tion on dgc's annual school
report.
The school committee recommends
the erection of a. new school building

test .0 the present four separate
reboots, and Superintendent Tucker
also mentions the desiraiblity of such
a change.
Stockbridge during the past year has
spent $1010. 43 for instruction, book
and supplies, etc. The sum of 815, 350
is asked for use during the coming
year.
Superintendent Tucker's report and
recommendations:
To the School Committee:—
Gentlemenz—l have the honor
submitting my first annual report.
Because of the recent date of my lip-
pointment, this report must of neces-
sity be but, little more than a formal
presentation of the financial state
ments of the schools and of the spec
inl departments of music and draw-
ing. I sincerely wish that my prede-
cessor's acquaintance with your
schools were available for the enrich-
ment of so formal a document as an
annual report should be.
it has been with much interest that
my inventory of equipment has been
made: and if the progress of the pupils
for the entire year has been of the
kind observed in the last two months.
there need be no complaint concerning
the proficiency of the teachers and
concerning the excellent spirit, there-
fore, existing in the pupil ranks under
their charge.
The most. satisfactory growth in a
school system is gradual. not spas-
modic; and at the beginning of my
term of servlCe it should be stated
that wholesale overturnings of exist-
ing conditions will not be attempted.
Whetchr is to be done in educational
work is best done through a healthy
growth, and will be carried on from
the status ill which the work is found,
to results, which, it is hoped, parents
and school authorities will welcome.
The importance of drill need not be
emphasized in presenting to the poo-
pic of Stockbridge the needs of their
schools. We nsslllnc their support on
this point and shall insist upon con-
stant drill in the fundamentals of edu-
cation. Parents should cxpcct illt‘ (illiti

Thmbost time to rib the body with
salt when taking a bath is after one
has been in the warm watel for sevc
lal minutes. The pores are then more
open to receive it and impurities are
loosened readily by the pleasant fric~
tion.
Some house when use a strong infuo
sion of tea to clean the painted sur-
faces in their homes.
Don't be discouraged it your first
application of borax about the kitchen
does not drive away the roaches which
are some time found in every home.
So many affirm that persistence in its
use will cause them to disappear alto-
gether that one should give it at tho-
rough trial.
"Harper's Basar” has this recipe for
a dessert for an Easter luncheon:
Sonic 9. quart of thin cream with a cup
of sugar: add a half cup of very strong
black coffee and strain; when cold.

with a spoonful of pped cream; the

A bit of wine put into a clam chow-
der at the moment of serving adds a
most palatable flavor.
Even the bag which accompanies the
linen cult will be of linen and bear the
same design with which the belt. neck-
wear and suit itself are ornamented.
A new way of working the dots with
which so many of the garments and
accessories we wear are decorated is
in the easy Wallachlan style. They
need no padding and as you know are
worked in blanket stitcvb from the
center out.
It is very annoying to have the Can-
ton flannei cover which is often sub-
stituted for asbestos beneath the table-
cloth for economical reasons slipping
about after the tabic,is set or when
putting on the cloth. if a tape were
run about the edge of the flannel it
:ould be drawn taut just. under the
edge of the table and all future annoy
ince avoided.
A neat housewife who thought the
only way to wash the tile on which she
placed the tea pot was to put it
'lodily into to water and cleanse it
with the other dishes. was horrified to
humor that both cloth and table were
lecidedly damp for several hours after
t. had been replaced on the table for
the morning meal. A neat wiping off
loch time it. was used obviated all the
rouble caused by the allover bath.
