SCHOOL BOARD.
The superintendent Annual Report
Resolutions of Regret.

The regular monthly meeting of
the school board occurred last night.
The annual report of Superintendent
Bechdolt was received, aud is as fol-
lows:
Gentlemen of the Board Of Education of
MdnkdtO:
/ herewith submit my report for
the school year 81 and '92.
In casting about and specializing as
to the character of the work of the
past year for indications of progress
or decay worthy of your attention,
one matter comes to the front, and
that is the new quarters provided for
the High and Grammar schools. AL
gle to secure this building it is safe
to say that all right thinking men
heartily endorse the action, now that
it is an accomplished fact. For so
many years has it been the subject of
frequent reports from the superin-
tendent to call your attention to the
poor accommodations and need of ap-
paratus for physics and chemistry
that now all this is done away with
and that commodious quarters, well
equipped laboratory for chemistry
and physics are provided, it seems at
first difficult to find something to dis
cuss. That the pupils of the High
School have and do so thoroughly ap-
preciate the work done in their behalf
is evident in the efforts made by them
to establish and support gymnasium
and reading-room. In both their I'M
dertakings have they been successful
and they hand over to you for your
guardianship and care both of these
interests. In passing, l may be al
lowed to call your attention to the
value of a gymnasium and reading
room to the school. Not only does
the gymnasium ,develope and train
the physical side of every boy and
girl using it,. "a matter of no small
Importance, and whose value is read
lily recognized, but it makes school
life pleasanter. the associat ions more
cheerful, and in every way tends to a
higher standard of mental and physi-
cal well being. For the young man it
is of further value in that it provides
a place under reasonable restraint
where he can find the company of his
associates engaged in healthy, physi-
cal rivalry. 1t becomes therefore a
moral agent Of great influence, and
nowadays when the great moral ques-
ton is, how to keep young men off the
street and out of the saloon. is worthy
of cultivation.
AS to the reading-room, it may be
said that habits of reading are of
slow growth and if not created in
youth are not likely to be acquired
afterward. The schools cannot drive
pupils to love reading nor to read jul
diciously in case they do love reading
any more than they can teach the
multiplication table by means Of the
rod. The schools can, however, and
they owe it as duty, provide the op-
: portunity and material, and under
proper guidance the taste for good
reading, and judicious reading grows
OF itself. Viewed from still another
standpoint the reading-roem is of
