Department of School Work<br> George F. McAfee, D. D., Superintendent<br> Rev. Robert M. Craig, Asst. Superintendent<br> 156 Fifth Avenue <br> New York<br><br> Instructions for Compiling Annual Report. <br><br> I. Fill each blank correctly, writing Post Office in full, and plainly. Be careful to give the whole number of pupils, Sabbath school scholars and members of Young People's Societies enrolled, and conversions reported, since April 1st, 1905, and not simply since school opened in the fall of 1905. <br><br> II. Under "Needs for the New Year" make as accurate an estimate as possible of expenses for the year beginning April 1st, 1906, and ending March 31st, 1907. "School Expenses" include not only "Books, Stationery, Desks, etc.", but all necessary outlay for fuel, lights, janitor's service, etc.; and for a boarding school there must also be added food, clothing and other necessary expenses connected therewith. <br><br> III. Under "Repairs and Improvements" describe what is needed in the way of repairs on buildings, both exterior and interior; also amount and kind of furniture and furnishings required for dormitory, dining room, kitchen and laundry; also wells, cisterns, fences, wagons, teams, harness or farm machinery needed in order to equip properly school, home, shop and farm. If any considerable amount of repairs is needed, it would be advisable to have an estimate of cost made by a reliable mechanic. <br><br> IV. "New Buildings." For what purpose? What size? What cost? <br><br> V. The report should be completed and mailed as per addressed envelopes enclosed, not earlier than March 15th and not later than March 18th, 1906.
