At' the Memorial Park, consideration should be given to the completion of the tennis courts, and also to the question of a swimming pool. Only a very small area of this park is left for development, and some progress should be made on this particular ." U L I C SCHOOLS work. 2. I would also recommend that continuance of the sidewalk program be carried out in cooperation with the Works Progress Administration. A large number of black -top walks. are in very .T poor condition, and they should be replaced with sromething perF- In The manent within the next few years. 3. I would like to see a continuation of the program on tarvia surfaced roads, so that eventually this work will be complete on our mads. TOW__N OF MANSFIELD 4. The Water Department will without question, during the coming year, continue with the laying of the new water mains, and they will no doubt use practically the entire amount of labor allotted from the Works Progress Administration during that period. 5. I would also recommend that some action be taken and �, 011111 /F recommendations submitted, by the Selectmen as to the upkeep of O.••E��"�ri�30 Memorial Park, as a certain amount of work will have to be done *�� i�l��fiam� *•' along the lines of maintenance, and if any shortage of relief labor v;o exists it will necessitate an appropriation by the vote of the people to carry .out this work: 6. I would recommend that study be given to the question of . q rowN auxiliary pumping at the Water Pumping Station, and an exhaus- tive study be made as to the advantages of the three kinds, name- ly: diesel, electric and steam. The present auxiliary plant was installed in 1887 and it is not in a reliable condition.

The most truly democratic of American Institutions are public schools. Children of every nationality, rich or poor, accepted and afforded the opportunity of obtaining a liberal ed tion. Like everything else, education has undergone rapid and sil nificant changes. The old and narrow idea that certain standar( should be created and required of all students has yielded to tl broader conception, that of adapting the school to the varyir needs of the pupils. It is a slow process, but I am trying to, ada] the course of study to fit the everyday needs, and have it possei a real "carry over" value. "The school must act as the appror( social agency for finding and disseminating real life informatic to the social group which needs it most. The school is the publi ly supported agency in a changing progressive world dedicated 1 the service of youth." Changes in Junior and Senior High School Faculties. In September, Mr. Donald Mattoon was elected principal s the Senior High School to succeed Mr. Everett Greene, who r signed to accept a position with the New England Telephone ax Telegraph Company. Miss MildredHannon was transferred fro the Junior to the Senior 'High School to fill the vacancy made l the resignation of Mr. George S. DePrizio. Miss, Eleanor Darme( was selected to take Miss Hannon's place at the Junior Hi€ School. Mr. Hugh B. Wood was elected to fill the position ma( vacant by the resignation of Mrs. Eloise Strople. Mr. Carr( Phillips resigned as attendance officer and Mr. Francis Miller wi elected to fill that vacancy. Senior High School Recreational Program.. A fine beginning has been made in a physical recreation pr gram for students in the Senior High School. This is design pmimarily for all girls( and for boys who do not participate athletics. It is gratifying to note the enthusiasm which i manifested in this activity. nd Art. h the beginning of school in September, music and art roduced on a part-time basis.

My intentions are to aid pupils in satisfactorily carrying for- ward their studies, to guide them in their school activities, to as- sist the earnest, capable teachers to attain the goals they desire, and to cooperate with all to the end that, by our combined efforts, each succeeding year may increasingly develop the latent poten tialities and the acknowledged attributes of Mansfield's young people. For record, a summary of activities during the school year 1935-1936 is given. I appreciate the kindly support of the members of the School Committee, the Superintendent of Schools, and the high school teachers, and the friendly cooperation of the pupils and their parents.

Merrill Superintendent of Schools Mansfield, Massachusetts t Dear Sir: I have the honor to present herewith my report, of :they Central Junior High School for the year ending December 31;,1936. The curriculum of the Junior High School has - .remained prac- tically unchanged. All students follow the same. prescribed studies in the seventh and first half of the eighth grades. In the . latter grade an opportunity is given those students, -interested.' ins aca- demic subjects to take an introductory course in Latin in. the second half year. In the ninth grade a pupil. is -free to. select his own: program of study and become a member of the. college, scien-. tific, or business course. An attempt has been made to lessen the number of subject failures by introducing an organized -program of supervised study under the guidance of the teacher. About fifteen minutes . of each period is devoted- to the preparation of the advanced assignment. This helps the pupil to form correct study habits and lightens the burden of home work. Learning how to study is an important part of school work and insures success in every `phase of life.' 88 The school banking system, established at the Junior High School, has been carried:, out- each week. Many pupils have taken the opportunity, thus offered, and habits of thrift are inculcated by this practice. Extra -curricular activities in the form of clubs are provided for the student body. These organizations are intrinsically voca- tional in nature and distinct in; procedure from the regular school work. Their aim is to provide for the worthy use of leisure time and develop interests which may become vocational. The follow- ing clubs are open to members of the Junior High School: the Dramatic, Press, Sewing, Handicraft, Current Events, Domestic Science, Manual Training Model Clubs, the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs, Study and Hobby Clubs. The monthly assemblies, held in the Town Hall, were both instructing and entertaining. The varied programs showed the excellent work done ;by the different departments- of the school. These performances serve to develop thoughtful group conduct, stimulate school spirit, and promote self-confidence. The Junior High School boasts a one hundred per cent enroll- ment in the Red Cross Chapter and as in former years keen inter- est was shown in the activities of this association. The Manual Training and Sewing Departments have cooperated with the local Red Cross representatives in projects for disabled veterans- and similar programs will be c4rried out during the coming year. The elementary course in Art Metal, introduced last year, has ,aroused the interest of the students and developed an appre- ciatiou of design and execution. The course is conducted along educationallinesand has created an understanding and sympathy for handwork in all fields. At a small cost this subject makes possible the creation of an individual project of beauty, design, and workmanship. The Junior High School athletic program included schedules in, football, basketball, and baseball.. A large number. of boys participated and promising material.was developed for future com- petitions. At the close of the season a banquet was given to the members- of. the football squad in appreciation for their loyal co- operation. The examinations for defective hearing were conducted by the 89 state authorities and the use of the audiometer revealed several cases of deficient hearing. In each case the parents were duly notified. The .annual exhibition attracted the largest number of parents it has been my privilege to meet. Considerable interest was evinced in the work accomplished by the students. The response was most gratifying to the teachers, as they are able to show a cross section of the work done during the school year and thus bring about a better understanding between home and school. I wish to. express my gratitude for your sympathetic under- standing an;d ready cooperation in all matters relating to the Junior High School. I also wish to thank the School Committee and the teachers for their loyalty and valued assistance through- out the school year. Respectfully submitted, JAMES J. KELLY, Principal REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN AND SCHOOL NURSE Mr. Bert L. Merrill Superintendent of Schools Mansfield, Massachusetts Dear Sir: I herewith submit a report of the health work conducted in .the Mansfield schools for the year 1936. In January, a tuberculosis clinic operated from the Bristol County Hospital was'held for pupils of the sixth, ninth, and elev- enth grades. This work included the VonPirquet test, X-ray of reactors, and physical examinations in indicated cases. 137 pupils from these grades -were given the test, 45 reacted as positive, and 45 were- X-rayed. ` .As a, result of the .X-ray,: 8 were given physical examinations. - 'The..tuberculosis : clinic is primarily used to prove that infection has -occurred and is an essential aid in confirming the diagnosis., . tuberculosis in. children. A positive tuberculin test in children has a greater significance than -a similar reaction in: adults. During December, tests: ;and X-rays were carried on in, 90 the same grades, with a physical examination to follow in January 1937. During March, the Chadwick Clinic, under the direction of thf State Public Health Department, was held for pupils being followec along on the State Ten -Year Program. 22 pupils were re-examined These pupils are weighed and measured every three month, throughout the year, and the record, with the X-ray report, i used to assist the doctors in their diagnoses. The pupil -s' that arE being carried along on this program will be transferred to the Bristol County Clinic as the number decreases. As in former years, four children were sent to the Bristol County Health Camp for a four weeks' vacation. This was made possible by the sale 'of Christmas Seals in our town. These child.- ren! were recommended by the doctors of the state and county clinics, who were hilum cases, contacts of tuberculosis, or suspi- cious cases. Each child, after spending four weeks at the Health Camp, showed a substantial gain. During the latter part of April the Public Health Department, through the request of the School Department, conducted a three- day Well Child Conference for pre-school children. The unit con- sisted of a pediatrician, nutritionist, dental hygienist, and public health nurse. Seventy-five per cent of the children entering school in the fall of 1936 attended this conference. This method was used to bring to the parents of these children the importance of medical supervision and the preparation! for school life. The children were examined and referred to the family physician for treatment. 18 children were "found to have slight defects, 7 with moderate de- fects, and 7 who needed immediate attention. Follow-up visits were made in these cases, with excellent results. The Dental Clinic was carried on at the Junior High School through the cooperation of the District Nurse Association, under the direction of Dr. Frederick L. Lucy of Taunton. The work of the clinic was confined to the first four grades. In November a free clinic was conducted for the prevention of diphtheria, through the cooperation; of the Board of Health. The clinic was open to pre-school children and first graders. Sixty children received complete immunization at that time. By giving the child this immunity, the disease is practically eliminated. The yearly physical examinations were completed in December 91 by our school physician. 1290 pupils were examined, and notices sent to the parents of any physical defect that was found. All members of the athletic squads were given a strip -to -the -waist examination. This included one hundred boys in the High and Junior High Schools. Seven children either three or more years retarded, or as problem cases, were examined by Dr. Morris L. Sharp and his assistant of the Foxborough State Hospital. The reports of these findings were to enable the teacher to understand and teach the child according to his particular problem. Classroom inspections, periodic weighing and measuring, mid- morning milk and crackers, consultations with parents, home vis- its, and first-aid treatments, have all been of vital importance in our school health program. One of our largest projects of the year was undertaken in November by introducing the audiometer in our schools, through the courtesy of the Mass. State Public Health Department. The audiometer is a device which tests one ear at a time by means of a telephone receiver, which reproduces speech sounds from an elec- tric phonograph. It is possible to test 40 pupils at one time by using multiple telephone headsets. Data sheets are used by the listeners to record what they hear. Through the use of the audio- meter in our schools, a more thorough check-up will be obtained of pupils whose hearing needs attention. Thirty-five cases of communicable disease have been reported during the year. No epidemic was prevalent. For professional improvement, meetings were attended of the Bristol -Norfolk Health Workers Club, various lectures on health subjects, and a two-day institute on communicable diseases, which was held .at the Bridgewater State College under the leadership of Miss Arnstein, consultant nurse of the New York State Board of Public Health. With the continuance of health education in our schools, there is no doubt but that the health standards will remain at a high level. Respectfully, kNNA G. VALLETT, R.N. DANIEL T.

Everett Town Manager Mansfield, Mass. Dear Sir: December 29, 1936 The year has been more or less uneventful as regards legal matters. During the year, no court cases have been decided against the Town. Numerous opinions have been rendered the Town and its several departments. The questions involved have covered many different kinds of matters, including: the confining of a dog which had bitten a man; the closing of certain streets to allow children to coast and the liability of the Town in that respect; the liability of the Town for fixing a roof which had collapsed on; a building which had been taken over for taxes; drawing a lease for the Avery Japanning Company; the question of shingling the roof of a fire station in West Mansfield at the request_ of the mortgage holder; study of contracts between the Town and Albert and Tilda Strauss for the taking of sand from a bank on the Strauss property; advice in reference to the intent of the Town in its vote regarding pipe necessary to correct the water main on Swett, Shields and Hope Streets; opinion in regard to fingerprinting and photographing applicants' for permits to carry firearms; drawing deeds on prop- erties foreclosed for taxes; questions as to what constitutes a pub- lic nuisance; settlement with Taunton Cooperative Bank for dam- ages in raising grade .of Town resident's property; taking care of various tax lien cases before the Land Court; advice regarding an accident on Town streets and in regard to insurance for signs over- hanging the public streets; and many other matters of a similar nature. As Attorney for the 'Town, 'I wish to thank its officials for their courtesy and cooperation with me as counsel for the . Town. Respectfully submitted, CLARENCE A.

P. McDERMOTT LEWIS A. RICHARDS EDWARD A. RICHARDSON HENRY M. OLSEN EVERETT W. ROBINSON Board of Selectmen 105 Fire Department To the Board of Selectmen, I respectfully submit the following report for the year 1936. During the year the Department received 123 calls, of which there were 26 box alarms. 50 squad calls, 21 still alarms, and 26 calls for Hose 3 in West Mansfield. They were classified as fol- lows, buildings 17, chimney fires 18, grass and brush fires 56, autos 3, oil burners 3, dump fires 5, also 1 call to Foxboro and 1 call to Sharon. The balance were for various reasons, including 2 false alarms. The fire alarm was also used for 1 police call and 2 boy scout calls. The fire losses for the year were as follows, Building losses, $9333.95 Loss on contents, $3318.00 Insurance paid, 9208.95 Insurance paid, 2333.00 Per capita loss, $1.807 On Feb. 6th, the ambulance service was discontinued, due to the poor mechanical condition of the old ambulance.,, At the annual town meeting the sum of $2800 was appropriated for the purchase of a new one. A strictly high grade, up to date machine was pur- chased and placed in commission on April 14th. No charge is made for use .of same by local residents. The old ambulance made 9 runs with a mileage of 352, and the new one has made 51 runs with 1865 miles, a total of 2217 miles for the year. A syphon was purchased by the Department at the beginning of the year, for the purpose of removing quantities of water quickly. This device was used to advantage during the flood period last spring for pumping out cellars, and has been of con- siderable assistance in removing water from trenches during pipe laying operations thus far this winter. A small portable pump with gasoline engine in one unit was purchased in June for use in handling forest fires. This pump is light in weight, and may be used at any brook or waterhole where it is impossible to place regular fire apparatus. It is easily carried 106 by 4 men and is capable of pumping a good working stream through several thousand feet of small hose, and may also be used in out- lying districts for building fires. On Nov. 3rd, while responding to a call on East St. below Pratt St., Comb. 2 with a crew of 4 men was in collision with a gravel truck at corner of Pratt and Hope Sts. All 4 mens were more or Tess injured and our truck was badly damaged. At a special town meeting on Nov. 23rd, a sum not to exceed $5700 was appropriated for the purchase of a new piece of apparatus. A 500gallon Seagrave pump was ordered and delivery is expected in the latter part of February. During the period that we are with- out this piece of apparatus the City of Boston has kindly loaned the town a 1000 gallon pump without charge. During the year a booster brake attachment has been installed on the old Seagrave pump, making its operation on the highway much safer. All hose in the Department has been tested, and weak sections laid aside for use in other departments. Not less than 500 ft. of new 21/2" hose should be purchased annually. The building remains in good condition, all outside woodwork including front doors having been painted this year. The fire alarm system has continued to operate satisfactorily during the year. A recording pressure gauge has been installed in the fire alarm room for the purpose of registering the pressure in the water mains at all times. I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen for their willingness to cooperate at all times, and also the Town -Manager and other Department heads for assistan^e given at all times. Respectfully, ARTHUR E. SOPER, Chief 107 Public Library Trustees To the Board of Selectmen, Gentlemen Falling in with the trend of the times, the Trustees of the Public Library are glad to report an upward turn in the business Of giving out books: Note the following table. This year 105 books were given to the Library against 57 last year. Some of these were from individuals, some through the Memorial Collection of the New Century Club. During Children's Book Week the Philathea Class of the Methodist Church, the Opti- mist Club of the Congregational Church, the Home Community Service of the Grange, and the Roland Green Parent -Teacher's Association gave books. We are pleased to note again the splendid cooperation of the Library and schools. The High School students continue to make use of the reference books during certain hours of the morning. As in other years, Miss Wood gave the entering class of the High School thorough and painstaking instruction in the use of the Library. This was done in groups in the morning during Septem- ber. For Book Week the pupils of Mrs. Janes' room in the Roland Green School made book posters. These were later exhibited in the reading room of the Library. To introduce worthwhile books to her pupils, Miss Graham of. the Junior High School made bulletins. These, too, were loaned foj- exhibition at the Library. 1935 1936 Circulation at the desk 40,570 44,152 East Mansfield deposit 636 714 West Mansfield " 2,233 1,880- ,880School School 2,513 4,393 Town Infirmary 100 157 46y052 511296 Books added to Library 559 024 This year 105 books were given to the Library against 57 last year.

To introduce worthwhile books to her pupils, Miss Graham of. the Junior High School made bulletins. These, too, were loaned foj- exhibition at the Library. 108 Mr. Robert Burgess of the manual training department made some needed and much appreciated steps for the alcoves in the stack room. In August, an experiment in rebinding books by the Toronto method was begun. This proved much cheaper than commercial rebinding and for most types .of books satisfactory. During Octo- ber, November, and December, Miss Claire Shields most graciously gave her services to the Library for the sake of the practical ex- perience; in her chosen profession. This released Miss Lunn from the desk and allowed her to devote her whole time to rebinding. In all, 400 books were rebound at the Library. We enter upon the year 1937 with the confident hope that the Library may serve the community as faithfully as in 193,6. Respectfully submitted, Jennie F. Copeland, Chairman Annie A.
