The City Schools.
Report of the School Committee, Superin-
tendent, Principal of High School, Music
and Drawing Teachers, etc.

and Drawing Teachers, etc.
The report of the school committee shows an
over-draft of s27O2l. due to the fact that the
amount received from the State is $58l.52 less
than last year, while the estimates were II ade
on the supposition that approximately the
same amount would be received from the State
as in the proceeding year. The transportation
has been more expensive this year and the bill
for fuel larger, but the total expenses were
$11146 less than last year. An explanation is
given of the non-attendance at the regular
meetings, and it is recommended that Section
l of the act providing for election of school
committee be amended SO that the committee
shall consist of not more than five members,
and those not confined to political districts.
An increase in the salaries of teachers is also
recommended. The union with Searsport ex-
pires this spring and the committee heartily
recommend this system. and that it be renewed
for longer period. The. committee say con-
cerning new school building:
The demand for new building for the High
and primary schools is too well known for any
comment from US. However, as we understand
the so-called Pierce bequest comes to the city
this year, recommend that said fund be
used for primary building and that sum be
raised by taxation to erect suitable building
for High school purposes.
This can be done without materially ncreas-
ing the tax rate, provided the city government
comprehends that the need of such buildings
is paramount to city teams, fire engines, parks,
steam rollers and the like In any event a
sanitary, well-lighted school building would be
better advertisement for our city than low
tax rate.

Miss Evelyn P. Morrison, special teacher of
drawing, says: "The only new thing intro

hand looms on which jute or woolen mats are
woven, carrying further the steps begun in the
first grade in the weaving of paper and raffia
mats. In the upper grades we make designs
suitable for weaving. thereby giving them
some knowledge which may prove very practi-
CAL" In reply to the question"Why do we have
drawing in the schools?" Miss Morrison saws;
1.-The most potent reason is that it better

line of work they may follow when their
school days are over, be it carpentry, dress
making, printing engineering The bow

ruler square, and of lettering, is of more
value to the contractor than the boy who does
not; and the girl who knows something of de-
sign and color is far more useful in the dress
making shop than the girl who does not. When
they have rounded out the nine years of grade
work and have had its full course, then will it
prove itself of great value. The mind and
hand have both received training which can
only be gained in that way. Until then we
can but go on, overlooking the discourage
ments and feeling glad that we have taken
the first steps toward giving the pupils of our
schools this training"
