trenely timely. since It prevented
u resortins to halliday session In
that schcoi. Every room In the
building. including two cour rooms
will be occupied at the reopening
of the schools in September. We
are obliged to locate three classes
of eighth grade girls in this build
ing. Should the proposed Hall
avenue building materialize by an
other year, grammar grade pupils
a be taken care of in other build
ings. If, on the other hand, room
is not created there or elsewhere
during the coming year. we r 60
ing to be confronted with the al
tentative of a half day high school
classes or the removal of the eighth
grade classes now in the high school
building, since the continuous
growth in numbers of pupils enter
ing the high school department will
require the use of the rooms now
used by pupils of a lower grade.
Herein is a problem of tremendous
magnitude.
The state has recently insisted on
an enlargement of high school libra
ries. Our local school library has
always been our most vulnerable
feature in our plan of secondary ed
ucation. AS a result of an appro-
priation of funds by the board, a
sufficient number of books VIII ne
added in September to those now on
hand to enable us to meet state re-
ouirements and, of still more I'M
portance, to afford students ibrar
facilities that are an absolute requl-
site in modern high school equip
ment. The state also suggests the
employment Of a trained librarian
or librarians in schools numbering
500 pupils or more. l join with the
teachers in the sincere hope that our
boys and girls may be recipients OF
the benefits TO be derived from the
skilled help and guidance of a libra
rian.
Day school pupils number $3.50
the report reveals. The increase
over last year is 6 per cent. but in
he high school alone the ilse
amounted to 23 per cent. The iars-
est numerical growth is in the con-
tinuation schools where the ihcreaSe
is 26 per cent.
PHYSICAL trair.ing and the DENIAL
clinic are commented upon thus:
mo step of MORE fa~r-reachlng I'M
portance during the SCORES of years
was taken by the state than making
physical training of pupils obliga-
tory. This step. more than any other,
opened the eyes of the educational
world to the fact that good health
is n Of childhood's greatest assets.
In consonance with this prevailing
spirit we waged an heai.h
campaign during the entire year
bringing with it a very material be-.
terment in the physical condition OF
pupils. Health organizations were
established in the ciassrooms II
daily inspections made. AS an aid
in the campaign, a good deal OF our
English composition work centsred
on health, and many posters were
made illustrating health rules. The
nurses gave temporary treatment y
6,54C cases during the year n
made many visits to homes in fol-
loW-up work.
IAN exceedingly humane and val
liable step was taken which led to
the establishment of a dental clinic,
which was operative during six DAYS
of the week. What this clinic meant
to public school pupils in comfort
health, and, in some degree. in prcg-
ress may be measurably well ap
praised by the statement that 1.SO5
pupils were sent to the clinic fer
treatment"
