HOLL ND � I it SELECTMEN'S REPORT The Selecti-non respucifti Hy submit Lo the 6tizens of AVater- town the following report for the year ending December 31,1923. Town Meetings Following the adjournment of the regular A-farch ineeting, only one special town meeting was deemed: necessary this year. This speeial nic*eting was held near the close of the year to make the usual departmental transfers. Not,xithstanding the lessur number of meetings, the sm-ne delay and difficulty in securing the attendance of a quonim, characteristic of the present town ineuting form.,was experienced. The coninuttee previously, appointed W consider certain changes in the town meeting act reported at this meeting, and recornmenclud, as of prime itriportance, that the act be amended by striking out the requirement " a majority of the town _rneet- ing rnernbora qh,--Lll constitute a quorain for doing business." ''lie meeting approved the conunittee's recommendations and they are now the subject matter of a petition before the legis- lature. DOUbtless the removal of the requirement for a majority attendance to constitute a (Itiorum will promote prompt atten- tWn to the business of the meetuigs, It will be interesting to observe, however, how much it will improve this, so-called, repiescataLive " town meeting. Witaess the last town mect- ing when the rear of the ball was filled with interested non-mcm- ber citizens, powerless to express their will by a vote in the town niecting, MAL, nearly one-half of the town meeting mem- bers displaycd their disinterestedness by their absence. Witness also the distinctly political action in the town i-necting the Past year, of certain members hostile to the present Selectmen_ Thesemembers, marshalled under the banners of curtain floor leaders whose rules hatl been. carefully assigned in partisan gatherings, by excellent team -work, imposed their views- upon, thu niceting. Doubtless, these N' Ipnvs are " representative." Certainly thr-Y %vere well planned and coordinated. is 1YATERTO'4VN TOWN REPORT Ifighway Department The policy of carrying on all work iri this department by the employ inert of town labor was continued throughout the year. That this policy is not well established Within other town departments is e-6deat from the fact that a contract for excavating for water mains-tms let by the department entnisted with that work to a private contractor, and this at a time when a large nunibar of town laborers were idle clue to the town meet- ing denying the appropriK tion for winter drainage constmetion recoinrnended by the Selec.,L nen. The weakness of the osten- sible reason for denying this appropriation " that the winter is no time to do sucli work and obstruct our streets " —Is emphasized by the present mild open season. This appropria- tion was sought for this work in November. In the early months of the year, the department was con- fronted NNith the most serious snow conditions in the memory of the oldest inhabitwit. Day after day, and night after night, every* available man worked through long hours and witli untiring energy, with a full realization of the importance of keeping the streets open to travel. Dulin; all this period the - department also aided in keeping the people supplied with coal, and many urgent and sol-ious situations werc relieved. Further- more, the heavy snows a.ddccl to the difficulty and expense of collecting ashes and paper, and the absence of complaints is proof that the department well fulfilled its obligations. IVItich credit is duo: every man to the department for his cheerful and ready response to the call for service dtu-ing this arduous period. During the year, all work of admiatistrat.ion and construe- tion was placod in charge. of Mr. Maynard, town engineer and superintendent of streets. We are glad to take this opportunity to express our cGnfiflencc in his ability and competency- to satisfactorily carry on this work. Street Construction Not all the street construction plazined for in the spring vas earned out this vear. Sy'cwnore Street; Nvas built for a stun considerably less than the estimated cost... The material of the old roadivay- was Rt-PORT OF SELECTMEN 19 found to be excellent for surerade and the esfi-rnated amount ()f grlvcl suj)gr�j& was not required. FurtheTinore, it was con- clu(led that four inches of crushed stone instead of s-L" inclies as originally esti-i-nated, woTild be sufficient. The saving effected on Sycamore Street afforded the Select- men the opportunity to consider the widening of that portion of Arlington Street between Mt. A-Liburi-i and Belmont Streets. Cons;iderable time was fruitleSSIV Wellt ill tttt-cll-lPting to nego- tiate with the representatives of tile PEITICtnist land, bence, the Selectmen abandoned the idea of seeming a grant of land on the Nvesterly side. The questial-I of widening on the easterly side INas then, taken up and ag7eemelits to transfer the necessary land �v-em,� sectired. The Selectment;.11,-e this of to .express appreciation to bliss H. Adelaide Coolidge, A-Ir. Millran Freshetian and Mr. Isador Ziernali for the generous PUblic -i, I ernell ,pirit which ii ade possible this important public improN t As a consequence of these land gifts, the easLerly side of Arlington Street between Mt. Aubtirn and Belmoilt Streets has been Nvidenud to a pemarent line. The. portion of Arlingt011 Street between '-VIt. Aubtirn and '.�Japjewood Streets, has been fim5hed to a -%vi of fifty feet. The balance of the street IS forte- feet wide. A heavier type of collstnictinn than first planned teas adapted, six inches instead of fot.Lr iliches of crushed stone, rolled, bein,- used. The cost of widening and construction �tV',JS CCTIS--'dCTably greater than the original estimate, brit ill the opinion of the Selectmen, be-cause of the importance of this link U' I its street system, it Nvas zu-nply justified, even at the expense, of deferring .other street construction of net so great urgency. All streets were built of macadam construction at an average cost of one dollar and 91 x t�--IjAne cents per square yard. Betterment Streets The following streets were built under the Betterment Act: yj 7-, Cottage, G i Ibert, Ch apinan, H ersorn, -ill d a 1 xortian of 01neY. 'I'lle cost of constructing these streets exceeded the estimates, principally in Cottage, Chapman, and CIlbcrt Streets- The subsoil of Cottage Street was found to be very soft and ,8,andy,andrequired considerable extra excavationand subgrading 20 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT with gravel before entshed stone could be applied, It was also necessary to beep the street: Opel, duritzr; calistruct,on, which to the e,%pense. The estimate for the constTuction of Chapman Street was Uxn'piled in January, when the street was buriecl t.1ilder heavy '91") ", 11",11 in9; it in"Possible to cross-section the street for careful estinia,tu. Furthermore, the grades were lowered beyond the first estmiates and the sideivallcs -%vere rough graded, involving VUY- heavy cuts not originally contemplated. Gilbert Street was estimated for t avel construction;instead, however, macaclan7 was used for this street, the same as on all o lier streets constructed this year. Notwithstanding the rviditrnnal expense involved, the aver- age cast of constructing the bet.t;erinent streets was two dollars and twenty-seven cents per square. yard — a very satisfactory figure. Proposed Fork The large amount of new buildings undertaken and com- pleted the last year, compels larger and continued outlays for street construction, drains, sewer extensions, and lnouse connec- tions. At t1le same time, some of the older streets where abutters have borne the burden of taxes for many years witliout the compensation of good streets, good sidewalks, and adequate drainage should not be overlooked. Highway Maintenance The prompt repair of streets and highways is one of the greatest econ€rnies that can be practiecd. A small repair gang should be assigmcd to this work, whose duty it would be to con- stantly- patrol the streets and fill and repair boles as promptly as possible. Additional Bell should also be assigned to the:. cleaning of crossliigs and gutters on Mt. Aubuni, North Beacon and Galen Streets.. Sewer Extensions and Douse Connections As predicted a year ago, building activities were greater than ever before. There were laid 2,560 feet of sewer mains, and 159 contlections were made with private buildings. Due to REPORT Or, SEX.ECTXIEN 21 the mild weather, there has been no let-up in new building con- struction, and already several new clervelopnicnts have liven brought to the attention of the selectmen, which indicate even greater iiew construction than ever before. Ashes. and Paper This work, dui: to the; large increase in the number of new. homes, is constantly increasing. Without folloving this work closely, it is impossible to appreciate how it is growing. At the same time, our dumps are becoming exhai_i4ed and the time is not far distant when the disposal of ruhhish will become an acute problem. The past year new houses for the acconmada-- tiarz of 329 f-,unilics have been erected 120 more families than proVided for in 1022. Garbage With only a few weeks' notice, the collection and disposal of garbage xvas Lhrust upon the highway department at the annual town ineeting. Tho complete breakdown in garbage collection last year, the c buination of years of unsatisfactory g handling by the board of Health, made imperative a radical change. The appropriation for this work was made at the meeting lic-ld April 11, and provided for operations to begirt Nla,y N),. In this brief tinic a transfer station had to be erected, special type of wagans built, and the dupartment organized. The promptness with which the work ivas carried out and the com- pleteness,of the arrangements are best testified to by the general satisfaction with the present senice as expressed throughout the town The work of this branch Of the highway department deserves the highest commendation. The truck purchased for this work is larger than required, and we recommend that it be transferred to highways work -where it is much ne de<d, and a strialle*r truck for garbage work provided. Growth of Town and Valuation In 1922, there; were 4 N huilduig pen-nits issued for dwellings, garages, stores, factories and miscellaneous buildings, X�ritli ail estimated probable cast of 81,474,205. 22 AVATERTOWNT TOWN REPORT In deterniining the valuatioa of the town as of April 1, 1.923, the assessors found an increase as follows: 1922 19 IM Increase Buildings SID,371, 100 410 $20,741,160 00 IS1,370,060 00 Land 7,283,300 00 7,-)-18,660 00 65,360 00 Personal Estate 4,040,411 00 4,174,900 07 1,14,489 07 -Resident Bards Tax 107,490 00 572 29 *106,917 71 *Decrease. In 1923, there were 508 building permits issued for new con- struction Nirith an estimated probable cost of A.2,4.30,925.00. It would appear, therefore, reasonable to expect that the assessors might find this adcEtioval valuation at least in 1924. Fire Department Particular attention is called to the -report of the engineers of tlac New England Insurance Excliange which accompanies the report of the Chief of the Fire Depeartme n t. The M otoniziri g of the deparLynent, the additio-nat connection with the 1-let-ro- politan water system and other improvements resulted in raising the toivn in the -rating schedule from class " C " to class " B " -with a consequent three per cent reduction in rate. Further improvement in -the CkPaTtl-J!6A and in the water system Nvill result in better fire protection and a still lower insurance ratc. Police We wish to especially commend Chief John F. Milinore, his officers and men for efficiency in the performance of their d-uty. Thc�y ha-,Yc ,-i%-eta many hours extra. service Without additional compensation. The pay increases given this department are, we believe, well merited. The smatt number of applicants in recent examinations prove that our scale of wages has not been adequate to attract good police material. Our traffic problem is growing more scrious from year to year. The direct automobile -route west is t1irougl-i our town, The ntunber of school children is constantly increasing, and they must be safeguarded in crossing our highways. We have 26 niiles of streets to be patrolled with 20 iren work- RMIORT OF SELECTMEN 23 in- in three shifts— eiglit from 8 a-Tii. to 6 1).

These are chances we cannot afford to take. The present combination aii-ibulanm and patrol wagon has oiallved its usefulness and should soon be replaced, It is a constant source c)f expense for repairs, and frequently when needed most it is not available, for use. We have a roorn on the first floor of the police station not in use, which could easily be converted into a first aid room. The guard room is now used for that purpose, but it is not the proper place for it, The changie could be made -with a sipall outlay and the necessary equipment provided and kept ready for emergency use, ,]OH N A.

The Finance Committee offers an apology for the lateness in the issuing of their report, but we feel that the extra time has been worth a great deal to the Town, as Nve have gone into the, budget in a very thorough manner and have investigated the conduct of different boards and departments very thor- oughly., several hearings in our effort to give the Town the full valt1,; t '�P.v, ry dallar appropriated.. The request_ 1 ropriations. submitted by the different departments, togeti, the amounts asked for in the 'arrant, amount to " 10,978.36. your Committee, de" � to 1Leep the tax rate as low as possible consistent with the �..ual needs of the Town, reconi- mend a budget calling fdr an a-1,"Topriation of 1,419,774.56- The estimated receipts, avail*le balances and b0rrowings, are tabulated below.

Salaries IN 0 incre-ases in salaries are recommended by the Committee and we feel that the Committee on change in fonn of Town Goveniment, if appointed under Article .97, should at least consider the consolidation of some departments which would reduce the number of heads of departments, and also the nurnher of clerks, and increases should be, considered under the consolidation. The Town Clerk's salary is put back to the amount received before 1922, this being done by the Committee because, the compensation of the, clerk, taking the fees received and the salary, amount to something mer $3,000, and the clerk rcquestF, a straight salary of $2,700. An article in the Warrant calls for the turning of all fees over to the Town an(I if this is Cl done some adjustment of the salary �%-Ul have to be made. Pensions The attention of the citizens is called to an article in the warrant asking that the heads of certain: departments be made eligible for pensions. 'Phis Conunittee feels that the matter of pensions is one that is being carried to excess and we recommend that a committac be appointed to Invostigate and report on the wilole subject at a Iater Town Nfeeting. 36 WATERTC1WN TOWN REPORT Police Your Committee,has disapproved an appropriation for two new patxoimen under Article 10, as we belie-ve with the extra number of special police and the additional automobile the work of the departiment will be carried on satisfactorily. Cemeteries The Cornr ittee has rccommended an appropriation to grade and lay out the section of RUdgelawn Cemetery adjacent to the new gates, and a sula-coininit;tee of the finance Com- mittee has been appointed to consult with the Cemetery Department to ascertain if the income cannot be increased so that the department may be put upon a self-supporting basis. Sidewalks The Committee has recommended no appropriation for a sidewalk can INInin Street :from Lexington to Olney Street, feeling that no new sidewalks shmild be built in any section of the Town unless the Abutters pay their proportionate share. Betterment Streets The swn of S24,00{} has been recoinnicaded for construction of the following streets cinder the Betterment ,Act: Chapman Street, Cottage Street, Gilbert Street,, Horsani Street, Olney Street, Palfrey Street. Highway Construction The Selectmen have advocated the construction of the following ,streets this year and the Committee -recommend the appropi iation of $2},000 for those named; Arlington Street, Mt. Atibum to Belmont, 1,500 feet; Boylston Street, Mt. Auburn to Concord, 550 feet; Forest Street, Palfrey South, 400 feet; Sycar pure Street, Belmont to Town fine, 1,600 feet; Water Street, Galen to Gas Co., 000 feet. F1nnNcE co,,kn-j xrTEE REFO T 37 Water The Water Board has asked for newconstruction can Keenan land, Belmont Street, Chapman Street, North Beacon Park, Wilson Avenue, Gilbert Street, Bancroft Street; and for the reph'Icement of cement lined piles on the following streets: Cottage Street, 1,000 feet', Forest Street, 300 feet; Arlington Street, 900 feet; XIt. Auburn Street, 1,400 feet; '"rhInut Street, 600 feet; Cross- Street, 300 feet; and the Committee recommend appropriations to cover t;1lis construction. Garbage Disposal The Finance Committee, after several conferences with the Selectmen and the Board of Health, held a hearing at which the two Boards were invited to be present, together with all of the Bidders, under the new specifications. The lids ranged all the way from 813,000 to $30,000, accordim- to the method of collectican. After having the various Bidders tell how they proposed to collect and dispose of the garbage if given the contract, your Committee has reached the conclusion that the only prover way to have the garbage collected is to turn it over to tl�e selectmen to be done by Town Labor, and so recom oend. New cquipment will have to be purchased this year, but after 1923 the work can lie done cheaper and better than by a contractor. x Tabulated Schedule of Appropriations ' Unpaid .

REPORT OF THF, CHTFF OF THE FARE DEPARTMENT To the Seledwen: Gentlemen Y hereAr.th submit the following report for the Fire Department for the year -nding D,�cember 31, 1923. The total membership of the department: is thii-tly-four nicn, as follows: One permanent ch1cf, two permanent captains, one mechanic, twenty-seven permanent ladder and hosenien. three callinen. No additional men ha.-,Te been apnointed since 1920. Fires and Alarms During the year the a ariiis for all catises have shown a large increase over previous gears as all records have been broken ?A total of 284 alarms have been responded to durilICT the year. Ninety-three; of these alarms were bell alarms and one hundicd and ninety-one Nvere still alarms. This is an increase of thirty-nine alarms over 1922. While tl�c alarms shove an increase the losses remain very ` low considering the e�.trenzc cost of replacement due to fire.

This sur- vey Was very thorough and I trust all citizens will become 50 REPOT 4F FIRE 111-i-PART-MENT �1 familiar with the facts by reading their report which follows the report of this department.. Some of their minor recommendations can be taped care of throug gh the annual appropriation but the larger recommenda- tions will have to be taken care of by special appropriations. The work- of this department has, increased considera.l Ix, because of ne-%haz rcls and new regulations of the Department of Public Safety which require constant inspection for v-hich there is no allowance, still we are regta,ired to do the work. I recommend that additional ivater supplti' be pro-,-idea for fire extinguishing purposes on Common Street Hill. The, water pressure at this location is extremely low and in the event of a serious fire iTe wntild be se,,£cre:ly Handicapped. During the past summer the d1d stezuner was used during the clay to assist in providing water for donxestic purposes but at night this service was discontinued. I further recommend the appointment of four additional pennanent men tG the department on April 1. During the vacation period frorn IN-lay to October three meii are constantly off duty= wbicb reduces the efficiency of the manual force which has never been up to the requirements of the underwriters. I also recommend that a civil serViee examination be held for lieutenants and that two xnen from the elialble list be appointed to this office. The tremendous increase in building construction and population necessarily demand an increase in our manual force, properly officered and I recommend that this be carried out as far as financiall}* possible. I reheat my recommendation of previous years that the addition to the. Bast End Fire Station be built this year and a ladder truck. histalled there. One ladder truck for a toy;gin of our size is not a safe margin for ladder equipment. The department should Beep apace with the -,rowth of the town. During the Mast two years no hose for replacement purposes has been providud for. I recoinmoiid the purchase of one thousand feet of hose this year. The present ladder truck is now in its nint;li year of sen ice and is still equipped. With the original tires. "These tires will 52 WATERTe)WN TOWN REPORT not go through another winter, therefore, I recornmend are appropriation to renew the tires on 61s truck this year. The chie:f's car U0111 in use has be-en in service for the past eight 31ears. Dtuing this tiree the car has been used constantly an inspection, emergency purposes and also for fire extinguish- ing purposes. This car if run another year should go to the repair shop for a thorotigh oveprhatili-ng and painting. Most of the %work nece}scan, would be to practically rebuild the motor which I do not believe advisable. Therefore, I recom- mend that 81,600 he appropriated for a new chief's car. 10emljers of the department continue to do all necessary repairs to buildings and property of the Toitin in the care of this department. The apparatus is kept in the highest possible condition by the rriec anician, No work in tiAs line is done outside except repairs nceessitating shot} work. Ire addition to this work the mechanician is rewired to do the regular work of a fireman. It inay be of interest to Imow that the department main- tains six automobiles at an average cost per rear of one hun- dred and tn•entY-five dollars each. This figure includes gaso- line, ails, batteries and repairs or replacements, which is considered an extremely low cost. The disci,oline cf the department is at its highest and the me Tubers continue to show an interest in their work The response to�ahgnrrs by members while off duty leas been excrallent. Many hours of t.xtra work have been performcd with no promise of reward. Thcir willingness to serve in any capacity at all times I attribute to the encouragement and support Lr ven them by the citizens in general. In their behalf I thank the citizens for the st1Pl 01t given. I also take this opportunity to publicly thank the Members, of the department for their cc-operation dtmn,' the bast year. 11 il-u larevetition work has been continued throughout the year, ivith t encro-Lis co-operation on the part of our citizens. In connection with this urorlc many hazardous and unsightly buildings have been removed or repaired. In behalf of the town I thank our neighboring departments for their assistance: and co-operation.

Gentlemen: The report of the Inspector of Pales and Wires for the vear 1023 is herewith submitted. The police and fire-alarm des opt Lexington Street, between plain Street and Belmont Street, were reconstructed. New cross-arms were installed on the poles on Belmont Street between Svcamore Street and Lexington Street and new wires run can these cross-arms. New arms were installed and new Noires nm can part of Orchard Street between At Iarion Road and Carroll Street. New cross-arms were put on the pales can Carroll Street and the �%Tires there were repairecl. New cro."- s were installed on poles from Co neon Street to Hall Avenue and X ew wtiires run from'Common Street across Lovcll°s Fiald to Hall Avenue. New crass-a.nns were installed and new wires run on Howard Street and part of Pleasant Street. The fire-alarm circuit can Spring Street and Marshall Street -isms also re-wired. All this work was necessitated by the: sleet storm oF November, ID21. We reconstructed the lines as far as our appropriation permitted but much more work niust be clone to the lines before airy are back on the 1920 basis. It was nemssar_v to change the underground locations of branch lines on Millin Street to make clearance for the Ediscn Company to use the first holes can the folloi�ring streets. Chestnut Street, Green Street, _Virhites Avenue, Cuba .Struct, \il rtle Street acid Trench. Street. For this work we used 1800 feet of four-conductor cable, nrith pipe and bends. ` This had to be done before the Edison Car pang= could remove their overbead mires. The twelve-conductor cable in Arsenal Street between. Mount Auburn Street and Taylor Street, which was installed 71 72 WATL;RTOWN TOWN REPORT in 1911, was broken down by the frost. This old cable; had to be removal and replaced Avith now cable. Three tappers were transferred to new locations and two police boxes and two fire-alarm loxes were transferred to new Peres. All fire, policc and cable boxes were painted and all cross-arms iArerc painted and stenciled and the fire-alarm boxes were tested frequently. New Construction Now, six-pin crass-areas were set tip and new utunber 9 three-braid wire run on Avon Road, Common Street and Sunset Road and a new police box was installed on Avon Road. New cross-arms were set up on Bellevue Road and neiv n ires run and a new fire-alarm box was installed at the comer of Dellevue Road and Barnard Avonue. New fire-alarm loxes were in- staIled at the earner of Orchard Street and Corrrxrton Street, at the corner of Warren Street and Lexington Street and at the corner of Hamden Avenue and Hovey Street. New cross- arms were set -up and new i ires rttn on BoveyT Street and Orchard Street, bet'4 mn Carrell Street and Hovey Street, in order to connect up the now box installed at the corner of Hamden Avenue and I-lovey Street. Interior Wiring Interior wiring made great strides in Watertown in 1923. About seven thousand inspections were made and six launched and fifty permits for current issued to the. Edison ComIjanyr. There are a great many electrical contractors wiring in lVater- toi and the proper inspection of their work requires a great deal of attention. Many times the Inspector bas to male three or more trips to a job before the work is passed. The new LTTrdenvriters' Rules for Interior Wiring, in force January 1, will tale arp inuch n-lore of the Inspector's titre than for- merly, as every socket in a building; must be tested before the inspection is complete. It will also require more help to take c- re of it. The tnick now used for litre warp cannot be used at the same tinac on inspection work. In carder to facilitate the work of tt c Department there is urgent need for an auto- REPORT OF WIRE DEPARTMEINT 73 mobile to be used by the Inspector an interior inspCCtion work. The instruments and desk at the Police Station are prac- tically worn out. The desk. is very old and the G amew el l Company no longer make Darts for this type of desk. A netwT police desk should be installed and all the electrical instru- ments there now should be replaced with new and up-to-date equipment. The Towii of WatertoNvu has forty old fire-alarm boxes which should be rq)laced by new and up-to-date lames. These old poxes were purchased when, cost and not service and effi- ciency was the consideration. Noiv the chief requixemei-it of a fire-alarm box is cf iciency. 1f the door of one of the old boxes is open before a test hell is sent in or after a fire is rung out, and is not closed betweert that tune and the next alarm, the boy: will not work. This a condition which should bo remedied as soon as possible. These antiquatud boxes are not at all in keeping; %%rith those which the Town has histalled r in recent years, nor are they capable of giving the. ser%ice our Tmvii requires. The Cam+ewell Company will allow us 20 on each old hox rernoved, snaking a new box mst the Town only 8134. Some of these old boxes should be removed every year until all are replaced by modern boxes. The Town has also out ;rown. the fire-alarm headquarters at the enbTi to house. A fireproof house should be built and fitted _.3r1th the proper equipment for the fire alarm and police signal systems, in order to adequately safegward life and prop- erty. A committee should be appointed to niect with the Inspector and give this subject the attention it deserves. CJttl- t Anburn Street is very poorly lighted and in order to l ght this street properly I recommend that twenty 60 C.P lamps be discontinued and twenty-nine 600 C. P. lamps in- stated. For the proper lighting of 11�1aia Street between Howard Street and the Waltham Line I recommend the dis- continuance of thirwen old 60 C. P. lamps and the installation of twelve GOO C. P. lamps. A 60 C. P. Imnp should also be installed on the first pole; can Colmland Strut. The wires on INIount Auburn Street between Bailey Road and Cottage Street should be placed underground and there should be private telephones at Fire Headquarters on A-la n Street and at 1:n9111e House Nva-ribcr 2 on Mount Aubun-r Street. If the underground work is done we could make provisions for extra wires in the cable to take ease of these telephones. This Nvould also enable Lis to have the Belmont. fire-alarm signal connected at fire headquarters as =11 as at. Station 2. If this underground work is not done very necessary repairs must be made to the line can 'Alounit Auburn Street. I also recommend installing a traffic gong at the fire-alarm box at the junetion of Mount ,Auburn Street and Arsema. Street, to enable the traffic officers to get the alarm and regulate. traffic accordingly. Respectfully submitted, PATRICK J. VAIIEY, Inspector of A r res.

Our of Drts have been rewarded in that our report this year -will show a decrease in the number of arrests for this violation, and diligent survey tends to shoe* that in this Town this erinie is well suppressed. We would appreciate the continued cooperation of the citizens of Watertown in regard to the enforcement of this law. Recommendations It is recommended that the Ford sedan, at present in use, be turned in and replaced. This machine is a valuable asset to the department and has rendered excellent sen-ice, covering the outlying sections of the Town. It has been driven thirty- thousand n-.dles this season. This transfer could be effected for approximately I wish to renew my recommendation of last year that tivelve additional lockers be purchased for the use of the officers, at a cast of approximately 9,180. There are at present but thirteen lockers iii the station to accorm-nodate 26 risen. It is recommended that the three motor--cycles at present . in use In the department be turned in and. replaced. This transfer could lac made for SIX These cycles have added greatly to the efficiency of the department in the: handling of the automobile problem, but the rapid growth of vehicles in the bast f env years n- kcs�t necessary th at we increase the number of motor-cycles from three to five. Two new motor-cycles could be purchased for $624.74. It is recommended that the inner office of the station, now used as a desk room, be remodeller) and converted into a first-aid room. The demand for first-ail at the; Police Station is very great and the present facilities afforded for this work are totally inadequate. It is recommended that a combination ambulance and patrol wagon be provided for use in this depar raent. It is recommended that sips be placed in Deacon. Square directing motorists to the surrounding cities and towns. Fre- quently, during heavy traffic, a motorist will, stop at the, traffic REPORT OF GRIEF OF POLICE $5 past to inquire of the officer the direction to a certain city or town. This causes a congestion of traffic, which could be almost entirely eliniiaated by the erecting of these guide signs. It: is reconunended that spot-lights be installed where it is necessary- for traffic officers to stand at night.. This is necessary for the safety of the officer, and also that the signals given a my be distinctly .seen, It is recommended that traffic pasts be purchased for use at, the: following places: Corner Watertown and Galen Streets. C1omor School and North Beacon Streets. Comer School and Walnut Streets, Corner Waverle}' Avenue and Nlain Street. Corder Church and Main Streets. Cornier Spring and IN-lain Streets.. The above places are dangerous ii7tersectiotas and traffic T)osts wculd serve as a valuable ai(l in the prevention of accidents at tlicso Points, Traffic The constantlyf increasing number of inot+oravehicics on the streets of the 'Town presen is a serious problem,to the citizens, and esl)ecially,-the ebildr n,and is indicative of the future activity which must be expected and which must be; met by the Town. Watcrtown, becausc of its geographical location and ex- ccllent streets, has become the center for through tr*.Lffic to surroumling cities and towns. Its location on the Boston Post Road brings through the Town the mentor tragic from New Yor1c, Hartford, Springfield and Worcester. During the past year two hundred and sixty-four automobile accidents occurred on the streets of `4'LraWrtoi-m. Eight lives have been sac-IC iced because of these accidents during the same: period. Experience has shown that automobile fatalities and other traffic accidents are preventable, but only at the expense of traffic remilation. It is desirable that we frankly face the fact that uaider existing conditions the citizens of the Town are riot recab ng ade grate protection from traffic huards. The pedestrian is, in many cases, to blarne through carelessly stepping from the curb into moving traffic, running across 86 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT the street behind a street car, and otlierxvise faili,19 to use proper caution. C,Jjij(jrejj, especially, presciat a scrious problem. One-third of the 1)crsons killed are cj7ij(jrc11, -Ln(i in many cases they -Ixerc struck down by suddenly rush-hig into the path of an automobile, More educational work should or were playing in the street. I M be given in the whools-and the homes to the children, warning them of this danger, and especially cautioning tlicin never to play in the Streets. It liar been C(-ijjulu,-,jjrely don-nonstrated that there is no mechanical device iri existcrce. which can regulate traffic to the sarne, LdValltage and effectively as a traffic policeinan. This is a Teco-nixed fact, �jnd beilIg so it is @A)solutcly necessary that the number of policernen elevated to traffic duty be inate- rially increased. The more men there are available for the directing of traffic, it is fair to ass-w-ne, the less con-1-10sti0n there will be and also will result in a reduction of the number of accidents. It i,; imperative, therefore, tNat the present Conditions i-equire further police regulation, and for that purpose I rec- ol-aniend thy: appointment of six additional officers for traffic dt,tv, Nvlticl-I necessitate an appropriation of $8,565.48. I Reports received frcm other cities and towns whose aPPro- priations leave:increased show tji-,it same has been made necessary by reason of increased traffic work. Conduct of Officers The members of the c1cpartment, kvith a very few CxCePti011s, have shown that they are working for its best interests, and I desire to express my appreciation of their efforts in this respect. Conclusion In conclusion. I Nvish to thank the justice of the Second Distiict Court, the Clerk of said Court, and the Honorable Board of Selectmen for tire valuable assistance renderc'.J during die year.

A drain vvas laid the entire length of this street, which still be the main cutfall drain for this entire section of the town when new streets are built. Water Street Water Street was reconstructed for a length of 1,050 feet of brolcorl stone and asphalt. Water Street has amble catch basins to take care of surface water. 87 8S WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Axlingtoa Street Arlington Street was reconstructed of broken stone and tar for a lcrigth of 1.,500 feet from Belmont to Mt. Auburn Streets, and said. street was brought to an established grade. .\,lost of the subgrading was done by a Keystone steam shovel rented for the purpose, and subgrading on this street was completed o f record time. I would recommend the Town Purchasing a Key steam shovel. One of these machines delivered Ath extra parts costs S.57,000. This maebine is the nest of its kiiid for subgrafling streets, digging flitches, moving snow, loading trucks or carts at the pit, and can be equipped with a clans shell or orange peel bucket for excavating. These macbiizes travel on their own power, and will certainly increase the efficiency of the department. The cast of operating this machine is no greater than. the ordinary steam shovel.

All lines have been inspected several tirnes dtiring the year, and any lines leaving a, lesser gradient than others have been cleaned and flushed. Our appropriation has been inadequate to properly take. care of all this work. Beery year lines are extended and building services added so that more attention is constantly needed. In 1922 [hare were one hundred forty sewer connections made and in 192 there were one Hundred fifty-mine. This will give you seine idea of the increase in building in this town. At present there seems to be no let up in the number of connections that dill be required. With the money appropriated for Robbins Road sey4-er, we have excavated Robbins Road noA'herly from Coltunbia Street, and about one hundred fifty feet of this line was through ledge and required a grcat deal of bla,stin'g.

The new carts were designed by the Engineering Department. The iron bodies were built bir the Roberts Iron.W.Orlts of Cambridge and the rutnuing gear was made at the McLean wagon factory in North Reading. The transfer station was built at the site of the old ptunping station in West Watertown. The transfer station has been Visited by many officials of outside towns and cities and all say it is the most complote and efficient station of its kind. A contract was made and let to a Lcxington farmer, who was the highest; bidder, for the removal of the garbage from Town., for the sun of $1,700 a year. Evcrything was done in about: thirty days from the data our funds were a-va.iliable and all was reacly to do the work when the day arrived for our first acollection.

AN'hile his void was liv�ag yet In eel-toes round the pillared dome. Dead! While his blotted page lay vet With themes of State and love of Home." A great heart has ceased to heat. Kindly eyes are closed in eternal sleep. A well-beloved face, but lately lighted with the bloom of vigorous health, beaming with good will to all man- kind, is cold and drawn i,Tith the pallor of death. The: voice that charmed multitudes is forever stilled. A great man has gone to his God. But his memory lives and will endure. Q r ToAvn of Watertown, founded by the Puritans, peopled now by men drawn from many climes and of diverse creeds, a cmi=rnity rich in historic and patriotic achievement, loyal over to State and Nation, pauses today while one and all — Americans to the last drop of our blood--pay a simple tribute of lave and esteem to the memory of our dead Chieftain--the President of all the people—who gave his life for the land he loved. Hoiv truly the poet's words might have been written of him: " Oh, think how to his latest day When Death, just hovering, claimed his prey, With Palinure"s unaltered mood, 206 WATERTOWN TOWN Rt-PORT Firm at his dangerous post he stood, Each call for needful rest repelled, With dying h&nd the rudder held." Patient, considerate.. peace-loving, God-fearing, upstanding, whole-soitled, high-niinded, huinble, our lamented President radiated human kindliness. Urkspoiled by his high office and Cr ver used either to h,Lmass or oppress. ,,.rcat power hene Partisan —in the sense that lie was I)rcd in and con-ffnittud to certain theories of government and policies of administra- tion —lie ncver forgot that lie was President of the whole people, whose spckesinan rather them whose tiler lie chose to be. Misjudged soiliclin-tes, T-notives and purposes misconstrued, misrepresented— as Is the lot of nearly every public rnan — his leadership challenged, his statesmanship decried, yet however deeply he inay have been wounded, there was no spirit of resentment Or retaliation in his heart or censure on his lips. Burdencd beyon(I mortal strength with the crushing cares of State, he never shirked and he never whimpered, but holdin,- his head crect, faced the world each day witb his winning smile, and found time and place in tho midst of his labors for the practice of the little amenities and attentions to these about hirn which marked the Christian gentleman of finest mould. As truly as any soldier who ever died on the battlefield he gave the last full nimsure of his strength that this great Nation, under God, might gow in prosperity, in happiness and in strength at home, and in the estcein and good vill of all the nations of the earth. This was the ideal he cherished, this the vision lie had for his country. It obsessed his soul. It illumined his thoughts. It enriched his sj)eech- It is the heritage and the hope lie has left to the Nation. Henec he loved and was beloved by his fellow country nien to the end. Were a star quenched on high, For saes could its light Still travel, down nwarcl from the sky, Shine on our mortal sight; RECORD OF TOWN MFI-;TFNGS 207 So when a good man dies For ages beyond our krii ,rhe light he leaves bchilid -bins ties Upon the paths of men." Watertown onslhTines his memory. Watertown rejoices in his fruitful life. NVatertown shares in the grief that is world- wide for his untimely death. We grieve for the Nation bereft of her first citizen. We grieve for the people who have lost a sincere friend.. Our tenderest thoughts and prayers are for the loyal, devoted, courageous wife, and for the venerable and venerated father, across whose lives a shadow has fallen which cannot be lifted while life lasts. For than memory only lingers, but the fraggance of it will sweeten many an othemise dreary hour. A-lay the Great Father c)f us all comfort them, bless this Nation, join strength and'Misdom to lofty purpose in the minds and hearts of those upon whom the burdens of goverru-nent leave sti(l,lenly fallep, that the Nation itself may live, and that peace, prosperity and happiness may shine upon us.

Section 8 of Chapter 205 of the Special Acts of 1919 as amended by section 3 of Chapter 638 of the acts of 1920 is hereby further amended by adding at the beginning of said section 8 the Ulowin�-,, : " No article in the warrant for a Town Mccting shall fbially be disposed of by a vote ' to lay upon the table,' ' to ind0initely postpone,' or " to take no action thereunder,' " Of the first paragraph of Section 1, which provides that of the members of the Finance Committee only the Chairman would have ex offwio the right to vote in Town Meeting, your committee disapproves. There is some impropriety in giving to a committee of twenty-one appointed citizens equal voting rights with. those who are elected. It is believed by your committee that addi- tional stren-th and confidence would come to the Finance Committee if that body were appointed from Town Meeting • RECORD OF TOWN XIELTINGS 213 Alen-lbe , with perhaps a proportional precinct representation, Some arrangement of this purport would be accomplished by a change in our By-Laws rather than a change,in the Special Act of the Legislature, and your cone-nittee requests that this matter be'referred to them for further consideration and report. Of the second paragraph of Section 1, which does away with the requirement of a majority for a quorum, your conunittee approves. It is believed that the present necessity of a majority not only puts a burden on the Town by reason of the several a.djourn- rnents for lack of quorum, but that the delay in of>ning meetings at the appointed hour due to waiting for a majority to appmr has had a serious effect on the interest of the Town Meeting Members. It is belie-i�ed that eliminating the provision for a majority will be in spirit -�%Tith the traditions of Town .Meeting Govern- ment and -will tend to increase rather than decrease the attend- ance. _ Of the third paragraph of Section 1, providing that an elected Town Meeting Member appointed or elected to an office carrying�%ith it ex ofcio membership in the Town Meeting shall thereupon lose his elected Town Meeting Membership, your cor mitt e approves_ Of Section 2, W'hieh provides that the Town Clerk shall call meetings of precinct members to fill vacancies, climinatinl the provision that ten members shall present a petition prelinunary to this action, your committee approves in the interest of expediting business.. Of Section 3, which provides for eliminating action under motions of " to lay upon the table," " to indefinitely postpone,;" or I to take no action thereunder," your committee disapproves, for the: reasons that the traditions of Town Meetinb Govern- ment are founded on the greatest amount of latitude in respect to discussion, and that occasions might well arise when these well recognized methods. of procedure would be appropriate. The tradition that motions of this mature shut off all refer- ence to the main question in debate is not established in fact, Voted: That the Selectmen be instructed to pet.itic,n the Legislature for such changes as the: committee. rccnmmendg, 214 WATERTOWN TOWN- REPORT Voted.

ANNUAL REPORT OF ASSESSORS FOR 1923 The work of and recon-niiendati0r]S of tha Assessors is Herewith submitted for the consideration of the citizens of the Town. This year we are submitting under separate cover the valuation of the Town, which may bD obtained by request at the office of the Assessar,. It is gratifying to this Board to -report a vcry substantial increase of valuations for the year, the increase in real estate amounting to $1,435,420 and the increase in personal property amounting to '527,571.36 Wc wish again to impress upon the Two .-i i A.1 ecti n members the fact that the tax rate is made when the appropriations arc , Meeting,gTanted at the Town Meeting, and not when the Assessors make their figures. The valuation of property in this Town is a very conservative one and we believe that it is for the best interest of all taxpayers in the Town, as a higher valuation would undoubtedly TCsult in a lower rate, but a larger bill. A very large proportion of the mistinderstandiligs between citizens and the Board is occasioncd by the failure of persons to male and return a statement of persomal property liable to taxation as is required of every Citizen. Many persons assume that they have no taxable personal property. This assump- tion is unfair, the Assessors being the ones w1i(-.j are competent, an(l should have the facts given tburn on div fazins provided for fl-& Purpose, and. we assure you every oue so reporting ANill be treated fairly and equitably. The blanks for returns inay be obtained at the office, and will be required of all. Below will be found a copy of a form of instructions which has been found helpful to -in understanding of what is re- (jitircd and the, method of arrivi'lig at the result .vith a fair appraisal of the value of personal property for taxation pur- poses. In one of the important towns in the State, the Asses- sDrs adopted the policy of ta-ung every household is the Town on personal property, and in the absence of a return, the value was asstimcd; -while majiy com' laints were received, lVe are p 423 42-4 'WJ'LTERTUWN TOWN REPORT tali that few abatcrnei is were granted, the result being that all citizens in the town contributed their fair and. just proportion of the expenses of the town. In the spirit of fairness and justice, all should he grilling to contribute their legal and fair proportion of these expenses. INSTRUCTIONS FOR RETURNS FOR PERSONAL PROPERTY LIABLE TO TAXATION Town of WatcrLoAvn, ll'lass. Instructions in the Matter of Local Tax Returns April 1, 1924. Please read carefully before filling out the. return. Blanks may be obtained at the Assessors' Offices and the - lceal banks. On application they will be sent by mail. They may be filed at any time brt;ween April 1 and Xfayr Its inclusive. To avoid mistakes they should be made before a member of . the Board of Assessors wbenetiver it is passible to do so. The advice of the Assessors is especially ncede-d in arriving at a correct, valuation. The Law, states that " They " (the As- sCssc►rs) " shall receive as true, except as to valuation, the list• brought in,17 unless the person making the return refuses to answer necessary inquiries. The duty of fiadng the valuation is thus placed on the Assessors. Directions by Page and Item of the Blank Page 1. Give Hanle Address, and in case of Real Estate, House and Street tidier- located. Page 2. Item (a) 16aas cash only, Make no return of checks or bank deposits. Item (i) Ships or vessels engaged in interstate or foreign ca=r ing trade are taxed at one-third of one per cent of the owner's interest t.hercin, if the return is filed on or before April 30 . Oilierwise RI:['ORT 4F AS ESSORJS 425 the rate is the annual tax rate. Yachts, sail- boats, ri.)w-boats, canoes, and power-boats are taxable where kept aitd situated on April 1, and at the rate fixed for the year. Item (k) Fill out each column, and add year when bought and price pall. The Assessors will allow a fair depreciation. The equipment, including shock absorbers, extra tires, roues, and anyfthiw, additional should be listed under the last item on this (2) page. Item (1) Furniture is a incest important item. Its taxable value is neither its cost nod' its auction value. By advice of the best authoiities it should be assessed at the amount that a Milling seller be satisfied to receive for it. The present price of furniture .should be taken into account,. Sentimental value need not be considered. Insurance value is a partial guide. The follow- ing I nv.cnto€`y is suggested as a. practical method of reckoning the total value: Value of rugs and carpets :S. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

If non-residents have furniture in Watertmm on April 1, it is taxable here at full value. Page 3. (Item o). Diamonds and other precious stones are assessed at replacement value. Age and condition are considered iii the valuation of plain jewelry. It is important that the above instructions should be ob- served in every case, but especially so if the return is made before a Notary Public or a justice of the Peace. Othenvise it may be necessary to ask for further infon-nation under questions I to 8 on page 1 April 1 is Assessment Day, and the return is a retuni of all personal property and real estate in '"ratertown on that date. Returns should be made every year. 'Women owning taxable property are subject to the same requirements as men. The taxable property cif minor children, if there is no guardian, should be included in the parent's return. The Assessors' Notices, calling on all property owners to make their returns, i0l be f(juiid an Bulletin Boards throughout the Town on aiid after April I. I The hours at Town Hall Annex M 9 a,M, to 4.3U p.m., except Saturdays, 9 a-m, to 12 m. Appointments may be made by telephone. Newton North 0520. FREDERIC E. CRITCHETT, B. FAY IMCGLAUFLIN, WILMAI+.i BELL, Board of Assessors. Waterto-wn, 211ass. The work of the department has been very largely increased by its largely increased number of inhabitants, The number of names returned by the police listing board is about fifteen thousand (15,000), all of which must be arranged and listed several times by the clerks in the office. This and the in- crease in the auniber of property assessments, which leave been largely increased, require very particular and careful work x�cpoxT OF ASSESSORS 427 by the clerks in the office as well as by tjIG xilemhers of the Board. There is no time for leisure in the office, and clerks of especial ability are neLessaryT to accomplish the w 1, cor- rectly. We feel that the regular clerks are entitle try an increase in salary, and we recommend that an appropriation should be made so that the salary of the clerks may he oracle sufficient to nia.ke their wages twent3-two dollars ($22.00) per week, and so recoininead. By reason of the la.rgc increase in the jimlIlDer of polls and the many divisions of property-, resulting in many more parcels to be valued and assesscd, requiring much more tune acid atten- tion, ive feel that the salaries of the Assessors are inadequate for the ainonllt of work- and ability of the members of the Beard. We respectfully ask that the salaries of the Assessors be made fifteen hundred dollars ($1,500) each. The increase in valuation of the flown of Watertown since 1919, a period of tour years, amounts to $6,7 fi8,88 . Respectfully submitted, Fly€.,"TIERIC E_ CRITCIIFTT, B.

REFORT OF THE PLAN19ING BOARD The Planning Board respectfully subinits its tenth anntial report for the yeai ending December 31, 1923. The importance of town planning is becorning more apparent every year and the necessity of all the units of a metropolitan area like, Greater Boston NvoTkin- together in order to obtain the best results. We noiv have the Metropolitan Planning Board which is workhi,, to'correlate the efforts of the cities and towng of this area for the benefit of the whole district. The chief work of the committee the past year has been as members of the Zoning Committee in preparing a zoning i-nap and the proposed zoning by-law. A fuU report has been inade by the chairrnan of the Zoning Committee and a copy of the map and by-laws may be obtained at the Town Hall. This is a subjeet which should interest every citizen, No one would think of beginning an important undertaking without first mak- ing a proper plan. It is just as important for a growing. town like Watertown to make plans present and future for the general welfare of all interests. The building laws go band in hand with zoning. A com- mittee with representation frorn the Planning Board has been Tecently appointed by the town to revise these laws. With the rapid development of West Watertown and the large area still left for improvement, scme action should be taken at once for improved electric transportation. Some plan ought to be made whereby this whole sectionw-ould be placed in the one fare zone to Boston. This is an ideal section for homes and it should be given an opportunity to develop to the advantage of the whole tovm. Hyde Park has succeeded in gettiiiir the one fai-e. Why not West Watertoym? Watertown is on the line of the old Boston to New York post-read and is rapidly becoming the chief thoroughfare to the wost of Doston, Watertown Square can easily become a great advertising force to the advantage of the whole town. This is where those passing through get their impression of what the 490 REPORT OF 7OWN PLANNING BOARD town is. The Planning Board invites the car-operation of the business rreli to improve the appearance of the existing build- ings around the square. With wraU expense Borne of these structures can be beaut-�fied to benefit not only the particular 'business involved but ever`- one in the sgtiam would be helped and the Nvbole town mould profit. The Planni-ni, Board hopes that the razing of the Barnard Block and the lValker & Pratt Building will tale place the coming year and that there will be a continuation of further improvernents in the square. The Flannilig Board will welcome the co-operation of every citizen, w-lio has ideas for improving the town as a place in which to work and to live, to rnee't with them and Delp make these ideas into worlcable plans. WILLIA-M W. RUGG, Chnirnlan, EL7W ARD P. '"FRIGHT, Secretary, ARTHUR L. 3MORSZ, E-MMA L. BRIGHT, NIELS H. LARSEN. REPORT OF THE TREE WARDED January 15, 1924. To the Ciii-Wits of 11'aterlown The annual report of the tree ivardea ks herewith submitted, During; the past year forty-seven (lead and (dangerous trees were taken down and nine trees -were removed on petition of abutters. One of the large elms which was removed should have special at#tentiba. This trer, was in thecentre of the, sidex%Talk in front of 126 Main Street and nxeasured fifteen feet in cir- cumference two feet above the sides alk, A careful count of the rings would indicate that the tree was about one hundred and fifty-seven years old. It was Nvith regret that this old Lrce was taken down, but turn.e and the ice storm of two gears ago left it in such a condition that repairs and pruning were useless. Pruning was done on all streets so that the full benefit of the street lights mi-ght be had. All braT)ches were kept above traffle and all possibly dangerous lams removed, so far as our appropriation for labor would permit. The department has Dept within its total appropriation, which was $5,700, For detailed account cif expenditures see the auditor's report. Tlie demand for new trees is i iereas ng`and during the past year the department set out sixty-seven trees. The price of new trees has been steadily increasing in the last few gears and to meet the increased demand and price I reconmiend that the approlMation for this work be increased to 8300. For the ensuing year l recommend an appropriation of 8(,, 5fi for the use of the "free Warden Department. Respectfully submitted, VAN D. HORT£)N Tree 14wrarden. 492 REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT DE THE MOTH DEPARTMENT Watertown, glass., January 15, 1924. To the Honorable Board of,Selechnen, Genflonen The report of the 1llotli Department for the year' ending December 31, 1923, is herewith respectfully submitted. During the past year the trees havc be n carefully inspected and wherever the gypsy math egg clusters were found they were thoroughly creosoted, and browntail moth nests were coat cuff the trees and burned. The ,gypsy moths are still very numerous in various parts of the town and the browntail moth has been found to sae rather deeply seated. It will require great e to exterminate these pests. The elm leaf beetle, white aphis, satin math and numerous other insects of a similar nature, are making rapid strides in destroying the life and foliage of our trees and unless adequate steps are taken to suppress these pests our trees-"ill be seriously injured. Even a casual observer may notice their destructive work. In order to protect the trees it is necessary to keep up the work of extermination. To carry on the work of the department for the year 1924 I would recommend an appropriation of $5,000. � Respectfully submitted, JOHN C. FORD, Superintendent of Aloth Departwenk 493 REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS INTatert.own, January 14, 1924. To the Ctt_zans of 11--alerfo in: 7'lie .Park Commission respectfully- submits its report for the year ending December 31, 1923, as follows Through the excellent supen rision of our superintendent, Mr. Vain D. Horton, the work of the past year has been most gratifying. The baseball parks have been kept in excellent condition and an unprecedented demand for their use has been experienced du ing this past season. With the growing demand of the season of 1023 the quality of the baseball played in our parrs has been of excellent order and is certainly deserVing of the most liberal support and hv,irty, cc-operation of the citizens of this town. Saltonstall Parr Repairs have been made to the Main Street fence and to the drinking fountain. The condition of the fence along 'Nfain Street is such that in a short time it will be necessary to replace it by a new fence. Considerable loaming and pruning of trees has been done and around the soldiers' monument was sodded. Some of the old benches have become obsolete and it 'Mll be necessary to mpla.ce them. Whitney Hill. Park Thirty trees were removed from this parr. These trees were dead and considered to be in danger of falling. The wood was removed to the almshouse department and they furnished the necessary tearning. The dense undergrowth has been care- fully gone over, leaving such small trees as leech, oak and hickory. The tonal area of this parr is six acres. 4 RETORT OF PARK COMMISSIONNERS 495 Winthrop Street Tennis Courts The popularity of these courts has been evidenced by the large numbor of permits granted. Forty Lombardy poplars have bectL sot out around the cotu'ts in such positions as to be used as .9upports for the: wire enclosure in about three years. Abo,at fifteen yards of clay was sprca.d over the courts as a binder and ten trees of stone dust spread for a surface. Carver Road Delta This delta was taken over by the town late in the fall of 1922, so no work was attempted Lentil this year. It was fo-and that considerable bad to be done on account of the rubbish that had accumulated. One unusually large tree sturnp was buried. Although good loam was found, considerable levelling and filling had to be dons;. Eiglit young trees were Set out, leaving rmm for three or four more, urbich will be set out in the spring. Howe Farb It is the recommendation of this conunission that Howe Park be sold and the purchase made of a more centrally located piece of Land for a park for the rest end. Victory Field The two fields (inside. and outside) have been in almost con- stant use, an increase of one hundred twenty-five per cent (exactly) over last year's record. One common complaint from the basel:)all factions is that right and left l`icld fences Kermit too many horne runs. This can easily be remedied by extending the height of the fence at the critical points. In the locker roorns better ventilation has been accom- plished by installing a lame pipe to carry off fur es from the gas heater.

To The H morable Board of Select meu: Gentkmeyn: T herewith subudt my report as Town Physician for the year ending December 31, 123. During the year, I made three hundred and sixty visits at various dater, Outside: ,Aid, Mothers' Aid, and Almshouse. Several consultations and examinations were made at the re- quest of the Health Department. M-7ritten opinions on physical condition, first aid, and subsequent treatment wore rendered to some members of the: Pine Department. In the F ore.5try Department, one case of a fractured ann was treated. Forty-two members of the Highway Department, injured while at work.for the. Town were treaated, followed by about 160 treatments, and regturing several -lay exa.rr:iinations. Several of these cases were of a severe. Mature_ Seventy-six personsivere visited at the Police Station,requiring two hundred and forty trca.tment.s and many operations, some of -which were " emergency " and had to be performed at the Station. I ix-ould recommend to your Board that some plaice be fitters at the Police Station where treatment could be properly and safer{ given. in " emergency " work, and where patients, when necessary, could be held over for obsen ation until they .are in condition to be sent to their hares, to hospitals for further treatment, or disposed of in sonic other way. Several cases admitted to the Police Station during the year on account of their conditic ii were not admissible to hospitals unless accompanied by attendants, which makes it very expensive. Several theses during the; year the police ambulance has been in use for the purpose of having patients rcinoved from their Homes ax3d from the Police Station to hospitals. The Police Officers at all times have been Milling and obliging, but they have been handicapped in their work in not having a proper means of conveyance, as the ambulance now in use 497 by the Police Department is never sure of reaching its destina- tionp is unsafe and uncoi-nfortable. Oftentimes during the year, when an. ambulance- was needed, it w—,s found to be in the workshop for repair- everal conferences leave been held with the Town Counsel.

Gewle en: f respectfully submit the follo,�ving report as keel)cr of the ali-Eshouse for the year ending December 31, 1023. 1 have tried to keep this institution UP to its high stand- ard of cleanliness and comfort. All supplies purchased 'have been of good quality. General conditions are practically the same as last 3Tar nvith a smaller number of inmates. Practi- cally all of the inmates are getting quite feeble, one or two being confined to their beds practically all of the time, which necessitates a great deal of care. There were nine inmates at the beginning of the year and seven at the close. The whole number of inmates has been seventeen, the largest nuanber at one time twelve, the smallest seven, average number eight. One irate was removed to the llcCreight Sanitarium, two Nvere placed in care: of frieiids, six in care of relatives, and one died. Several roams wrrc given a coat of paint, others were kalsornined and are now in first class shape, New window and door screens %vere made and the others were: repaired. I would Temnunend that the house and shed be given two coats of paint, the paint is peeling badly on the north side of the house. Repam' should be made on the chirmieys and the driveway be given a. coat of tarvia. The steamy boiler is about thirty-five }ears old and will need a ntunher of repairs this coi=g year. A new bullehead is needed for the vegetable cellar. About; two acres of Icand were tilled, veguables enough for the house were raised and the surplus sold. f NNish to thank the town physician fnr his careful attention to the sick. I dish to thank Watertown Council, I-,'nights of Columbus, and the different individuals who so generously remembered the inmates at {Christmas and at ether Limes throughout the year. 499 5CO WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Practically all of the inmates find much enjoyinent in reading, and donations of reading matter are always acceptable, In closing I wish to thank your honorable board. for your kind and courteous attention.

Gentlemen I respectfully submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1923, Mothers' Aid. Department The year 1023 started with twenty-eight families, including one hundred and eighteen individuals, receiving aid under the i�1lothers' Aid Law. During the year seven cases were discon- tinued, leaving twenty-one eases on hand at this date. It was possible to reduce the allowance in some cases, due to the fact that the children were cold enough to secure employ- ment, or the mother obtaining suitable part time emplDyrment near home, while her children were at school. The latter method is permitted only in cases where the number of children does not exceed two, and we are assured that the welfare of the children is not neglected. There was very little serious sickness during the year, partly clue to our insistence of being notified at once at the first sign of any indisposition on the part of a chill, and the con- stant vigilance on the part of the mother. The method of allowing weekly cash to mothers has proved to be very successful, ina5much as it permits the malting of purchases to the best possible advantage, which we feel results ire a treat saving to the tcvm. Through the kindness and generosity of the various chari- table organizations of the toam, the mothers and chbdren were made happy at Christmas. ATE appropriation of $24,000 is recornrnended for the wear of 1924. 01 502 IVATLRTo11':+; TOWN' REPORT Outside Aid Department This department leas iend+ered aid to fifty-.sic families, including one hundred and thirty per ons during the year. The majority of cases were of temporary nature duc to sickness a or name other misfortune, which the, applicants could not control. Aid . was also furaishcd to idneteen aged persons who reside at home or with private, fannies, some of whom are able to Jo part time work. Relief was also provided for the aged and itifii-n residing; elsewhere, but who have a. settlement in Watertown. Three persons are tieing cared for at the Holy Ghost Hospital. for Incurables. Twenty-two children, eleven of whom are state wards, and one who is at the Hospital School at Canton, are being cared for by this department. Industrial conditions in the towwrn are at present fair, but the prospects of steady einployinent in some of the mills, are not altogether bright. Persons receivincy aid, from this department were remem- bered at Christmas by the various charitable organizations. An appropriation of $105,000 is recommcnded for the year of 1024. JOHN J.

The work of the office has followed the usual line of advising Town Departments as to their legal -responsibilities, draving and approving contracts, bonds, deeds, takings of lands for public purpases, instituting;wits and defending actions In which the Town is involved. Early In the.year two actions brought in the SupeTioT Ccurt seeking to compel the Selectmen to issue permits for the erection of private garages, without public hearing, were decided in favor Of UIC officers of the Town. In the latter case the issue -was clear cut and the decision left no room for doubt. It is. herewith appended. CONIINION WEALTH OF MASSACHUSLTTS SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT Hiddlesex ss.

Settlement of claims for damages to persons or property suffered on the highway of the Town have been made during the vear with the following persons: lklar�r E. Collins, 114ary C. �orcoran, Daniel W. Donahue, M. Agnes Hargedon, William F. Sullivan, Stella Ward, Fred C. Green. and Jahn 11IcCree. These settlements ba-Te aggregated six hundred forty-four and twenty one hunelredtlas dollars ( 641.`0). Claims of Augusta. De Anguera and Herbert 11T Flake for damages to property caused by the bursting of a. eater main on Mt. Auburn Street have been settled for two hundred dollars (*'200). One other claim resulting from the same cause of action is pending. The claim of Hamlet u. Town, for dania.ges resulting froin an alleged defect in the highway in 1917, is at present before the: Supreme Court on an appeal from a.verdict against the Town in the Superior Court for the sum of two thousand two hundred dollars ( 2,200). The probability is that this action will be argued at the March term of the Supreme; Court. Three old actions for damages are pending iti the Superior Court .arid there are some minor claims for whieh damages have been. claimed. On most of these the Town has disclaimed liability. Title to all the property in the Delta at the junction of Alain, Mt. Auburn and Galen Streets, excepting only a small portion field by the Comnionvea.lth of Massacliusetts, has now been acquired by the Town. This latter parcel Neill doubtless be secured from, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts within the next few. weeks. The Town can then proceed to utilize it for whatever public purpose it deems best. *05 REPORT OF TOWIN COUNSEL 4) The land for the'new Senior High School in the centre of the Town has been acquired and settlement of all damages has been effected iNith the av�Tners.

Geatle;nvt.: I herewith submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1923. This report, includes several tables shoMinf; the nuni per of deaths, births andcontagious diseases reported dUrin(y th=. year, also birch and (loath rates, infant rnorLality and causras caf daatll by classification as well as other tables indicating the many activities of the Department. The study by the. Townspmple of these tables should be not only interesting; but instructive also. The continued low death rate. together with the exceptionally low rate of infant 1-nortality notwithstanding the rapid increase of the population of the Town should be a source: of much satisfaction to the residents. General Health Increasing population as a rule necessitates the record- insr of a larger lit.tuber of deaths. This rule during the last year, how-ever, has been revcned, for notwithstanding our increase the number of deaths recorded for 1023 were one hundred and fifty-three as co-inpa.red ��qth one hundred and sixty in 1922, thus giving the; Tuwn its Lowest death rate of rccord. The number of residents dying out of roam and the nun bCT of non--residents dying; in Town remain about Vie Sc nLe as 1,-Lst year. Our infant mortnlity- has n1so shown a substantial decline, thus indicating quite rlcaLrly the value of infant welfare work. Many c\pcctant mctlwrs as well s1.5 mothers 4 neiv born bal iies ea,;erly° wek ad ric and lnstructinn from our INTelfare Nurse Ivlto is always available and is not olAy 'Willing to give adx"Cc and reneger assistance, but is wiximus that inothers, with their habics, attend our baby clinic, regularly. 510 REPORT OF BOARD OF KFALT11, ,711 Contagious Diseases Notwithstandilig the unusual prevalence of scarlet fever, not only locally-, but throughout the entire State, no death Clue to this, disease is recorded for the year. Two deaths were caused by diphtheria. This justifies the repetition of my warning of last year, a warning that should be repeatedly emphasized until every parent understands that a death from diplithen'a is almost a crone, that it is i.-iow possible: not Only by the Schick Test to determine those saseeptible to the dise,ase, but to prevent it through imi-nunization by the use of toxin anti-toxin, which may be had without cost. For the benefit of those who fail to appreciate the value of these iliscoveTies, let me repeat, watch the throat, and provide early medical attention. FollmAing the least evidence of diplithe-ria, knoxv that if you vill not prevent the disease through immunization with toxin anti-toxin, you can save the patient's, life through the early- use of anti-toxin. Bear in mind also, that in almost evert Msta-Tice, death from diplifficria is duc to neglect of the disease, in its Mrly stages and upon the shoulders of tl'ic)sc responsible for those net must be placed the burden of blame for every (Icath that occurs hCCUISe of diplitheria. Intelligent tise of tho Schick Tcst an(I in)- munization with toxin anti-toxin will as surely eliniii-tate diph- theria as vaccination has climinatcd small pox. Other contagious diseases, often considered by parents as minor, are more serious than many people realize, many of the including measles, munips, chicken pox and whooping cough, are- often attended w-ith serious complications that appear later in life and are seldom connected with the diseas-1 of earl- childhood. Parents slio-Lild guard their ciiildreiiagainst stich diseases, rm-nembering that the theon� that children niust have childish diseases has eNploded. Every normal child it saved from an attack in childhood gains an immunitN, as it grows older. therefore avoid contact and prevent exposure whenever pu,ssible� It is well also to remember that parents, especially where- no physician attends, are, in case of a permn becoming ill -aith one of these diseases, required to j)r0MPtlV roport every case to the Board of Health, too matter how slight the case may be, -remembering that the danger from a mild 512 WATC-RTONVN TOWN RtPORT ease is groutur than that of the severe one. failure to report is ptinishable by a severe fine. Tuberculosis The SWELlty decline of the number of cases reported and deaths caused by tuberculosis gives hope, that, as years go by, this disc asc will also be controlled, and that it will be no longer considQ.rut a great white plague. The same pressing need, however, still exists for a better control of what oftentimes luas berm referred to as " incorrigible eases," that is, these who by their vicious or careless habits do not accept treatment, but insist upon their being permitted to live in their own way, regardless of consecltience to others. Happily, we here have a very limited number of them- cases. Our residents, however, are subjected to infection through contact with those from other conunu-111ties. It is to be hoped that sooner or later tho Legislature will see its wDay clear to give health authorities this needed assistance. Scarlet Fever The unuqual prevalence of scarlet fever throughout tlic) State during the year was clue particularly to the mild type of disease, a type ,4o mild that in -many instances pare-tits failed to realize the situaGon until several others in the family bad become infu.ctal. A number of children continued in school %\ithcut inturmption except perhaps for a day or tvm, the usual signis being so mild that they escaped the notice of the r)arents. The child, lacing apparently well, returned to school, and the pre-school child, being alkwed to go about �%rith its playinates, resulting in further infection. Another contributing factor was the failure of parents to observe quarantine: regulations Complaints of children from quarantinod houses plaYimg with other children have reached this office, and investigations of these complaints have show-ii Tnaiiy of them to be justiEed. We have endeavored to impress it upon those complained of that unless quarantine was ob- senred, prompt action would follow. Frclqueatly, Wents who REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTIT 51 are first to comp[ain are found to be the_xraust careless in ob- servation. The school is another distributing source of infection. Several cases in the descluamaticn period have been fotuid by the school physicians and nin es. This has not only been true here but true in other communities. Other cases in school undoubtedly have escaped notice. Parents should bear in mind first that much of the responsibility is theirs, that the early stages of the disease is the most infectious time and that any discharge duc to scarlet fever is d;angemu% and infectious. A person suffering froin such a discharge should be carefully kept in quarantine tintil all discharges have ceased. The majority of cases prove to be of the pre-school age, and inuch depends upon the parents exercising luc gincut. and care if we are to control cent<agic us diseases. No health department, regardless of how wc� ll equipped, can sluceessfully cope with it unless it has the full ccQperatrion of the community. Parents should not hesitate to call the attention of their phys`i+cian to every case of sore threat, evidence of fevvT or rash, no matter how mild. Igo this promptly, and many cases' of much suffering -will be prevented. They should also bear in mind that they are re:guirud to report all cases to the; Board of hfcalth. Schick Test for Diphtheria During the year, si_x hundred and eighty-eight; school children evert: given the Schick Test for diphtheria, (many others receiving it through their own physician). Of this number, four I imdred and fifty-five -ere found to be sus- ceptible to the disease, and two hundred and fourteen were negative. Of the; faun hundred and fifty-five positives, those ,who could get diphtheria if exposed, three hundred and l=ifty-�fivts -were immure ed, (that is, given the nemssary additional treat- ment.) While the number tested was much less tlrsan tilis Department had hoped for, the start was encouraging and we trust that the futtuc response %krill be greater. The. Department is anxious that every child shall have the benefit of this wonder-' ful discovcry, and thus be saved from an .attack of this most insidious disease. Parents wishing to have their children 514 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT who are under school age tested may male application to the Board of Health and when a sufficient number have ap- plicd, these 1)arents �vill be noLiilOct Whe11 the test will be given. Test will be done without charge. During the year, due undoubtedly, in part at least, to the immitnizing of those found susceptible to diphtheria, the awnber of cases reported has been less than in the; previous yu-Irs.

Clinics This year, in all probability, the State will. insist that the Board establish a clinic for ltuberculosis l)atients. Its this event, it will he ncecssaryr to PTOVide adequate TOMns apart ,from the: present office. These rooms, to comPlY with the REPORT OF 130AR1a OF JILALTIJ 51.3 Statutes must be ocntrally located,of easy access to those whose condition requires thcm to go there for examination, andmust be properly equipped, and provided with dressing roams for both sexes. The Department has practically all of the equipment, including scides for weighing, table for examinations and other equipment necessary for such a clinic. I would recomnend that the Board give this matter its early atwntion, Baby Welfare Wi)rk The clinic for this wc,i-k Is boing held in the office of the Board of Health, but due to the n-Lunber of babies that at tunes arc brought for examination, the present available room is found to be inadequate. We hope at an carly (late to secure roams in one or tkNo of the schools in whic]) these clinics may fie con(hicted and in consequence extended and enlargLA Tile work is also seriously handicalipcd because we are dependent upon volunteer medi'cai aid. Some arrangement, should be inade whereby the physician could lac paid a -nominal, st= at least. Notuithstanding their Willing response, it seems hardly fair to repeatedly reqnest and expect volunteer incdical service, Dental Clinic This clinic, established about two years ago, has proven ofimmcnsevaltic. It-sconstant - growth, however, is now handi- capped due to the limited Financial resources of the organization through whose effarts its operation is made possible. Many qchoal children are enabled now to have the necessary attention given to teeth that otherwise mi.,,dit not ha,.,-e been cared for. Because of its growth and consLantly increasing financial n,,quirements, those in charge have requested this Department to provide at least a part of the 5inds required to carry on the work. In view of this, and lily fi= conviction regarding the vital in pci-tance of the work-, may I Urgre that the Board take whatevcr action deerned ncce-,qarv- to SCCLITC the needed funds to not only cGntinue the splendid work that is now being done, 516 WATERTO'4i N TOWN REPORT but that it may also be extended to include children of the pxc- school age. The following Statute provides the authority through which. Boards of Heialth may establish and maintain such a clinic `• Section 50, Chapter 111, General Laws. To nis may establish and maintain dcR4,il, medical and health clinics, and in ccmiection therewith may conduct the campaigning of general education relative to matters pf public health. All appropriations made for the 1)uzposes of this section shall be expended under the direction of the local Board of Health and clinics established hereunder shall be conducted and subject #a such rules and regulations as said. Board may establish." The following letter and statement illustrates the work already accomplished and also the need of assistance that the scope of the work may be extended. 'Much credit is clue those in charge of the present clinic, to the Tied Cross,Women's Club, Paxent-TeaeheTs Association, and to all others who have:. assisted.

Patter, gives a very good idea cif the possibilities. This work should go on from year to year until completed.. An appropriation of not less than $2,000 for the coming year should be secured that the work of grading and creating new lots may be eontinued. Many trees, plants and shrubs were planted during the fall months, and in the early spring that past already graded uill be so%%,m w-ith grass seed. This, together with the shrubbery,should add much to the appearance of the cemetery. Another matter that i%rill require your attention is the future: need of land for burial purposes. Undoubtedly due to the , rapid growth of the Town, this need will be felt much sooiaer than is expected, and unless provisions are soon made to meet this situation, the To,%Nfn; may find itself forced to go outside the Town limits. At present, there is land available within the 'Town limits that might be secured. In view of this situation, I deem it my duty to call the matter to your attention that some definite diction may be taken whereby this land can be :ceured, thus insuring the T[Nrn, as time goes can, against the possibilities of seeking a btaial place for its deal outside the Town limits. The Town now has three separate public burial places. The need in the futures of establishiiig additional cemeteries can and should be avoided. WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Bakeries, Restaurants, Etc.

Garbage As Predicted, the transfer of garbage collections to the Street Dej)artment resulted in improvement nand muchrelief to house- holders. This is, as it Should be, and while, the expense may be greater, the improvement is worth several tii-nes the (-Iii:- fcrezice in cost. This improved senice kNill lac appreciated as time goes on and the Town realizes that it had outgrown the obsolete and unsatisfactory method of collection of garbage by contract.

The regrading and leveling; of quite an extensive area has 531 532 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT beets accomplished. The retaining walls have been 'wilt and quite a layout of trees and shrubs have been planted. To complete the work in the immediate location of the new en- trance, .about eighty-fve lots will have to be regraded because of necessary changes made in relocating avenues and to retain unifonn grade of the area adjacent to the lots disturbed by the above mentioned changes. Our Town is groiving so rapidly that the acquirement of nely land for the extension of Ridgcla%-m Cemetery* by the purchase of undeveloped land should be considered and acted upon its the very dear future, there being bi-A little land in Town available; for cemetery purposes when this vacant land is gone. This platter is one that is incorporated into your general report together with gathers of import to the development and upkeep of Rid,gelawn. As it is nearly hnpossible to dispose of standing grass, I recommend that a power mGwer be purchased. By so doing, the whole of the undeveloped sections of the cemetery can be kept in smooth and sightly condition in keeping with the place. The fence; along the south side of Ridgelawn for a distance of two hundred fifty (250) feet needs to be rebuilt at once as the pasts have rotted and are falling. The carriage gates on Warren Street have been permanently closed, and the new entrance on Stuart Street opened for funerals and visitors. New gates have been put into position at Common Street Cemetery, also at Arlington Street Cemetery, to replace the card gates that were worn out and falling to pieces. During the year, special attention has been given to the upkeep of the several oemete rigs, and they are in excellent condition. Respectfully submitted, F R-ANR R.

This year we ba-re had to meet the problem of housing the largest number of pulp ils ever enrolled in the schools of the town. Our greatest congestion is in the east district where we are housing the senior high school and junior high school pupils in the senior high school building and part of the Hosmer building. This has crowded the grades which should be cared for in the Hosmer bttildi.ng and has forced eight classes on to hart tirne. This crow-ding will continue until the proposed new senior high school building is completed. With the opening of this building the needed class rcorns N611 be proNrided and all classes should be placed on full time again. The School Committee earnestly hope that the new senior high school building will be ready for occupancy in September, 1925. This -would mean ordy one mare year of crow-ding in the cast district and we feel that parents and teachers %%ill more willim lv endure the strain if they can feel that relief is near at hand. I understand that the building committee for the new building have their plans all completed for the building to be ready for occupancy in September, 1925. Too mach praise cannot lie peen this cormmittee for their diligent and faithful work in completing the plans, The next step is for the citizens to support the committee in its work and appropriate the money necessary to build this new building which will mean, so much to Watertown loth ill its educational and ciN`ic interests. The school year just past has been a very successful one for our school system, The work accomplished has been of the highest grade.. This success has only been possible through the faithful work and cooperation of the masters, principals and 5 teachers with the superintendent and School Committee, This loyalty is very much appreciated. Your committee has unaiiimously voted to raise the maxi- mum salary of all then employed by the school department. This is not, to be ,�v ii as a bonus but is to establish a new maximum towards which all teachers N611 be increased at a yearly- rate of .15 MO. The nCIV sn'LXilTIUM is nat as high as many Of the -neighboring towns are paying; but will enable us to more now—ly equal the grade of teachers hired by those towns. We sincerely ask the citizens to- support us at the annual town mceLings in establishing the foilo%Nirg schedule for our teaching; Anff, Senior High School Master 8.3,700 ,]lcn teachers 200 Wornen teachers 1,900 junior High Schools Masters 8340 Nlen teachers 2,500 Women teachers 1,809 Nla..sters' assistants 1,000 Elcmentary Schools nincipals 2,800 R'crrnen teachers 1.650 Priiicipals' assistants ] .00 4-room buildings Pi-111cipals' assistants 1,750 over 4 rooms With the growth of our school system we have not neglected the physical education of the pupils. Each child is examined at least once a year for any physical defect of the b a.rt, eyes, cars, tootle and pasture. Games, physical exercises, and various athletic activities are ,arc}Vided ,for the pupils from the first grade t1irough the high school. `r wo years ago the State Department of Education appointed i1`li'. earl Schrader, formerly of the Sargent School, as agent for the development of physical education. 1VIr. Schrader's slogan is "Physical Education and Athletics for ALL of the pupils in REPORT OV TUL CHAIRMAN 7 the schools," Hu is developing, with the co6peration. of the Massachusetts Hgh School Athletic Association, a plan lor 1-nRss athletics under which high schools may secure credit for participation of All their students, thus 1-naking it possible. for the small schools to get as. high, or even higher scoros than the larger schools. Besides the regular gymnasiurn. work -which is offered to every boy and girl in the senior high school this year there have been teams for the boys in football, basket ball, baseball, golf, tennis and track and for the girls in basket ball aiid field hockey. There is an increasing interest in these different branches of sport and it is hoped that by another vear,-,L large M 17 ajority if not participating -npe- all of the students will be articipating in sonic form of coi tition: It must be remembered that the real purpose of athletics in our -,chauls is the development of better bodies and a sense of good sportsmanship among our boys and girls and not the cornmercializing of athletics for the sake of large fmancial IN returns or for the aniusement of the public:. This aim should steadily be kept in miiid In closing I wish to thank the superhatendent, masters, principals, tvachm and all those employed by the School Department, who by their loyalty and faithful work have enabled the School COW-111-ittee to successfully care, on its %vork- for the past year. For a more detailcd report of our schools, I refer you to the report of the superintendent of schools. Respectfully stibinitte(l, HAROLD B. BLAZO, Chairman of 111C School COX111nitice- SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To the School connniftec.° I herewith submit my sixteenth annual report as Superin- tendent of Schools of Watertown. This report is the eighty- sixth of printed reports of the School Committee of I-Vatertown.. Professional Improvement of Teachers It is a pleasure to turn from the distress of our class room congestion to an inspiring tonic of teachers. Never before has the spirit and interest of our teachers, as a professional.body, in their Nvorh been keener. Principals and teachers have been ready to inect the emergencies that have arisen. Teachers' Salaries A dignified and businessae appeal has been made. to your committee by representatives of our teachers on the question of salary increase. The professional spirit and earnest zeal of our teachers ccommend them to you for consideration on this question in Such measure as the ec'C}I ornic conditions of our coim-aunity will permit. Cur -teaching farce will continue to be tile: source of supply for neighboring committees wben the differential in salaries is so considerable. Improvement in our teaching Nvill to some extent continually attract other school departments who are seekilig qualified teachers. The Opportunity School Legislative enactments by the General Court of 1919 require each city and town to ascertain annually the number of children retarded in mental development under regulations ulations which the Department of Education and the Commission of Mental Diseases determine. These regulations provide that only those pupils should be considered for the special classes who lave been examined by approved methods and qualified persons and judged to be three or more years retarded in mental dcvcl- opment. 8 SUPERIXTVN13MM'S REPORT 9 In accordance with the law, two such classes were organized in September, a class for girls at the -Marshall Sprung School and a class for buys at the Phillips School. Our special class for girls received favorable comment from members of the Waverley Clinic when they made their annual. visit this fall. As noon as space can be I)TOVided this work should be extended to the eastern Dart of our town. State Aided Schools The town leas received from the state 111 1923, in addition to the general school fund allotment of 821,59T65 the sure of 85�,115.55 as rei burson-iont for tuition paid the cities of Boston, Cambridge and Newton for flay and evening vocational work. In addition it has received the sum of $703.08 on account of our Continuation School and $1,240.70 on accouut of our Ameri- canization classes, The total reimbursement from the state for the year 1023 was $30,656.38, which amount should be deducted from the total school department budget for the year. The Dental Clinic Early in the fall, through the courtesy of the Community Committee, a movable dental chair gar, purchased and put in use. By the use of this movable clinic we were able to scare a greater number of pupils and much. less time was lost on the Dart of the pupils. It seeuns that the employipent of a dental nurse would greatly acid to the efficiency of this part of the work. Our school nurses have in the past been giving up much of their time to assist in this Dart of the work.

S[ PERTN"TENDE'NT'S IZI;'130IUr Some Things the Schools Propose to Do School work is adjusted now f.-L-r more consistently. to the interests and abilities of ebildren than it used to be. The good citizen is a member of a home. The school is a sort of home extension. The school stresses the home virtues. The school is a community in itself in which every pupil has a part. In the ji-inior and Senior High School especially, stud.viit co-tincils, class organizations, athletic associations and educational clubs of various lei-nds give pul3ils upporLunity for leadership and for �co6pemtion. Our schools ought to provide the best teachers we can get for the salaries we pay and to pay the best salaries wo can. We should extend and im]YrQve health and physical educa- tion beyond our present program. We should pro,%.ide for the individiial differences of cluldren so far as is consistent with democracy. We ought also to provide an opportunity for all pupils whu are able to do so to fit themselves for college and professional schools. We ought to spend an appropriation for education carefully and wisely and to make every dollar buy as MUch educaLiun as possible. Finally we ought to co6perate with outside agencies wben- ever these, may help in our educaticnal program and when the initiative of the school program is not interfered i-,ith. Enrollment The September enrollment in the (kc,- high and elementary -schools for 1923 was 139 greater than for ID22. It is probable that for a few vears at least our increased registration will be mostly in the higher grades because- of the parochial school; the requirement that pupils must complete the sixth tirade before they go to work-; and became the jimior high schnol� or,anizatimi rNill hold children in school v�,ho would otherwise become dissatisfied and leave. Thrift During the Year the Union Market National Bank has purchased five stamp saving machines and as a result many 12 WATERTOWN TOWNT REp)RT of the pupils have accounts In the Union Market National Dank. We believe this to be a :splendid opportunity for the pupils to acquire the habit of saving which Will be of lasting benefit to them later to life. Physical Education We 110w have four persons devottrig full time to athletics and physical training of our girls and boys. 'Then we have funds %N e should provide. for a more tharotIgfl medical iilsp e- tion and correcti-vo gymnastics. Continuation School This still incets the approval of the state authorities with whore we are in partnership and %{,ho pay half the bills. Re- cent legislation requires that we pay the tuition of such pupils residing in W atertmvn but worl��ing in other- communities, This will cast approximately one thousand dollars one half of which will be refunded by the skate. At present we accom- modate the boys in the Hosrner building and the girls in the high school buildln,. The Junior High School ` Our junior high schools have now been maintained for more than a year. It is safe to say they have been carried on with satisfaction to these: who have been responsible for their success. The si..r•-thrcc-three system is so well established that the younger boys and girls are looking forward to d#ferentiatccl courscs and related activities. High School The final division of the school system is the high school. This organization now cc)nsists of three years, and deals with the youth of the, adolescent a.ge. The activities of this school are diNrided into four general groups: college preparatory, com- mercial, general, and the household arts. Each of these courses is a continuation of the work, begun in the junior high school. Each is well organized and affords an opportunity for pupils to secure a thorough, training in the work best adapted for their needs and aptitudes. The work of the college preparatvey SUPERX:`TEIv'I7ENT'S REPORT 13 department is planned to fit pupils for to 1-arying kinds of higher institutions. Pupils from the 117atertow o Higlr entered the following institutions in September, 192.'-', Boston lJ nii e-rsity, Drown University, Bridgewater l orinal School, Burdett College, Cambridge Haskill School, Chamber-- la-vne School, Cha:unce-- Fall School, E,astmi N azarenc School, Leslie Kindergarl-en School, -lanhattamille, College, Massa- chu.setts Agricultural Colle c, Massachusetts Institute of Te:chnolo n-, 'c,,a,' England Coiiscrvatory of Nlusic, Northeast- ern ollevu- Radcliffe College, Renssalaer Polytechnic Insti- tute, Sargent School of Physical Education, Suffolk Law School, Tufts College,, Worcester Normal School. The High School Principal reports in part as ollazus: It is gratifyiiig to note that scholarship as well as athletics is being recognized bps those who are interested in our high school as evidenced by the list of trophies a.-rardod at the grad- uation exercises in June. The following is a list of the trophies which were a%varded at that time and which will be awardecl annually in all proba- bilitV, 1.

QOPWIATIOM • YVATLPTOWN WATER DE-PARTMF-NT ' SF-WLXS '--•-• SERVICE$ --�---- GALL4NS P[Rcorl5uklCfZ TAT l ST l CAL TABLE peR- DAY REPORT OF WATER DEPARTMENT The miusual demand for the installation of services and +exterision of mains where new developments of building opera- tions have been made during 192,3, was largely emergence work-, to make habitable newly built hones that Watertown was so much in need of during the past few ycrari. It has been d fl'tcu.lt at times to keep up to the demand, but everythillo considered the board feels that we have beetz fortunate in what -we have been able to accomplish considering the shortage of labor at times. Special Reconstruction or work- in replacing the old cement-lined mains has progressed satisfactorily. About two-thirds of a mile of cast iron pipe has been laid during 1923, viz.; Kt. Aitb= Street 1,435 feet, 10-inch Cottage Street- 1,000 feet, 6-inc1 Arlingtort Street 1,003 feet, 9-inch The A-1t. ?auburn Street main is the particular section that has given the commissioners the most trouble, and a further section of this should be replaced during 1024. Another pr b- lein that has givea us deep concern is the difficulty in stipplying waLer can the higher elevations in town (Brennan Bill district). During the serious draught (summer and fall of 192 ) we were eornpellecl to resort to the temporary exp lient of installing a ptunp at the foot of the hill. This gave considerable relief but was not e atirely satisfactory. Some months ago the board called the attention of the Metropolitan C;o=issioners to the fact that Watertown was paying for service which t e were not getting. Later we requested and were .granted a hearing before that board, at which time case grievances were presented and fiflAy explained. We were, assured that we should have relief and that they would ini edi- ettelV make study of the problem and proceed to the execution thereof. 3 4 WAT2RTO1VN TOWN REPORT It may be necessary to go to the Lelgislattire to compel the Ale-tropalitan Board to hasten their pace if it is evident to the Water Con rnissioners that the matter is in any way being delayed. RecDn=enda.tions for future; activities and Mork of this department appear on the warrant in articles for apprupria- tiens which may be granted at the annual \,larch meeting.

REPORT OF THE ]BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE WATERTOWN FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY The `I'rtuste-us of the Watertown free Public; Library berc- %viTru submit they report of the Librali�ai for the !Fear 1923. Last year attention ivas called to the less by resignation and death of a foil half of the old Beard of Trustees. It was understood that their places would be hard to fill because of the experience and training which each of these men had had. Nevertheless, the new members who were elected in their places' have fitted in wonderfully well, and at once; Mrs. AT autghn because of her gme ml evIture and .her feminine viewpoint, R real addition tee the xricetings of the B ard, since heretofore the membership has been confined to men alone; llr. Nlinot, because of his very exceptional knowledge and. acquaintance ANith literature of the present as well as the past; and Mr. SlMw, beta-Ltse of Fiis ititinzate association with tmvn affairs anci his interest in the Library as ail institution. It is to be hoped that this Board inav be continued intact for many rears to conic. This year these are two outstanding; things to be brought to the notice of aur townspeople; in connection -with the work- of the: Library, two things which are really x ide apart, but which are of special importance. The first of these is the treat need of increased accommodations for the work ill the East Branch, and the second is the problem of host-war hood- lumism. In last year's report mc;ntion was made of the, tr=endo-as an-tount of work which was, required of the, East Branch and of the enormous success which had attended that part of cur efforts in the :fast end of the Town. These requirements continue in increased measure, and the success is of such. volume that the East Branch has become one of our most serious problems. A year ago we were comj3eYllerl to return an unexpended balance }which had been voted to us for addi- tional quarters, for the: simple reason that sttch quarters 4 REPORT of TRUSTEES , could not be found in a suitabh� lactation and at a price which we could afford to pay; today we need this additional room for our work aniore than ever, but the ec:n litiorrs are no more favorable for as to obtain it than they ivere then. From time to time we have delegated to sub-cramm-ittees from our meni- bership the efforts to find a possible place in East Watertown for us to spread out more as we should, but always i%ithuut suecess. We are therefore simply compelled to report that i1i suite of our endeavors it is at the present tilne impossible for Lis to ineet the present needs of that locality r%nd to prepare for a certain grawth which ive Imow absolutely is coming, and within a very short space of time;. So sure is this to happen that it behooves the Town to begin to take some definite action in the; directiion of supplyY-ijig adequate literary facilities for the East Branch, and if scinethin�; is not done shortty In this direction, the Trustees will d.oubtle,.w feel compelled before long to make a move toward that end by requesting the Town to appoint a coimnitt�ee to investigate conditions there and to stiggest such inethods for inecting there as their study may tiring to there. From the paint of view of necessity and economy- it is quite probable that the obtaining of a piece of land and the erection of a suitable branch library upon it before long will be found to be the ordy answer. Cer- tainly the rental which will be regirircrl for lamer quarters, and these cannot be Iong delayed, Nt ill pay the interest on a considerable. stint of money which might be borrowed for the purpose of having a building of our own.. The other of the two outstanding, things mentioned at the being of this report is the problem of hoo dltnnism, and while it is regrettable that this tnust be given emphasis its this town of ours, it will do us no ,good to blind our eyes to facts. Oc- casional disturbances perhaps are to be expected from the exuberance of youth, but for:some time these, have been increa,s- ln steadily`in number and in frequency-, until they have becorne quite cmiunon, and are a continual annoyance an(I er nbarrass.. Tnent to the members of ourlibrary staff,all of whom are women. This is not to be taken as a reflection in any way Lilaon thL Police Department of the Town, for it has done what it could and has promptly- responded. to Mir suggestions and rcquests. WATERTOWN PUBLIC, LIBRARY It is simply a condition of the tiinCS, and one which we under- Stand is gmeral in many other towns. Nevertheless, it is a condition which demands attention on our jxart, botli in the interest of law and ordcr and in the ciadeay.or.to do our duty to the Town, for which the Library was established and 1)), ��hlch it is stipported. We are coil- sidciilig the possibilitv a litJou hater in the year, if there bmprovcrnent, of asking the Town for to special apprDprintioll to cover the hii+-w (if a spceial police officer for d"tY (1111-Ing certain hours at the Main Library, We hopa that thl.", will not be necessani, ;md as the greatcr part of the trouble seen tO C0111C in the fi-M fltld dtlTing the winter, it is j)k)s;,si1-)le that we can coiitinuu as now in)til mxt fall, and perhaps by that. tirne there n-lay be an iniprovecl cuililition. For the first tinilu in many voilths the Libratiai-i was, -J)10 recently` to report that she liaci a full iivorkingr staff, all of the vacancies having been. filled. This is n-Lore. a matter of con- grattilation than niay at €irst appear, fur ive have lum, boon worldn- with a depleted force aiid the filling of poMitions as Viev have becrynic vacant has been a difficult task, since ii-,anv othcr towns wid 6'ties are in a position to offer much greater induccmtnit5 in dic way of szdary than ive. Throughout all of these rnonths, liowc-vcr, while those on the job 12,LVe I7CU11 obli,,ed to do oftentljiic iiiore than their share of work, tht-re I. has been a wMingness tQ assitme these extra tasks Viciously and with the spirit of " one for all and all for one." The Trustees ivish therefore to express at this ti-me their apprcciatic�n of this spirit and of the fccling of morale which every in(fividual member of the staff has shown. EDWIN T.

Many 111iraries havc, report(A a decrease in their circulation. Of this increase, only seventeen was fiction. Fiction has fallen froln sixtv-six to sixty-four per cent of thv circulation. The adult fiction circulation has fallen deCj(_jC(%T I)tj t there all increase, in thc juvenile delmsirtmunt ming, no doubt, to the fact that it was necessary to i7eplace heavily in that department -and the new attractive editions have stimulated the circulation. In five years we have had a twenty per cent increase ii-I OlarL Circulation. The growth of the -work of the Lmst Branch is apparcat by the Incrcii%L, of 3,778 in its circidation. We feel Sitre, that it could be much more useful if we had larger quarters so that Ow, adillt patrons world bu disturbed less by the comings and goings, of the children. I do not feel, however, that it is good emucm-nics to dcmblu our rent. It seems as if the tawnspeople M119t SOM r(-'-LdlZC th.'Lt we need (ttiarters of our own, and I refuse to give up hope that this may be brought about in UiL, near future.

Statistics show that we now own .5u.789 volt es. N'lost hbrarius have been reporting lossus mt cniv of hooks but of pages and illustrations from books. Wu have suffered in commun with others. The; poor quality of paper and binding mikes the life of a book shorter thun formi-ily, bilt when Nve are faced t4Ah wanton loss and &stmction, thy: situation is distre'ssim-'. We take an inventory evury year with the ex- ception cf the books in the stacks, which are accounted for u.very two years. AVe do not count a book lost until it appears a scic(_ time on the missing list. The follciving statistic�i md are for books lost from thic, shelves during 1921 and 1922- Adult fiction, 192.1 — 98. Juveniles, 1921 — 104. Adult fiction, 1022 — 102. juveniles, 1922 — W Adult non-fiction, 1021-19230 — 91. 12 WATERTOWN PUBLIC LIBIWZY Total for two years —494. It is to be hoped that this period of moral laxness is nearing its end. This has been a trOng year in regard to discipline in the Children's Room and abmit the grounds. It may bu advisable to proiride for a sPe-cial attendant in the Llvunin- The library has been the recipient of many gifts of books, pamphlets, papers, and photo,-naphs. For economy in printing T have omitted listing the donors but we are grateful to one and all. The custom of passing on fo the library all books for which personal need is past is a good nice, and we hope that others %%U add their contribution. The outstanding gift was a collection which we call the "Harrict Hosm-er Collectinn," given by Harriet Hogmer Carr. It consists of two marble inedaLfions by -THiss I Josmer, nunicrous photographs of her Nvorks, portraits of the sculptor, her tools, diplomas, etc. This is D- valuable additioa to Gur historical collection and I Nvish we liad R place Where we coul(I 11 ave there on exhibition. I hopc that we can buy an exhibition case this year. Neighboring libraries still continue to be of great assistance to us by loaning us books and pictures and we have had caller-t i o n-, of books in the Armenian, Italian, Greek and French languages frorn the Division of Public Libraries of the State. To them all our thanks are due. The Librarian attended the regional meeting of the Ameri- can Library Association at Silvcr BELV, N. Y., and the library has been represented by mcmbcrs of the Staff at all the meetings of the MassaChLISCAts Library Club and of the Nel,,hborhood Library Group. There have been few changes in the library buildi n,-1, but last winter we were faced with serious leaks in the roof and as the library building grows older there are likely to be an increasing number of repairs necessary to keep the building in condition. AlLich of the woodivork, furniture and 11o3rs need refinishing. The walls nced paint, It has been necessary to replace sonic of the elmirs and we must buy sorric more next year. These points as well as the necessity for an increased appropriation LIBRARIAN'S REPORT 13 for books and binding should be borue in i-nind wlwn malcing up the budget. The A-merican Libran- Association have decided that 81.019 per capita is a reasi)nable amount V) conduct a library witli zi traine(I staff and ul)-tc)-(Iatemethods. The estimated population of Watertown is 25,000 and our present appmj-ji-lation recl�oiiud on that basis is S0.726 per capita or SAU018 of the assessed tax rate. During the past year we have bccrt handicapped by n6arly 'I fifty per cent turn-over on our staff and much of the time dif- ferent departments were xiithout a head and we had Many, temporary people F-L11d substitutes, NIrs.

The vacancies have been filled by Miss Kerr, in charge of the catalc)L,iting and reference i-vurk, -Miss So-Lithworth as Children's, Librarian, and 2\11ss Sawyer as as assistant. Such as duciJed change in a staff is hard for the public as well as for thL' hibnLry, but during the shortage of assistants and periods of illness the remainin,g assistants have cheerfully filled in the gaps and we look forward to giving increased senrim (Wring 1924. 1 TV13b also to express my appreciation of the co6pera.fion and en- courag gernent which I have always received from yuu, RespcctfLilly subinitted, LYDIA W.
