SELECTMEN'S REPORT The Selectmen here,"pith respectfully submit their annual report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1926. The many tr}ing and complex questions of local govern- nient have been islet this year in a most han-nonious manner, and all matters connected with our official duties have been decided after serious consideration, and we hope for the best interest of the Town. The construction of Common Street was finished at an approciahle saving over the estimated cost, and much credit is due our Superintendent of Streets, Pierce P. Condon, for the very efficient manner in wl-ich the widening and sub-grading was handled, as it eras a very difficult problem in street con- struction. Tlie abutters received careful attention, and we feel that this artery of travel will be appreciated by the resi- dential and travelling public. ML. Auburn Street was built of bitulithie construction at a cost considerably less per square foot than Common or Main Streets. The work was completed in record time with eery little inconvenience to the public. The constriction of Main Street was a problem regarding traffic conditions, but was met in a very efficient inann+er by the co6peration of our police chief, John F. Milmore. The construction of this thoroughfare was originally intended to continue to the police station, and might have been possible if the Selectmen had not, after careful study, decided that this artery should be constructed of granite block pavement on a concrete base. The construction of this roadway necessitated the installation of additional lights on the northerly side of Main Street. The Delta on Main, Galen and Mt. A-Lib zrn Streets was also considered and additional lights installed. The necessity of traffic signals receivod an exhaustive study by the Selectmen and after visiting neighboring cities and towns, the problem was taken up with the traffic department of the 21 22 -WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT General Electric Company, and plans worked out, for the proper handling; of traffic at these points. Estimates were furnished for three different units, controlled from a central point and it is heaped that an appropriation will provide the incans of taking care of a dangerous traffic problem and parlictilarl�y foot traffic. The continuation of the constriction of THain 'Street should receive consideration this year as the roadbed is in a deplorable condition. It is heaped that- wino arrangement will be nnade 1)y" which. the Middlesex and Boston Street Railway will consider the imperative need of a reduced fare within the Town limits, as the progress of West Watertown district depends to a lame degree on the cosh; of transportation to Boston. After a number of hearings, the Selectmen considered the petition of the residents of hToAh Watertown for a. bus lime, and after giving this matter carofal consideration, granted a perinit to the L'aston Elevated Compam- to operate busses. These bosses are now ita operation and tnk care of that section of Watertown which has been without any means of transpor- tation, and nFall be of ,great benefit not only to the residents of Torth Watertown, but also beneficial to merchants and general lousiness in Watertown Square. The re-laying of cast iron water mains in hilt. Auburn Strut to replace the present and obsolete cernent-lined mains should be carried out on a geDeral plait of the rebuildixag of the highway at the same time. It is hoped that this work will be continued from year to year to-itil the work of rebuilding Mt. Auburn Street will be completed. averley Av-enue ii ill be entirely built tip this spring, and this important thoroughfare should be constructed this year. The large drain was completed in December and it has not made the roadbed any safer for travel, Bemis Street from Wav rlcy Avenue to Lexington Street, an important link from lVest Watertown to the West junior High School, should be Built this year. The construction of Pleasant Street front the lValthain Line to the Aetna X1111s has been postponed from y7eCar to year, and has been a source of expense due to the fact that it has become necessary to scarify and temporarily rebuild the roadbed so that tzEPoWr Op SLLEGTMEN 23 it would be possible to make it passable. The Pkliddlesex and Boston Street Railway have discontinued their car service and are now operating busses. They bare on two occasions asked to be relieved from gi,,,ring any service owing to the condition of the roadbed. This thoroughfare is used for heavy traffic through Waltham, and we are also pit to great expense as our gravel pit, garbage station and paper dumps are located in this section. It is heaped, that an appropriation will be available to rebuild this important thoroughfare tl-is year. Soirie attention should be given Orebar'd Street to AV-averley Avenue, While it may not be ad,,-isilble to build it this Near, owing to the number of vacant lets, some prey ision should be made to put it in a safe way for the large amount of traffic now using this street. The building of the lark nurnber of betterment streets petitioned for, is of considerable npor-tancc and their disposi- ton «*ill depend entirely on the aniount of building still to be done. Petition was received for the construction of Piermont Street under the Betterment Act, and to view of the fact that no sewerage or drainage is required, this constniction can be met at this time, and as the full cost is to be berme by the abutters we deem it advisable to construct Piennent Street this year. The question of fees for permits in the different departments must sooner or later be established and put in operation its in other cities and towns, thereby- making them self-supportin,g to at least the extent of pro-tiding enough help to properly inspect the work now receiving only partial attention. The building department should have an additional inspector as many flagrant violations of the building laws are carried out daily and cannot be successfully stepped unless more frequent inspections are made. This department is entrusted with the means of protecting the ultimate home owner from the un- scrupulous fly-by-night builder, whose only thought is how- he can, cut the corners and dispose of his holdings. We sincerely hope that this flatter uill be given the most serious considera- tion as-we feel that the requirement of a fee will take care of any additional help required. 24 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT "a wish to thank the heads of the various departments, the elective officers and the Town employees for their cooperation the past year, ARTHUR H.

REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE To the Uiti-ens of TVatertawu Nothiiag could be clearer to the Finance Committee upon receiving a budget this year of over $2,400,000 than the very evident fact that the deniands of rnunielpa.l government are reaching such a point that it ells for the very serious con- sideration of every Citizen. e have arrived at the crass-roads. Either Municipalities must do away with some of their activities or we must accept a constantly increasing tax-hate. The sky is the limit in this direction, and hard comnion seise nitist prevail if we are to travel in the ether. Our annual increase in VELIua.tioti is sufficient for only a moderate increase in expenses without increasing the tax burden. I wish that I possessed the ability to drive homy to a. large class of our citizens, particularly these who are town-meeting members, this fact that,every resident of Watertown, whether owning taxable property or not, directly or indirectly shares its expense. Non-owners of taxable property are affected by every tax, but unfortunately they feel that they pay nothing to the cost of municipal expenditures. 'I`he owners of taxable property, protecting themselves, shift a large portion, aid even more than their entire share of their direct taxes, to the renter or consumer, in the form of increased prices of coninioditles and rants. This indirect taxa- tion has failed to produce a demand upon this class of our citi- zenship for a more economical administration of public expendi- tures, which might have been the case had these taxes been le,kried directly-. Our verb., rapid ,grow-th in public expenditures can be traded in a lane extent to the general feeling that high taxes do not cause an increase in the burden of non-owners of taxable prop- erty. If it were possible to enact a general law that for every fifty-cent increase in the tax rate one dollar should be added to 40 FINANCE CONIT ITTEE REPORT 41 the poll tax bill, I am of the opinion that municipal expct,dituxes in the next ten years would decrease as rapidly as t.licy have increased in the last decade:. Both owners and non-owners of taxable property should be equally anxious to hi-nit the demands for public improveenents,— to do their utmost to elect honest and capable officials, — to see that, when elected, these officials cam, on the affairs of the municipality in an efficient and business-like way, and if not, — to inake their influence felt at the polls. It is not the form of guve=nent that counts, —it is the interest shown in the prevailing form by its citizens and a desire to see that proper men and Nvemen are selected for their administrative offices, ---endorsing only those wbo have proper qualifications for the office. Electing a "goad fellow," without other qualifications, is an absolutely sure way of increa.si ag the tax rate, Only those men should be elected who are actively engaged in large unclertakings, men who have had experience, and those to whom neither the lzcuors nor theemoluments of office mean anything, but who are Mlling to make the needful sacrifice of time to serve in public office, It is not sufficient that, we have faith in our American institutions, and love for them, vve must be of service. The ever growing expense of education leads nee to hope that at some not ton distant date the National Education Asso- ciation will hold a convention at which will be discussed not only Education, but the cost: of education. I believe that the financial and achiumstrative aspect of our public schools are of--ital concern to the public interests. Where are certain definite fundamental principles underlying the suc- cessful administrations of a school system which are as fixed and inim-Litable as the economic principles which govern and control coast sheets; price lists and profits in any commercial or indus- trial enterprise, and any failure to observe and to adhere to these principles in educational administration wilt be just as disaastTous to the public treasury as the violation of sound econ- oinics and lousiness principles would be to the business affairs conducted for monetary rewards. Appropriations involving the greatest 'good for the greatest r 42 WATER'I'C14 N TOWN Rr--PORT number are, without qucst.ion, sound finance, and with but a limited amount of money to spend, this fact must always govern our expenditures. I believe that consideration should be given to the condition of certain pieces of oui'fire-fighting apparatus and serious study given to the necessity of certain replacements. I believe also that a sun cy should be made of the fire and police signal sy%steni, which seems very antiquated and of a teniparary nature. 'Tether or not it is the tune to house this system in a fire-proof building mvay from the danger of fire should also be considered. These matters while worthy of action by the Town hfleetiug have not been officially brought to the attention of the Finance Ccmmittee, so that we can iiiake no ether rectrnraenela.tions than these. e are recommending this year a larger appropriation for Vic maintenance of highways thasi is usual, as we feel that it is absolutely essential that what highways we have should be properly cared for, to prevent, at no distant day., a staggering appropriation for constructioll, After weeks of serious consideration the Finance Conu-nittee are subiznitting their report. As this Committee is merely an advisory body, we can only entreat its serious study and con- sideration, and may I inipre:ss upon our fellow-citizens this fact: 'either the elected officials nor the Finance Committee set the tax rate for the I'rawn of TATatertown. This responsibility must be placed wlicre it belongs----upon the Town-meeting menribers. In nialcing this report I call to your attention the fact that I am completing the last year of my appointment to the F'inance Committee, and I must take this opportunity of commending you gentlenicii who have served with me during the l-ist three years, and have given so generously of your time and c%periellce in the common interest of the welfare of Watertown. 1rlany hours which you have spent in this work-, l nlmown and, unrec- ognised by the great majority cif y7otlr fellow-townsmen, but further typifies my, ideal of all goad citizens, — service. May I extend to you, in these few words the only reward which you can ever hope to receive— "You have clone the Sta.te,some service." TIC*1—NCL COMIdITTEE, REPORT 43 Nor can I allow this occasion to pass vntbout extending to you nay deepest appreciation of the unfaltering courtesy and Idndness which you have always shown me during many trying hours in the past three years.

Auburn Street 41:,044 4 $139,610 71 Balance 5,559 29 $145,17 0 00 Common Street After the lines had been relocated by the County Conarnis- sioner, the rebu ldii7g of Common Street was staitt+ed at the Orchard Street end.. This work necessitated the removal of many trees, several stone Avalls, :and a great deal of rotten ledge. New catch basins had to be installed, drains laid, and it was also required tc relocate the telephone and Edison poles, wires and 98 REPORT OF HIGHWAY DEPAIMMENT 99 cables. All vacant lots, moreover, had to be connected ii ith sever, gas and water. The contract for the work of rebuilding the street was a-warded. to Simpson Brothers. It called for the laying; of a seven inch reinforced, concrete road, The street was curbed the entire length. Granolithic sidemalks were laid, each abutter paying his share of the cost of construction. The work Nvas finished just at the close of the present season. Main Street The work of widening and reconstructing Main Street was completed in the late fall. The Elevated Railway Company first removed their tracks. The surface drainage was then takencare of. Gas, seiver and water pipes, as well as Edison light wires, were all put underground. The Finance Comn-ission approved the recommendation of the Board of Selectmen to put down a surface of granite blacks on a concrete base and the Town rated the necessary appro- priation. The contract was awarded to 'Sinnpson Brothers, As the highway is one of the most traveled roads from Boston to the westeni part of the state, the work of rebuilding it should be continued curing the naming year at least as far as the Main Street bridge. Mt. Auburn Street Mt. Auburn Street has been rebuilt from the Xlt. Auburn Bridge to Dexter Avenue. First of all, it was rlece8sary to lay a surface drain from Arlington Street, to the bridge. Lateral drains were also installed iil Prentiss, Keeparr, Brinimer, St. IVIary's and Francis Streets. The contract for the resurfacing was awarded to Simpson Brothers Corporation. The old surface of the street Nvas carefully removed and made use of in the refinishing of -Grave, Prentiss, Keenan, Brininicr and St. Nlary's Streets. Great care was. also taken in replacing the sub-grade over the main drain and cross ditches. The contractcr was required to excavate at least to the 100 WATERT(JWN TOWN REPORT depth of a foot, and replace the saine vL ith the balance of the material that had been taken from the tap. The use of the steam shovel was prohibited in order to keep the good ina.teria:l separated frorn that which was to be con- signed to the dump.

To the Honorable Board of electaaim: Confloonen.: The following report of work done by this department during the year ending December 31, 1926 is rc- spectfullyr submitted. Report The past year has seen many changes in this department, Mr. Forrest J. Maynard resigning as Toni Engineer on the first day of August;, and Mr. George N. WatEion, Instrument- man on the twenty third of October. With the -,Faluable assistance of Mr. )ffilbur F. Learned, Consulting hnginneer, Mr. Thomas V. Dwyer, Instrurnentman, and two Rodnien, Mr. W. S. BT Fault anal Mr. It+obert E. Lee, we have completed all work as planned for the year. Mr. Bryant and Mr. Lee, Rodmen, have been alternating on a five wock schedule, as they are in the last year of college. Since my appointment as Town Engineer on August 1, 1926, the reconstruction of Cni-nnion Street, Watertown Square, and a portion of Mt. Auburn Street have been completed. e have also been unustially busy preparing plans and pro- files, and giving lines and grades can sewers, drains, sidewalks and curbing. There is a great: deal of work to be done in our office in bringing our records up to date, and in kmping t;hcm so, which is not only of great value to this department, but also to those who are seeing information and data. I am, therefore, suggesting a permanent draftsman for this department, who will not only keep our records properly, but who will also be of great value in general off-ice work. Respectfully submitted, OTIS D. ALLEN, Tin Hughwe . 110 RETORT OF TOWN ENGINEER Report on Drainage of "Acton Street District" This district is situated in the westeru part of the flown near the'Walthana boundary line, and extends easterly between Main a-ad Waltham Street following the valley line of the area approximately to Howard Street comprising 1.70 acres, of which about 47Y,2 acres are situated north of Main Street, and about I221�9 acres between Main and AValtham Streets. The natural drainage of this district consists of a brook whose outfall is the Charles River at the foot of Howard Street. It follows approximately the line of -Acton Street from Rosedale Terrace to Rutland Street, wTiere the topography gives evidence that the original channel extended northerlg, crossing the site of Main Street at or near Stuart Street. Topography of Water Shed Before beginning the mathematical study of this district a reconnoissance was made to ascertain its priticipal features, which appear to consist of t ,,o zones of area; that of sloping ground and areas approximately level, comprising 105.71 acres and 64,31 acres respectively- in other words 62 per cent consists of sloping area and 3S per cent of flat; area.. The trend of these slopes is about parallel with the streets which are laid €ut, 7lonnally to the main thoroughfares, and the main valley line or grater channel. Water falling upon the sloping;areas reins off in the direction of least resistance parallel with direction of the streets. Rainfall From records of rainfall covering a. period of twenty years from 1870 to 1809 at Chestnut Hill Resemir it is readily seen that vialcnt rainfalls are of short duration,, while ordinary rain- falls are of long duration. In a district with topography like the district under con- sideration, rain falling -upon the streets will quickly reach the catch basins, and ~eater falling on adjoining areas will reach the catch basins at later periods depending upon topoKraphical conditions. 117hen the rain is of considerable intensity and of sufficient duration for the rain falling upon the remotest part cif 112 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT the district to reach the atitfall during the continuance of the storm, the main drains are then carrying the fill amount of the storm at the same rate that it is falling upon the whole district. As a general rule the rate of rainfall curing excessive storms is irregular, There are usually short periods of time when the storm reaches a maxim= rate; and if the downpour is of suffi- cient duration to admit of a. concentration of the: flow in the storm drain we have a condition that should be provided for by an adequate size of all the dra.vis. Miring the period of the records there were four downpours of considerable intensity, as for instance in 1888 a rainfall lasting 47 nllnute5 with a precipitation of 1.22 inches took place. In August 1892 a downpour of 1.29 inches fell in 32 minutes. In ,duly of 1894 during the tilde of 23 minutes rain fell to the depth of 1.08 inches, a.nd in the month of August 1899 precipi- tation to the depth of 1.58 inches fell in 20 minutes. In order to form a comprehensive grasp of the relative intensity.- of the precipitation during those years of record all the rainfalls have been plotted ',rith reference to cobrd late axes, using the rate per hour of each individual rainfall as ordi- nates in inches, and the duration of each storrn in decimals of an hour on a horizontal scale. A litre is then drawn enveloping the points representing the rainfalls of maximum intensity, which in this case is a curve, and frorn which a formula is calculated, which may he used to ascertain the probable duration of any downpour. In order to ascertain the proper sizes of the drains I have used a ma�irnurn rate of 2-inch precipitation in about 4 minutes. Run Off There are two or three methods used for ascertaining ap- proximately the amount of run off of any drainage district; one method is to consider a ratio of the whale area as being inper- vious and apply this area to the downfall for any desired tifne corresponding to the time required for the storm to become concentrated in the drain at any desired point in the district. Laving determined this time of concentration and the probable rate of downfall corresponding therewith, we combine the RBPORT or, TOWN ENGT;VEER 113 impervious area v6th the rate of dow afall in inches per hour,. which is eanivalent approximately to the cubic feet per second, per acre, we have the number of cubic feet per second to be provided for in its sire of the drain. Another method frequcntly used is a form-la lmo-' n -is Burkli-Ziegler's formula, which was inade to be applied to any kind of topography. The method used in this study of drainage for Acton Street district is knc wii as the rational method. It is used becatise it appears to be the simplest and most logical. All methods have their defects and depend for their proper application on the character of the district under consideration, whether it be urban, suburban or an uncleti�eloped district. Actor Street district is aiot wholly developed; large areas are without streets, and may come under the category of farm land, therefore, for a basis on which to consider the drainage of this district, streets have been drawn can plans resembling the development of that area between Lexington Street, and the W,alth.am hotmdary line on the east mid west, and between AS[ain Street and Highland Avenue on the north and south. Although it may be Inane }ears before this district 'becomes fully developed it appears to the writer that any bans of less development would not be satisfactory for a full report on. drainage. Thu main trunk line of this drainage system will +extend front Rutland :street through Acton Street to Rosedale Terrace, where it will deflect to the nigM on two straight lilies to the outfall. The line of the [train extends through Rutland Street from Waltham Street to lvlain Street there connecting with t.1iQ s stem in 11ain Street, and the streets situated north of Main Street, and with the proposed svgtem its the vicinity of Waltham Strt. The distance from the outfall (Charles River) to Rutland Street is .about three thousand feet depending upon the final location of the outfall. This length ha.s been divided into three parts, each about one thousand feet in len-th; these sections are lettered for convenience of description A, B, C and D; Section D, covers an area lying south of the centre line of Acton Street when extended westerly to the limit of the water W2LTERTOWNT TOWN REPORT shed at this locality, to Waltham Street, and also south 4f Waltham Street to the c:Evidc, Section E lies principally west of Rutland Street between the extension of the center live of Acton Street and Main Street. The section Bong wholly north of .Hain Street is desig- nated N. In each of these sections there are zones of area made up of parts of streets, and sloping a.rva can which its some cases divell- ings are situated, and in other axeas, approximately flat, with streets of the sanne general &Tade, a5 the adjoining land, tc which I have applied differeY-it ratios of run off as follows: Zones ha.vili- steep slopes I h,-Lye considered for streets the ratio to be 60 per cent, and for adjoining slopes 40 per dent. In zones with flat area, streets with the ratio of 30 per cent have been applied and. the adjoining area 20 per cent. In this water shed, the adjoining grounds of dwellings and other structures are not; graded, and drainage follows the direc- tion of least resistance. No attention has been paid to roof areas because all water falling on roofs is shed directly to the grotuzd to follow the trend of the slopes. Having applied to the different sections of area, the proper ratio of ruts ofI we find that a channel in section A should be provided to carry 136.02 cubic feet per second, equivalent. to 4 feet anti 10 inches in diameter. In B a channel should be large enough to carry 12G.14 cubic feet per second, equivalent to 4 feet and 8 inches in diameter. Section C should have a capacity to carry 107.22 cubic feet per second, equivalent to 4 feet 3 inches. Rutland Street brains not only sections C and ', taut section D, and will require a Lhie of pipe extending from Waltham Street to ilIain Street, the pipe connecting faith section NT delivery south and the pipe from altham Street delivering north and both uniting at the manhole at the junctioza of Acton and lZutland Streets. Section D through which Waltham 'Street extends east and west should be of such tide as tca deliver 40.26 cubic feet per second, equivalent to 36 inches hi diameter. Section E is located mostly in the; west side of the northerly part of Rutland Street, and the; channel or pipe should be of REPORT OF TOWN ENGINEER 11� such sine as to have a Capacity of 44..• ll cubic feet per second, equivalent to 4 feet in diameter where layed on flat grades. In view of the fact that we now have a drain in Rutland Street, although smaller than herein recommended for the development on the basis for which this report is ni,-id E, and that Acton Street is the location for the main trunk drain, it is for the consideration of the Hoard of Selectmen whether or not to recommend to the Board of Financcs the building of that part of this trunk drain ,extending from. Rutland Street easterly about 650 feet to the westerly line of John K. Jenseri's land, this season. Before considering the cast of construction of ary part of the trunk line a few suggestions might be in order at this time. It shmild be kept in mind that nearly all of the Acton Street valley extending from Oakland Street to Rutland Street is in its primitive state, except the sewer laid in the site of Acton Street, so-called. 'No construction of Acton Street has been made, and the location of this street is in its original meadow-like condition. In order to obtain the full value of the trunk drain, Acton Strew, at least that part under con- templation of construction should be properly built;, and graded, athenvise all catch basins built would be projecting anywhere from 12 inches to 18 itichus, above general level of the valley. The folloAing estimates of cost are first, for 650 linear feet of trunk drain extendul from the centre linos of Rutland Street to the Boyle-Jensen bcundary line, at which pohit the invert of the drain is six or seven feet below the surface of the ground. From this paint onward the :surface has a declivity for a thou- sand feet in length to where the surface of the ground at the brook and the grade of the open channel meet. In order to provide a course for the flow of water an open channel should be cxcavated. WILBUR F.

To the Honorable Board of Selectinen: The Playground Commission is pleased to report another successful year and respectfully submits the accowit of the Superintendent for the activities of the past year. With the rapid growth of the 'fown, improvements should be made in all of the playgrounds and it wffl be necessary to make immediate provision for a new bathhouse at the bathing beach. For this purpose sufficient appropriations ought to be made to carry on the work successfully. REV. VILLIAM J. DUFFY, PETER J. MONAIIAN,. ALE ANDER D. MacDONALD. T�Vatertown, Mass., December 31, 1929. To the 1-Ialertyxn Playgmund Comjnfss cw. otaemoz: I respectfully submit to your Commission the report of the aterto-wri playgrounds, during the season of 1926. The athletic program was arranged for the purpose of fos- tering group athletics for the greater benefit of the many chil- dren in attendance and the scheduled ganics for the playground championship aroused much enthusiasm at the several play- grounds. The ustial group games and class instructions in hand- work were well received by the children of the various classes. A course in first aid and home hygienic was conducted by the local Health Department nurse under the direction of the American Red Cross, The instructors are to be compllinented for the diligent attendance to their duties throughout the scason. The annual 125 126 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT demonstration was held on Saturday afternoon, August 28, 1926, at Victory Field before a large number of spectators. The program follows: 1.

REPORT OF PLAYGROUND COMMITTEE 127 The Playground Organization was as follows: Instructors: Saltonst_all: Francis Kelly, Edna Lyons, Ahiza Doyle, Parker. Christopher Duffy, Gertrude Coffey. I3osmer: Thomas O'Brien, Jr., Bertha Doyle. Coolidge: Thigh Idaarxur�ll, i'vlargaret Carroll. Bathing Beach: Life wards: Francis Mooney, Edward L. Ryan. Matron: Mrs. Rhoda R. 'Telrnan.. The attendance on all the playgrounds was good, and at the bathing beaeb much more than the capacity afforded by the facilities. The total approximate attendance at the bathing beach was 11,375. The American Red Cress Life Saving Course was given at the bathing beach during the week of August 15, 1926. 1 would like to present to your Commission the situation existing at the Watertown bathing beach. On July 21 and 22 there was an average attendance of one thousand persons per day. Due to the -6giilance and attention of the life guards it was necessary to take but one person from the eater. It can be readily- understood that under the conditions existing, with- out drinl5ing grater or sanitary facilities of any hind, and with- out adequate dressing rooms for the loathers, and such a, large number in attendance there is a serious menace to the health and welfare of the bathers. Recommendations At the Coulidge Playground the activities are carried can without the necessary apparatus and equipment for a suitable playground area in a district where a, suitable playgroutid is a necessity. I reconunend at the Coolidge Playground that the playground aroa be graded and equipped before the opening of the playgrotuid season during the next year. The Hosmer Playground has no drinking water or suitably equipped playground area. The Parker Playground is without sanitary facilities and drinking water. The bathing beach mast be equipped wAh bathhouses, per- manent if possible,before the beach can open for the next season. 128 WATERTOWN TOWN RE-PORT Due to the lack of space and the refusal of the Watertown School Department to grant permission to store the playground equip- ment in the basement of the Grant School, as-has been the ctisy tam during~past gears, it has been necessary to erect a building at the Town bar-i property in wbich to Douse the playground equipmont. The portable bathhouses were used in the erection of this building;because they were so far beyond repair that they %vere no longer useful for bathhouse purposes. I recommend that a permanent bathhouse, with adequate dressing,* and sanitary facilities, be provided at the lathing beach to be ready for occupancy on or before June 1:5, 1927. I further recommend that the rocks in the river bed witffin the bathing area be removed as a safety precaution and that the beach be sanded. I recommend that a temperary► bathing beach be installed at Howard and Pleasant Strects, West Watertown, on the Charles River for the benefit of the children of West Water- town who are unable to travel to the preseM bathing beach coil Charles River Road. As a general recommendation, having in mind the: needs at the Coolidge, Hosme3r and Parker Playgrounds, at the new play-ground to be at the West junior High Schoc)1 and the neces- sity of a new bathhouse at the bathing beach, I recaanmend that a sufficient appropriation be provided for a survey of the recreational needs of the Town of W,atertown. I wish to extend my sincere thanks to all those who assisted and cooperated in carrying an the playground work clurilig; the seascTa. Respectfully submitted, PRANCIS J. McNAMARA, SRperintendnnt. REPORT QP THE PLANNING BOAR FOR YEAR 1926 This is the Erst year under the Zoning Law. No estimate of the number of property owners desiring to change their property classification could be made at the beginning of this year. Them were runnors of many changes which did not materialize. That the law has worked well and has the approval of the majority, is evidenced by the: small number of petitions for changes. The first petition was fr€ rn the awrier of 34 Spring Street to change his lot of 90 x 200 feet from residential to business, so that a large commercial garage could be built, At the hearing, owners of Snore than 50 per cent of the property in the block bounded by Church Street, Summer Street, Spring Street, and railroad land, objected to the change. The Board voted to recommend no change, furthermore deeming it not wise to change the classification of a particular lot, without consider- ing a change of the adjacent land in the sane block, The second was a petition of the. Knights of Columbus Building Association to change the corner of Watertown. Street and Fifth Avenue from a 3C zone, which is residential, to a 2B, - which is business. This Assucia.tion held a perinit for a gas station before the adoption of the Zoning Law, and could have proceeded legally to use it, as later events proved. 'With a fine spirit, they %,,=aived their rights, and proceeded. in the way prescribed by the Zoning Law to change the designation of this parcel of their land. This case slows that the Zoning Law will riot stop progress, as amendments can he made easily, if neces- sary and right. This action of the Knights of Columbus has added strong support to the upholding of the Zoning Law. The citizen holders of the other permits, which were held good under the interpretation,of Article IV, ,Section 2,paragraph 3, of the Zoning Law, that permits issued before the adoption of the Zoning Law were good for a year whether they were issued for new construction or for existing buildings, are also 129 130 t1'?i'IiERTOWN TOWN REPORT to be corm-fended in that they waived their rights to use their peri-nits, with the exception of one out-of-town Owner. He succeeded in pushing through the constnzction of a stare block in a section of high-grade and expensive homes, at the corner of Mt. Auburn Street and Lincoln Street. lit Aubtu-n Street may some day be all business, as some prophesy, but not until there is a la-rger concentration of population adjacent to it, which will be possible only when large apartment houses are built. The Zoning Law restricts these to within one hivadred feet of the street, and much of this laud available under the Zoning Law is still bound by private restrictions for three ,Tears more to single residences. "here is now before the Board a petition to extend the store area. on Main Street. A large-sived colored zoning map has Deli prepared by Eric :ohnson, chaintian of the coiumittee that prepared the Zoning Law, for the use of the Board, which map inay be con- sulted by those interested. Several years ago the Planning Board had surveys made of a large portion of the undeveloped land adjacent to Common Street and Mt. Au1� 1 Street, in order that now streets, as laid out, mightconform to a general and harnnonious plan. These surveys have been largely; followed in the development of the Stearns Estate and the Lovell and Locke faxnis. Watertown is poorly marked for the stranger passing throu,,,,h. Appropriate signs on the main approaches would be good a.dvcrtising. Those passLig through would realise that Watertown is on the map, and this desirable place for homes and business was Watertown. Many f rnis have already found Watertown a. desirable dis- tributing center on account of its central position and guud roads radiating in all directions. This makes it possible, to make deliveries —even to most of Boston — easier, quicker, and with less expense than from dowm town, south, or east Boston centers, clue to the traffic congestion of those centers. Watertown has a large section in the area zoned for business along the railroad, for a large number of free warehouses. These would materially increase the valuation of the Town. The Town has a large pied of land at the junction of North REPORT or PLANNING BOARD 131 Beacon Street and Arsenal Street which could be developed for the parking of fifty or more automobiles. On account of the thirty-minute parking law in the Center, which is now being enforced, there is a demand for parking space where cars may be left for a longer time. This land, if utilized, would be more sightly to look at than its present appearance, and would enhance the looks of our spacious Center, which is developing into a beautiffxl spat. We have a fine asset in the river bctwecn the Galen Street B dge and the North Beacon Street Bridge. Plans aught to he made to develop this into another beauty spot. A, river dotted with bright canoes would make an attractiN:e picture. Other towns would give a goad deal to have our chance to develop eater spans, In the annual report for 1925, refereixce was made in regard to changing the telephone exchange narne from Newton North to Watertewn. Many local organizations have officially favored. this change. With the approval of the Planning Board the v,'hcle question was referred to the Board of Selectmen with wbern the matter now rests for further action, In some ways the Planning Board is a fifth wheel to the; coach. Alanv of the duties that other towns give to their Planning Boards, in Watertown came under the Board of Sur- vey, which was established by a Special Act for the Town of Watertown in 1900, Chapter 272. If some action, could be taken to center the planning activities of the Town not only on the layout of nev, streets, but also of new buildings, which are now lnarndled by special comnrittees, it would be possible to ,work out a more ham;onious whole. This central planning committee could be strengthened for special assigmnents, by adding to its personnel the officials interested in these special projects, with other citizen appointees if desired.

To the Board of Public Welfare. endenien I here��ith submit my report as Agent for the year ending Decembcr 31, 1926. Mothers' Aid The year 1926 opened with twent�y_three resident Mothers` Aid fannies,and one out of town, covering one hundred twenty- five individuals, of whom there are more than one hundred children under fotutem years of age, and three incapacitated fathers. During the year we have added tiro more living out of town, and have closed three cases; one by marriage, one by acquisition of property, and one because the absent bread v6n.ncr returned Lorne. Eight of these mothers are doing part-time work, and seven- teen children are working part or full time. Their increased yearnings Delp to reduce the required aid, and all cases are care- fully watched by flown and State authorities. New cases are now waiting application, and if accepted may bcc=e long and heavy ones. The aid rendered varies from seven-fifty to twenty dollars per week, and is given in cash, rent, fuel, milk and occasional clothing. WThile all must +c+onfon-n to a specified Mate budget each case is considered on its own mQrits. Many of these families Were generously remembcred at the holiday time with baskets or clothing, and for this we are most grateful to the various Drganizations wid individuals thus contributing. It is our endeavor to make this aid constructive rather than more relief, and most of the people- are glad to co6perate with Lis in any line we may suggest. As soon as any of them can dome self-supporting, they are given over to their own resources. 135 136 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT We are l;lad to have kept within our appropriation, and bid you remeni.ber that the Town is reimbursed from one half to one third of the amount expendcd. Outside Aid This department has liven aid to forty-five families having from two to ten children each. Board has been paid to the Mate or other instit-ation for twenty-one children who have no parents to care for than. Eleven aged persons with a little aid have been able to remain in their own homes. Ten cases have had hospital care only, two of which are permanent and will be as long as they live. But one person has been sent to the alms-- house during the year, The entire number receiving the various farms of temporary aid has been three hundred and eight. There have been face, applications from lack of employinuat rather than those caused by accidents, injuries, or sickness to remove the earning.head, and these of course are only tem- porary. A-lost of thcse people have a town settlement, though eighteen have none, while nine have another toiim settlement or are living elsewhere with. a. Tatertown settlement. For this reason the reirnbursement. to this department is far less than that to our Mothers' Aid. These people, too,were inost of them remeniber+ed by various organizations and individuals at Thanksgiving and Christmas time, and many thanks, with appreciation, are clue the t*ariou.s donors. We were able in this department to beep within the appro- priation and yet not allow any needy applicants to suffer want. Soldiers' Relief The demands made upon this departmert are itrcVeasing, and perhaps that is but natural,as the effects of sen-ice rendered are now being felt even more keenly than in the earlier days of return. Family cares are assumed, and a lack of physical ability to meet such hoti-scheld clemands brings a severe financial strain which cannot be met without aid. Some cases of occa- sional aid are becoming; seem7iragly permanent, and nets ones are frequently applying, REPORT OP BOARD OF PUBLIC wELFAR8 137 This aid is rendered in some cases monthly and in others by the week. During the y= there have been fifteen cases con- sidered, which have run practically through the year, while aid has been given to three families who are living away from this town. A military settlement is not easily lost, aid as the hays are scattered widely, we are held responsible wherever they may be located at time of need. Death has removed three of these having this aid for same time, and five new cases have been taken osi during the year. One family has lost settlement by their five years' absence frorra this Town and acquiring settlement elsewhere, and one case of long standing has been dropped because of other aid given. 7n this department we had to ask for a transferred amount of money, but were glad to be able to take it from one of our other dcpartmeiits, and can see no chance for any less for the coming year. Respectfully submitted, ALIE L. PINKHA'-,%,f, Agent. REPORT OF ALMSHOUSE DEPARTMENT To the Honorable Board of Public 11'Nfu;r'e. Gmlienrcra: f respectfully sublailt the following report as beeper of the a.lnishouse for the year ending December 31, I32G. The past t-%?.Fenty years has shown a decided change in the type of individual cared for at the almshouse. Several years ago it was comparatively easy to selcet frog-n the inmates one who was able to perfonu light labor, and to him various tasks were assigned. Time had proved that a small amount of labor allotted to the average imnate was wise administration, and the law backed up this condition. At present we are not getting this type of ininate; three factors have influenced the sitiza.tion: family obligations accepted and fulfillcd, impr-ovcnient in inclustg•ial conditions and mare intelligent placing. National prohibition, too, has affected conditions. Today the indi%;ideal seeping aid at an almshr)use is in e-�--cry sense of the ward usually* a patient demanding hospital Care. The almshouse is becoming a hospital and infirmary for chronics; those suffering from settled, and in most cases incur- able maladies, and because so afflicted, axe not admitted to the average general hospital. Should they be admitted the east of earn would more than double the present cast of caring for them. A11 of our present inmates need constant care and attention; two are confined to their beds practically all of the time; the others are very aged and infirm, being more or less tinder the elector's care, who has carefully, attended to all of their Iv ants. There were nine inmates at the beginjung of the year and eight at the close. The; whole numIxr of inmates has been thirteen, the largest ntunber at one time, eleven, the smallest, eight, the average number, nine. One; itrmate was removed to the McCreight Sanitaritim, one to another place of support, one went to work and two were placed in. case of relatives, About the usual amount of land was tilled; after the house 1 � REPORT OF ALMSH{' tS2 DEPARTMENT 139 was supplied with vegetables the surplus -vas sold. Two new soapstone sinks were placed in the men's and women's bath- roorns and mane other minor repairs were made. The present boiler is thirty.-eight years cold and of obsolete type; a now hailer would pay- for itself in a Seery* fete years in the sa--ping of a large amount of coal. Practically one-half of the present amount of coal which is naw cans-.mien would be all that would be necessary. A new boiler would eliminate a considerable amount of Heaney which is now expended for repairs. I would recommen6 that the almshotise and shed be given two coats of paint., that the necessary repairs be made in connection therewith, and that the stern of 750 be appropriated for the same. I wish to thank Watertown Ledge of Elks No. 1513 for the gifts bestowed upon the inmates at Thankst wing, also to thank Watertov�,n Council No. lbo', Knights of Columbus, and Mr. Edward J. Holland for their very generous gifts at Christmas. The a.lmshonse is opera to visitors at all tunes during reason- able hours and I would be pleased to receive visitors at any time.

Report of Committee on School in the North End of the Town This Committee was appointed at a special meeting hold on Deceit}ber 22, 1924. It was also charl;ed with the duty of mporting on an addition to the Coolidge School in the East End. The Committee reported at the Annual Meeting in March, 1925, and money was appropriated at that time for a ten-room addition on the Coolidge Schaal, and five thousand dollars (1.`,5,I 00) for the puns for an elementary school and }tall to be located on the Town Farm on Orchard Street.

A :study of the Town Fami land, an area of about ten acres, was made of the development of such portions as are not used now for tower purposes and unadapted to school uses and in particular to their relation to the present residential building on Both sides. The building is planned for the high portion of the lot slig,htly farther back from Orchard Street than the Almshouse and adjacent to the extension of Lowell Avenue which eventually RECORD or TOWN IN-113ETINGS will run through the town land and connect with the proposed. layout of the balance of the Lovell Farm.y The school will he erected without disturbing the Ahnshott w, the barn, or the old pest house now rented for a number of years as a residence. Eventually for the benefit of the school, the Almshouse will liava to be removed. The land beyond the proposed eN ensiori of Lowell Avemi , if laid out to join with proposed streets on either side may be dil ded into twenty-nine house lags which riaay be sold at a later date. This part of the Town Farm has been rented at a xanminal stun for many Nears for farming purposes. The Committee asks the Town for one hundred ninety-five thousand dollars (J19 ,000) to cover the coast of a twelve-room building and hall exclusive of furnishing, one hundred fifty-five thousand dollars ($155,000) to be borrowed, ten thousand dollars (3.10,OGO) to be assessed for the current year, and thirty • thousand dollars ( 30,000) transferred from the unexpended balance of the Coolidge School addition. The or gntial plan called for a twenty-room building and hall, to be bttilt ten rooms and a ball, followed later by ten additional rooms; but the experience of the Coolidge School and the ingenuity of our architects slam► that a scbool may be built with a }gall and t%v lve rooms followed later by eight rooms for less that. the orif,*itaal plan. The cost of an eight-room addition is estimated at fifty thousand dollars, ( :►0,000) aialtiing the total cast of the twenty- roorn btiil.ding and ball Lwo htmd.red and fifty thousand dollars 09.2.50,000) exclusive of furnishing.

The Committee of seven members appointed by the Town Moderator Fred F. Crm�iord, Esq., May 20, 1925, in accordance with the vote of the Town on the preceding twenty-third day of Mareb, to consider and report on the preservation and protection of the Arlington Street Cemetery, has attended to its dutics and presents its report. e find the Arlington Street Cemetery practically without protection so far as its walls .and fences are concerned. It is frequently used as a lounging place or playground and invites trespass front all directions. Quite recently a large gravestone was broken by a stone thrmim by a boy playing in the grounds. Dr. Bennett I". Davenport of this Town has stated to the Committee that seventy years ago, when he 'Was a boy living in that vicinity, there were many more c,7, avestanes than can be stern there now. No doubt tawny have fallen clown and have entirely disappeared. We ask for your favorable consideration, to prevent further desecration and wanton destruction. It has been stated that there are inure ancient gravesta nes in this cemetery than in the fainotis old cernetery in Plymouth. Not only do many-families in this Town field that their ancestors are buried here, but descendaats are found in all parts of the country. Former President Garfield, as well as our own President Coolidge trace their dircet descent from ancestors interred in this historical and sacred spot. Happily the gravestones of bath of these fanailies are in a good state of preservation. Manifestly the first step to be taken in the preservation and , protection of this ceuictery is to build about it a stone and iron fence that shall be, substantial in eba,ra.cter, in keeping with its purptase, ;protective and dignified. We, therefcre, recommend that a faced stone wall with split granite cap stone, approximately three feet high, be built about the Arlington Street Cen ietery on the Alit. Auburn. and Arlington Street sides. That an iron fence four feet high surmount this granite wall and that an oniamental iron gate; RECO" Or, TOWN MEETINGS 167 supplant the present entrance on Arlington Strcet. That an industrial or some other type of iron fencing be built on the ether two sides abutting on private property, and that a double row of evergrcen trees be planted along the line of this rear fence to serve as a sereen to tl-ie fence and an ornamental back,gromid to the cemetery as seen fram the street. All to be substantially in accordance with the plans and specifications drawn by Wilfred A. Dorris, member of the Committee and which accompany and are made a part of this report. In addition to the protection as abo-ve +outli-ncd we plan to restore and preserve some of the old gravestones and montuments now in a neglected and damaged condition. The cast of these improvements =ill be seven thousand five hundred dollars ($7,5DO) as nearly as the Committee can estimate„ without competitive bids, and we 11nnnanimously recora- mend that the Town appropriate that amount for this purpose.

To the Honorable Board of Selecirnen. TVatcrto7zT, Mass. Gunn.emen I submit herewith my report as Town Counsel for the year pending December 31, 1926. During the year six claflns against the Town were settled without court action.. Two were land damage cases, three were defective sidewalk uases, for personal injuries and once defective way case for damage to an automobile. There have been eight additional claims made which are pending but on -which rio suits have been brought. One is a claun for damage clue to surface ti�rater in which I advised that the Torn was not liable, and three- cases of damage to auto- mobiles because of alleged defective ways, two similar cases involving personal injuries as well as damage to automobiles and two cases for personal injuries alone,due to alleged defective Nays. Two suits have been brought, one snow and ice case and one sidewalk case, and these cases.are pending. In one of these the Torn is probably not liable on the merits and in the other the notice was late. The, Cross Street. }wilding line case was decided against the Town by the full bench. on February 27, 1926, and the petition for certiorari which was brought to test the same question was subsequently disposed of by agreement iN ithout costs. Four cases mentioned in my 1925 report are pending. Nr action taken. A verdict was rendered against the Town in the Zieman land damage case by the jury on December 13th. I regard the ver- dict as a fair one. The contention of the Town as to the proper construction of the zoning by-law as to old pennits was upheld by the full beach on October 28. 320 REPORT OF TOWN COUNSEL 321 The claim of a right of stay over the Town house lot as appurtenant to the old �Claflin drug store property rill prob- ably be beard in the land cotu-t in February, Two suits brought by the Town for tares and one for rent rcailted in judgment for the Tom— one judgi-neat is satisfied and the ether two e.�;ecutions are in the hands of the sheriff. Eight petitions for the ass went of dmnages for the West Watertown Playground are pending and these eases must be either settled or tried during the coining year. One other peti- tion for land damages on the parcel at the corner of Mt_ Auburn an(I Arling-ton Streets is pending, and this case will probably be disposed of within the next two months. There were ten cases in -k%rhich the Tawas -was summoned as trustee. These were settled before the retuni day where possi file, and in those eases that were entered appearances and answers have been filed. i appreciate very much the tu�forna support which f have received from the Selectmen during the past year.

While other cities and towns 328 'WATERTO'4 N TOWN REPORT have reported an ir.crease in the number of arrests, it is of interest to note that the arrests because of crime were,, in 1926, lower than either of the two previous years, Only 1,099 persons were arrested in 1926, this being a reduction of 336 over the previous year and 128 less than, 1924, A reduction of ah-nost forty per cent has been made in number of arrests because of violation of liquor lams, An increased nwnber of cringes of the mere serious nature bas occurred during the year, this being especially true in cases of assault i-it,h intent to kill, and robbery, In the two cases of robbery occurring; in the 'Town during the year, the guilty parties were apprehended and found guilty by the cortrts, One was given a terra in State Prison and the other received a sentence to the House of Correction. The eight persons charged With assault %i ith intent to mill have beian arrested, severat are now serving sentences, and the ethers are on the court lists for trial. A considerable reduction has been made in the value of property stolen, and the ratio of property recovered has been increased, Liquor Laws 'The unusual situation with regard to liquor violations during the past twelve months is iverthy of ziotice, Through the active coe)peratiwi of the office is and the various civic organizations interested in the enforcement of the liquor laws, '"ratertown has earned a reputation for its strict observance of the various laws designed to eliminate the liquor nuisance. On1-.%- thirty-four arrests because of these violations were made during the year, this being a reduction of twelve over the preNious helve months. WI-Wile the number of arrests because of violation of the liquor laws has decreased, a slight increase in number of cases of drtinkenness is noted. Traffic The reports of the various State and Federal organizations interested in the elirpination of traffic accidents are unanimous in reporting; a constantly increasing nu nhcr of automobile injuries. REPORT OF THE C141EF OF POLICE 329 With the additional patrolmen on traffic assignment, a material reduction in accidents has been obtained. In 1925 there were 38.2 accidents reported, while during the past year there were but 327, this heal ' a reduction of 55, despite the increased number of cars on the streets. The experience with regard to traffic violations further indicates that more care is being exercised by the automobile driver, and this, in turn, I feel certain, is the restilt of the rigid enforcement of traffic control. Conduct of Officers The niumbers of the Department have .continued to serve the best interests of the Tow a in their faithful pei-fornlance of duty. Conclusion I desire to thank- the Honorable Board of Selectmen, the justices and Clerks of the various Courts, the officers of the Department, and the mane others, for their assistance in the work of this office during the year. The cabperation-of the Town Physician, in his prompt and efficient handling of accident and illness cases, has been of considerable help to the Department in its work. Respectfully submitted, JOHN F. MILNIORE, Cidef of Ponce. REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT To the I-Ionorablc Board of Selestinen. Gentlemen: I herewith submit the follw ding report for the Fire Department for the year ending December 31, 1926. The membership of the Department consists of thirty-five (35) classed as follaws: One (1) permanent chief; two (2) per- manent captains, two (2) permanent lieutenants, one (1) call captain; one (1) call lieutenant, one (1) mechanician, twenty- seven (27) pertilanent ladder and basemen, Alanns and Fires A t.r(�mcudous increase in alarms and lasses was shmirn this year. The Department responded to a. total of 373 alarms for various causes; 222 of which were still alarms and 151 were bell a arms. This shows a total increase of 72 alarms over 1925. This, no doubt, indicates that: the increase in building and population has bad its effect on this Department. The largest individual loss was S'55,000.00. T1 e net unin- sured leans was 1,016.00. At twelve fires assistance was rendered by neighboring departments, aid being rendered at different tunes by Belmont, Waltham, Newton, Cambridge and Boston. All fires were confined to the place of origin. The Department has given all the tune possible to inspection work but carelessness continues and has been the cause of at least: ninety per cent of all of our fires. As in past years considerable confusion has been caused through the telephone serVice which is no doubt due to the fact that most of our calls come throtiah the same exchange as the Newton Department calls. 330 REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT `halves Lasses 111STfrafi1ce Paid Buildings$1,302,532 00 867,287 25 $1,173,156 00 $67,087 25 Contents 1,095,252 00 49,383 38 920,069 00 48,568 38 Totals $2,397,7S4 90$116,670 63 $2,102,225 00$115,655 63 Record of Alarms and Losses for the Fast Fifteen Years A fain ns I-Osses 1912 140 8 9,t366 00 1913 128 21,871 00 1914 112 25,133 00 1915 154 21,534 00 191E 139 24,753 00 1917 1:31 46,181 00 1918 203 26,136 00 1919 1M 40,735 00 1920 140 20,9&3 00 1021 214 89,757 00 1922 245 16,036 00 192.3 284 18,.3.30 00 1024 308 104,507 00 1925 301. 20,349 00 192E 37:3 116,670 63 In each year where the loss exceeded $25,000 a factor' hire occurred. On July 1 the new ladder truck was placed in sen ce and has proven very satisfactory*. N,To provision was made to overhaul the old thick and ive still depend can one ladder truck. I earnestly hope that an appropriatim of 2,500 will be granted this year to place the old truck in first-class condition. With the necessary repairs this truck should give at leash eight years store srr�.7ce and would strengthen the Department considerably. With our hill districts being built tip with goad substantial honies more pumping units must be proNrided. Low- pressure 332 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT an these hills makes it absolutely essential that we provide pumping units if we expect to be successful in combating fires at these locations. Probably more depreciation is shown in motor fire apparatus than in the ordinary automobile trucks due to the severe strain they are put to. The 500-gmllon pumping unit placed in serice in October, 1917 is showing wear and must be replaced eery- soon. My report of 1925. called attention to the Locomobile placed in service in September, 1912 and this piece is now laving used as a hose carrier usually answering secand Alarms. I urge an appropriation of $12,500 for a 750-gallon pumping unit to replace this machine this coring year. I recommend an appropriation of 81,000 for new hose. No hose has been purchased since 1925. I reconunend an appropriation of 550 for the purchase of a Foam Generator necessitated by the increasing number of oil burners and garages. I recommend that an appropriation sufficient to purchase and install twelve new fire-alarm boxes by the Department of 7,1 ires be granted this year. Boxes are necessary in new developments. The time has come when I feel we must reco niive the growth of the Town and provide for the same in this Department. The I'irc Department has not kept apace with the gro-%th of the Tm -n as it should. It may be of iincrest to you to know that our only improv-ement in twenty-five years was the niotori- zation of the Department and the appointirient of men. We have no more apparatus but have sLixtcen men on duty- at all tirnes, except during vacations or in case of illness. This number of men is not sufficient to roan the apparatus properly consider- ing the number Df alarms we now have. I recommend the appointment of four additional permanent mien :for duty not Later than April 1, 1927. I feel that the time has axrived when we should leave a man are duty at all times to handle subsequent clams. Also we cannot afford to weaken the manual force during vacation periods as no additional inen are provided for this work, In behalf of the Town I urish to thank the neighboring REPORT or FIRE DEPARTMENT 333 departments who so --AUingly came to oiix assistance: during the: past year. The discipline of the Department continues at its usiud high standing. The men have boen called upon to do many hours of extra duty with no recompense.. They continue to respond to alarnis while off duty and show a ;611ingness to cooperate in every way sometimes under most trying circum- stances. I wish to express my thanks and appreciation for their cooperation and excellent service rendered. I desire also to thank all who have in any way assisted the Department in its work of preventing and extin-uishi.nj fires. The assistance rendered by the Police Department, espe- cially in traffic work, during the past year is worthy of commen- dation and I take this opportunity to thank thetas. In behalf of the members of this Department I thank the Selectmen for their encouragement and assistance. For a detailed report of the Department expenses, refer to the Auditor's report. Respectfully submitted, J014N W. O'HEA.RN, Chief of Fire Department. REPORT OIL THE WM DEPARTMENT Wratcrtown, Mass., January 14, 1927. To the Honorable ward of Selectmen. Genflgnzeii: The report of the Inspector of Poles and Wires for the year ending Deceniber 31, 1926, is here° ith submitted. The year was a verb, busy one for the Wire Department. Lines were reconstructed on Common Street, between Orchard Street and Belmont Street. Circular loons cable was run in this section and the old wires taken down. Ten conductor cable was run in Main Street between the Engine House and Ho''ard Street, and three-inch pipe was installed for the branch lines leading from Main Street to cable loxes and side streets. This was done to tape dire of the extra circuits in that section. Fifteen new fire-alarm boxes were installed and si:x of the old type fire-alarm boxes were discontinued. Seven new -police boxes were installed in different sections of the Town. One private fire-alarm box was installed on Chestnut Street. Five new lightning arresters were installed and four tappers were transferred to new locations. Drive fire-alarm boxes -were trans- ferred to new poles and two police boxes were transferred to new poles. The battery elenicilts and acid in the Engine House at Fire Headquarters werc renewed. All fire-alarm poxes, police boxes and crass-arms were painted and all the boxes were frequently tested, Owing to the changes, n ade in the Square it was necessary for the Wire Department to make many changes to all working circtuts. We were obliged to relocate ouT cable boxes and main cable in Beacon Square, We had to run spare Nvires down the -railroad track between the Fire House and Aft. Auburn Street., in order to tape care of the fire-alarm and police circuits -while cutting over cable in Beacon Square. We also lead to change mir battery charging wires at the Fire House front Main Street to Mt. .auburn Street, as we got our charging current from the Boston Elevated Railway C rnpany. 3�I REPORT OF WIRE DLPJUZT.1lLNT 335 The Edison Electric Ilhuninating Company set in new poles in many sections of the T wn, -which necessitated our running new, wires to these poles acid installing new crass-anns onto them. We also reconstructed the lines in Gilbert Street. In order to improve conditions at the traffic post on Mt. Auburn Street, at the junction of School Street, a spotlight was installed. This spotlight has proved very beneficial to traffic and a safeguard to the life of the traffic officer. Interior wiring increased tremendously over all prex�ous years and many more, inspections were made this year than in 1925, with a corresponding increase in the number of pen-nits issued to the Edison Company to turn on current. The %vork of the 'Wire Department has graven so heavy and so inuch detail is acquired in the upkeep of the office work, the Wire Depai t- rnent should have a clerk to devote her entire time to this work alone. If a charge were made for the permits issued and the inspections made, as in manor of the neighboring towns and cities, this part of the Wire Department could he made self- supporting. As it is at present it is :impossible to do the work- as it should be clone and keep the records as they should be inept. Underground -work should be clone this year on 1VTt. Auburn Street between Bailey load and Upland Road.. This would improve our fire-alarm and police signal systems and would enable these important departments to give better senTice to the 'Town. If this underground work should be clone we Gould make proNrisions to have the Belmont fire-alarms signal connected with Fire Headquarters, as well as at Station Two. Teii more of the old fire-alarm boxes should be retired this year and modern boxes installed in their places. This could be done at a cost of one hundred thirty-five dollars ($I3 ) a box, as the Garoewell Company would allow the 'Town fifteen dollars (M) each for the old boxers. The 'I'own has outgrown the present fine-alarm headquarters at the Engizie I-louse. A fireproof bousc should be built and fitted with the proper equipment for the fire-alarm and police signal systems, in order to adequately safeguard life and property, This natter should be given immediate attention by the Town Government. For the past feet years -Y%*e have lead a Municipal Christmas 336 1' ATERTOWN TOWN REPORT tree in Watertown Square. Each year wr, have had to procure a pale to set in the delta to care for the lighting of the tree. permanent post, with switch and cut-out, should be installed in this delta to talk care of the lighting of the delta for all occasions. The street lights of the Ton n received careful attention. The new lights ordered in by the Board of Selectmen were located by nee, so that the streets should be properly lighted and the abutters satisfied. All notifications that street lights were not brlrning properly were given prompt attention. The Edison Electric Illurninating Company was immediately notified and the defects were rectified. I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen for the splendid cooperation they have given nee in the work of the Deparbnent. t this tine I also wish to thank the Gamewell Company, the Edison Electric Illuminating Company and the New England Telegraph and Telephone Company for the assistance they have so freely and gratuitously given me during the year.

Ger alone, The report of the Superintendent of the Moth Department for the year ending December 31., 1926, is herewith submitted. The work of suppressing the gypsy and browntail rnoths was none in the usual manner during the past year. The fall and NNin.- ter work was carefully dace and the tree sprayed when the foli- age came out. We have practically no brownta.il moths, at the present tinne, but there is quite an infestation of gypsy maths. The satin nnoth caused a greiat deal of trouble this past year and the tussock moths have also become very numerous. The only method of suppressing these moths is spraying the foliage. In order to beep the trees in good rendition and not lose the goad results of previous years' xN orl£, the trees should recchre constant attention. If the -work is neglected now it will surely mean a mush greater outlay in the future. I reconiruend for the moth work for the ensuing year an ap- propriation of $2,600, for labor and supplies. Respectfully submitted. :OHN C. FORD,. Superinte- dent of the_11oth Depari stem. 341 REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN I-'atertown, Mass., January 14, 1927. To the Honorable Board of Selectinerg. Gentlemen: The report of the Tree Warden for the year end- ing December 31, 1926 is herev6th submitted. During the past year the work of the department was given careful attention. The trees were pruned wherever required and thetree guards were repaired or replaced,as conditions warranted. A great deal of work was done at the Arlington Street Cemetery, where the trees were in a very bad condition. It was necessary to give the trees on School Street a great deal of attention, as the conditions there were similar to those at the Arlington Street Cemetery. On account of the grade of sidewalks in new developments aL number of trees were taken down, ,and in order to improve traffic conditions on NIt. Aubti i'Street some trees were removed. This work was done on petition of abutters. Trees. on Watertown Street which were killed by gas Wore xernoved at the expense of the Boston Consolidated Gas Company. The Gas Company also replaced these trees. Wherever the Edison ivires came in contact with the trees the attention of the Edison Elcctric Illuminating Company was called to the conditions and they cobpera,ted splendidly with the work of the Tree Warden Department. Spraying -was dune for thecottony scale and other pests, with good results. A number of new trees were set out to replace trees had proven unsatisfactory. A great deal more work is still to be done and an appropria- tion of $3,200 will be necessary to do the -work that should be done this corning season. This amount is to cover the cost of labor. The truck belonging to the Tree Warden :Department is al- most completely-worn out and a new truck should be purchased for the Tree Warden Department. It would practically cost more to run the old truck another year tharn it would to purchase and 342 -REPORT OF TREE WARDEN 343 ran a nevtT machine_ An appropriation of $2,000 will be needed for the maintenance of the department, to include the purchase of a new machine. Respectfully submitted, JOHN C. FORD, Tree TrVaidew. P,EPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS IN'_ZLL'C-rtCn'n, Xlass., January 14, 11327. To f1w Ciliwns of Watertown: The Park Commission respectfully submits its report for the year ending December 31, 1926. During the year 1926 all parks and deltas received intich care and attention. In Saltonstall Park the ground adjacent to the Soldiers' A I ontun ent was covered with new loans and seeded and new sod was set out in many places. The cannon ivere cleaned and painted. Considerable work is needed on the trees iii Salton stall Park anid we hope that it will be made possible,to do this work by an increase in the appropriation for park maintenance in 192-7. Victory Field and the outside field have been in greater de- mand the past year than ever before and our Superintendent of Parks was hard pressed in his efforts to please all and favor none. 'We wish to take this opportunity to pubtIcIly commend Mr. Arthur D. Mosman for the efficient manner ill which lie has dis- charged his duties during the past year. The ever increasinginterest in baseball,football, track sport's, field hock-ev and skating have kept these fields in constant use throughout the entire year, which means that mare money is needed as tulle goes oil,to keep the grounds in proper condition. The flagpole Nvas painted, as was also the backstop on the outside field. The tennis courts at Winthrop Street were resurfaced and put in good coaditiou. The wire fence surrounding the courts eras re- paired, new nets were stretched and now tape put down. Sixty- seven permits were issued for pla�ring privileges on these courts during 1926, and the ivereascd use to which the courts were sub- jected necessitated much more attention and care given to them than they had received heretofore. Howe Park was cleaned up several times, shrubbery 'was prtLncd and old rubbish removecl. We received several complaints 344 TZBPORT OF PARK to3I IISSIONERS 845 releative to the condition of this place, but found it almost impos- sible to beep it clean. Irving Park received a general overhauling. The shrubbery was trimmed, dead wood removed and the sail turned over. Nlew loam was piht on Kuoivles Delta in places whi:re automo- bilists had used it as a short Lot. Two dead trees were removed from this delta. The money especially appropriated for Adams Avenue Delta was expended on loam for the delta, and on seeding and grading . it. The appearance of this reservation was materially improved as a result of this work. Whitney Hill Park was given considerable attention. Old dead wood was removed and the whale park burned over. We are indebted to Chief O'Hea.rn of the Fire Department, whose co(peration made it possible to burn over this lard; the prC>�- imity of the Park to houses iu the neighborhood making this ratlher a hazardous undertaking. With the steady and almost phenomenal increase in the pop- ulation come added responsibilities and, greater demands upon the:many departments of this town. Other departments hay.e, in most iiistances,due to sufficient increase in appropriations,equip- ment, etc., been able to beep pace with this rapid growth, but we of the present Board of Park Commissioners feel that this depart- ment has been sadly, neglected in the inatt.er of funds necessary to carry on the work and meet the ever increasing demands made upan it. It is an accepted fact that outdoor recreation and physi cal education for youth have taken thuxr place alongside of scho- lastics, as being essential to thefuture ivelfareand progress of otxr nation. in many of our colleges and preparatory schc)ols, and every high.schools,each student is obliged to include some fcmn of outdoor sport in his or her scholastic schedule each hear. With this in mind municipalities everywhere are spending large sunis yearly on public plai gromids and recreation centers,.in order to promote and perpetuate active interest in out-of-door sports. Automobiles have made streets unsafe to play in; horses today are being built so clowly to each other as to afford little, if any, yard room in whicla children may play. Hence the urgent need of adequate municipal facilities for these purposes. 346 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT s a relief to the present congestion of our playgrounds we would recce=end that the laiicl at the.Junction of Marion Road and Orchard Street, across from Victory Field, comprising about 264,432 square feet, be turned over to the Park Department, and asufcient appropriation made for the purpose of convcrting said land into a. general recreation center, ha%ring a skating;link, ten- nis courts, one quarter mile fort. race track and a Kiitable place for gi rls to play field hockey and basketba11. This would require an a€Iditimial appropriation of approximately- twenty to twenty- fivo thousand dollars, which ive feel would be retuned to Water- toivn many times over in the physical and inaral betteiment of the cumin -c!ncration, and in the increased prestige it would afford the town. As an aici Lo the financing of this project we would recornmend the sale of HovkTc Dark, which is an eyesore to the town and N{holly= unfit for use as a recreation.park or play- ground,mad which, cles,pite x-igilant watch over it, is continually being used as a public clu np and goat pasture. This coming; year much repairing, replacing and imprm-iing will be necessary in our park system. The benches in Saltonstall Park are beyond further repair and should be replaced. �,Jany ha,re places must be reloamed and seeded. The Soldiers' 'I�Ionu- ment should be sand blasted and necessary repairs to it effected. The wood.ea seats in the grandstand at Victory Meld are net suitable for use another sc sson. The wire fence must be repaired and painted, so as to beep it from being corroded with rust. The past season has ernphasirecl more strongly than ever the urgent need of a public comfort station at this field, and also a well equipped first aid roona. These nceded additiuns, would neces- sita.to an expenditure of seireral thousand dollars, which ive feel is not available for this purpose at present. We increly desire to bring these matters before you at this time for consideration. In closing we ~Dish to emphasize the fact that the Park De- partment is constaotly endeavoring to help make NIVa.tertown a better and Tnore,pleasant place to lixre in. In our efforts to aecom-- plish this task wexnust necessarily enlist the co-operation and sup- port of every-citizen of the town. Rubbish should not be dumped in corners of public parks. Town tea.nns call for and collect this rubbish on appointed days. Waste paper, etc., should not be REPORT OF PARK CONNITISSIONERS .347 thrown around pants or playgrounds. Receptacles are provided for such things, and last, but not Fast,, wanton mutilation or destruction of Town property is punishable, by Tine or impris- onnient, and reflects discredit on the fair name of the Town.

To die Honorable Board of Selednien.. Gewlei;icn: The folloNN�ng report of the Cattle Inspector and Town Veterinarian covers the period fro n April 15, 1926, at whdcli time I assumed office, to December 31, 142 . Weekly inspections have keen made at the Town stables where conditions axe good. There are twenty-sip: horses there whose appearance inclicates that they receive goad care and prompt attention. Eighty-six calls were made to the Town live-stock. For a short period of time there was seine uneasiness D1,-er several cases of alleged rabid dugs. With the efficient aid of the poliec skre investigated all of these cases. Fortunately, only two definite cases of rabies vvcrc found, but it was deemed advisable to quarantine sonic of the other suspected dogs. Our inspection of the cattle, sheep, s,,krine and fowl. within the Town showed no evidence cif contagious diseases and the sanitary conditions where the stock was kept were satisfactory. We are grateful for the courtesy and co6peration of various Town officials and employees. "ours respectfully, F.

This is evident by the increase in valuation from. ' 38,695,847 to a42,669,276 or S3,972,429. This increase is divided as follows: Deal Estate g3,893,6311, Personal Prop- er $78,799. Taxpayers are very fortunate M having; this increase, as there was a large increase in the appropriations of $198,019.7 , to meet the annual budget which was placed on the tax levy. There was an increase of $25,793.50 in the regular State and County taxes. In addition to these, there was a special assess- inent for Watertown's part of the new Arsenal Street Bridge of $67,408.87, which the town meeting members voted to put on the tax levy. An item of this size is usually borrowed and dis- tributed over a period of years, and is not figured in the tax levy for the current year. This aniount was responsible for the increase in the tax rate this year. The prospects for an increase in new factory buildings does not loop so promising for the caring year. The increase in valuation of residential property should slow a natural increase. The Assessors wish to impress upon the minds of the tax- payers, that the tag: rate is established by the town meeting members when they make. appropriatim s, and great care should be exercised by these members in making these appro- priations. The Assessors are publishing this year, whieh has beerk the custom to publish every three years, a list of valuations for the year 1926. This list is as of April 1, 1926. It is not passible to get this hook out until the first of the following year, and as there are so many transfers of property and so many new sub- divisions cooling in, that it seems to be a waste of money to publish this book, when up-to-date information could be secured at any time at the Assessors' office. There seems to he a great misunderstanding in the minds of 484 OL REPORT OF ASSESSORS 485 the taxpayers in regard to the filing of a list of perw al prop- erty. Many, taxpayers are of the understanding that if they do not oivn personal prOperty (principally automobiles) on April first of the current year, that it is not necessary to file a t list or return, but we wish to impress upon you that e%Fern though you do not own anything of value, it is all the more important to file this return. Following this report will be found a form Avi th instructions for filling out returns, which should be very carefully considered. Respectfully subnutt°ed, ED ARD F. WRIGHT, ILLIAl11i DELL, EDWIN L. STONE, Board of Assessors. Instructions in the Matter of Local Tax .Returns April 1, 1927. Please read carefully before felling out the rettim. Blanks may,, be obtained at the Assessors' offices and the focal banks. On application they will be sent by unail. They may be filed at any time behveen 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 ad- ice of the Assessors is especially needed in arriving at a correct valuation. The law. stages that "They" (the Assessors) "shall receive as true, except as to LvInation, the list brought ills' unless the person making the return refuses to answer necessary in- quiries. The duty of fixmg the ;valuation is thus placed on the Assessors. Directions by Page and Item of the Blank Page 1. C Ivc Horne .Address, and in ease of Real Estate, I-louse and Street where located.

The equipment, including shock absorbers, extra tires, robes, and any- thing additional, should be listed under the last item on this (2) page. Item (1) Furniture is a most important item. Its tax- able value is neither its cast nor its auction value. By advice of the best authorities it should be assessed at the aanoUnt that a will- ing seller would be satisfied to receive for it. The: present price of furniture should be taken into accolint. Sentirriental value -need not be considered. Insurance value is a partial guide.' The following inventory is suggested as a practical method of reckoning the total, value: Value of Rtigs and Carpets ...........................

Age and condition are considered in the valuation of plain jewelry. It is important that the above instructions should be ob- served in every case, but especially so if the rcturn is made before a notary public or a justice of the peace.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE WATERTOWN FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY The Trustees of the Watertown Free Public 1.1brary hure- with. submit the report of the Librarian for the year 1926. This Near the report of the.Librarian is particularly complete, l..iNng up in detail the marry activities of the Library, which as the tow-n grows is growing with it; in fact., spa thorough is her treatrnent of the various matters, that there is little left. to sa-v, except in a general moray, of the policies and requirernents of this import.tnt part of the educational and social effoits of the Town governtnent. Having brought our preliminary work for the establishment of our first real branch library almost to an end with the opening of the East Branch in its oxen building, we are now, like the coon clog, who, getting the coon treed„ is riff on anew trail, about to tape up In earnest the question of a branch libran, in the North part of the Town, a section which lias been growing at a sensational rate and w ic:li is already large cough to make a success of anything which we may undertake for its residents. Negotiations are under way for the establishment of such a branch, although they have not yet progressed to the point where anv definite:statement may be made. Very soon,however, the expect to make the first real step fonmrd in that direction- We had anticipated that with the begirming of the new year we would be in a position to open the East Branch building to the public. Its this, however, we have been disappointed; nevertheless, the delay in its opening will be postponed but a short titue, and hi all probability that Branch v-111 be cq)erating as a going concern before this report appears in its printed. form. The contractor has dote his part well, and such delay. as has come has been due in a large memure to the difficulty ill getting some of the interior furnishings, which were made to order according to our own ideas, completed as earls*as we had hoped. In aski-ng for our appropriation for 1927 we naturally request a somewhat increased rtrnount for this year. For the first time. we are obli'ed to maintain a building of considerable sip in 4 } BOARD OF TRUSTEMS 5 the East End, instead of making a mere payment of rent, as we have been doing for several years. We have, however, made our request very modest, we think, too modest, perhaps it will prove, but the are ready to make an experiment during the first year along the most economical lines. It is apparent to any r�rie, however, that same additional funds will be required for the increased opportunity which the .east Branch offers, and that it is entirely reasonable for us to expect some incmase in our appropriation for that reason. Last year in making tip our budget we placed the item of salaries for our janitors in the item of Maintenance, rather than in the itean of Salaries, for not only did that seem to us to be the proper place for the janitors' salaries, but throughout the countrl- the libraries in general ha.ndlc their budgets in that way, and it was our wish to be in step with these other libraries, so that we might bG in a position to make financial comparisons with thein and n ako our reports coincide N�rith theirs. This year we make a sin7ilar° request, for last year the Fizlance Com- mittee for sonic reason did not look at this matter from our pou3t of -6ew k unless there may be some very good reason to the contrary, we hope that Committee will this veer concede this point. Our policy in making slight increases in the salaries of our Staff each year, with the idea in mind that eventually these salaries might become similar to the salaries of women teachers in our schools, an abEsolutcly fair and reasonable policy, it seerns to us, has been taken intoconsideration again in maldtig this year's budget, and perhaps it Haight be in order to say here that only in one instance can any of our assistants expect to reach the ma.xiinum. We,have suffered several losses in our Staff durhig the past year, a number of our assistants leaving us to go to libraries which could afford to pay- them more money, but, clue to the efforts of our Librarian and her wide acqual�ltarice in the library field, their places ha-%Te been admirably filled, so that we have a congenial and competent Staff, smaller in number than it should be, but making up for that by co-operation and team work.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN To 11w Truskes of the lF'atertu�w Free Public Library. GGendenten I have the honor of submitting to you the fifty- ninth report of this libran% All other achievements of the library year seeta-1 insrgnifiicaitt beside the achievement of securing the appropriation for and the erection of the new building to house our Bast Branch. The circulation of the East Branch has grown steadily since its opening in June, 1917.. This year it reached 69,875, an increase of 3,620 over last year. Probably it would have reached a inuch higher figure but ninny of the juvenile pa.taroxis have somewhere acquired the idea that when the new building is opened next month the shelves Nvill lie filled with liew books. and that an entirely new order of things will be in fora:. This idea is lield by some of the older people who do not seesrt to realize that the same orgatilzation will be transferred to the new quarters. There they will find the same staff, the same rules and the same books. They will find, however, accommodations for four times its many books, but these books will be added by degrees; three times the seating capacity with roam to expand as the need grows, and working conditions for th6 staff which contribute to the better handling of the increasing; circulation. The description of the East Branch building I will leave to the Building Committee but for myself I would say that this building seems like a dream come true and I await the verdict, can the building and its appointments, of the citizens w,ho appropriated the -money to build it.. I shall �--a.tch with even more interest the use that they snake €of it for in that lies our justification for the work and money that has gone into its building. The hours of opening; the East Branch have been changed. From January .3 it will be open from 1 to cl p-ni. can cach week- day. After we move to the new building it will be open on Saturday froni 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., but at present there will be 9 4 10 WAT'ER`1`C]Wlti TOWN REPORT tic change in the Saturday morning hotizrs as it would mean that we should have to discontinue our story* hour. `.'his year 3,626 vohu ies were added to the library. Of these 1,967 were for adults and 1,650 were jtiveniles. Of these 835 were replacements. One thousand ninety books ivere rebound. There have been 1,201 volumes lost or discarded, therefore our total gain. is 2,420 and the library now has 57,189 volumes. The percentage of increase in the circulation this year is not as high as in some pre ions years but an increase of 4 per cent, or 7,283 volumes, is worth nientioning when one considers the many things that interfere i�itb the reading habit. The total circulation was 187,584. The increase in adult circulation was 4,022 while the juvenile circulation increased 3,261. The latter figures would have been much Higher but there was a decrease in the circulation of the schoolroom deposits. This is accounted for in our inability to secure accurate records, from some of the classrooms. After ottr new system of records has been in farce longer we hope that this condition will improire. Eight hundred eighty-five books were circulated at our station in the Bemis School and 1,735 at the Lowell School. The latter figure is almost double that of last year. We only have room to put two small cases of books for children in these stations. Two thousand one hundred and fort3F four pictures were circulated. The subject of these stations leads to that of the proposed branch in the north earl of the town. If there was need for one in this locality last year when we discussed the subject and when we were petitioned for a branch by more than two hundred people living; in that district, the need has doubled since that time by the erection of hundreds of new homes and there is every evidence that the building era in that part of the town has only lust begun. I therefore hope that we can establish a branch in that section of the town during the coining year. If the old Lowell School is to he given up by the School Com- mittee I hope Nye can secure that, as I feel that the location is ideal and the building will lend itself to the necessary alterations to make it; a serviceable branch building at a minimum cost. If this building is still to be held by the School Committee 1I recommend flint we ask to be allowed temporary accon7.-no— LI]MARTAN'S REPORT ll dations in a room in this buildiu-Ig or that rented quarters be- secured. This branch can be started as uas the East Branch can a schedule of six aftenioons and three evenings a week and the Hours increased as the use of the branch increases. N111th the appointment of -Miss Stella M. h-Terse, who some years ago was a member of our staff,as the High School librarian, the High Schaal library problern has been solved. While this EbTanr is entirely under the School Departinent our library assisted in getting it under way. The librarian assisted in the bock selection and classificatiGn, and we loaned Miss Wrinn, one of our assistants a certain number of hours a week from February first through June, to assist the organizer and to run the library until Miss Morse came in September. The Public Library still co6perates in every moray with the High School library-. As .Miss Morse gives instruction in the use of a libran, to the hlig-h School pupils we have discontinued our instruction to the ninth grade classes, but the eighth grades continue to come for instruction and it is our intention to tale the sixth gracles ire the spring. The sixth grades in the east Dart of the toum will go to the East Branch. The work in our Children's department has shown a steady increase and the work of sending out the school deposits, which in many- libraries is handled by a special assistant, Deeps our Children's librarian and her assistant very busy. Additional part-tillIC help should be given this depaAment. Y hope also that su nze pro-vision can he made for a regular story-teller, both at the Main Library and at the Ezlst Branch, Pressure of work has caused us to discontinue story-telling at the Main Library as story-telling requires much preparation. We are skill,con- tinuing it at the East Branch can Saturday mornings but if the work- there increases according to our expectations we may have to discontinue it unless a story-teller is engaged. This method of introducing children to the best in literature has stood the test of time and all the larger libraries in this vicinity are giving this advantage to their juvenile patrons. Chrr Girl's Book Club still meets every week. During Children's Bogle Week the children's librarians -�7sited the grade sehools and talked to the children on the best books and the response, from the children was remarkable. Never have 12 'NV:3TERTOWNT TOWN REPORT so marry children"s books gone out in one day as in the days follotvirg these t2.11:s. The Librarian attended the Fiftieth Aiiniversary meeting of the American Library Association held at Atlantic City from October 4-9. "I'his was the largest meeting of the Library .' Association and was attended by more than 2,300 delegates, many corning from other countries. The keynote of this meeting was adult education. Some of the inost interesting phases.of the subject ha-ve been brought out by Dr. Juseph Collins in his article called "Adult Education via Leisure and Libraries" front which f quote the following: "Real education is not that which is gleaned from text-looks and garnered from attending lectures. It is an uidividua.1 process and the preparation of the soil must be that which teaches the inndi-zdual to desire education. The wish to learn is the live qua non of adult education. A rnan may acquire a Nast amount of education and be uneducated, he may hu've spent his tune dreaming with the poets, thrilling With the inm,aortal musicians, communing with Nature, and be more educated than his University brother whose sum of acquired knowledge has not imbued cairn with cu-;iosity and constrcactive- ness, the basis of intellectual life. Education has another func- tion, an important one: to develop sympathy and create open- mindedness." A public library should have on its shelves books to &- disfy those who desire this kind of education and should if possible create an atmosphere i-4,hich would lead people to unconsciously desire it. Dr. Collins praises the series of booklets put out by the.American Library Association under thecaption of°`Reading itkr a Purpose" in which prornineiA writers introduce the reader to the subject in an interesting way and recommend a few hooks to read. Dr. Collins also sags:— "Libraries should put their light on a candlestick. They have kept it too ]tang under a bushel." 'We have been content to wait for things to came to us and we probably do need a little more publicity of the right sort. During the summer of 1923 a survey of the libraries of the United States was made. The work of compiling the statistics required by the Survey Committee seemed all out of proportion LIBRARIAN'S REPORT 13 to any good that might come from it ether than the opportunity to "take stack" of ourselves. The results of this survey are to be publisher] in four volumes, two of Thiele have already been received. `I'he results of the survey are very interesting. µ The libraries are divided into four classes according to the number of volumes that; the libraries contain. Watertown just carve into Glass B which consists of those libraries halving from 50,909 to 100,000 volumes. 'These statistics are based on our figures for 1924 and as we have had some increases ill our .appropriation in the la..-,t two years and a corresponding increase in our circulation, all the figures for 1926 shoe an upward tendency. In the surrey our per capita expenditures were neither among the ten highest of th6 ten lowest of the libraries in our class. The aniount spent by these libraries ranged from 16 cents to -SL52 per capita. Our library's expenditure last year was 86 cents per capita. The American Library Asscciation main- tains that good serVice cannot be rendered on less than $1.00 per capita. Our per capita circulation in 1924 was 6.41, n along us number 10 among 34 libraries in our class. This figure has increase] to 7.3 gooks per capita. 'Thirty-si:% libraries in our Mass B reported an expenditure of from 9.4 to .19 per volunic circulated. Watertoirn's expenditure was, and still is, .12 per volume circidated. Of forty-four libraries in Class B reporting are Money spent for salaries.. WatertovnY hejd a middle place between the figmtres of 33.3 per cent and 62.9 per cent of the appropriation. Although we have had some increase in our salary appropriatiaii 1.11e still occupy the satne position, our salary appropriatinn for 1926 beMg. 553.1 per cent of the total appropriation. t this place I Irish to stress again the fact that janitors and cleaners are considercd under maintenance in all library figures. I have subtrapted the ja-nitDrs' salaries from the salary figures and placed them under maintenance in order to make a just comparison with other librarius, I,t,. t year we made an attempt to have this change made in our budget, but; it did not meet w-1th the approval of the Finance Committee. I still r 14 - 11'ATER'i`rJWN T0415'N REPORT maintain that it would be advisable for nianv reasons for the Town to make; this change. To restune ottr survey figures. The percentage of total expenditures for l noks, periodicals, and binding of the forty-twn libraries in Class B reporting, ranged from 14 per cent to 46.4 per cent. Watertown was one of the lowest ten at 21,8 per scent. An increase in our appropriation since 1924 has brought us up to 2:3.8 per cent, The percentage- for general maintenance put Watertown amorig the ten highest of the 41 libraries with 26.3 per cent. 4s our salary ai-id book approp iaticti has increased our percentage on mainteriance has gone dourn to 23 per cent of the total appropriation. The percentage of fiction in the total circulation varied from 51 to 83 per cent. Watertown's percentage was #o but has gone to G7 in 192G. Mratertown was among the highest three in the percentage of the population that were rel„istered card holders. This survey should prove helpful in other ways as it brings out various methods found to be successful in conducting libraries of all sizes. Perhaps we should feel complimented that other libraries wish to sectire our assistants and we should be glad to see our assistants go to higher and more lucrative positIC)ns, but it is with regret that we lose goad assistants and it certainly has its effect can our service when as Ynany changes comic within d few nionths as came this last year, -Miss Ethel -III. Rix, who had charge of the delivery desk left us flay 1, to become the librarian at North Attleboro, Mass. In jime Miss Alarian Wrinn resigned to accept a position on the staff of one of the branches of the Brooklyn, N. Y., Public Library, and later in the summer Miss Ruth A. Kerr joined the staff of the library of Boston University. The follow ng assistants have been added to fill the vacan- cies: 11liss Charlotte Hasldiis, formerly Assistant Librarian of the Hanover, N. H., public Library; Miss I .tharilie B. Greene, assistant in the library of the Massachusetts Gencral. Hospital; and 1liss Eleanor L. Moore, Simmons. 1921, from the Harvard Landscape Library. Statistics compiled by the American Library Association and various states show that there should be approximately , I.MRARIAN's REPORT j!.3 one assistant for every 15,000 volumes circulated. At that- rate our staff is inadequate as we should have four additional assistants to meet those requirements. I Flo not ask at this time for an extra full-tiine assistant but do ask that provision be made so that we can have more part-time workers. We have been training some High School seniors who would be very useful to us and if the East Branch devulops as we expect we. shall reed two or more there as well as at the. Main Library*. Last vear we asked flor an additional 00 on our appropria- tion for hoofs, periodicals and. binding. This was not granted. e therefore have not been able to buy as many books for our opening of the new East Branch as we %%rished. We are espe- cially* short on our refereence brooks and juveniles. Increased use means to a large extent, the purchase of additional new looks, more replacements and binding, This is an age of progress and in many subjects the backs of a few years ago are useless today. A larger appropriation for looks, periodicals and binding will be necessary- to meet the needs of the library. We have had linoleum laid in our reference room and some other needed repairs made in the building and I trust that the iteni of building up-keep will be smaller in the coming year. I-re have stiil the problem of ascertaining the cost of maintaining the East Branch building but it should come within our present maintenance budget. The Current Events Mass of the Wonian`s Club continues to meet at the Public Library and similar classes and meetings 6f an educational nature can lie held in the meeting roorn in the new Branch building. TTe again express our thanks for the gifts of hoof and nnaf azines that have came to us this year and for another bust by Harriet Hosmer, which was the gift of Mrs. C. Thompson, of Cambridge. In addition to attending the conference of the Ainerican Library Assoc.Riati,in, the Librarian and staff have attended the meetings of the: Massaeli us tts Library Club and the Neighbor- hood Library Group. 1ii 'March the latter inet at our library. Mr. Little, librarian of the Waltham Library led a round-table discussion on loan desk problems and 11r. Minot, one of our Tnistees, spoke on "His, or Her Best Book." As he had only time to mention the American. authors, at the request of the � 7 WATERT[}WN T07vVX REPORT group, he consented to contiaue his talk, taking up the English authors, at the neat meeting-which was held at the Waltham Public Library. I wish to commend the work and spirit of the members of the library staff and to express to yon, the Trllstces, same mea,qure of the pleasure that it has been to work with you. :Respectfully submitted, LYDIA W.

The Thirtieth Annual Report OF THE WATER DEPARTMENT Ae OF WATERTOWN, IMASS. 1926 200 i �� , .WA s z e REPORT OF THE WATER DEPARTMENT The large expenditure of money during 1926 for the e:cten- sion of mains for household purposes in the ncxvly developed section of the Town has been considerable and warrented, as reflected in the growing receipts for water rates, appro imating clearly S1350,000 in 1026, with all, a. goad investment. A easeful study reveals the fact that four years is about the length of time that a meter will register a fairly accurate reading of the quantity of water that passes through, or in other words, to collect for water consumed the system must be kept up to at least a normal state of efficiency. By the employment of ti,,=o additional meter readers and. repairers of meters, whose spare time has been devoted to replacing those long in use and therefore not registering the correct quantity used, the Town has benefited approximately 10,000 during this Sallie period. It is necessary- from time to time to replace equipment. We have included in our budget and appropriation for two one- ton trucks to replac- these that are absolutely -worn out and unprofitable to opc rate and beep in repair. We have also in- cluded in the budget an item of $2,800 for are 1ngersol Rand Air Compressor. At present our excavation work is done Mith the pick and shovel which is pnMitive and obsolete, and -,Nfhere we encounter boulders and ledge Na-ork that has to be clone with the old-fashioned drill and blasting. As regards cast of construction, this piece of appart�tus would be ven,useful where we encounter unusually hard excavating. We have also asked for an addi- tional clerk to keep up the work in this rapidly growing De- partment. The office force are compelled to stay overtime on many occasions in carder to keep up their wort:.. Lacking a few minor items in the way of equipment, want of storage space at the Department Building and necessary repairs on the same„ the year's work and activities are closed with the largest amouuit of meters installed and feet of pipe laid and 3 6 4 'WATERT'C1WN TC7Wi4 REPORT replaced in the history of the Department.

William A. Bishop, iVI.D., having been reelected a member of the Board, the regular meeting was held`l\farch �.3, 1926, and organized as follows: Chairman, Mr. Alford M. Graham. Secretary, Mr. henry A. Thurlow. The, same office force was reappointed with the exception of the Plumbing Inspector. The rapid growth of the To,-vn with its consequent large increase in population has added much to the work of the Department and also to its health problems. The Board., how- ever, feels that with a rearrangement of its force it can do much to meet the increase in work and obtain thereby the maximum of efficiency. With this object in view, the Board will do that which it deems best to safeguard the public health. Because of this rapid groxvtb of the Town which is hest illustrated by the Figures given in this report, your Board deems it urgent to again emphasize the need of some definite action being taken by the To—"m wlth reference to the securing of additional land for cemetery purposes, as recommended two years alto by this Board, and also by a special committee appointed at the Tom Meeting, consisting of the Chaarmaar, of the Board of Health, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen and Chairman of the Committee of Finance. It is to be' regretted that advantage was not taken of the opportunity presented two years ago, when most of this land could have been secured by the Town for less than the assessed value. Since that time, however, several parcels have been disposed of, and buildings are being rabidly erected in close proximity. If this is permitted to continue, the Town will, in the near future, find itself without adequate burial grounds. There is NVATE♦RTOWIN TOWN REPORT still sorne of the land available awl, the To-v�,n should not, permit the opportunity to pass without, same definite action being taken before values have increased to a prohibitive price. In viex of the conditions stated above, the. Board of Health herewith urges that the matter: be taken up at the next Town Meeting. Your Board has stressed the above recommendation because it believes it to be urgent. During the year, the Board held tLweWe regular and six special meetings. A detailed summary of the work of the Depart- ment together with a rcs=6 of the sanitary conditions of the Town will be found in a perusal of the report of the agent and ether employees of the Department. The Board takes this opportunity to thank its citizens, Board of Selectmen, other officials and employees for their assistance and covgeration during the coming year. Respectfully submitted, ALFORD M. GRAIrTAIVI, Chairman, WILLIAXI A. BISHOP, M.D. HENRY A. THUR.LOW, Se-crel ary. REPORT OF THE AGENT To the Board of Hcalih, Town of T atcrkrxn. Gcn dcmen As Agent of the -Board of Health, I herewith submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1926. General Health, W'ith a population rapidly approaching the 30,000 marl, 'Watertown has become a large community, with its consequent increasing problems,of which the health problem is an important one. Constant surveillance must be maintained that the health of the people may be properly safeguarded. The, following figures may be of interest as showing hew rapidly the Town has grown during; the last eight years. During the year 1913 permits were issued by the Building Inspector for the erection of nineteen single houses, four double houses, and three buildings for store purposes. In 1926, permits were issued for the erection of 212 single dwellings, 316 double dwellings, 11 stare buildings averaging about five stores each, stores with teneinents above, 4, a total, from 1913 to 1926 inclusive, of 772 single dwellings., 968 double dwellings and 87 store buildings. During this time a total of 2,000 plumbing permits were issued by the Plumbing Inspector and 5,000 inspections of the work done as authorized by the pernxits, nearly 400 new stores are occupied, nanny of them by persons dealing in fruit, foodstuffs, restaurants, and bakeries, all of which require inspection. In 1918,. dealers and 45 stores were licensed to sell milk, 3 oleomargarine licenses were granted, and 271 pedlar licenses. In 1926, 32 dealers and 167 stores were licensed to sell milk, also 24 oleomargarine and 39 pedlar's licenses were issued. The public school population.shows an increase from 3,201 in 1913, to 4,610 in 1926. These figures �are exclusive of the pupils in the parochial schools. With this increase in school 5 6 WATERTOWN TOWN' REPORT population comes the serious problem of controlling com- municable diseases. As an indication of how well, with the aid of newly discovered ser=s, they are boing coa rolled, it m,ry be stated that not- withstanding this large increase, the numbor of communicable diseases is less and in sGrne casks much less than formerly, notably typhoid fever and diphtheria. During 1925 but one case, and in 1926 not a single case of typhoid fever was reported here. Perhaps the most important decrease of reportable diseases is that of diphtheria. . Diphtheria The remarkable decrease in the number of cases reported is excellent evidence of the value of toxin antita ; this decrease is unquestionably dire to the work of immunizing children during the last several years. The comparative figures given below aught to be convincing proof to the parents that it is in their power to prevent their children having diphtheria, if they would but take advantage of the opportunity afforded them. Many parents who ordi- narily give little thought to vaccMation will rush to have it done at the mere mention of a case of smallpox. Diphtheria is always prmnt and much more deadly. The only method by which it can be successfully combated is to remove every bit of available material on which it feeds. The fool for diphtheria is the susceptible child. To successfully stamp out this disease, you should have your children immun- ized at an early age. This Department urges every parent to consult their fainily physician about Minaunizing with toxin antitoxin. There is no question that diphtheria. can be stamped out if the parent will cooperate with the health Department in its efforts. This Department is ready to hold clinics at 'which parents may have their children immunized without cost. It will fun-iish their family physician, without cost, toxin anti- toxin for the purpose. In this respect it is urgent, if we expect to beep diphtheria down, that every child after it becomes SEX months of age be immunized. The following figures offer concrete uvidenee of what may be dank. In 1922, there were 98 cases of diphtheria reported f SPORT OF BOAR-D of HEALTH 7 with two deaths. In 1923, 76 cases, two deaths; 1924, 55 cases and one death; 1925, 29 cases and no deaths; in 1926, 8 cases and no deaths. There were several deaths in out-of-town hospitals not included in these figures. Parents should study these figures and draw their own conclusions. Scarlet Fever Ire December, 1926, the following letter was published with the desire that parents realize more fully the situation and the need of co5peration with the Health Department that scarlet fever cases might be reduced to the minimum. To tire Parents of lai'ale)-form At this season of the year, when the possibilities of con- tracting many contagious diseases is greatest, the Health Department deems it necessary to stress the utmost need of parents using every prccaution to protect not only their own children, but their neighbors' as tvell. For a long time, Watertown has been almost free of diph- theria and has been quite free from scarlet fever. Since the opening of the school,, however, a number of cases of s rlet fever have been reported. These have been scattered, and in almost every instance have been due to the apparent careless- ness of some parent who has sent one or more: children lack to school after an apparent mild illness. For several years this disease has been prevalent through- out the State. So nlild has it been that the patient has been ill but a day or two, and is then up and about and to all appear- ances well, is sent back to school, and more cases result as a consequence. Parents should and must lie mare careful in sending their children back- who have been absent from school due to a seemingly slight indisposition. The present form of scarlet fever is mild, and difficult to diagnose unless seen in its early stage by a physician. A slight sore throat., a bit of fever, a flush or rash tells him the story, while to a parent it is merely a. stomach disturbance caused by something the child ate. Parents should be impressed with the utmost need of eo6perating with the Health Department in order to secure } ATERTCJWN TOA N REPORT the maximum protection, not only for their own household, but for the protection of the whole community. That you may do your part, call a physician early if a member of your family is indisposed, has a sari: throat, a bit of fever, red throat, rash or redness of any hart of the body. This letter is issued, not because there is an unusual number of cases of scarlet fever in Watertawn, but as an appeal to the parents to do their part that an unnecessary number of cases may be prevented. The Health Department must bave your cobperation in order to provide the protection expected of it, it cannot give this protection so long as a parent Will send a child back to school who is actually ill with a contagious disease. It is no excuse to say, "I drought the child woWd be all right in a day or two." To be sure you are right, call a physician early, especially if any of the signs indicated in this letter are Present. The Board of Health appreciates and believes it will, as in the past, have your co6pera.tion in its cffurts to prevent an unnecessary number of contagious diseases. Very truly yours, Jahn W. Tapper, Agent. s yet, many parents evidently dry not retilize the situation, Notwithstanding the publication of this letter a number of unrecognized eases hat.e been discovered, that is, cases in Which the children were out for a day or two and pennitted to return to school without having the attention of a physician. Because. of this carelessness, undoubtedly, maliy more cases of scarlet fever were reported for the year, not only in Watertown, but throughout the State, than Swore necessary. It is therefore urgent and deemed necessary that parents give more attention to the child who may to them seem only indisposed. The community still enjoys the distinction of being not only one of the healthiest, but also having one of REPORT OF BOARD OF 11EA i..TH � the lowest death rates in the country. 'IA"hile the death rate is higher than for 1920), it is still one of the lowe-9t. The total number of death—, for MG was 202 With a, death rate of 7.1. In 1925, there were 28 eases of pulmonary tuberculosis reported with four deaths, 12 cases of tuberculosis, ether farms, with four deaths; in 1026, there were 22 cases of pulmonary tuber- culosis with five deaths, and four doses of tuberculosis, other forms, with but one.death. In 192.5, 40 uses of lobar pneumonia -were reported with 12 deaths; and in 1926, 39 cases were reported with 1_6 deaths, showing an increase in the death rate from that cause. In tabulating the ages of deceased persons a large incr&-me in deaths among elderly people is very -notice- able. During 1925, 84 persons between the ages of 60 to 100 years as compared to 110 persons of the same age groups, died. in 1926. Cancer caused 17 deaths in 1925, and 18 in 1926. Deaths clue to violent causes were the sarne as last year. Child Welfare Work Our baby clinics have in every way proven their value- As many as thirty mothers have attended a, single clinic in the East End, all anxious to be advised. Perfect co6peration ipith tho local medical fraternity has made this an ideal health unit. Tn value returned it is worth many tithes its cast. Dental Clinic A glance at the report of the School Dentist should convince the most skeptical of the value of this work. early in the year, your Agent had the pleasure of judging papers on health hygiene submitted by the scholars of the lower grades at the GoolMge School. The intelligonee displayed their apparent .grasp of the subject, and was indeed very gratifying. Interest in the contest was stimulated and encouraged by the dentist and his assistant who offered small cash prizes for the hest papers submitted. Ridgelawn Cemetery Development During the year, in compliance with your instructions the work of the development of Ridgelawn Cemetery entrance has progressed very satisfactorily. A 50-foot extension to the 10 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT main retaining wall was built. This wall will average 3 feet thick and nearly 10 feet in height. A-lany yards of gravel were required for }pack filling, all of -which, including the stone and gravel necessary for the work, was secured within the premises. A fU-float circle in front of the proposed tDinb is nearly completed. The concrete foundation, 26 feet by 47 feet and 0 feet in height, has been constructed. The coning year should show the completion of all necessary underground work for the tomb. The fmmdatinn and surroundings will their be ready for any upper structure the Town may deem desirable to erect thereon. This year many new shrubs, roses and other flower beds were added, thus adding much to the beauty of the cemetery. Sanitary Conditions The sanit lt-y conditions of the Town are rapidly improving. Many dumps and low places have been eliminated. The immense number of new buildings being erceted, especially in those sections of the Town which as yet are unseivered, has created quite a problem because of the cesspools that must be wilt to provide for se%%,ernge until such tii°ne as the Tovm can exteiarl the se-wer system in these sections. Comfort Station The increase in population and the traveling public Makes it most imperative that some provision for a comfort station in or near the square be made at an early date. i wish to tape this opportunity to thank everybody for their assistance during the year just closed.

It is regrettable that the land which was coffered to the Town two year-s ace, and which is adjacent to the cemetery an the southeast side was not acquired at the price which was asked. The building operations already begmi in that section on the land so desirable for cemetery ptupores, and particularly to our future needs, is snaking the situation snore complex, and the values n}uch higher. We had hoped to have installed signs at the avenues and paths in the cemetery but until too late in the year, no makers of such signs were found who would give us a price which was at all within the range of possibilities. Late in No-,,,ember, however, a price was cbt.aiued which if the amount which was given us last year can be made available again this year, �� 11 enable tis to procure enough signs to snarl the paths in Sections 11, P, and '-\'I, where so many lots have been sold. During the past year quite a number of costly memorial stones Bove been set rap, and several other proppriotors are negotiating for mon-Lunents tc be planed in their lots during the coming year. The grounds have been given careful attention and have shown results satisfactory to many of the lot owners. The usual care has been Wven to Common Street Cemetery and the grounds are in goad condition. It will be necessary in the near future to replace the old wooden fence between the cernetery and the Senior High Schoen grounds which is rapidly going to decay, also to repaint with cement the stone wall on ornmori Street.

During the summer children were taken to North Reading Sanatorium, Carnbridge Out-patient Department„and Children's Ho.spita.l for examinations and treatments, and two trips were made to Rutland Sanatorium with patients. Due to the generosity of Mr. Axthur Whitney, and the Watertown Ledge of Elks, four more (ten in all) than our quota of underweight children were sent to a health camp in Sharon for aperiod of eight weeks. These children were exam- ined by the Board of Health physician before,leaving Watertown and when they returned in Septcmber, nine children had gained from three to nine pounds, and one lost two and one-half pounds due to nervous disorder. During July and August twelve lectures were given to a 25 2 WAT1 RTOWN TOWN RLPOR,T class of girls at Saltonstall Park Playground and a demomgtra- tion given at their exhibition at Victory Field. Beginning October 18 sixteen lessons on "Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick," were given to a class of thirty-two eighth-grade girls at t. Patrick's School. Again I wish to express my appreciation to Dr. Butler and Dr. Secord, also Dr. M. J. Kelley for their eo6peration in the Baby Clinics and school Work. Respeethilly submitted, EDITH 1t1.

During the year our efforts havecontinued along the lines as cut.lines in my report of last year, that is, to teach the child the function Care of and value of good teeth, and also to impress by simple instruction and illustration, the need of good teeth if they would enjoy hood health. With this in view, we have distributed to the children many pamphlets furnished by the Mate. A contest, was held in which the scholars were invited to submit health papers written by thcnisclves. To stimulate their efforts, several money prizes donated by the School Dentist and Assistant, were awarded. The papers w+erc judged and awards inade by. Mr. Tapper, Agent of the hoard of Health. The eagerness manifested by the children was ample reward for the effort, and the results give conclusive evidence of their interest in the work. I wish to take this opportunity to express my appreciation of the help given by the Agent of the Board of -lealth, my Assistant, and all others for helpful co-operation during the year. 28 Francis Parker Marshall and and Spring Coolidge FFasiner Phillips Grant and Lowell .SC.

The Toi�%,n has built a twelve-room elementary school in its northern part. This �01 relieve the congestion of the N-larshall Spring, Francis, Phillips and Grant Schools. It -%611 also relieve the I osi-ner School sernew-hat. A committee on survey of future building needs of the town has been authori2ed by tlic Torn. This Cenrnlittee, undoubt- edly, Neill he composed of citizens who are well irifometl as to the future needs of the School Department. Another committee has been i-ithmized to obtain plans and estimates of the cost of an addition to the West Jtuilcr High School. This addition is very inuch heeded, and was foreseen her the original building cornmittee of the West jtmior Nigh School. ` There has seemed to be a very good spirit existing between the public and the school system.. Inside the systcrn itself there has been a very goad spirit of co-operation and helpfullicss, Our Super rltcrzdent, High School Principal, and Department Directors have written comprehensive and instructive reports which follow. I herei ith wish to express my personal thanks to the Super- intendent, principals, teachers, and to nay co-w arkers on the Com�x�ittee. Respectfully- submitted, CHARLES 0. CHASE, M.D., 01-ala1rallan of 111C . chool Committee. G SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To the School Committee: I herewith submit my nineteenth annual report as Super- intendent of Schools of 117'atcrto gin. This report is. the eighty- ninth printed report of the School Committee of Watertown. The year nineteen hundred twenty-sip. has 1)(�cii one of concerted effort in the Watertown Public Scliools and a relative high standard of achievement has been maintained throughout the system. We are still eery far from full attaiatnent of our ideals of what we conceive to be possible through education; but in all departments there are manifest the dispositions to sustain that which is food, to improve that which we see should. be made better and to push forward persistently toward the cver receding ,goal, the best that human iustrumentali ties may achieve. There are two outstanding; general problenis requiring scientific study-, determination of the consensus of pttblic opinion of the policy to he pursued and the organization of a technique of procedure. One of these problems has to do rti�ith the every- concrete and practical questions of suitable building prograrn to satisfy the present and prospective requirements of the pupils to be educated in our schools. While the community has been very generous in providing schools it has only kept pace with the growth of the `1.'owrti. Our West Junior High School completed in the fall of 1922 is noun full to its capacity. The building with t,relve classrooms was built to acconiniodate four hundred and eighty pupils; we now have approximately fire hundred. The Dome room glasses as conducted in the West Junior High School are too large so that at least one additional teacher is tie ded for each grade. So that %A it;h the growth we see immediate need of fire or six rooms for the fall of 1927. M of the roam in the New Coolidge, so recently conipletecl, are occupied and at the Hosmer we have ail roonis accupied with ati extra class seated in the: hall. The secand outstanding general problem of the present 7 w--�-TrRTOWN TOWN REPORT situation is the improvenient of scliml methods and procedures to keep pace with the increasing difficulty of pupils in adjusting themselves to life situations in a civilization constantly becoming more complex and worldly-cerise. President Hopkins of Dart- mouth is reported as saying that the selective process of admis- sion to Dartmouth College is an attempt to winnow out from among the applicants those men of ilitclligence axed mental power who .have greater promise of living usefully and helpfully among their fellows ui the society of their time, When all is said and done, the college does not and cannot cliange the self of any man. It can, however, offer assistance, guidance anO sometimes inspiration for a inaii to distinguish between his baser and his bettor characteristics and can help hin-i to find those qualities of wisdom, industry and goodness. The great opportunity of the college in its relations to any man is that it may offer hini guidance to himself. The function of the public: school should be and is the .rendering of the same kind of service of personality, guidance, assistance and inspiration on a more elementary scholastic level. Since we have the pupils younger and in az more plastic state we may hope to mould them to a greater degree within the limits of their endowments to live usefully and helpfully among their feUows in the society cf their time. The Things Pupils Study The course of study in our schools means the different branches of knowledge studied by our youth. It is our aim and sincere endeavor to keep the number of different subjects as s gall as possible in this complicated age, and the amount of material taken in each branch sufficiently limited to allow thoroughness in teaching. Our teachers work f-'n=estly and -,pith success. The fine progress children make, especially the younger ones, is always a matter of surprise when parents visit them iii school. The American way is for all the children of all the people to come to school. It is therefore not to be expected that all the children attending are equally endowed and make equal progress. SUPERI ITE NDE\T}5 ICE PORT D Scholarship and Citizenship We all recognize character building into good citizens as the greatest abject in education. We must find additional means of building it into our school wort, of measuring it in our pupils and of setting its ideals high. Parents and teachers must get together as they have ne�-er done before. They- muE;t see the whole child and its needs. They mitst see that first things are placed first. If this is clone there is no reason why good citizenship may not crown the efforts of parents, teachers and pupils.. The Senior High School Mr. Whitehill, the Senior High School Master, writes in part as follows: "A second year incur new building has s -ed to confer the impression already made that, NVatertown through its Building Committee and the architects has provided N-�isely for the needs of the school and for the accommodation of the various groups in the ccnimunity who have haft occasion to use: it. The unanimous verdict of many- visitors, both fro n our own and from neighboring states, has been that we have a beautiful, well planned, and well equipped building. Best of all is the generous, and yet in the end econorni al, provision for the growth of the school in this rapidly growing community. The enrolment this year is about eleven per cent larger than last, while a ,graduating class of about 175 as against I16 last year indicated clearly the increasing number who realize the value of a high school diploma as an asset in the econamic life of today. Of the class of 1926, 32 enrolled. M higher educational institutions, while at the time of their grad€iation nearly- all ' of those who studied in the Commercial Department had secured remunerative employment. 4 few are supplementing their high school course with an extra year of preparation for college either here or elsewhere. The record of those whe took the tests of the College Entrance Exmiunation Board en recoi=endation of the school shows conclusively that for those who have the native abiliti, acid ,%vho are willing to put forth the necessary effort the school furnished adequate preparation. Of 23 examinations for which 10 WATE:RTO N TOWN REPORT pupils were recommended, 21 were passed, nine of these with marls -which may be considered as honors; 22 examinations for which the recommendation of the school could not be given were passed, three with honors. The college record of those pupils who entered higher insti- tutions from the class of 1925 is another evtdence of the thor- ouglu-tess of their preparation, At the end. of the first semester in college the SclifaoI received reports for 22 pupils in a total of 165 subjects. Of these grades, four were. failures, 14 w-ere D',s or low passim;, 74 Cs or clearly- passin1g, and 73 B's and 1's, or honer marks. Harvard, Radcliffe, Massachusetts lnstituLe of Technolo , JVellesleyr Wheaton, Boston University and Si1Itt3 oils Were. aniong the institutions represented in these results. At the be inning of the present school year -iiss Stella Niarse, one of cur own graduates, began her duties as full time librarian. Miss Morse began her library training tinder Miss Masters in our own public library, �7,aGdnated from Simmons College, and has had several years successful experience in school libraries. Her own report sbows clearly her value to the school. Report of the Library by Miss l-lorse, `DUTIng the four inonths, September through December, 1926, 1,145 books have been loaned to students and faculty, the average inicreasin f from eight per clay in September to 2 pur day in December. "].'he attolid ttnce in the library during the same period, totals 4,508. A few examples of the questions asked, are as follows: What is the effect of water power on -New, England indus- tries' IAThere will I fund a picture of a Ronan lamp 1-iave you any other books on poultry What are the ditties of a Chamber of. Commerce? Although we have a, good collection of books with which to start our libran,, the dennand has already exceeded the supply. About 125 books and 75 pictures bane been borrowed froth Watertown public Libmry to help fill the need. The "Pageant of America" borrowed for short periods has proved most SUPERIINTENTENT'S REPORT. I I poptilar. -Xevvton and Boston public libraries have loaned us four books. Thanl�s are due the faculty and students who have co- operated with the Librarian by donating back files of inagazines and loaning exbibits for our ca-I'Ve, Three students to whorn the librarian has been giving practical training in library work, have secured paid work at M "the Public Library. The high school librarian is seeking other ways of linking high school and public llbTUICS. Several students after having exhausted their mm librarv's resources, have been sent to the public library for specific boolcs and magazines which. had been rcscr%-�;d for the students. The Librarian has also completed the eight weeks' course in Library Instruction, gitren in five Of the junior E t-�glis-h Classes. The course consists of six lectures with a problem in connection with each, an oral review and a. writtun exaniina Lion. We are grateful for the supplies which we already. have, 0 1 - me in the future. and can pitt to od use that which wi11 co Our watcInvords for 1927 are service and Nision (or vision and then service).' On December 17 an entertainment given by our pupils to an audience of niore than six bun(Ired was a splendid exhibition of the resources of the school. An crehestra, composed of about tweilty members. of the school oreliestra was drilled for the occasion and led by a member of the senior class. Two one-act plays were coached by Mr.Woodwell of the faculty. The scenery was made in the woodwork-ing shop and painted in the Art Department. The costumes here designed and made in the Domestic Science Department. The dances were prepared under the direction of the Physical Education Department, while the Printing Department furnished programs ancl tickets. The Art Department also furnished a hberal supply of posters. The spirit of the school fcr the past year has beeii excep- tionally' gcod. Teachers and pupils have co-operated splendidly in both the regular work and in the extra-Clirricular activities. As in previous years Harvard, Boston University, Framing- hain and Salem State Nonnal Schools Dave: siALt to us students for Practice Teaching. These students spend a part of their th-ne obscriing the -%%,ork of the regular teachers and then under 12 WA'r1iRTOWN 'OWiN REPORT the supervision of the teachers conduct the classes for a short period. In this way the Watertown High School contributes materially to better teaching in the schools of the State." Industrial ,Arts for Boys We now have a well-established corirsc its Industrial Arts for our boys beginning with Grade V and rtuining through the Senior High. School. Mr. Joh , black, our director, ivrites in part as fnilows: "During the pest year, Tegtilar monthly meetings have been. held with the several shop instructors. At these nicetin s the course of study to be used in the Woodworking, Sheet Metal and Printing departments of the ft Junior High Schools have been adopted and processes analyzed. These are now being prepared for distribution. The courses of study for the fifth and sixth grades are uow W the making. The courses of stuciv to be used at the Senior High in lrlacbme Shop Practice, Wcaflworldng, Printing, Sheet Metal and Mechanical Drawing are also being prepared. ONiiiig to the increased number of pupils in the fifth, sixth, and se-venth grades it leas been necessary to have a hart-time instructor for three days a `Neck.

Hiss Rena I. Bisbee, our IN-lusic Direc- tor, writes in part as follows- "I feel that a great advancement has been made this year in the music studies of our public sebools by the introduction of a most excellent and comprehensive course in music appre- ciation. It is presented by the grade teacber, beginning with the child's first year in school; and the records, which were mpecially prepared for this course by Ginn and Company, are most attractive as well as instructive. A good fotmdation for general musical understanding is laid by in- gradually from going simple inelodies and rhythms to the more complicated forms. At the same time the child learns to distinguish between the tones of different orchestral histrw-nents used singly, then in combination of twos and threes and finally the full ensemble. The teachers report great enthusiasm an the part of the pupils and I have also heard favorable reports from the parents in regard to this music appreciation, Not only are the children being educated musically but there is a general cultural influence as well as an opportunity for correlation with other studies that is bound to be helpful. At prm-nt the High School Chorus is wholly elective and has been dohig score -very good work. They are working an a cantata, 'The Building of the Ship,' with the idea of giving a public concert soon, hiring professional talent for the solo parts. *Instructor teaches both classes at same time. 14 WATERTC3WN TOWX RLPORT The singing at they Christmas assemblies this year, in both Grammar and junior High schools, showed for the most part an improvement in accuracy and tone quality that was very gratifying. The junior High Orchestras have good variety of instruments and will begin this next terra to prepare for their annual concert which cones late in the spring. The High School Orchestra got intn shape very easily this fall because most of the new inembers had been trained in the jiuuor Ilimh orchestra. 'They figrttred as a `S)pecial Attraction' can the evening of Dcc:eml3cr 10, when they played at the Coolidge Theatre, r cehing most enthusiastic commendation from the management. Then on December 20 they gave their annual program for the Woman's Club. This organization has always given them an enthusiastic reception and shown a Sympathetic interest in their development. As the genersal school work in Watertown advances we trust the Music Department niay keep puce -tiith It and be z credit to our ;Stperintendent and School Board." Americanization e are taking advantage of the State's assistance in organ- izing tl)e Americanization work and � e are receiving one-lialf Of the expense fror n the State. bliss Marion P. Deep, our director, writes in part as follows: "Thc pro rain in Adult Alien Education in Watertown is planned insofar as possible to meet most effectively the needs of the local foreign-morn people. This year two racial group committee-s have een organize6, representing the two largest. foreign groups in 'Watertown — the Italian and the Armenian. These racial committees are actively engaged in acgtiainting their people with the educational opportunities which 11-Tater- to-xm offers. The loera:l supervisor meets with the committees and with their assistance and helpful contacts, some v.ery much worth-while work has been accomplished, Classes have been organized in the evening sclicals, in, the factories.and in the homes. There are at the present tune some suxteen classes in operation -- five in the East junior High School, three in the West jurdor High School, three factory SUPERINTENDENT I S REPORT 15 classes and fire mothers' classes. In these classes the foreign- born are taught to speak, react and write the English language and they receive training in the fundai nnntals of oar history and goven-Lment which prepares them for their naturalization examination. The Americanization of the immigrant is not a matter of schooling alone. It is more than this. It is a matter of good housing, of clean milk for babies, of satisfying industrial con- ditions, of the spirit of neighborliness between Americans, old and new. Everything that vouches the immigrant's life is any instrumentality for his Americanization or the reverse. Bence, the need of acquainting our late arrivals with the life of America at its best. Nfuch constructive work is being, deem ar nong the foreign- born women. No longer do the foreign mothers have to be urged to attend the classes. There is an increasing demand by the mothers themselves — those w-ho cannot leave their homes to attend a school class on account €f family ties— for training in horse classes. These mothers are given instruction in English, the lessons so planned as to correlate directly with household activities. They are taught hygiene and the advantages of the clinics. "Through the Influence of the teachers many foreign women bane taken their cliddren to the �Va.tertm,%,n clinics. These children are Watertow n's future citizens. It is vitally important; that they be given a right start. By reaching these foreign-borne mothers in our classes, a tremendously- important and earth-while step is being made in inculcating and preserving the ideals of America, and in preparing the newcomers and their children for feature citizenship. _"Tatertmvn needs to provide adequate means for carrying out this Vital sen-ice and furthering American ideals." State-Aided 'Vocational School We hare, in the past few years, expended from $G,000 to $7,000 per year to Boston, Nlex ton and Cambridge for the bays over foitrteen years of age who had completed the sixth year, but: desired to take up trade cotu-ses which had not been maintained in a.terto=. With the completion of the New Senior High School and 10 `4 ATERTOWN TOWN REPORT the establishment of Industrial Courses in both Senior and Junior High Schools, we b a4 a been. able to keep these boys lamer in our own system, thereby reducing the amount paid in tuition in other towns by one-half. The amount paid this last year was approximately $3,000. Anil as tune goes on the amount should be reduced. State Reimbursement The largest amount is for teachers' salaries. The amouint is based upon their training and experience: Watertown received in 1.926 on account of: Teachm' salaries . 30,360.10 AmericanizatiDn 1,610.47 Trade and Continuation Schools 3,i~55; 63 State Wards 1,221.90 Smith-Hughes Fund 122.04 Health Work As I stated in my last report our school nurses are among the busiest workers in the school system.
