BROWN r REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN Details in respect to the work accomplished will be found in the several renarts of the officers concerned. Salaries The Selectmen have recommended material salary increases for the year 1920, The figures are beliet,ed to be conservative and to be particularly deserved by reason of the fidelity of all town employees during the harassing compensation conditions grMring out of the well intentioned, but poorly executed, effort to increase salaries at the J919 Nlarch meeting. great deal of energy has been rewired to maintain a suffi- cient number of laborers in the Hip-hway Department. Prac- tically all of the work laid out at the March meeting has been completed. The sixjfoot section of the Spling Street Drain from near Main Street to Marion Road is finished as well a,� the four-foot section in Broadway Extension. There remains a short connecting four-foot section and the eighteen-inch branch in Common Street. The Superintendent of Streets is to be congratulated can so nearly completing his program. In the City. of Ne-A ton during the bast year it has ixemie necessary to abandon home organized work on account of the difficulty of obtaining labor and to have recourse to contractors. Traffic dangers require additional officers in the Police force and the two-platoon system adopted by the Town in the fall will require a material addition to the personnel of the Fire Depart., ment. North Beacon Street That portion of this street bath-�rcctr School 'Street and the bridge lies on the ground of the United States Government and the right +of the 'Town rests in a revocable permit from the Secretary of War. This permit reserves to the War Depart- 13 14 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT meat the right of access or any purpose across the highway to the government land between North Beacon Street and the rig.►er. Early in, the sun7sner, the Chief of Ordnance directed the Cem- ' manding Officer of the Arsenal to extend a railroad across. North Beacon Street for the purpose of establishing a dump and car storage, on the land between the street and river. Vigorous representations made to the Chief of Ordnance through Congress- man Dellinger postponed action in the matter and instructed the commanding officer of the Arsenal to confer with the Chair- man of the Metropolitan Park Commission and the Chairman of the Selectmen. A very happy solution was effected by an agreement in which the War Department iiqll release to tiie Commonwealth all of land including North Beacon Street be- tween the northerly line of that street and the river in exchange for a corresponding area of Park land north of Arsenal Street. At the same time the legislature provided by a bill introduced by Air. Monk to pay 33D,000 to the Town upon the completion of the transfer. ' 'lie necessary papers have heen drawn by the Park Cor='ssion and are awaiting action by the War Depart- -vent. Arlington Street Widening This matter was referred to the Selectmen at the last annual .neeting, and d.uriiig the year progress his been made in jecon- ciling the various interests involved,, which include the Hood Rubber Company, who Have offered to give over 40,000 square feet of land which they control, the County Commissioners, the Boston and Maine Railroad, the Public Service Commission, the Cainbiidge Water Board and ethers. A complete report on this matter Tvill be made at the annual town meeting. Overhead Wires on North Beacon Street Follov,ing conferences, the Edison Company devised a elan and appropriated money for removing the remaining pales and overhead iiires on this street. The coartesy of this company in complying with the request, of the Selectmen is a,pprecinted. REPORT or SELECTMEN 15 Common Victuallers The overwhelrrdng defeat at the annual i-neeting of the Pro- posal to license Sunday sales in fruit, soda and confectionery has caused the Sel.ectment to refuse all doubtful cases seeking common victuallers' licenses. Insurance With money provided at the special meeting in the fall of the year, insurance has been placed covering 80% of the Value of town property-on the basis of the new appraisal. Betterments It is believed that the time has come for completing the building of streets in Fossland. This development is in a criti- cal condition and for the effect on the; Town it is the part of wisdom to clew up a sore; spot in one effort. School Street Nearly twenty years ago the Chief of Ordnance approved the use of a, strip of government lard to in effect widen School 5trceL from Arsenal Street to North Beacom Street. Through the courtesy of the Commanding Officer of the Arsenal the re- quest of the Selectmen to have the right of use Properly es- tablished by the Secretary of War has been approved and for- warded to Washington for action. Almshouse The itima.tes are well cared for and contented. A general improvement was made by painting the al-mshouse btdllding, and slating and repairing roofs of barn and shed. No unusual repairs rill be necessary during the coming year. New Form. of Town Meeting The Snlcctmcli have given their earnest attention to carrying out the provisions of the Act adopted by the Town at the Nov- ember election and provided for representative town meeting. Part of this Nvarlc has boen that of publicity in order that every voter may be made aware of his rights and duties. It is believed that the matter of change in the a.dministrativc sick of towil ,-overnment mcay*well have speedy attention for the change in government cominittee. It is indeed, an izaconlTnous situation to have sorne fort* selected officers each. uadepcndent and only subordinate to a general plRn by cnur'tel v The legislature is considering a general acts for consolidating to-wn departments which should Drove an interesting study. +CHAR.LES NL ABBOTT, CURTIS W, BIXBY, 11-I;1N 17.,LL W, PATTENT.

As the legal adviser of the Town and its various departments, I have endeavored to so perform my duties as to best assist in orderly goveniment and safeguard the interests of the Town and its citivens. All claims against the To-wri have been referred to me, and in all Court actions my appearance has been entered as Counsel for the Town. Many opinons have been given to the various departments as to their powers and duties, and all contracts and surety bonds have been drafted or ap- proved. I have drafted such By-Laws and regulations as it has been thought Ni ise for the Town to accept, and have obtained the approval of the Attorney General to several Icy-Lars. During the year I have drafted and presented to the General Court several important Bills -which have become enacted into lays. My position as the Representative in the Legislature, in addition to being the CoLlnsel of the Town, has been of con- siderable convenience and help in bringing about these special laws. SoIlle of these laws sliould be mentioned in this report, to wit: The la«r providing fc r precinct voting and representative town meetings marks a very decided change from the long es- tablished method of conducting the legisiative functions, of the government, aTid has been accepted by the citizens, and during the coming year Nvill be put into actual operation. It is expected that this new methGd of holding town meetings will prove of benefit and be satisfactory. The act proV ding for the listing of polls by a listing board, pkaccs the Tovrn in the class with the cities of Boston, +Cliclsea, and Cambridge, and it may be said that Watertown becomes the first Town to list its polls by this method. An important special act was cuacte€i -which provides for arm interchange: of land be- tween the Commonwealth and the United States. All the land `77 `8 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT lying south of the Arsenal, between School Strut and the Charles, River and North Beacon Street bridge, is to be ceded to the Common-wealth ley the Federal Government, and an equal amount of land, north of Arsenal Street,now a part of the Metro- politan Park reservation, is td be granted in return to the United States by the Conini mk ealth. Upon the exchange- being com- pleted, tbu whole area lying; east of School Street and south of the ,Arsenal is to be under the control of the Coinanonwe-alth, and the part of North Beacon Street, lying in thatarea, includ- ing one half of the North Beacon :street bridge, passes into the control of the Park Board, and for all future tirne is to be main- tained entirely by the N-letropralitan Park District, Also when the interchange is completed the Commonwealth is to pay thu Town g3f`X00 toward the cost of construction of North Deacon Street recently completed. Many deeds, releases, easements, and saber like documents have been drafted by me, and several Land Court actions have had my attention, and I have appeared in behalf of the Town. .Tearing the year the cases of .Almira T. CooIc and of Mary Lam- bert, for injuries claimed to have been received from defective highways, have been settled to the satisfaction of the Town. The case of Jelin Shields, for the payment of a bonus, was tried and decided in favor of the Town; wi d a settlement has been effected in accordance With the judgement of the Selectmen in the case of Exuma C. Ilartford, for land dwna.ges resulting from a sewer taking, and with '+Iary B. Home, for damages alleged to have been received from unlawful. drainage into the cellar of her building on Main Street, known as .Barnard black, Tlie appeal of Jahn J. llIurphy, under the Civil Service: Law from the de- cision of the Board of Selectmen of 1918, removing him from his position as a fireman, .vas tried in the District Court and he was reinstated by order of Court. All the appeals of the Oakley.- Country Club frorn alleged excessive assessments upon its property, have been disanissed, Pending Litigation, There are now pending against the Town the follon ing actions and suits;- REPORT or TOWN COUNSEL 29 1. Anna Hamlet, action for injuriesclaimed to have been received by reason of a defect in Pleasant Street. 2, Benjamin l-I. McElroy and Joseph McEIroy, for damages sustained while traveling in an automobile on Galen Street on August 18, 1916 The Boston Elevated Railroad Company, whom I believe to be responsible for the condition of Galen Street, and whom I believe is liable for tho accident, has been summoned in to defend these eases. 3. Simpson Brothers Company, a suit in the Superior Court for alleged daznag+es clauned to be dtie to the surface drainage of the Town entering the cellar of the building occupied by it can Main Street. 4. Cases of Stephen Kavafian, Khatchadoor Noroian, and I;lonabccl Bo;lrasian, for laid damages due to the estalrlishinZ3 of the building; line can Bigelow Avenue. From the fact that; the said building line has been discontinued,it is my opinion that the damages claimed in these snits will be merely nominal. The petition of Esther M. Dolan vs the Town to register the title to land on Spring Street, and claimed to be the property of the Town by Virtue of tax titles, I have tried before a.master, and exceptions'a.re nD w pe ading to his report. . 6. In behalf of the Town, I have brought action against the Tpt�m of Maynard, tender the Laws for money expended under the Poor Relief Statutes and Mothers' Aid. Statutes, in the care and aid to one Annie N-urci and children. 7. 'There are also pending, suits in the name of the Collector of Txxes against Marjorie X. Colby and Nfary A. Nally for un- paid taxes oat personal property. It has been my purlaose to assist in every way in the administra- tion of they affairs of the: Town strictly in accordance with the Laws, and I have been willing to co-operates with all departments sea that fe-,v mistakes shotzld be inade. Respectfully, WESLEY E. MONK Town Caunsel. REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE To the Cilizo s of 11 atertcrwn The estimates and re guests for aj)prol.)ritttiorts sulmnitted by the several Town Departments together 'With those asked for iti the Warrant for this year amounted in all to one nullion one hundred forty-sip thousand seven hundred seventy-three and twenty-two one-hundredths (1,146,r 3.2 ) dollars. Our Committeej after careful consideration, recomniends a budget which calls fc r the appropriation of one million, one hun- dred fifteen thousand, l;wo hundred forty-eight and twenty-two one-hundredths (I,115,248.22) dollars the larl cst total. ever reported to a Town Me sting in Watertown. While the war lasted m tiny nccded public improvements could not be 'under- taken. Now that peace has colne these delayed projects crowd upon us. Includul in them are the Hosmer School addition, the completion of North beacon. ;Strwt, and the Spxuil; Stieet Drain: These items, together witli the proposed purchase of land for an athletic field and other gcncral school purposes in front of the High and Hosmer Schools, will represent an out- lay of tree hundred cil;ht thousand (308,000) dollars. State and County taxes will total one hundred thirty-six thousand (136,000) dollars at least. Interest and Town Debt will add ono limidred forty-eight thousand (1118,000) dollars morc.

About all that the Town can do under the ciremnstances is to logic cheer[Ul -Lnd pay tile, bills. Debt and Borrowing Capacity Meanwhile these: figures need not startle: us. The fnancW affairs of the Toi%gi were never in better shape. We have a borrowing ca-pacity today of two hundred four thousand so FINANCE COMINU1TEE REPORT 31 (204,000) dollars inside the debt limit. The report of the Treasurer shores that the Town debt has increased only ten thousand (10,000) dollars in ten ye--,rs. Meanwhile the popula- tion has increased more than one-third and our yearly budget; has nearly doubled in the same period. We have had our fair share of public improvements during that time. This indicates good financing and helpful co-operation an the part of all who have been connected with our municipal goverriment. If the Torn can show as good a record at the end of the next ten rears under a supposedly improved form of government, there r;gill be 110 regrets.

Our borrowing capacity than on April 1 would be fifth:-eight thousand Me hundred twelve (58,112) dollars and on INlay 1 eighty-two thousand one-hundred twelve (82,112) dollars — adequate for all present needs, Spring Street Drain One of the large items approved is the appropriation for the construction of the Spring Street drain so called.. For many years, after every heavy rainfall, Spring Street from Common Street to Palfrey Street has been flooded by the averflow. from Treadaway Brock. The proposed drain, extending from the Outfall .brain at the louver end of Spring Street to Malrion, Road with easterly and westerly branches which include the territory as far east as Bailey Road and Boylston Street, and as far rest FINANCE COMMITTEB REPORT as Lexington Street and the Hocting House Hill Section to the north, ixill salve one of our last big drainage problems. Hosmer School The long-delayed con8truction of the addition to the Hosmer School is approved and it is hoped this work may be begrun and completed at an early date. It is recommended that the School Committee study the need of better accommodations for small children in the fouler grades nearer their homes in the various sections of the Town. Some of them now travel great distan= across railroad tracks and over highways not free from dangers. No one Nvants to take the. responsibilityr for Nv11 t rnil;ht happen to trend. Increases is Pay Increases in pay are recommended for nearly every Town e, ployee from department leads down. Wages mast rise with living, expenses and in accordance With the laws of supply and demand. A municil)a1ityr should expect to pay as much at least as priVa.te business for the mme grade of employment, due allowance being made for municipal pensions, compensation for injuries, vacations ki ith pay, etc., where these are provided, as well as the con4itions under which the work is r1one. The general plan for increases has been carefully worked out and we belie-v e that it will stand the test of fairness to all. Officials and others who take their demands "to the floor of the Tmim Mwting" are :seldom justified in their action. To grant their particular request may seem at the time of little conse- tuencc, but the difficulty is that in doing so the whole flan is disarranged, salaries are thrown out of their proper proportion to each other, and much injustice results. General increases for full-time employees, as recommended, range above or below one hundred (100) dollars, according as the work or responsibility has increased, or as their duties and salaries compare with that of rather employees, Having in mind also how all have fared in previous increases. 361 WATEXTOW-M TOWNT RE PORT Police, Fire and Wire Departments Chiefs of Police and Fire are recon-uriended for an increase of one hui-ldred seventy-five (175) clollars each, the Captain of Fire and the Lieutenants of Police one hundred sixty (160) dol- lars each, to corresT)ond as nearly as possible with the ki -icreases of one hundred sixty (160) dollars (rate of four (4,00) dollars per day) granted to Patrolrncn and Firernen. fnspector of Pales and NNTires is rcoornmended for an increwse of soventv five (75.Ofl) dollars giving him the same salary as the Chiefs of Police and Fire — one thousand eight hundred and severity_ five (1875)dollars, His salary w&s increased three hundred (306) dollars last yeak, and theirs two hundred (200) dollars. The new schedue for Policemen and Firemen 91'ves a salary of one thousand three hundred Sixty (1360) dollars for the first twelve months of service, Guid one thousand four hundred sixty (1460) dollars thereaf ter. Spacial officcrs are figured at three and seventy-five one- hundredths (3,75) dallats per day. 'Department Heads and Clerks Salary of the Inspector of Buildings is placed on same level with that of Inspcetor of Piwaibing., who is not recommended I L% for an increase. The work in both depart=nts has fallen off greatly, due to war conditions, and the prospect for the present year does not indicate a busy season. Superintendents of Streets, Water and Cerneteilles are each recommeiided for increases of $100, the two former having re- celved s2 A) raises last .rear, and the, latter IOO. For Auditor and Treasurer an increase of $150 each is recom- mended, and Town Clerk $100. First clerks in the various offices are rated from 859 0 '8050 according to their responsibility, character of work and length of service. Town Laborers Town iaborers ask for a wago of .154.00 per day. A conference was hcicl with representatives of the men and an c�,ndcavor made to colllj)roraise with them on a 3econunendation of $3.75 par day and time and a half for overtline, Only one municipality FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT 35 that we lmow of—Quincy,— pays its lal�rers $4.00 per day, acid that is due to war conditions and the prox-imity of the F are River Shipyards. Doston pkys its labom-rs M.00 per day; Newton, Carabridge, 111�-Altham, Belmont, Dedham, Wellesley, Needham, Brookline, 'Mefrose, $3.25 per dav; Arlington,Malden Medford, Newburyport, Salon, IV' chester, Weymouth, S.15D per day-, Springfield, $3.52; Beverly, :53.54. Unless same com- nitinity has advanced its rate within the past few weeks tbem is none higherexcept Quincy. At the beginning of last year the rate in Mlatertow n was 83.00; in -March a bonus of 25c per day was voted for all who would remain through the year; on jury I a raise of 25c per day w a s granted;on January I of this year a permanent increase to $3.60 was made; and now Nvith, the ap- proval of the Selectmen, a further increase to A.3.75 per clay is recommended. Ire view of the fact that this wage %k.-ould place Watertown aliniost at the very top of the scale. bee-ausc also of the tremendous amount of street sewer and drain construction that has been provided for in our recoin-mendations this year; and the added fact that the market will soon be floode(l N�ith unskilled labor released froin war work, we believe that our efforts to bung about an ad*ustment on the basis of, S3.7h per day should be appreciated and approved by the Townspeople and by every true friend of labor. Unreasonable demands must -result in the =rtaihnent or postponement of 3-nany desirable public bnprovernents which would insure steady einployinent to a large force of men. School Salaries School teachers and principals have petitioned for a general inermise in saInries, and the establishment of minimum and may rates. Their request impressed our comiTuittee, as just and reasonable—so much so that the recon-vnendations of the School Conunittee were returned to them for revision to meet both the spirit and letter of the teachers' petition. The new maximum recommended—$1800 for men, 81400 for women teachers in the High School; and $1100 for grade teachers; to be approached at the rate of 950 per year boginning September 1, 1919, with an extra 550 bonus for the first half of this year, gives every regular full-time teacher a ,590 increase this vear, and 36 �-ATrRTow N TOWN REPORT the assurairce of a, fixed advancement until the maximuni is reached. This should be an incentive to the highest grade of service. Janitors' salaries as reccimnended by the School Committee seemed to be based on no definite plan. Our suggestion pro- vides for a gencra.l increase of from 6% to 10 ,��, and a re-classi- fication designed to place all on a fair anti equitable basis, having due regard for hours of employrnent and the particular conditions under which each man works. According to this flan the high- est salary Maid to a janitor for day school work would be I 10--- a figure that does not suffer in comparison with the salaries paid to teachers, The first janitor of the 1-1igh School would receive this amount, in addition tc his night school pay. Other janitors who care for two large school buildings would be paid at the sainc rate. For other large buildings a flat rate of $1.150 is rcc- oTnnierided. Salary of the Superritendeat For the salary of the Superintendent of Schools Nve are asked by the majority of the School Coll-iinittee to approve a recom- mendation of 12)&AO—an increase of ')0 above the amount asked for by the School Committee and granted last year. For efficient pert'ision of our whole school system and real educa- tio,nal leadership we believe that Watertown is able and should be willing to pay 9,800 per year. Unfortunately the members of the School Conin-attee are divided as to the quality of the present leadership and their ad- vice to us on this subject during the past year has been most contradictory and their whole ittitu(le.weak and vacillatitrg. The differences that have;;,risen in consequence and the strong feeling; amused are most regrct.t.able from e%re ° angle. Until the issue is settled the efficiency of our school system and the confidence of our citizens in A rnust: suffer. A prompt a.nd sa.'tis- factory a,djustrneut,within the School ConImittee, as at print constituted seems impossible. For our a)mmittee to offer itself as a buffer between the conten(iin, parties might only col"Pli- sate an already delicate situation. The Meeting up- parently must furnish the fcruin NNIicre the cause insist bu heard ,and judged.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT To flre Hanorabie Beard of Selechnev: Gaiilleincu: I herewith sabinit the following report, for the Fire Department for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1919. The total membership December 31, 1019 is tNventy-seven men classed as follows: One pen-nanent chief, two permanent c,aptains, seventeen pern-:anent privates, and seven call men. During the year one pen-n.a7nent private was promoted to the rank of perllianent captain. `1§leis provided a, superior officer for each station at all tithes. Four additional permanent pion ere al pc in during the year and the call force was reduced. ac cordlilgly. The apparatus has been entirely m.6torized ding the year, thus increasing the efficiency of the Department to the extent that I believe we now have enough apparatus for the coming year. All apparatus is iLn first-class con(lition. As far as possible the members of the Department have iitade-all repairs that were needed. The new pump, which was installed in July, has given entire satisfaction. I now believe that the needed addition to Station. Two should be completed at Dance as this station should be provided with a ladder truck within the next two years. The sleeping quarters at this station are now ovcrcruwded and n-ith the addition of more permanent men the recrc46011 room must he given over to sleeping quarters. The acceptance of Chapter 132 of the Acts of 1919 by the citizens at the last State Election provides for the div-16cn of the fire fighting farce into a clad, farce and a night force.. This systcrn becoines operative rebruary 2, 1020. To successfully operate the present apparatus under the two-platoon system eleven additional perinanent men inust be appointed a.ndquarte- ters provided for some of them at each station. With the addition of eleven nien the naaximitm strength of each platoon will be only the mill-initun strength under the present system of .4 RtPORT OF FLRE DEPARTMENT 151J one day off in five. Considering all demands to be made on the: Town for the coming year, bath for improvements and increased salaries, I believe I can operate the Department successfully with the number of nicri asked for, together with the support of the men on the off-shift who may be in Town and gill respond to alarms. Seven Hundred Dollars ( 00) was provided for alterations at the Central Fire Station. This work, as far as the appro- priation would permit:, was done by the men except the plaster- ing. f recommend that an additional appropiiation of three hundred dollars be made in order to complete this work. A petition has been received from the citizens living in the vicinity of Wav e,rley Avenue and Main Street asking that to fire alarm box be placed there,, as it is some distance to the nearest bux. An alarm received from existing boxes for a fire at this location would be very misleading to the Department. I rec onunend that a box be: placed in this vicinity. One thousand feet of fire hose was provided with the new pun p but there was no allowance matte for replacement of wet hose after returning from a fare. Five hundred feet of hose was provided to replace worn-out hose, which is the usual arnount discarded each year and which must be replaced. At the iV atcr- proof faint Company fire six hundred feet of hose was destroved. Three hundred feet of this hose was lost by the; Ne,,-ton Depart- ment and eras replaced Nvith new hose from our appropria.t.10n. It will be necessary, therefore, to purchasc fifteen himdred feet of hose during 1920. I recainmend that an apliropriation be made for this amount of Dose. Fires and Alarins Fire pre�rention work by members of the Department during the year has resutted in reducing the number of alarms over the,prev ous year. The losses, however, have increased owing to two serious fires with which we had to contend; one clue to carelessness and the other of unknown origin. The Department responded to a total number of one hundred and fifty-eight alarms. Ninety-eight of these were still alarms responded to by penrranent men only- the 'balance, or sixty 0 56 WATERTOWN TOWN KgFORT alarms, were bell alarms to whidi both permanent and call men responded.

The Department is ready to assist in having any dangerous {condition removed. I desire in this annual report to thank the members of this Department for their loyal support and co-operation the -past year. With so many opportunities for higher wages and shorter hours the men have shown a wonderful devotion to the Town and their chosen duties, Nvitli the result that the two-platoon system was adopted by the citizens without any effort for its adoption being made by the men, except to bring it before the Town for adoption or rejection. zhile this does not effect the chief of the department it benclits the working conditions of the men and as a result should increase their efficiency. In their behalf I thank the citizens for their very kind consideration and expression of confidence in the Department. r In behalf of the Town I thank the Departments of Ike-,ton, Waltham, Belmont, and Cambridge, who scx ably and willing- ly cane to our assistance during the past year. In closing, I thank your Honorable Board for your co-opera- tion and assistance. For a detailed report of the Department expenses refer to the Auditor's Report. Respectfully submitted, JOHN W.

The report of the Poles and Wires Department for the year ending December 31, 1919, is herewith submitted. Maintenance New cross arras and wires were installed on the holes on Bel- mont Street between Lexington Street Arid Sycamore Street and on kSycamore Street between Belmont Street and Gill Road, to take care of the fire and police loxes there. Old wires were removed from Dolt Street and Knowles Read and neiv wires run on part of Molant Auburn Street. W ires WCTe transferred to new poles on the following streets: Mount Auburn, Otis, Brigham, Ailing-ton, Cottage, Main, Green, Gilbert, Orchard and Waltham. Wires were also trans- ferrcd on Spring "Street between Fayette Street and Marion Read and on Marion Road, on Common Street, betkveen Colunj- lia Street and Bellevue Road and on part of Myrtle Street. There were a number of small transfers on to one or more pales set in by the Edison Electric Illiunina,ting Company and the New England Telephone and Telegraph Co. The wires ran through a great many trees and this necessitated insulating the wires and clearing cuff tree grounds. Fi%re tappers were transferred to new locations and three fire-alarm boxes to new poles. All the lines were gone over tliorougl-ly and where the need was most urgent the old wires were replaced, slack wires mulled up and decayed cross arras removed. There is still a great deal of this work to be clone. _ All fire alarm, police and cable books and all pipe were painted and the bores tested f'equently. House Inspection The house inspections increased materially- over the 1918 work. IVIore than 1660 inspections were-made and 300 permits to set meters were issued to the Edison Electric Illuminating Co. '7 58 WATERTC3WN TOWN R -PORT New Construction The New England 'Telel)lionc and TelcgraphkCD. relocated a line of boles on Waverley Avenue, changing from the east side to the west side of the avenue. Can accowit of thischange ;t will be necessary for the Town to install the underground system between the bridge can Waverley Aveuue and Xlain 5trcct, in order to take care of the lines going north on Waverley Avenue. The cable post at the corner of Taylor Street and Mount Auburn Street was broken, but the mpense of ropairing the past was met by the ,person responsible for the damage. The work- of the Dupartn%cnt is steadily increasing with the growth of the 'Town and the i-naintenance of the lines for the coming year requires the additional ar ount asked for labor.

In 1919 the Department made 51S arrests, as compared Ni.ith 510 for 1918. Among the most serious crimes corrnrnitt.ed during the y ea.r were the bold house robberies of one harry Benvin, -;,110 is now serving a long term at state's prison in Charlestown; and the crimes couunitted bra Floyd Johnson and Harry Jones. The latter two individuals, on thcc morning of October 1, at the paint of a revolver, held up the night wa.telmian at the Morgan Garage on Prentiss Street, taking a surn of money, a touring - car and an overcoat. They Nvere apprehended, conv-lcted of robbery while being armed, and larceny of an automobile; and are now serving long; tcriris in the state's prison.. REPORT OF CHIEF OF POLTU 67 Liquor Laws We have had no complaints concerning the -,violation of laws relating to the sale of liquor, and, as in the bast, the Town has continued to uphold its reputation of being one of the cleanest to%N ms in the State in this respect. Recommendations During tkYe past year ive have experienced considerable diffi- culty in handling traffic conditions at Beacon Square, Galen and aterto,%srn Streets, +Chaunev and Mt. Auburn Streets, Common and Alt. Auburn Streets, School and Nit, auburn k Streets, and at Bigelow Avcnue. Most of the traffic hazards are rondered very important because of the large nu-mber of school children who must cross the main thoroughfares on their way to and from school. The Department has eadea.voared to maintain a traffic officer at these various crossings during the hours that the children arc exposed to this danger. This important pro- tection has been maintained at the expense of taking the officers off their regular routes; and, of necessity, means a reduction. in the amount of protection that can be given other portions of the Town. With the opening of the improved North Beacon Street and its resulting increase in amount of traffic, conditions at Beacon Square justify the placing of a traffic officer at this paint. Dur- ing the year we have had several serious accidents and a great many of them are caused by the traffic hazards in the Square. I believe traffic should be directed by police officers from 0.30 a. m., until 9.30 p.rn. This would make ne sary the employment of two regular traiic ni en, In order to relieve conditions at the various other crossings above mentioned, the emplo-ment of t-,vo additional officers is recommended. In event of the force being so increased, it would be passable to place traffic officers at the dangerous crossings during; the hours that they are most needed. The employment of four additional police officers is, therefore, reconunead ed. The S&anley s€earn ambulance, which lids been in constant operation since October 1015, is in need of a general overhauling. 68 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT The makers of this car estimate the cost of the necessary work at about S590-%i ith the possibility of a new boiler at an additional cost of $300. It is my belief that the interests of the Town would be better served by the substitntion of a gasoline chassis m price of the present steam car. The car body could be shifted over to the new ch��ssis at a cast of ahem 2100_ 1 feel a gasoline car would be less expensive to operate than the pres- ent machine, and the reducedoperating expense would, in a few years, save the Mereace in cast between overhauling the steam car and its substitution by a gasolinemachi-ne. The appropriation of 2100 to cover necessary ch t-n es on the police ambulance is, therefore, recommended. Changes James P. Burke was promoted from inspector sergeant to lieutenant April 8, 1919. Henry M. Doherty -was appointed a permanent patrolman January 1, 1919. Thomas W. Devaney was appointed a permanent patrolman August 29, 1919. John J. Igoe has had a provisional appointment since J-anuary 15, 1919, D. Arthur Thompson-xhose name has been carried a member of the forep, during his period of military cluty was discharged from the 'Unites States army, August 22, 1919, His name has been dropped from the rolls by reason of his absence from Town. Conduct of Officers I am pleased to report that the conduct of the officers during the past year has been such as to continue the reputAian which the Torun has long enjoyed on account of its efficient and courteous police offiimrs. I feel that the men deserve much commendation for the manner in which they have attended to their duties. They have worked much extra time in order that the interests of the community inay be protected, and they haN,Te cheerfully responded to these extra calls. REPORT 6F CHIEF OF POLICE 6C9 Conclusions In concluding my report, I desire to extend the sincere thanks of the Department to the. Honorable Board of Selectmen, the Town Clerk, Judge Abbott, the Clerk of the Court, and the other officers and citizens who have shown a great spirit of � ear-operation -%6th the work of the Department.

They were first shaped to t}7e lines and grades furnished by our Engineering Department.. The new surface cansists of six inches of gravel, the same com- ing from our Pleasant Street pit.. As in the case cif Hillside Road, the grade called for gutters of ,stone and tag- construction. When the weather permits, Upland Roadand Winsor Avenue will be thoroughly rolled, and the work on these streets will be completed her the application of a blanket coat of oil or tar. Hawthorne Street Hawthorne Street was considerably improved at slight ex- pense by being. resurfaced Arith gravel. Inasmuch as the ivory was begun late in the season, and the cold weather was upon us before we could finish, it will he necesmry to complete the work in the carly Spring. This NW, consist of a thorough rolling, an application of oil .and some attention to the tar concrete gutters. 11-6 WXTERTOWN TOWN REPORT Columbia Street On account of the installation of a drain and catch-basins, that part cf Columbia Street which lies between Barma.rd Avenue and Russel- Avenue was in eery bad shape. To remedy that condition, this particular section was. resurfaced N�itb stone and - asphalt. Our appropriation was not large onough to dry any more at the time, bait we feel that the building of this street should be completed during the coming scason. Green Street Work was begun can Green Street in the Fall of 1918. The first step in the reconstruction of this street, was the securing of uniform sidewalk. This Was accomplished by the Nvidening of the street on the easterly side, permission having been ob- tained from the abutters for this improvement. After the preliminary work of rounding the corners, laying drains, installing catch-basins, removing trees, etc., the street was guilt of asphalt and stone. Streets Built under the Bettennent Act n response to a petition of the abutters, Appleton Street, Appleton Terrace, Hillside Road, Hosrner Street, Howe Street, Purvis Street, and Wilmot Street were built under the Better- ment Pict, All vaunt lots were connocted with the sewer, water, and gas so that when new houses go tip on the above mentioned streets the roadway will not have to be disturbed. The drainage was taken care of and needed catch-basins in. stalled, after which the streets were excavated to a depth of six inches below finished grade. When the roller had been used with food effect, a :six-inch coating of gravel was applied. On account of the grade, it NY-as necessary to construct tar .gutters on Wilmot Streit and Hillside Raad. Finishing touclies Nvill he put can these streets as soon as the - frost is out of the ground, Through the use of the steam roller a good smooth surface Will be secured, and later in the season a coat of tar or ail x ill be added. REPORT OF HIGIiWAY DEPARTMENT 77 Sidewalk, Construction The appropriation for Sidewalk construction should be greatly increascd, and the fact should not be lost sight of that property owners bear one-half the expen-se of building new- sidewalks .imd consequently the other half of the appropriation finds its gray � hack to " Treasury Rcceiptes ". Daring the year just ended requests for work of this kind approximated $2500, over and above the at-nowit of work com- pleted with the appropriation.

The drain for economical reasons was located for the most part on the; north side of the sewer as Iaid, to obviate the necessity of laying the sever connections through the lower part of the drain, which is decidedly objectionable, if the drain werc laid on the south side of sewer. The salvers in the dross streets where necessity required were relaid over the drain and connected with the serener. The surplus material frmn they trench was de- posited over the drain in Broadway Extension, making a pro- tective embankment, being a favorable and economical dump- ing ground. The length of the six-foot division is nineteen hundred thirty feet, extending from the outfall drain to about the center of IMarion Road; from this point to about the center of Barnard Avenue through Broadway and connecting with a concrete drain huilt in 1903 is seven li-andred thirty feet. The following table shows the location, length, size;, Ni�ith other information of drains built during the past year: Sl 82 WATER'1OWN TOWN REP01ZT No. ATo.

Would recommend that at least one hundred feet ir1 length of the seN er be rela.id at an early date. Estimated cost, $500. 1 cannot spear too forcefully of the importance of providing proper transportation for this Department, It will be economy for the: Town, and hi every way increase its efficiency.

ANNUAL REPORT OF '1HE BOA OF HEALTH To the Cif izvns of the Town of I Fa rto nz: 1 The. Board of I-fealth herewith submits its annual report for the year ending December 31, 1919. Mr. Lean G. Chase having sucecoded Mr. Thorna.s F. Kelly as a, member of the Board, the Board orga�xi�ed with J. A. Boucher, M.D., Chaff Milan, and Mr. Lmis A. Thomas as clerk. The followuxg appointments were made- Health Officer and Agent, John W. Tapper. Inspector of 3%{111k and Provisions, John` . Tapper, Superintendent o[ Ceineteries, Frank R. Shorey, Inspector of Plumbing, Thomas B. Wishart. Office Clerk, Hilda C. Joy. Public Health Nurse, LQuisc Clarke. This organization give-s to the Board the proper farce with which to do the work of the Department. A new filing and rcoording systern has been installed, and the records of the Department brought up to elate. During the year, the Town has been exceptionally free from contagious diseases,nc�tWi -1-st',"Iclixxg the fact that in many citi€5 and towns in the C411111-nonwealth, there was are cpiticinic of diphtheria and scarlet fever, tlxese localities having an unusual number of cases of each disease, while in Watertown the ninnber of cases were actually lass than the number .reported in 1918. It is also very interesting to note that the duath rate for this- vear is the lowest ill the histOn' of the Town, and the infant mortality one cif the loivesL in the countI-V. Frequent inspec- tions have beet, nxade of food stares, bak-LT-1 s, and fn-dt stores in an effort to improve sanitary conditions. An effort has also been made to eliminate conditions surround- in- premises where during the war, penilit.s for the keeping of pigs were g rmted. The Board's decision not to grant permits excepts under approved conditions will do much tow-e rd inpr+ov- 9x 96 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT ing the situation. A reference to the several tables printed here- u,ith should prove interesting as showing by comparison the in- crease of the Depa,rtnient's activities, and should lie, a source of satisfaction to the Citizens. The Board tales this opportunity to thank the Citizer).s of Watertown, the `vprn Officials, and the Heads of Departments and employees, for the assistance and -operation during the yclu- The reports of the Agent, Inspector of Milk and of Provisions, Superintendent of Cemeteries, Inspector of Plumbing, and the Public Health nurse .follmv.

Gen i`enteri: I herewith submit for Your consideration nay report as Health Officer and Agent of the Board, for the year ending December 31, 1010. y General Health General health conditions of the Town during the year, have been unusually food_ Influenza did not return as a great many thought possible, and the ntunbcr of contagious diseases have been remarkably law notwithstanding that in many other Towns there were an unusual number of cases of diphtheria and scarlet fever. The niunher of 'cases in Watertown ivere actually less than those of 1918, t-;�renty-eight cases of scarlet fever and thirty--five cases of diphtheria wom reported, as against twenty-three cases Of scarlet fever and twenty-sip Cases of diphtheria in 1919,. and three; cases of t3lPhoid fever, the same number reported the previous year. No death resulted front esther cause, except in one instance where no physician was celled to attend a case of diphtheria until too late. It is also very gratifying to note that: the death rate for the year is but 6.7 per :1,Ulltl inhabitants, this being the low- est death rate within the history of the Town. The infant mor- tality alsoo pronuses to be one of the to%vest in the cotmtry. Tot- ,tNithstanding this fine showing, Inca much cannot be said in regard to the need of prompt reporting to the Board of Health, of all contagious diseases, especially in cases where no physician is called. iMany parents do not realize that the same laiv which requires the physician to report, applies to all householders, even in cases where persons are not sick enough to have a physician. 97 98 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Sanitary CDnditions Sanitary conditions about the Town are fairly good, and should continue to improves with the elimination cif seine, hens, and other animals from undesirablc localities. The continued refusal of the; Board to grant permits to applicants whc re con- ditions are unfavorable will do -rnuch toward improving condi- tions dine possibly to the exigencies of the war. Surface Drainage Surface drainage in the Fossland presents a most serious problem, demanding prompt -_Atention that a remedy may be Provided at the earliest possible cute. Because Of i2"PrOl3err surface drainage especially during the mrly spring, and in rainy weather, many of the houses are made unfit: for human habita- tion due to flooded cellars, many of thein at times being; flooded to a depth of several feet. This condition, lasting for weeks, prevents the use of Beating plants, causes serious dampness to the buildings, and is not conducive to goocl.bealtil. Bea use of these conditions, the Beard might be justified in ordering i-ia.ny of the premises vacated, but the present housin problem however, would not warrant such action except: as a East resort. I would t;lte~rerfore urge an ca.rly conference between the Board of Health, property owners, and the Selectnien in an effort to brim abut a solution of the problem. Medical School Inspection This is One of the most important phases of the; public JIealth Work, and cv-ery effort should be made: to rnake the Public School Inspection as complete as possible. With this end in view, I would recoinmend that aii effort be made to have this ,vork combined with that Of the Berard of Health, who should be given full jurisdict' n ire all school health activities, nial ing ;r possible they establishment of a real physical and medical ex-an-1— inatioil in the schools. This could be rca.lize d if both medical and nursing forces we;-rc available for the work. REPORT of f3OAM or HEALTH 99 Dental Clinic A dental clinic should be established where, for a minimm-n fee, teeth of the scholars could be attended to. This clinic might well he established through the aid of the public-spirited citizens and the parents. The bctiefits derived from it would he realized many times in the foam of a health insurance for the children. I wish to thank the members of the Board, Town officials, office assistants, and the citizens in general for their kind con- sideration and assistance during the ycar. I have endeavored to show, my appreciation of this help throug ,h efforts to Better the health cmiditions of the community. Respectfully submitted, JOHN W.

Milk The nai k supply during the past year has been of excellent quality. Constant supervision must he maintained, however, that this most necessary and essential article of food may be made safe, Freedom from illness of a milk-born nature is a 4 true indication that the supply is well protected. New la.bori- tory= equipment, recently provided for the prober examination of of milli samples will be of much assistance to the Inspector, and the results obtained therefrom should be of great value to the Town. Provisions The adoption by the Board of a proper food regulation, and frequent inspection of stares and other places where food stuffs are sold, have resulted in a considerable improvement in some places. Mucli,however., remains to be done along this line. flu,- seizure at Thanksgiving time of a large lot of turkeys and sub- sequent prosecution and conviction of the dealer %rill do much toward preventing others so inclined from taking a similar chance with focd stuffs that by reason of their condition are unfit for human consumption. The following; comparative figures are interesting, showing as they do that quite a number of licenses that should have lawn issued were overlooked in other y►eais. 107 108 WATERTOWN TOWN.

The question of street railway tracks in the street, 'which has been in abeywice the past two years, has been settled by the Trustees of the Boston Elevated Railway Company deciding they do not feel warranted in relaying the tracks in North Beacon !`,trect. Their action, as expressed verbally, is based upon hwk of funds, with which to do the work, supported by the statement that the live never paid and therefore does not warrant the expenditure. Purther delay in the work of construction and surfacing does not stern warranted. Watertown, at considerable expense has laid out a broad, main thoroiighffire, beginning at Beacoa Square and con- finuing to the magnificent new bridge over the Charles River, the highway thence continuing into Boston mer what is destined undoubtedly to become the main, direct bighway between Boston and tuv ms and cities h6n- west. This highway proniises to become one Of the most traveled roads out of Boston, accommodating not only, pleasure vehicles but heavy truck-traffic as well. The importance of this high way and the permanency of the development, providing as it does, for all future, bniags before this rneeting, for decision the character of surfacing to be pro- vided on this roadway. Your Committee after full consideration, recommends that the type of surfacing used be of as permanent a farm as the finances of the Town may warrant. The Committee recommends that the portion of the street back of the Arsenal, lying between School Street and the bridge approach, be surfaced with granite blocks on a six-inch concrete base; from School Street to Beacon Square, the Committee recommends six-inch concrete surfacing. The Finance Committee concurs in this recommendation. The Town Engineer's estin-4-tte, for this form of surfacing and -preparatory work is as follows: RECORD OF TOWN MERTINCS 1*3 Schutt Street to bridge approach (length 1658 feet).

Board of Selectinen, j t°r t �?crEt �., I l ass. Gentlemen: At the adjourned Town Nleeting held March 20, appropria- tions were: made for salaries in the School Department of the superintendent, janitors and teachers by votes appropriating specific amounts of money for these purposes and at the same meeting votes were passed appropriating certain specific .sums cf money as salariea of the auditor, Treasurer, 'Tax Collector, and Town Clerk. At the adjourned Town Xleeting held March 25, 1919 upon rulings made by the moderator, with my consent i as Town Counsel, additional sums were appropriated for salaries in the School Department and salaries of the several Town officers mentioned. I am of the opinion that the votes at the second adjourned Town Meeting held on March 25, 1919 appropriating additional. Burns for salaries of the several 'Town officers above mcnticner_1 and the various employees in the school +departme.lit were illegal. Under Chapter 1 of the By-lases a provision is made that notice shall state briefly the lousiness to be acted ul)cn at said meeting and shall include notice of any proposed recon- sideration. It is my opinion that the action taken at the second adjourned 1 WATERTOWN TOWN DEPORT Town Mecting in substance amounted to a reconsidoration of the veto talon at the meeting held on March 20, and, inas- trYueli as there was no notice given of the proposed action such action was invalid. It follows, therefore, that the School Committee cannot mail itself of the additional appropriation of $5,000 nor should the auditor or vour Beard approve a warrant for the additional stuns as salaries of the several Town officers. Respectfully yours, WE SLEY E. MONK, Town Counsel. Article 5.

The Committee on Change in the Form of Town Gcvernrnent reported as follows: Report of the Committee to Consider a Change in the Forin of Town Government The committee appointed at the antitial town meeting IMarch 22, 1916, submits to the Tovn-i a further report of its investiga- tions and recorninendatiorls. 166 WATE.RTOWN TOWN REPORT At the Annual Town 'Nlecting March 21, 1918, a report of this committee was made to the Town of its dryings up to that time, and this report is intended to cover the period succeeding. At the Annual '1 r) gin Meeting last year a vote vas passed direct- ing the Moderator to appoint three additional members to the committee, one of wham was to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Edward N. Clancy, inaking the total membership ref the committee, 17. Those appointed in accordance; with this vote were Alfred A. Glidden, Nathan K. Garhart and Charles F. Shaw. During the year there have been held twelve meetings, all of which have been quite £ally attended. The committee has given careful thought and study of the various forms of municipal government, and has had assistance at its meetings from men having special knowledel;e of different forms of such government, Ernest B, Dane, one of the Select- men of the Town of Brookline, who outlined the representative form of town government -now in operation in that town, Theodore lid, Waddell of the Nl-mstachu-setts Bureau of Statistic and in charge of the Department of k1unicipal Finance, who spoke on the cost and efficiency of the city as compared with the; town, fonn of govern-lient in Nlassachusetts, Clarence A. Bingham, City Manager of the City of Waltham, who explained the Conimission-Mana.l„er fordo of city- government, and Hon. John A. Sullivan, former Solicitor of the City oaf Boston, who outlined and explained the form of charter by which the City of Boston is nov, ,,overned. The committee has carefully considered the matter before it, and a great deal of time has boen devoted to a serious discussion of such advantages and defects in the various forms as have appeared to exist in the itinds of its several inembers. The conclusion has been reached that the chief defect in our present form of government is to be found in the legislative function as excrcised in the 'pawn Meoting. The ni-Lmber of those who are entitled to votes is 9311J(), but on account of the limited suing capacity of our town hall, only about ten per cent•1 of the voters can actually exercise that right, -,�%-ith the possibility that a policy or action of the entire town can be determined by a small it inority of those entitled to R-ECORD OF T01"I INITEETINGS 167 vote; which minority may be, and sometimes is, actuated by purely personal or sectional interest. This might be reme(Eed in some degree by the erection of a larger hall, but we wo-ald then be canfronted with the fact that when the nuniber of those entitled to speak and vote in Town Meeting becornes too great, as in our own case, then the open Town 'Nleeting becomes unwieldy and the best results cannot be accomplishcd; btit it is the opinion of the committee that it is highly desirable to retain the active interest of as many of. the citizens as possible in the affairs of the Town, censistent with having; a workable legislative body. It is, therefore, our opinion that we should have some form of government having a large representation. Accordingly, we recommend that a fcrui of representative Town Meeting similar to that under which the Town of Brookline is governed, should be adopted by o= Tnwn. I-Ire, therefore, suggest that steps be taken to petition the Gtnmi Court for such legislation as will enable the Town to adopt a representative forin of Town Xleeting, and we annex hereto, and inake part hereof, a suggestion of the form of a special laur x-duch should be obtained in order to accomplish the purpose of our recommendation. Sectian 1. Upon the acceptance of this act by the Town of Watertm,ni as hereinafter provided the selectmen of the Town ,:;hall forthwith divide the tcmitcry thereof into voting precincts, each of which shall be plainly designated, and shall contain not less than three hundred nor 1-11are than oi)e thousand finale voters.

AlcGUIRE, Town Clerk. REPORT OF TOWN PLANNING BOARD To the Cidgens of Watertown -We beg to submit our sixth annual report for the year ending December 31, 1919. The Board consisting of four members instead of the custom- ary five, organized with Forrest J. Maynard as Chairman and. Herbert G. Mason as Secretary. During the year Mrs. Lwv-ell resigned so that the work has been somewhat intenupted. We have niet once a month except in July, August and Sep- tember, but several times no meeting has been held as only two members were present. The Board has given ccnsiderable study to the selection of a suitable site for a naw municipal building. At the December ToN m Alceting a committee was appointed to make recommendations can this matter. The members of the Tm%m Manning Board are.me nbers ex ofhcio of this conic-nittee and it is thoug it wilt at this time not to publish the stud Ics and recoinsnendations of the hoard which have been turned over to the special committee which will report at the Annual Town. Meeting. . The Beard has made a plan of grave Street shOWing a uniform wdening of fifty feet at the request of the Metropolitan Park Commission. They expect to build a boulevard along the Charles Raver from :)arsenal Street to Cambridge and plan to connect with Grove yStrcet. e would recommend that the portion of Wit th op Street from the south line of Hancock Stre:t to the intersection of Concord Road be abandoned and that a ten-foot granr)lithie walk be built there. This would give the school children a larger and better playground and better plans could be made for the future development of the land around the school buildings. We, would advise that the portion of Hancock Street from. Win- throp ,Street to Boylston Street be abandoned. e would recomn3end that town. line signs, with Watertown 242 REPORT OP TOWN PLANNIN'+G BOARD 243 ma~ked on one half the sign and on the other half the name of the adjoining town, he placed at the town line on all the prin- cipal thoroughfares. This is a feature which interests all, and would give at a glance the boundaries of the town. Respectfully submitted, FORRE ST J. MAYNARD, Chaff man. HERBERT G. MASON, Secretary. ALTER B. SNOW.

ASSESSORS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1919 The Board of Assessors respectfully submits its report of the work for the year 1919. This year the tax layers have been obliged to pay at the larg_ est rate in the Town's history. This was made necessary by the largely increased appropriations by the Town and by the increase in the State and County taxes. lVe all realize that the high cost of everything necessitates the larger appropriations. Our rate, however, compares favor- ablv with other towns End cities in the vicinity, and, considering the fact that the valuation is generally lower than is placed on property of a sin-,ilar character in most other n+carby towns and cities, the amount of your tag: bill is lover. Opinion is divided as to the wisdom of a higher valuation and a lover rate. IIle think that the lower valuation is for many reasons in the best intereest of the Town. We believe, however, that it will be neccesairy to increase v.alaes on real estate sorne- what in the next year, as new construction costs approxiniately one hundred per centurn more at the present time than it did a few years back, and almost all real estate sales made during the past year have been large-4y in excess of the assessed values and also increased rentals have been obtained. By Chapter 283 of the General Acts of 1919, poll taxes for the four years 192) to 1923 inclusive are to he 8 .90. This Act is sometimes called the War Bonus Act providing for disburse- ments to persons in the military and naval service of the Federal Govemment in the great }var. About one-half of the estimated amount necessary is to be provided by an addition to the poll tax for four years beginning v6th 1920. The extra charge of three dollars on each pall assessed is a. direct liability of the Town to the State:, and must be paid%{rhether collected or not so that a more prompt and thorough collection of poll taxes must be made in order to prevent serious loss.. By Chapter 1CS of the Acts of the Year 1919, the listing of lolls for assessment purposes will hereafter be done by the police. We believe that this will be a great iinprovernent as it will leave the Assessors more time to devote to real estate and personal property. FREDERIC E. MITCHETT, CLINTON E. HOI,.MES, B.

Gmitlemof I herewith submit to you my report as Tovm Almoner for the year ending December 31, 1919. Outside Aid Department Seventh,--three cases or one hundred and seventy-eight in- dividtials have received aid through this department during the past year. The increased expense has been due to the perman- ent hospital eases, of which there are five; the Increased board, and the general advances in all lines of commodities furnished. The Toim is now paying board for fire families of +child- ren with no parents to prm ide for them.; one child in State Hospital School at Canton, and six children who are in care of the Comm an wealth, Fatirteen mases have mceived hospital care only, of which eight Nvere iiifluciira in the early part of the year. Tex por- , ary aid has been given to twenty-three families, all of wham are now taping care of themselves or have gone from Town. There are seven cases of long standing still under Town care„ and rent only is paid for two more. Nine burials have been paid for by the Town with settlement in this Tovm, one family Eyed in Cambridge and one family in 14'itchburg. One was a State Infary case. Of the out-of-Town settlements, one acknowledged and two waiting for further investigation are in Cambridge; two are in NeLvton; three aze in Boston; one in Attleboro; one in Leominster, and ten arc State cases; from all of which, some reimbursement comes to this Town. One case, under direction of the State, has been sent to her grandparents in lEngland, this Town ipaAng her transportation, as that in the end seemed better than keeping her here to became a permanent public cha:rgo. The dew Year opens'Mth twenty-seven cases on the books, 435 6 WATEATOINN TOWN REPORT costing $►169 per week, an increase over last year of twenty-six cases Costing $1.29 per week. Though no more adequate aid is being rendered, the increased rents and board, with the general high cost of living, compel us to ask for a larger appropriation for the coming year. Mothers' Aid. Department The amount of aid given through this Department the past year has been the Irargest since Mothers' Aid was established in 1913, and bids fair to be an annual increase. 'Thirty-two fam- ilies have been supported, twenty of whom have received aid the entire year, aii increase of nine over last year. Of this number, three cases of short duration, seventeen to tiventy-five weeks, have now ceased. Two families moved from Town and one woman married main. One case of several years standing has become self-supporting. Only two families are living out of Town; one in Boston, and one in Waltham, receiving; aid from their respective cities, but reimbursed by this Town to two-thirds of the amount expended. Of the remaining tiventyr-six cases living; in Town, three have settleraents elsewhere, respectively, Boston, :Somerville, Wal- tham. Eight others arc State cases. For all of these full reimbursement is made to this Town. The fifteen cases having Watertown settlement are reimbursed by the Suite to one-third of their total expense. One thousand four hundred aml. seventy Nveeks aid have been given this year against saver hundred and sixty weeks for the previous year; and our estimate of two hundred weeks in cases ha% been overran to more than four buridred weeks; fence the need of the additional appropriation a.�lced for the last of the year. The general advance in prices along all lines has greatly affected this Department, and made the present basis of aid givers inadequate to the needs of the various €arailies. There- fore the have asked for a larger appropriation for the coming year. Several cases are now waiting our investigation, and will soon be added to the present list. Respectfully submitted, HENRY W. IIOWARD? Town Alim er. ALMSHOUSE DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of 0mrseers of t7ie Poor, Gentleimn. I respectfully submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1919. Realizing that the function of the Abrishouse is to provide a home, and so far as possible everything that it implies, for those ivho have, through misfortune or otherwise been deprived of the blessings of life which most people do enjoy. we have sought to do our utmost to promote the comfort and happiness of those whom it sheltered, Each year the cost of supporting the poor is greater than the year before on account of the ever increasing cost of the necessities of life. The 1-mildings Have been kept in gctid condition through particular attention paid to repairs. Manv minor improvements should be made, several rooms should. be given a coat of paint and others should be papered. The sold lead water pipes are deterioratim,fast and when repaired should be replaced with grass pipes. It %N ill be necessary to purchase: a lame amount of woad this ooming year as the de- mands for the same from the Mothers' Aid Departmont are ever increasing. To the different people who have in any way contributed to the happiness cf the inmates, either by visits or the furnishing of reading matter, the wish to express our thanks. Donations of reading matter are always very acceptable. The Town Phvsician, Dr. Charles S. Emerson has been very conscientious in the discharge of his duties, giving the inmates eseellent care;when they- needed his attention. There were nine inmates at the beginning of the year and eight at the close. The whole number of inmates has been seventeen, the largest-nuinber at one time, twelve, smallest, seven, average, ten. Five inmates were placed in the care of relatives, one was removed to the Waltham Hospital, one to the Holy Ghost Hospital, one to the Tewksbury Almshou-se, and one went to work. GEG GE H. WHITE, Keeper of Almshouse. 437 REPORT OF TOWN PHYSICUN To fite Honorable EGard of Selecinwn.. GeMenzer.:. Followiag is my rej:*rt as TGwn Physician for the year ending December 31, 1919. The number of calls to the Mothers' Aid and Outside Aid patients, in comparison with other ye,-Lrs has greatly increased. There have been three patients at the Gordon Horne Hospital Jamaica Plain, wbo have required frequell-t attention. One path,,nt at the Almshouse who required special care has been sent to the Holy Ghost Hospital, CanibrIcIge. The other patients at the Alsi-rillouse have required attention from time to titne. First Aid has been rendered in accident cases at the P011CO SUL- tion, though the number of calls there has been less than usual, Attention has also been given to Twn patients who are residing elsewhere. Respeelfully subn-titted, C. S. EMB RSON, M. D.

Y 439 REPORT OF PLAYGROUND COMMISSION To the Honorable Board of Seleclr>wn The Playground Conuix issiotl herenith submits its fifth annual report. The Commission met and organized in ;Mine, 1919, as follows: W. W. Norcross, chairman Edward J. Paul, secretar%,. The playg7ounds and bathing }peach were opened on July 7 and closed August 29, 1919. The work this year has been tinder the supervision of Mr. Frank McNamara who has given excellent satisfaction in every way, and was fortunately aided by competent assistants who co-operated with hiln to snake the season's work a success, During the entire season a ;great interest was apparent in every phase of the work as indicated by the large daily attendance. This year a new kind of work nas incorporated into the curric- ulum, being that of millinery and embroider of hats. V6"ith splendid results. Polk dancing was also entered into on a lamer scale than ever before. The work at the playgrounds and bathing beach has been carried on v6th no friction whatever, and to the best advan- tage of all thechildren. The Conunission maintained two playgrounds and a bathing beach, one playgrotin l located at Salta}nstall Park and one at the Coolidge School located at the. East En(L The bathing beach is lop-ated at a paint on the bank of the Charles River ill the rear of the Perkins Institute for the Blind. The Commission would recoinnicnd that additional play- grounds be set up, as there are a large number of chilch-en who are not served under the present conditions, as they would have to go some distance from their homes.. The: follo+u ng attendance record will indicate how well the playground is patronized during; the stunrner vacation seaason.

Largest attendance for any one day Coolidge School: Boys, 90; Girls, 75. The bathing beach was in charge of two life guards, Francis Mooney, and John Mason, who were on duty each week day from 10 a. m. until 8 p. m. There was also a matron, Airs. ToInian, present each day from two o'clock until sit for the convenience of women and chi]dren. The attendance at the bathing beach was very good throughout the season and on three occasions the life guards prevented possible fatalities. The Commission would recommend that some of the perma- nent apparatus at the Saltonstall Park Playground he repaired before the opening of another season, as the present equipment has become unsafe due to exposure to the weather. The port- able apparatus at both playgrounds is in good conchtion with the exception of a few minor repairs a=hich can be made at the opening of the next season. On Friday afternoon, August 29, 1919, 'a most successful season was concluded 11"ith an exhibition by six hundred children, which was held at the Saltonstall Park Playground;folk dancing, singing, competitive athletics Were part of the program. Speci- mens of haiidicraft were also shown, The work of the children was greatly appreciated and highly commended by all as it proved to be a novelty of oatdaor eV.- hibitions. lire recommend the follmwing appropriation for the year 1920 Salaries. . . . . . . . . . . . . . a . . . . . . , , . . , . . . . . . . . . . . . 51,400.00 Repairs. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . , . . . . . . . . . . ?')OM Equipment. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . �?4}.(}t} Ccrntingent. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.29 )0.elf'} The Commission wish to thank all who have in any, wav assisted during the year. _ W.

To the Cili--ens of Watertown The Park Commission respectftully submit their report for the year ending Dce?cmber 31, 1910, with recommendations for the ensuing year, The Conunission duly met, organizcd and carefully laid plans for work to be perfmned ditring the year, and are pleased to state that all parks and deltas have been kept in first class con- dition. Special hermits for the use of the athletic fields were issued and they ha,-,=e been well patronized. Saltonstall Park The baseball diamond in Saltonstall Park was carefully- laid out by the Town n9-111eor to as near regulation size as possible. We realise a ball diamond €)n this park Till never offer proper opportunity for play, because of its limited size and unfortunate location of several fine elm trees which we would not recomnwnd cutting; down. The side'ralk in the park has been patched up to make it safer for pedestrians and we recon=end that a new ,valk be laid and are asking for a special appropriation to cover same. The present bandstand needs repairing and painting. During the yc w we have thorotighly repaired the iron fence bordering on Umi Street. r Flowe Park We Have removed the cold wire fence ivIlich has rotted away and was dangerous to pedestrians.

We have been studying the possible development of the field for general athletic purposes, but in view of the appointing of a special committee by the Town for that purpose, to which the members of this commission belong, prefer to make no further recommendations at the present time. In General In general we would welcome suggestions from -thy: cities of the Town to improve the work of this Department. Our Superintendent, Mr. Van Horton, is to be cwn mended for his excellent work and the Commission feel that the Town is very fortunate in having a man of his calibre mi charge of this De- partment work. For the ensuing year we recommend an appropriation of$3300 divided as follows: salary of superintendent, $300; general maintenance, $1100; special for Saltonstall Park, $200, for repairing and painting grandstand which unless put in good condition will have to be tarn down because unsafe. Special for Saltonstall Park $750, for laying new cement walk, present walk in poor condition. Special for flag pole $950, to be located either on Beacon Park or at junction of the following intersecting streets, Mt. Auburn, Arsenal, North Beacon and Main Streets. This pale to be located either as above or in suitable island in the center of Beacon Square so that it will divide and control traffic at this point. We propose a top-mast type of pole 125 feet high, 18 inch stock set in suitable concrete foundation. Main pole being 90 feet high with topmast 35 feet high, complete with necessary halyards and mounted by large gold ball, e propose two flags one 20 feet by 40 feet for special days, and one 8 feet by 12 feet for common use. We believe the time 'has come for the Town to put up this pole and so recommmend. Respectfully submitted, EORGE E. FREETHY, Chairnfan, EDIN H. WHITEHILL, h WALTER A. FLE ELLING, Park Co missiomrs. REPORT OF TRRR WARrEN During the year fifty-four trees were rerrovecl; three on petitions of abutters, thirty-onD -which were dead or beyond repair, and twenty for highway iinprovernent. Twenty-seven new trees were planted to replace the old ones where the eon- ditions ivere firivorable, and thirty-four were planted on accepted streets on the Nvaitten requ&st of the abutters. The eh-r- tree beetle was noticeable on Main, Lexington, Orchard and Belmont Streets. The trees were sprayed in time to prevent any serious damage, from the beet1cs, Pruning of both live and dead branches which would be a menace to the public was neccssary on all streets. All electric ivires were closL- ly watched and when they came in contact with the trees they were report6d to the Edison Electric 11hu-ninating Co. and repairs were made, It is important that this Department he furnished a one-ton track.

Centlenxir The annual report of the Superintendent of the Moth Department is herewith submitted. Gypsy moth egg dusters were found in all sections of the Tovm and were treated with creosote. The Tam trees were sprayed w1ien the foliage came out and this also helped to keep the strut trees free froir? hrowntail n-.oths. The Moth Department attended to the trees on most of the private -property in the Town, treating the gypsy inoth egg clusters with creosote in the ivinter and spring inonths and alt- ting off and destroying the hrowntail n,.cth nests. The trees on private property were also sprayed when the o-,'vners requested it. Rose lushes and porch vines were the most difficult to treat, especially where lattice work surrounded the parches, as there is no way of getting at the inside, where the gypsy math frequently lays its eggs. When property owners preferred to attend to their trees themselves inspection was made -when your superintendent was notified that the work was completed. There Nvas not a very heavy infestation of browntail moths. Dear and apple trees are the most that are attacked by this pest. Respectfully subs—Pitted, VAN D.

The results of the new supply by means,of the intale from the nietropolitan main at Brigjiton have been very successful even beyond expectation, While it has not Yct bc,,.Tn subjected to the supreme test of ri se.6ons conflagration yet its efficiency must be evident to niost of the water-takers as manifested by more equable pressure cvcr}ivhere and by, largely. increased pressure in the higher altitudes and satisfilaory relief from the deficiencies to which the people in the highest parts of the Town have been subjected. It now remains in order to perfect our general supply systein to re-arnange as far as practicable the lines of distribution on a n logical and systematic basis. It is a fact and has been a neces- sity that the installation of new mains since the systein has been underMUMCIIN-LI control has been made, not as a part of a defin- ite Plan fully concehrt!d at the outset and folly"wed accorciingly, The origiliators of the scheme- for water supply had no idea, of the great development of the Town in recent years and they could not have afforded the cost of such an o utht y as i t s present and praba-blc future popWation would have involved lead they planned for such a development. To be concise it would have been better if the dimensions of T-nFLins had been better proportioned and if all had conformed to a logical plan distributIOT1. There is not; however much to complain of today, but if the Town is to advance x\,i th anyth.Ing hice the rapidity of recent years, it is very 1111porLant, (we think it absolutely necessary) that the layout of new lines of pipeage and a possiblc re-arrange- REFORT Or. WATER DEPARTMENT went of e%isting ones should be made With the purpose of nink- ing as perfect a system as possible. frith this idea in mind, which the board has discussed for a long time, we I-Lad intended to ask the Tov-n for an appropriation not a large one, to enable us to consult a first-class engineer who should make a completc review of existing conditi(Als and report suggestions for a comprehensive plan to be follaived in all future work. Btit considering the great expenses of the coming year we defer the matter to a more opportune time, only suggestin'g, that it will be unwise to ignore a matter of so much consequence. ' e regret that the financial require rents of the Department must nece&sarily be gre,-iter than of last year, They are prin- cipally occasioned by the enormous increase in the cost of ma, terkils and labor. Our estimates for rim,construction are based upon information given us as to streets projucted or to be re- made. It is possible that other streets may be denianded in the course of the near but Nve have cot-tired only those now presented with such a number of renewals as will probably follow. We assume that what bas been admitted to be the proper ani-itial outlay for reneival of n-utins Ifflill be granted subject to the advice anti approval of the cornii-tittee an finance. Our requirements for the ensuing year are as follows- For const.niction $212,211, for TMaintenance, $12,500, for Office, Sl,()O(), fol- 'Salaries, $6,240, for Vacations, 5552, for New Truck, $1,500, and for special work (rc construction) $10,000.

D ARDIS REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY The Trustees of the Free Public Library herewith submit the report of the Librarian for the. tear 1'.�11 9. Attention is especially called to the growing usc- of the Library and to the increasing cost of maintenance. The budget submitted by the Trustees for the con-m ng year repro- sents the absolute minimum on which the Library can be operated. The difficult}' of getting assistants for ghat tine can pay is cat stantly increasing. A greatly needed and much more satisfactory lighting equipment far the delivcrv, reading and children's roams was installed last; year out of the regtiai.Iar appropriation. For the third year in succession the heating plant has needed major repairs necessitating ;additional appropriations. `While the 'Trustees are hoping that the old boiler may be used for another year, it ixill be continued at the risk of closing the Library temporarily if a break should occur in cold weather. A new boiler this Fear would probably be the more economical Policy in the end.. The appropriation asked for books, owing to still rising costs, will not allow cf the purchase of as many new books as is de- sirable, and even now complaints are made that the Library dues not adequately provide for the public in this respect. A new desk in the delivery room, new flooring behind the desk., and other repairs are being deliberately postponed but most, come at no distant future time. The administration of the library,- has -proceeded smoothly during the past year under the efficient and enthusiastic Libraiiaii and,the loyal .assistants. Their harmonious and faithful service is hereby gratefully. recognized. ED ARD C.

I herewith present to YOU, the fifty-second report of the library. The growth of the library dturinl; 1019 has not been go m,-uk—ed as in the prceeding year, neither have the activities covered so wide a range as they did during the war period; the circulation has, however, shown a steady increase and we have participated whenever possible, in reconstnictiOn work and in the general acti-.jties of the Town. The purchase of technical hooks, in line With the work ,undertaken by the American Library Association has helped, not only sollte of the ex-service men, but the older mon as many of wham died not realize that the library contained such books. The circulation for the year is 12-1,3 9 volumes, an increase or 13.E per cent over 1918 and ,11.3 per cent over 1917. Library Hours '"re are constantly receiving expressions of the public's approval of the morning opcilhig of the library. We have found it;advisable to return to the former hours for the children`s room, and the: rocnn is now open from 2 to 8 p. M. every week day and Saturday rnorniugs f ror n 1 D to 12. The ,Sunday operung has been resumed and the xeading rooms are no'%v open Sundays from November to April, inclusive, from 3 to 6.311 p. m. Children under 12 years must be accompanied by adults. East Branch The work of the East Branch cantumes to grow and it is a question how much longer it can be carried on in the hinited quaz•ters we now ba-Te. It became advisable to increase the hours of opening and the Branch is now open from 2 to 6 p. m. and from 7 to 9 p, M. every weep day. This, and the increased circulation, has made it necessary to give more assistance to the S LIBRARIAN'S ir.PURT branch librarian and we feel that there is still a large field for work, especially with the children, which we are unable to do, because of cramped quarters, inadequate staff and insuffi(ient funds for books. INIrs. Elsie M. (Collins) Kennison, wbo has been librarian of the East Branch since its o1jenin.g, resigned because of her marriage. She has been mo9t cfficient and while wo, as well as those ii-ho use the East Branch, regret that she is to relinquish the duties of branch librarian, we are glad that she will still keep her connection with the library by searing as a s-abstitute, Miss Camp, from the Main Library will serve as branch librarian from January first. Children's Room A-fiss French, the Children's Librarian, left us carIv in the year to accept a position in New York, and her place was taken bv .Mis5 Ber-vl 1. Bartlett, of the Newton Library. Under her direction the -work in the children's room and with the grade schools has been carried an efficiently. She has conducted the story hour on Friday aftemoons. Durfiig the week of November 10-15 an exhibit of good books to buy for children was I-10d at the library and it wa.8 well atteridect by parents, teachers and children. The addition of another radiator has done much to improve the temperature of the children's room and the new electric lights have given better illumination, as well as removino the leakage of gas and linpro-,41g the gencral appearance Of the 1700111. 'Mien we can replace the heavy entrance doors with lighter weight ones which can be more easily handled by the children, wheal we can give the room a coat of wurrn-hued paint, and when. we can afford to buy a few good pictures suitable for a children's rooin, we shall fuel as, if the room was nearing what we hope W make it,—a, cheerful haven where the children will find inspiration and pleasure from their surroundings as ivell as from the books they read. Work With the Schools The work- With the schools, has I)een carried on much as it was last year. .All of the ninth grade classes came to the library in November, and in December, after a talk to the freshman class at the High School, the class came to the library in groups for practise work in the use of the library. The. class as a whole enjoyed this work, many asking for extra questions. This work could be carried on more advantageously in a libran, in the Nigh School tinder the supervision of a Nigh School Libra- rian. I bope than the realisation of this dream will come soon. A visit to the library in the high School of any of the surround- ing cities or towns would convince the most sceptical person of the value of a High School library- and the place it holds in school life. Berens Withdrawn The number of boob s withdrawn ciuriiin 191.9 is large, owing to the return of another lot of public documents to Washington and to the unusual nuinbox of books Eliscarded as worn out. The increased use of hooks is only partly responsible for this condition. Poorer paper and weaker biindir►gs make the life of a boob much shorter than farmcrly. This, as well as the itercased cost of ne-w books and of robinding, should be taken into consideration in asking for an appropriation for books anti Binding. The less of books from the Gpen shelves has been very small, much smaller than through the circiflation. Repairs The new lighting, -which was installed, in the circulation, reading and children's rooms, has added much to the looks of those rooms besides giving a much more satisfactory light. The temperature of the children's room has been improved by the addition of the ne r radiator. After One expenditure for the repairs of the heater last year it was hoped that this year there would be few repairs needed, but our bopQs were blasted. For three years it has been necessary to ask for a special appro- priation for repairs to the heater and similar outlay Neill probably Ix necessary each year 1intil it finally gets beyond xepair. It would seem a matter of economy, in spite of present high prices, to spend the money for a new heater, rather than to LIBRARIAN P$.REPORT 11 continue to spend money for temporary repairs and also to run the risk of a possible enforced closing of the library during the, ii nter rionths when the books are most needed. The library was built in 1883 and has Tiow reached the stage when a number of repairs are needed for the preservation, as well as for the look-8, of the building. Among these may be mentioned a iiew coat of paint inside and some new flooring. Last year I spoke of the -need of a new charging desk and a, re-arrangement of the fiction shelves, a need made more apparent by the increased circulation. The Past and the Future The past two years have shown a steady increase in the use of the library. The growth of the population, the opening of the East Branch and more libenr I rules are responsible for these changes. There should be a greater increase than there has been and in order to obtain this at least two things are necessary, just as they are in any work or business: first,—to have the "goods," and second,—to let the people know that you have them. The war helped to bring libraries into prominence. People who had never heard of the American Library Associa- tion saw it mentioned first as an independent organization which needed money to supply the soldiers and sailors with books and then as one of the seven sister organization,,; in the United NNIar Work campaigns, _TNIen who had never taken a book from their home town libraries found their way to the camp libraries or watched for the hospital librarian on her morning rounds. They saw lists of technical books which said that they could find the same books in their own public libraries and that we night not be-found wanting when those 1-nen returned, we bought -many of those technical books. These books supplied a need of the older men, one of whom said, "I did not know that you had this kind of books, I thought You had only fiction and children's books." We have this idea to combat as i,%,ell as the idea that is expressed by the patrons of tv�ro-cent-a-day lending libraries that "you can never get new book-8 at the public library." We have many new books and would buy more and duplicate copies if the appropriation 12 WATERTOWN PUBLIC L113RARY warranted uq in doing so, but with the advancing cost of books, periodicals and binding, the number of new boobs will grow decidedly smaller unless the am.)ropriation is inuch larger. The Current History cltass conducted under the auspices of the Wonuan's Club met at the library last winter and there N,�i11 be a. similar class this winter, also one conducted for the s600l teachers. Thc: meetings of the Historical Society and the Committees for the Historical Pageant were also held at the library. The room where these meetings are held is ay.a11.rl)lc for other gatherings of an educational or civic nature and it is gratifying to feel that the library is filling its place in the communit-v in more trays than one and it is to be hoped that the work will continue to broaden. Acknowledgments The library owes its thanks again to the N—Tassachusetts Free LibraryCommission and the neighboring libraries for their generous loans of boobs. To the booksellers who kindly sent US children's backs for the exhibition during; Children's Book 'Week, and the pupils in the ninth grades who made us book troughs, our thanks are also due. Much of the success of a library rests upon the stag and I appreciate the goad work done by nay assistants and the en- thusiasm shown by therm in any new tuidertak~ing. I also realize how much .I ovve to you, The Tnistees, for your 111Ux+est and cordial support.. Respectfully submitted, LYDrA r .

To tfre School Conniz Vee: Your Chairman herewith respectfully presents his annual report for the year ending December 31, 1919. While our schools have sctffered inane- inconveniences daring the past year from their otter-cronsled conditions, yet the quality of the work has been well rnailitained, and the teaching force has shown great loyalty through a most tang period; with .small salaries to draw from, with ever increasing expenses, anti extremely limited purchasing; power for their money. The influx of 320 new scholars on the opening day of school in September presented a severe problem of housing, which the committee solved by a change in sessions ,and by the employment of additional teachers; many rooins in different sections of the Town have been used on a hero-shift plan, sea t1int all the scholars have received instruction, the:hours have been somewhat short- ened, yet under the enforced conditions this Was unavoidable. Parents have doubtlerss had to hear a part of the inconvenicncL- occasioned by the twu-session flan inaugurated, but for the: most past they have seen that the committee were doing them- nest tinder adverse eirctunstmices. The large increase at school opening— 320 — car eight full rooms, folly 100% more than the rate of increase of the last five years trill show the necessity of increased acccrr iodations most forcibly. With the completion of the new annex to the. Hosmer School, the enlarged building kv ll contain but two vace n.t roams, which at best can be depended on only to take the (.)verflow from the other remaining eiglitce;n ruanis in the structure. Watertown, Hke many other rnunicipal1ties, is so pressed by heave financial requirements and many nnbre or less Urgent problems, that she has been unable, though the citizens are Lui- a WATERTOWN PUBLIC SCHOOLS usually loyal, to keep pace with the -g-ro,%ing needs of the schools. The-need of a new building for a Junior High School is impera- tive at this tin-1a, to afford much -needed relief in the Marshall Spring School, wliere thirteen classes are housed in nine morns., and to relieve the crowded condition in the High School proper. A building of at least sixteen TOOMS should be prmided at the earliest possible moment, to meet this exigency, With the Pomibility of an increase another Fall of similar proportions to that of the Fall of 1919, the outlook is a scrinus, one, and the Town cannot act too soon. The school population of the public schools now approaches . 3,200 — and has near])- trebled in twenty years. VV hile the Totem has been liberal in the past in the salaries paid to its teaching force, and two years ago raised the ma'Ximum for teachers in the graded schools to $950.00 — a maximum which accorded favorably with that Maid in May, I()19, bl, some. tiventy-five municipalities, teaching, as a profession, is too POOTly IXlid, and under the present conditi0iis of living, with the higgh cost and the grolaring demands of the conunercial world at high wages, there is -need of a very substantial increase in their salaries, if we can hope to retain the sera ices of a truly earnest and efficient bade. The Joss of teachers in the public schools of the State and the country at large is alan-ring, alad fewer students are entering our State Normal Schools than formerly, the falling off being at least 357C. in the past year. The loss of teaching force in our schools the last year is nearly double that of the prexious year, and this is chiefly- attzibut�rblc to the inadequate salaries that are paid. Govemor Coolidge, in his late Inaugural Address, has touched on the situation ivith much force. He said, " In oar past solicitude for the pupil we have neglected the teacher. In honor and in compensation the professic4i of teaching is coming to be surpassed by commercial and industrial emplo3,inclit.* * * The value of education itself is diminished unless it can be re- ceived in an attitude of reverence. Unless the teacher amounts to something the pupil gill not amount to anything;, No talent is too high for education, Tio price too great for understanding, REPORT or THIR c'1'tAIRI AN 7 In view of the increased expense of owiducting our educational work, and the crucial poliod through which we are passin-, your Chairman woulci request for the Committee the lultest and heartiest co-operation of parents, teachers, and of all of Our citizens, that our schools may b vc to our children the best facilities and service that -we ha-..7e in our power to bestow. Respectfully submitted, SUPERINTENDENT REPORT. To the Scl ool Cominiltee: I lzcrelvith submit my twelfth report. This report is the eight,--second of the printed reports of the .`school Committee of IAVatertown. School Accommodations. I have in my last reports called attention to the continual growth of the'I`c nz and the needs in the various sect cn5, The war conditions delayed the building of the annex to the Towner School until the prCsCnt vea:r, and now it is nearfi-w completion, making a ti�venty-rooii-i building, 11, rhen this b-uilding is opened ten of the twelve new rt orns will be used at once, leaving but two rooms for 1,rowth in this section of the Town. The western section of the Town has also showed quite a re- markable growth so that the 11+Iarshall Spring School, -duel, cares for the: children, of the northern and western scalom, has at.present thirteen teachers or classes cecupying nine rooms; in othQr -words four reams aid eight classes are operating on Dart time, The High School is at present fi3led nearly to its capacity Nvith over 400 pupils, so that relief-k%rill be needed, here soon. The solution of the whole situation seerns to be to divide the Town in two precincts anti erect a Junior High School in the co,graphical center of each precinct. We would then be able to house the two upper grades from the elementary 5;•steni and the Freshman Mass from the Iligh School in junior T-li€h school In former reports I have -Tritt.en at len-th of the, i-rzerits of the Junior High School, etc. It would seem then, that the: first school to be built ivould be in the geographical center of the westeni precinct of the Town. SPccial Teacher of M'riiiiig: In no subject taught in the public schools has the faddist caused greater confusion than in writing. S S1 PERrXT1;iDkXTt5 RP1'€]R Vertical „? ;� Slant ", " Medial Slant ", each has had its day, and illegible writing with all slants fs the result. An earnest effort is being made to correct this defect in our school training. It is a pleasure to report that we have secured, as a special teacher of writing, Mr. A. ' . Clark who has developed what sums to us the simplest, ri,ost practical, and effective method of teaching this subject,tbat has yet been presented, He began the work,xith only one day a week to baring about the desired result but this year Ills tune has been increased to two days a week and the results already observed justify the increase in time, Parent-Tea-chers Assocrrr ions.: No existing auxilrary organiza- tion has such large possibilities for helpfulness to the schools as the Parent-Teachers Associations. While attempts inayF be made at any time to use an association for personal or political ends a clearly defined purpose, well understood by the raember- ship and the exercise of proper vigilance by loyal learlers will present much exploitation. The primary purpose of these as- sociations should he educational. Through their activities; parents and teachers Loth ]earn how better to do their respective parts its promoting the complete development of the child, Incidentally, the activities of the association should be social and inspirational. Watertown has a 'Fell organized association in the central district from which much is expected. Physical f-Felfar : No subject in our school program should receit,c more attention that that which lias to do with the physi- cal welfare oE our children. In 1913, the subject of phyesical training was introduced into our High School and a man was :secured to teach the boys and a woman to teach the girls. Not until. this year, however, was the subject introduced systcrna.ti- cally into the clernentary schools of Watertown. Early this fall 'Hiss Grace: Monahon of Waltharn, one well trained for this work, was engaged and put in charge of this department. Already successful results aro observed and we look for much in the future, Clerical Ass stance: The number of applications for working certificates has increased materially since the new labor late went into effect. It is not generally appreciated that every time a person between 14 and 21 years of age msiding in Water- town changes €:rnployers, he or she must claim the time and intelligent attention of some person in the office of the Superin- 10 WATZMTOWN PUBLIC SCHOOLS tendent of Schools, and may because of somebody's ignorance or neglect, require more than his sluare of attention on repeated occasions, before securing, the final release for a new job. The burden of this -work has became so g-reat that it interferes Seri- ougly inth the main business of the office and if it is to continue in any such proportion must necessitate increased office farce. The enforcement of schoot attendance, of which this werk- is really a part constitutes a separate branch of service and might well be established in a separate office. Ainaricanizaiion: The greaLest problein that faces American democracy is the orientation of adult immigrants, e-Tecially those with tongue, customs, ideas, and ideals foreign to ours. The schools will guide.their children. Vast efforts are bellig put forth to handle the adult proposition. The great difficulty is to get the individual in the position where he will take advantage of the opporLti ni ties afforded; also tc) afford the right opportul-ii- tics, -Urging has been tried and failed. Possibly the only solu- tion is compulsory -requirement that all who -remain in America must learn the language. This may seem contrary to our idealistic, liberal, political pbiloscphy. The problem of this cDuntry is to get together people of different races, creeds, con- ditions and aspirations and merge them into one. There are millions of illiterates in our cowArv. We have in Watertown a large-n-umber of non-English-speaking people. If the America .-5 of the future is to be as good an America, to say nothing about being better, as the America oaf to-day, the Arnwicanization problem must be solved.. This is a task worthy of our nation., in fine-with her best principles, her real spirit of Ainerical zation. It should be tackled in a spirit of duty, obligation and pri gilegv, not Bear. RecentLegislution- An Act, relative to the establishment and maintenance of Continuation Schools: Section One. Every city alld town i-hi which, du-ring a calendar Year ending December 31, two hundred or more minors under sixteen Nrears of age are regularly employed not less than six hours per day shall. establish at the beginning of the next school year and maintain Continuation Schools. Section Three. The required attendance at said schools shall be at the rate of not less than four hours per week. SU,PERT NTLN D�,NTT I S REPORT 11 In accordance with Section. Seven. This Act was accepted by vote of citizens of lVatertown at the state election November 7, 1919. The State Board of Education is already at work securing a record of the number of certificates issued by neighboring towns for those persons who are toning in Watertown. When the returns are completed it is quite certain that Watertown will be required to maintain such a school, and the money to finance the same shoiild be included in our school budget for 1920.

Inasmuch as this is "an Act to provide frown the distribution of a portion of the income Lax and of the income of the Mas- sachusetts School Fund, for the purpose Df improving the public schools," it would seen-i that this stun should be credited to the school department rather than to treasury receipts WATFoRTOWN PUBLIC SCHOOLS where it may be spent for streets or most any ptM)ose Other than schools.
