SELECTMEN'S    REPORT 


Fellow  Citizens  of  Hyde  Paek  : 

Your  Board  of  Selectmen  has  completed  its  labors  in  con- 
nection with  the  administration  of  town  affairs  for  the  past 
year,  and  herewith  presents  for  your  consideration  the  usual 
annual  report. 

In  some  respects  the  past  year  has  been  a  peculiar  one  in 
regard  to  public  work.  Anticipating  as  we  have  the  advent 
of  sewerage  in  our  streets  at  an  early  date,  the  new  work 
undertaken  has  been  only  such  as  would  be  little  injured  by 
the  excavating  necessary  for  the  sewers. 

It  has  been  deemed  wiser  on  the  part  of  the  Board  to  give 
careful  attention  to  such  parts  of  the  work  on  streets  as 
would  yield  the  best  results  after  the  sewerage  committee 
has  finished  its  labors,  than  to  expend  money  in  large  per- 
manent improvements,  except  where  conditions  existed  ren- 
dering it  especially  desirable  or  necessary. 

We  believe  the  town  has  reason  to  take  pride  in  the  pos- 
session of  its  splendid  plant  for  providing  road  material,  and 
no  doubt  very  much  of  the  material  of  this  kind  will  be  re- 
quired in  sewer  construction.  No  better  plant  can  be  found 
anywhere  and  we  are  sure  the  investment  will  prove  a  de- 
cidedly profitable  one  for  the  town. 

The  Crusher  was  not  completed  read}^  fur  work  until  quite 
late  in  the  season,  but  sufficient  work  was  done  with  it  to 
abundantly  satisfy  the  Board  that  it  was  well  adapted  to  the 
needs  of  tli^^  town,  both  in  point  of  capacity  and  quality  of 
material  furnished.  This  latter  is  a  most  important  consid- 
eration for  without  it  no  really  good  road-work  can  be  done. 

In  this  connection  we  cannot  forbear  to  speak  of  one  mat- 
ter which  has  already  been  brought  to  the  attention  of  the 


6 

town  in  other  ways,  aud  that  is  the  prune  importance  of 
careful  attention  to  newly  macadamized  streets. 

A  small  amount  of  careful  and  judicious  work  with  the 
proper  material  on  the  surfaces  of  such  roadways  will  keep 
them  in  perfect  condition,  while  neglect  even  for  a 
few  years  tends  to  ruin  and  waste.  Once  the  streets 
throughout  the  town  are  thoroughly  and  scientifically  con- 
structed on  this  plan,  their  care  and  maintenance  in  perfect 
condition  can  be  accomplished  with  a  very  small  yearly  cost. 
In  fact,  much  less  than  with  any  other  form  of  road  construc- 
tion such  as  would  be  adapted  to  our  town. 

We  recognize  that  before  many  years  it  will  be  desirable 
to  pave  Everett  Square  and  the  streets  in  the  immediate 
vicinity  where  the  teaming  is  so  excessive  that  macadam 
construction  is  not  desirable. 

The  Board  has  pursued  the  policy  followed  by  the  Select- 
men in  previous  years  in  regard  to  the  construction  of  side- 
walks, and  upon  petition  by  abutters  desiring  the  construc- 
tion of  concrete  walks  with  edge  stone,  have  constructed 
such  walks  in  several  parts  of  the  town,  the  largest  piece  of 
work  of  this  character  being  on  Hyde  Park  Avenue,  and 
the  work  in  this  locality  has  tended  greatly  to  improve  the 
appearance  of  the  street  which  for  many  years  has  been 
much  desired,  as  this  Avenue  is  the  main,  thoroughfare  to 
Boston. 

A  portion  of  the  sidewalk  previously  laid  on  this  Avenue 
in  the  Hazelwood  district  has  been  lowered  in  some  places 
to  meet  the  new  grade  of  the  street,  and  we  believe  that  this 
change  will  give  universal  satisfaction. 

A  section  of  sidewalk  on  East  River  Street,  beginning  at 
the  corner  of  Walter  Street,  has  for  the  past  two  years  been 
a  source  of  considerable  annoyance,  and  this  has  been 
thoroughly  remedied  by  the  raising  of  the  sidewalk  and  an 
adjustment  of  the  line  of  the  street  giving  a  proper  roadway 
and  preventing  an  overflow  of  water  upon  the  walk. 


Another  chapter  on  Metropolitan  Avenue  has  been  added 
to  the  history  of  that  street  and  "  the  end  is  not  yet."  It 
should  be  remembered  by  the  citizens  that  owing  to  the  pe- 
culiar manner  in  which  this  street  has  been  forced  to  the  at- 
tention of  the  town,  that  no  assessments  for  betterments  can 
be  made  upon  the  parties  receiving  the  most  benefit.  A 
new  decree  of  the  County  Commissioners  now  calls  for  ad- 
ditional improvements  on  the  street  never  heretofore  con- 
templated, and  we  are  free  to  say  that  we  question  the  wis- 
dom of  these  additional  improvements  upon  that  street  at 
this  particular  time.  A  very  large  amount  of  money  has 
been  expended  already  upon  that  avenue,  entirely  out  of 
proportion  to  the  direct  needs  of  the  community,  and  in  a 
measure  to  the  detriment  and  delay  of  equally,  if  not 
more  important,  work,  in  some  other  portions  of  the  town. 

Several  new  streets  have  been  added  to  the  town  during 
the  past  year  and  their  construction  accomplished  in  accord- 
ance with  the  original  plans.  Warren  Avenue  has  been 
built  in  a  substantial  manner,  the  steepness  of  the  grades 
rendering  additional  care  and  expense  necessary  to  provide 
for  surface  drainage  and  to  guard  against  the  destruction  of 
the  street  by  storms  and  freshets,  and  we  believe  the  plan  of 
construction  as  recommended  and  carried  out  will  prove  sat- 
isfactory. 

Highland  Street  from  Metropolitan  Avenue  has  beon 
thoroughly  constructed  and  we  believe  is  in  a  very  satisfac- 
tory condition. 

Regent  Street  and  Chesterfield  Street  have  also  been 
placed  in  as  gopd  condition  as  would  be  warranted  by  the 
small  amount  of  money  appropriated  to  these  streets. 

ACTIONS    AT    LAW. 

Actions  pending  against  the  Town  in  the  Superior  Court, 
Norfolk  County  : 

The  case  of  Lomelia  A.  Bickford,  Admrx.,  against  the- 


Town,  described  in  the  last  Annual  Report,  is  still  pending. 

On  the  13th  day  of  May,  1895,  Richard  Wood  of  this 
town  brought  an  action  returnable  to  the  Superior  Court  on 
the  first  Monday  of  July,  claiming  damages  in  his  wa^it  in 
the  sum  of  $800  for  an  alleged  injury  sustained  by  him  on 
the  22d  day  of  January  of  the  same  year,  from  an  alleged 
defect  on  Austin  Street  by  the  alleged  accumulation  of  snow 
and  ice  upon  the  sidewalk  in  front  of  premises  No.  11  and 
No.  13  on  that  street. 

The  action  was  upon  the  trial  list  at  the  January  Sitting 
of  the  Superior  Court  and  has  been  adjusted  for  the  sum  of 


Elizabeth  Winslow,  wife  of  Frank  L.  Winslow,  brought 
an  action  against  the  Town  on  the  23d  day  of  October, 
1895,  returnable  to  the  Superior  Court  for  this  County  on 
the  first  Monday  of  December,  in  which  she  set  her  damages 
in  the  sum  of  $2000  for  alleged  injuries  sustained  on  May 
20,  1895,  by  reason  of  being  thrown  out  of  her  carriage  on 
Water  Street  near  its  junction  with  Fairmount  Avenue,  in 
consequence,  as  she  alleges,  of  the  horse  she  was  driving 
takino;  frio-ht  at  the' steam  roller  then  beins^  in  use  on  Fair- 
mount  Avenue. 

•     This  action   is  dismissed  by  an  agreement  to  the  entry 
"Neither  Party." 

On  the  9th  day  of  September,  1895;  Tliomas  J.  Meighan, 
son  of  Thomas  Meighan  of  this  town,  brought  an  action  re- 
turnable to  the  Superior  Court  on  the  first  Monday  of  Nov- 
ember, in  which  he  set  liis  damages  at  $5000,  for  an  alleged 
injury  received  on  the  28th  day  of  December,  1894,  in  front 
ot  the  store  occupied  by  Frank  L.  Hodgdon  on  Everett 
Square,  from  an  alleged  defect  in  the  condition  of  the  side- 
walk at  that  point,  and  the  alleged  accumulation  of  snow 
and  ice  thereon. 

This  action  has  been  settled  by  the  agreement  to  pa}^  ^350.

FIRE    DEPARTMENT. 

The  Fire  Department  in  Hyde  Park  continues  to  be  main 
tained  witti  its  usual  efficiency,  and  we  commend  the  report 
of  the  engineers  to  your  careful  consideration.  The  removal 
of  the  old  lock-up  fi-om  the  basement  of  the  engine  house 
has  given  much  needed  additional  room  to  the  Department 
and  is  greatly  appreciated. 

The  very  satisfactory  contract  with  the  Water  Company 
for  fire  hydrants,  which  your  Board  has  had  the  pleasure  of 
consummating,  has  greatly  added  to  the  efficiency  of  the  De- 
partment by  the  increased  number  of  hydrants.  We  desire 
to  express  our  appreciation  of  the  very  generous  and  busi- 
ness-like way  in  which  the  Water  Company  have  met  your 
Board  in  the  matter  of  a  renewal  of  the  contract,  as  well  as 
in  the  carrying  out  of  the  provisions  of  that  agreement. 

Sixty-nine  of  the  seventy  new  hydrants  have  been  located 
and  set.  The  Board  purposely  reserved  one  hydrant  to  be 
located  in  case  some  especially  desirable  point  should  be 
found  to  exist  by  the  engineers,  where  a  hydrant  should  be 
located  and  which  possibly  might  have  been  overlooked  by 
the  Board  in  making  their  additional  locations. 

The  payment  for  hydrant  service  seems  to  be  appropri- 
ately provided  for  by  the  Corporation  and  National  Bank 
Tax  which  for  several  years  has  been  devoted  to  that  pur- 
pose,  and  we  recommend  that  the  same  appropriation  be 

made  for  the  ensuing  year. 

i 

POLICE. 

We  take  pleasure  in  calling  attention  to  the  report  of  the 
Police  Department,  and  we  believe  that  Mr.  McKay,  the 
efficient  Chief  of  the  Department,  is  entitled  to  the  gratitude 
of  the  citizens  for  the  very  satisfactor}^  manner  in  which  he 
has  administered  the  duties  devolving  upon  him.  No  one 
could  be  more  faithful  in  the  fulfillment  of  his  duties  than 
Mr.  McKay,  and  %\\q.  jyersonnel  oi  the  Department  has  felt 


10 

the  influence  of  his  dh-ection  and  leadership,  and  we  believe 
are  in  thorough  accord  and  are  doing  excellent  work. 

The  town  now  has  a  substantial  and  convenient  buildino^ 
for  lock-up  and  police  headquarters  which  has  gaeatly  added 
to  the  dignity  ®f  the  Departmen  tand  to  the  efficiency  of  its 
vs^ork,  and  furthermore  has  removed  the  stigma  from  the 
town  which  has  attached  to  it  in  former  years,  by  reason  o 
the  inadequate  accommodations  in  this  respect. 

APPROPRIATIONS. 

It  has  been  the  custom  for  several  years  for  the  retiring 
Board  to  include  in  its  report  recommendations  as  to  the  ap- 
propriations for  the  follovv^ing  year.  At  present,  however, 
in  view  of  the  uncertainty  as  to  the  action  of  the  town  in  re- 
gard to  sewerage,  the  Board  does  not  feel  justified  in  mark- 
ing out  a  line  of  action  in  advance  of  definite  knowledge, 
and  consequently  refrains  from  making  recommendations  re- 
garding work  upon  the  highways. 

It  is  probable  that  before  the  annual  appropriation  meet- 
ing shall  have  been  held  the  question  of  the  sewerage  will 
have  been  settled,  and  the  incoming  Board  can  then  arrange 
its  plans  in  regard  to  street  work  with  more  certainty  as  to 
its  proper  relation  to  work  on  the  sewers. 

In  conclusion,  we  take  pleasure  in  calling  attention  to  the 
fact  that  the  tax  rate  for  the  last  year  has  been  lower  than 
any  year  since  1878,  and  we  certainly  believe  that  the  con- 
dition of  Hyde  Park  in  regard  to  the  various  lines  touched 
upon  in  this  report,  compares  favorably  with  any  of  the 
surrounding  towns.        Very  respectfully  submitted,

THIRD     ANNUAL    REPORT     OF    THE     PARK 
COMMISSIONERS. 


1.  From  the  remarks  and  speeches  made  at  various 
times  during  the  year,  we  infer  that  many  citizens  are  in 
favor  of  small  local  parks.  If  any  land  is  secured  for  such 
purposes  at  low  rates,  it  will  be  necessary,  when  opportuni- 
ty offers,  to  act  promptly.  With  this  in  view,  we  recom- 
mend the  appropriation  of  $2,000  in  1896  for  park  purposes. 

2.  Your  Commissioners  deem  it  for  the  best  interests  of 
the  town  to  have  one  Commissioner  elected  each  year  for  a 
three  years'  term,  instead  of  three  Commissioners  for  a  one 
year  term.  Therefore  we  requested  that  a  proper  article 
be  inserted  in  the  town  warrant.  And  we  prepared,  and 
the  Secretary  offered  under  this  article,  the  following  mo- 
tion : 

Moved,  that  the  town  at  its  annual  election  in  1896,  elect  three 
Park  Commissioners,  one  for  one  year,  one  lor  two  j^ears,  and  one 
for  three  years ;  and  that  thereafter  at  each  anmial  election  the  town 
elect  one  Commissioner  for  the  term  of  three  years. 

This  motion  was  adopted.  We  are  of  the  opinion  that 
this  change  in  the  term  of  office  will  tend  to  a  conservative 
and  continuous  policy,  which  is  much  better  than  an  uncer- 
certain  and  shifting  one. 

3.  A  proposition  was  presented  to  the  Legislature  of 
1895  to  allow  the  Metropolitan  Commissioners  to  abandon, 
reconvey  or  sell  at  public  auction  or  otherwise,  any  park 
land,  by  consent  of  the  Governor  and  Council.  From  our 
experience  and  observation,  believing  that  local  boards 
were,  as  a  rule,  better  acquainted  with  the  exact  lines  and 
boundaries  of  parks  in  their  locality,  than  any  Metropolitan 


34 

Commission,  and  could  tlierefore  prevent  undesirable 
chano;es  in  lines  beino-  made  to  suit  the  ends  of  owners  on 
the  borders  of  parks,  we  drafted  and  proposed  an  amend- 
ment that  such  abandonment  or  resale  should  be  done  "  with 
the  concurrence  of  the  majority  of  the  Board  of  Park  Com- 
missioners, if  any,  of  the  city  or  town  in  which  the  property 
is  situated."  This  amendment  was  offered  by  our  Repre- 
sentative in  the  House,  and  was  adopted  and  is  now  a  part 
of  the  law. 

4.  Your  Commission,  in  the  performance  of  its  duties, 
requested  the  Selectmen  to  insert  the  following  article  in 
the  warrant  for  the  town  meeting  to  be  held  March  28, 
1895  : 

"  To  hear  and  act  on  a  report  of  the  Park  Commissioners  relating 
■to  land  in  the  vicinity  of  High  Rock,  including  a  portion  of  the  Sum- 
iiier  farm,  and  to  see  what  sum  of  money  the  town  will  appropriate 
ior  park  purposes,  and  to  determine  how  the  same  shall  be  raised." 

At  that  meeting  the  following  report  was  read  by  the 
Secretary  and  later  placed  on  tile  with  the  town  records  : 

To  THE  Citizens  of  Hyde  Park  : — Your  Park  Com- 
missioners deem  it  wise  to  ask  you  to  appropriate  twenty- 
one  thousand  dollars  to  purchase  about  thirty  acres  of  the 
Sumner  estate,  including  High  Rock,  and  also  a  piece  of 
laud  adjoining,  which  belongs  to  the  Real  Estate  &  Building 
Company.  The  agents  of  the  Sumner  estate  offer  the  thirty 
acres  at  seventeen  thousand  dollars,  and  the  Real  Estate  & 
Building  Company  offer  the  additional  land  at  one  cent  per 
foot.  In  1894  the  thirty  acres  was  assessed  with  other 
lands  in  the  same  estate  at  five  hundred  dollars  per  acre, 
making  a  gross  sum  of  fifteen  thousand  dollars  for  the  Park 
which  we  propose  to  take.  The  land  belonging  to  the 
Real  Estate  &  Building  Company  is  divided  into  lots,  but 
we  think  the  average  assessment  would  be  in  excess  of  the 
price  for  which  the  Company  offers  to  sell  it  to  the  town. 


35 

The  proposed  park  contains  an  excellent  athletic  field  and 
play  ground,  a  fine  natural  spring  of  water,  many  places 
suitable  for  picnics  or,  in  summer,  to  rest  in  the  cool  shade, 
and  presents  many  beautiful  views.  We  recommend  that 
the  money  be  raised  by  the  issuing  of  bonds  or  notes  of  the 
town,  payable  in  thirty  equal  annual  instalments.  In  our 
opinion  to  purchase  at  the  price  stated  will  prove  a  good 
investment  from  every  standpoint. 

It  was  then  moved  that  the  Treasurer  be  authorized  to 
borrow  $21,000  to  be  used  for  purchasing  land  in  the  vicin- 
ity of  High  Rock  for  Park  purposes,  and  for  improvements 
thereon,  and  to  give  the  notes  or  bonds  of  the  town  there- 
for ;  said  sum  to  be  paid  in  thirty  equal  annual  instalments, 
the  first  payment  to  become  due  in  1896. 

This  was  adopted  by  a  vote  of  394  in  the  afiirmative  and 
14  in  the  negative. 

The  town  treasurer,  in  the  usual  way,  solicited  proposals 
for  the  bonds  thus  authorized,  and  the  lowest  bid  was  ac- 
cepted. Some  questioned  the  legality  of  the  vote  while 
others  maintained  that  it  was  valid,  and  the  money  loaner 
requested  that  its  legality  be  put  beyond  question  by  an  act 
of  the  Legislature.  Certain  citizens  appeared  before  the 
Committee  of  the  Legislature  and  opposed  the  enabling  act ; 
some  on  the  £"round  that  this  small  sum  ought  to  be  raised 
in  ten  years  instead  of  thirty,  and  others  that  we  did  not 
need  the  park,  or  that  it  was  useless  or  expensive.  The 
Legislature  passed  the  following  act : 

Chap.  433.     an  act  to  authorize  the  town  of  hyde  pauk  to  incur 
indebtedness  for  park   purposes. 

Be  it  enacted,  etc.,  as  follows  : 

Section  1.  Tiie  town  of  Hyde  Park  for  the  purpose  of  purchasing 
land  in  the  vicinity  of  High  Rock  for  park  purposes  and  for  improve- 
ments thereon,  may  borrow  twenty-one  thousand  dollars,  and  may 
issiie  bonds  therelor  payable  in  thirty  equal  annual  instalments,  the 
first  instalment  to  become  due  upon  the  first  day  of  May  in  the  year 


36 

eighteen  hundred  and  ninety- six.  The  bonds  shall  be  dated  the  first 
day  of  May  in  the  year  eighteen  hundred  and  ninety-five,  shall  bear 
interest  at  the  rate  of  four  per  cent,  per  annum,  payable  semi-annu- 
ally on  the  first  days  of  November  and  May  of  each  year,  and  shall 
be  in  demoninations  of  five  hundred  and  one  hundred  dollars  each, 
but  the  provisions  of  chapter  twenty-nine  of  the  Public  Statutes  and 
acts  in  amendment  thereof  shall  otherwise  apply  to  such  indebted- 
ness. 

Section  2.  The  vote  of  the  town  of  Hyde  Park  passed  on  the 
twenty-eighth  daj'  of  March  in  the  year  eighteen  hundred  and  ninety- 
five,  authorizing  the  treasurer  of  said  town  to  borrow  twenty-one 
thousand  dollars  for  the  park  purposes  named  in  section  one  of  this 
act  is  hereby  confirmed  and  declared  legal  and  valid. 

Section  3.  This  act  shall  take  eflTect  upon  its  acceptance  by  a 
majority  vote  of  the  voters  of  said  town  present  and  voting  thereon 
at  a  legal  town  meeting  called  for  the  purpose  within  one  year  from 
its  passage. 

Approved  May  20,  1895. 

On  June  26,  1895,   a   town  meeting  was   held,  article   6 

reading  as  follows  : 

"To  see  if  the  town  will  vote  to  accept  the  provisions  of  Chapter 
433  of  the  Acts  and  Resolves  of  the  General  Court  of  the  present 
year.  This  is  an  act  which  will  legalize  the  vote  of  this  town,  passed 
March  28,  1895,  purporting  to  authorize  the  town  Treasurer  to  borrow 
$21,000  for  purposes  of  a  park  in  the  vicinity  of  "  High  Rock  "  pro- 
vided the  town  votes  by  a  majority  vote  at  this  meeting  to  accept  the 
provisions  of  said  act.  If  the  town  at  this  meeting  refuses  to  accept 
said  act,  then  said  vote  of  the  town  passed  last  March  remains  unaf- 
fected by  said  act." 

The  vote  was  taken  by  a  "  yes  and  no  ballot,"  147  voting 
in  the  affirmative  and  231  in  the  negative. 

According  to  the  opinion  of  able  lawyers,  this  does  not 
prevent  the  present  Commissioners  or  their  successors  from 
making  a  contract  with  the  land  owners  to  jjurchase  the 
land,  and  then  compel  payment  through  the  courts.  It  also 
permits  the  Treasurer  to  borrow  the  money  at  any  rate  of 
interest  of  any  one  who  will  accept  the  loan  without  any 
enabling  act.  Or  if  brought  before  the  town  in  due  form, 
this  act  may  be  voted  on  at  any  time  or  many  times  between 


37 

now  and  May  9,  1896.  Your  present  Board,  regardless  of 
their  own  opinion,  refused  to  take  any  further  action  in  the 
premises,  believing  that  majorities  rule,  that  it  was  fair  to 
interpret  this  vote  of  June  26th  as  an  instruction  not  to  buy, 
and  that  the  citizens  should  be  the  final  judges  of  what  they 
want.  It  is,  however,  an  undesirable  situation,  and  we 
recommend  that  an  article  be  inserted  iu  the  next  town  war- 
rant, under  which  the  town  can  either  accept  the  enabling 
act  before  quoted,  or  can  rescind  the  vote  passed  the  28th 
day  of  March,  1895,  so  that  the  matter  can  be  finally  dis- 
posed of  by  the  town. 

5.  As  many  changes  must  necessarily  occur  intheRead- 
ville  District  in  the  near  future,  it  would  seem  advisable 
from  the  economical  standpoint  that  the  Park- way  proposed 
between  Stony  Brook  and  Blue  Hill  Reservations  be  lai<l 
out  and  built  next  year.  But  this  is  beyond  the  jurisdiction 
of  this  Board.  It  could,  however,  be  brought  before  the 
Legislature,  on  petition,  if  a  sufficient  number  of  citizens 
are  interested. 

The  Metropolitan  Board  at  present  have  no  money  with 
which  to  construct  ways,  and  as  some  of  the  towns  are  urging 
their  claims  with  much  force  and  pertinacity,  it  is  quite 
probable  they  will  throw  the  burden  of  obtaining  an  appro- 
priation from  the  Legislature,  for  any  specific  park  way, 
upon  the  advocates  of  the  measure.  One  town,  at  its  own 
expense,  is  obtaining  releases  and  terms  of  sale  from  all 
land  owners,  to  ascertain  the  probable  cost  of  the  proposed 
way.  If  there  is  a  predominant  sentiment  in  Hyde  Park 
in  favor  of  this  improvement,  some  method  of  expressing  it 
might  lead  to  good  results.  In  order  to  have  a  fair  chance 
for  success,  any  attempt  in  this  direction  must  receive  the 
hearty  co-operation  of  our  citizens.  The  advantages  of  a 
Boulevard  connecting  these  two  reservations,  can  hardly  be 
overestimated  from  any  standpoint.     Yet  it  costs  our  town 


38 

no  more  to  have  this  road  built  than  it  does  to  have  the 
same  sum  expended  by  the  Metropolitan  Commission,  in 
any  other  town  in  the  Metropolitan  District.  We  pay  our 
proportion  the  same  as  for  MetroJDolitan  Parks. 

With  these  suggestions  we  leave  the  matter  to  the  good 
common  sense  of  our  citizens.

During  the  past  year  the  Commissioners  have  extended 
Fairview,  Magnolia,  Poplar,  and  Aspen  Avenues,  and  Haz- 
el path.  They  have  laid  out  and  graded  lots  in  several  dif- 
ferent parts  of  the  cemetery ;  also  graded  a  large  section 
for  single  graves.  They  have  laid  1,000  feet  of  drain  pipe, 
which  will  drain  a  large  proportion  of  the  cemetery. 

The  Commissioners  intend  to  erect  sign-boards  with  the 
names  of  the  avenues  or  paths  in  the  parts  of  the  cemetery 
which  are  completed,  and  they  expect  also,  early  next 
spring,  to  lay  water  pipes  in  different  sections  of  the  ceme- 
tery.

An  appropriation  of  $500  by  the  town  is  recommended 
by  the  Commissioners,  this  being  fifteen  hundred  dollars 
less  than  last  year.

Since  the  last  annual  report  the  department  has  moved 
into  the  new  qtiarters  provided  by  the  town,  which  are  a 
decided  improvement  over  the  old  ones.  The  cell  room  is 
well  lighted,  w^arm  and  dry,  and  pi-isoners  are  now  separat- 
ed from  the  travellers  who  apply  nightly  for  lodgiugs,  and 
we  are  enabled  to  keep  the  lock-np  in  a  clean  and  healthy 
condition.  The  office  and  officers'  quarters  are  ample  and 
commodious.  Complaints  have  frequently  reached  us  for 
better  protection  in  the  Clarendon  Hills  district.  Although 
the  force  has  been  increased  during  the  year  the  appropria- 
tion made  would  not  admit  of  a  regular  patrolman  in  that 
vicinity,  and  I  trust  this  may  be  remedied  the  coming  year. 
A  night  patrol  was  placed  on  the  old  Camp  Ground  and 
vicinity  early  in  the  spring,  owing  to  the  large  floating  pop- 
ulation employed  on  the  new  mile  track,  most  of  whom 


43 

came  from  other  States  and  who  camp  upon  the  grouhcls. 
A  night  man  has  been  phiced  on  Fairmount  and  vicinity. 
Keadville  and  Hyde  Park  Avenue  above  the  woollen  mill 
have  also  been  provided  for.  Several  special  officers  have 
been  assigned  to  duty  on  Sundays  and  holidays. 

Few  crimes  of  a  serious  nature  have  been  committed  dur- 
ing the  year  as  will  be  seen  from  the  report  herewith.  A 
large  number  of  complaints  have  been  investigated  without 
arrest,  many  of  them  outside  our  jurisdiction,  but  to  which 
we  gave  our  attention  for  the  peaceful  interests  of  all  con- 
cerned. 

The  Street  Railway  has  added  largely  to  the  duties 
of  the  department.  The  vicinity  of  Hyde  Park  Avenue  and 
West  River  Street  has,  on  pleasant  evenings  and  Sundays 
required  the  attention  of  an  officer  constantly,  owing  to  the 
large  number  of  people  who  congregate  there  to  take  pas- 
sage in  the  cars.  It  is  anticipated  that  travel  will  materially 
increase  the  coming  year  owing  to  the  extension  of  the 
tracks  to  Milton  Lower  Mills,  and  to  the  completion  of  the 
new  mile  track  at  Readville  early  in  the  season.  Although 
the  larger  part  ©f  the  new  mile  track  will  be  located  in  Ded- 
ham,  entrance  to  the  same  will  be  through  our  town,  and 
during  the  occupancy  of  the  grounds  for  trotting  purposes 
a  police  force  will  necessarily  be  required  there,  as  the 
people  who  visit  the  place  will  come  largely  from  surround- 
ing towns  and  cities.  Race  track  gatherings  usually  draw 
an  element  from  near-by  cities  Avhose  presence  is  not  desir- 
able, and  who  live  largely  at  the  expense  of  others. 

During  the  financial  year  ending  January  31,  1896, 
2,980  travellers  were  cared  for,  against  3,411  in  the  year 
ending  January  31,  1895,  and  4,731  in  the  year  ending 
January  31,  1894. 

I  would  recommend  that  the  force  be  increased  at  least 
one  man  during  the  coming  year. 


44 

In  conclusion,  I  respectfully  tender  my  thanks  to  the 
public  and  to  the  Board  of  Selectmen  for  their  cordial  sup- 
port during  the  year,  trusting  that  the  department  has  been 
conducted  in  a  satisfactory  manner  with  the  force  at  my 
disposal.

Chief  of  Police  and  Keeper  of  Lock-up. 


REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  HEALTH. 


To  THE  Citizens  of  Hyde  Park  : 

The  Board  of  Health  herewith  submits  its  annual  report. 

The  work  of  this  year  has  been  in  about  the  same  line  as 
years^before.  Complaints  of  different  kinds,  care  in  regard 
to  the  spread  of  contagious  diseases,  and  carrying  out  the 
laws  in  relation  to  plumbing  contracts. 

Most  of  the  complaints  to  the  Board  have  proved  on  in- 
vestigation to  be  well  founded.  A  few  did  not  come  under 
the  jurisdiction  of  the  Board.  About  one  hundred  and  fifty 
complaints  have  been  received  in  relation  to  overflowing 
cesspools,  vaults  in  bad  condition,  wet  land,  filthy  houses 
and  yards,  dead  animals,  and  swine  kept  without  permits. 

In  order  that  the  work  of  the  Board  might  be  carried  on 
to  better  advantage,  and  those  having  business  to  bring  be- 
fore the  Board  could  receive  proper  attention,  the  Secretary 
was  instructed  to  be  at  the  Board  of  Health  rooms  one  hour 
each  day  to  receive  all  communications  and  to  attend  to  any 
matters  which  might  come  up  for  action,  and  we  have  found 
that  this  has  been  a  great  help  in  the  management  of  the 
work  of  the  Board. 

SANITARY. 

"We  consider  the  sanitary  condition  of  our  town  in  most 
parts,  fair.  We  hope  the  town  will  adopt  the  report  of  the 
committee  appointed  by  the  town  to  look  into  the  matter  of 
a  system  of  sewerage,  and  begin  at  once  to  construct  such 
system,  and  thus  put  us  in  condition  to  guard  against  conta- 
gious and  malarial  diseases,  the  occurrence  of  which  we  be- 
lieve to  be  favored  by  our  present  system  of  drainage. 
Privy  vaults  continue  to  be  an  intolerable  nuisance  and  are, 


46 

in  a  measure,  responsible  for  sickness  which  might  other- 
wise be  avoided.  The  change  in  the  system  of  clearing 
vaults  and  cesspools  is  perfectly  satisfactory  to  the  Board, 
and  we  believe  to  most  of  the  citizens.  The  cost  of  the  work 
is  more  than  it  should  be,  but  on  account  of  the  distance  to 
the  place  used  for  dumping  we  have  been  unable  to  change 
this  up  to  the  present  time.  The  Board  will  be  only  too 
willing  to  make  any  changes  which  will  lessen  the  cost  to 
individuals  having  this  work  done.  We  invite  the  most 
thorough  and  careful  investigation  into  this  matter,  and  are 
confident  that  the  citizens  will  find  that  the  Board  are  doing 
all  in  their  power  to  make  this  service  acceptable  to  them. 

CONTAGIOUS    DISEASES. 

There  has  been  quite  an  increase  in  the  cases  of  contagi- 
ous diseases,  although  in  some  respects  we  have  fared  better 
than  some  of  the  towns  about  us.  The  increase  in  cases  of 
measles  has  given  a  large  total  for  this  year.  We  find  that 
in  cities  and  towns  where  a  hospital  is  provided  that  patients 
receive  in  most  cases  better  care,  the  contagion  is  less  liable 
to  spread;  and  deaths  are  less  frequent.  We  hope  the  time 
will  come  when  we  can  have  this  help  in  our  work. 

The  following  is  the  report  of  cases  for  this  year  :

COLLECTING     OFFAL. 

The  contract  for  collecting  ofiial  for  the  year  was  given  to 
the  lowest  bidder,  Mr.  E.  M.  Cundall,  he  giving  Mrs.  Hu- 
kin  the  right  to  collect  on  the  route  covered  by  her  teams 
for  several  years.  Owing  to  the  change  in  collector,  to 
whom  the  work  was  new,  and  also  to  an  increase  in  the 


47 

number  of  places,  a  great  many  have  not  received  the  atten- 
tion they  should  ;  but  we  trust  that  by  another  year,  who- 
ever does  the  work,  this  will  not  occur  again. 

SWINE. 

The  complaints  are  coming  in  more  and  more  each  year 
in  regard  to  keeping  swine  in  the  thickly  settled  portions  of 
the  town.  No  one  is  allowed  to  keep  swine  without  a  per- 
mit, and  all  permits  which  are  granted  with  the  provision 
that  if  complaint  is  made  they  will  be  cancelled.  Orders 
have  been  given  to  several  parties  to  dispose  of  swine  kept 
without  permit,  and  such  orders  have  been  complied  with. 

PLUMBING. 

In  this  branch  of  our  work  there  is  much  to  do  each  year. 
On  the  1st  of  May,  C.  T.  Lovell  resigned  as  Inspector,  he 
being  unable  to  attend  to  the  work  on  account  of  other 
duties.  J.  C.  Savage  was  appointed  to  take  his  place. 
This  made  a  vacancy  in  the  office  of  Assistant  Inspector  and 
S.  G.  Gifford  was  appointed  Assistant.  Tho  work  has,  in 
most  cases,  been  done  in  a  satisfactory  manner,  and  Ave  be- 
lieve that  the  town  will  be  greatly  benefitted  by  the  enforce- 
ment of  the  plumbing  laws. 

The  Board  of  Examiners  have  examined  two  candidates 
as  master  plumbers,  and  one  as  journeyman,  and  licenses 
were  granted  in  all  cases. 

The  Inspector,  in  his  report  to  the  Board,  calls  attention 
to  the  fact  that  under  the  new  laws  work  which  has  in  a 
great  many  cases  been  hardly  up  to  the  standard,  is  now 
done  as  required.  The  number  of  jobs  inspected  was  about 
one  hundred  and  thirty.  There  were  forty-two  cases  where 
rules  were  not  complied  with,  which  were  attended  to  when 
attention  was  called  to  them.  A  few  cases  where  notices 
were  sent  old  work  was  inspected  and  the  result  made 
known  to  the  Board. 


48 

We  agree  with  our  Inspector  in  the  statement  that  our 
plumbing  is  equal,  as  regards  sanitary  requirements,  \tith 
any  of  our  sister  towns  or  cities.

after engage  in  or  work  at  said  business  in  the  town  of  Hyde  Park, 
either  as  a  master  or  employing  plumber  or  as  a  journeyman  plumb-

ness of  plumbing,  either  as  a  master  or  employing  pkimber,  or  as  a 
journeyman  plumber,  shall  apply  to  the  Board  of  Health  and  shall  at 
sach  time  and  place  as  may  be  designated  by  the  board  of  examiners 
appointed  by  the  Board  of  Health,  as  provided  for  in  said  Acts,  to 
whom  such  application  shall  be  referred,  be  examined  as  to  his  qual- 
ifications for  such  business.  In  the  case  of  a  firm  or  corporation  the 
examination  and  licensing  of  any  one  member  of  the  firm,  or  the 
manager  of  the  corporation  shall  satisfy  the  requirements  of  this 
regulation. 

Section  HI.  The  board  of  examiners  shall  examine  said  appli- 
cants as  to  their  practical  knowledge  of  plumbing,  house  drainage 
and  plumbing  ventilation,  and  if  satisfied  of  the  competeny  of  the 
applicant,  shall  so  certify  to  the  Board  of  Health. 

Said  board  will  thereupon  issue  a  license  to  such  applicant  author- 
izing him  to  engage  in  or  work  at  the  business  of  plumbing.  The  fee

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

REPORT  OF  THE  TRUSTEES  OF  THE  PUBLIC 
LIBRARY. 


Wheu  the  last  annual  report  was  written  the  Trustees 
hoped  that  some  decided  progress  would  before  this  time 
have  been  made  toward  the  erection  of  a  new  building  for 
the  use  of  the  library.  Though  nothing  material  has  yet 
been  done,  they  note  with  pleasure  that  the  attention  of  the 
public  has  been  aroused  and  that  many  of  our  most  active 
and  influential  citizens  are  agitating  the  subject.  Through 
the  liberality  of  a  public-spirited  lady  the  Readville  district 
is  soon  to  have  a  suitable  building,  and  it  is  to  be  regretted 
that  the  rest  of  the  town  should  be  obliged  to  submit  to 
such  inferior  accommodations. 

Those  who  have  long  been  residents  of  the  town  have 
watched  with  pride  and  satisfaction  the  increasing  excel- 
lence and  beauty  of  its  dwellings,  but  they  notice  with  re- 
gret no  corresponding  improvement  in  its  public  l^uildings. 
A  good  book  deserves  a  good  binding,  and  a  well-bound 
book  deserves  to  be  kept  amid  suitable  surroundings.  Is  it  too 
too  much  for  you  to  ask  that  when  you  go  from  your  attrac- 
tive homes  after  books,  (orsend  your  children  for  them)  that 
you  may  find  an  equally  attractive  place  in  which  to  consult 
them?  The  neighboring  towns  find  that  money  judiciously 
expended  for  good  buildings  is  money  well  invested,  since  it 
calls  to  their  borders  a  desirable  class  of  residents  who  are 
able  and  willing  to  assist  in  bearing  its  burdens.  Should 
we  find  money  thus  expended  a  less  profitable  investment 
than  they  have  found  it? 

Your  Trustees  confidently  look  forward  to  a  time  in  the 
not  distant  future  when  the  Library  shall  be  not  merely  a 


55 

place  where  our  citizens  may  get  books  and  hasten  away, 
but  a  place  so  attractive  that  they  may  remain  there  with 
pleasure  to  become  familiar  with  its  treasures  of  literature 
and  science.  It  ought  also  to  be  a  source  whence  they  may 
draw  not  only  books  but  information  about  books  ;  where 
both  young  and  old  may  receive  suggestions  to  direct  their 
reading  wisely.  Thus  it  may  both  directly  and  indirectly 
raise  the  standard  of  literary  taste  in  the  whole  community. 

The  Trustees  have  under  consideration  plans  for  making 
the  library  more  helpful  to  the  public  schools.  These 
plans  they  hope  to  be  able  to  put  into  active  operation  dur- 
ing the  coming  year. 

A  new  catalogue  is  much  needed,  but  it  has  been  deemed 
unwise  to  incur  so  great  an  expense,  since  the  radical  re-ar- 
rangement of  books  which  a  change  of  quarters  would  make 
necessary  would  render  such  a  catalogue  useless.  Some- 
thing, however,  has  been  done  to  supplement  the  existing 
catalogue  by  bulletins  posted  in  the  reading-room  and  by 
lists  printed  in  the  local  papers. 

The  circulation  has  been  practically  the  same  as  last  year, 
the  number  of  books  taken  for  home  use  having  been 
33,578,  while  2,951  magazines  and  1,351  books  have  been 
taken  out  for  use  in  the  reading  room. 

There  have  been  added  to  the  library  612  volumes. 

The  following  donations  have  been  received  :

REPORT  OF  THE  OVERSEERS  OF  THE  POOR, 


The  Board  of  Overseers  of  the  Poor  herewith  present 
their  twenty-eighth  annual  report  for  the  year  ending  Janu- 
aay  31,  189G.  Although  the  total  number  of  persons  aided 
during  the  year  shows  a  marked  decrease  compared  with 
the  previous  year,  this  fact  is  due  to  the  falling  off  in  the 
number  of  tramps  lodged,  while  the  number  receiving 
full  support  and  temporary  aid  has  increased.  Careful  in- 
vestigation has  shown  that  intemperaece  was  the  cause  in  a 
large  proportion  of  the  new  cases.  In  a  few  instances  the 
applicants  have  been  deserving  and  their  condition  could 
not  be  attributed  to  causes  other  than  sickness  or  lack  of 
employment.  It  is  not  to  be  understood  that  all  persons 
applying  will  receive  relief.  A  just  discrimination  will  be 
exercised,  and  temporary  relief  granted  only  to  deserving 
persons  after  such  inquiry  and  investigation  as  the  circum- 
stances of  each  case  will  admit.

REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  ENGINEERS. 


T^  THE  Board  of  Selectmen  : 

We  herewith  respectfully  present  our  report  of  the  Fire 
Department  for  the  year  ending  January  31,  1896. 

The  Central  Fire  Station,  which  for  many  years,  has  had 
very  little  expended  upon  it,  has  been  thoroughly  repaired 
and  painted  and  a  Magee  combination  heater  put  in.  The 
hose  house  at  Readville  has  been  further  improved  and  at 
present  is  quite  a  model  house.  The  entire  Department  has 
been  equipped  with  the  latest  and  most  improved  harness 
hangers.    Five  hundred  feet  of  new  hose  has  been  added. 

For  the  better  care  of  wet  hose  the  hose  tower  ©n  the 
Central  Station  has  been  improved  and  a  special  heater  con- 
nected for  use  on  frozen  hose. 

That  part  of  the  Central  Station  formerly  occupied  by  the 
Police  Department,  recently  vacated,  supplies  a  long-felt 
want.  It  should  now  be  improved  for  fire  department  uses. 
One  thousand  feet  of  new  hose  should  be  added. 

It  is  an  established  fact  that  the  Department  is  composed 
of  capable  and  active  men.  All  its  members  try  to  do  their 
duty.  They  respond  promptly  to  alarms  and  get  to  the  fire 
as  quickly  as  possible  under  some  difficulties.  Much  better 
time  could  be  made  if  there  were  two  pairs  of  horses  and 
two  permanent  men  in  the  Central  Station,  and  in  our  opin- 
ion it  is  time  such  addition  was  made  to  the  department  fa- 
cilities. If  such  a  condition  can  be  reached,  the  entire  de- 
partment need  not  respond  on  first  alarms  ;  having  horses 
in  readiness,  they  can  hitch  and  wait  20  minutes,  and  if  not 
called,  retire. 


61 

Your  attention  is  called  to  the  fact  that  the  town  is  o;rowinor 
in  all  directions,  and  East  River  Street  represents  a  large 
amount  of  property,  taking  in  Holmfield  and  a  part  of 
Rugby.  In  case  of  an  alarm  from  that  district  it  is  a  long 
run.  At  present  we  depend  upon  horses  from  an  outside 
stable.  Very  often  the  horses  we  get  are  just  put  up  after 
a  long  drive  or  a  hard  day's  work,  and  it  is  not  to  be  ex- 
pected that  they  can  take  the  apparatus  to  a  fire  as  quickly 
as  a  good  fresh  pair  waiting  in  the  Station  for  just  such 
work. 

Fortunately  our  town  has  not  been  visited  by  serious  fires 
during  the  past  year.  It  is  well,  however,  to  bear  in  mind 
that  the  business  blocks  in  our  midst  are  the  kind  of  mate- 
rial for  a  large  conflagration.

REPORT   OF   THE    SCHOOL  COMMITTEE. 


To  THE  Citizens  of  Hyde  Park  : 

Another  year  has  been  added  to  the  history  of  our  Public 
Schools,  and  the  committee  having  their  interests  in  im- 
mediate charge  take  pleasure  in  calling  attention  to  their 
present  condition  and  in  making  such  suggestions  as  may 
aid  m  the  proper  understanding  of  their  needs  and  work. 

We  believe  the  past  year  to  have  been  one  of  good  faith- 
ful work  in  the  public  schools,  and  consequently  attended 
with  good  results  to  the  children  of  the  town. 

While  some  of  our  neio'hborino;  cities  and  towns  have 
been  compelled  to  close  many  of  their  schools  by  reason  of 
contagious  diseases  Hyde  Park  has  escaped  such  a  mis- 
fortune. We  have  endeavored  to  protect  the  children  and 
schools  against  such  an  evil  by  carefully  guarding  the  sani- 
tary condition  of  the  rooms  and  buildino;s  used  by  the 
pupils.  Germicides  and  disinfectants  have  been  freely  used 
in  the  belief  that  the  expense  involved  was  of  small  import- 
ance as  compared  with  the  health  of  the  children. 

Those  having  the  control  of  the  public  schools  who  forget 
or  neglect  to  care  for  the  health  of  the  children  but  poorly 
perform  the  duties  assigned  them. 

What  does  it  avail  that  the  pupil  has  a  fine  mental  train- 
ing if  his  physical  condition  is  so  broken  that  he  cannot  bear 
the  strain  consequent  upon  a  practical  application  of  his  in- 
tellect to  the  pursuit  of  some  useful  vocation. 

Better  far  preserve  good  sound  bodies  that  a  vigorous  use 
may  be  made  of  all  acquired  knowledge.  The  State  wants 
for  citizens  men  capable  of  work,  not  merely  intellects  with- 
out bodily  health  or  strength. 


152 

The  competent  teacher  carefully  watches  the  physical 
wants  and  comforts  of  his  pupils.  Especially  so  in  the  early 
years  of  the  school  course.  A  teacher  who  does  not  do  this 
and  is  careless  about  matters  affecting  the  health  of  the 
children  but  poorly  performs  his  duty,  even  though  rapid 
advancement  may  have  been  obtained  in  scholarship. 

We  have  endeavored  to  have  teachers  employed  who 
would  fully  appreciate  this  duty,  and  this  committee  has 
tried  at  all  times  to  see  that  the  children  had  proper  care  and 
attention. 

It  is  often  said  that  more  subjects  ought  to  be  taught,  or 
that  special  training  should  be  introduced  and  the  course  en- 
riched in  many  ways. 

The  town  has  for  many  years  been  careful  in  all  of  its  de- 
partments to  incur  only  such  expense  as  seemed  necessary, 
and  to  avoid  any  increase  of  its  tax  rate  for  purposes  where 
the  need  was  not  apparent. 

This  department  has  been  in  accord  with  this  public  de- 
sire, and  its  policy  in  the  past  has  been  conservative. 

It  is  an  easy  matter  to  increase  the  expenditures  for  public 
education  in  ways  that  have  not  seemed  advisable  while  citi- 
zens were  paying  large  sums  of  money  towards  our  debt  and 
interest  account. 

The  town  has  now  reached  the  proportions  of  a  city  and 
its  debts  are  substantially  paid.  Under  these  conditions  the 
tax  paj'ers  may  feel  it  no  hardship  to  increase  the  pay  of  our 
teachers  and  employ  some  for  special  and  industrial  work. 
The  fact  cannot  be  denied  that  the  demand  for  trained  teach- 
ers has  greatly  increased,  and  if  we  are  to  retain  such  we 
must  increase  the  schedule  of  salaries.  Again,  with  the 
opening  of  the  schools  in  the  three  new  buildings  the  ques- 
tion of  proper  supervision  presses  for  attention. 

While  our  pupils  were  accommodated  in  the  large  build- 
ings, each  having  a  master,  we  have  felt  that  by  em  loving 
masters'  assistants  good  supervision  could  be  obtained  from 


153 

our  masters  ;  but  with  the  scattering  of  small  schools  in 
various  parts  of  the  town  our  conditiou  approaches  that  of 
other  towns  where  a  superintendent  has  been  found  neces- 
sary. This  question  must  soon  be  practically  considered 
and  settled.  Should,  the  town  decide  to  employ  a  superin- 
tendent, policy  would  demand  that  a  man  of  high  standing 
and  acknowledged  merit  be  secured.  If  special  supervision 
is  to  be  had  it  should  be  of  the  best  quality. 

A  few  suggestions  may  not  be  out  of  place  as  to  the  work 
of  our  course. 

It  hardly  seems  to  us  expedient  to  add  more  to  its  re- 
quirements as  now  arranged.  The  eight  years  consumed  in 
the  grammar  and  primary  schools  are  hardly  sufficient  to 
drill  the  pupils  in  the  branches  required  by  law.  Indeed  it 
seems  that  in  many,  if  not  most,  cases  the  work  of  the  grades 
is  in  advance  of  the  mental  development  of  the  pupil.  Mat- 
ters that  require  reason  have  to  be  taught  before  that  quality 
is  developed  in  the  children.  Much  better  results  would  be 
obtained  if  the  course  could  be  taken  by  maturer  minds. 

As  has  been  said  in  past  reports  of  this  committee  the  time 
of  the  grammar  course  should  be  extended  if  more  is  to  be 
required  from  it.  It  is  better  to  master  the  few  essentials 
than  obtain  only  confused  and  superficial  ideas  of  many  things. 

The  lesson  of  thoroughness  itself  should  be  well  taught  in 
the  schools  that  are  to  prepare  citizens  for  a  proper  perform- 
ance of  their  duty.  If  children  are  compelled  to  take  a 
course  of  public  instruction  under  coi  iitions  where  from  the 
very  nature  and  amount  of  work  required  thoroughness  can- 
not be  had  and  instructors  are  forced  to  be  content  with  the 
superficial  from  want  of  time  and  ability  of  pupils  to  com- 
prehend, is  there  not  a  danger  that  we  are  fostering  an  evil 
from  which  the  children  and  community  must  hereafter 
suffer?  It  would  seem  to  be  unwise  to  add  more  to  our 
course  without  adding  to  its  length  in  years.

It  would  be  far  wiser  to  reduce  the  number  of  branches, 
if  possible,  so  that  complete  mastery  might  be  obtained  of 
those  that  were  retained. 

Most  cities  and  large  towns  have  a  course  of  nine  years, 
and  it  would  seem  that  Hyde  Park  might  well  consider 
whether  it  would  not  materially  improve  her  school  system 
to  add  another  year  to  her  grammar  school  course. 

The  reports  of  the  various  local  committees  having  charge 
of  the  respective  schools  are  submitted  herewith.  A  care- 
ful examination  of  them  will  afford  information  of  their  work 
and  present  condition.

JANITORS. 

Last  year  the  Legislature  passed  an  Act  requiring  persons 
having  charge  of  steam  boilers  to  obtain  a  license  from  the 
State  Police,  such  license  to  be  issued  upon  examination. 
This  new  departure  by  the  State  placed  the  janitors  of  our 
school  buildings  at  disadvantage,  as  none  held  such  a  license. 
They  at  once  made  application  for  a  license,  but  as  yet  no 
time  has  been  accorded  them  by  the  examiners  in  which  to 
meet  the  test.  These  janitors  we  have  had  in  charge  of  the 
various  steam  plants  since  their  installation  in  the  various 
buildings.  They  have  each  and  all  been  faithful  and  careful 
in  their  management,  and  we  are  confident  of  their  practical 


158 

merits  to  occupy  the  positions  which  they^hold,  whether  they 
can  succeed  in  satisfying  the  technical  demands  of  a  written 
examination  remains  to  be  seen.  In  the  case  of  Mr.  Wheeler 
at  the  Damon  School,  who  was  employed  before  the  steam 
was  introduced,  the  local  committee  believing  him  to  be  a 
faithful  and  worthy  man  for  the  place  allowed  him  to  take 
instructions  in  the  care  of  the  boiler  and  pipes,  and  when 
pronounced  competent  by  his  instructor  and  a  local  expert 
he  was  placed  in  charge  and  special  efforts  made  to  have  him 
examined  by  the  State.  Like  many  another  who  has  at- 
tempted the  examinations  submitted  in  such  cases  he  failed 
to  obtain  his  license  and  left  the  position.  In  view  of  the 
fact  that  the  janitors  have  to  remain  in  their  respective 
buildings  at  all  times  during  school  sessions  when  heat  is 
used,  and  during  severe  winter  weather  the  care  of  the  pipes 
keep  them  in  the  buildings  all  night  the  board  in  April  voted 
to  increase  their  pay  from  $36  per  month  for  10  months  to 
$45  per  month  for  12  months.  This  to  include  all  extra 
work  and  the  cleaning  of  the  rooms  during  the  summer  va- 
cation.  The  pay  at  the  Damon  School  is  somewhat  less  be- 
cause of  the  smaller  number  of  rooms  in  use.  This  increase 
caused  in  a  great  measure  the  call  for  an  additional  appro- 
priation in  December. 

ACCOMMODATIONS. 

In  keeping  with  the  suggestions  made  last  year  by  this 
committee  the  matter  of  additional  accommodations  was 
brought  before  the  citizens  in  March,  and  a  committee  was 
appointed  to  examine  the  matter  and  report  back  to  the  town. 
A  report  was  made  in  June,  and  $16,000  was  appropriated 
for  three  small  buildings,  and  the  whole  matter  was  placed 
in  the  hands  of  a  building  committee.  At  this  date  these 
buildings  are  still  in  the  course  of  construction.  How  far 
they  will  meet  the  requirements  of  the  schools  we  are  unable 
to  say. 


159 

MUSIC. 

Miss  Elizabeth  M.  Dodge  has  been  continued  in  charge  of 
the  musical  instruction  of  the  course,  and  we  believe  her 
efforts  have  given  entire  satisfaction. 

TEXT    BOOKS. 

During  the  summer  the  Board  voted  to  substitute  Potter's 
Geography  for  Warren's,  and  in  December  Montgomery's 
United  States  History  was  substituted  for  Barnes's  in  the 
VII.  grades. 

DEPARTMENTAL    WORK. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  school  year  the  local  committee 
at  the  Grew  School  was  authorized  to  introduce  this  system 
in  the  V.,  YI.  and  VII.  grades  as  an  experiment.  It  has 
since  that  time  been  upon  trial  under  most  favorable  condi- 
tions. The  report  of  the  local  committee  contains  further 
information  in  this  particular. 

TRUANCY. 

It  was  discovered  early  in  the  year  that  by  reason  of  a 
change  made  in  the  truancy  laws  of  the  State  our  own  pro- 
visions had  become  inoperative.  New  provisions  were 
brought  before  tb3  town  and  adopted,  and  the  same  have 
been  approved,  by  the  Court.  We  are  now  able  to  enforce 
the  attendance  of  delinquents,  which  aids  the  teachers  and 
work  of  the  schools  very  materially. 

In  conclusion  we  would  impress  the  thought  that  the  public 
school  is  at  the  foundation  of  good  citizenship,  and  good  citi- 
zenship is  necessary  for  the  proper  conduct  of  business  af- 
fairs and  public  concerns. 

It  is  therefore  of  first  importance  that  the  work  of  the 
children  in  our  schools  should  be  such  and  only  such  as  will 
tend  to  make  good  citizens,  strong  in  body  and  mind,  honest 
in  purpose,  self-reliant  in  action,  sober  and  industrious,  to 
the  end  that  a  love  for  our  Constitution  may  be  fostered,  our 
free  institutions  perpetuated  and  the  cause  of  civilization  ad- 


160 

vanced  by  those  whose  education  we  have  been  called  upon 
to  furnish  and  superintend. 

We  wish  to  acknowledge  the  courtesy  sliown  to  us  by  the 
citizens  during  the  past  year,  and  to  express  our  apprecia- 
tion therefor,  and  to  further  acknowledge  the  faithfulness 
and  loyalty  of  our  teachers.  In  view  of  these  conditions  the 
duties  assigned  us  have  been  harmoniously  performed,  and 
we  hope  in  a  manner  that  will  be  found  creditable  when 
time  shall  have  fully  demonstrated  the  results.

SUB-COMMITTEES'    REPORTS. 


HIGH     SCHOOL. 

The  graduating  exercises  of  the  High  School  occurred  on 
the  24th  of  June  last,  with  ajcreditable  program  both  in 
arrangement  and  quality  of  matter.  The  music  was  of  a 
high  order  and  was  well  received.  Twenty-eight  scholars 
were  graduated  from  the  4-years'  and  9  from  the  2-year's 
courses.  Of  these  6  went  to  college,  2  to  Normal  School 
and  1  to  Training  School.  Wherever  examinations  were 
required  they  were  passed  with]credit,|and  the  students  are 
now  doing  well.  The  organization  of  the  school  this  year 
is  as  follows  :  — 

Senior  class 45 

Second     " 36 

Third        " 60 

Fourth     " 82 

Total -        -        223 

Changes  in  our  teaching  force  during  the  year  have  been 
as  follows  : — The  resignation  of  Mr.  W.  M.  Cannon  in  June 
was  followed  in  September  by  the  appointment  of  Mr.  E. 
Q,  S.  Osgood,  a  gentleman  of  exceptional  culture,  and  well 
known  as  a  citizen  of  Hyde  Park.  Lieut.  Philip  J.  Flanders 
as  military  instructor  was  succeeded  in^September  by  Mr. 
A.  W.  Lowe,  who  continues  his  duties  as  teacher  in  the 
Business  Course,  with  the  addition  of  the  military  drill. 
Miss  Alice  G.  Beede  was  employed  at  the  beginning  of  the 
Fall  term  as  a  half-time  teacher  to  relieve  the  pressure  of 
work  in  the  department  of  English  injthe  enteringclass.  This 
study  has  had  especial  attention  [in  this  school,  as  it  has 
every  where   within  the  last  few  years,  where  the  subjects 


162 

are  treated  with  the  thoroughness  which  the  best  instruction 
demands.  A  recent  revision  of  a  portion  of  the  school  pro- 
gram, dividing  the  hirge  third  chiss  in  Latin  (46  schoLars), 
now  fills  up  Miss  Beede's  duties  so  that  she  has  been  made 
a  full-time  teacher  from  January  1st.  She  is  doing  good 
work  so  far,  and  seems  amply  qualified  for  the  position. 

Miss  Marion  K.  Dean,  our  instructor  of  last  year  in  physi- 
cal culture,  has  this  year  been  given  charge  of  classes  in  elo- 
cution in  addition  to  her  work  in  physical  culture.     This 
subject  seemed  to  the  committee  to  be  sadly  neglected  in 
both  grammar  and  high  schools,  here  and  elsewhere,  and  to 
judge  from  the  reading  of  candidates  for  teachers'  positions 
who  come  here  from  Normal  schools  and  take  our  examina- 
tions, the  study  is  lacking  in  thoroughness  there  also.     To 
read  ivell  is  an  elegant  accomplishment,  and  it  seems  to  be 
as  rare  as  it  is  elegant.     Much  time  now  devoted  to  other 
things — and  this  is  probably  the  reason  why  good  reading  is 
so  neglected — could  be  more  profitably  spent  in  elocution  in 
the  judgment  of  your  local  committee.     Miss  Dean's  work 
embraces  other  branches  of  the  study,  and  we  hope  the  im- 
provement in  this  direction  will  be  apparent  in  the  daily 
recitations  of  the  school  as  well  as  in  the  annual  exhibitions, 
when  further  progress  has  rendered  the  instruction  complete. 
The  school  has  now  a  fairly  well  equipped  chemical  labora- 
tory, and  the  instruction  is  of  a  good  character  and  up  to 
the  requirements  for  entrance  to  the  best  technical  schools. 
Physical  science  however,  although  not  lacking  in  import- 
ance as  a  study,  and  although  as  a  study  it  has  come  up  in 
the  past  few  years  from  a  somewhat  neglected  branch  to  be 
seconel  to  none  in  importance,  still  labors  under  difficulties 
with  us,  as  has  been  in  former  years  stated  by  this  commit- 
tee,    The  department  of  physics  as  now  taught  has  been 
transferred  to  the  modern  laboratory  plan  of  teaching  largely 
by  experiments  ;  and  since   1887  Harvard   College  has    de- 


163 

veloped  the  practice  of  requiring  for  entrance,  experiments 
in  this  branch.  We  have  been  able  to  slowly  add  some  ap- 
paratus, but  proper  accommodations  for  its  use  is  lacking. 
A  separate  room  is  needed  with  tables  specially  constructed 
to  bring  our  facilities  up  to  those  of  surrounding  towns. 

The  work  of  the  school  in  other  departments  has  been 
fully  up  the  past  year  to  that  of  any  year  in  its  history  in  its 
general  character.  We  believe,  however,  that  the  useful- 
ness of  the  school  and  the  thoroughness  of  its  instruction 
would  be  increased  by  full  and  better  accommodations.

HELEN  M.  DEAN, 
ELLA  F.  BOYD. 


GREW     SCHOOL. 

The  work  has  progressed  in  a  very  satisfactory  manner 
during  the  past  year.  Miss  Winslow,  for  many  years  faith- 
fully performing  the  duties  of  master's  assistant,  was  com- 
pelled by  reason  of  ill  health  to  resign  her  position  in  June. 
This  was  a  misfortune,  as  Miss  Winslow  was  a  strong 
teacher.  Miss  Elizabeth  Strongman  was  appointed  to  her 
place,  and  her  work  has  thus  far  been  satisfactory.  She 
gives  evidence  of  being  a  well  equipped  teacher.  With  this 
exception  the  teaching  force  remains  as  last  year. 

Acting  under  a  vote  of  the  Board  we  introduced  the  de- 
partmental  system  in  the  V.,  VI.  and  VH.  grades  in  Sep- 
tember, and  have  since  watched  its  merits  with  much  in- 
terest. We  are  satisfied  that  the  test  is  being  made  under 
most  favorable  conditions,  as  the  teachers  of  these  grades 
are  among  the  strongest  employed  by  the  town. 

At  the  close  of  the  Autumn  term  we  were  not  fully  satis- 
fied that  the  trial  had  been  long  enouo-h  to  warrant  a  final 
recommendation  as  to  benefits  of  the  system,  and  the  trial 
will  at  least  be  continued  throuo;h  the  Winter  term. 


164 

In  matters  purely  of  instruction  it  seems  to  have  an  ad- 
vantage over  the  former  method,  but  in  matters  of  individual 
training  and  character  building  its  value  is  doubted,  and  as 
yet  it  is  a  question  in  the  minds  of  teachers  and  committee 
whether  its  gains  are  not  fully  balanced  by  losses. 

With  a  corps  of  teachers  of  less  merit  or  with  one  teacher 
of  less  ability  the  system  would  undoubtedly  fail. 

Repairs  upon  the  building  were  made  during  the  summer. 
New  gutters  were  placed  upon  the  building,  new  floors  laid 
in  the  upper  and  lower  halls,  a  new  floor  placed  in  the  XII. 
class  room,  new  furniture  in  three  primary  rooms,  a  high 
board  fence  upon  the  northwest  side  of  the  lot  and  new  stone 
vaults  built  for  the  outbuildings.  These  repairs  were  largely 
made  from  the  special  appropriation  made  for  this  building 
in  March. 

Like  the  other  larsre  buildino;s  this  one  is  o-ettins;  old  and 
will  constantly  call  for  substantial  repairs. 

The  primary  rooms  are  now  crowded,  and  with  the  ad- 
dition of  new  pupils  that  may  be  expected  in  the  spring  the 
committee   will  be  called  upon  to  provide  room  elsewhere. 

Whether  the  new  Hilton  street  building  can  be  utilized  is 
a  question  in  view  of  the  distance.  Had  that  building  been 
located  near  the  High  School  the  diflflculties  would  have  been 
fully  met. 

In  conclusion  we  wish  to  bear  testimony  to  the  faithful 
work  of  the  teachers  and  the  kind  co-operation  of  the  patrons 
of  this  school  during  the  year. 

Eespectfully  submitted,

FAIRMOUNT     SCHOOL. 

The  usual  standard  of  excellence  has  been  maintained.  The 
corps  of  teachers,  as  a  whole,  is  eminently  satisfactory.     It 


165 

has  been  our  policy  to  fill  all  vacancies,  as  far  as  practicable, 
with  residents  of  our  town,  and  the  result  has  proven  suc- 
cessful beyond  our  most  sanguine  expectations.  Misses  Le 
Bourveau,  Farnsworth  and  Morrell,  the  most  recent  ap- 
pointees, are  rendering  a  service  that  graduates  of  Training 
and  Normal  Schools  could  not  excel.  We  would  not  have  it 
underst©od  that  we  decry  such  institutions,  though  inclined 
to  the  theory  based  upon  experience  and  observation  of 
many  years  that  our  best  teachers  are  "  born  not  made."  A 
well  rounded  education  fortified  with  the  most  advanced 
methods  is  never  a  guarantee  of  success,  for  without  tact, 
that  absolute  essential,  the  pathway  is  strewn  with  dismal 
failures. 

The  question  of  heating  this  building  no  longer  perplexes 
us,  for  whether  the  temperature  outside  is  at  zero  or  15  de- 
grees below,  all  the  rooms,  at  the  opening  of  each  session, 
have  an  average  temperature  of  70  degrees.  The  desks  in 
some  of  the  rooms  are  decidedly  unfitted  for  the  use  of  the 
pupils  and  should  be  replaced  by  those  of  more  modern  pat- 
tern, for  while  we  strive  to  develop  the  mental  capacity  of 
the  pupil  we  should  guard  well  that  the  physical  develop- 
ment does  not  suffer. 

The  repairs  upon  the  building  the  past  year  have  been 
only  such  as  were  actually  necessary  to  maintain  the  plant 
and  give  security  and  comfort  to  the  inmates.

GREENWOOD    SCHOOL. 

The  work  of  the  Greenwood  School  during  the  past  year 
has  been  accomplished  under  great  disadvantages,  owing  to 
the  crowded  condition  of  the  building.  The  teachers  have 
been  faithful  and  cheerful  under  difficulties,  and  have  almost, 
without  exception,  put  forth  their  best  efforts  on  behalf  of 


166 

their  pupils,  and  the  result,  as  a  whole,  has  been  satisfactory. 

In  the  lower  grades  many  changes  have  occurred.  Each 
division  of  the  Twelfth  Class  has  had  no  less  than  three 
teachers  since  the  opening  of  school  in  September.  Our 
more  wealthy  neighbors  are  able  to  ©ffer  inducements  that 
deprive  us  of  our  teachers,  one  by  one,  but  we  hope  they 
are  at  last  satisfied,  and  that  we  may  be  permitted  to  retain 
the  teachers  at  present  employed.  Notwithstanding  the 
numerous  changes  no  disturbance  has  occurred  in  any  of  the 
rooms. 

Miss  Martha  jNIcLellan  and  Miss  Gertrude  Phmimer  are 
teaching  the  divisions  of  the  Twelfth  Class.  Both  are  ex- 
perienced teachers,  and  although  they  have  been  with  us  but 
a  short  time  they  have  already  demonstrated  their  ability  to 
do  the  work  required  of  them.  The  resignation  of  Miss 
Evelyn  Howes  of  the  Eleventh  Class  was  deeply  regretted 
by  your  committee.  Miss  Wyman,  who  succeeded  Miss 
Howes,  and  Miss  Murray,  who  succeeded  Miss  Batchelder, 
in  the  Ninth  Grade,  are  doing  good  work. 

At  the  close  of  the  Spring  term  Miss  Buker,  the  master's 
assistant,  resigned  her  position.  A  general  and  well  earned 
promotion  followed,  leaving  a  vacancy  in  the  second  division 
of  the  Ninth  Grade.  This  vacancy  has  been  filled  by  Miss 
Gertrude  Tilden,  whose  work  is  giving  general  satisfaction. 
Of  the  remaining  teachers  it  is  unnecessary  to  speak.  They 
have  been  with  us  for  some  time  and  their  records  speak  for 
them. 

This  report  would  hardly  be  complete  were  no  mention 
made  of  the  resignation  of  our  tried  and  trusted  janitor,  Mr. 
Albert  Lord,  who  has  served  the  school  well  and  faithfully 
for  many  years,  and  by  his  good  work  has  contributed  to  the 
comfort  of  both  teachers  and  scholars.  Mr.  George  Mc- 
Donald, our  present  janitor,  has  held  the  position  but  a  few 
v/ecks.     His  long  experience  in  caring  for  a  large,  high  pres- 


167 

sure  boiler,  and  his  excellent  recommendations  as  to  relia- 
bility are  sufficient  guarantee  of  his  fitness  for  the  place.

DAMON    SCHOOL. 

No  changes  have  taken  place  in  the  teaching  force  during 
the  past  year.  In  November  Mr.  R.  Wheeler  resigned  his 
place  as  janitor,  and  Mr.  A.  W.  Henderson  was  engaged  to 
fill  the  position.  Last  year  as  tho  fifth  and  sixth  classes 
were  so  small  it  was  thought  best  to  have  them  unite  and 
take  fifth  class  work,  which  was  done,  and  most  of  them 
graduated  as  fifth  class  pupils.  This  left  the  school  without 
a  graduating  class  for  this  year.  The  master,  Mr.  A.  W. 
Armstrong,  is  doing  thorough,  efficient  work  in  his  own  room 
and  is  unifying  the  work  throughout  the  building.  The 
teachers  are  working  faithfully,  and  good  results  are  being 
secured. 

May  17th  was  observed  as  '  Bird  day  "  in  all  the  rooms, 
and  many  interesting  things  about  the  birds  were  said  and 
sung. 

Wednesday,  at  noon,  Feb.  6th,  1895,  the  school  house 
caught  fire  from  the  furnaces,  and  but  for  the  prompt  and 
efficient  work  of  the  firemen  would  have  been  totally  de- 
stroyed. Temporary  quarters  were  at  once  found,  and 
Wednesday,  one  week  later,  the  five  lower  classes  resumed 
their  work  in  the  stores  in  the  Stevens  Block,  and  the  other 
classes  one  day  later  in  the  Cycle  Club  rooms.  The  fire, 
while  seriously  damaging  only  two  rooms  and  the  hallways, 
occasioned  much  injury  to  all  of  the  rooms  from  smoke  and 
water.  The  weather  was  extremely  cold,  and  the  inside  of 
the  building  was  so  covered  with  ice  for  several  days  that  it 
was  difficult  to  estimate  the  extent  of  the  damages.  As 
early  as  possii)le  the  adjusters  performed  their  duties,  and 


16« 

we  were  at  liberty  to  proceed  with  repairs.  The  town 
promptly  voted  to  place  the  amount  of  $4,290.21,  received 
from  the  insurance  companies,  at  the  disposal  of  the  School 
Committee  for  this  purpose,  and  we  were  authorized  to  use 
this  fund  at  our  discretiDU.  As  soon  as  possible  our  furnace 
was  put  in  condition,  and  the  rooms  were  cleared  of  the  ice 
and  dried.  When  this  had  been  thoroughly  done  five  rooms 
were  found  in  a  condition  to  be  safely  used,  and  needed  but 
comparatively  little  work  by  carpenters  to  make  them  very 
comfortable.  It  was  thought  wise  to  do  this  work  immedi- 
ately, and  Mr.  Warren  W.  Hilton,  who  had  adjusted  the  loss 
for  the  town,  and  was  familiar  with  the  exact  condition  of 
the  rooms,  was  employed  to  do  this  work,  and  instructed  to 
proceed  promptly,  as  the  town  was  paying  rents  for  the 
rooms  used  by  the  schools.  So  well  did  he  follow  these  in- 
structions that  on  March  11th,  in  less  than  five  weeks  after 
the  fire,  the  school  re-assembled  at  the  Damon  building  in 
five  very  comfortable  rooms.  Of  course  the  ceilings  were 
badly  discolored,  but  all  had  been  thoroughly  cleaned.  The 
old  furnaces  had  been  repaired  by  Mr.  Lewis,  and  connec- 
tions made  so  that  during  the  spring  the  rooms  were  kept 
very  well  warmed.  The  matter  of  a  permanent  heating  ap- 
paratus was  considered  by  us  before  any  considerable  work 
was  done  upon  the  furnaces,  and  several  well  known  concerns 
were  asked  to,  and  did,  give  us  figures  upon  cost  and  time  re- 
quired to  install,  but  for  reasons  before  stated  it  was  thought 
best  to  defer  until  summer,  and  until  we  could  ascertain 
how  much  our  repairs  would  cost,  and  thus  know  how  much 
of  the  hind  at  our  disposal  would  be  left  for  a  heating  plant. 
Upon  the  closing  of  schools  in  June  we  at  once  arranged 
with  Mr.  Hilton  to  superintend  all  the  repairs  and  furnish 
the  carpenter  work  by  the  dav,  a  course  that  seemed  to  be 
best  from  the  condition  of  the  building  and  the  uncertainty 
ot  the  exact  amount  of  work  which  would  be  found  neces- 


169 

sary.  Bids  were  received  for  the  painting  and  mason  work 
upon  specificati©ii8  prepared  by  Mr.  Hilton,  and  by  the  first 
of  August,  after  careful  estimate  of  our  expenditures  and 
obligations,  we  had  the  satisfaction  of  finding  a  balance  on 
hand  suflScient  to  warrant  us  in  contracting  with  the  Exeter 
Machine  Works  for  a  steam  heating  plant  for  $1,592,  This 
concern  has  supplied  the  town  with  their  plants  and  its  work 
has  always  been  satisfactory,  and  as  its  estimate  was  the 
lowest  obtained  we  contracted  with  it  at  once  that  the  work 
might  be  done  by  Sept.  1st. 

The  building  has  been  thoroughly  repaired,  painted  inside 
and  out,  with  new  furniture  in  three  rooms,  and  furnished 
with  a  first-class  steam  heating  plant  from  the  fund  received 
from  the  insurance  companies.  The  building  is  nearly  as 
good  as  new,  and  will  need  little  repair  except  possibly  upon 
the  roof  for  many  years  to  come.  We  annex  to  this  report 
our  items  of  expenditures.

BUTLER     SCHOOL. 

This  school  continues  under  the  charge  of  Miss  Gidney, 
who  is  doing  good,  faithful  work.  At  the  beginning  of  the 
Fall  term  it  was  found  impossible  to  accommodate  the 
many  children  in  this  district,  but  through  the  kindness  of 
the  local  committee  and  master  of  the  Greenwood  School, 
the  extra  number  was  transferred  to  that  alread}^  crowded 
school.  • 

During  the  summer  vacation  the  room  was  cleaned  and 
the  walls  were  whitened,  and  a  new  closet  was  built  for 
the  books  and  other  appliances  needed  in  school  work.  A 
flag-pole  has  been  added  to  the  building  in  accordance  with 
the  laws  of  the  State. 

The  yard  has  been  filled  in  with  gravel  to  a  nearer  level 
with  the  present  grade  of  the  street,  but  this  should  be  car-^' 
ried  still  further,  although  it  is  impossible  now,  unless  the 
buildina  is  raised.      This  should  be  done,  and  the  surround- 


171 

ing  trees  should  be  trimmed  in  order  to  let  in  the  pure  sun- 
shine, and  so  keep  the  school  in  a  dry,  healthful  condition. 
The  attendance  has  been  large  all  winter,  and  it  does  seem 
that  before  long  this  section  of  the  town  will  also  need 
larger  accommodations.

EVENING     SCHOOLS. 

The  Committee  on  Evening  Schools  submit  the  following 
reports  and  recommend  that  the  Board  adopt  the  sugges- 
tions therein  stated. 

JOSHUA   F.  LEWIS, 
AUGUSTA  L.    HANCHETT. 

To  the   Committee  on  Evening  Schools : 

I  herewith  submit  the  following  report  of  the  Evening 
School : 

The  school  opened  on  the  evening  of  October  28,  1895. 
The  first  two  evenings  were  for  registration.  The  regular 
work  commenced  on  the  evening  of  October  30th,  since 
which  time  it  has  continued  with  good  success.  In  the 
English  department  27  students  were  registered  ;  the  aver- 
age attendance  is  16 ;  the  average  age  is  20  years  and  4 
months.     Six  nationalities  have  been  represented. 

In  addition  to  the  English  studies  regularly  taught  in- 
struction has  been  given  in  French  and  Latin,  Bookkeep- 
ing has  been  taught  to  a  small  number  of  students.  If 
this  study  is  to  be  taught  as  a  special  study,  I  would  sug- 
gest that  a  different  text  book  be  used,  as  the  text  book  now 
in  use  is  not  complete  enough  to  meet  the  requirements  of 
even  the  average  business  house. 

Stenography  is  taught  as  a  special  study,  and  was  intro- 
duced into  the  Evening  School  in  November,  1894,  and 
carried  on  with  good  results.      This  year  a  larger  number 


172 

of  students  have  received  instruction  on  this  subject.  The 
number  registered  is  20  ;  average  attendance  11  ;  average 
age  19.  The  students  have  made  such  rapid  progress 
that  a  number  of  them  are  at  the  present  time  receiving 
dictation  practice  on  business  letters,  the  same  being  dic- 
tated at  the  rate  of  75  words  per  minute.  I  would  suggest 
that  a  certificate  be  issued  to  those  students  who,  at  the 
close  of  the  school,  are  able  to  write  70  words  per  minute 
on  new  matter.  If  this  were  done  it  would  encourage  the 
students  to  do  their  best  work  and  would  also  fix  a  value 
to  the  instruction. 

The  students,  in  all  departments,  who  have  been  regu- 
lar in  attendance  have  been  faithful  in  their  work  and  the 
results  more  than  justify  the  outlay. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

A.  W.  LOWE,  Principal. 
To    the    Committe  on  Eveni7ig  Schools  of  the    Town  of 
Hyde  Park. 

I  submit  the  following  report : — 

From  the  time  of  writing  the  last  report  to  April  i  the 
School  manifested  its  usual  marked  improvement  with  the 
average  number  of  pupils  to  the  end  of  the  term  being 
good. 

On  Oct.  28,  the  thirteenth  term  opened  under  its  usual 
pleasing  auspices,  at  which  time  fifty-two  young  and 
middle-aged  men  were  enrolled,  and  this  number 
increased  until  seventy-two  names  were  on  the  roll, 
divided  into  three  classes,  as  has  been  in  former  years, 
about  forty  of  whom  wished  to  enter  the  Elementary 
Class.  To  accommodate  this  large  number  (as  there 
were  not  sufficient  rooms  or  boards)  your  Committee  ad- 
vised the  adoption  of  another  evening,  which  was  so 
adopted,  until  the  New  Year  vacation,  at  which  time  this 
class  was  divided  into  two  classes,  namely.  Architectural 


.173 

and  Mechanical ;  these  two  classes  are  about  equally  di- 
vided and  are  each  doing  some  excellent  work,  copies  of 
which  will  be  shown  at  the  end  of  the  term.  These  two 
classes  meet  on  Mondays  and  Wednesdays.  The  advanc- 
ed classes,  in  the  same  class  of  work,  meet  on  Wednes- 
days and  Thursdays.  These  classes,  while  not  so  large, 
are  doing  some  work  which  is  a  credit  to  them,  and  which 
we  are  in  hopes  to  show  at  the  end  of  the  present  term, 
about  April  i . 

The  Brainard  Milling  Machine  Company  have  loaned 
us  some  patterns  to  be  used  for  models,  for  which  mention 
should  be  made  and  thanks  returned. 

Hoping  this  will  convey  some  idea  of  the  work  done  in 
the  Evening  Drawing  School,  I  remain, 

E.  C.  TOURTELLOTTE,  Instructor. 

INDUSTRIAL     SCHOOL. 

The  Sub-Committee  on  Industrial  Schools  submit  the 
following  report  of  Mr.  Webb  as  their  report. 

R.   M.  JOHNSON, 
HELEN  M.  DEAN. 
To  the  Committee  on  Industrial  School  of  the    Town  of 
Hyde  Park. 
The  School  of  Carpentry  for  boys  opened  July  9,  1895, 
and  closed  September  3.     As  in  the  previous  year,  a  class 
was  formed  in  the  morning  of  pupils  who  had  attended 
the  school  the  year  before,  and  a  class  in  the  afternoon  for 
beginners.      I  am  inclined  to  believe  that  the  privilege  of 
taking  home  such  small  articles  as  some  of  them  succeed- 
ed in  making,  increased  their  enthusiasm,  and  consequent- 
ly   a   better    attendance  was  obtained.     Forty-eight  boys 
applied  and  took  lessons  during  the  term,  and  the  average 
daily  attendance  was  twenty-six. 

Respectfully  submitted.
