Mrs. Jean Diaz, is, in the opin- ion of the committee, one of the most trying and difficult grades. It represents sort of transition stage. The romance of school has worn off a little, and the len- thu5iasm oi the beginner has be- come somewhat blunted. It is the period of dry definitions and hard tables and knotty prob lems of rods and acres, of weights and measures, of time and distance. But here, too, we found excellent work, and par ticularly were the committee im- pressed with the beautiful col ored maps. They were really admirable, and showed an intel ligent and comprehensive study of geography. The drawing, too, in this room was fine.
 With this grade closes our official report, but through the exceeding courtesy of the princi- pal, Prof. Hopkins, and other teachers, we visited all the rooms and were everywhere most gra- ciously received, both by teach CTS and pupils. There are names we would like to mention as en- titled to pre-eminence. There were some papers of such excel lence they deserve to be pu.;- lished, but feeling it might be the very worst thing possible for the boy or girl entitled to such distinction we desist from any special mention, feeling sure that those who have done their best will have the approval of their own conscience and the praise of their teachers.
 If this report seems to some too profigate of praise be as- sured that this committee recog- nizes the fact that there must have been many corrections and many trying experiences between teacher and pupil before this state of excellence was attained.
 Thanking the principal and teachers for the honor and privi- lege accorded us, and congratu- lating the people of our town upon having secured body of teachers so able, earnest and en- tirely devoted to their work, this report is respectfully sub- mitted to the board of directors, the parents and all interested in our school.
