Mayor William G. Bradley.

Gentlemen of the City Council:

It was proved without a question of doubt that it was the will of the people that, after serving them as their mayor for six years, that I still continue to serve them another year in that capacity by their nominating and electing me for the seventh time and with the largest majority but one that 1 ever received, without any soliciting on my part, for I did not seek the office or ask a man to vote for me, either at the mayoralty convention or on the day of election, and I therefore appreci- ate it all the more because it came not from one person or a few persons, but from the rank and file of all parties, acting freely. And now I wish to thank my fellow citizens for the honor they have shown me, and more particularly for their ex- pressions of confidence which they still place in me, which I assure you is of the greatest importance and gratification to me and I solemnly do pledge to them and to you, gentlemen of the city council, my best efforts, and, with your assistance, will give to the city the best administration of its affairs that the circumstances will admit of. The past administration has no apology to make and we in- vite the closest scrutiny into the condition of affairs in the past and as they exist today. We could not expect unanimous approval of our every act during the past two years. They have been eventful years for the city of Rochester, as well as strenuous ones for the mayor and every other city ofKcial, still I believe we will be accorded ths credit of having stood for what we considered to be for the welfare of our city, unswerved by hope of political reward, of fear of threats or tauiits of political opponents. Still, on the other hand, the man who always has his own way without dispute must find life terribly monotonous, for one of the joys of existence is in overcoming opposition. This city has reached out aud added a great many improvements in the past two years. In fact, it has been very lavish in its municipal expenditures, all of which, however, they needed very much and are valuable public improvements and are such as our citizens should feel proud of. The demands of a growing city for improvements come a great deal faster than the financial condition warrants. It is particularly so, I am sorry to say, of our own city, for while we are growing in population, we are not keeping up to it in regard to the increase of taxable property, so as to get the necessary funds to be reducing our debt and to meet our running expenses, that we ought to have. I fail to find a city or town in Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts or New Hampshire with the same comforts and conveniences that the city of Rochester has, and about the same number of inhabitants, but has from one to three million dollars more taxable property.

Finance.

The subject of finance is of the greatest importance to our city, for you have expended for permanent improvements in

the past two years, namely : The new city building and its furnishings, $85,500 00 New sixteen-inch water main, 49,000 00 New steel reinforced concrete bridge at North Rochester, 2,000 00

Amounting to $136,500 00 You are growing in population, public improvemenls and conveniences faster than the increase of your income will admit of. You ought to have at least five million dollars' worth of taxable property instead of four million and three hundred thousand, which you have today. It is not clear to your finance committee just what is best to be done, but you have these things now and the conditions must be met. The tendency of the times is to extravagance by individuals, towns, cities, states and nations. The following is a statement of the financial condition of our city as shown by its books :

Financial Statement.

DEBIT.

Outstanding notes, $128,493 88 Accrued interest on notes to date, 2,447 05 Sewer bonds, 52,000 00 Accrued interest on sewer bonds, 910 00 City hall bonds, 65,000 00 Bills approved unpaid, 385 62 Amount due water works on account, 8,195 41 $257,431 96

CREDIT.

Amount due on collector's list, 1007, S 59 97

Amount due on collector's list, 1908, 16,915 47 Boston & Maine R. R. stock, 800 00 $17,775 44

Net indebtedness exclusive of water bonds, $239,656 52 Water bonds outstanding, 170,000 00 Highways.

The question of how to keep our highways in a passable condition and at the same time make some permanent improvements is a matter of great importance to the public. We have had only $9,000 appropriated for our roads for the past two years and it is utterly impossible, with this amount of money to do near what the public demands on our roads and, at the same time, they are justified in their demands for better roads, and it would be very pleasing to your committee on roads, bridges and drains to fix every piece of road that they touch each year in the best possible way if they had the funds to do it with, but they have to distribute the small amount they have to work with to the best advantage they can after looking over the 150 miles of roads. I wish we might have $13,000 to

$15,000 each year in this department; if we had we could better their condition.

Public Library.

The public library continues each year to be of more and more importance to our city. The reading room patronage is

increasing from year to year, and I feel that it is doing a noble work and is a credit our city. For further details I will refer you to the report of the trustees of the library.

Schools.

The question of public schools and how to obtain the highest

and best results is one that has interested the American people from the foundation of our government, and at no time in its history has there been that pressing need of such a high grade

of excellence in its graduates as today, the complex duties of

life requiring every one, so to speak, to be an expert in some line or other in order to insure success in life. The question of sufficient and proper accomodations for our schools is one of great importance to us today, for there has been an increase of thirteen per cent, of children for 1908 over the year 1907. You have added three new teachers and now you must add two more, making five new rooms and teachers, which means you will have to raise more money for the support of schools. But few people outside of those closely connected with the schools realizt; the work necessary to attain the end desired. The demands of this department cause the largest expenditures of any in the city and as the Mty grows the requirements of this department will be more. I think our citizens in general are friends of the public schools. They recognize the necessity of their existence and are willing to give their support and, for the most part, they only ask that they be as efficient as possible and be conducted with due economy.

"Water.

This is one of the most important departments of our city in several ways. Pure water is one of the most essential things for any city's growth and prosperity. The public has been much exercised by the bad condition of the water the past year, while the state analysis of the water, made by the state chem- ist, has shown it to be very clear from impurities that would cause any epidemic of disease. Some of this trouble has exist- ed by reason of the light amount of rain we had in the spring and summer. Again, the superintendent of water, very anxious to better the condition of the water in the early summer, drew the water in the reservoir down six or seven feet in order to get at the lower gate and clean in out. The consequence was, we had no rain and the reservoir did not fill up and very low water was the result all summer. Your superintendent thought he was domg right and probably it wonld have helped it, if there had been rain to fill the reservoir again. If you remember, in the year of 1898 we had a great deal of trouble with the water. Now I look for and hope that it can be made better again as soon as we have the usual supply of water. Fire.

I need hardly say our fire department, under its efficient management, is one of the best. While it has not everything it wants and needs, it is in pretty good shape to take care of a fire. It has exceeded its appropriation the past year but it is not their fault. It was caused by the brush and wood fires which cost the department some six hundred dollars. Further particulars will be found in the chief engineer's report.

Police.

This department I cannot but feel is doing its work in a very satisfactory manner. Notwithstanding we are growing in population and with a great deal of territory to cover, we have not added to the police force, and everyone knows there is no city in the state with the amount of inhabitants that Rochester has today that has so small a police force as we have. I will go farther and say that I do not think, go where you will, you can find a city of its size and with the same facilities in steam and electric roads running in and out of our city, with its streets and alleys as clear from drunken men or its police court records any cleaner than ours. I have been here thirty- three years and the first year could sit in my home and see on Sunday, horse trading, drunken men and women and fights. Now 1 wish to say a word in regard to the night police. Every little while some tax payer will say to me that they are not around at night when wanted. Now I feel it my duty to pro- tect a man when the conditions warrant. To begin with, the two night police commence at eleven o'clock to go their rounds and they have to continue that until four o'clock, rain or snow.

That is about four miles travel for each man. There are seven boxes placed in seven different parts of the city. There is a dial brought to my desk every morning and by it I can tell whether they are on duty or not. If anything happens that either of them misses a wind, he is to tell the janitor why and 9

he writes on the back the reason, so it can be looked up. Neither one of them can get at this dial, so you see they must be on duty or explain why. There has been perfect harmony between the mayor and city marshal and every officer on the force and I am much pleased with the result of the past year.

Janitors and Their Duties.

There are thirteen miles of fire alarm wires, ten miles of police wires and seven police clocks that must be kept in working order. A snow or electrical storm is liable to put either one out of commission at any time and they will have to work nights and Sundays to repair them. There are also 64 batter}' jars in the battery room that have to be looked after twice a da}', two instruments outside, whistle striker, Methodist church, six

other strikers, namely : one chief engineer's house ; one, Co- checo engine house ; one, Torrent engine house ; one, Han- scorn's house ; two at main fire station. Every morning at

8.45 the fire alarm must be rung in to test it ; two boilers to

run and 75 radiators to look after in the winter season ; and the chemical, nine times out of ten, night or day, since the horses have been stabled at the house, is on its way to the fire before the alarm is done blowing. The above, I hold Will Hanscom responsible for. Of course, the other janitor has to help any and everywhere needed, and every lime the tramp room or lockup is used they have to be flushed out thoroughly

with the hose. If not used, it has to be done twice a week. The walks have to be kept clean, and, in fact, a great part of the entire building must be looked after every day, and every time the opera house is used the two janitors have to work un-

til about midnight wiih no extra pay. You have a nice build-

ing, so pronounced by everyone who comes to see it, more

particularly those from out of the city ; in fact you will find it from boiler room to opera house ready to take anyone through

at any time, but it means work, care and expense. You cannot live in a mansion as cheaply as you can in a small cottage. 10

I speak of the work of the janitors for the reason of comments that are thrown out by some whom I felt did not quite under- stand the matter

Financial Condition*.

Now if you will bear with me, I will lay before you, as plain- ly as I can, the situation, and as briefly as possible.

Estimates of School Expenses.

Teachers, :

Percentage, increase over 1907, 13 Estimating the population of the city, from the percentage of the year 1900 and the school census of 1908, we have Population of Rochester today 10,800—11,000.

The most significant fact is the increase of children of school age during the last year of 13 per cent. There are at present in the city three schools having a total registration of over 55 each. They are the third and fourth grades at Gonic and the first and second grades at the Allen school. Such conditions are literally intolerable. Furthermore we have ten room with over forty-five registered. To relieve these conditions we must open at least two new rooms. In the Gonic school there is a vacant room needing only desks and seats to make it ready for occupancy. In the city proper there are no vacant rooms. Moreover a room was taken away from the high school last September for the use of a new seventh and eighth grade, thus hampering the high school very much. The room occupied by the sixth grade at the Allen school is so poorly ventilated and lighted that it is not fit for use as a school room.

The only permanent solution of these difficulties is the building of a new school house. It may be possible to postpone such action another year by refurnishing one or two rooms in the old Upham street building. It must be understood, however, that this would be merely a temporary expedient. Eventually the high school must have two new rooms and the sixth grade room in the Allen school must be abandoned. The new high school building cost S38,950.52 and there are notes out now against it of 811,600.00. Now I think that you ought to pay each year $3,000 of that, and then you would re- tire them all in 1912. :

Deep Sewek Bonds.

Bonded 1896 for S130,000, they mature in 1916. You paj 356,500 each year beside the interest. You raise for that purpose this year On the principal debt, $6,500.00 Interest on the balance not paid of $45,500, 1,592.50 S8,092.50

So you see, those of you who live to see it will have seven to eight thousand dollars a year less to raise on this item alone.

On your new city building bonds, you make the first payment January 1, 1912, of $3,000, for each year to January 1, to 1918, and from January 1, 1919, to January 1, 1926, you are to pay $5,000 each year, and January 1, 1927, $4,000, which wipes out the debt. You see as soon as you get the deep sewer bonds paid it will not be so hard, and in this way of doing this generation is paying for and enjoying their permanent improvements and the coming generation will take it up where this one leaves off and presumably will continue on with improvements. Police Extra.

$1,000 more by reason of the drug store license, being $10 each instead of $200. Where we got $800 in 1907, we got about $50 in 1908, and the police court fines being so much less than they used to be that now we have to appropriate $4,000 for that department. Water Bonds. Bonded 1892 for $200,000.00 Y'"ou have paid since out of the earnings, 30,000.00 $170,000.00 During this time you have also made extensions that cost $59,028.57, which you have paid for also out of the earnings. Now I figure that you can pay $6,000 each year out of the earnings on the bonds and still extend the system as the demand calls for. 13

Now there i? todaj' SI 70,000.00 iu bonds out that mature in

1922, and if you pay the $6,000 each year that I speak of until that time, you will then owe $86,000.00 on the water, which amount I have no doubt will be bonded for a term of years so that the water will pay for itself. Of course if the city should continue to grow and you should have more water takers you would be able to pay faster than the way I have mapped out here, unless some unforeseen things should happen. Now there are but two ways that I know of to get the necessary funds to meet the above expense. You can re-appraise your property and try to make it as near equal to every tax payer as the wisdom of your assessors will admit. If that was to be done it would seem to me there ought to be two assistants elected to assist your regular assessors and to be done in the spring and summer months, and it could not be done in time to help you for this year. Again, you do not know what may be done in the legislature this winter. The other way is to advance the tax rate enough to meet the demands, and when you get ready to do something else you can lower the tax rate at any time. And now, gentlemen, in conclusion, allow me to say that in all of these years that I have been mayor of the city of Roch- ester the uppermost thought in my mind at all times has been to try and do that which seemed to me for the best interest and the good of the city and its citizens at large. While I have made many mistakes, still I have done a great many things that at the time seemed to go against me personally, but I am willing to sacrifice myself to some extent if I can only get fairly good results for our city, well knowing at best I can do but little. I wish at this time to express my sincere thanks to the council of the past year for the courtesy and assistance, to the city clerk, Mr. Worcester, and the assistant clerk. Miss Roberts, on whom I called many times for matters of record and figures, which have at all times been cheerfully given, also to the city solicitor, Mr. Felker, for good advice and watchful- ness over the legal affairs of our city. Now, gentlemen of the city council and fellow citizens, with your assistance I promise you to do the best I possibly can in the coming year for the good of our city and its tax payers.

Report of Chief Engineer ot Fire Department,

To the Honorable Mayor and City Gotincil :

In rendering my report of the Rochester Fire Department, ending December 31st, 1908, would state that there have been

18 bell calls; 18 still alarms, 14 brush fire calls, two at G-onic, two at East Rochester, 10 in city proper.

The amount of property involved was as follows ; Valuation of buildings S65,584, insurance on same S41,200, loss paid

§33,950 ; contents valuation of S60,500, insurance on same $27,125, loss paid S25,175. The forest fires have burned over 350 acres, with the loss estimated $1,250. There have been purchased and added to the equipment, 500 feet two and one-half inch rubber lined double jacket hose, one

deluge set, eighteen Cover's automatic respirators, one fire alarm box. I would recommend a permanently employed driver to stay

at the central fire station for day and night duty, for quick attendance at fires within the city limits, also 1,000 feet rubber

lined double jacket fire hose, also one steam fire engine. In my last report I recommended four new fire alarm boxes and but one has been purchased this season and I would earnestly recom.mend that the other three be purchased this season. The

cost of the fire department for the year will be found in the report of the committee on finance. In behalf of the board of engineers, I will take this opportunity to extend our sincere thanks to all the members of the

fire department for the promptness with which they have discharged their duties during the past year. We would also 43 thank the members of the city governmeut, who have rendered the department any assistance during the yefir. Respectfully submitted H. C. HANSON, Chief Rochester Fire Department.

Instructions to Citizens.

1. Upon the discovery of a fire, notice should be immediately communicated to the nearest alarm box, the keys to 44 which are in the hands of all regular police, and in boxes near each alarm box.

2. Upon the discovery of a fire, or positive information of a fire, break the glass in the key box, take key and unlock alarm box, pull down the hook once as far as it will go (without jerking) and then let go. Shut the door but do not try to remove the key, as it is locked in a trap lock and can only be removed by a release key, which is carried by each engineer, who will as soon as convenient release and return it.

3. All persons giving fire alarms, are requested to remain by the box a moment, and if no clicking is heard in the box pull again ; and if you still hear no clicking, go to the nearest box procure a key and give an alarm from that. Remember that the firemen will come directly to the box which has been pulled, and be sure that some one stays at the box to direct them to the fire.

4. Never pull an alarm for afire seen at a distance. Never touch a box except to give an alarm for fire. Give an alarm for no cause other than actual fire.

Don't give an alarm for a chimney fire.

5. Owners and occupants of buildings are requested to in- form themselves of the location of alarm boxes near their property. Be sure the alarm is promptly and properly given.

Signals.

Two strokes of the bell is the all out signal.

Six strokes of the bell is for a brush fire, or a fire at a distance, where the fire department will be needed.

Report of Superintendent of Water Works for the

Year Ending Dec, 31, 1908,

To the Committee on Water Works

Gentlemen : —The seventeenth annual report of the superintendent of water works is herewith submitted. Water was supplied to the city from the reservoir during the winter and spring up to the first of June when Round Pond was turned on and water from this source was u^ed up to Sept. 12th. Before this date the water had been drawn so low in the pond that it was necessary to open the lower gate at the gate house so as to admit the necessary supply. Immediately after this was done the water showed evidence of algaj to a marked degree. The water was then taken from the reservoir and showed considerable improvement for about three weeks when the supply also began to taste and smell from the same trouble. November 1st the water in Round Pond was tried again but was found to be more objectionable than that in the reservoir and I immediately turned back into the reservoir supply. During the early summer I had drawn the reservoir down seven feet below high water as I thought it might improve the water to change it during this period, but the drouth came and I was unable to fill the same until late in the fall, which condition of affairs accounts for the presence of algfe in the reservoir, which I consider the better source of supply of the two, notwithstanding all talk to the contrary. After the water became objectionable the entire system was flushed out five times, but this did not seem to remove any of the objectionable qualities. 98

The analysis during this time bj the State Board of Health showed the water to be perfectly wholesome for domestic use and entirely free from bacillus coli or disease germs. A treatment of sulphate of copper would probably remove this objectionable feature in the water to a large degree. I should never recommend a filter on this system as the water sheds are on the whole free from contamination and clean, and filtering of water from such water sheds as you now have is entirely un- called for and a waste of money. If any improvements are to be made on this part of the system I ahould recommend that the shores of the reservoir be dug out where shallow, and the entire shore ripraped to a depth of six or seven feet below high water mark and the brook from which the reservoir is filled be cleaned up for at least two miles and the channel cleaned out so the water would have a continuous flow to the intake. This would allow the water to be aerated more or less and remove some of the color which is very noticable at some seasons of the year.

Following is the amount pipe, new service, etc., laid during the year.

Report of Tree Warden,

To the Mayor and City Council at the City oj Rochester:

I have tried to keep the trees in the public highway as free from the brown tail caterpillars as possible and no damage was done by them. But some private lots were badly in- fested and not a leaf was left on the trees the last of June.

Let everybody destroy a nest when they see one, as it means from 150 to 300 caterpillars next summer from each nest. There are a great many people who think that by building

fires in the street, which is very dangerous in a dry time, that

the millers would fly into the fire and burn. But by Supt. Kirkland's report of the work in Massachusetts, I see that they tried light traps around arc lights and over 94 per cent, of the millers caught were male millers, and the experiment was not satisfactory.

There are about fifty dead trees that will have to be removed as soon as possible or they will be dangerous to the public. C. E. GOODWIN,

Tree Warden. 109

Report of Superintendent ot Streets.

To His Honor ^ the Mayor^ and the City Council of the City

of Rochester :

Gentlemen : —1 have tbe honor to submit the annual report of the highway department, together with a list of tools which are now under the care of the street commissioner, for the year ending Dec. 31st, 1908. There has been considerable work accomplished in the outside districts with the road machine this year. The outside roads had been badly washed out by heavy rains, so we had to repair those that were in the worst condition. We gave the best attention possible to the Barrington road, the Swamp road. Ten Rod road, Meaderboro, and Four Rod road, also the road that passes the home of Charles Estes. The sidewalks have received the best attention possible. There have been new sidewalks laid in front of City Hall, one- half of that in front of Hayes and Dodge blocks, also some brick walks laid on Wakefield and Bridge streets. Consider- able repairs were made to sidewalks throughout the city, by the use of cinders, there being 500 loads used.

Surface Sewers.

At East Rochester we built six new drops, viz : Two on Main street, one on Portland street, two on Eastern avenue, one on Highland street. At Gonic we built two drops on Church street. In connecting these drops with the main sewer we used 20 or 30 feet of 8-inch pipe for each drop. There have been five miles of bushes cut this year. 113

Report of Library Trustees,

To the Honorable Council of the City of Rochester:

Gentlemen : —The trustees of the Rochester Public Library herewith submit their fifteenth annual report, including the librarian's and treasurer's report, for the year ending Decem- ber 31st, 1908.

During the year there has been no change in the policy or management of the library, but it has been the endeavor of the trustees to meet the demands of the public. This is shown by the fact that we are now supplying each month three branch libraries. The East Rochester library with 200 volumes. The Gonic library with 400 volumes, and in June we established a branch library at Meaderboro with 50 volumes. That the aims and resources of the library are being better understood and used is indicated by the establishment of the branch libraries, and also in the increase of the circulation over last year of 6,550 volumes. The interest taken by the public in the library is evident by the following comparison, the 1907 report of the Dover library contains 35,270 volumes, the circulation was 55,813. The Rochester library contains 12,533, the circulation 1908 was 46,237. Considering the population of both cities it is evident from the circulation that the people believe in the library. During the year 481 volumes have been purchased. The trustees would have bought more books, but in order to keep the building in repair we had to reduce the appropriation for books and make some repairs. Painting and puttying the windows, repairing the slate on the roof and other repairs.

But as one has said, "The royal road to culture is through a well stocked library," we hope to appropriate more money for 205 books the coming year. Hut we wisb to remind the public that the Rochester Public Library is without the bequests of other public libraries. The only bequest our public library has had is the $1,000 of the Jennie Farrington fund, the interest is used for the purchase of Juvenile books. In some public libraries the donors specify the particular class of books they desire purchased with the income of their bequest, and others give for general purchases. We trust that some of our citizens will remember the public library and donate a sufficient fund to equip the library with good reading and with the latest and best lists of reference books. The trustees wish to express their thanks to Mr. C. A. C. Hanson for the four volumes of the Genealogy of New Hamp- shire given in memory of his father Dominicus Hanson and also to the Rochester Woman's Club, who, by their donation made it possible to secure for the library the pictures of the Library Art Club, and to all others who donated books and relics for the historical room. In conclusion the trustees would request of the Honorable Council that they continue the appropriation of $3,000 for 1909 for during the coming year the insurance on our books will have to be renewed for three years, and we desire in some degree, to satisfy the demand of the public for good literature and also to make the public library an able adjunct to our pub-

lic schools by purchasing the latest reference books. The trustees are gratified at the increase in circulation and attendance and wish to express their appreciation of the attention shown the patrons of the library by the librarian and her assistants, during the year. JOHN YOUNG, Secretary. 206

To the Trustees of the Rochester Public Library:

Gentlemen : I gladly submit to you, in this tifteenth annual report, the record of a busy year. Busy not only with its larger circulation, its additions, its agencies, its work with the children and the schools, but with its increasing reference work and its attempts to satisfy the demands made upon it. At the beginning of 1908 the library numbered 11,668 volumes. During the year, 176 volumes have been added by binding periodicals, 246 volumes have been received as gifts, 79 purchased from the interest of the Jennie Farrington fund and 402 purchased from the general fund, the total number of accessions 903. Thirty-three volumes have been discarded because unfit for use, four lost and one destroyed on account of exposure to contagious disease, making the entire number of accessioned volumes in the library at this time 12,633.

The classes represented as follows :

Fiction, 207

Cifculation at Libfary- 208

The resignation of Mr. Levi Meader at the Gonic agency was very much regretted, but his successor, Mr. George H. Marsh, has taken up the work with much enthusiasm. During the year 1150 books have been sent to Gonic and the reports show that 1529 have been given out and 28 new cards issued.

Circulation at Gonic. 209 decorative nature to beautify the room. Indeed the kind offices might be extended to other rooms in the building.

Although no record is kept of books or magazines given out in the building an attempt is made to keep the number of readers and students. The number for 1908 was 11,787, 2121

more than last year. This gives but little idea of the extent

to which the rooms have been used for it is safe to say that a large number of the readers are never counted. The reference work has been a large part of the duties of

the year. Often the students have filled every chair in the room and then have overflowed into the reading rooms. This has been almost entirely personal work and hands and brains

of the entire staiif are kept busy, explaining the uses of the reference books and hunting up stray bits of information. It

is one of the uses for which the library exists and the result is worthy of the effort. The additional reference books purchased have been very much appreciated. The larger part of the work with the schools has been done with the pupils. Only 332 books have been given to teachers for school use. A beginning has been made during the last few years, toward a historical and genealogical department. Some valuable gifts have been received and a few things purchased. The genealogy of New Hampshire given by Mr. C. A. C. Hanson, in memory of his father is a most valuable acquisi- tion. Mr. Stephen D. Wentworih, has added to the collection an old account book used in connection with the ''Wolfe

Tavern" which at one time was located on Haven Hill and is

said to have been the first tavern in Rochester. This is of

great interest locally, because of its old names. Mr. John Meserve has presented many interesting old things, among them a sword cane, bearing the initials "G. W." Tradition

says, that it was owned and used by George Washington, also an Indian spear head, which he ploughed from the ground near

Gonic hill, and several old papers and books. Mrs. F. C. Hayes of Wolfeboro has given an old paper. Cases are very 210

much needed where such things can be carefully preserved. Il seems a pity that all the interesting relics might not be col-

lected from the attics of Rochester before it is too late and placed in the library.

The Rochester Woman's club have made it possible again this year for the library to have access to all the pictures of the Library Art club. These are both instructive and enter- taining and would be greatly missed. Many useful and valuable gifts have been received aside from those already men-

tioned, as it would be impossible to mention them individually

your attention is called to the list appended. In addition to the regular work of the library and the duties which each day has brought forth, an inventory of the entire library has been taken by the accession number. This has been a long piece of work and has meant the handling of every book in the library but the result has beeu very satisfactory. All but eight books have been accounted for, errors have been detected and a new system for keeping discarded books inaug- urated. Never in the history of the library has the work gone on so smoothly or with quicker or better service. The public has been courteous, patient and appreciative and tbis has served to encourage and inspire to greater zeal and more untiring effort. It costs somebody something to furnish these privi- leges which are often accepted with such thoughtless indiffer- ence and a simple thank you means much to the tired attend- ant. I wish at this time to speak of the splendid work of the assistants and acknowledge my indebtedness to all who have assisted in the work of the library during the year, especially those who so kindly helped during the long illness of one of the assistants. I also wish to thank the trustees for the conveniences which they have provided for carrying on the work and for their courtesy and encouragement. Respectfully submitted, LILLIAN E. PARSHLP:Y, Librarian. Rochester, N. H., December 30, 1908. 211

SCHOOLS.

To the School Board of Rochester : There aie many matters that claim atteutiou in this report. Two subjects, however, fu-e of such preeminent importance that they should not be dwarfed by having included with them matters of much less moment. I refer to the growth of the schools and the consequently heavily increased expenditures in the school department of the city budget.

Each year persuant of the slatules of the state, ;i census of children of school age is taken by enumt^rators employed in the city. In 1907 the census showed a total of 1485. In 1908

it showed 1675, an increase of approximately 13 per cent, in one year. The average membership of the city schools in

1907-8 was 1117. At present it is 121S, an increase of 8 per cent.

This increase is and should be a source of pride to us and to

Rochester. At the same time it confronts us with a serious problem. There are, at present, in the city three rooms having a total registration of over fifty-f5ve each. There are ten with a registration of over forty-five each. I wish that I had at my command words that might give you some idea of the relative quality and quantity of instruction re-

ceived by a pupil, who is one of 55 under the tutelage of a single instructor. 1 need not refer to the strain on the teacher herself in attempting to keep her pupils on a par with those of her colleague, who has but 35 or 40. There have been within my experience in this city three instances where a teacher has 6

broken down under the strain and retired in discouagement and invalidism. And I should like to express right here my tremendous ad- miration for the teachers, who without a whine or complaint grapple with the problems we put before them and achieve the

success that is theirs. Now for practicable measures looking to the relief of these most pressing needs. The overcrowding of the mixed third and fourth grades at Gonic will be remedied when you have fitted out the 6th room in that building. When that is done the facilities will be sufficient to accomodate the pupils there for some years to come,

the more so on account of tlie large number who leave school at the earliest age possible. In East Rochester, by the establishing of a new room last September, you have provided ample room for present needs, but the remarkable increase in the population of Ward one, as shown by last fall's census, is a warning that may have to be heeded in 11) lU.

In Meaderboro, the increase, though small, is serious as in that school the work of the entire eight grades is done by one teacher. I recommend that the mininum age of entering this school be reduced to 5 years and that pupils be allowed to enter only on alternate years, thus eventually reducing the number of grades taught in any one year fiom eight to four.

In the cit}' proper conditions are more serious. The Maple street school is already filled to its capacity. The School street building had so many pupils last September that some had to be transferred to the Allen building where there are fifty- six in the first garde and forty eight in the second. It appears from these figures that for these grades two new rooms must be provided. Moreover, the sixth grade room in the Allen school is unfit for use because of poor light and ven- tilation. Again, as the principal points out in his report, more room is needed for the high school. This makes a total of four rooms that should be provided for another year in addition to those already in use. This means a new building. Such a building

is of course out of the question for a year but it must be ready for occupancy in September, 1910. In the meanwhile by utilizing the Upham street building and by continuing the cramping of the high school, we must make shift to house the pupils as best we may. Now as to finances. The largest item of expense is teachers' salaries. At present under the rules of the board these salaries are graded according lo length of tenure of office beginning with S360 and increasing yearly until S450 is reached. I should like to see the minimum raised to S370 that being an even SIO a week. I should recommend that the board investi- gate and adopt a system based not wholly upou tenure but at least partially upon mej-it. A considerable increase in ihe item must be had this year to meet the expense of the new rooms established. These new- rooms will also cause an increase in the fuel item. I would call attention here to the resumptiou of the practice of paying for the winter's coal out of one year's appropriation instead of carrying part over into the following year. It will be noted that the items of incidentals and books and supplies have been much smaller this year than before. This low cost cannot be contiaued in the case of books, and supplies, without seriously crippling the schools. I hope however with better care taken of books already in use we may still keep this item below $1,500, the figures of two years ago. In conclusion I will say that the expressed purpose of the school board of keeping expenditures within the sum appropriated, has been kept and that we finished the year with every

bill paid and with a small balance. Respectfully submitted, ANDREW JACKSON, REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE HIGH SCHOOL.

To Mr. Andrew Jackson, SivpQrintendent of Schools: The total registration for the year ending June 1908, was 184 pupils. At the close of the fall term of the present year the same number of pupils had been registered, and the attendance during that term was 97 per cent of the average membership. In order to maintain this comparatively high attendance two things are necessary. First, the co-operation of parents is needed in the effort to keep pupils in school.

Second, teachers should not lose sight of the fact that it is their duty to make school work attractive. It is a well known fact that pupils learn most readily when their attention is fixed on the lesson. Undivided interest and good progress go hand in hand with regular attendance at school. There are few matters of more vital importance to the management of school work, than sweeping changes in the teaching force. This problem, confronted us at the beginning of the year. Of those teachers who were in the school last year Mrs. Allen, alone, remains. To her is due in no small measure the smoothness with which the work of this year has started. Her vital interest in the work of the school has appeared in kind suggestions, in prudent advice and in the influence of a personality which makes for good in every pupil who comes under her instruction. Four of the six new teachers come here without experience. Mr. J. D. Drew, a graduate of Rhode Island State College, has the work in the Science department, and has charge also of the school athletics. Mr. Roland E. Chesley, of Dartmouth, suceeds Miss Myrtle Young 9

in the first two years work in Rhetoric and English composi- tion. Mr. Chesley has assisted by organizing a school Glee Club. Miss Miriam Fifield, of Mt. Holyoke College, comes to the work in French and Latin. Miss Dorothy Fitts, of Dorchester, (Mass.,) succeeds Mr. A. W. Wing in the Commercial department. Miss B. T. Lull t<^aches Latin and

German. Miss Lull is a graduate of Mt. Holyoke, and has studied in Germany. Her preparation enforced by previous experience as a teacher makes her especially well fitted for her work in the school. We have in the High School six members of the class which was graduated last year. At first thought this fact may seem to indicate a favorable condition. If this school were equipped with teachers and courses for study beyond that offered regular

pupils, and if graduates not contemplating a college course, would select studies in special preparation for business they might profit by a fifth year in the High School. But for the pupil who intends to enter college and who comes back to review woik which he should have done properly during his course, such study seems a needless waste of time. Moreover

this loss it not confined to the fifth year alone. During preceeding years the pupil feels that he will be graduated with his class on an implied condition that he return and make up

deficiencies. This state of affairs, so far as it exists, is unquestionably wrong. By a reasonable amomnt of study for four years the average pupil can get that preparation which will enable him to take up profitably the work of a college course. In view of the fact that many of our pupils have not kept

their woik up to the requirement for each year, it has seemed

best to neglect social functions. During the fall term the High School held but one entertainment, and that required little preparation. A debating club consisting of members of the High School holds a meeting once in two weeks for practice in parlimentary rules and debating. Living questions are discussed. We realize the need of drill in public speaking and 10 the fitness of such training in High School work. Until the beginning of the second term of this year no part of our schedule has been devoted to this exercise, but opportunity has been given in the English classes for speaking before the class, and among the ??enio)s, work in systematic debating has been conducted. During the fall term the High School received an appropriate gift in the form of a picture for the Assembly Hall. This gift came from the class of 1907, and was formally presented to the school by the President of that class. Interest of this kind which the alumni show in the school cannot be too highly appreciated.

An effort is being made to gather data concerning the occupation and progress of our graduates. The purpose of this movement is to stimulate those who have left as well as hose who are now in school. It is hoped that such data may bring those who are now in active life into closer relation with our present interest and this insures better prospects to those twho are about graduate. A word should be said here in regard urgent needs in the High School. Some slight changes in the Courses of Study should .be made before the beginning of another year. The State Department requires us lo have for school use reference books which are not found in the school or in the Public Library. They should be provided at once. I wish to thank the School Committee, the Superintendent, and my fellow teachers for earnest support and many helpful suggestions. F. L. THURSTON, Principal. Rochester, N. H., Jan. 1909. :

Classmates, school for us has ended, Four long years together, passed, Years of joy with labor blended. Now we leave them for life's tasks. As our thoughts turn toward the future, Which in mystery's veiled from sight. May the paths which lie before us. Each and all be ever bright. May the lessons learned in school days. Ever keep us in the right. And fond memories cling around them, Cheering us with glad delight. Now the hour has come for parting. Let us lift our hearts above. Praying God to guide and keep us In the ways of truth and love. .
