PUBLIC LIBRARY,
The Board of Trustees of the Mansfield Public
Library herewith submit their annual report:
At the annual town meeting in March last, Mr. A.
V. Rogerson and Mr. W. L. Robinson were re-elected
members of the Board of Trustees for the term of`
three years. At the regular monthly meeting of the
Board on tha last Monday in March, which the by-
laws provide shall be the annual meeting, the Board'
organized with the choice of Rev. Jacob Ide for Presi-
dent, and W. A. Copeland, Esq., for Secretary.
The regular standing Committees were chosen as.
follows;
Ou Library and Librarian, Messrs. Ide, Robinson'
and Copeland.
On Library Room, Messrs. Borden and Rogerson.
On finance and Accounts, Messrs. Rogerson and
Lucas.
Miss Hattie M. Shepard was re-elected Librarian
for the year, and Miss Grace Al. Cobb has been em-
ployed as Assistant Librarian.
In accordance with the vote of the town at the
#3
50
March meeting, upon .the recommendation of the
trustees and with the -approval of the other town
officers interested, the Library was removed from the
Selectmen's room, which it had occupied jointly with
the Selectmen from the time the Library was estab-
lished in 1884, to more commodious quarters on the
opposite side of the corridor. The change was not
made until the slimmer vacation in order that the
regular use of the Library might not be interrupted
longer than necessary. The Library, was closed for a
three weeks and re -opened Aug. '28thin the new
rooms. The expense of fitting up the rooms and of
removal was less than $200 and the change is regard-
ed as a great improvement.The Selectmen's room
has thus been enlarged by the space formerly occu-
pied by the Library, and has been available for other
uses on Library evenings; which was before impossi-
ble. In fitting up the new quarters, the partition
between the Board of Registrars' room and the High
School Assistant's room was removed, and the Libra-
rian's desk substituted in place of the partition. The
small room formerly known as the Town Clerk's roan
opening out of the rear of the Registrars' room was
also fitted up with shelves, and these two rooms' form'
the Library proper, while books are received by pat-
rons of the Library in that portion known as the High
School Assistant's room. There is ample space for
the books which are at present in the Library as well
as for those which are likely to be added for, some
time. At the time the change was proposed, it was
n1
not anticipated by the School Committee that they
would need the Assistant's recitation room for some
time, but the increased attendance at the High School
led to the employment of an assistant, so that the outer
room is now used by the High School Assistant as
well as by the Library. Inasmuch as the Library is
not open during the school hours, however, there is
nio confusion at present arising from the double use.
A new supplementary catalogue B was issued last
April containing the additions from April, 1886, when
supplement A was issued, to April, 1888. There
have been added 102 volumes during the year, which
do not appear in that supplement. A list of the new
books is posted in the Library, and printed slips con-
taining the names can be obtained of the Librarian.
These additions are classified as follows: Fiction, 20 ;
Juvenile,-24; Miscellaneous, 55; History, 1; Star, 2.
About a hundred volumes have been re -bound dur-
ing the year, and several that were entirely worn out
from use have been replaced by new copies. The
Library now curtains 2,034 volumes. 24;3 cards have
been issued to new borrowers during the year. 12,-
550 books have been given out during the year, an
average of 63 on Tuesday evenings, and 188 on Satur-
day afternoons and evenings. The average classifica-
tion of those taken out on Saturdays is as follows :
Fiction, 101 ; Juvenile, 53 ; Miscellaneous, 17 ; Biog-
raphy, 7; History, 5; Poetry, 5.
The money received from sale of catalogues and for
-fines during the year amounts to $32,
;5L
llr. J. F. Comey, whose munificent gifts to the -
Library in the past°are gratefully remembered, upon
urgent request for a picture of himself has kindly pre-
sented the Library with a line large photograph hand-
somely framed, which now adorns the walls of the
Library.
The trustees recommend an appropriation of $400,
for the ensuing year for the support and maintenance
of the Library.

ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
8C HOO_LJ COMMITTEE
E
OF THE
TOWN OF MANSFIELD
FOR THE YEAR 1888-80.
SCHOOL COMMITTEE'S REPORT.
The practical interests in its Schools, shown by
the town making promptly fair appropiations for them
at the beginning of the year, encouraged your com-
mittee to enter on its duties hopefully, to take up
some new work, and to propose some changes in grad-
ing up the Schools.
Some changes in our corps of teachers were
made by the resignations of Messrs. Fisher and Lewis,
and Miss, Lord and Mrs. Comey ; a few others by
the needs of the schools. We have been by law
required to employ assistant teachers in the High,
and in one Primary school. And we have been for-
tunate in securing good teachers to fill vacancies. We
do not think it necessary to give details of the several
Schools, believing they speak for themselves, to those
who visit and know of them.
{ In the spring term the agent of the State Board
of Education, Mr. Martin, visited and examined near-
ly all of out Schools; and afterwards met the teach-
ers at the High School room, showed specimens
of the work of our pupils, and also of those of adjoin-
ing towns: and in a two hours' talk gave many excel-
lent hints to the committee and teachers, as to what
i
to aim to do, and how to work to improve and elevate
the standard in our schools.
We have also had a Teachers' Institute held here,
under direction of the Secretary of the Board of Edu-
cation, which was attended by all our teachers, and
by many others from adjoining towns, and proved a
useful session,. Besides, we Have had three visits by
Mr. Bailey, State agent, devoted to the extension of
Industrial Art Education, who has given instruction
in modeling in clay and in drawing to our teachers. `
They have taken up this important branch of school
work in a hearty and intelligent way, and are now
prepared to carry itforward successfully.
Drawing, as we are talon- it up, is not more
fancy work, making pictures and painting; but it is
an industrial art, useful in every possible work; study
and calling:
First actual forms —models —are studied and
their made, and afterwards drawn.. This teaches each
one to see, think and do; to observe accurately, think
correctly, and do efficiently: We send our children
to School to be trained, and the discipline furnished
in this study when pursued systematically, is found
Very useful, because it TRAINS THE EYE To sEi;, THE
MIN'D To THINS, AND THE HAND To. Do. "The teacher's
highest purpose is to make each child a'sensible,
thoughtful observer; with ability to see, to form cor
rect judgments, and to exercise all his faculties with
facility and precision. Drawing affords excellent
opportunities -for development in these directions.
Time given to drawing, properly taught, is time
gained in every line of work." Every teacher of draw-
ing will confirm this. Besides, "Drawing is a language
--the universal language —and every one, farmer,
mechanic, merchant or professional man, needs to know
this 'language, and how to read it; and will find it
helpful every day, to be able to express himself in the
"Language of form.
There is another much desired step to be taken
in our schools, and that is to provide for the introduc-
tion of music. We have some, singing in our schools,
but there is great need of teaching music systematic-
ally.
Not only, as experience shows, can every child
be taught to sing, if taken early, but there is a much
needed mental discipline afforded also in this study.
One writer says,'°No problem in arithmetic calls for a
keener use of the perceptive faculty than learning
sounds accurately, or singing at sight a piece of diffi-
cult music." Refining, purifying and elevating in its
tendences, it is helpful in every way to the school.
"Singing adds a fresh element of brightness and cheer-
fulness to the school routine," is the testimony of com-
petent observers everywhere. `'It smooths the rough
places of life, quiets unrest, lightoos the heavy bur-
dens and adds immeasurably to the enjoyment of the
domestic circle, and to the pleasures of social inter-
course."
There is such an interest, and so much ability
shown in our town in music, that it is strange it has
not been long since systematically taught in its schools.
As fast and as far as practicable we seek to grade
np, by providing suitable courses of study in each
school.
Hereafter in the Intermediate and Grammar
.grades, regular examinations are to be had from time ,
to time; so that each pupil fitted for it can be advanced
to the next grade ; and from the highest Grammar,
having passed in its examinations, he enters the
High School. This will dispense with the dreaded
and often most unsatisfactory annual examination for
admission to the High School.
The highest grade Grammar School is to begin
this spring term in No. 4 under the charge of
one teacher, Mr. Berry, and all pupils in the town -
fitting for the High;School, or completing their school
course with that grade, are expected to attend there.
This will make it necessary that the next grade gram-
mar pupils; from No. 4, attend with the same
grade at No. 5, for the present.
As soon as possible provision will be made for
them at No. 4.
The number of pupils attending the two primary
schools in the centre, oblige us to provide assistant
teachers.
Your Committee therefore recommend. the erec-
tion of an inexpensive building with two rooms, near
the North end, to accommodate the primary scholars
in that part of the town, and in this way relieve the
aa schools just mentioned.
We gratefully acknowedge the receipt of thirty
dollars, from one whosigns himself "A Friend of
Education."
The following estimate of appropriations needed.
for the coming year is respectfully submitted:
