The circulation has increased nearly two thousand hooks this year, giving Hinsdale one of the highest circulations per capita in the state. We have about one thousand listed read- ers.

The to-vvn appropriation was cut ten percent and this amount was made up in part by instituting a rental collection which has proved a very successful experiment. All new books are in the free collection after two months at no cost to the library.

A larger amount than usual was supplied by the Amidon fund this year, making it possible to complete the school read- ing lists, purchase more magazines, buy two new encyclopedias, one juvenile and one adult, a set of travel books and a two- volume dictionary. 57

Having a janitor, who is also police officer, has made it much easier to discipline the children, as they haven't been allowed to loiter around the building, and we hope this policy is continued. We are able to keep order inside, but cannot go outside the library.

The librarian has attended a number lof meetings in Massachusetts and Vermont and has become a member of the Western Mass. Library club.

It has been decided to have the desk and tables put into

good condition and it will be necessary to purchase some new chairs as soon as possible. Each year we become a little more crowded. DORIS GARFIELD, Chairman.

HEADMASTER'S REPORT

Hinsdale High School, Jan. 30, 1933.

Supt. Wesley H. Douglass

For the school year of 1931-82 I Avish to report, that the success of Commencement Week was due to the coopera- tion of all members of the Student Boby, of the Faculty and of the towns people as a whole. The Glee Club in particular deserves an expression of appreciation.

The Alumnae banquet was a fitting tribute to the loyalty and history of the school. The ladies upon the committee who planned this banquet surely deserve much credit, as only through their cooperation could the meeting have been pos- sible. The installation of the clock in the main room has been appreciated anc| a time saving of at least five minutes per period for pupil and teachers has been made since the instal- ling of the clock.

The enrollment of September, 1932 is as follows Class Number in class 1933 17 1934 20 1935 30 1936 19 1937 28 1938 43

DEPARTMENTAL HIGH LIGHTS The Manual Training- Department has made medicine cabinets, erected clothes racks and performed many odd jobs around the school buildino'. Many of these jobs would have cost good money if outside labor were hired and it is g'ood practical experience for the boys under a capable leader to do this work. THE DOMESTIC ARTS DEPARTMENT This department has served delicious luncheons and held one fine banquet for the Athletic Association. The boys bought the food and the department set up the banquet. A very ex- cellent Christmas party was held for the children of pre-school age. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT We were pleased to hear that Margaret O'Connor re- ceived the highest mark given in her mid-year English exami- nation at the American International College. GENERAL NEWS An average grade of A—^was awarded Francis Mannis for bis work at the Bentley School of Accounting. We have had no failures in Mathematics or Science from any of our people. GRADUATE ACHIEVEMENTS

As the real proof of value of any educational work is shown by the result, we have reason to note the following John Meany, 1928, graduated from Holy Cross and is studying medicine at McGill. We hear fine reports from Rose Golden, 1930, and Meta McComiick, 1931, w^ho are training in the Cooley Dickinson Hospital Training- School for nurses.

Geraldine Young 1928, is doing private nursing in Hins- dale. :

80

Laura Rim'bold, 1929, is in training in the Pittsfield House of Mercy Nurses Training School.

Jason Sikoski, 1928, is a Senior at New Hampshire State University. Ora Smith, 1930 and Ernest Gould, 1930, are Juniors at New Hampshire State University. Miriam Taylor, 1932, and Roland O'Neal, 1932, are Fresh- men at New Hampshire State University. Francis Mannis, 1930, entered the Bentley School of Ac- counting and Finance.

Ray Thompson, 1931, is a student at Massachusetts State College.

Eleanor Jeffords, 1930, is a Junior at Mount Holyoke Col- lege.

Rose Helen Jeffords, 1929, is a Senior at Simmons Col- lege.

Margaret O'Connor, 1932, is a Freshmen at the American International College in Springfield, Mass. These people listed are only a part of our graduates who have had an opportunity to go away to school. The majority of the others have shown that they have the training to be- come good substantial citizens of their community and are proving this by their every day lives. Hinsdale can be proud of most of her High School Grad- uates.

The following is a list of the graduates of the class of 1932 Bevis, Elna Evans, Norman Bomba, Julia Gove, Reginald Buraczynski, Henry Kerylow, Annie Butler, Florence Kmet, Katherine Carter, William LaChance, Edmund Dickerman, Gladys Majer, Catherine Dodge, Richard Matuszewski, Ludwick 81

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT

To the School Board and Citizens of Hinsdale

I have the honor to submit, herewith, my eighth annual report. Building and grounds: During the summer the usual minor repairs were made in all buildings. At the high school, a Standard Electric Program clock was installed which adds very much to the efficiency of the school by increasing by sev- eral minutes the length of each recitation period. At the Plains School, the old unsanitary privies were re- placed with new and properly located chemical toilets. At the Bridge Street School, in the first grade roo^m, were installed enough new seats to accommodate about half of the pupils. I think that this installation should be completed this year. It has been suggested to the Board by some parents that the school yard at this building be fenced to protect the chil- dren while at play from the hazards of the street traffic. The play ground is entirely too small for a school of this size, but anything looking to the protection of the children from traffic should be given careful consideration. Half of the windows in the Plains and Monument Schools were equipped with copper screen, thus making the work of the schools pleasanter and less distracting to the pupils in late spring and early fall months.

Teachers and Pupils: There is only one change to be noted in the teaching staff. Miss Margaret Coll was granted a leave of absence for one year to recuperate her health and Miss Carolyn Brunei of Concord, New Hampshire, a graduate of Keene Normal School, 1932, was secured to teach the sec- ond grade during Miss Coil's absence. 83

The recent tabulation, prepared by the State Board of Education showing the per pupil cost of education in all towns and cities of the state, shows that the cost per pupil in Hins- dale for both elementary and high schools is considerably be- low the average for the state.

Several times I have called attention to the need of a vocational course for boys in our High School. To have a well rounded high school program, such a step is desirable. I mention the matter again simply to> remind you of the need.

In considering the budget for 1933-1934 whi'ch is to be considered under Article V'lH in the warrant, your School Board has kept in mind the need for every possible economy. Last year, the assessment "showed a retrenchment of over

$1,000. This year a further retrenchment of over $1,200 is in- dicated, a total retrenchment for the two-year period of over $2,200 or nearly 8 per cent, in the total budget. But, leaving out the statutory requirements over which the Board has no control, the real operating costs have been cut over 10 per cent. With school costs as low as they are in Hinsdale, your Board has been very sensitive to the need for reducing the amount of money recommended for your schools about as much as is possible, without danger of undermining their efficiency and morale. Again, I wish to express my appreciation to the School Board, to the teachers and pupils, and to the parents and pa- trons of the scjjo'ols for their loyalty and co-operation, and trust that the same cordiality and harmony may continue to the end that the training and education of our children may be maintained at a high standard through these confused and chaotic years.

Respectfully submitted, WESLEY H. DOUGLASS, Superintendent of Schools.

A CHILD CANNOT GROW UP TWICE

This is the subject of an article by Dorothy Canfield Fish- er in the November number of G-ood Housekeeping. The fol- lowing is a quotation "The old cry, raised in shipwrecks, earthquakes, fires, 'Women and Children First,' inspired and still inspires to reckless, willing self-sacrifice all but the meanest and most cowardly adults. Yet we are in danger now if we ever were. And if any considerable proportion of our race or nation has shown any sign of reckless self-sacrifice to protect the chil- dren of the country from it, at any cost to themselves, I'd like to have somebody tell me. 'Less money' is the modern equivalent of earthquakes, fire, and shipwrecks. Have we made every possible sacrifice in order that children and those who care for them may be the last to feel the prick of less money? I do not need to wait for an answer."

The teachers of America alone can give a permanent an- swer to the present crisis. But what do the politicians say and do? They try to solve this difficulty by saving expenses. They cut down the salaries of school teachers who dare not protest. They close schools. They drop special teachers. They combine classes. They strike at the one group in the land that could teach the country how to order life by proper organiza- tion so that American standards may be maintained and ele- vated with, each generation. They look on education as the to be sacrificed to the god of the storms. But education is an —singing the eternal words of truth—beyond the power of•pett^.men^.to destroy—beyond the power of any gen-

eration to agiiii^eL.'' - ^he. hope of America in this crisis is the increased'maint'enance of education. There is no price too high to paj^ior education. X^ere is no penalty too great to pay for
