WILKINS, 35 Lloyd Road SELECTMEN'S REPORT In presenting the reports of the, various Town departments under our supervision, we are pleased to call to the attention of the citizens that the past year has been productive of pleasing results, in that a fine spirit of co iperation has been shown by all heads of departments and employees, which has made the duty of the. Selectmen a pleasant one. In a growing community such as Watertown, situated adjacent to Boston, Cambridge and Newton—communities which enjoy all modern cony*er&nces—creates a desire can the { part of our citizens to be as Nell equipped as our neighbors, and we feel that-we are having all that can be reasonably asked for by the most exacting. Our police, Fire, Highway and all other Town departnivmts, we now believe, are on a par with any of our neighboring com- munities, and in many respects exccl them. We believe it is the duty of our citizens, particularly our Town Xleeting Members, to keep in close tench with all Town affairs. so that when rnatters are before there in Town Meeting for consideration and action by them, the opinion of a majority of the citizens may be complied with. The result of their action, of course, determines the amount of taxes to he levied, which is a most important feature of Town government. The question of tax rate is not governed by the Selectmen other than as refleeted by the general policy approved by tbum, and the recommendations of the Selectmen are the results of the desires rxf various sections of the Town submitted to them from time to time for consideration and reported by them to the Town Meeting for definite action.The aalnount of taxes to be levied will be regulated by the improvements required by the citizens of the Town, and voted for by their representatives in Town Meeting. It is their the duty of the Selectmen to expend the moneys so voted to the best of their ability, that the citizens may receive full rsieasure for the taxes paid by them. 19 20 WATERTOW N TO-""N REPORT Eacb year presents its new problems in addition to the ordinary requirements of the Town. . Requests for Sewer, Watgr and Drainage ira four new developments are now before us for consideration, and great care must be taken in connection with these matters in addition to the requirements for school extensions which also appear necessary at this time.

The Board of Survey have very limited pat--ers as to the character of now developments, being governed entirely by the provisions of the Survey Act, which does not pennit action by the Board of Surrey other than as to the location and ,grades of streets. An unusual number of petitions have been filed for the comtru.ction of struts under the Betterment Act and all vai,ll be submitted to the Town for consideration. The question of " pay-as-you-go " policy which has been advanced from time to time, is one that requires careful thol-i-ht, and the carrying out of which can only result its a high tax rate. We are of the opinion that by follow,,ing the provisions of the Municipal Finance Pict, which restricts the amount to be borrowed and the period for which it may be borro'.red, and provides that at least 50.25 can each $1,000 valuation of the Town (now $ ,000) shall be assessed on the tax of the current year, will relieve the evils of the past, when borrowings were made with but little thought to the future. This, however, is a policy that is entirely in the hands of the representatives of the citizens and to be determined by them in Town N-feeting. We submit fcr your consideraticn, reports of our agents of the various departments winder our charge, and invite con- structive cn'ticism which will be of Beat assistance to the Selectmen in the condur-L of To-"m affair's placed in their hands #rcm time to time by the Town. .

REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE To thr Citizens of 117alcrt n Thu budget hereWith submitted calls for an expenditure of 1,580,5 1.37, which is an increase over the total expenditures of last year amounting to 8-10,87 ,5 . The recommendations of the Finance Conmiittee show a budget calling for $1,448,378.69, which is a decrease of $91,202.68 from the requests of the various department heads, and if passed as they recommend, will call for a tax rate of about thirty-four dollars. An unusually lame part of the increase in the budget was caused by requests for advances i i salaries or for additional employees, and this problem has been a. eery difficult one for the Comrnxittee to adjust, and one to which they have devoted many- flours. As a result of these deliberations, they have come to a, realization of the difficulties which confront a large committee or body in deciding such a difficult situation and which is still further evidenced by the too frequent increases granted at Town Meetings tci individual petitioners without the slightest consideration as to the duties of the position or to the relative monetary comparison of one position to another, bd rather because of the individuality of the applicant, or of the Torn Fleeting Xlember who presents his ease, and that scrape method be considered whereby such inconsistencies as are bound to occur udder this method, may be corrected. The Finance Committee, after die deliberation, believe, and therefore reconu end that a committee of three or five men be appointed by'the Moderator or by such method as the Town Mecting may elect, to make a scientific study of the salary question of the 'Town. This committee should be composed of men who are big enougl.a to forget affiliations of all kinds, who can collect and weigh evidence, form definite, logical, and reliable conclusions, 44 FINANCE COMMITTEE DEPORT 45 and male such recommendations as will settle the question of proper compensation for all of our employees. While it is recognized that these empowered to set salaries are not legally, bound to follow such conclusions, there is no doubt of its ha-6ig a strong bearing with Town Meeting iMernbers in recommending appropriations.. The revision of the statutes in 1913 made nitinerous changes in the laws affecting city and town officials, and it appears that an attempt was made to concentrate certain general responsibilities so that the citizens could hold directly respons- ible a limited number of public officials. In cities, additional authority and responsibility was placed upon the mayor, in towns, the selectmen were given considerable additional - authority and likewise were enctu-nberc d with additional responsibilities. if Amon; the statutes enacted at that time was the one which III-nited the amount that play be expended by the various officers and boards between January I and the anneal ,Town Nlceting; all such expenditures must, under the statute, be approved by the selectmen before they are paid by the treasurer. Provision, was also made in legislation, following the general changes of 1913, which specified that the salaries of official elected shall be fixed by vote of the Town, while those of employees appointed by elected officials shall be fixed by the officer or beard appointing them. The apparent purpcase of the nurnerous changes that have been made in the past fifteen Nears was to enable munici- palities to operate on a business basis. In Town Government, the limitation of authmity of the Town officials to expend money is expressed by the Note of the people in appropriating money for the use of the several departments, and mobile the statute provides a limitation as to expenditures of those depart- ments between January 1 and the annual Town Meeting, the limitation naturally gives a certain amount of freedom to those departments and makes passible, by being based. upon the maximum inonth of the preceding year, an expenditure in excess of that of the preceding year. Technically speaking, the officials are within their legal rights to incur liabilities up to the amount expended during any one month of the 46 WATERTC)WN TOWN REPORT preceding year; hoi-�rever, it certainly is umvise and extremely unfortunate if changes are made in rags which fix upon a municipality an obligation to raise a. considerable sum of money in excess of the amount provided for the preceding year by adjustment of r, tes prior to the passage of the annual budget. It is undoubtedly within the province of thu Town to appropriate such sums of money as in its judgment are necessary to carry on the work of a department; and while, technically, an elected official might use all of this money within a relatively short period of time and be compelled to dispense with the services of the employees of the depart- ment the balance of the year, yet such a condition would be . unfortunate indeed should it come to pass. The statutes undoubtedly contemplated that: the officials be givtn sifficient authority- to conduct the affairs of the Town in an orderly and busin s-like quay, and expected, and right- fully so, that in towns the general policies � 11 be determined by thq town itself and that the officials of the town will put into execution and carry out the work as outlined by the policies established and set forth by the Town by its action in Town Nl+eeting. It is therefore recommended by the Finance (�ornrnittee that this Town Meeting declare it to be the ft[ture policy of Water- town that no salaries be again increased between January 1 and the annual To n Meeting. The incr&tsing amount of unpaid bills at the end of each current year secrns to point to the fact that but little con- sideration is paid, by the heads of the various departments, to the statute governing this caridition, and attention is therefore called to Chapter 44, Section 31, and, to the penalties as defined under Section 62 of the sane chapter. The Finance Coinmittee will, this year, subject all such items to a most critical senitiny.

In view of the above figures the Finance Corn mit-- tee most earnestly recommends that the Town Meeting Members adopt an absolutely un- questioned " pay-as-yc u-go " policy and that all moneys for annual recurring expenses be not horrowed, but placed upon the tax levy. By adopting such a policy, the large sums now outstanding will gradually be released and the money thus saved in interest may apply to the reduction in taxes or in municipal improve- ments. And Vest; of all, each Board of Selectmen %%-ill have to answer for the amounts spent during its own teen of office, and not be able to conceal, their extravagances in the debt account 48 WATERT01VIN TOWN REPORT an(I pass the burden on to succeeding administrations, and vice verse:, the credit of economical govenunent will be placed where it belongs. This may not appeal politically to most boards in their annual scramble to reduce the tax rate, but to the citizen, it means the paying for your plums as you pick them, and without question is sound finance, and must lead to clean and honest administration. The re--election of Town officers must not be dependent upon a tax rate—lout what have they accomplished? We have presented this year for your study and considera- tion, many interesting charts and figures, which, it is hoped, will enable you to reach just and proper decisions on the many difficult problems confronting you. These have been compiled at the cost of a great amount of labor and scene considerable expense, for which we feel justified, owing to the seriousness of the situation. These were &tributed to all interested parties, as well as Town fleeting Members, same (lays before the Town M=-ting, that consideration, worthy of the of ort in their couipiling, could be granted. them. And it is further suggested that the Town Meeting; Members give such earnest consideration to the recommendations of the Finance Committee as their many hours of labor and study deiiaand, and that the results of their ports may not be over- rulcd, until, at least, the reasons of their decision be thoroughly understood, Tabulated Schedule of Appropriotlnns i'Pa,raid Approprialiors Corrinriaee Ap pro hriag on ExPepided bills 1iekiwe ANkerf Rrconlwerzds 1923 1023 1923 1923 DI-11 19-14 Tars ($214,185.56) *Charles River Basin. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 53,380.66 $3,380,60 t+:i,,3so 66 83,380.65 *Counter Tax. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39,065.04 39,W5.04 39,005.04 30a 005.04 *Fire Prevention 'l tx. , . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . .. . . . . 295.81 295,81 295,81 295.81 *Metropolitan Highway Tax. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 850.00 850,OD MD.Di1 "I'14 *Metropolitan Park Tax. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . 20,201.`8 20,v91 23 20,2M.23 20,291.23 *Mct.rovolitan Sewer Tux. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30,640.0!9 30,040.09 30,6-lt og 30,640.09 *Metrovolitan Water Tax. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35,023.78 .36,023.r8_ 3.5,02378 35,02J.7S *Saldi rs' Exemption. . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 143.95 14.i.D,5 143.95 143.05 `State Tax. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 63,480.00 63,4,W).00 63,480,00 G3,480.00 *Civilian NV-ar Poll Tax. , . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . 21,015.00 21,015.00 21,015,00 21,015.00 nn *Rapid Transit Intl=estigation. . . . . . . . . . 73.38 73.38 General Administration ($71,871.80) Selectmen's Department ~° Selectmen's salaries$900, Contingencies WO . . . . 2,300.00 2,204.79, 95.928 2,200.00 1,400,00 Auditing Department W Auditor's salary$2,700; Contingencies $500. . .. . . 3,200.00 3,19G.53 3.47 3,600.0D 3,200.00 Tre surcr's Uepartment t� Trra,,;urer's salary$2,9UO; Clcrk's$400; Rand$200, � Dote and Bond expenses $150; Contingencies � f10. . . . . . ... . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .. 4,082.00 4,021,38 W62 4,784.00 4,150.00 Office equipment (committee recommends no _ 2DU-UU appropriation) Tax Collector's Department CollccCor's Wary $2,9[1L}; Cleric's salary $800, Collector's bond 00; Deputy CGIleetor's hand 320; Tax Sale Advertising 1,000; Contingencies .$500 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5,627.20 5,411.15 113.14 6,520.00 .5,520.00 Special Tax Titles. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,200.00 2,109.75 .25 2,200.00 2,200.00 * Or as Assessed. cc Tabulated Schedule of Appropriations — Coy inued UnPaid Appropriation commisfee Approprialian Expended Biors Baizffze� Asked Reeamwrnds 1923 1923 1923 IM 1024 IM Special 'Foreclosure of Tax Titles in Land Court, $930-00 $930.00 31 at $30 each Assessors' Department Salaries of three Assessors at $1,000 each, $3,00.0; Salaries, two regular clerks,$2,20 0;C nn tingenct(!,q to include extra clork hire, $3,000.

McNAINIARA, ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD The Planning Board respectfully subiydts its eleventh annual report for the year ending December 31, 1924. We were rel)rcscnLc(l by Mn Norris at the Annual Meeting' of the Massachusetts Federation of Planning Boards, which was held at Worcester on October sixth. The growth of Watertown ha--; 1:)ccn slow and steady for a great munber of years, without any big boom such as has come to some of our neighbors. The prospects for the next few years are for a more rapid development. A portion of the Lovell farm was put on the market: this year and is to be follow ed by a large, part of the balance next year. The Loci G farm has been cut up and sold to builders, who will cover the property with new homes the coming year. The Steams place on Mt. Auburn Street has been sold and plans for its subdivision are being made. New streets are being opened in Coolidge Park. Eighteen acres on -lain Street are being laid out for home sites. The old market garden places are fast 91-%ring way to the home builders. The two Coolidge fames, one time leaders in apples, pears and asparagus and the Stearns place, where the earliest potatoes were grown vAll soon be unTecDguizucl by the old folks. Watertown may be considered a dual town as it has large and irery importaiit manufacturing interests, which follow the river and the railroad and a beautiful residential section on the hillsides. No better borne sites we to be found than on our hills. We believe that the zoning act passed at the last Town Meeting will be of great value in keeping our home areas restricted to that purpose only. One of our neighboring towns had the zoning act in force two years before making any change It is interesting to note that the change made was in the line of further restrictions by setting aside a part of their area for single homes only. If Watertown does not have arestricted single home area, we shall lose to towns that lmve such a restricted area Tnany of oti-r best citizens and many other prospective citizens, who would Eke to choose Watertown as their future 66 REPORT OF TOWN PLANNING DOA2D G 7 home. '�\-17ny of our developments liave been restricted to single bowies, which has been a great help for better homes, but private restrictions have a time lunit or may be iiiped out by foreclosing a mortgage, as a number of home owners in Water- town have found out to their injury. Private restrictions arc not as stable as a zoned area. With the rapid passim; of the vacant arias, now is the time to make a study of the situation and to select and to reserve locations for future school sites, parks and playgrounds before these areas arc developed for other purposes thereby greatly increasing the cost. The Plamilag Board has had under con- sidor=ation a playground for the bast Err. We believe that the proposed action of the gown M the taking of all of tlke land between the New Coolidge School and, Mt_ Auburn Street to be a move in the right direction. Now is the time to ,see that all of our school houses have the land, which will lie sufficient for future extensions and playgrounds. There are several sections where it would be wise to consider sites for primary schools so that our younger children may have shorter walks with less danger from steam trains, electric cars and tLutOznoNles. We have many struts in toiim with the same name and distingidshed only by the designation of street, road or avenue. We have received -complaints about the difficulty of locating citizens ort these streets and of fnany errors in delivery of mail. We have sent the Board of Selectmen a list of these streets and our recommendation that in the case of accepted streets the name of one of them be changed and that streets be not accepted with a name which will be confused with the name of • an existing street. The Board has suggested new names for these streets and would be pleased to receive further suggestions of desirable names from those who live on the strects in question. In presenting these names it would be well to keep in mind the keeping alive: of the names of some of the old settlers. There may be some objection to the change of a naive after it has became established but we' believe that the advantages will cut,Nveigh the disadvantages, most of which will be teYnporary. A izame objectionable to the residents of a certain street on the north side of the town was changed a short time ago and the 6$ WATJ-IRi`OWX TOWN REPORT precedent is gourd for further changes. A lint of these streets -ith the proposed changes fallow. Adonis .Avenue:., that poition from Mt. Auburn Street to the portion of said street extending westward from School Street be rerarved Delta Road. Glen Road, which is now a continuation of Clarendon Street, be nainod Clarendon Street.

For a good mane years different organizations have tried to get Watertown on the telephone map. One of our members, Mr. Norris, wanted to see if something could not be done at , this time. After several oonfedremes vith the State Board of Public Utilities and the Telephone Company, a joint ineeting was held is-ith their representativ es and our Board. The tele- phone people objected strongly to giving W atertmim an exchange on the ground that it ivould take seven or eight years to erect, equip and put in %vorle_ing condition an exchanbe building. This would be an expensive proposition. and some one would have: to pay the bills. Ultimately it would mean increased mtcs for the telephane users. Further it would mean a cluerease in service in that 20,000 to 30,0 telephones, which Watertown REPORT Or TOWN PLANNrNG B041RD 69 eaTI call naw in Contiguous exchanges to Newton North, would he lost in that the Newton North exchange would Came between us acid the two Brookline exchanges of Regent and Aspinwall and Centre Newton and lVest Newton, They further said that we could not have Watertown for an exchange naive as it conflicts telepho ically �th Charlcstmm, an existing exchange. They also said that it was the policy of the Company to e tirninAte as fast as possible the names of towns as names for exchanges and to grant it at this time to Watertown wotddd mean the reopening of a lot of mnic contests. 1-i-Wing Watertown telephoners listed under the name of another place has created more or less confusion in addressing mail and in looking up residents and: places of business as many of Watertoum's streets carry the same Fame as many of Newton's streets. Then again a community such asWater- town desires an identity of its own and it is no more than -right that it should have thu privilege of progressing under its own colors. We suggested that the Newton North exchange be divided, the Newton half to be known under the cold nwne and the Watertown half under a new nasn:e with the same; privileges and rates as the Newton end. The telephone people said that the difficulties would prohibit relief in- this way. How- ever after a consultation with their engineers, they found that the engineering department was considering the division of the Ne%� ton , North exchange along the Lines suggested. They returned to us with what looks like an attractive prOpasal, which they iAll be pleased to carry through if Watertown shows its approval. They propose to put all the telephone subscribers in Watertown, «vho are now in the Newton North exchange (there are a few under a Belmont listing), on a board by them- selves with the :starve number as now, but under a new name. This name not to be Watertown for. the reasons mentioned above, but under a naine distinctive of the town and if possible of the surrounding territory. They are open to Fuggestions as to the name but the name chosen will have to be one that answers the test of carrying the right sound over the retire with- out liability of error. In see*en or eight years a now exchange will have to be built, which will be in the wire center of the 70 WATE3R'rQwN TOWN REPORT district. They do not premise that Watertown AvIll get this new exchangc: building but their j.-)rcscnt studies show that the present wire center is somewhere in Wa.tcrtown. Their present plans contemplate putting more territory into this exchange than the present limits of Watertown. They prornise that the new name will be ill the next December directory and they may he able to accomplish it in time for the edition next June. Watertown would in this new exchange listing enjoy the same rates and Privileges as Newton North subsen'bers do. Within a few years the name " Newton North " will he abolished and Watertown 'A�ll have to change to another name, ultimately, so why not do it now. If we change now we can have a narric associated as definitely with 'Watertown as University is tivith Cambridge, or Regent -with Brookline, and this name will be the name of the new exchange which may take in territory on all sides of the present Town boundaries. The cemetery on A-1t. Auburn Strcet at the copier of Arlington Street is one of the eldest in this part of the state. It is the resting place of the ancestors of two Presidents, James A. Garfield and Calvin Coolidge. It would be fitiirig during the terra of President Coolidge that this shot sacred in the early history of our Town should be put in proper condition and enclosed with a suitable lion fence NAth i�npressive gates and inscriptions. Standing as it does on one of our main thorriu h- fares, it woulcl snare for the attractiveness of the Town and show our reverence for its founders. " Section 29 of Chapter 93 of the General Laws of Xlasmchu- setts (with the amendment proposed by the Federation of Plan- ning_ Bnanis and enacted as Chapter 327 of 1924) authorises cities and towns to further regulate billboards, signs and other advertising de-k-ces within their respective limits by ordinance or by-law not Incon%istent with the General Laws or with the State regulations.

Many maps have been published and sometunes they have been found in our schools on which you can riot find Watertown but the smaller' towns car%,cd from Watertown are always there;. We would urge every citizen of Watertown to unite in a. big endeavor to put Watertown on the map. Our bars are working at it by the sen ice they give; our manufa.c- turers help every time they increase production; our churches are doing their part with their fine buildings and progressive membership; our schools can be a trt:rmndous Influence in putting Watertown on the map. It is not unpossible to make them the best'in the ,country. That should be our aim. Our students by high rank and attainment in the collcges, technical schools, in business and the professions will help to tautWater- town on the reap. Our Town officials by doing things much better than others are doing, by building superior streets and maldng them cleaner and more imssable after snow storms will tend to put Watertown on the map. Our police department and our fire department have their hart in putting Watertown on the map. Our fire cliief has gone far afield its doing this. In friendly rivalry we would urge every citizen to join in this' c ntest of seeing who can do the most this naming year to part Watertawn can the reap. Achievement and not words is what Counts. 1lany of the impressions of a town are gained by passing through. Watertown has been unfortunate in days past of being thotight of in terms of the old buildings of the square. All these days there was a clean and attractive home section, reaching abnos.t from the square to the top of the hills., The REPORT Or TOW X PLANNING BOARD 75 square in its poor condition overshadowed the beauty and attractiveness of the st of the Town go that Watertown was not on the map for many desirable people, who were looking for a new home. The square, is being rapidly improved and a more favorable impress is being made on those who pass through our Town. In order that everyone may know where Watertown be&s and ends we have been designing some signs, which we are trying to make differeF�t from the usual ones and which will impress forcibly some important fact about the Town and its early history. We are trying to make these sil,- M so unique that they Nvill be remembered and associated %with 'Watertown. This is the reason of our requost for an increased appropnation so that these signs may be made possible. We would urge even- citizen to send in suggestions for making better and improving our Tam-i and thus Delp in putting AlTatertown on the rna.p. Respectfully submittcd, WILLIAM W. RU G, Chairman. WILFRED A. NORRIS, Ckr}w, EDNAI�,kRD I+. WRIGHT, N IELS H. LARSEN, A.R':HUR L. 1iC?I�SE, 4 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT Watertown,n, Mass. To the Selectmen. Gentleinen: I herewith submit the following report for the, Fire Department for the year ending December 31, 1921. The total membership of the Department is thirty-five mein, classed as follows.One permanent chief, two permanent captains two permanent lieutenants, one call captain; one call lieutenant; one niechanician; twenty-seven pennanent ladder and hosemen. On July 1, Walter D. Rundlett, after a very creditable service of twenty-three years as a callman, resigned because, of his appointment as Superintendent of the Water Department. Can December 24, Jahn J. Murphy, leaving served the Town as a callman and permanent man over a period of thirty-nine years, N,vas retired on pension. During the year two promotionswere made, t�vo privates being raised to the office of lieutenant. Two additional risen were appointed to fill the vacancies left by these promotions. These promotions and appointments were made in accordance with civil service regulations and in both cases men were chosen from the head of the lists. The promotions and appointments have proven satisfactory and have aided materially the increased effacieacy in the Department. Tires and Al=s During the year the alarms and losses have increased to an alarming figure. Each year it appears that the year ending is a record breaker and this year is no exception. For the first time we have responded toover three hundred alarms, the total for the year lacing three hundred and eight. One hundred a.nd ninety-nine of these were still alarms and one hundred and nine were bell alarms. This is an increase of twenty-four alarms over 1923. F 76, { REPORT of FJRE DE PARTMENT 77 With the increase in alarms came a corresponding increase in losses. The losses for the year were well over one hundred thousand dollars. Of the lasses seven of the same covered factory fires entailing; a loss of sixty-five thousand dollars which is an unusual figure as factory fires in the pant have gq'ven the Department very little trouble. Throughout the year more rigid and nitmerous inspections have been made by the Department than in any previous year. Citizens were advised of the clanger from fire, fire hazards, and instructed in fire prevention, but regardless of this we find that 95 per cent of the fires should never have occurred and were clue to carelessness and negligence with the result of a tremendous fire lass.

Ai-iiong other items they recommend a ladder truck for the East End of the town. This has been recommended by me since 1915, but nothing has been dome. The present and only. ladder true we have is now in its tenth year of service and (luring the past year has shoe- actual signs of near. Shcnild we have a break-dawn in this much used piece of apparatus we ivould certainly find ourselves badly handicapper, and as a. ladder truck is the most important piece of apparattts in a fire department it is not safe to depend on only one, especially when the one -re have has been in service so long. WATERTOWN TOIN"N REPORT It must be realized teat an order for a piece of apparatus placed in April means a. delivery in September, and judging from the growth of the town the past t,�%7o years and the condition of the present ladder track as mentioned previously, I believe it unsafe to put off any longer the purchase of an additional ladder track for this Department. Plans have bean provided for an addition to the Fast; End Station to house a ladder truck and additional mien. This is important, but pending this addition, the ladder truck could be housed at the Central Fire Station. The Town has grown tremendously but the Fire Department has not grown in proportion and lust as sure as we have increased alarms and lasses, so will we have increased insurance rates. No insurance will compensate for a possible lass of life. We should, therefore, do our utmost to protect the lives and property of our citizens and I urge upon the citimns of the Town the necessity of an appropriation for the pureba.se of a ladder truck at once. Should I receive this additional piece of apparatus this year, I %A11 do my utmost to man it:, for the present at least, with the iiumber of men we now Dave. Other special appropriations asked for 1925 are cut to the minimum in order to give way if passible to the purchase of this trunk. I recommend an appropriation of five hundred dollars for the purchase of hose to replace worn or discarded. loose. I recommend an appropriation of two hundred ancl seventy- five dollars to replace tires on Engine Two. I recommend an appropriation of one hundred and fifty- five dollars for a new fire alarm box in the vicinity of Mount Auburn and Arliiigt€n Streets. I recommend that; the Department of Wires, having charge of the fire a.larin system,• be given every encouragremant to taring our fire alann system up to the higliest: standard of efficiency. Many of our boxes are old and obsolete and should be renewed; others having doors with rotary bell attachment should be discarded. The fire alarm system is recognized as the heart of the Fire Department as a delay in receiving alarms r may result in the loss of life and heavy damage to property. REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT 79 With the number of alarms we now receive, it is ilnpoi'ta.nt that this system be as nearly perfect as possible. I "believe this can be accomplished v6t_hcut any great expense. It is desirable that the fire alarm systems of Waltham and Watertown be connected for our Mutual advantage. I recom- mend that this be given your earnest consideratian. I would report at this time that the old steam fire engine is no longer reliable as a fire fighting unit and is now in storage in a building owmed by the VVater Department on Orchard Street. With the exception of the ladder truck, mentioned.previously, all apparatus and equipment is in good condition. The discipline of the Department dming the year has been eery good. The men-continue to respond to all a.larnis while off fluty and show a willingness at tal times to render the hest service possible. I wish to express my thanks and appreciation for their co6peration and the excellent service rendered. I also thank all citizens for their support at><d encouragement and the generous consideration shown this Department at all tunes. I also thank the School Department for their coopera- tion in fire prevention work; many hours of their valuable time has been taken by the chief of this Department in the classrooms Avith good results. In behalf of the members of this Department I desire to thank the Honorable. Selectmen for their encouragement and assistance. For a detailed report of the Departirient expenses refer to the auditor's report. Respectfully submitted, JOHN W. O'HEARN, Chief f of Fire IDeparintent. REPORT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT Watertown, 1+Iass., January lei, 1925. To tl c Honorable hoard of Selectoien. Gentlemen: The report of the Inspector of Pales and Wizes for the year 1924 is here-Rith submitted. 1ATires were transferred and crass-arms put up on iron poles between Green Street and Chestr ut Street in order to enable the Edison Electric Company to renege the old poles. fires were transferred on Dexter Avenue and new cross-arms were aaist,alled. Repairs were inade to the lines on Edhecliffe Toad and Hillside Road and wires were transferred to new poles set in there by the Edison Company. Vires were also trans- ferred and ne-w cross-arms installed on to new poles on Crass Street; which were set in by both the Edison Company and the New England Telephone and Telco aph Company. Wires and cross-anns were also transferred on Fayette Street, Pleasant Street, and Oakland Street. Circular loom cable was rtm on Howard Street, on 'lain Street between Stuart Street and Iloward Street; on Lexington Street between Main Street and Warren Street; on Gilbert Street between iiMain Street and Highland Avenue, and on rWaverley Avenue between Main Street and Fayette Street. New cross-arms were also installed on 'Ylain Street between Stuart Street and Howard Street. All the agave circular loom cable was put, in to prevent barn outs and remove hazards. Transferred wires and put up now crass-arms on to new pales set in by the Edison Company an Myrtle Street. Cables and crass-arms were transferred on to new pales in Waverley Avenue as tho Edison Company changed the location of their pole line in front of the INIarsha.11 Spri-air School. Whenever the corporation o,,vning pale lines makes such cha,ng s, it is necessary for the town to transfer their lines and boxes to the new pales. Seven tappers were transferred to liew locations and three 80 REPORT OF WIRE I) PART.'+lFNT 81 fire-alarrrm bores and one police box were transferred On to ne"r Poles. Six-pin crass-arms were installed and wires and boxes transferred can to new pales can Mount Auburn Street, between School Street and Arlington Street. Six old fire-alarm boxes, which had been burned out, were r c.placed by new, up-to-date boxes, at a cast to the Town of 8810. 1 recornmend that nine of these old faxes be retired this year. The Gamewell Company will allow $15 each for the old boxes and the new boxes would therefore cost; the; Town only $1,215. The recent catastrophe in Boston should show the nocessity for this change, and it is also strongly insisted upon by the National Board of Fire Undem ricers. We still have a. number of these old loxes, which have been in use for many years, and if a similar change were made every year all the antiquated loxes would be soon replaced by the modern boxes. We now have ten fire-alarm boxes with keyless doors, vdich should be changed to the quick-action doors. This change can be made at a cast to the Town of about one hundred fifty dollars. When a box with the keyless doter is opened the doer bell gives a loud ring, which is oftentimes mistaken for the fire-alarin by the person opening the door. The fire alarm, however, does not ring ,until the hook is pulled down. This condition would be remedied by installing the new doors. At the time the keyless doors were installed, they were the then latest type. The fire-alarrn boxes were: inspected and tested during the year as often as the demands of the other work: of the Department allowed. New Construction New crass-arms were put up, new wires run and a fire-alarm box installed at the Town Ward. A traffic gong and new police box were installed on the traffic post in Beacon Square. Interior Wiring , A tremendous a.niount of interior wiring was done in the Town in 1924, Over eleven thousand inspections were made and about a thou&end permits for mirrent were issued to the 821 WATERT'Ub4 N TOWN REPORT Edison Company. The year 1925 premises now to surpass this record. The new car supplied the Department in 1924 greatly facilitated the work of interior inspections. The instruments and desk at the police station are wom out and a new desk with the necessary equipment to take care of fixture requirements for outdoor signal lights and horns, should be installed at once. The present desk is actually beyond repair, The Town has outgrown n the fare-alarn-i headquarters at the engine house. A fire-proof house should he built and fitters with the proper equipment for the fire-alarm and police signal systems, in order to adequately safeguard, life and property. A committee should be appointed to mmt with the inspector and give this subject the attention it deserves. The N%tires on -klount Auburli Street, between Bailey Road and Cottage Street, should be placed underground. 'There should be private telephones at fire headquarters on Main ' Street and at Engine House No. 2 on Mount Auburn Street. If the underground work is dome we cm ld make pro-v.Molls for extra wires in the cable to tape care of these telephones. This would also enable us to have the Belmont fire-alarm signal connected at fire headquarters as'well as at Station Two. The cost of this work is constaultly increasing and it should be giver unmediate attention. If this underground work is not done, necessary repairs must be Inade to the lilies on Mount Auburn Street in the very near future. 'The street lights of the Town have been attentively cared for this year. All ne-w lights ordered in by the Board of elect- men were located by the superintcndent of street lights so as to light the streets properly and give the lest satisfaction to the abutters. Prompt attention -was also givea to all notifications received that street lights were not burlimi g. Every report: was immediately taken up with the E&son Conlpa.ny and it, was seen to that burned-out or broken lamps were at once replaced. Lamp InAallu{ioros Et reeled Lamps InOtAled 1 600 C.

Cru, ne The reports of various cities and towns indicate a constantly increasing problem vxith regard to crime. Criminal violations of the more serious type appear to be can the increase. The record of the Town during the past several years has been such as to compare very favorably With the best protected, cornaiuni- ties. When considered with the records of the neighboring Cities and towns, atertown's problern of cri e again illustrates the results of the able and efficient manner in which the members of the Department have cociperated to axd. lessening crime. Liquor Laws During the year especial efforts were made by the Depart- ment in the suppression of viclations. of the liquor laws. While the number of arrests because of -,iolation of these laws has shown a decrease, this reduction has been accounted for by the lessened violations rather than any reduced amount of interest upon the part of the Department. The additional State regulations with regard to liquor violations as accepted by the voters at the time of the last election has greatly increasers the responsibility of local police authorities; and the members of the Department have continued 94 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT to accept all the added responsibilities of the newer la,.vs_ The cooperation of the various curie organizations interested in this problem has been of considerable assistance to the Depart- ment in its work. Recommendations It is recommended that. the Ford sedan, now in use In this Department, be turned in and replaced. This machine has been driven approximately twenty-five thousand miles. This transfer could lac made at an expense not exceeding $325. 1 recommend the purchase of a new touring car. The old Hudson, at present in use, to be turned in as part payment. This transfer could be made for $1,200. It is recommenclecl that the five motorcycles attached to this department be turned in and replaced, These cycles have . done eery valuable work during the past season in the handling of the ever increasing automobile traffic. Motorcycle word: is hazardous and for this reason it is my opinion that the best equipment should be furnished the men detailed to this particular work- in order to insure, as far as passible, Vie safety of the men ricl_ing same. This transfer could be made at an expense not exceeding $700. It is recommended that a police-box be installed about mid-way on Spruce Street. I recommend that a spotlight be placed over the post of the traffic officer at the corner of Bigelow Avenua and Mt. Auburn Street; for the protection of the officer, and which, in my opinion, will enable him to give better service. It is recommended that the stun of 150 be appropriated to run steam pipes from the boiler to the garage. The garage has been unheated for the past two years. I recommend the appointment of two additional mien to this Department. I beg to call your attention to the fact that our signal service is not up-tea-elate, and it is rccommen&d that the new system be installed whereby the officer in charge of the staticn may get into quick communication with patrolmen on their routes. I believe the time is at hand when this matter should be given serious consideration. REPORT Or CHIEF € 12' POLICE 9 115 Traffic The control of traffic has continued to be a major problem, With the increased number of motor vehicles, and improvements in highways leading to and from the Town, the problem of traffic conditions ,grows in importance. Despite the fact that the amount of traffic can the streets has nearly elotibled during; the past year, it is gratifying to report but a slight increase: in the number of automobile acci- dents, and a remarkable decrease in fatalities Clue to this cause, In 1923 eight; persons Nvere killed in automobile accidents in the Town, while but one fatality due to this cause occLu-r-ed during the past year. This, ui my opinion, is clue to the excellent work clone by the traffic officers. " Slow Th.cm Down " has been the slogan for this branch of the work. During the year 378 offenders were prosecuted for violation of the automobile laws, this being an incr&,ise of 122 over 1923. The responsibility for traffic accidents, involving both nactorist and pedestrian, seems to be about " fifty-fifty." It, therefore, seems equally as important that the pedestrian be informed of, and observu,. the laws of the road as the motorist. The habit of watchfulness and alertness insist be acquired by him, and practiced as the same is rewired by the motorist. Pedestrians must remember that they have a joint responsibil- ity with the drivers of motor vehicles. Many pedestrians are Filled and many more injured because they attempt to crass the highways without thinking ;whether or not a motorist can see; them. They step out froin behind, obstructions and off the sidewalks suddenly, often snaking it impossible for the driver to strap his car. To educate the walking; public is lust as necessary as teach- ing the driver of motor vehicles to recognise and observe regulations, Many people, othemise entirely careful and well-praised still take all manner of chances when crossing a street, 'Theis habits of inind have not chaired since the day of home-drawn vehicles. We recognize the motor vehicle as a thing; inherently power- ful and inherently dangerous, and its presence on otir streets and highways is upon license only. The operators of such vehicles are hedged about with all stunner of regulations, 96 IVATERTd-TN TOWN REPORT designed and intended to secure the safety of ilie general public, and this is as it should be. carnpaigns of the `a safety first " bind have been numerous, but most of the work of safety education has been directed at the motorist. A study of the traffic laws and regulations will slow that they are not made for the government of the motorist alone, but that pedestrian as well is included. We find that pedestrians are often prohibited from standing on the curb so as to block access to and from the crosswalks; and that at points where a traffic officer is stationed, pedestrians are bound equally with the 1otorist, to observe and be governed by the directions of the traffic officer as evidenced by his signals. Yet how often de we see the pedestrian crossing the street in the middle of the block, disregarding the signals of a traffic officer, blocking the crosswalks at inter- sections, and going directly counter to the direction of the traffic officer. Some pedestrians assert that they have a right on the highway and any part of it is superior to the rights of the motorist, and that, therefore, the motorist is bound absolutely to look out for them. Surely a pedestrian has a right on any part of the highway, perhaps an inherent right as some claim, but Nvhy harass the driver of a motor-vehicle by bobbing up at any tunic where he has no reason to expect that any pedestrian will be, because according to the rules of the highway, the pedestrian is violating the laws by ,using that part of the street. That is what happens whei-i a pedestrian " jay-walks"; he is where, in the interest of safety, he is forbidden to be. Generally spealdng, motorists are trying to observe -the la,.Fs and all traffic regulations, but so long as we have the 57, and then some, varieties of regulations existing in our 48 states and hundreds of cities, what chance has he always to be right: He is within the laws of his own hoi-ne town and State, but ten miles frain home, what was a la%vful act be;cornes unlawful because of the diversity of traffic laws and ordi-nances in the several states and towns and cities. In sum ring up it seems that those who walk need educa- tion on the subject of traffic rules and regulations just as much as those -who pilot motor vehicles over: the roads. REPORT of CHIEF or POLICE 97 Conduct of Officers The members of the Department, as a rile, have shown a disposition to comply -�%Fith all requests made upon thein and have displayed promptness and enemy in the discharge of their duties. Conclusion In conclusion I wish to express to the Justice of the Second District Court, the Clerk of said Court, the Honorable Board of Selectmen, and the members of the Police Department, guy appreciation for their cooperation during the past year. Respectfully submitted, JOHN F. MILMORE, Chief of Police.

REPORT OF TOWN COUNSEL Boston, ivlass., January, 15, 1925. To the H unorable Board of.Selectmen. 11,01e4M.12, muss. Genttepnen' I herewith submit my report: as Town Cotm"-'Cl for the year ending Decernl)er 31, 1924. The work of the office has consisted mainly in advising various town departments as to legsl questions in -which the town was interested. I have attended to various hearings at the State House relative to cases on NTvrk~men's Compensation, telephone rates, an appeal case on a. garage permit, and various other matters in which the town was a part-. An appeal case is now being heard M' which the Perkins Institution and Massachusetts Schaal for the Blind questions the validity of a tax assessed upon its property on Riverside Street and Fifield Street recently acquired and outside its old lochs. I have been present at all regular meetings of the Board of Selectmen and sonic special meetings when requested to be present. The case of Hairlet v. 7mNm of NVatcrtown mas. argued in the Supreme Judicial Court within a few clays after my appoint- ment. I prepared a brief on the same. The case was on a claim for injuries received for a defect in the side-walk in the year 1918, on Pleasant Street near the entrance to the L. C. Chase Co. plant, and a verdict had been rendered against the town in the Superior Court for S2,190 in the year 1922. The town took exceptions to the judge's refusal to take the clucstion away from the jury. The questionwas a °ery narrow one, and, of course, if the jury were justified in any event in finding for the plaintiff on the evidence in the Superior Court, the excep- tions of the defendant could not be sustained. The Court found for the plaintiff and the toivn was obliged to settle for the sum of $2,363.48. The following eases were settled: Mrs. Etta Kelley, for .83 5 I�9 130 WATERTOWN TOWN ]REPORT for iniuries received by reason of a 'muter meter projecting through the concrete sidewalk, whereby claimant was tripped up and fell. Two old yes in the Superior Court were settled, Stephen E ava.fnan and Nellie B. Conant. I had several interviews with the attorneys, Hutchins & Wheeler, Sears Building, Boston, relative to their clients, Isabella H. Adams et ad, giving to the town about 1:3,000 square feet of land and am pleased to say that same was deeded to the tmNrn without any considcra.tion lacing paid therefor, subject -only to the restriction that it shall be forever used for part` purposes. This tract is called "Adams Avenue Delta.," and is located on a part of the Alvin Adams Estate. The town owes a vote of thanks to 11cssrs. Hutchins & Wheeler, and also to the heirs of Alvin Adams. for this generous gift. The town, after several years, has :succeeded in ,getting title to about 16,443 square feet of land bounded by Main Street, Galen Strut and Aft. Auburn Street Extension, and the deed has been recorded. The only restrictions that were imposed by ll etrol_-�oliUm District Commission were that the premises are to be usedd for park purposes and no structruxes erected oil same except that a flag pale may be permitted thereon. A atunber of deeds have been drawn and owners of corner' lots asked to deed land for rounding of street comers. This is a great improvement to the town and shows progressive spirit on the part of the tam-n. There arc pendhi,g at present several rases against the town: 1. Sunpsoan Bros. for the flooding of a cellar at or near the corner of Spring Street and Mt. Auburn, on February 26, 1918, whereby a lark supply of groceries was clainncd to have been spoiled— an action of tort for $6,000, 2. Mary E. O'Brien for an inju y received November 7,1921, by falling into a trench on Belmont Street, awing to the fact; that same was not properly guarded or lighted;—an action of tort for $4,000. 3. ` ,,ko suits of Dennis Donavan and George B. Elxnes for injuries received by remon of an aut ornobile gvial;into.a trench on heft. Aubuni Street on November 16, 1023, -Y�Thcn Richdale REPORT OF TOWN COUNSEL 131 Oil Company was putting; a sewer connection on Mt. Auburn Street, Watertown —both actions of tort for $2,000 each. 4. The case of Stone v. Gladys R. Brawn (now Hubbard) for an alleged assault opera a scholar in the schools of Watertown by a teacher, now pending in the Superior Court. l wish to thank the members of the various departments of the town for their co-operation and help in salving the town's problQm s. Respectfully submitted, ALTER C. STONE. Tic Counsel. f BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE r atejrtc wn, Mass. To the Board of Public 141elfare. Gentlemen: f herewith submit my report as Agent for the year ending December 31., 1924. Mothers' Aid Aid has been rendered through this Department to one htuldred and forty-five individuals, or twenty-nine families, dtu-ing the past year. Of this number, five farnMes were living out of town but had Watertown settlement. Nineteen families have received aid through the entire year, while aid to six has been of less than six months' duration each. Five families have been dropped because of last settlement through hire years absence from Town, or they had become self-supporting through children having reached working age and thus earning, Five new families taken on will remain, and the new year opens with t -ent F-four cases on the books. The number of children in these families varies fron-1 two to eight, and the aid is made proportionate, the amount given ranging froriz SS to $22 per Nveek, though the average coast per family for the year has been about SIG per week. The general health of those people has been very ,good, though a few have required hospital care:, and there has been one death during the year. The baskets given at Thanksgiving and Christmas by numerous indivi4hials and organizations were most helpful, and appreciated by the recipients. The manufacturers of the Town have responded most kindly to our appeals for work: for our gro-vizig children when they reach the worldng age, for the State is most closely watch- ing to make sure that the earning capacity is fully exercised that the aid may be correspondingly reduced. 132 REPORT OF BOATED OF PUBLIC WELPARL 133 Outside Aid Through this Department aid has been given to two bundred an6 forty-nine individuals. This covers thirty-two families or one hujndx'ed and sixty persons to whom partial or entire support has been given. Twenty-three children, with one or bath parents gone, are being boarded by the 'down, some in private homes, others in institutions, some with relatives and others in care of the State. These are all long cases„ and hvy ones, for they are under the care of the Town for support through a settlement which holds till they have acquired for themselves a new settlement, which means till they reach the age of twenty-sip: years. Elevon of these cases have had hospital care entirely, and are mostly of long standing, and consequently of great expense. There has been one death among these during the past yeax. But three Burials have been paid by the ' 'own, and some of this expense is reimbursed by the State. Fourteen agr=d persons are cared for in their o".vn homes with partial support from the Town, and five have been given a home in the Almshouse. The aid ,given varies from �2 to $22 per week, and there is in this departanent a smaller return by reirnbursenient than in the Mothers' Aid. Many of these people were also most kindly rernernbered at Thanksgiving and Christmas time, and this not only brings cheer and plcasure-into the home„ but helps in the family budget. The cases in this Department are mare of a temporary condition, for lack of work or sickness most often bringer this need for help, when, howevor, the cause has been removed, the people are able to do for themselves. A larger appropriation has been asked for the corning year because of so many long and expensive cases which must receive our financial assistance. Respectfully submitted, MRS. A. L. PENKIIA-I, Age;at. REPORT OF ALMSHOUSE DEPARTMENT To the I1onorable Board of Parke lT%elfare. evilonen: 1 respectfully submit the following report as keeper of the almshouse for the year ending December 31, 1924. The almshouse is in excellent condition throughout the entire building, and accommodates in a comfortable and whole- some manner all who seek protection and shelter beneath, its roof r have tried to give the inmates the best of care, and attend to all their reasonable wants, and they are getting along as well as could be expected, considering their age and infirmities. Their general health has been very good, those with chronic ailments excepted. The food furnished is of good quality, well prepared, and plentiful. General conditions are practically the same as last year with a larger mmnber of inmates. There Nvere seven im-nates at the beginning of the year and ten at the close. The whole number of ini-hates lia.s been fifteen, the largest number at one time eleven, the smallest, seven; the average number eight. One ininate was removed to the 1'67altham Hospital, one to the l'sychopatluc Hospital, one, in care of relatives and two to another place of support. Practically all of the inmates are incapacitated in some way from doing any manual labor, one being an invalid, confined to her bed. A new maple floor was laid in the dining roorn together with other repairs; repairs were also made to the entrances and the bathrooms; one room was newly papered and several ceilings were kalsomined, and moor repairs were made to the steam bailer. The usual acreage was tilled, and after the house was sup- plied with vegetables, the surplus was sold. i would recommend that the alrns1iouse and stied be given two coats of paint, that the necessary repairs be. made in connection with the same, and that the sum of $800 be appro- priated. 14 REPORT OF ALNILIOUSE DEPARTMENT I would recommend that the roof on the south side of the shed be either shingled or slated, and that the suns of 250 be appropriated for the same. It will he necessary to have the brick work which encloses the steam boiler rebuilt; new screens are needed; the milk room should be sheathed; and two sinks should be replaced that have outlived their usefulness. I wish to thank the Town Physician for his careful attention to the sick. I appreciate the ldndness of Watertown Council, knights of Columbus and the visitors and friends who remem- bered the inmates at Christmas, and at other times throughout the year. In closing, I wish to thank your Honorable Board for your kind and courteous attention. Respectfully submitted., GEORGE H. AVEITEP Weeper of Ahnshouse, RRIPO T OF TOWN PHYSICIAN Watertown, Mass., January 1, 1925. To the Hoiwrable Board of Seleapnen. Genilmne ne I herewith submit the following, my report as Town Physician for the year 1924. Five hundred and thirty-nine consultations have been made during the year— Methers' Aid, Outside Aid, Police, Fire, Health, Highway, and Water Departments. Severat conferences with the Board of Selectmen and the heeds of the various departments, Duties of the office largely increased during the past year. A well equipped first ail rooin has been installed in the police station, which has been used many tines to advantage, in the care of the sick and injured requiring st-rical attention. The arnbulance service of the Police Department, now improved, is efficient, comfortable and up-to-date. The Police Department has been prompt when called upon to render ambulance senvice.

Gentlemen: I herewith present nay report for the year ending December 31, 1924. Fifteen suspected uses of rabies reported, four of the above ntunber were positive. All other animals subject to inspection for contagious diseases, have been examined, also the sanitary conditions under which they are housed. Respectfully submitted, JESSE F. HUMPHREVILLE. 137 R-E.IRORT OF THE TREE WARDEN Watertown, Mass., January 16, 1925. To the Ciiiuc;w of Wat town: The annual report of the Tree Warden is herewith submitted. During the past year, thirty-five dead and dangerous trees Mere removed and sixteen trees were removed on petitions of abutters. Pruning was vane on all Town treas so far as the appropriation would permit. On July 17 the wind stoma wrecked four trees, and the wi id storn-i of August 26 also wrecked four poplar trees on 'Alaplewood Street. All these trees then had to be taken out. In the spring and fall one hunched and thirty-two (132) new trees were sct out. Seventy-eight of these trees were set out on petition of the abutters, and the other fifty-four were used for replacement and on Town property. For the year 1925 I recommend an increase from $1,000 for the salary of the Tree Warden to $1,200 and an increase for the clerk from $125 to S2,00. Y also recarmnend an increase from $3,500 to $4,000 for labor, as the appropriation for labor has no't been sufficient to admit of nmk ang repairs on trees which were injured during the ice sto= three years ago.. For detail of the expenditures of the Department for the year 1924 see Auditor's Report. Respectfully submitted, VALE D. HORTON, Tree Warden. 13S REPORT OF TITE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE MOTH DEPARTMENT Watertown, Mass., January I5, 1925. 77re Honorable Board of Selecli;w t Gewlemm- The report of the Moth Department for the year ending December 31, 1924, is herewith submitted. During the past year the work of suppressing the gypsy and browntail moths was carried on in the usual manner, niith goad results. During the fall and winter months, the gypsy math egg clusters were painted and the browntail moth nests were cut from the trees and burned. In no part of the Town can gypsy or browntail moths now be found in a, dangerous number. Our greatest trouble now is with the satin moth and the white aphis. These pests cause a great drat of haTTn to our trees. The best method of suppressing them is extensive spraying. Owing to the work- carried on against the white aphis in 1924 the infestation from this pest is vasty* improved. The work should be carried on again this year in order that the good results from the previous year's work should not be lost. In order to carry on the work of the Department efficiently* for the year 1925, 1 recominend an appropriation of $5,700 for the suppression of gypsy, brewntail, satin moths and white apliis. Respectfully submitted, JOHN G. FORD, Superintendent of Mali Department. 13S] REPORT~ OF PARK COMMISSIONERS '"ratertownt Mass., January 15, 1925. To the Gitiseus of 1-1%aterlown. The Park Commission respectfully submits its report for the year ending December 31., 1924, as follows. The past year has been a very busy and interesting year for the entire Department. Problems of wider scope, greater variance and detail than in fornier years have been met with, and considering our limited resources, successfully salved; much credit being due to the efficiency of our superintendent, Mr. Van D. Horton. The various parks and deltas within our jurisdiction have been cared for and re-conditioned wherever necessary, with the exception of Adams Avenue delta which we were unable to care for on account of insufficient funds. Emergency operations at Saltonstall Park were necessitated by the sudden weakening of the ancient cannon supports. These supports were made of wood, and decay at critical paints was found to be increasing with alarming rapidity. The fact that children were in the habit of playing around and climbing upon these cannons made it imperative that in-iniediate action be taken. As a result the cannons were quickly dismounted, the old supports demolished and new ones of cenient erected.. This year we have experimented with a skating rink at Victory- Outfield. Haring had the use of some old fire hose, through kindness of Chief O'Hearn, we were able to spray a considerable portion of the outer field during freezing weather. By this method a fairly sinooth and solid piece of ice was built tip. Not only has this skating rink been used by hundreds of children, but by many adults as well. In addition a number of applications for hockey gaGines were received at this office. The popularity of this venture has been so great that undoubtedly next year we will have to build up a first class rink on the inside field particularly in view of the fast growing; interest in hockey. 140 REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS 141 The two tennis courts at Winthrop Street have been in constant use by both young and older people. A study of the tennis situation has shown that many of our townspeople have been in the habit of traveling to ether nearly towns and cities to play; a large percentage going either to the courts at Harvard University or to Riversid,c Recreation Grounds, Auburndale. In view of these facts, we are of the opinion that twenty-four courts well maintained are very much needed to meet this situation. This would entail considerable expense to the Fawn and therefore at this tin-ic (under recominendation) we are asking for nceessary financing and authority to construct twelve courts on the fon-ner Town bump opposite; Victory Field. Recommendations Requiring Special Appropriations A new granolithic walk running diagonally through Salton- stall Park is needed very badly. The question of money to pay for this walk is brought before the Town each year and is just as regularly turned dorm. We have received many complaints in regard to this situation and cannot urge too strongly that the ` own take favorable action can it. The follovdng necessary changes and improvement at Victory Field are recommended: The room in west end of grandstand should be broken open; doors and Nvindows installed and a cement floor laid. A flash wall running the entire length of the grandstand should be put in before the spring games. Fight field fence should be set up on the rise, and an eatensioii to left field fence should be made. '['his field is too sma 1 for baseball played by boys sixteen gears and older. Right field is extremely short and left field is too short for many of our high school players, to say nothing of more inature players. Therefore we believe the most economical remedy is the treat- ment of the fences as previously stated. A three wire electric system should be installed at the field; request of IN"ire Inspector. It is recommended that the parcel of land formerly called the " Town Dump " be turned over to the Park Department for recreation purposes. It is further recommended that the Town appropriate a stun of tnone_y necessary to construct, equip and maintain twelve tennis courts on this piece of property. 142 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Division of Maintenance Casts for the past year: Saltonstall.

IBlazo offered report of Committee to Investi- gate Oil Burning Apparatus in School Buildings. Report of the Committee to Investigate the Matter of Burning Coil in the School Buildings of the Town as Authorized at the Town Meeting of February 11, 1924 The subject of burning oil for generation of poi-,Fer and the heatifig of industrial establishments, afhce Buildings, public b-Lilldinl;s, schoGls, apartment houses, and homes has occupied to Ea great extent the attention of the owners of such btlilaigs, their architects and engineers, during the past few years because of the high price and apparent scarcity of coal. Investigations laade by solve of these people indicated that a con-version to oil would give many advantages and also reduce the actual cost of production of steam. The cast of conversion Nvas the only obstacle. However whcae funds were available and the conversion made, these people have realized their anticipated advantages and would greatly regret having to revert back to coal. Your ecrfnrnittee has invest)gated some of these installations. The advantages claimed are apparent. In addition to a reduc- tion in cost of operation soinc of the advantages can be enumer- .ated as follows. The rapid production of heat, ease of control, less attention from janitor or fireman, freedom from dirt and dust, freedo n from smoke, and the ability to meet overload demands on the boilers. While it is recognized that some architects and eia ineers do not favor oil burning, it is found onquestioning these individuals that each bailer plant is treated separately and that the fuel used depends upon the wish of the client. The advantages outlined above could be obtained in any school in the Town, but in order to arrive at what might Be expected in the -way of casts, the conurn ttee has finally con- centrated its attention on the present Senior High Schaal. This school Imms approximately 2.1550 tons of hard coal at S14.50 per tors or a total $3,625 per year and requires in addition to the janitor one fireman at S1,050 per year making a total of S4,675 for fuel and labor, neglecting the cost of asks rcrnoval which must be borne also by the Tfmmiria. If this school was ]RECORD OF 'TOWN MEETINGS 167 converted to coil turning it would require 40,000 gallons of oil at a cost of 5Y2 celzts laer gallon or a total 92,200. To this trust he added the cost of electric power estimated at 860, making a total of 92,260. This represents a. saving; of 81,365 per vear over using coal. When using oil the services of the fireman can he dispensed N%Ith and the janitor alone can give the equipment its small amount of attention. If this was done a, further saving of 51,0.50 could be made or a total of $2,415 for the building. Of the various equipments investigated the Ballard Oil Burning Equipment Company's apparatus appears to he the most suitable and economical. 'Flus apparatus will atonvze Nvha.t is known as the heavy fuel oil, which is the cheapest of oils and at the same time of thQ greaat,cst heat value. The cost, of this equipment installed ready for operation is S32 7. If the installation of this system only saved the To,,ern S1500 a year, it woWd pay for itself in two years. Any saving after that period will of course be a direct saving to the 'Town. 'iF hile the figures given alcove are based on the present price of coal and anestimated slight increase over the present price of oil, this method of estimating appears to be a reasonable one. Recon=endations: This committee therefore recommends that a committee be appointed with authority to convert the heating plant of the; Senior high School to barning all and that the Town appropriate the sum of $3,237 for this mrork.. This committee is instructed to report not later than the next Annual Town Meeting on the operation of the oil burning system installed. HAROLD B. BLAZO, Chal'"nair, I1 RLDERICK F. HALE, JOSEPH R.

For almost three quarters of a century, Judge Abbott lived in Watertown. Fear more than half a, century he engaged in the practice of law. During all those years of useful activity, he constantly manifested endurhig qualities of mind and heart which won our respect and affection. AlthOugh ill health in his later years dies not permit him to take an active part in Town affairs, Judge Abbott, a Town %Iecting Member, nevertheless evinced a keen interest, and was outspoken in his advocacy of all matters of -%rital interest to the welfare of our Town and our citizens. His comprehensive e-*ledge of fundamental legal principles, found almost daily expression in the conduct of the affairs of his Court. The crii-rinal side of the Court, particularly, revealed his broad .and kindly hiunanity; his genuine interest in and Maternal solicitude for juvenile offenders, were among; his outstanding chara.cterisUcs; he could be severe when the occasion demanded severity; but he sought to correct and assist rather than conriemn and punish. These elements in his,character iirill live long in the.memories of those who appeared before him. The family life of Judge Abbott was marked by a singularly happy devotion. We extend to his family our deepest sympathy in the sorrow which has c€ine to them by his death. We assure them that the kinclly mernory of a just and merciful judge, a loyal friend and neighbor, an upright and honored citizen, and a sincere lover of humanity will long abide with us. Of Judge Abbott it may be truly said: RECORD OF TOWN MEETINGS 169 " Those who knew him best, laved Mm most." In token of our veneration and respect for the memory of Samuel Phillips Abbott, it is ordered that the foregoing memorial be spread upon the records of the Town of Watertown, and that a copy be sent to the family of judge Abbott.

Resolutions for the Day. P. Sarsfaeld Cunniff. Star Spangled Banner," 230 WATERT{]WN TOWN IMPORT ADDRESS OF THE PEOPLE OF THE TOWN OF WATERTOWN, T\IASS. on NATIONAL DEFENSE DAY SEPTEMBER 12, 1924, The spirit of this occasion is summed in these words: " What constitutes a. State? Not high-raised battlements pr labored mound, Thick wall, or moated gate; Not cities proud, with spires and turrets crcvvned, Not bays and broad arm ports, Where, laughing at the storm, rich na,pies ride; Not starred and spangled courts, Where low-browed baseness wafts perftunc to pride— No! MEN — high-minded I' IEN I Men, who their duties know, But I mow their lights, And kno v ing, dare: maintain, These constitute a State." 1n the 294th year of our settlement as a Town— the 150th of mr Independence as a ration on this day designated by the President of the United States ----- Calvin Coolidge, Massachusetts' honored son—we, citizens of Watertown, are assembled in public meeting to renew our allegiance to the government of which we are a part, to salute the glorious flag we love, to recledicate ourselves to the everlasting principles of which it is symbolic, to make public avowal of our readiness and high resolve always to cherish it, to guard it, to preserve it, — with our lives if need be—its glistening stars undimmed, its ,gleaming strifes unstained. The ground on which we tread is hallowed, mere the hardy pioneers-- our forbears—men and women of heroic mould— cast their lot in the wilderness, sowed the fruitful seeds of a great civilization, endured privation, inisfortune and hardship, faced danger and death without flinching, First in America Waterto%vn freemen proclaimed the principle: " Taxation Without Representation is Tyranny," and the progeny of that solemn pronouncement was the earliest repre-gentative government can this continent. Here American liberty was cradled and defended. 1�-Ien of Watertown, rallying to the corrunon defense, stood with the embattled farmers who shed their blood at Lexington, at Concord and at Bunker Hill. Here was sheltered the Provincial Congress when driven from Boston by Bi-itish troops. Here convener] the first Great and General Court, the first General Assembly of IMassachusetts. Mere Revere lived and served the patriot cause. Here -was printed the first paper currency for the new nation,. Here Tarren and Washington came to counsel With the yeomanry of Massachusetts, who struck the first blow in freedom's holy cause. From the day this Nation Nvas conceived to this very hour, in all the great tasks of nation-building, through the vicissitudes of wars, in the tremendous accomplishments of peace, wherever Massa.chtisetts men have stood in defense or support of State or nation, there, too, amen of Watertown have sturdily and loyally given of their valor, their substance and their strength. Conscious, then, of this great heritage, proud of the esteem in which our beloved Republic is held by the great masses of every land, Mindful of the daggers any responsibilities that beset exalted place and power, Are pause, at the behest of our Presic ent, to talcs reckoning; of our position, to visualize our obligations to ourselves and to posterity, to tape counsel with our conscience, to measure and marshal our resources, to ;gather and gird our strength—net for conquest, not for self-glo ifica.tion, pelf or power—lout for the preservation. of • the liberties and blessings we prize, for the spread of amity. and concord among all the elements of our diverse citizenship, for the advancement of peace, prosperity and gpad-will am€)ng all the races of men. To your call, then, Mr. President, Watertown answers, Ready "-----ready, at your bidding, to maintain and, enforce respect for and obedience to lawfully constituted authority, to resist and prevent unjust aggression, to frown upon and 232 WATERTOWN 'SOWN REPORT condemn every practice or influence that inflames racial or religious passion or prejudice and sen es only to divide and disintegrate our Nation; every one of us, each in his own sphere of activity and usefulness, cuing the days appointed tasks zealously, courageously and honorably, that from this great cc-ordination and co-operation of senice, strength, power and wisdom may emerge a yet more wonderful United States of ' A nerica,`favored, happy, beloved land. Here then Nve stand -- Mr, President, today and every clay — one in heart, in hope, in 'Patriotic purpose —a Nation indi,k isible. " Empire unsceptred!

Again Nve %Nish to impress upon the taxpayers the fact that the burdeii is made by the appropriations, and not by the Assessors. When the Toiim Meeting is required to raise large sums of money to meet theexpenses of the various departments a large tax rate is unavoidahle. The question of valuation has been raised this year by the State Tax Commissioner. He feels that; the valuation of the Town is rather l-Dw, and he is pressing us for a higher -,raluation, which would increase our State and County assessment. We feel however, that. the Town is paying its fair proportion upon the present general values. The assessment upon automobiles is one-of the most trouble- some matters which we have before us, the taxpayer seeming not to realize the special benefits derived by the use of high class, expensively built roads which the towns ai3d cities of the State furnish, for which we must pay. The laws governing the taxation of automobiles will probably heu changed this year so that an owner who does net have an automobile on April 1, but does own cn+e can or between A13ri1 1 and November 1, rill be rccluiretl to pay a. proportionate part of the tax. We wish to impress again upon all, the importance of filing on or before* May 15 a•Bill return of perstmal property, Ths� return is rcquired of all, and no person har a right to assume that he or she: has nothing taxable; this is for the .Assessors to decide, and we will assure all that with a. full and fair return befom its, it %xill be dune fairly, equitably, and justly, sa-%ing froth the taxpayer and the Asses rs a large 475 476 WATERTt7WN TOWN REPORT amount of trouble and annoyance. Following this report will r be found a very carefully considered farm with instructions for filling out returns, which will be helpful in making rctunis. We are asking the Town for an apprupriation of SMO, 00 for the use and expenses of the Board of Assessors for the corning year. This sure is made after very care U- considcratl.an of the necds of the department, and the reg6rcrnents of the statute which must be relict whether we have the appropriation or not. For the year 1924, the Board used practically all the appro- priation, not asking for an additional one. This was done after very careful thought of the necessities, and not one dollar was masted or spent unnecessarily, which left the department and the affairs of the town in very much better shape than they would have- been if the appropriation at the annual meeting had been reduced. Trusting this spun ii ill be granted, aq we feel sure that our estimate has been made on a very conservative basis. Respectfully submitted, FREDE RIC E. CRITCHETT, WILLIAA-1 BELL, ED ARD F. WRIGHT, Board of AssessDrs. Instructions in the Matter of Local Tay Returns .April 1, 1925. Please read careft>zly before filling out the return. BlEmks may be obtained at the Assessor's' Offices and the Local Bardcs. On application they will be sent by nail, They may 1 filed at any time between April 1 and May 15 inclusive. To avoid mistakes they should, be made before a member of the Board of Assessors whenever it is possible to do so. The advice of the Asses rs is especially needed in arriving at a correct valuation. The Law states that "They„ (the Assessors) "shall reoeive a- true, except as to valuation,the list brought in," unless the person mal£in, the return refuses to answer necessary PX-FORT OF ASSESSORS 477 inquiries.

In the report of the Trustees prepared a year act there were two outstanding things brought fomrard and emphasized"for special attention. One of these was the problem of post-war hoodlumism; the other was the need of increased accuunmoda- tions for the work in the East Branch. The former of there subjects has been treated at some length in the report of the Librarian refined to above, and it will be noted that2for the immediate present that problem is well in hand' the latter, however, the question of needed roorn for our work in the'Last Branch, is now more than, ever present with us. This question we bare now placed fomxally before the "Town. At the request of the Chairman of this Board, acting for the Beard as a whole, are article was included in the 'warrant for the special Town Meeting held rni December 22 last .asking that a committee be appointed to consider the question of a site and building for a branch library in Lust Watertown. This request was granted, and we Dope that this may prove to be the first step toward a ineeting of our needs in that section of the Town. There is one important matter in this connection which, perhaps, clues not need to await the report of this committee, and which we are hoping may have early consideration and may result in a decis cn in ow favor. This Matter is the return to the cities and towns of the State of the " surplus funds collected to provide suitable recognition of those residents of Massachusetts who served in the army and navy of the United States during the war with Germany." These surplus Binds amount to S2,OGO,000, and an act has been passed by the Legislatum providing for the return of this money, apportionment to be made " on or after November 20, 1924." Such azmot iits as are returned, however, must be held 4 BOARD OF TRUSTEES � as a special fund to be appropriated only for the purpose of paying indebtedness or for such purposes for which the city or town may borrow money as specified in sections 7 and 8 of Chapter 44 of the Gonera.l Laws." This permits the use of this money " for acquiring land or constructing buildings or other structures, including the cost of original equipment, as inenlog-ls to soldiezrs, sailors and marines." Certainly there can be no more fitting men-Lorial than a librar- y bdilding dedicated to these men, nor can this surphis be spent in a more appropriate way. The money cannot be used for looks, but it may be spent or held for a building, or a site. Watertow n's share in the return of this surplus will b S1 X32.S3. What better use: can be made of it than. by voting that it be applied, within the limitation of the law, to a site for the East Branch? Our work is continually handicapped in that district by lack: of room; there is no part of the Town growing more rabidly, acid there is no park; of it where better Nvork can be done, if we are given right conditions. Since we shall make a request this year fear an advance of a little over a thousand dollars for our salary budget, it is fitting that this report should explain this to some extent.. The Public Library is a part, and a very important part, of the educational system of the Town; moreover it is not working ilidependently, but is cooperating to a very great degree with the individual schools of the Town. railways, however, the remuneration of the library workers leas been materially below that of the teacher of even the lower grades. Now, throughout the country public library work is con-ling into its own; it has become a highly specialized profession, and it is becoming impassible for us to obtain and ]scald capable assistants, m-less we are willing to pay more nearly 'what,is paid by schools for what may perhaps seem to be less arduous work and for work, that most certainly requires fewer working hours. Watertown, compared with other places of similar population, has always held its vino; we must continue to do so, or put up with a very different quality of service. In all the history of the Town, so far as we know, there has never been made an effort to put the salaries of the Librarian {7 WATERTOWN PUBLIC LIBRA.RYr and of the assistants upon a scientific basis. Now, however, with the help of the Town, we are going to do just this. NVe have established an arbitrary maximum of salwyF, for the present at least, for the Librarian, for those assistants who have had a special training for executive positions, 'and for those assistants who are without such training; we propose, if we may be permitWd to do so, beginning with this year, to increase our salaries by a stated surn, not large, each year, -,u:itil the maximum, which„ by the way„ has been set for the present at approximately the 1923 salaries for women teachers is the junior l-iigh schools for the trained class, aad the 1923 salaries for such teachers in the elementary schools for the untrained class. To accomplish this, we are only asking this year for ail advance ill our salary budget of a little over a thousand dollars. There are many matters of Mterest that might be included in this report, to show our Town how well we stand when compared with other tourns, in the amount of work- that Ave are accomplishing. Suffice it to say, however, that our circula- tion is now about six boobs per capita., a.s against approx matcly seven and one-half in Brookline, four and one-half in Somerville, five and three-quarters in Waltham, and nearly ten in Newton. For the cost of running the Library, which the American Library Association sets reasonably low at one dollar per capita, we are at present receiving only 8.722, while Brookline gives $1.46, Somerville, J.67; Waltham, 5.957, and Newton, $1.33.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARUN Gentlemen. I Bove the honor of presenting to you the fifty- seventh report of the library, coveru-ig the year 1924. Fast year in the face of the counter attractions of radio, motion pictures, the automobile and innumerable lending libraries, our circulation incased almost 2 per cent. We predicted that none of these attractions would displace the public library and our predictions have been fulfiller) this year by an increase of 14.2 per cent, the circulation for the year being 16 ,538. This increase may be partly accounted for in the growth of the flown and partly by the slight increase in the amount available for the purchase of books. The circula- tion is very strongly affected by the supply of new books. The graph shown as Appendix A shows more clearly than words the growth in circulation in the last ten years. In that time, there has been an increase of 141.2 per cent and a gain of 31.5 per cent in the last five gears. Based on the latest estimate of 27,000 for the Town's population the circulation has averaged 6 books per capita, at a cast of 12 cents a beak. Dive books per capita is the amount: a library of our size is expected to circulate and the cost is the lowest of any of the surrounding cities. The request for the appointinent of a committee to investi- gate the library conditions at the Bast end of the Town and to report on the advisability of purchasing a lot and erecting thereon a branch library of our own is a step I have looked forward to for some time. The circulation at the East Branch was 67,799, an increase of 18.9 per cent over last year. The circulation of the library in 1914, three years before the opening of the Branch, was ordy 10,000 more. We now have two of the staff on duty at the Branch and the work goes on as well as it can in such cramped quarters and with such Limited shelving for books, At present we can only have approximately 2,300 books there. These we change at frequent intervals. We have been having regular deliveries of hooks to the Branch three tithes a week but we may have to arrange for daily deliveries. 10 LIBRAMAN'S REPORT 11 The library has ,675 registered borrowers. It is therefore apparent that 75 per cent of the residents of the Town are not using the library's resources, either on account of too great distance from a library enter or from not having the library and its resources brought to their attention. This is particularly noticeable in the ease of the residents of the section of the Town along Belmont Street. These people enter and leave the Town on a thoroughfare which naturally leads to Belmont rather than to Watertown. As there are no stores on the Watortown .side of Belmont Strect we have no place in which to have a deposit station. If we secure a new Branch building I feel sure that we will serve this community better, as a building of cur own will be more easily noted than a store in a black. One of the problems which confronts us this coming year is the matter of library publicity—the reaching of groups of prospective readers. Two thousand three hundred seventy-seven books and 2,869 pictures have been sent to the schools. ,All of the grade schools have been visited by the children's librarians. Seven eighth grade and ten ninth grade classes have come to the library from the Jririior Nigh Schools for instruction in the use of the library. The co6peration with the schools, especially in respect to these classes, has been gratifying. Each year the classes shoiv more interest in the work and the reports from the teachers have been very encouraging. This work has no connection with the school department but is offered to them until such time as they have school librarians to take over this work. It makes, however, a real connection Width the school work and gives the young people an introductioa to the library which we lope will be fruitful in the years to come. IMany of the children received State certificates for having read the required number of books on the State reading lists. Twenty-two children received the honor certificates given for reading twenty-five books. These children were taken on a trip to the State l`Iouse and after visiting the most interesting spots, from the Hall of Flags to the Dome, their certificates were presented to them in the State Library. One of the big topics of the day is Adult Education. Not only the United States w-id Canada, but England, Denmark 12 WATERTOWN PUBLIC LIBRARY and other countries are taldng up the problem. The Ar nerican Library Association has appointed a Coma-fission to stttdy the adult education movement and the work of libraries for adults. A paragraph from the first bulletin issued by this Commission states the case as follows: "; What is Adult Education? It may mean the teaching of reading to illiterates, To some., it means the Americanization of the foreign--barn; to others, it signifies vocational training. But Adult Education goes far beyond these. It is leased on a recognition of the fact that education is a life-long process, and that the. uuiversity graduate, as well as the mail of little schooling, is in need of further training and inontal growth; than the training secured in school and college is necessarily limited to fundamentals and that the real development of the individual lies in the independent effort of later years." We, in common with most libraries, have tried to Flo some- thing along all these lines. We can do more but what we can accomplish -v;U depend largely- upon the building up of our supply of ]cooks and our ability to arouse,the interest of the adults and of older boys and girls out of school in thoughtful reading. Each year the problem of making a choice from the mass of current fiction, much of it glowingly advertised but mediocre, has become more difficult. It is hard for the public to realize why we cannot buy everything and yet we are open to criticism from the same public if they find on our shelves a book which offends their taste, They do not understand the di iculties of stretching a linnited boolc appropriation or of making a selection of books. This year a group of librarians from libraries around Boston hove met once a week to review new fiction. This work is helpful to the co6perating libraries and the results of these discussions are filed at the Library Commission to be of use to small libraries. It has resulted in fewer books being sent out that must be .reft=aed and it gives the staff an idea of the gooks re-viewed and the rating of the different titles. Last year we had considerable trouble itrith the discipline in the cluldren's room. Wo made tip our mind to conquer the disturbing element. To this eud we had a police [officer stationed in the building at different times for a period of three weeks. LIERARIAN'5 REPORT 13 These officers were paid from our salary appropriation. The library staff rounded up some of the ringleaders and the police visited their homes. The trouble soon quieted down but in the summer we made preparations to cope with the situation if it arose again ni the fall, but only on a few occasions has its use been necessary. At last the galls and ceiling of the delivery, reading and xefemncc rooms have received a fresh coat of paint. Various grades of the same tint were used, bringing the r001115 into a harmonious unit, The door of the stack roo-n Nvas refinished and various odd retouching jots N ere done. This year we should paint the Pratt Deference Room and lay linoleum. in Hun ewell Ball. New copper should be placed about the chimney to prevent leaks and some repointing is needed oil the stone work, New chairs are: needed and some of the tables and desks should be refinished. I hope that it will be possible for us to have ail exhibition case for the delivery roan. The need of more money for boobs, periodicals and binding we have already discussed. The fact that these three elements of library expenditure show no tendency to go down but have a slight upward curve, shows that the expansion in circulation and the gro-".th of the use of the library must be met by additional funds. It is now our custom to omit the list of donors of looks and periodicals from our report. Acknowledgment is sent when the gifts are received. This year we received one hundred ninety--eight volumes. Mr. Charles F. I-lason gave us a number of these, among them the M rnorial history of Boston and the Narrative and Critical History of America. When we have more adequate book space at the Bast Branch these duplicates will be placed there. To all these who have added to the library's collection of books and papers we owe our thanks, . also to those who have loaned us books to fill the demands that we were not able to supply. The library is again the meeting place for the large Current Events class of the Woman}s Club and other organizations have used the library as a meeting place. For the first time I am able to record that the staff has remained uiunhariged throughout the year. I am glad of this 14 '4 ATERT{]WN PUBLIC LIBRARY opportunity to commend the work and the spirit of my assistants and to thank you, the Trustees, for your bind consideration on all occasions.

PER. 0,%v 'REPORT OF THE WATER DEPARTMENT In revie acing the eark accomplished by this Departipent during the past year, the GwTm~iissionexs duly recognize the loyalty and interest of the eutirc force under our general direc- tion. 'i,"e last by death the Superintendent, David S. I*undlett, April 14, who had occupied that position continuously since the aTorks were taken over by the To= in 1897, a: valuable man in the capacity he occupied and one who gave his best ability* and devotion to the position he so well filled. It was fortunate that he had trained his son, Walter E. Rundlctt, (his 'assistant) in all the details and work of the Department. The Comndssioners, recognizing the ability of the scan of his father, a&-anced him tv the position of Superintendent, Which office he has filled to the entire satisfaction:of the Commissioners. The building of many new dwelling houses necessitating the construction of new streets and the conscquent extension of water mains for house services, hydrants for lure protection, etc,, has made} the ycar one of continuous activity for the Department. During the year there have been installed 282 services, TnanyT of them for two-family houses. That item alone will give some idea as to the growth of the Town and the necessary- extension of the waiter system. "There has been a change its the personnel of the Metropolitan District Commission and we learn that the new chairman is favorably disposed to sce that Watertmvn should have the high is service pressure, covering the section on and around Locks Dill, in the not distant future. This, when installed, Avill b a, great relief to those whose dwellings are located on these high elevations in Town, who arc now and have for some period of time been just complainants of the service as now rendered. The Metropolitan Commissioners 'have installed a connec- tion exiting the Belmont 20-inch main running over the hill can Spring Street, with mix 10-inch parallel line to be opened and used for fire purposes only. This would be of great value in 3 case of ccnfiagration, as it would materially reduce the fire hazard. For correct I-Lud general information regarding the activities and accomplishments in this Dopa.rtment ill frill, the reader is referred to the report of the which follows.

This report includes birth and death certificates, infant mortality, causes cif death, and other tables showing the activities of the Department. General Health Scarlet fever in a mild forni, that appeared in 1923, con- tinued through the first months of the present year. Diphtheria showed a, marked decrease in the ntia-lher of cases reported. This undoubtedly is an indication of the benefits to be derived from the so-called Schick Vest which would in tiime eliminate diphtheria if every- child could be given the advantage of the treatment. Parents should appreciate its value and permit their children to have the test. Daring the year, practically all of the children who were lniniunized against diplit;heria' in 1923, were re- chicked and such of those who were positive, were again immunized. The coming year a large number of cliildrCn should receive the benefits of this wonderful discovery. Other contagions diseases, especially measles, showed a marked falling off in the iiurnbers reported. The total number of contagious diseases reported for the year 1924 was eighty- eight (88) less than the number reported in 1.923. This ntunber could and would be reduced very materially, providing the parents exercised a proper care in observing quarantine. "!"he death rate for the year shows a i arked decline loth in the mumber of deaths. of Watertown residents dying in Town and also the number dying Out of '.faun. The death rate including all deaths of 'Watertown residents, regardless of where death occurred, is but eight plus,per thousand. The infant mortality as well as still births also shots a marked decline. Tuberculosis, however, as predicted, because of consequences of war, showed an increase. The cases of pulmonary tuber- culosis reported for the year were thirty-two as compared to REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH 5 twenty reported in 1924. The number of deaths from this cause was five in 1923 as against nine in 1924. Eight deaths occurred from lobar pneumonia in 1924 as compared to ten deaths in 1923. But one death from diphtheria was recorded in 1924 as compared with two deaths in 1923. Deaths from other reportable diseases remain about the same. With the add'Ltional nurse, the Department is able to keep a closer watch on communicable diseases, and much good should result therefrom. The decrease irk infant mortality is undoubtedly due to the effort made in Child Welfare Work. Many, perhaps, do not realize the rapid gro-vAh of the Town and its consequent additional demands upon this Depart- ment. Conservative estimates indicate an increased population of not less than 9,004 durijag the last six years with its corre- sponding increase in school population. Notwithstanding this rapid growth, the number of contagious 6SM--.sc:s reported do not sliow a corresponding; incrca:se except in those years when unusual outbreaks such as influenaa in 1918 and 1919, and scarlet fever in a mild form in 1923 and 1924. Neither hav,e the expenditures for contagious diseases increased except thosc due to an' increase in hospital charges, the first of which Nvas Dui incre of 7 per weep for the care of contagious diseases, and beginning December 1, 1924, the State increased its charge from 84 to 8 1 .10 per week,for the Town's tubercular patients in State Sanatoriums. Just what this increase means, will he seen by comparing the following figures. From January 1, to November 30, 1921, inclusive, the Town provided 332Y2 weeps of care for Town patients in these tuber- cular hospitals, the charge for which was 84 per wcck or a total change of 31,330.43 If but an equal munber of weeks' care is provided in 1925, at $16.19 per week, the total cast would be 85,353.30. The Department has also becn required to assume all of the expeuse for the care of any report able disease, whereas up to within a short time, a part of this expense was borne by the Poor Department. All of these additional charges over which 6 'WATERTOWN TO'L'L'N REPORT the 1=Depaitinent has no control, add very materially to the cost of this work. Schaal Dentist On April 1, 1924, Dr. Thcodore E. LaFayette was appointed School Dentist. This appointment was made possible by an appropriation'of $1,500 made at the March Town UZeeting to pay the salary of the Scheel Dentist. The Town owns none of the egaipment used in the work, and assumes no other expense of the clinic. All other expmses including the salary of an assistant, cost of material, printing, and other incidental expenses, are borne by organizations who ptu chased the equipment, established, and have maintained the clinic for several years. A very sinall part of this expense money is secured by these organizations through a fcc of twenty-five cents, charged and collected by tliern, for the material used in the work. The need of such a clinic is best shown by the following, taken from the mpoit of the School Nurses for 1923. Number of pupils treated goo Number of cases requiring treatment 706 Number of severe cases requiring treatment 6 The continuance of this clinic is of the utmost iMportance to the health and education of the children, especially those who, because of conditions ravel° which they have no control, could not otherwise receive the frill benefits of the Town's fine schools. All children who are unable to pay a free are furnished wi.tbout cost. l mist that notbmi g will he permitted to interfere with this humana work. A report of the School Dentist will show tlae ajnount of work accomplished in 10 . Ridgelawn, Cemetery The special appropriation of $2,000 permitted the continua- Lion of the development work in Ridgelawn'Cemetery. During the year, with the aid of the Town steam shovel, REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH 7 the use of which was made possible through the permission of the Board of Selectmen, the old cmbank entfacing the entrance was lowered to grade. Approximately ten thousand (10,000) yards of filling were removed arnd used to fill in a large part of a low area, in the cemetery, thus bringing to grade and making available for burial purposes, gttite a tract of land that was, unless so killed, unsuitable for cernetery use. This work should be continuedd from year to year until completed. An annual appropriation of $2,000 should be made for this purposo, Comfort Station With the rapid growth of the Tmvii, the need of at least one 1)ublic comfort station is becoming more pronounced.

During the year 1924,the beginning of the long contemplated work of the developing of a considerable area adjacent to the new entrance at Ridgelawn Cemetery has been commenced, and carried to a considerable degree of completion. This has been a job of noteworthy importance, and the result is that one of the prettiest slopes of the cemetery will soon be available for the sale of lots, and render the approach to the grounds much more beautiful. Should it be the desire of the citizens to acquire new land for the cemetery by taking; territory adjoining, our needs for cemetery purposes, will be provided for, and we shall possess a most beautiful location, with ample space for many years to come. I have asked for a larger amount for contingencies for the year of 1925, as the wall at Common Street Cemetery needs to be repointed with cement, and repairs to the fence an Copeland Street should be made.. At Arlington Street Cemetery a fence is greatly needed to protect and beautify that ancient burial place. A committee was appointed several years ago to loop into the matter of an iron fence and to make a report upon same, but as the great war name on very scan after and paces were so prohibitive, no action was taken.. Several who are interested in that cemetery have urged me to bring the matter to the attention of the Board with the hope that in the new future we ma,= secure some action that will enable us to bluld a fence. Aly help has been able and efficient during the year, and f trust that the work done has been satisfactory to the citizens and to the Board. Respectfully submitted, FRANK R.

Twenty--five years ago many colleges-were socking candidates for admission. At that time, the conditions for admission to college were much easier to fulfill than they are at the present clay, because the demand did not equal the supply. Now, however, the demand of students for a college education far exceeds the ability of the collegcs to supply-it. In recent gears, in fact since the end of the Great War, the colleges of the country have insisted on only the hest students. One college president in ray hearing said, *' The colleges want only the lest." That means that the average, or slightly below average, young man or woman is more or less excluded from college. This seems unfortunate, for must people are classed as average, and it is the grain of average people who serve their community most. Mr. Whitchill in the report of the superintendent has given more facts on this matter. Some high schools are requiring a.five-year course in prepara- tion for college. Many people recommend, a private prepara- tory school after high school for several reasons, chief of which is the close supervision of the student at all times. The student is not free to go and came as he chooses. At some schools he is even super%ised duringleis study period, particularly if his work. is .not up to the. standard. The majority of these schools of New England are situated in small towns or villagcs somewhat isolated from larger cities and with fearer outside attractions — or shall we say distractions? The days are Flocked out and every hour has its own task for action. Fights are out at 10 p.m. in mast of these schools every night. Rules are enforced and failure to keep them results in expulsion. Same will .say, W.y should I spend money and also add a year of preparation. WATERTO 2N TOWN REPORT to my child's life '„ I do not feel that it is at all necessary if we, as parents, will guide our children so that they will do their work efficiently and not have ton many side attractions during these years wbioh should he devoted to education. I am sure our teachers arc able and willing to teach. Our high school, however, is not run solely for the fitting of cur youth for college. A much larger percentage: will not go to college than the percentage that 3 U. We hear very little about our general courses or our 'business cc rses. Maybe " noa news is good news." Let us (tope so. Athletics seem to some to be the " be all and the end all of everything. athletics are a very helpful part of the curriculum if properly conducted. The main function of our schools how- ever is education, and I feel we should laud the scholastic leader more and the athletic leader less. We should put more time into making the thin, hollow-chested„ weak boys strong„ rather than put the bulk of our tirne on the so-called athletes, for the latter will be physically strong enough to fight life's battles, while the former may perish by the wayside. Last of all, let us all be boosters. Let us investigate when the boy comes home complaining of his treatment at school. Let us hear his side of the stoy patiently, then let us try to see the teacher's viewpoint. Then, if we feel our boy is not getting a fair slow, let us go to the principal of the school or to the teacher. Ccaperation will be very helpful. Our high school is rated in. Class A by the States Department of Education. Perhaps there are some weak spats in the system. Let us ,get shoulder to shoulder and try to fortify these weak spots, rather than quit and do nothing. Respectfully submitted„ CHARLES 0. CHASE, M. D, SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To 11w Sclwol CornndM6: I herewith submit my seventeenth annual report as Superia- tendent of Schools of Watertown. This report is the eighty- seventh of printed reports of the School Committee of Water- town.. School Orga atioa The completion of our New 'Senior High School building -k%,ill mark a. distinct step in the progress of our schools and the establishment of the 6-3-3 or Junior High School plan. rn September, 1925, we shall be able to house all the East Junior Nigh pupils in the present ffigh School building. This will give us two distinct Junior High buildings and a new central High School building large enough it is hoped for years to come. Growth Owing to the geographical location of our town, it is needless to say that it has been growing rapidly dnd will continue to .grow for some time to come. As a result of this growth we have four classes on part time at the New Coolidge School besides a class seated in the hall. At the Hosmer we are six rooms short which gives us twelve classes on part time. The Hosmer congestion will be partly relieved when the New High School is completed, but conditions in the Coolidge will remain in a congested condition. The Building Program The Town of Watertown has responded generously to its need of schools and has completed six schools since 1913. I think it is safe to say that no town. is ]Metropolitan Boston has so many modern and well equipped schools as has the Town of Watertown. Yet as the 'Town grows, spa the building program must go on; so that today it seems that another ten rooms should be built to the New Coolidge School and more accoramo 7 8 WATER'F OWN TOWN REPORT dations provided in the North and West lands of the town as our new West Junior High School,so recently built, and the Marshall Spring School are full to their capacity. Mr. Whitchill, the High School Master, reports as follows: " The Senior High School opened in September with an enrollment of four hundred and ninety-three, an increase of practically twezit -fig=e per cent over that of the previous year. This increase was clue in part to an unusually large ninth grade, in part to the rapid g a %,th of the Town as evidenced by the large nuxtber of pupils entering Watertvvm schools for the first time, and in part, as I believe, to the prospect of added opportunities for some form of industrial education in the new building. To pro%side for this increase too teachers were added to the faculty. In the Departments of Drawing and DomesticScience, Mrs. Randlett and Mrs. Singh,,ton, as well as the teachers in the Physical 'Training Department, are gi%ring a part of their time to the pupils of the ninth grade housed in the Nigh School Building. "In I11ay, Illiss Harrison, one of the instructors in English. was appointed Dean of Girls. In this capacity, as -,yell as in that of advisor to the editorial board of the school paper, she is giving generously of her time and is malting her influence felt vent' decidedly. We feel that the appointment has been fully justified and that she should be relieved still further from classroom instruction in order that she may devote more of her time to this service. Nlr. John G. Macdonald, after four yes as coach in Malden, returlied in September to Watertown as Director of Physical Training in the High School. His work as coach needs no comment. " Twenty-two members of the two upper classes took one or more of the College Bntrauce Board Examinations last June, the largest number at any one time in the history of the school. Eighty per cent of the examinations for which 'these pupils were reco tu-vended were passed. Besides these, a lumber of examinations were passed by those who were not recommended, showing that the standard set by the schaal is net below that set by the Examination Board, In this connection, it should be emphatically stated that not every pupil who enters SUPERIBT' BNDEXT'S PXI PORT the High School can fit forcollege in the three years of regular course. Sorne are slower than others; some should not attempt a eDllege career at all. The sla -wer ones should be willing to add a year to their preparatory course, taping the time that is given in mane of the prig€ate schools. But those who are of better than average ability and are willing to devote their tin-iae to their school duties to the exclusion of all but a limited amount of social diversion, will find no difficulty iu preparing for college, and in gaining admission by examination or eertificiate ftxma the High School in the regular course. `° The musical interests of the school are worthy of note. A class of about twenty pupils studying Appreciation of Music has been formed and is being conducted by Miss Bisbee. The orchestra under her direction now numbers abut fifty pieces. A girls" glee club has been started With Xliss Jacobs, one of the new members of the faculty, as director. " Through the generosity of the Tjnitarian Club two prizes were:awarded at the june graduation, one for work in Mechanical Drawing, and one for excellence in the studies of the Household Arts course. These are in addition to the varivus trophies previously offered by various organizations and individuals, and are another evidence of the interest shown by our citizens in the work of the school. The general spirit of the school is good and constantly improving. From many of the parents we have received tnost hearty and effective coQperation for which we are exceedingly grateful. �Th.e factilty has been uniformly harmonious and loyal. To you and to the School Committee, I wish to express my thanks for your unfailing support." Some Facts About the High. School. Pupils in High Scliool—Membership Dece mbar 1, 1924 Boys Girls .

The activities are as follows- 1.. Eye and ear examinations of all children by class mom teacher. 2. Examination of all childreTi by school physicians and nurses. 3. Follow up service to promote the correction of defects found by examination. 4. Education by nurses, physical directors, teachers and parents in regard to goad health habits. 6. Physical and, recreational exercises and games. f. Class roorn instruction for all pupils. The class roogn teacher soon after the €peninl of school in September gives each child an eye and ear examination as provid- ed by State law and records the results on the child's physical record card. Later the School Physician, assisted by the nurses, examine each child in-regard to appearance, mucous membrane, nutrition; posture, scalp, :skin, teeth, throat, nose, glands, heart, lungs, and nervous condition and records the results on a card. On the same card the nurse also records the weight and Height of the children and what their normal. Freight should be according to the Wood scale. The above examinations furnish the basis for further health work. Notices of all defects are sent to the parents, and fellow up work by the Nurse is-maintained through the year. The parents are urged to talce action and remedy as many defects as passible. Closely connected with our.health work and really considered- a part of it, is our physical and recreational work For several years work has been carried on tinder experienced and trained directors. Excellent, results have been accomplished. Two of our directors resigned at the close of the school year. Miss Grace Mi nahon, who started the Nvork in the grades resigned to be married, and Mr. Harold F. Drew resigned and accepted a position at Beene, N. H. Miss Martha Roberts, a graduate of the Boston. School of Physical Education and a SUPERINMbIDENT°a REPORT ]+ teacher in one of the State Normal Schools; and Mr. Jahn G. Macdonald of Malden, formerly of Watertown, were elected to fill vacancies.

The largest reimbursement is for teachers' salaries. The amount is based upon their training and experience as follows: Two hundred dollars for each teacher w-ho is a, graduate of a normal school or college and has taught at lean: two years; one hundred fifty dollars for each teacher who has had one year of normal training and has taught at least three years; one hundred dollars for each of the other teachers employed. Watertown received in 1924 on account of: Teachers' Salaries S20,476 66 Americanization 1,747 93 Trade and Continuation Schools 3,615 42 State Wards 766 86 Smith-Hughes Fund 100 13 S32 ry0 B 9 Americanization The education of the inuni rant is a task to be carried can at public expense, not prunarily for the Safe of the uru-nib alit, but as a necessary step to make American Democracy secure. It is now possible in a rneasstire, to evaluate what Arnericaniza- tion, through our schools, has accomplished as a result of the organized work of the past three years. SUPERINTBI'MENT"S REPORT 17 e have passed through the experimental stage and as a result of the experience gained, not dilly because of ou.r own problem, but also because of what has been accomplished in other states, the foreign b€ m resident of Watertown has come to the realization of twc existing facts. First: That the public school department stands not only ready, but willing, to assist in every way each adult immigrant resident of 14Tatertown that he may become an American citizen, thereby having the bcnor of being a part ruler of his own city as well as of the greatest republic of the earth. Second: That in return nothing more is expected than that the man or woman who is thus aided accepts �Nnth it his or her share of the responsibility for its proper direction and control. Our Director -%irrites in part as follows: " Watertown has just completed its fourth year in Adult Alien Education. This is one of its most important programs of educational work. The instruction is accomplished by classes to teach the foreign born to spear, read and write the English language, and to train them in the fundamentals of our history and government, to the end that they may become American citizens. Classes have been organized in the evening schools, in the factories, and in the homes. Where are at the present tithe, some fourteen classes in operation — five in the Senior High School— three in the Nest Junior High School'--three factory classes, and three mothers' classes which are held in the home. The new immigration law i�ith its rigid quota regulation does not give us such a large influx of non-English speaking people, but it dues give us an opportunity to take care of those al- ready ill our midst who need our help. More mothers are being reached and given instruction in English which is founded upon and directly correlated with household activities. They are being taught hygiene and the advantages of the clinic. Already many of the foreign women, through the influence of the teachers, have taken their children to our Watertown clinic. 'Watertown has a large foreign population and there is great XS NeATERTOWN TOT'N REPORT need of Adult Alien Education. This work is fundamental not only to Watertown, but to the whole United States. Watertown needs to grasp every opportunity to provide adequate nos for the carrying out of this important work and furthering the ideals of real America. The Continuation School The Watertown Continuation School was established in accordance with the Mate law in September 1920. The functions this school has intended to perform for the group of minors designated by the law are: 1. To give a so called general improvement education. 2. To furnish through shop experiences and class room exercises pre.-vocational training, which is in effect vocational guidance. 3. To give some definite training for industry. General improvement instruction for pupils in our schools has had important effects. Instruction in civics, personal hygiene, regular school subjects have been provided in a less formal way than in the regular school. Shop work and subjects related to shop work have furnished much valuable experience in fields closely related to vocations. The�Continuation School has had a good influence can the attendance of children in the regular schools and on the tendency of those out of employment to return to school. Formerly, many children between fourteen and sixteen were neither in school nor at work. Some of their were hunting jobs, but the majority were adrift on the streets or idle at hone. The size of the class groups gives a good chance for individual work in classes. Pupils come to a teacher for one type: of work a for two hours and then take up a different type of work (under the same or different teacher) for another two hours. Typical program for a four hour period pupil. First hour. Shop mathematics, hygiene and spelling. Second hour: English and civics. Third hour: Shop. Fourth hour; Shop.
