On  most  of  the  streets  they  are  entirely  satisfactory. 
Where  defects  have  appeared  we  have  frankly  admitted 
them  and  pledged  our  best  efforts  to  have  them  corrected 
in  the  early  Spring. 

Let  us  close  our  report  on  streets  and  sidewalks  by  pre- 
senting to  you  in  a  business  way  a  statement  of  net  cost  of 
these  for  the  year. 

The  sum  which  we  had  from  all  sources  in  cash  or  its 

equivalent  lor  sidewalks  and  streets  was  .         .     $21,321  48 

Of  this  there  is  now  in  the  treasury    .         .         $3,465  38 
There  is  due  for  betterments  lrom  work  done 

this  year 1,414  50 

There  are  1,200  loads  of  stone  ready  for  use, 

worth    .....  .  1,200  00 

The  value  of  I  he  ledge  opened  up,  and  platform, 

etc.,  built  this  year  and  ready  for  use  next,  is  1,000  00      $7,079  88 
Leaving  the  net  cost  to  taxpayers  of  the  year's  

work  on  streets  and  sidewalks  ....      $14,241  60 

If  you  will  compare  the  work  thus  done  at  a  net  cost  of 
$14,211.60,  with  that  done  including  betterments  received 
in  1886  at  a  cost  of  $32,702.04,  in  1887  at  a  cost  of 
$26,361.89,  and  in  1888  at  a  cost  of  $44,590.34,  we  think 
you  will  agree  that  when  business  principles,  which  include 
a  proper  organization,  are  applied  to  the  expenditure  of 
your  money,  the  results  are  profitable  and  satisfactory. 

ASSESSMENTS    OF    BETTERMENTS    ON    WORK    OF    1888. 

One  of  the  most  perplexing  matters  which  has  been 
forced  upon  our  attention  has  been  the  assessment  of  better- 
ments upon  abuttors  on  twenty-four  streets  which  were 
accepted  at  a  town  meeting  held  August  14,  1888,  and  for 
which  was  appropriated  sums  aggregating  $8,308  to  be 
raised  on  the  tax  levy  of  the  following  year  and  to  be  ex- 
pended on  those  streets  under  the  betterment   law.      When 


10 

the  matter  was  presented  at  the  town  meeting  the  acceptance 
of  those  streets  met  with  considerable  opposition  because 
there  had  already  been  spent  on  the  highways  that  year  over 
$30,000  made  up  of  money  raised  by  taxation  or  borrowed 
on  ten  years'  time.  But  the  urgency  of  those  interested  in 
their  acceptance,  coupled  with  the  representations  of  the 
Selectmen  that  this  money  would  be  expended  under  the 
betterment  law  and  would  therefore  soon  come  back  into 
the  treasury,  convinced  the  meeting  that  it  was  wise  to 
accept  the  streets  and  raise  the  necessary  money  on  the 
taxes  of  the  following  year.  Though  the  Selectmen  of  1888 
spent  that  money,  they  did  not  assess  the  betterments,  but 
left  that  important  and  delicate  duty  to  those  who  should 
come  after  them.  This  matter  was  first  called  to  our  atten- 
tion by  a  member  of  that  Board  last  June.  We  investi- 
gated and  found  that  immediate  action  must  be  taken  or  the 
town  would  lose  all  right  to  make  assessments.  We 
devoted  two  days  to  careful,  personal  examination  of  those 
streets  and  every  interest  involved,  and  then  made  assess- 
ments to  the  best  of  our  judgment.  On  a  considerable 
number  of  the  streets  we  could  not  conscientiously  assess 
anything  as  betterments,  and  only  where  we  saw  that  abut- 
tors  were  benefited  did  we  make  assessments,  aggregating 
$1,865.  When  it  is  remembered  that  $8,308  was  expended, 
the  figures  show  that  we  endeavored  to  be  careful  and  con- 
servative in  our  action,  yet  our  leniency  and  moderation  has 
met  with  no  recognition.  Of  those  assessed  but  twenty 
have  paid,  $170.91  in  all,  and  every  one  under  protest, 
while  one  of  the  parties  who  was  considered  the  most  bene- 
fitted has  begun  legal  proceedings  to  avoid  payment.  The 
situation,  then,  is  this  :  the  $8,308  spent  by  the  town  two 
years  ago  to  gratify  the  urgent  demands  of  a  portion  of  its 
citizens,  under  the  promise  that  the  money  so  spent  would 


11 

be  returned  in  betterments,  results  in  only  $470.91  coming 
back,  and  that  under  protest.  This  matter  we  report, 
fellow  citizens,  for  your  consideration  at  some  future  town 
meeting,  if  you  think  anything  further  should  be  done.  For 
ourselves,  while  we  make  no  claims  to  infallibility,  we  feel 
tbiit  we  have  been  sufficiently  moderate  in  our  estimate  of 
benefits. 

SUITS. 

Mr.  J.  N.  Bullard  had  brought  suit  against  the  town  for 
personal  injury,  laying  damages  at  $4,000.  On  trial,  judg- 
ment was  given  for  the  towrn. 

William  J.  Hayes  of  Dedham  sued  the  town  for  $2,000 
damages  received  from  a  telephone  wire.  On  trial  a  verdict 
in  favor  of  the  town  was  given.  The  case  has  been  taken 
to  the  Supreme  Court  on  exceptions,  which  will  be  argued 
in  March. 

A  claim  of  Thomas  Corrigan  for  damages  resulting 
from  raising  the  grade  of  a  street  is  a  legacy  from  1888. 
It  was  referred  to  the  committee  appointed  by  the  town  on 
the  "  Mur«*ay  Case,"  by  whom  Corrigan  was  awarded  $250. 

Maria  A.  Eustis  has  appealed  from  assessment  made  by 
us  for  betterments,  resulting  from  the  acceptance  and  grad- 
ing of  Warren  avenue.     This  matter  is  now  pending. 

METROPOLITAN   AVENUE. 

Early  in  the  year  we  received  notice  from  the  County 
Commissioners  of  a  petition  presented  to  them  by  some  of 
our  town's  citizens  asking  that  Metropolitan  avenue  be  laid 
out  from  the  Neponset  river  to  the  line  of  the  O.  C.  R.  R. 
As  this  was  the  first  instance  in  the  experience  of  our  town 
or,  so  far  :is  we  could  learn,  in  that  of  any  other,  where  the 
County  Commissioners  wrere  appealed  to  in  case  of  a  street 


12 

lying  wholly  within  the  boundaries  of  one  town  until  the 
town  authorities  had  been  first  requested  to  act  and  had  un- 
reasonably refused  or  neglected  to  do  so,  we  felt  it  our  duty, 
as  custodians  of  our  town's  dignity  and  rights,  to  object  to 
the  jurisdiction  of  the  Commissioners  in  this  matter  and 
oppose  the  action  requested.  And  this  the  more,  because 
no  town  in  this  County  has  spent  more  money  on  its  high- 
ways in  the  last  few  years  than  ours,  nor  shown  a  more 
ready  willingness  to  comply  with  any  just  or  reasonable 
demands ;  and  because  a  considerable  part  of  the  street 
asked  for  was  not  needed,  and  its  construction  would  call 
for  a  heavy  expense.  Numerous  hearings  were  had  before 
the  Commissioners,  who  eventually  made  a  decree  granting 
the  prayer  of  the  petitioners.  On  October  27th,  our  coun- 
sel presented  a  petition  to  the  Supreme  Court  setting  forth 
that  there  were  certain  irregularities  in  the  proceedings  of 
the  County  Commissioners,  and  praying  for  that  reason  that 
a  writ  of  prohibition  be  issued  prohibiting  the  Commissioners 
from  proceeding  further.  Upon  the  presentation  of  this 
petition  the  Court  issued  an  order  of  notice  to  the  Com- 
missioners to  show  cause  why  an  injunction  should  not  issue 
pending  the  proceedings  before  the  Court.  At  the  sugges- 
tion of  the  presiding  Justice,  it  was  agreed  that  no  action 
would  be  taken  until  the  case  could  be  fully  heard  on  the 
bill  and  answer,  which  will  be  in  May  next,  probably. 

Following  the  method  instituted  last  year,  and  which 
appeared  to  meet  your  approval,  we  here  present  our  esti- 
mates of  what  you  will  need  to  appropriate  to  meet  the 
current  expenses  of  the  town  for  the  ensuing  year,  giving  in 
a  parallel  column  the  sums  appropriated  for  the  same  pur- 
poses for  the  current  year.

less  than  three  years  ago.  All  the  estimates  in  departments 
other  than  that  of  schools  have  been  carefully  made.  There 
we  have  simply  taken  the  figures  of  last  year,  and  as  the 
appropriations  then  were  liberal,  and  the  sum  asked  for  a 
laboratory  will  not  be  wanted  again,  we  think  the  figures 
may  be  safe  to  base  our  estimate  upon. 

In  this  report  we  have  endeavored  to  put  you  in  posses- 
sion of  all  facts  and  information  which  would  seem  to  be 
useful  or  interesting  to  you.  We  hope  that  the  same 
will  meet  your  careful  and  candid  consideration.  If  the 
government  you  have  had  the  last  two  years  is  the  kind 
you  desire,  then  see  to  it  that  you  attend  the  town  meetings 
and  give  those  whom  you  have  elected  to  office  that  support 
which  is  needed  for  good  government,  and  not  leave  them 
as  targets  for  abuse  from  professional  fault-finders,  whose 
only  claim  to  notoriety  is  their  ability  to  excite  disturbing 
elements  to  the  injury  of  the  best  interests  of  our  town.

REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  HEALTH. 


In  compliance  with  the  requirements  of  the  Public 
Statutes,  the  Board  of  Health  herewith  presents  its  report 
for  the  year  1890. 

The  general  health  of  the  town  has  been  good. 

There  has  been  no  epidemic  of  diseases  during  the 
year. 

Our  citizens  are  giving  greater  attention  to  sanitary  ap- 
pliances and  measures,  and  with  beneficial  results. 

In  the  performance  of  its  duties,  which  have  been  more 
extended  and  arduous  than  during  previous  years,  the 
Board  has  endeavored  to  cause  as  little  inconvenience  as 
possible,  always  keeping  in  view  the  preservation  of  the 
publichealth. 

MEETINGS. 

The  Board  has  held  forty-five  meetings,  and  eight 
hearings,  during  the  year. 

According  to  the  last  U.  S.  census  report,  our  town  has 
a  population  of  nearly  11,060.  With  this  increased  popu- 
lation there  has  been  erected  a  proportionate  number  of 
dwelling-houses,  factories  and  mercantile  establishments, 
and  in  conjunction  therewith  cesspools  and  privy  vaults 
have  alarmingly  multiplied.  This  is  a  serious  matter,  de- 
manding the  consideration  of  our  citizens.  Many  of  the 
so-called  filth  diseases  are  traced  to  cesspools  and  privy 
vaults. 

Another    source    of    diseases  may  be    traced  to  damp 


16 

and  wet  cellars,  which  exist  in  many  localities.  In  the  ab- 
sence of  an  underground  system  of  drainage,  (which  is 
hereby  recommended,)  the  Board  believes  all  such  should 
be  cemented,  and  kept  free  from  garbage  or  dirt  of  any 
kind,  and  well  ventilated  in  pleasant  weather. 

The  foregoing  statements  lead  the  Board  to  conclude 
that  if  the  owners  and  tenants  of  houses  and  industrial  es- 
tablishments would  comply  with  these  suggestions,  and 
with  the  Rules  and  Regulations  of  the  Board,  many  cases 
of  sickness  might  be  avoided. 

The  following  Rules  and  Regulations  were  adopted  by 
the  Board  early  in  the  year  and  were  publicly  promul- 
gated through  the  local  newspapers  and  on  separate 
sheets. 

REGULATIONS  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 

[seal] 
OF  THE  TOWN  OF  HYDE   PARK. 


Public  Statutes,  Chapter  So,  Section*  tS  :  —The  Board  of  Health 
of  a  town  shall  make  such  regulations  as  It  judges  necessary  for  the  public 
health  and  safet}',  respecting  nuisances,  sources  of  filth  and  causes  ot 
sickness  within  its  town.  Whoever  violates  any  such  regulations  shall 
forfeit  a  sum  not  exceeding  one  hundred  dollars. 

In  accordance  with  the  foregoing  provisions  of  law  this  Board  makes 
the  following  regulations,  which  will  be  strictly  enforced. 

Regulation  i.  —  The  owner,  agent  or  occupant  having  the  care  of 
any  tenement  used  as  a  dwelling  house,  shall  furnish  the  same  with 
sufficient  drain,  under  ground,  to  carry  off  the  waste  water;  also  with  a 
suitable  privy  or  water  closet  sufficient  for  the  accommodation  of  all 
those  inhabiting  the  premises.  All  waste  pipes  from  water  closets,  sinks, 
bowls,  bath  and  other  set  tubs,  shall  be  suitably  trapped,  and  all  drains 
entering  cesspools  must  be  made  water  tight.  There  should  also  be  a 
trap  in  the  soil  pipe  between  the  house  and  cesspool  and  provision  made 
to  admit  air  into  said  pipe  between  the  house  and  trap. 


17 

Regulation  2. — All  privy  vaults,  unless  water  tight,  shall  be  so  con- 
structed that  the  inside  of  the  same  shall  be  at  least  five  feet  distant  from 
the  line  of  every  adjoining  lot  or  street,  and  from  any  dwelling  house, 
and  shall  be  provided  with  a  ventilation  through  the  roof;  the  same  shall 
not  be  used  as  cesspools  nor  receive  drainage  from  the  premises  ;  their 
contents  shall  not  be  allowed  to  leak  out  or  otherwise  become  offensive. 

Regulation  3. — All  waste  water  shall  be  so  conveyed  through  sufficient 
drains  under  ground,  to  a  reservoir  sunk  under  ground  as  shall  be 
approved  by  the  Board  of  Health.  No  person  shall  allow  any  drain  or 
the  overflow  of  any  cesspool  to  enter  any  running  stream,  or  any  drain 
constructed  for  surface  water,  and  no  person  shall  suffer  any  house  drain- 
age or  other  offensive  water  to  remain  in  any  cellar,  or  upon  any  lot  or 
vacant  ground  by  such  person  owned  or  occupied.  All  privy  vaults  and 
cesspools  within  thirty  feet  of  any  well  or  spring,  the  water  of  which  is 
used  for  domestic  purposes,  must  be  water  tight. 

Regulation  4. — The  Board  when  satisfied  upon  due  examination  that 
a  cellar,  room,  tenement  or  building  in  the  town  occupied  as  a  dwelling- 
place,  has  become  by  reason  of  the  number  of  occupants,  want  of^cleanli- 
ness  or  other  cause,  unfit  for  such  purpose,  and  a  cause  of  nuisance  or 
sickness  to  the* occupants  or  the  public,  may  issue  a  notice  in  writing  to 
such  occupants,  requiring  the  premises  to  be  put  in  proper  condition,  or 
if  the  Board  see  fit  they  may  require  the  premises  to  be  vacated  and  the 
same  shall  not  be  again  occupied  without  the  written  permission  of  the 
Board. 

Regulation  5. — No  person  shall  throw  or  put  into  any  public  place  or 
pond,  or  running  stream,  or  body  of  water,  or  in  anj'  other  place  where 
the  Board  of  Health  may  deem  it  a  nuisance,  any  dead  animal,  animal 
matter,  decayed  fruit  or  vegetables,  dirt  or  rubbish  whatever;  nor  shall 
any  person  throw  into  or  upon  any  flats  within  the  jurisdiction  of  the 
town,  any  dead  animals,  filth  or  offensive  matter. 

Regulation  6. — No  person  shall  remove,  or  carry  in  or  through  any 
of  the  streets,  lanes  or  avenues,  places  or  alleys  within  the  town  of  Hyde 
Park,  the  contents  of  any  cesspool,  vault  or  privy  well,  swill  or  house 
offal,  (either  animal  or  vegetable,)  or  grease  or  bones,  unless  a  permit  be 
granted  by  the  Board  of  Health  upon  such  terms  and  conditions  as  said 
Board  may  deem  necessary. 

Regulation  7. — No  person  shall  bury  swill  or  house  offal,  or  the  con- 
tents of  any  cesspool,  vaults,  privy,  or  privy  well  within  the  limits  of  the 
town  of  Hyde  Park  unless  a  permit  be  granted  by  the  Board  of  Health. 

Regulation  S. — Parties  will  be  licensed  by  the  Board  of  Health  to 
collect  swill  and  refuse  matter  from  houses  in  Hyde  Park  twice  a  week  or 
oftener,  and  all  housekeepers  and  others  are  directed  to  deliver  the  same 
to  those  duly  authorized  to  make  such  collection. 


18 


Regulation  9. — No  person  shall  bring  into  the  town,  keep  or  offer  for 
sale  any  diseased,  putrid,  stale  or  unwholesome  meat,  vegetables  or 
provisions. 

Regulation  10. — No  person  will  be  permitted  to  keep  any  swine  with- 
in the  limits  of  the  town  of  Hyde  Park  without  a  written  permit  from 
the  Board  of  Health. 

Regulation  ii. — Any  person  sick  with  the  small  pox  or  other  contagi- 
ous disease,  together  with  all  persons  in  attendance  upon  them,  and  the 
premises  where  such  sick  person  is,  will  be  subject  to  the  control  of  the 
Board,  and  no  person  shall- enter  or  leave  a  house  wherein  a  person  is  or 
has  been  sick  with  the  disease  or  in  any  way  come  in  contact  with  the  in- 
mates of  such  house  except  by  permission  of  the  Board. 

Regulation  12. — Whenever  the  Board  of  Health  shall  ascertain  that 
any  person  is  sick  with  small  pox,  scarlet  fever,  diphtheria,  or  any  other 
disease  dangerous  to  the  public  health,  the  Board  shall  at  their  discretion 
have  full  control  of  said  person  or  premises,  and  shall  if  they  deem 
proper,  order  the  premises  vacated. 

Regulation  13. — All  persons  are  warned  not  to  approach  a  house  or 
the  surrounding  premises  whereupon  is  displayed  a  disease  flag  by  day, 
or  a  red  light  by  night. 

Regulation  14. — The  bodies  of  all  persons  dying  of  small  pox,  scarlet 
fever,  typhus  fever  or  diphtheria  must  be  immediately  disinfected,  and 
placed  in  a  tight  coffin,  which  shall  not  be  reopened,  and  the  bed,  bed 
clothing,  and  other  clothing  used  by  any  such  person,  and  by  those  in 
attendance  on  him,  and  all  the  furnishings  of  the  sick  room,  thoroughly 
disinfected  before  being  taken  from  said  room.  In  the  above  case  no 
public  funeral  will  be  allowed  without  permission  from  the  Board  of 
Health. 

Regulation  15. — The  owner,  or  persons  having  charge  of  any  vehicle, 
public  or  private,  used  at  a  funeral  in  the  foregoing  cases,  to  carry  the 
deceased,  or  any  of  the  family  or  attendants  of  the  deceased,  shall  forth- 
with report  the  fact  to  the  Board  of  Health,  and  shall  thoroughly  disin- 
fect such  vehicle  before  the  same  is  again  used,  and  take  such  other  pre- 
caution as  the  Board  of  Health  shall  direct. 

Regulation  16. — Any  person  in  the  town  of  Hyde  Park,  who  knows 
or  suspects  any  domestic  animal  has  contagious  disease  (such  as  glanders 
in  horses  or  cholera  in  swine)  must  immediately  report  the  same  to  the 
Board  of  Health.  The  penalty  for  neglect  to  do  so  is  fine  or  imprison- 
ment. The  above  is  in  accordance  Avith  the  provisions  of  Chapter  252 
of  the  Acts  of  18S7. 

Regulation  17. — All  complaints  in  relation  to  nuisances  and  sources 
of  filth  injurious  to  the  public  health  and  safety,  must  be  made  in  writing 


19 

to  the  Board  of  Health,  Avith  a  description  of  said  nuisance  and  of  the 
premises  on  which  it  exists,  with  the  owner's  name,  if  known  to  the  com- 
plainant. Such  complaints  must  bear  the  signature  of  the  complainant. 
Whenever  such  complaint  shall  be  made  as  aforesaid,  the  Board  of  Health 
will  proceed  to  examine  the  premises  complained  of,  and  will  take 
measures  to  abate  the  nuisance,  if  such  is  found  to  exist. 

Fully  believing  that  a  large  proportion  of  contagious  diseases  originate 
from  unsanitary  conditions,  we  trust  we  shall  have  the  aid  of  all  citizens 
and  property  owners  in  carrying  out  the  above  regulations,  which  are 
based  on  statute  laws  and  the  sanitary  rules  of  our  large  towns. 

For  burial  permits  apply  to  A.  G.  Childs,  druggist,  30  Fairmount  Ave. 

CONTAGIOUS    DISEASES. 

In  all  cases  of  diphtheria,  typhoid  fever  and  scarlet 
fever  reported  to  the  Board,  placards  have  been  displayed 
and  the  premises  have  been  thoroughly  disinfected  by 
order  of  the  Board. 

The  following  blank  form  printed  on  postal  cards,  with 
Board  of  Health  of  Hyde  Park,  Mass.,  on  address  side, 
have  been  furnished  to  all  physicians  in  the  town,  so  far  as 
known  to  the  Board. 


The  Board  of  Health  is  hereby  notified  that 

age living  at  No is  ill  with 

Attending  Physician. 

Note  i.  Physicians  are  required  under  the  Public  Statutes,  Chapter 
98,  Section  2,  to  report  immediately  each  case  of  diphtheria,  typhoid 
fever,  scarlet  fever,  cholera  (Asiatic),  small  pox,  typhus  fever,  measles, 
membraneous  croup  or  cynanche  trachealis,  to  which  they  may  be  called. 

Note  2.  In  unnumbered  streets  a  favor  will  be  conferred  by  stating 
in  addition  to  the  name  of  the  street,  the  nearest  cross  street. 

The  number  of  contagious  diseases  reported  to  the 
Board  for  the  year  1890,  has  been  as  follows  : 

Diphtheria,  60  cases  with  21  deaths. 

Scarlet  Fever,  7      "  "                  o       " 

Typhoid  Fever,  38      "  "                  6       " 

Cynanche  Trachealis,      1      "  "                  1       "

for  the  year  1889. 

The  Board  have  condemned  one  well  and  one  spring 
found  to  be  unfit  for  domestic  purposes,  and  town  water 
ordered  put  in. 

There  have  been  many  dead  animals  removed  from  the 
Neponset  river  during  the  year  and  buried,  besides  quite  a 
number  gathered  up  in  various  places  in  town  and  also 
properly  buried. 

The  Board  of  Health  deprecates  the  custom  some 
people  have  of  throwing  dead  animals  into  the  rivers, 
brooks  and  ponds  within  the  limits  of  our  town.  Near  the 
rr  red  bridge  "  about  a  dozen  dead  and  decaying  dogs  and 
cats  were  taken  out  at  one  time,  the  same  having  lodged 
at  that  point,  and  by  order  of  the  Board  were  buried. 

EXPENDITURES. 

The  Board  decided  to  employ  Frank  Hukin  and  C.  H. 
Crumett  to  collect  swill  and  house  garbage,  and  upon  same 
conditions  as  last  year,  and  the  Board  feel  satisfied  that 
they  have  faithfully  performed  their  duty. 

The  manner  in  which  the  $500  appropriated  for  the 
use  of  this  Board  has  been  expended  will  be  seen  by  refer- 
ence to  the  statistical  tables.  In  addition  to  this  the  Board 
have  incurred  liabilities  and  approved  bills  to  the  amount 
of  $907 .05 ,  of  which  $796 .05  have  been  paid  by  the  Select- 
men from  their  incidental  appropriation,  and  $111  remains 
unpaid.     Of  the   amount  paid  $300  was  for  filling,  etc., 


21 

near  Elm  and  Arlington  streets  to  abate  the  nuisance  exist- 
ing there  in  the  form  of  wet  and  rotten  lands  and  stagnant 
water ;  $46  were  for  plans  necessary  to  wisely  consider 
the  petitions  relating  to  such  nuisances  in  the  above-named 
locality,  on  Davison  street,  and  near  the  O.  C.  R.  R.  sta- 
tion;  $41.25  were  for  clerical  service;  $24.80  were  for 
miscellaneous  purposes  and  $384  were  on  account  of  ex- 
penses in  removing  swill  and  house  garbage.  This  latter 
work  is  in  itself  of  a  magnitude  to  cost  more  than  double 
the  amount  appropriated  by  the  town  for  all  purposes.  It  is 
unnecessary  to  dilate  upon  the  importance  of  the  duties 
which  are  devolved  upon  the  Board  of  Health  by  the  laws 
of  our  State,  and  which  it  is  obliged  to  attend  to  so  far 
as  lies  in  its  power,  whether  hampered  by  insufficient 
appropriations  or  not.  It  is  to  be  noticed  that  every 
citizen,  whenever  he  feels  that  his  health  is  menaced 
by  unsanitary  conditions,  is  extremely  urgent  that  the 
Board  take  immediate  and  thorough  measures  of  relief  re- 
gardless  of  expense.  If  a  somewhat  similar  recognition  of 
the  usefulness  of  the  Board  was  manifested  when  the  ques- 
tion of  appropriations  was  under  consideration,  such  action 
would  be  taken  that  the  Board  would  not  need  to  rely  on 
the  good  will  of  the  Selectmen  to  enable  it  to  meet  its  ob- 
ligations and  transact  the  business  which  it  was  elected  to 
do.  It  seems  fitting  that  the  Board  of  Health  should  here 
express  its  appreciation  of  the  kindly  and  courteous  man- 
ner in  which  the  present  as  well  as  the  last  Board  of  Se- 
lectmen have  seconded  and  supplemented  its  efforts  to 
promote  the  good  health  of  the  town. 

LOW,    WET    AND    ROTTEN    LANDS. 

Late  in  the  month  of  March  an  overflow  of  water  took 
place  flooding  a  considerable  portion  of  the  territory  be- 


22 

tween  Davison  and  Pierce  streets,  and  of  the  land  lying 
east  of  the  latter  street,  invading  cellars,  cesspools  and 
privy  vaults,  washing  out  their  contents  and  mixing  them 
with  the  flood  surrounding  the  numerous  dwellings  in  that 
locality. 

Pending  the  performance  of  those  acts  required  by  law 
to  give  jurisdiction  in  such  cases  to  this  Board,  the  Select- 
men, in  view  of  the  grave  character  of  the  emergency, 
placed  the  steam  fire  engines  on  the  spot  and  pumped  the 
water  out  into  the  gutters,  by  which  it  was  discharged 
into  the  Neponset  river. 

Petitions  being  speedily  prepared  and  presented  to  this 
Board,  due  notices  given  to  all  interested,  and  hearings 
held,  the  Board  took  action,  and  constructed  a  new  drain 
from  a  point  on  land  of  one  Pierce,  to  a  drain  on  land  of 
Mr.  Higgins,  with  two  large  catch  basins  at  proper  points 
between.  This  is  considered  a  work  of  a  permanent 
nature,  and  calculated  to  prevent  a  similar  catastrophe  in 
the  future. 

The  cost  of  work  done  by  the  Board  here  was  $697.81, 
which  has  been  apportioned  among  the  persons  and  estates 
benefitted. 


A  complaint  was  received  in  April  concerning  wet  and 
malarial  land  off  Elm  street  and  back  of  General  Carring- 
ton's  residence  on  East  River  street. 

Notices  were  given  and  hearings  were  held  as  required 
by  law,  and  the  Board  adjudged  the  premises  a  nuisance 
and  proceeded  to  remedy  the  same  by  filling  the  deep  mud 
hole  with  stones  and  gravel,  and  constructing  a  covered 
stone  drain  connecting  with   an    open    drain,   leading   to 


23 

West  street,  which  was  cleaned  out  and  graded  so  as  to 
conduct  its  water  into  the  existing  West  street  drain. 

By  this  action  has  been  removed  a  long-standing  cause 
of  sickness  and  complaint  on  the  part  of  the  residents  in 
that  populous  district. 

The  cost  of  this  work  was  $300,  more  than  half  of 
which  was  assessed  to  those  immediately  benefitted. 


The  condition  of  the  low  lands  by  the  Hyde  Park  Station 
of  the  Old  Colony  Railroad  have  been  the  subject  of  com- 
plaint, and  petitions  to  previous  Boards  of  Health,  which 
have  attempted  to  mitigate  the  evil  at  a  small  expense 
to  the  land  owners. 

Such  action  having  not  proved  effectual,  complaint  was 
made  to  this  Board,  May  last,  upon  which  repeated  hear- 
ings were  held,  at  which  were  present  the  treasurer  and 
others  of  the  Real  Estate  &  Building  Company,  and 
prominent  officials  of  the  Railroad  Corporation,  as  well  as 
many  of  our  citizens  of  the  neighborhood.  Grave  ques- 
tions as  to  the  existence  and  location  of  former  natural 
drains  arising,  and  the  corporations  interested  having 
given  the  Board  reasonable  encouragement  to  believe  that 
they  would  take  such  steps  as  would  remove  the  necessity 
for  further  complaint,  this  Board  thought  it  inexpedient 
to  pass  any  formal  orders  or  requirements. 

A  portion  of  what  was  indicated  has  already  been  done, 
and  the  Board  looks  for  further  action  when  the  season 
will  permit.  This  matter  has  been  attended  with  no 
further  cost  to  the  town  than  the  legal  notices  and  services, 
and  of  plans  prepared  by  our  surveyor,  which  will  prove 
of  future  value. 


24 

Other  matters  have  been  brought  to  the  notice  of  the 
Board  by  a  petition,  to  which  it  has  endeavored  to  give 
faithful  attention,  and  to  provide  such  remedies  as  circum-

TERM     OF    OFFICE. 

The  attention  of  the  citizens  of  the  town  is  called  to  the 
advisability  of  extending  the  term  of  office  of  their  health 
officials  to  three  years.  This  has  become  the  rule  in 
most  places  where  health  boards  exist.  As  is  now  the 
custom,  there  is  a  possibility  of  an  entirely  new  board 
being  elected,  and  thus  jeopardizing  the  sanitary  interests 
of  the  town,  from  lack  of  experience.  In  case  the  town 
should  make  this  change,  there  will  be  one  retiring  mem- 
ber annually,  and  one  new,  writh  two  members  of  the 
Board  acquainted  with  the  work  of  previous  years  pertain- 
ing to  the  Health  Department. 

The  Board  of  Health  would  therefore  respectfully 
present  this  proposed  change  for  your  consideration.

REPORT  OF  THE  OVERSEERS  OF  POOR. 


To  the  Citizens  of  Hyde  Park  : 

The  Overseers  of  the  Poor,  in  submitting  their  annual 
report  for  the  year  ending  Jan.  31,  1891,  have  occasion  to 
repeat  the  statement  of  last  year,  that  "  a  majority  only  of  the 
Overseers  append  their  signatures  to  the  report  of  the  depart- 
ment under  their  charge."  Our  associate,  Dr.  C.  C.  Hayes, 
who  was  elected  a  member  of  this  Board  in  March  last, 
resigned  last  fall,  owing  to  a  distressing  domestic  affliction, 
and  subsequently  removed  from  town.  For  many  years  Dr. 
Hayes  had  been  connected  with  this  department  as  town 
physician,  and  had  rendered  efficient  service.  His  loss  to 
the  town  as  a  faithful  official  is  to  be  regretted  by  all. 

The  Board  have  endeavored  to  the  best  of  their  ability  to 
deal  promptly  with  and  carefully  provide  for  the  wants  of  all 
worthy  cases,  and  to  give  such  attention  to  the  unworthy  as 
in  their  judgment  was  required.  In  the  disbursement  of 
partial  support  or  relief,  great  care  is  necessary  in  dealing 
with  pauperism,  lest  it  be  increased  by  too  generous  giving 
of  aid  to  those  applying  for  it  and  the  evil  increased  rather 
than  averted.  A  thorough  and  careful  investigation  of  all 
cases  has  been  made  before  giving  assistance,  and  the  fami- 
lies frequently  visited.

CHARLES   LEWIS, 
JOHN   TERRY, 

Majority  of  Overseers  of  Poor. 


REPORT    OF    TRUSTEES     OF    THE     PUBLIC 

LIBRARY. 


Public  Libraries  are  now  fully  recognized  as  a  most  im- 
portant part  of  the  educational  system  of  the  State,  and  the 
Commonwealth  itself  has  recently  taken  action  looking  to 
their  establishment  in  towns  not  already  provided  with  the 
same.  In  1888,  a  statute  was  passed  requiring  towns  having 
free  Public  Libraries  to  elect  by  ballot  trustees  of  such 
Libraries,  established  and  regulated  the  duties  of  such 
trustees,  and  required  them  to  annually  make  an  explicit  re- 
port of  their  receipts  and  expenditures,  of  the  property  in 
their  charge,  and  any  bequest  or  donations  received  by  them, 
together  with  "  such  recommendations  in  reference  to  the 
same  as  they  may  deem  necessary  for  the  town  to  consider." 
In  1 889,  further  provisions  of  the  same  nature  were  made, 
and  in  1890,  an  act  was  passed  to  "promote  the  establish- 
ment and  efficiency  of  free  public  libraries,"  constituting  a 
State  board  of  Library  Commissioners  (who  serve  without  pay) 
to  advise  with  librarians  and  trustees,  and  also  providing,  to 
a  limited  extent,  for  financial  aid  by  the  state  in  establishing 
Libraries  in  towns  not  already  provided  with  the  same. 
Pursuant  to  and  in  fulfillment  of  the  foregoing  requirements 
of  law,  this  report  is  submitted  : 

BETTER    ACCOMMODATIONS. 

It  is  necessary  to  reiterate  again  the  pressing  need  of  far 
better  accommodations  for  the  Library.  No  more  cases  for 
books  can  be  placed  in  the  space  now  reserved  for  that 
purpose.     During  the  coming  year  it  will   undoubtedly  be 


29 

necessary  to  encroach  upon  the  limited  space  now  provided 
as  a  reading  room.  Even  that  will  be  a  mere  expedient  and 
will  not  relieve  us  from  our  difficulty  but  a  very  short  timjg, 
The  catalogue,  issued  in  1887,  is  exhausted,  and  no  new 
catalogue  should  be  issued  until  there  is  opportunity  for  a 
much  needed  re-classification  of  books.  This  cannot  be  done 
in  our  present  quarters.  There  are  none  of  the  town  offices 
that  are  used  by  so  many  of  our  residents  as  the  Library, 
and  no  department  of  the  town,  except  its  schools,  comes  in- 
to such  immediate  relations  with  its  houses.  Prompt  action 
is  necessary  to  meet  the  emergency.  Seven  towns  of  Norfolk 
county  already  have  special  buildings  for  Library  purposes, 
and  still  others  have  provided  adequate  quarters  in  buildings 
owned  by  the  respective  towns.  The  Treasurer's  report 
shows  a  fund  of  $5,722.21  now  available,  and,  as  was  said  in 
the  report  of  last  year,  our  present  rental  is  sufficient  to 
meet  the  interest  on  ten  thousand  dollars.  More  commo- 
dious quarters,  if  such  can  be  found,  (we  know  of  none,) 
will  require  a  still  greater  rental.  It  is  obvious  that  a  suitable 
Library  building  does  not  necessarily  mean  an  increased 
burden  to  the  town. 

BOOKS    AND    CATALOGUES. 

During  the  past  year  five  hundred  and  sixty  volumes  have 
been  added  to  the  Library,  thirty-four  volumes  by  donation, 
and  five  hundred  and  twenty-six  Volumes  by  purchase.  The 
total  number  of  volumes  now  in  the  Library  is  about  eleven 
thousand  five  hundred.  Besides  the  above,  the  Current 
magazines  are  provided  for  use  in  the  reading  room  and  out- 
side circulation.  The  total  circulation  of  the  Library  for  the 
past  year  has  been  33,452.  There  have  been  1,119  magazines 
and  917  volumes  used  in  the  reading  room. 

The  character  of  the  circulation  has  not  changed  materially 
from  previous  years.     A  second  supplementary  catalogue  of 


30 

twenty-eight  pages  has  been  issued  and  includes  all  books 
added  to  the  Library  from  November,  1887,  to  January,  1890, 
The  original  catalogues,  as  hereinbefore  stated,  are  exhausted. 

HISTORICAL    SOCIETY'S    LIBRARY. 

The  Library  of  the  Historical  Society  has  been  placed  up- 
on a  substantial  basis  and  opened  for  use- by  its  members. 
This  Library  is  rapidly  increasing  in  size  and  value,  and  now 
contains  over  six  hundred  volumes,  files  of  local  newspapers, 
and  several  hundred  pamphlets.  These  are  largely  works 
not  found  in  the  Public  Library,  and  supplement  the  same. 
If  some  arrangement  could  be  made  providing  rooms  for  its 
Library  adjoining  the  Public  Library,  and  the  use  of  the 
library  of  the  Historical  Society  secured  to  all  our  citizens, 
it  would  be  an  advantage  to  the  town. 

ELECTRIC    LIGHTING. 

The  Trustees  desire  to  light  the  Library  by  electricity. 
To  do  this  will  require  a  slight  increase  in  the  annual  appro- 
priation. 

CHARLES    C.    HAYES. 

The  Library  has  met  with  a  great  loss  in  the  removal 
from  our  town  of  Dr.  Hayes.  He  had  been  an  earnest  and 
faithful  trustee  of  this  Library  continuously  since  March, 
1879. 

STATEMENT    OF    FINANCIAL    CONDITION    AND    PROPERTY. 

Reference  is  made  to  the  report  of  the  Town  Treasurer  for 
a  statement  of  the  financial  condition  of  the  Library,  and  its 
receipts  and  expenditures.  A  schedule  of  property  under 
our  care  is  herewith  submitted.

In  presenting  my  annual  report  for  the  year  it  gives  me 

great  pleasure,  in  the  discharge  of  what  I  deem  my  duty, 


31 

as  well  as  my  privilege,  to  make  at  this  time  some  sugges- 
tions, as  well  as  a  report  in  regard  to  the  police  service  of 
our  town.  We  are  io-chiy  one  of  the  largest  towns  in  the 
Commonwealth,  having  between  ten  and  eleven  thousand 
inhabitants  ;  with  our  present  small  police  force  and  limited 
means  to  work  with  we  demonstrate  that  we  are  a  model 
town,  as  far  as  good  order  and  quietness  are  concerned,  for 
as  it  is  considered  in  police  circles  that  one  officer  is  required 
for  each  one  thousand  inhabitants,  we  do  not  need  this 
number  in  our  quiet  town  ;  but  I  am  clearly  of  the  opinion 
that  we  should  have  more  officers  to  further  protect  the 
rights  and  property  of  our  citizens. 

During  the  last  few  years  the  population  as  well  as  the 
valuation  of  our  town  has  materially  increased,  but  there 
has  not  been  a  corresponding  increase  in  the  number  of  our 
officers  delegated  to  regular  service.  I  therefore  at  this 
time  recommend  for  the  consideration  of  your  honorable 
Board,  and  through  you  to  the  town,  the  advisability  of 
having  two  men  in  the  centre  of  the  town,  during  the  even- 
ing and  night,  with  some  additional  protection  for  our  out- 
lying districts,  which  we  are  not  now  able  with  our  small 
force  to  give  adequate  attention.  With  a  larger  appropria- 
tion and  more  men  on  active  duty  the  citizens  of  our  town 
would  be  fully  compensated  and  satisfied  for  this  extra 
outlay. 

CHAELES   E.    JENNEY, 
Chief  of  Police  and  Keeper  of  Lockup. 


ENGINEERS'  REPORT. 

To  the  Honorable  Board  of  Selectmen  : 

Gentlemen  :  We  herewith  present  to  you  our  annual  re- 
port for  the  year  ending  Jan.  31st,  1891,  together  with  the 
record  of  fires  and  losses. 

Unlike  many  towns  in  the  State,  we  have  no  report  of  large 
or  disastrous  fires,  there  being  only  fifteen  alarms  during  the 
year,  and  only  one  fire  of  any  magnitude,  which,  owing  to  the 
efficient  hydrant  service,  enabled  us  to  confine  it  to  the  block 
in  which  it  originated. 

We  recommended  in  our  report  last  year  the  addition  of 
fifty  or  sixty  more  hydrants,  provided  they  could  be  con- 
tracted for  at  a  reasonable  figure,  and  we  hope  the  town 
will  see  the  necessity  of  taking  action  at  once,  as  many  por- 
tions of  our  town  would  suffer  serious  losses  in  case  of  fire, 
and  the  Fire  Department  would  be  of  little  use,  owing  to  the 
long  distance  from  water  supply,  if  called  to  these  localties. 

FIRE    ALARM. 

The  Fire  Alarm  is  in  good  condition  and  has  proved  satis- 
factory in  every  way.  At  the  commencement  of  the  year 
we  added  eight  new  boxes  located  as  follows  : 

Box    4  Cor.  East  River  and  West  Sts. 

"       7  Engine  House. 

"       8  Cor.  Hyde  Park  Ave.  and  West  St. 

"      13   Gordon  Ave.  near  Grew  School. 

"     14  Cleveland  and  Childs  Sts. 

"     32  Beacon  St.  and  Milton  Ave. 

"     34  Summit  St.  and  Fairmount  Ave. 

"     35  Dana  Ave.  and  Loring  St. 


3(5 

The  work  was  done  under  supervision  of  E.  A.  Hzwley, 
Steward  of  Engine  House,  who  has  the  care  of  Fire  Alarm, 
thereby  giving  the  town  more  boxes  for  the  money  appro- 
priated than  if  done  by  outside  parties.  We  have  also  con- 
structed a  Battery  Room  in  the  basement  of  Engine  House 
for  the  better  care  and  protection  of  battery.  There  are 
still  portions  of  our  town  that  need  alarm  boxes,  and  we  hope 
to  see  them  put  in  so  that  all  parts  of  our  town  will  share  the 
protection. 

HOSE. 

A  special  appropriation  was  made  of  $500.00  to  purchase 
hose.  We  invited  bids  from  the  leading  dealers  in  hose, 
and  finally  obtained  800  feet  of  good  cotton  hose,  which  was 
much  needed,  and  gives  us  now  about  3,000  feet  of  good  hose 
and  1,500  feet  of  old  hose.  The  apparatus  is  all  in  good  con- 
dition.

REPORT  OF   THE   SCHOOL  COMMITTEE. 


To  the  Citizens  of  Hyde  Park  t 

The  public  schools  of  your  town  have  completed  another 
year  of  their  history  since  our  last  report.  We  believe 
that  it  has  been  a  year  of  steady  and  systematic  work  and 
therefore  of  much  value  to  the  children  in  attendance. 

No  radical  changes  have  been  made  in  methods  and  very 
few  changes  in  the  corps  of  teachers  have  occurred,  so  that 
the  work  of  the  year  has  been  carried  forward  smoothly 
and  without  friction,  conditions  always  to  be  desired  in 
school  work.

TEACHEKS. 


The  schools  during  the  past  year  have  had  the  benefit  of 
experienced  teachers,  many  of  whom  have  been  in  the  ser- 
vice of  the  town  for  several  years.  These  teachers  fully 
understand  our  school  system  and  the  character  of  the  work 
desired.  They  have  a  good  knowledge  of  the  pupils  them- 
selves, from  associations  with  parents  and  a  general  knowl- 
edge of  their  home  training.  These  are  advantages  which 
enable  them  to  carry  on  their  work  with  greater  ease  to 
themselves  and  with  better  results  to  the  children.  A  new 
teacher  has  much  to  learn  in  these  directions,  be  he  ever  so 
capable,  before  the  best  results  can  be  expected.  The  town 
during  the  past  year  has  been  very  fortunate  in  retaining  its 
teachers,  and  when  a  few  more  years  shall  have  elapsed  and 
the  annual  interest  account  of  the  town  shall  have  been  sub- 
stantially reduced,  a  comparatively  small  amount  can  then 
be  added  to  our  salary  appropriations  and  Hyde  Park 
will  be  placed  in  a  position  where  it  will  not  be  the  constant 
stamping-ground  of  school  officers  from  neighboring  cities 
and  towns  in  search  of  good  teachers.  This  often  Avorks 
serious  injury  to  our  schools,  as,  without  regard  to  the  fact 
that  teachers  have  been  employed  for  a  year,  and  the  best 
interest  of  our  schools  demand  that  they  remain,  school 
officers  from  cities  or  towns  that  can  pay  an  increased 
salary  unhesitatingly  negotiate  with  these  teachers  and  in- 


130 

cluce  them  to  enter  their  employ  without  regard  for  the 
rights  and  interests  of  our  schools.  We  shall  be  glad  when 
the  town  can  afford  to  put  an  end  to  this  practice. 

COURSE    OF    STUDY. 

Some  eight  or  ten  years  ago  the  course  of  study  was  care- 
fully revised,  and  with  slight  modifications  in  a  few  particu- 
lars this  course  has  remained  unchanged.  Practically,  how- 
ever, the  work  of  the  schools  is  not  in  conformity  with  the 
printed  course  in  many  and  important  matters.  In  order 
that  our  printed  course  might  be  a  guide  for  the  teachers, 
especially  such  as  should  be  just  entering  our  employment, 
it  was  deemed  wise  to  revise  the  whole  course,  and  a  sub- 
committee now  has  the  work  in  charge  and  is  making  a 
thorough  investigation  into  the  whole  matter.  Conferences 
have  been  had  with  the  teachers  of  the  various  grades  and 
the  work  and  needs  of  each  department  carefully  examined. 
When  the  sub-committee  reports  it  is  probable  that  a  re- 
vised course  will  be  adopted  which  may  modify  the  present 
work  in  some  particulars,  and  be  ready  for  the  schools  at  the 
beginning  of  the  school  year  in  September. 

TEXT    BOOKS. 

In  conn.nection  with  the  revision  of  the  course  of  study 
often  comes  the  matter  of  changes  in  text  books.  Many  of 
our  text  books  were  adopted  at  the  time  of  the  general  re- 
vision of  the  course  above  mentioned.  It  may  be  found 
desirable  to  change  some  of  these  should  the  present  course 
be  materially  modified.  This  matter  has  been  referred  to 
the  committee  at  work  upon  the  course  of  study  for  exami- 
nation and  recommendations. 

MUSIC. 

The  results  in  music  have  not  been  as  satisfactory  as  we 
hoped  at  the  time  of  our  last  report.     A  sub-committee  has 


131 

been  especially  charged  with  the  careful  investigation  of  the 
whole  matter,  that  we  may  determine  whether  the  trouble  is 
due  to  the  system  or  a  lack  of  support  of  the  music  teacher 
by  those  charged  with  the  execution  of  the  work  as  assigned 
by  him.  A  strong  feeling  prevails  that  there  should  be 
more  interest  and  better  results,  and  when  it  becomes  ap- 
parent from  the  report  of  the  sub-committee  what  remedy 
will  correct  the  fault,  it  will  be  promptly  applied. 

SEWING. 

This  branch  of  industrial  work  has  been  continued  in  the 
same  grades  as  last  year  with  satisfactory  results..  The 
only  drawback  seems  to  be  in  finding  proper  and  interesting 
work  for  the  lads  of  these  grades  during  the  hour  each  week 
devoted  to  these  lessons. 

ATTENDANCE. 

The  town  is  to  be  congratulated  upon  the  freedom  of  the 
schools  from  contagious  diseases  during  the  year,  and  in 
fact  it  has  been  a  number  of  years  since  we  have  had  any 
trouble  from  this  source.  It  has  been  our  care  to  guard 
the  health  of  the  children  in  every  way  possible.  The 
rooms  and  buildings  are  watched  with  care  and  nothing  of 
an  unhealthy  character  is  allowed  to  remain,  and  disinfectants 
are  freely  used  both  in  the  rooms  and  out  buildings.  Text 
books  are  carefully  watched  and  often  treated  with  the  dis- 
infectant. Every  effort  is  made  by  the  committee,  teachers 
and  janitors  to  have  the  surroundings  of  the  children  as 
healthful  as  possible.  When  the  health  of  the  children  is 
well  guarded  the  attendance  will  be  well  sustained. 

This  has  been  the  case  during  the  past  year.  Another 
thing  that  helps  to  keep  up  the  attendance  is  the  careful  in- 
terest of  parents  to  see  that  the  children  are  regularly  sent 
to  school.     A  laxness  here  sometimes   works  great  injury 


132 

not  only  to  the  pupil  himself  but  to  the  whole  school.  We 
have,  however,  little  cause  to  complain  of  this  in  Hyde 
Park. 

STANDARD    OF    SCHOLARSHIP. 

In  the  interest  of  better  preparation  for  the  High  School 
as  well  as  of  better  work  in  the  last  years  of  the  Grammar 
School  Course,  it  was  resolved  by  the  Committee  quite  early 
in  the  year  to  require  an  average  mark  of  75  per  cent,  from 
the  Grammar  graduates  to  entitle  them  to  diplomas  and  to 
admission  to  the  High  School.  This  course  seems  necessary, 
as  it  had  been  the  practice  for  a  number  of  years  to  refer 
candidates  for  Grammar  School  diplomas  who  had  failed  of 
the  required  per  cent,  to  their  respective  local  committees, 
with  power  to  grant  a  diploma  if  upon  investigation  any  spe- 
cial cause  appeared  which  would  entitle  them  to  the  certificates. 
When  this  was  cloue  some  pupil  would  succeed  in  making 
a  case  which  would  seem  to  entitle  him  to  a  diploma,  and 
then  as  it  is  hard  to  draw  nice  distinctions  in  these  cases,  the 
result  would  usually  be  that  all  would  take  the  diploma  and 
enter  the  High  School. 

The  evil  effects  of  this  were  twofold  at  least.  It  tended  to 
careless  work  in  the  Grammar  Schools  and  lowered  the 
standard  of  the  High  School.  Upon  examination  last  sum- 
mer out  of  a  class  of  ninety-seven,  twenty-three  were  found 
to  be  below  the  required  75  per  cent.  ;  of  these  twenty- 
three,  seven  were  below  70  per  cent.,  and  but  two  below 
65  per  cent.,  and  none  below  64  per  cent.  As  many 
towns  require  but  65  per  cent,  for  admission  to  High 
Schools,  and  some  even  require  as  low  as  60  per  cent.,  it  will 
be  seen  that  the  average  of  the  Grammar  classes  was  very 
creditable,  when  tried  by  the  standard  of  other  towns.  The 
rule  was  adhered  to  in  all  cases.  A  supplementary  exam- 
ination wTas  given  in  August  to  such  scholars  as  desired  to 
work  through  vacation  and  try  to  obtain  the  requiied  per 


133 

cent.  About  fourteen  applied,  but  only  two  were  successful 
in  passing  this  examination  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  com- 
mittee. 

Many,  of  those  who  failed  are  taking  another  year  in  the 
master's  classes  of  the  Grammar  schools,  and  from  our  past 
experience  it  is  confidently  expected  they  will  be  well 
equipped  for  graduation  and  an  entry  into  the  High  School 
the  coming  year.  We  believe  the  effect  of  this  rule  is  good 
and  will  result  in  better  and  closer  work  through  the  whole 
Grammar  course.  It  certainly  holds  the  standard  of  the 
High  School  upon  a  very  much  higher  plane  than  hereto- 
fore. It  is  not  improbable  that  the  same  rule  will  be  strictly 
adhered  to  the  coming  year,  and  that  all  scholars  of  our  town 
who  enter  our  High  School  will  be  required  to  either  obtain 
a  Grammar  School  diploma  based  upon  an  average  of  75 
per  cent,  or  to  obtain  the  same  average  upon  an  examination 
to  be  held  in  August. 

MILITARY    DRILL. 

During  the  year  it  was  voted  to  grant  the  petition  of  the 
boys  of  the  High  School  asking  for  a  military  drill.  The 
committee  are  heartily  in  accord  with  this  movement  of  the 
lads  of  the  school.  In  September,  Mr.  Freeman  took  the 
matter  of  the  organization  and  drill  in  charge.  Since  then 
the  exercise  has  been  constant  and  well  sustained  by  the 
pupils — in  fact  it  is  now  substantially  a  part  of  the  course 
in  the  High  School.  Many  of  the  cities  and  larger  towns 
make  this  a  feature  of  their  course,  and  the  enthusiasm  with 
which  our  school  has  taken  hold  of  this  matter  shows  that 
the  boys  of  Hyde  Park  are  not  to  be  outdone  in  a  matter  of 
this  kind.  Two  companies  of  about  thirty-five  each  are  or- 
ganized and  are  now  ready  for  arms.  The  expense  of  prop- 
erly arming  aucl  equipping  the  lads  has  been  quite  an  ob- 
stacle for  the  committee  to  overcome.  We  have,  however, 
procured    equipments    for  one  company   by   appropriating 


134 

about  $150  of  the  Mass.  school  fund  to  that  purpose, 
and  shall  ask  our  citizens  at  the  appropriation  meet- 
ing in  March  for  the  funds  to  equip  the  other  company. 
We  believe  that  our  citizens  will  cheerfully  give  these  lads 
this  money  to  enable  them  to  perfect  themselves  in  this  drill 
and  to  some  extent  acquaint  them  with  a  science  which  in  a 
free  country  like  ours  may  be  useful  in  defence  of  their  lib- 
erties and  their  homes.  Aside  from  these  considerations 
we  consider  the  drill  of  great  benefit  merely  in  the  direc- 
tion of  physical  culture  and  development. 

PHYSICAL    CULTURE. 

A  sub-committee  has  been  appointed  to  have  the  subject 
of  the  Ling  System  of  light  gymnastics  properly  brought  to 
the  attention  of  our  teachers  and  citizens,  with  a  view  to 
making  it  a  part  of  the  work  of  our  school  course.  A  lec- 
ture upon  this,  with  illustrations  of  the  movements,  has 
been  given,  which  the  public  largely  attended.  The 
teachers  of  some  of  our  schools  are  preparing  themselves 
to  instruct  this  system  and  to  a  limited  extent  it  is  being 
used  experimentally  in  the  schools.  The  subject  is  of 
much  importance,  and  is  now  under  wide  discussion  among 
educators. 

ACCOMMODATION. 

The  Greenwood  building  is  now  overcrowded,  and  some 
step  for  its  relief  will  soon  become  imperative.  In- 
creased accommodations  may  be  necessary,  or  it  may  be 
possible  by  a  change  of  district  lines  to  send  a  portion  of 
the  scholars  now  in  the  Greenwood  district  to  the  Grew 
School  and  a  portion  of  the  Grew  scholars  to  the  Damon 
School,  where  we  now  have  several  vacant  rooms.  Should 
this  be  done  we  should  recommend  some  action  by  the  town 
to  render  the  approach  to  the  Damon  School  across  Mother 
Brook  safe  for  the  use  of  the  children.     Unless  some  such 


135 

action  was  taken,  the  Board  would  hesitate  about  making 
the  change  of  district  line  suggested.  A  conference  with 
the  Selectmen  may  enable  us  to  come  before  the  citizens  in 
March  with  some  recommendation  upon  this  matter. 

The  High  School  building,  although  but  recently  enlarged, 
is  now  fully  occupied.  We  have  the  largest  High  School  in 
this  county,  and  if  it  continues  to  prosper  it  will  be  but  ;i 
year  or  two  before  the  demand  for  a  new  and  larger  build- 
ing must  be  met. 

It  may  not  be  out  of  place  here  to  refer  to  the  matter  of 
the  purchase  of  the  land  just  in  the  rear  of  the  present  High 
School  building,  owned  by  Mr.  David  Perkins,  which  the 
School  Committee  was  authorized  by  vote  of  the  town  to 
purchase  at  a  price  not  to  exceed  12  1-2  cento  per  foot. 
A  sub-committee  was  appointed  to  negotiate  with  the  owner 
for  this  land ;  that  committee  waited  upon  Mr.  Perkins, 
who  then  absolutely  refused  to  fix  any  price  for  the  'and  or 
to  sell  it  upon  any  terms  ;  he  did  not  consider  the  price  in- 
adequate but  simply  declined  to  sell  it.  Ail  that" now  re- 
mains is  for  the  town  to  proceed  under  the  Statutes  and  take 
the  land  for  the  use  of  schools  when  it  shall  be  thought  desir- 
able to  secure  it. 

CONCLUSION. 

We  at  times  hear  criticisms  that  our  schools  cost  too 
much  ;  that  they  might  be  carried  on  for  less  money,  and  at 
times  statements  appear  claiming  to  show  extravagance  in 
school  management,  but  we  believe  many  of  these  are  found- 
ed upon  insufficient  or  inaccurate  information,  or  a  failure  to 
understand  what  the  citizens  of  the  town  require  for  their 
children  in  the  public  schools.  If  we  understand  the  tem- 
per of  the  people  of  Hyde  Park,  they  will  not  be  content 
with  over-crowded  rooms  or  cheap,  poorly  paid  instructors, 
nor  will  they  submit  to  cold  and  poorly  cared  for  school- 
rooms.    When  it  is  said  our  schools  can  be  carried  on  for 


136 

much  less  money,  we  can  admit  that  they  could,  but  when  it  is 
said  that  our  schools  can  be  carried  on  and  kept  to  the  re- 
quired standard  in  all  particulars  for  much  less  money  the 
statement  is  not  justified.  The  children  are  placed  in  a 
measure  under  our  care  for  a  number  of  years,  and  not  only  is 
their  mental  training  to  be  cared  for,  but  the}"  are  to  be  physi- 
cally protected,  that  when  their  term  in  the  public  school  is 
ended  they  m;iy  come  out.  not  broken  in  health  but  vigor- 
ous, well-developed  boys  and  girls,  free  from  the  effects  of 
over-crowded  and  filthy  rooms,  or  the  dangers  consequent 
upon  the  use  of  filthy  books.  Everything  about  the  rooms 
and  building  must  be  clean  ;  the  buildings  must  be  warm 
and  well  lighted  ;  the  text  books  must  not  be  used  when 
they  appear  in  an  unhealthy  condition.  All  of  these  mat- 
ters are  jealously  watched  by  careful  and  anxious  parents, 
and  are  always  a  source  of  care  for  the  committee  and  of  ex- 
pense to  the  town.  As  a  general  proposition,  we  believe  no 
money  paid  by  the  taxpayers  is  applied  to  better  purpose 
than  that  which  they  vote  for  the  education  of  their  children. 

Hyde  Park,  with  all  of  its  improvements  in  other  depart- 
ments, has  always  stood  loyally  by  its  public  schools  and 
has  cheerfully  voted  whatever  sums  have  seemed  necessary 
to  provide  its  children  with  comfortable  school  rooms,  good 
instructors,  and  whatever  else  seems  necessary  for  a  good 
school  system. 

It  has  been  the  work  of  the  committee  to  carefully  expend 
this  money  and  to  see  that  the  wishes  of  the  town  in  these 
matters  were  met  as  far  as  possible.  There  has  been  no 
dissensions  in  the  committee  in  the  work,  and  the  teachers 
have  faithfully  tried  to  second  all  of  our  efforts  to  give  to  the 
children  of  the  town  all  the  advantages  and  benefits  possible 
from  the  use  of  the  funds  placed  at  our  disposal. 

We  have  tried  to  have  the  work  as  thorough  as  possible 
in  all  particulars,  but  it  must  ever  be  borne  in  mind  that  the 


137 

requirements  of  the  Statutes  are  many,  the  children  young 
and  the  school  course  short.  It  is  possible  that  it  is  too  much 
to  expect  of  a  child  of  thirteen  years,  the  supposed  age  of 
the  Grammar  graduate,  that  he  should  be  fully  fitted  for  the 
counting  room,  or  in  fact  any  general  business,  without  fur- 
ther training. 

The  High  School  is  supposed  to  graduate  scholars  at  the 
age  of  seventeen  years,  and  gives  better  but  not  complete 
business  training.  The  most  that  the  schools  claim  to  do  is 
to  give  the  children  sufficient  character,  habits  of  study  and 
mental  strength  upon  and  with  which  they  may  build  as 
their  future  life  work  may  require.  They  cannot  do  more 
and  should  not  do  less. 

In  closing  we  cheerfully  acknowledge  our  obligations  to 
citizens  and  teachers  for  their  support  and  co-operation  dur- 
ing the  year,  and  we  hope  that  the  future  of  the  children 
may  be  such  that  the  work  shall  bear  good  fruit.

SUB-COMMITTEE   REPORTS. 


HIGH    SCHOOL. 


The  High  School  continued  until  the  close  of  last  year,  in 
June,  under  the  same  teachers  as  reported  last  year ;  but 
owing  to  the  resignations  of  Miss  Morse  and  Mr.  Eldridge 
during  the  summer  vacation,  vacancies  were  created  which 
the  Committee  filled  by  the  appointment  ol  Miss  Anna  VV. 
Edwards  and  Mr.  Geo.  F.  Freeman  in  season  for  the  begin- 
ning of  the  year  in  September.  Both  of  these  teachers  are 
college  graduates  with  ample  acquirements.  There  is  in- 
creased interest  under  their  instruction,  and  the  committee 
look  for  the  most  gratifying  results  in  their  departments. 
The  school  generally,  under  Mr.  Hill's  management,  has 
maintained  its  reputation  for  scholarship,  and  the  different 
departments  have  been  characterized  by  progress  and 
efficiency  not  exceeded  probably  in  any  period  of  its  history. 

The  whole  number  of  scholars  at  present  in  the  school  is 
161,  and  they  are  classed  as  follows: 

First  class,  ly 

Second  class,  24 

Third  class,  *  y0*P>  g  5  r 

Fourth  class,  £  ye*!'s-  f6  53 

Special  courses,  13 — 161 

The  entering  class  at  the  beginning  of  the  year  in  Septem- 
ber numbered  seventy.  The  growth  of  the  school  is  gradual 
but  steady,  and  will  no  doubt  continue  so. 

It  is  the  effort  of  the  Committee  to  lengthen  and  perfect 
the  scientific  branch  of  the  curriculum  in  order  to  afford  a 
higher  education  in  this  direction  to  all  who  enter  its  classes. 


139 

During  the  past  year  the  Committee  have  used  such  portions 
of  the  appropriation  for  a  laboratory  as  have  been  needed. 
Such  apparatus  as  we  have  has  been  well  selected,  and  we 
expect  during  the  coming  year  to  put  before  the  pupils  ample 
facilities  for  the  prosecution  of  study  in  each  of  the  sciences. 
The  town  has  much  reason  to  be  proud  of  the  classical  in- 
struction given  in  this  school.  There  is  no  reason  why  its 
scientific  results  should  not  be  made  equally  creditable. 

Physical  training  has  been  given  special  attention  this 
year,  and  both  girls  and  boys  take  hold  of  it  with  interest. 
The  lack  of  sufficient  room  in  the  building  will  prevent  the 
carrying  out  of  the  girls'  exercises  beyond  a  more  or  less  light 
form  of  calisthenics.  Any  freedom  of  movement  is  out  of  the 
question  for  lack  of  a  suitable  hall.  The  military  drill  for  the 
boys  is  not  merely  a  drill  or  show,  but  aims  at  a  better 
physical  development  and  muscular  action.  It  is  deservedly 
popular  with  them,  and  the  corps  has  attained  a  good  degree 
of  efficiency  under  the  instruction  of  Mr.  Freeman. 

We  cordially  invite  parents  and  citizens  to  visit  the  school 
and  inspect  its  work  and  aims.  We  hope  to  so  equip  the 
pupils  that  when  they  have  completed  their  studies  they  may 
enter  upon  higher  courses,  or  business,  as  their  maturer  judg- 
ment may  dictate,  with  full  assurance  that  their  time  has 
been  profitably  employed,  whichever  course  they  may  have 
taken.

GREW     SCHOOL. 

The  following  changes  in  instructors  have  taken  place  in 
this  school  during  the  year.  Miss  Isabella  P.  Noble,  who 
had  been  serving  very  acceptably  as  Master's  assistant,  was 
obliged  to  sever  her  connection  with  the  school  and  return 
to  her  home  in  Michigan.  It  was  considered  expedient  to 
fill  the  vacancy  thus  made  by  promoting  Miss  Mary  A. 
Winslow  from  the  sixth  class,  where  she  had  long  done  most 
efficient  service.  Miss  Margaret  A.  Hanlon,  a  very  strong 
and  reliable  teacher,  was  placed  in  charge  of  the  entire  sixth 
class.  Miss  Margaret  E.  Bertram,  another  of  our  most 
capable  teachers,  in  charge  of  the  seventh,  and  Miss  Mary  D. 
Pollard,  who  had  made  a  successful  year  in  the  Damon 
School,  was  placed  over  one  division  of  the  eighth  class.  All 
these  changes  took  place  at  the  beginning  of  the  Fall  term, 
and  have  resulted  very  satisfactorily.  These  classes,  as  well 
as  the  others  in  the  building,  are  in  good  condition  as  re- 
spects proficiency  and  deportment.  The  number  of  scholars 
attending  this  school  is  steadily  increasing,  but  the  grading 
and  arrangement  of  classes  are  the  best  for  many  vears. 

During  the  year  a  tower  enclosing  stairs,  providing  a  means 
of  descent  from  each  story  to  the  ground,  was  erected  upon 
the  westerly  side  of  the  building,  in  compliance  with  the 
demands  of  the  State  Inspector.  This  was  done  by  a  com- 
mittee appointed  by  the  town  for  that  purpose.  This  work 
has  caused  changes  in  other  parts  of  the  building  and  grounds 
which  will  call  for  remedying,  at  some  cost,  in  the  future 
Considerable  water  backs  up  from  the  gutters  and  flows  into 
the  house,  and  new  concreting  in  the  yard  near  the  tower 
will  be  needed.  New  chairs  and  desks  were  finished  in  one 
class  room  during  the  summer  vacation,  some  painting  and 
repairs  done  in  the  interior  of  the  building  and  about  the 
out-houses,  and  an  unused  room  near  the  hall  fitted  up  to 
serve  as  a  place  where  the  teachers  can  meet  for  purposes 
connected  with  their  duties,   a  thing   which  we  understand 


141 

that  they  decidedly  appreciate  and  which  we  would  recom- 
mend for  the  other  buildings.  It  is  the  intention  of  the  com- 
mittee to  substitute  electric  gongs  and  bells  in  place  of  the 
much-worn  and  nearly  useless  apparatus  now  used  for  direct- 
ing the  movements  of  the  school.  We  call  attention 
to  some  matters  that  should  be  considered  when  making 
up  estimates  for  the  next  school  appropriation.  The  walls  of 
the  rooms  should  be  cleaned  and  tinted,  not  only  for  the  sake 
of  appearance  but  of  cleanliness.  Reference  books,  such  as 
encyclcepedias,  histories,  etc.,  are  needed,  that  the  children 
may  learn  how  to  properly  use  such  books  to  gather  informa- 
tion and  to  supplement  the  matter  in  their  text-books.  The 
school  building  would  be  benefited  and  improved  by  painting 
on  the  outside.  The  question  of  heating  has  reached  the 
point  where  it  must  be  intelligently  treated.  Three  of  the 
furnaces  are  now  so  badly  used  up  as  to  be  unfit  to  repair. 
The  others  are  more  or  less  defective.  Shall  new  ones  be 
substituted  to  partially  warm  the  building  and  continue  the 
dust  and  gas  which  frequently  invade  the  class  room,  or  shall 
a  comprehensive  plan  of  heating  by  better  methods,  such  as 
steam,  or  hot  water,  be  adopted  ?  Our  recommendation  is  un- 
qualifiedly in  favor  of  the  latter  alternative.  If  this  is  done 
we  further  recommend  that  the  basement  be  fitted  up  for  use 
as  a  play  room  in  wet  and  cold  weather.  The  Grew  school 
yard  is  a  very  bleak  place  in  winter,  and  children  wisely  shrink 
from  using  it  at  recess  time  and  between  sessions.  The  ceil- 
ing of  the  basement  should  also  be  rough  plastered  to  prevent 
dust  and  odors  from  arising  into  the  class-rooms  and  corridors.

GREENWOOD    SCHOOL. 


The  year  has  been  one  of  steady  growth,  unmarked  by  any 
special  features  calling  for  extended  notice  in  this  report. 

The  school  has  suffered  somewhat  from  changes  which 
have  occurred  in  its  corps  of  teachers  during  the  past  year. 
Miss  Adelaide  L.  Dodge  resigned  her  position  as  teacher  of 
the  seventh  class  at  the  close  ol  the  school  year  in  June  after 
six  years  of  faithful  service.  Promotions  and  changes  were 
made  among  the  remaining  teachers  in  such  a  way  as  to 
leave  a  vacancy  in  the  eleventh  class.  Miss  Mary  D.  Pollard 
was  transferred  from  the  twelfth  class  in  the  Damon  School 
to  fill  this  vacancy,  but  early  in  the  fall  term  was  again  pro- 
moted, and  transferred  to  the  Grew  School.  Miss  Rose  M. 
Tarbox,  formerly  of  Farmington,  Maine,  assumed  the  position 
for  the  balance  of  the  fall  term,  remaining  in  charge  of  this 
class  until  the  Christmas  vacation,  when  she  resigned. 
Since  that  time  the  class  has  been  in  charge  of  Miss  Eliza- 
beth B.  Freeman,  who  is  doing  good  work  and  possesses  the 
qualities  necessary  to  make  a  successful  teacher. 

Early  in  November  Mrs.  Josie  T.  Reid,  who  has  filled  the 
position  of  Master's  assistant  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Mas- 
ter and  Committee,  received  a  better  offer  from  Yonkers, 
N.  Y.,  and  resigned  her  position  here  to  accept  the  same. 
Up  to  this  time  no  one  has  been  appointed  to  the  position. 
Mr.  Thompson  has  been  assisted  by  Miss  Mary  L.  Peirce, 
who  is  acting  as  a  substitute. 

The  Committee  have  found  it  hard  to  find  such  a  teacher 
as  we  think  the  place  demands,  for  the  price  we  pay.  We 
expect,  however,  that  the  place  will  soon  be  permanently 
filled. 

We  believe  that  the  appointment  of  Master's  assistant  was 
a  wise  move,  and  is  already  bearing  fruit  in  better  organiza- 
tion and  higher  standard  of  scholarship. 

Through  the  generosity  of  a  number  of  public  spirited  citi- 
zens of  the  district,  the  school   was  presented  with  a  hand- 


143 

some  flag,  which  was  thrown  to  the  breeze  on  the  21st  day 
of  February,  with  exercises  appropriate  to  the  day  and  the 
occasion. 

In  the  line  of  improvements  about  the  grounds  and  build- 
ing concrete  walks  and  a  forming  platform  have  been  laid  in 
the  yard,  and  the  steam  heating  system  has  been  extended 
into  the  main  hall,  which  has  heretofore  been  useless  except 
during  the  summer  months.  tThe  expense  of  these  improve- 
ments was  about  $325. 

In  the  report  of  last  year  your  Committee  called  attention 
to  the  rapid  growth  of  this  section  of  the  town,  and  gave  ex- 
pression to  the  thought  that  additional  school  accommoda- 
tions would  be  required  at  no  distant  day.  The  need  in 
this  direction  is  more  apparent  to-day  than  it  was  then.  A 
year  ago  the  membership  was  reported  as  344.  The  average 
membership  for  the  last  term  has  been  384,  an  increase  of 
40.  Some  of  the  rooms  are  crowded,  particularly  the  ninth 
grade  under  the  care  of  Miss  Woods,  which  has  58  scholars. 
A  glance  at  the  statistics  of  the  school  as  presented  else- 
where in  this  report,  will  show  the  condition  of  the  various 
rooms.  The  percentage  of  attendance  is  worthy  of  note, 
being  93  per  cent,  of  the  average  membership.  If  the  usual 
increase  attendant  upon  the  spring  and  summer  terms  is 
maintained,  it  is  probable  that  the  question  will  demand  a 
settlement  with  the  beginning  of  another  school  year  in  Sep- 
tember. The  small  hall  which  is  unoccupied  can  be  con- 
verted into  a  class  room  at  the  mere  outlay  incident  upon 
furnishing  ;  and  by  putting  in  a  partition,  it  can  be  made  into 
two  class  rooms.  This  will  be  necessary  in  the  near  future. 
A  second  plan  would  be  to  change  the  district  lines,  throw- 
ing a  part  of  the  territory  now  embraced  in  the  Greenwood 
district  into  the  Grew.  But  in  the  opinion  of  your  Com- 
mittee either  plan  will  afford  only  a  temporary  relief.  The 
growth  of  the  town  will  sooner  or  later  necessitate  the  erec- 
tion of  a  Grammar  School  building  somewhere  in  the  vicinity 


144 

of  the  present  High  School  building,  as  set  forth  in  the  plan 
proposed  by  the  School  Committee  two  years  ago.  The 
town  endorsed  that  plan,  and  voted  to  purchase  the  land  ad- 
jacent to  the  High  School  grounds,  for  that  purpose,  but  the 
Committee  have  been  unable  to  effect  the  purchase.  Along 
this  line,  in  the  opinion  of  your  Committee,  the  satisfactory 
solution  of  the  question  lies  :  any  of  the  other  plans  proposed 
will,  in  our  opinion,  afford  only  temporary  relief,  as,  if  the 
town  continues  to  grow  hi  its  outskirts  as  it  has  the  past  two 
years,  the  erection  of  another  school  building  somewhere 
near  the  centre  will  be  a  necessity,  and  is  only  a  question  of 
time,  and  that  time  not  far  distant.

BUTLER     SCHOOL. 

The  two  primary  classes  of  the  Butler  school  have  re- 
mained under  the  care  of  the  same  teacher  as  last  year, 
Miss  Grace  B.  Gidney.  She  has  done  faithful  work,  and 
her  pupils  have  made  commendable  progress. 

Few  repairs  have  been  necessary  during  the  year.  A 
soapstone  sink,  a  much  needed  convenience,  was  placed  in 
the  building  in  the  summer,  also  window  boards  on  several 
of  the  windows  for  better  ventilation.  The  Committee 
would  recommend  the  painting  of  the  building  both  outside 
and  inside  during  the  coming  summer.

FAIHMOUNT    SCHOOL. 

After  careful  inquiry  in  regard  to  the  health  of  Mr. 
Howard,  the  Committee  unanimously  decided  that  the  best 
interests  of  the  school  demanded  the  election  of  Mr.  E.  W. 
Cross  to  the    position  of  principal. 

From  various  causes  several  changes  have  been  made  in 
the  teaching  force.  Miss  H.  N.  Sands  held  the  position  of 
Master's  assistant  until  the  Summer  vacation.  Mrs.  Mary  C. 
Howard  was  then  transferred  from  the  sixth  class  to  the  fifth, 
and  has  since  occupied  this  position  to  the  general  satisfac- 
tion of  all  concerned.  Transfers  of  teachers  were  made  from 
the  seventh  to  the  sixth  class,  from  the  eighth  to  the  seventh, 
and  from  the  ninth  to  the  eighth  class,  leaving  a  vacancy  to 
be  filled  in  the  ninth  grade.  Mrs.  Josephine  P.  Poole,  a 
lady  who  had  passed  a  good  examination,  and  presented 
excellent  testimonials  of  fitness  and  experience,  was  chosen 
to  this  place,  and  has  well  sustained  her  previous  good 
reputation.  From  the  twelfth  class  Miss  Abbie  M.  Hood 
was  induced  to  go  to  a  school  in  Waltham  by  an  offer  of 
larger  pay   than   our  appropriation    would  allow,  and  the 


146 

place  has  been  filled  very  satisfactorily  by  the  election  of 
Mrs.  Helen  O.  Thompson,  formerly  a  much  prized  teacher 
in  the   school,   known  then  as  Miss  Oliver. 

In  all  the  grades,  from  principal  downward,  the  teachers 
are  now  working  heartily,  pleasantly  and  successfully,  and 
we  anticipate  few,  if  any,  changes  in  the  near  future. 

Mr.  Cross  deserves  special  commendation  for  his  care  of 
the  building,  and  all  its  fixtures  and  appurtenances,  and 
for  his  persistent  effort  to  secure  gentlemanly  bearing  and 
conduct  of  pupils  in  the  streets  aiid  school  yard  as  well  as 
in  the  school  rooms  ;  while  at  the  same  time  his  literary 
duties  have  been  conscientiously  and  carefully  performed. 

Mrs.  D.  A.  Preston  has  given  lessons  in  sewing  weekly, 
in  the  eighth  and  ninth  classes,  and  accomplished  all  pos- 
sible in  the  time  allowed.

DAMON    SCHOOL. 


The  school  has  continued  under  the  charge  of  Mr.  Manter, 
whose  services  have  been  entirely  satisfactory  to  the  Com- 
mittee. In  September  Miss  Pollard  was  transferred  by  vote 
of  the  committee  to  the  Greenwood  School,  and  Miss  Dora 
F.  Hastings  was  employed  to  fill  the  vacancy. 

Miss  Hastings  is  a  graduate  of  our  own  High  School  and 
has  had  several  years  of  experience  elsewhere  as  a  teacher. 
She  is  giving  good  satisfaction. 

No  other  change  of  teachers  has  occurred.  No  scholars 
took  the  diploma  from  this  school  last  year  for  the  reason 
that  during  the  spring  term  the  graduating  class  had  but  one 
pupil,  Master  George  Lynch,  who,  at  his  own  request,  was 
transferred  to  the  Fairmount  School,  where  he  graduated 
-with  a  rank  very  complimentary  to  this  school.     The  trans- 


147 

fer  of  Master  Lynch  enabled  the  Master  to  give  his  whole 
time  to  the  sixth  and  seventh  grades-  The  present  year  we 
hope  will  find  us  with  a  good  class  for  graduation. 

The  average  attendance  is  about  as  last  year  (no)  but  it 
seems  impossible,  if  any  regard  is  had  to  grades  or  the  wel- 
fare of  the  scholars,  to  further  reduce  the  corps  of  teachers. 
During  the  summer  vacation  the  town  water  was  introduced 
into  the  building  and  the  wisdom  of  the  action  is  apparent. 
The  building  is  now  supplied  with  hose  attachments  upon 
two  floors,  sufficient  for  use  in  case  of  fire.  As  four  rooms 
of  the  building  are  unused  by  the  school,  some  evil  disposed 
persons  took  delight  in  breaking  the  windows.  In  view  of 
this  the  committee  provided  shutters  for  the  windows  of 
these  rooms,  some  of  which  are  already  in  position  and  the 
remainder  will  be  put  in  use  during  the  long  vacation. 

The  work  of  the  school  has  progressed  very  smoothly  and 
we  have  every  reason  to  believe  with  great  profit  to  the  chil- 
dren of  the  school.

EVENING    SCHOOLS. 

These  schools  were  continued  from  the  date  of  last  year's 
report  to  March  18th,  the  Centre  school  under  Mr.  Emer- 
son Rice  as  principal,  with  Miss  M.  E.  Bertram  as  assistant,, 
and  the  Readville  school  under  Mr.  G.  F.  Eldridge  as 
principal,  with  Mrs.  A.  M.  Merrill  as  assistant.  They 
were  reopened  December  1st,  the  Centre  school  with  Mr- 
Rice  as  principal,  and  Miss  Cherrington  as  assistant ;  and1 
the  Readville  school  with  Mr.  G.  F.  Freeman  as  principal,, 
and  Mr.  E.  St.  C.  Fellows  as  assistant. 

In  these  schools  respectively  the  whole  number  of  scholars 
has  been  60  and  57,  and  the  average    attendance*  has;  been. 


148 

18  and  21.  These  numbers  are  small  as  compared  with 
previous  years,  and  it  is  to  be  regretted  that  more  of  our 
younger  people  do  not  avail  themselves  of  the  opportunity 
generously  given  by  the  town  to  remedy  the  defects  in  their 
education.  Still  the  figures  above  given  represent  those 
who  really  mean  business  in  attending  these  schools,  that 
element  which  has  gone  for  a  few  nights  only  for  the  fun  of 
it  having  been  less  troublesome  than  formerly.  It  has  been 
practically  impossible  to  grade  the  schools  on  account  of  the 
necessarily  irregular  attendance,  and  the  work  is  chiefly 
individual  and  in  simple  branches.  The  results  on  the 
whole,  considering  the  time  and  circumstances,  have  been 
all  that  could  fairly  be  expected.

EVENING    DRAWING    SCHOOL. 

This  school  which  had  heretofore  for  some  years  been 
•under  the  able  and  satisfactory  direction  of  Mr.  H.  W. 
Killam,  was  obliged  to  dispense  with  his  valuable  services 
at  the  opening  of  the  winter  term  on  account  of  his  removal 
from  town.  Mr.  Frank  W.  Howard  was  selected  as 
instructor,  and  the  school  has  been  very  ably  managed  by 
him.     His  report  is  herewith  submitted. 

EDMUND  DAVIS, 
E.  S.  HATHAWAY, 
Committee  on  Evening  Drawing  School. 

Edmund  Davis,  Esq.,  Chairman  Committee, 
Dear  Sir  : 

I  submit  the  following  report  of  the  work  of  the  evening 
drawing  school  up  to  Feb.  1st,  1891. 

The  school  opened  December  1st  with  forty-one  students, 


149 

most  of  whom  are  employed  in  the  machine  shops  or  by  the 
builders  in  the  town.  The  school  is  divided  into  three 
classes  :  an  elementary  class,  which  meets  at  7.30  p.m.  on 
Wednesday,  a  class  in  machine  and  another  in  architectural 
drawing.  The  last  two  classes  meet  on  Mondays  and 
Fridays  at  the  same  hour. 

The  elementary  class  comprises  twenty-nine  of  the 
students,  those  who  have  had  little  experience  in  mechanical 
drawing;  The  work  of  this  class  includes  geometrical  con- 
structions,  practice  in  inking,  orthographic  projections  and 
development  of  surfaces.  The  work  of  the  class  in  machine 
drawing  comprises  the  study  of  cams,  screws  and  general 
details  of  machine  construction.  The  architectural  class 
are  studying  isometric  perspective,  details  of  construction 
such  as  the  bonding  of  brickwork  and  details  of  window 
frames.  It  is  now  making  a  complete  set  of  plans  for  a 
building. 

In  all  the  work  of  the  school  the  most  practical  methods 
have  been  adopted.  The  aim  has  been  to  make  the  school 
as  much  as  possible  like  a  practical  draughting  room. 
Particular  attention  is  paid  to  the  reading  of  drawings. 

The  school  has  been  well  attended  and  the  interest  and 
diligence  shown  by  the  students  is  very  gratifying. 

The  average  attendance  is  fifteen.  A  careful  inspection 
of  the  work  by  those  interested  is  invited. 

FRANK  W.  HOWARD, 

Instructor. 

Jan.  31,  1891. 


INDUSTRIAL    SCHOOL. 

The  introduction  of  lessons  in  sewing  as  a  part  of  the 
regular  school  work,  and  the  complete  occupancy  of  eveiy 
available  moment  during  term  time  by  the  present  require- 
ments, decided  your  Committee  to  confine  the  operation  of 


150 

the  Industrial  school  instruction  to  the  long  summer  vaca- 
tion. Mrs.  W.  A.  Boardman  was  re-engaged  to  take  charge 
of  the  sewing  school,  and  Mr.  J.  E.  Webb,  of  the  school  of 
carpentry.  Both  schools  were  well  conducted  and  attended 
by  a  fair  number  of  pupils,  who  made  good  progress  in  the 
branches  taught. 

We  ask  again  to  call  attention  to  the  fact  that  towns  and 
cities  occupying  the  front  rank  in  educational  matters,  and 
to  which  Hyde  Park  may  safely  look  for  example  and  leader- 
ship, are  giving  large  and  increasing  attention  to  industrial 
training.
