Book synopsis

Excerpt from Annual Reports of the Town Officers of Fitzwilliam, N. H. For the Year Ending February 15, 1903 Good books and abundant supplies are to the teacher what modern machinery and plenty of sharp tools are to the mechanic. Beginning with the lowest grades, children should be taught to take care of their books. As much patience will be needed as in teaching arithmetic. A good deal of damage done is simply the result of ignorance. Pupils need to be shown many little things, for example, how to open a new book for the first time without injury to the binding. They should be directed and encouraged to report any mishap, such as the tearing of a leaf, as soon as it occurs. If every teacher's desk were supplied with repairing materials, the book could quickly be mended. There would be considerable direct saving and the example set the pupils could not fail to have its effect. A pupil who has abused a book never ought to be given a good one in its place unless he pays for it. A child who, on the other hand treats the property loaned him as he should is entitled to books that are in good condition. It is desirable to have an inventory taken every year. In this, the condition as well as the number of the different books should be stated. It would show just where all the books were and prevent some needed in one school remaining unused in another. It would also lead to a distribution according to the needs of the different schools. Without such a system, that teacher is likely to fare best who importunes loudest.
