 BOZRAH SCHOOL REPORT.
Leffingwell School Had Best Attend
 ance for the Last Year.

Supervisor l., T. Garrison of the Bozrah school has submitted his an nual report to the Bozrah school com- ulittee. The report is as follows:
 The per centum of attendance for the town was s9, showing a decrease is not to be construed to mean that there was falling off in attendance as compared with other towns. The extreme winter was the cause of the falling off. Bozra.h had the intertown banner during December, January, February, May and June. In attend ance Bozrah stands third as compared with my other towns. The average attendance with all additions and de- auctions was 126.75, thus showing a decrease as compared with the aver age attendance of last year.
 Leffingwe1 had best attendance for entire year. The per cent. attained was 95. The following shows the schools having best attendance during the year: September, Leffingwen, 100 per cent; October, Leffingwell, 97 per cant: November. Fitchvi.1e, gr.. 99 per

 Perfect attendance certificates sign ed by Gov. Marcus H. Holconlb will be awarded to Felix Milunas, Fitch vile primary; Lena Cole, Fitchville grammar, and Paul Clifford, Leff1ng- well.
 A special report has been submit ted covering the necessary and desir- able repairs. Ventilating boards and stoves placed in north corners with Jackets will add a great deal to the comfort and welfare of the children. Light, heat and ventilation cannot be overlooked if the highest degree of efficiency is to be attained.
 BoZrah street school was painted and new adjustable desks were placed in the Lefingwell school. Placing ad- unstable desks is step in the right direction.
 Where new blackboards are needed It will be best to purchase slate. When they are installed the expense ceases, which is not the case with material which needs to be slated every two or three years.
 A few reference books and a num-
  were added, thus placing useful tools at the disposal Of the children
 The course of study was revised and placed in the hands of each teacher The idea has been to make the work outlined as definite as possible. The required charts were printed so that teachers knew exactly what was ex- pected.
 Two formal tests were given by the supervisor. Satisfactory results were the rule. Those completing the work as outlined for grade eight were awarded town certificates. The grad uates were as follows: Theodore S. Abel, Johnson; Anna Resnick, Yetta Botnick, Bozrahville. The certificates were awarded by John F. Fields, chair man of the school committee
 The public library committee issued more reading certificates than during last year. This indicates that more are forming the habit. A certificate is granted to pupils reading five books from list submitted for the different standards. Reading that which is worth reading will result in a great benefit. It is to be regretted that the town does not have a library. Atten- ton to this matter would result in good for the entire community. Pupils forming the reading habit will come to realize what resource and advan- tage books are. They ought to read
Norwich bulletin., 1916-10-05

essays, history, biography, science. geograp phy, stories, editorials and cur rent events. If the reading habit can be formed the effort will not be in vain.
 Certificates for proficiency in first grade reading, writing for first and second grades, and for proficiency in arithmetic sn grades four and five were given to a greater degree than before, indicating that 8 greater per- centage of the pupils are working up to standard.
 The school at Fftchville was ap- proved and used as 8 model school during the year. Demonstrations were given by Miss Mccarthy and Mrs. Eastland at each teachers meeting. Aside from this demonstrations were given by teachers chosen by lot. The model school was visited regularly by the teachers of the town during the year. Plans of lessons taught were given to each teacher.
 Closing exercises were held on Sat urday afternoon, June Sd. I am of the opinion that future exercises would better be in the evening. Graduation exercises mean much to the boys and girls completing the work in the con- mon schools. Every effort should be made to have more completing the should be @ strong sentiment in favor of having town certificate before leaving the schools.

Flynn received the endorsement of the town committee for nomination as representative from the Second dis trict, and Attorney Samuel H. Davis has announced that he woll contest for the nomination in the caucus. Fran els G. Hasweu has been endorsed for renomination by the First District committee. Two years ago Joseph T.

 The general town committee has en- dorsed Albert H. Langworthy for state senator, to succeed Senator Louis w Arnold, who declines renomination aft CT many years Of service. It is prac- tically arranged to keep the polls open until ten o'clock on the night of the caucus and there will be some hustling to get out a, big vote. There are no registry caucus rules in Rhode Island as in Connecticut, and any voter can vote in any caucus, without regard to his politics.
