The year 1927 has been one of progress in the development of our Town. Vacant areas have been built upon, and today whole sections have become are integral part of our community. The mushroam growth -which tie have experienced in the past few years has been met in an entirely satisfactory manner by the different depart-rents under whose charge construction work on our streets, sewers and water were intrusted. The cleaning up of the unsightly condition in our square by the; improvements on the Delta, and th(e continuation of our highway to Whites' Aveime, with its improved lightinginstalla- tion, has brought favorable comment from not only our-own residents, but also from the many people who pass through to Cambridge, Boston, Waltham and Newton. The addition of the traffic signals in the square leas had about eight months' tryout, .and, while they may not be abso- lutely fool-proof, they have .provided a factor of safety to the extent that: today there are no traffic jams, and the officers in. charge are not subjected to the possibility of death ar serious injury by careless or drunken drivers by hav7ng the controls away from the centre of the highway. Construction work on our public ways received serious con- sideration by the Town this year, aid appropriations were trade in the March meeting ;which made it passible to construct War.Kerley Avenue from Main Street to Orchard Street. During the course of construction, sewer, gas and water were laid into the, various leas that were built upon; rounded curbing for street interseetions was also laid and there should be no goad reason why the surface of the street should be dis- turbed for many years tc come. This street was built of bituminous concrete on a fmtndation prepared by the Town.. Alany yards of clay were removed and the sub-grade rolled in of .gravel procured from our own gravel pit, which we- are sorry,- to say is now about depleted. 27 28 1. ATL'RTC3WN 'r(7FWN REPORT An asphalt black tap, properly laid and rolled, completed the street which for many years was.the cause of severecriticism from the residents of that section and those who had occasion to use it. The construction of Pleasant Street, from the Aetna Mills to the Waltham. line, was completed the latter part of the year, and we feel very proud of this connecting link of concrete high- way with Waltham. The sub-grade on this highway Naas pre- pared by Town labor and the concrete construction was awarded to Simpson Brothers' Corporation, the lowest bidders, who completed their work in record time and went the limit to pro%side a first-class job. Orchard Street, from Oointnon Street to Waverley Avenue, was also built, at a very small cost, considering the total longtli, and it is hoped that ro repairs will be necessary until such time as a widening is made. Next year the surfacing should coli- tinue to the intersection of Lexington St;rvct and Knowles Delta. No further construction can be carried out on this highway until such time as the Metropolitan Sewer, now pe- titioned for in the U-4gislature, will be extended to our Town line and proper entranco by gravity made by the various vacant areas now awaiting development, but retarded, cawing to the lack of sewer facilities. Surface drainage on the northerly side of Alain Street was extended by the laying of a new drain on Main Street and emp- tying into Acton Street from Rutland Street. In the near future the continuation of a large drain tea take the place of the now open ditch must be provided for and a complete study made to care for this territory. The section of .11lfaia Street from Whites' Avenue to the bridge should be built next year, +,bich will finish our portion of the highway; the balance to the Waltliam line is now con- trolled by the State, and plans are now being prepared by the H gh;tfay Conimission to finish aid iNiden its section to the Waltham 1111e. Fourteen betterinent streets were completed this year, and while the number was in excess of any other year, the necessity was apparent, Because in nearly all cases the lots were all built -upon, and nn goad reason could be advanced why they should REPORT OF SELECTMEN 29 not be constructed. The year 1928 promises to become even a bigger year; petitions for over twenty-five new streets are now in the hands of the &,le+ctmen for consideratian. The necessity for more police officers, especially on traffic, to safeguard our school children, Must be considered and all sections of the Town receive their just proportion of protection. Many of the routes are too long, and with the demands upon the department to try doors and windows during i-acation periods and periodical vacancies, it eves ample opportunity for these not honestly inclined to ply their trade. No hope of relief from additional schools or additions can be expected until all our available land is built upon for harne.s or industrial purposes, and in general all departments are con- fronted with the necessity of increased appropriations to carry on the work of their various departments. Additional fire protection must be pro-,Tided for in the near future and protect3en given to the North Section, where over one thousand harries have been built within the past five years. Watertown is partieularly favored in leaving a very* high water pressure in all parts of the Town, but changes in the Metrapoli- tan rater lines inade it necessary to lower their pressure on many of our mains. This means additional punips in our Fire Department which depended on street pressure heretofore. The question of a municipal garage to house the automobiles of the different departments should receive consideration, as the saving in time and money wotild be an appreciable factor. Additional space for our fire and police signal equipment could be taken care of if the property ',11AILtillg the railroad at Cross Street was secured by the Town, and the ,garage built upon this site. The overcrowding, due to increased work and larger number of employees in the Town Hall, should receive the consideration of the whole Town. The upper hall, now rented infrequently, could be remodelled and all of the departments be consolidated under one roof. The Department of Public Welfare, Building Inspector, Poles and Fires and Tree Warden would be able to have the use of the new section. The auditor, now carrying on his work in an eight by eight office with an assistant, would benefit by the change, and larger quarters would be pro-Med for Q WATEIr"t`(3WN TOWN REPORT him alga. The Water Department, now badly overcrowded, would occupy the space now occupied. by the Health Depart- ment, in addition to the office they now occupy. The Health Department would be in the now addition and larger quarters pro-vided tutder the plan as outlined. The death of Selectman Ai thur H. Whitney was a severe loss to the Town, and we all appreciated his devotion to his duty as Chairman of the Beard of Selectinon.. L'DWARD D. HOLLAN15, J OHN P. BARRETT, FETED J.

BRIGHANI, Treasrtrer. REEPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE TO tha Fiprance GOIJI)aaa:ifee, l Valerlami, 2.1ass. Gantleinoa: In making my report to yuu this year, lam led to present the following figures: F The debt of lAratertown in 1916 vas .S807,725, a per capita, cif $36.60. In 1,926 it had increased to 2,213,223, a per capita of $113, and }yet, daring this period, we have paid off S1,370,725 11ave paid in interest can the cleft 85-48,42.2, and in addition, 160,000 more for interest on borrowings in anticipation of to-xcs. The budget i7-i 1916 ai»ounted to $663,897, air $3.3.10 per capita. The budget in 1926 was 82,21:3,223, air $77.65 per Capita. The valuation in 1916 was 21,301,802, and in 1026 was S42,668,2716. The tax rate in 1916 was S20.50, and in I{126 vitas $32M. Making an analysis of these figures, it is evidont that our valuation has increased one hundred per cent, whilo our budget and our debt leas in ceased `tour hundred per cent. It is evident, tbeTefore, that we have lane» able to keep our tax rate design only because \�\e have, constantly added to our bonded ind€:lAcd- ness. It aloes not require that a. person should be skilled in finance to realize that we are travelling on the wrong road, nor that sooner nr later we must coma to an understanding of our position. Unless we stop our expcnditurc;s or find new means of increasing our valuation, we must increase our tax rate.. We must admit that ratmicipa.lities, life their people, pay more for everything they buy than they died back in 1916, and because our eniployees must pay niore for the necessaries of life and the luxuries, it has been necessary to increase salaries, -d- though in some cases the increue has out-distanced the amounts needed to maintain the standards of 1916. Muc}7 cf our increase has been clue to permanent irnprove- nients. lVe have practically rebuilt our entire school svystexn in the last ten years, and while we had a right to expect that we would have a relief from this expense, it is apparent that the end is not yet here. 80 FUNTANCE COMMITTEE REPORT € 1 We are far ahead of any conununity in the building of streets under the Betterment Act, and none can deny that modern roads are business assets of ,great value. Our drainage and sever system is unequaled by any other cornmunity. But, this rising cost of municipal governr7ent is naturally a matter of great concern, and the question arises as to whal�er we can find better and more efficient- methods of carryring on our activities, rather than to abandon any of the t1iings which we are doing today, or by lowering any of the standards wbieh we have: already created. One of the most promising methods to incrtase our income is by bringing industrial businesses to Watertown, for there is a verb large amount of land available; for this purpose; but it is an evident fact that there cannot be much encoura enient to industry, nor to our citizens generally, if the burden of local property is const.-titly to be increased for the purpose of paying the expenses of increasing municipal activities. ire are at the paint where~ we should. Faust to take account of stack. We have bound ourselves to pay a debt of two million dollars in the next fifteen years„ with a staggering amount of interest. The dollar of tomorrow will be no more easily raised than the dollar of today, and we have bound ourselves Mth a very scrious burden for the next fifteen years. In view of these ftrcts, it s+eerns that now is a seasonable time to retrench, and to insist that what we cannot afford to pay for we cannot afford to have, for to my mind, the practice of municipal economy and the insistence upon its rigid and drastic enforcement is an absolute necessity„ not alone for Watertown, but for the entire country. The high tax rates is one of the causes of the driving out of New England of many of our induRtries. -Municipal government is a big business, much bigger than ever before, and what it is costing the citizen is suggestive of mating it a better business, and to the calling to its standards of Citizens qualified to help, and of maldric, the necessary sac- rifices for this patriotic purpose. If we can keep in the eye of our citizenship the fact that it cost us seventy-six dollars per capita to operate our business last year, something will have been done to promote a demand that tliese expenditures bo 82 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT placed in hands of competent men, well qualified to receive a full dollar in value for each one spurt — a condition wbieh we are far from accomplishing at present. If this indifference con- tinues, I hesitate to predict the future of this community. What we need is more efficiency, with a determined desire to spend money- of the ToANm as one would spend his own. For one, I continue in the belief that a representative assembly is the hest means ever devised to determine the will of the; people in the matter of policy. However, I am lcd, to temper that belief with the insistence that this assembly should be composed of the best qualified people of the Mmmunity. — n-ien or women who are qualified to pass Pdgment upon facts presented to them without being swayed in their decision by sympathy, or by the illogical arguments of certain members of the assembly r-�=ho have an tiiLlterior ob5ect in view, or who May even be recoMng compensation for their efforts, as has been e,,-idenced in past Town Mcethigs. If we cannot see the necessity of such service, then citizenship has indeed fallen to a low level. It is Unfortunate that the people mill not see that inunicipal business is their lousiness, and th-at every permy spent must be raised by tares, and that they pay the Umes. Onc's faith in the judginent of the Twvn Meeting is sbaken when he sees a body swayed, as was the Town Meeting last year, by men w-ho advanced the wealest of arguments, and appealed to the sympathies of the iiie hers into platting over appropria- tions which were absolutely unwarranted, and yet, %vhe a they had attained their selfish pwj) uses, used that verb, argument in advocating a city Pori» of government, alleging that the Town electing was incompetent to pass upon questions either of expenditure or of policy. Every elected official is busily engaged in increasing Dur expense, either by addirig individuals to the pay-roll, or by in- creasing salaries. ''floe selectmen are they executive officials of the Town, and they mitst assul-ne the responsibility of carry-ing out the policy of the Town, �irith its necessary expense. Their entire efforts should be governed by thc� tnecessity of econromyr, and their achievements should be qualified by this outstanding necessity. Yet 3i-e find the selectmen this year rcconimending increases in salary to pUIctically every worker in the Town FINANCE COMMITTEE EtE PORT 83 Hall, recommending the creation of eight new pos Lions in the Totem, and, in addition, that ninety thousand dollars be spent on Betterment streets, a sum more than double any stun we have ever spent for this purpose in one year. To rnyT mind, this is a plain ease of playing politics, in their endeavor to satisfy everybody, and placing the odium of "failing to recommend" upon the Finance CenurAtee. ��e cannot continue to pile tip obligations in a municipal way, and still be happy when our tax bills tire presented. It should be our duty to discover where we may sage. Education is our greatest expense, and the members of the School Com- mittee should have the special qualifications of either behig versed in educational Matters, or in business administration; vet neither of these seem to be a qualif cation in the minds of ourcaadichates. I belie?ve that our schools, botli in their building and izi their operation, are altogether too expensive. We are spreading our education over too broad a field, and our children are taught too much of the pears of education, and Imow too little of the valleys. I believe that it is tune that we had an educational stu-vey° of the Watertown schools, to see whether or not we are conserving our money in this respect. Although the American people have faith in their public schools, the cost has become so great that approval of continued expansion in courses of study is not by any means unanimous. "There should be an insistent d,enzand for the lundatncntal prin- ciples of good business management in the administration of the entire school system. It may be that while the tax payers are ready Land willing to pays the annual bills, they should only be aske-d to approve any increase if they can be assured that their money is being wisely and econornica.11y spent. May I venture to predict that unless the cost of education is-more reasonably governed Ili 1Vlassachusetts, that , itbin ten years -wc Nvill find ourselves paying a direct school Lax.. Other departments must be watched just as carefatlly. 'rho police department may increase your expense indefinitely by additions, -without limit, of traffic officers at every confer and at every school and meeting place, and maintai dng it tD be a question of public exigency. The fire department may acid to our expense by the addition of motor apparatus �N7th men to 84 WATERTOWN TOWN REPoRT operate thern, and for expensive housing. The ptiblic jvc)rlcs department offers abundant chanecs, to pay political promises by the eniploynientGf unnecessary labor and equipment. Our teachers are now boing paid as high or higher than the average. We are paying our laborers as mitch as is bciTig paid anywhere in the state, and we are extending to them over- time rates, and aftemoons and hGlidays off not granted by many other communities. Wc arc maintaining the highest paid police and fire departments in the state, and all the-se salaries are apparently fixed for all tune, for it would be an adventuresome spirit indeed who would predict that these may ever be reduced.- It is well to remember that of all expenditures, practically 80 per cent is for labor or services. Gentlemen, you have now completed your hearings , and Dave made such tecornmendations as you believe wise and lust. It is unfortunate that these who will finally pass upon this budget, and by doing so, set the tax rate, have nat been as fortunate as have you in hearing all the arguments presented by the various department heads. Although all Finance, Com- mittee hearings are public hearings, our citizenship apparently does not care to be enlightened, a fact which I very much regret. C. F. SANBORN, Chairman.

OTIS D. ALL EN, Town Enginecy REPORT OF THE PLANKING BOARD FOR THE YEAR 1927 The chief activities of the Planning Board hav, heen in con- nection -w ith the 'Zoning Icy-Law. A hearing was held on Feb- nary 24 on petition of Otto A. Theurer. iNfr. Theurer owned fh,e hundred seventy feet of frontage on Main Street between Onkla.nd Street and Rosedale Terrace, and desired to have it changed from a 3C district, which i5 a two-family residence, to a 2B district., which is a business district. A large number were present at the hearing �%rith argruinents pro and con. The Planning Board did not deem it wise to change a part of the district until such: time as it would be proper to change all of Main Street from residence to business, The majority of the arguments of the hearing were in favor of the status quo, The Planning Beard decided to recommend to the Town il-leeting that the change be not made at this time. The Town. Meeting sustained the recorninendation of the Board. A hearing w.as held A1ay 20 on the petition of Charles D. Murdock, el al., for the change of the land at the southeast corner of Watertown Street and Nf orse Street for one hundred feet northeasterly -on NNTatertown Street, and sixty-six feet southeasterly on Morse Street from a 3C or two-family resi- dence, to a 2B district, or business district. The petitioners were the only ones present, and presented a. petition signed by most of the nearby owners with a report that those not siguing would not appose this petition. There was no opposition to the change. The Planrdng Board voted to recommend the change to the Town Meeting, which sustained the recotnnnendartion of the Board. A hearing was field on November 25 on the petition of the Thom-as Dalby Company to change their property on Morse Street from a 3C or two-farnily residence, to a 1A, which is manufacturing. This petition called for a very extreme change in the zoning law as applied to this property, as they asked to have the land changed froin a residential district to an unre- stricted district. The Thomas Dalby Company was an old and 129 130 NV_-VrEWf0 N TOWN REPORT well-known Watertown institution; it celebrated its seventy- fifth year of existence in 1927. As its property was zoned, them ,v,fias no way it could enlarge its buildings tocare for its increasing business. Part of the business was carried on at the L. C. Chase mill which was quite a distance from the factory and so increased the expense of manufacturing and the cost of management. Competition and the present difficulties of the textile industry make necessary that all cost of production be reduced to a inini- mum. The case of the mnipany was presented at this hearing by their Secretary. No one appeared in opposition to the peti- tion. The Board gated to recommend to the Town Meeting; that the change be made, The Town Nleeting approved this recommendation. Several requests were made dwing the year to the Board for interpretation of the Zoning By-Law as regards new con- struction, and additions and changes in present buildings. Most caf these were dismissed as being in conflict with tile: Zon- ing By-Law. In December, 1924, and the early part of 1925, the Planning Board held a :series of conferences v6tli the New England Tele- phone and Telegraph Company and the State Board of Public. Utilities on the subject of a telephone exchange with a separate designation for Watertown users of the telephone. 'Watertown was the name desired. This name did not conflict with any other them in use for dialing ixi machine sivitching. The Tele- phone Company stated it was against their policy to use town names for e.;ehange names, and that they were discontinuing town names already in use, and so could iaot consider the name Watertown, but offered ikliddlesex as a substitute. A separato exchange under the name of Middlesex could have been given Watertown to start in the mid-suinnier directory of 1925, except for the opposition of one of the local papers and scvcral organiza- tions who have since takcii a good deal of credit to themselves for the new Middlesex exchange. The benefit of the new name might have been enjoyed two and one-half years earlier, as the following letter will Shaw: REPORT OF PLANNING BOARD 131 "Brookline, Mass., 'Alarch 18, 1925, 111r. Nils H. Larsen, Cliairinan, Watertown Planning Board, 41 Alt. Vernon Street, Boston, Massachusetts. Dear Sir: Since receiving the letter from the IVatertown. Planning Board can llarch 13 canning the approval of the Board to establish a Central Office, designation for the subscrib- ers within the municipality of 'Watertown, considerable opposi- tion has come to rny notice from business nien in "Fatertown die to the fact that as it was in1possible to use the erne "Water- town," it was not desired, to change to any other name in plane of "Newton North." This also confirms xny understanding with you this morning that we shall tale no further steps in the matter of changing the Central Office name unless a satisfactory assurance is given us that it is the desire of the Watertuwn sabscribers to change from "Newton forth" to the Fume "A'liddlesex". For your infonnation 1 have received a letter expressing the consensus of opinion of the members of the Rotary Club of Watertown and also from the Hood Rubber Company, that if the name "Watcrtawn" cannot be used they desire to continue our present arrangement.. I have also canvassed some business subscribers and find the sentbiaent to be against the proposed change. Y"ours very truly, H. L. SANBORlN, District H.L.S.: B. 132 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT In two years the eyes of the country-v zll turn toward Massa- chusetts and its celebration of the three hundredth anniNrersary of the founding of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Massa- chusetts Bay towns in 1930 will be the mecca o[ former New Ent lariders and their descendants. Watertoxvn has been spe- cific Illy mentioned by the Massachusetts Bay celebration com- mitter- as a fitting cog in the general celebration. An unique idea bas been proposed that instead of the over-worked World's Fair, that each corami-i iity should make a. real, li,,ping, natural display of its cultural, historical, educational, industrial and recreational resources. This is the opportunity to advertise Watertc,�% —rich in historical lore, a large producer in industry, a leather in the education of the blind, and unique in recreational possibilities in the little-used Charles River basin. Will Wa.tcr- town rise to the occasion and stand with Massachusetts in the 1930 celebration? "Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir nien's blood, and probably themselves Neill not be realiacd. Make big pkns; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a nobler logical diagrarn once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing intensity. Remember that our sans and grandsons are going; to do tbings that would stagger us. Let your watchword. be Order, and your beacon Beauty." Respectfully submitted. WILLIAM W. RUGG, Chairman.

To the ff'atertown Playground Commission. Genll ien: f herewith respectfully submit the report of the SuperintDrident of Playgrounds for the year ending December 31, 1927. The Bathing Beach on the Charles River Boulevard opened Monday, June 27, and closed on Saturday, September 10. The amlual Swimming Carnival was held Saturday, Sep- tember 3. The four playgrounds opened on Tuesday, July 5, and closed on Friday, September 2. The annual playgromid demonstration was held at 'Victory Field on Wednesday, August 31. Activities The special feature of this Fear's program was the orga7wza- tion of inter-playground games for girls. The girls on all the playgrounds participated in baseball, bat; lull and trade. 'these inter-playground ga:nics were played on Friday. About two hundred gills between the ages of twelve and fifteen years competed each wQelc. Other activities for girls included basketry, sung, soap carving; and molding, story telling, and citizenship. Three baseball leagues Nvere organized for the boys. The Midget Lc ague, for boys ten years old and under, was very popular and caused much enthusiasm when the games ivere. played. Track meets were Meld every two weeks, while checker, quoit and basketball tournaments were held each month. Improvements Coolidge Playgrounds. New safety equipment was in- stalled, including svrdngs, slides and see-saws and ocean wave. 134 REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF PLAYGROUNDS 135 A new summer-house with sand loxes was built for the small children. Hosmer Playgrounds. Six new swings and a baseball hack stop were erected. Parker Playground. '"rater pipe has been laid for a drinking fountain which will be installed in the Spring. Bathing Beach. Two new bath houses were built at the Swine ing Beach, replacing the old portable houses -which are now used as storehouses. These Douses are tvnce as large as the others, and have private lockers for men and women. On account of the sewerage conditions at this location, it was impossible to install shower baths and toilets as planned. (Morney returned. See Auditor's Report.) The dangerous stones were removed from the river bed and the beach was sanded. Recommendations I would recornmencl to the Conilnission that a playground be opened in West Watertown; that the surface one the corner of Mt. Auburn and Arlington Streets be graded and fitted for a play area; and that land be secured for playground purposes in the north end of the Torn. f wish to thank the Selcetmea and the heads of the various departments for their cooperation during the year.

GentWnm: f here%�rith submit my report as Agent for the year ending December 31, 1027. Outside Aid This department renders aid to families who are not entitled to Mothers' Aid, and to individuals who fall into distress. The unsatisfactory conditions in many homes today make this c1� partment a very busy one. The shiftless husband and father whose only thought is to get something for nothing is one of otv great problems. All lion-support and desortion cases are referred to the ,police department before action is taken by this office. The child who would evade the responsibility of caring for his or her parent is beginning to realise that Watertown is not, particularly inviting at the present time. Drastic actim and constant vigilance must be exercised to beep the shiftless and the ingrate within bounds. During the year 1927, this department rendered aid to fifty families, totaling; three hundred nine persons. Nineteen children at institutions and six children in private homes in Watertown. Aid has been given to twenty adults in their own homes, four in institutions, and nine in hospitals. Unlike lothers' Aid, there is no reimbursement for aid given by this department unless the person or family has a settlement in another torn or city. If the applicant is unsettled the re- sponsibility is assuined by the Comtnamea.lth. The original appropriation was inadequate to meet the needs of this department, consequently an additional sun of six thousand, five hundred dollars was given at the Town Meeting in December. It is estimated that the unpaid bills will be over twelve hundred dollars. Thanksgiving dinners were sent to many families by the Watertown Lodge of Elks, while the Christmas dinners were 136 REPORT OF BOARD 4F PUBLIC WELFARE 137 fundshed by the Watertown K. of C., Rotary Club of Water- to,�%-n, and other organizations of Watertown. Through the kind generosity of the Watertown Lodge of Elks, inany children were given rubbers at Christmas time. These organizations deserve the thanks of the community for such a splendid spirit in bringing happiness to many homes. Respectfully subrnjtted, JOHN J. STANTON, Agent. Watertown, Mass. To the Board of Public Welfare. Gesdler wn: I herewith submit my report as Agent for the ye,ar endill-g December 31, 1927. Mothers' Aid During the year of 1927, the Mothers' Aid Department rendered aid to twentyr-Six, families, totaling one hundred fifty- five persons. This department is under the supervision of the Commonw-calth, and provides for the widows and their families. This aid is also furnished to families where permanent illness prevents the father from providing for his family. It is the policy of this department to give the mothers every assistance in the bringing up of their children. Mothers of families con- sisting of two or three children of school age are expected to obtain part-tine work while the children are attending school at present six mothers are working on this schedule. Inasmuch as these case ,are of a permanent nature, the majority of mothers are given a weekly cash allowance, varying from ten dollars to twenty dollars, to care for the needs of their families. In some cases, however, we feel obliged to limit the, amount of cash given. Although everything; passible is done for their welfare, it is discotwagfng to see how unappreciative sonne children are when they arrive at the working age, as ivell as the reluctance of some mothers to insist upon the child bearing his proportion of the family expenses. The entire expense of nine families receiving aid from this department is chargeable to other towns. The Commonwealth reimburses this town onc--third of the expense of the cases having Watertown settlements. 138 WATERTO] %"N TOWN REPORT Every family under jurisdictican of this department received a Thanksgiving runner from the Watert€wn Lodge of Elks. The Christmas dinners were furnished by the W.aterto--n K. of C., Rotary Club of Watertown, and various ether organizations. The appropriation for this department '7as sufficient to cover the wants for the year of 11127. Respectfully submitted, REPORT OF INFIRMARY DEPARTMENT To Ike Honorable Board of Pvbhc Welfare. Gen.tIonew I respectfully submit the following report as keeper of the Infirnr}r for the year ending December 31, 1927, By an Act, of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, ap- proved April 5, 1927, and effective Jule 5, 1927„ the statutory name of Almshouse was clanged to Infirmary. "Chapter 203 An Act Changing the statutory nalne of Almshouses to Infirmaries. Be it enacted as follows Section L The General Laws are hereby amended by string out chapter forty-seven„ including the title thereof, and inserting in place thereof the following: . Chapter 41, IhFIRIMARIES Section 1. Any to-%N n may erect or provide and maintain an infmary for persons M need, etc. Section II.

Conditions here remain practically the same as last year, all of our inmates needing constant care and attention, one man being very feeble, most of the others are more or less crippled. Some exercise a little but none are able to perform any manual labor. There were eight inmates at the belrinriing of.the year and eight at the close. The whole number of innia.tes has hcen sixteen, an increase over the previous year of three; the largest nurnber at one time, thirteen, smallest, seven, the average number, nine. One inmate died, one was removed to Waltham. 139 140 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Hospital, ono left the State, three were placed in care of rela- tives, and two went to work.

Minor repairs were made to the interior, such as repairs to ceilings, plwnbing, etc.; weather strips w.ere installed in nine i, indows and two dears, and other Nvindows were glazed and repaired. I would recommend Llya.t the infinnary and, shed be given two coats of paint; than necessary repairs be made in connection therewith, such as new gutters, blinds, etc.; and that the sun of S800 be appropriated for the same.

Deport of Committee on the laying out and development of land adjacent to, but not set aside for the new James Russell Lovell School, w-as presented by the Chairnnan, Edward F. Wright, as follows: Report of Committee of Seven appullited by TKoderator orz January 12, 1927, to report at the next Annual Town 1,Ieeti n ti as to the laying, out and development of the six acre` of land adjacent to, but not set aside for the np-iv James Russell Lowell School, in accordance with vote passed at Tarn fleeting held on December 22, 1926, .under Article G, The question for the voters of �- a,tertown to decide is whether or not Watertown will retain the northerly section of the. Almshoase Lot, so-called. This committee has autlhority to rocom-niend an the Laying out and development of that section of the Almshouse loot lying north of Lowell Avenne. f WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Your Committee reports as follows: That no action should be taken in the layout and develop- Tent of this property at this time, for the reason that, it lags been the experience of g o%%ring municipalities that as a result of developments, such as have been ,going an in Watertown, that when thev deckle to develop playgrounds, it has been accessary to purchase developed property and raze buildings in order to develop their purposes. Inasi-nuch as Watertown is very fortunake in owning, a number of acres of vacant land in this scetion, considering the tremendous development in this part of the town, there is no doubt in the minds of the committce that there will be a den and for the use of this land for other than, playground puij3osc.s, ''victory Field, so-called, at present and no doubt it will be used. in the future by pupils of the upper school grades, and thcrQ is no area set aside for the children of the primary grades. We consider that the to-wii is very- fortunate in Having this , vacant; are.n. adjacent to a school buil&ig, that the pupils mill be able to exercise and get fresh air during the recess pr riods and after school hours. The interest on the amount of money that would be received from the sale of this property is very small as compared with the advantages offered to the pupils of the town by holding this land for playground purposes. If this properly were scold and developed, the income re-- ceived from taxes would more than be eaten up by the cast to the town for public street inip mveTnents, such as sewer, &ain- age and water, cost to maintain streets after development and the cost to educate the children who watild naturally conic to live in this development. It iIli,,ht be said that perhaps it is not a goad pnlicy to hinder or retard progress, but can the ether hand, the reasons otlered in the previous paragraph on the playground question should bear some..eight, 'therefore, your (Committee mcomi-riends that, the town ret;alu the ownership of this property for future development along the: litres suggested. Rcspcetfully stibmitted, EDIAVARD F. AY-RIGHT, C;ha rinan of[;onznl� iftce. RMORD OF TOWN MEETINGS 167 A minority report of this Committee was presentecl by Percy T. Spragme as follaws: Report of Committee of Seven appointed by Nloderat<or on January 12, 11927, to report at the next Annual "Town Meet as to the l%ing out and development of the s.� acres of land adjacent to, but not set aside for the new fames Russcll Lowell School, in accordance with voice passed at Tawn N-Teeting held on December 22, 1926, under Article G. The question for the voters of �Vatertown to decide is whetber or not Watertown mill retain the northerly section of the Almshouse Lot, so-called... This Committee has autburity to recornmend on the laying out and development of that section of the Almshouse Lot, lyirng north of Lowell Avenue,, which section will be hereinafter referred to as "the land.' The miliority member of the Committee reports as follo-ws: The Iand is about 400 feet in the line East and West and 700 feet in the line north and south, containing approximately 280,000 square feet of land, being appro-.dinately one-half of tine-entire Almshouse Lot so-called. The southerly halt of said Almshouse I.ot is now accupied by the new James Russell Low-ell School ,Ind the Almshouse. The land could be sub divided into about 45 building lots, containing about .5,000 feet each. Streets could be linked in with Bailey Toad, Wilson Avenue, Channing Road and Lowell Avenue, nia.lmig a eery economical layout. The Committee estiruates that these lots vrould be worth apprexinvately $1000 each, after streets had been brought to sub-grrade. The east to sul -gradc would be appro.r neat ely 86,000, Carrying expenses of such a development; would be approximately S 10,000, so that the figures grouped would be as follows: Cost to Purchaser S24,000 Street Construction and Development 6.000 C,arr3-ing Charges I(),()()() Profit 5,000 Sake Price of Lots $45,000 5,000 45,000 168 WILTERTOWN TCIY'4\' REPORT The 'Minority Member of the Committee recornmends fliat the 'Town should sell the land for the following reasons. First, the placing of -noti-taxable land into the taxable Class, Xvith a possibility of inemsirig the taxable w-iluation of the Town. in a period of two years by S360,000; second, gain of interest on the sale price amounting to S1,200 a year; third, the promc)ting of home ownership M' Watertown; fourth, that 42 per cent of the area of Watertown today is tax-exempt property, and that this is as large a porportion as any coniniuiiity of the United States; fifth, that in vtieiv of the fact that the A-1 et-ropoll tail Park Con mission land holdings extend the entire length of the Town, it is time for Watertown to begin to draw in on her public holdings, especially on the laud under consideration, since the Town already holds twenty-five or thirty acres directly across the street, and that there is still plenty of vacant hand and land with inexpensive buildings thereon, which may be taken over by the Town for public purposes under the -rir,,ht of en-iiaent dornain, at a lower pnice than the present price, plus the can)ring charge; vacant land doubles in cost to the owner every eight years, Respectfully submitted, P. T. SPRAGUE, Minority Member. Article 4. To grant such sums of money as may be thought necessary for the uses and ex enses of the Town for the ensuing; expenses year, direct how the same shall be raised, or take any action relating thereto.

Doherty resigned from the depart- ment on N ovembor 29, 1927. Francis J. Powers, wagonman and cleric, resigned from the. department on May 15, 1027. James J. Burke was appointed wagom-naii and clerk on Malay 20, 1927. Crime Dtzri lg the year the numbar of arrests because of violation laws has been reduced to 991. This represents a reduction of 10S in comparison with 1926, and 447 when compared with 1925. A reduction. of over thirty per cent in number of arrests in two years is a commendable record. REPORT OF CHTUF 01: POLICE 363 A slight increase is noted in cases of brealdng and enuring and ether offenses of a snore serious nature, while arrests because of larceny have been substantially reduced. It is of interest, to note that arrests because of ,violation of laws pertaining to morality continue to be reduced, as do those due to violation o I automobile laws. .Arrests because of drunkenness have decreased from 369 in MO to 290 in the past year. At the same time violations of the liquor laws show an increased number of arrests. It is worthy of note that arrests among na0ve born persons has reduced, while the ratio has increased among the foreign- born population. As tho result of the decision of the Supreme Tudic al Cutirt in one of the t{3'4 n's larceny cases, the district atterney has suggested to the General Court the necessity of changing court procedure to permit courts to hear testimony in counties out- side cf their jurisdintion. Liquor Laws Considerable time and attention continues to be given to the enforcernent of the liquor laws, and the active o peration of the various agencies to this effect has been of much value to the department. The number of arrests of liquor violation during the year was fifty-three, an increase of nineteen over the previous year. Investigation of probable liquor violations re-- quires considerable time on the part of the officers, and many extra hours in additiGn to re�,ular duty have been utilized in investigations of this type. Trade But three fatal accidents because of the operation of auto- niobiles were reported during the year. Whilo the number of auturnobile accidents has shown a slight increase as compared ,.%7th 1926, this increase has been mainly its, minor accidents with no personal injury. So Ion; as the number of autoluo- bileo on the road continue to increase, minor accidents are bound to occur. '1'he traffic control towers in Watertown Square have oper- ated satisfactorily and have clitninatecl much of the traffic :364 IVATEIRTOWN TOWNr REPORT jam, especially during the evening rush hours. The assign- ment of regular officers to traffic duty at scbeolcrossings has continued to afford protection to the children on their way to and !rani school. Recommendations The Hudson touring car has been in operation for the past three years, and is now in such condition that a. new, car should be purcbascd, and the old machine turned in. During the past several years the policy of turning in the gold motorcycles has 'proven its econonw. It is suggested. that this policy be continued, and that the five nictorcycics be replaced with aew ones. It is suggested that a vault be built for the storage of li gilors and recovered articles. At the present time these materials are stored in the cells, cellar, garage, offices, and other rooms of the depa.rtnicnt. A vault for the storage of cotif'tscated articles could be built for a nominal =—=- Conclusions To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, the Justices, clerks, and Other officers of the. Ccurt, and the officers of the depart- mont, nay thanks are tendered for their advice and assistance. The thoughtful co5peratirn of the 'I'o-wn Physician has been of immense help in the handling of- accident and illness cases. Respectfully submitted, JOHN T. IVILMORE, Chief of Police. REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT December 31, 1927. To the Honorable Board of,Selectinen. Gentlemen I herewith submit the following report of the Fire Depa.rtrr,ent for the year ending December 31, 1927, The membership of the Department consists of thirty-nine (39) classed as follows; One (1) permanent chief; two (2) pennaneirt captains; two (2) permanent lieutenants; one (1) call captain; cne (1) call lieutenant; one (1) niechazucia.n; thirty-one (31) permanent ladder and hosernen. Four additional permanent raen were added to the Depart- ment April 15. With the addition of these men the manual farce of the department was so strengthened that we can now handle the present equipment mare efficiently. Alarms and Fires The Department responded to a total of .374 alarms for various causes; 248 of which were still alarms and 126 were bell alarms, 'phis sbows but -in increase of one alarm over the preN-ions year, but is still a high figure considering the unusual amount cf fire prevention work done, a special effort having been made to reduce alarms and lasses. From IMarch 16 to December 31 eighteen false alarms were sounded, by far mare than any previous year. Fire lasses were reduced over 1926. Factories unpro- tected by automatic sprinklers provided our greatest losses, Out of our total loss of %3,02 M, mv-er t120,000 covered seven factory fires. The largest individual dwelling house lass was 154,083. All fires werc confined to place of origin, and 1 believe the total lass for the town low, considering the towns growth and added risks. The detail of losses given below includes automobiles in transit. The uninsured loss was Sl X 9. 365 3[i6 WATERTOWN TOWN EEPORT Insurance Values Losses Ins-zf.rance Paid Buildings 'SJ46,464 35$2(3,649 88 $515,4O2 00 20,044 88 Contents 432,496 72 17,279 97 393,844 00 16,805 07 Totals $978,961 07 $43,929 85 $909,246 00$42,850 85 Record of Alarms and Losses for the Past Fifteen Years A larins .Lasses 113 128 821,871 00 1014 112 2.5,133 00 1915 154 21,534 00 1016 130 24,753 00 1O1.7 131 46,181 00 1018 203 20,136 00 NIS) 158 40,735 00 1921 214 99,757 00 1022 A) 5 16,036 00 1923 284 18,336 00 1924 308 104,567 00 W25 301 20,349 00 1926 373 116,67O 63 1927 374 43,929 85 During the year our first motor ladder truer purchased hi 1015 was thoroughly overhauled, and is now in first-class condition; is unniannerl, but, +used as spare and on second alarms by the platoon off duty. foam generator has been added to our equipment, and where used, pToved its worth. One thousand feet of hose was purchased during the year, which together with the amount of hose on hand should be sufficient for the coming year, In order to beep the appropriation down to the mit-di- gun, but one item extra outside the regular running expenses is asked for MS. During 1927 the -rater pressure in the west part of the '1 ovm has been greatly rediice:d, caused by our source: of supply being changed. The result of this is that we RrI,POR1` or FIRX DT--.FART.MENT 367 must resort to pumps, wherewe fo=erly used hydrant streams. This, together with our growth, means we must provide larger pumping units. The condition of our first motor pump of 450 gallons capacity purchased in 1917 is now such that it is unreliable., and I do not believe it advisable to upend any money overhauling this job. Neither do I feel safe to continue with it in its present condition. I recom- mend an appropriation. of $12,500 for the purchase of a 730-gallon triple combination. I recommend that serious considermion be given to pro- N-iding fire protection for the north Dart of the Town. This is a rapidly growing residential section, in need of protection located in the district. At least a committee shoiald be ap- pointed to select a site for a fire station and report in the near future.. I recommend that the police of renewing all old fire alarm boxes be continued this year. I also recornmend that the fire alann be placed underground on IMain Street from its present location to the Waltham line in order that a mutual aid plan may be arranged with the city of 'Wralthatn. This additional protection, after the wires are installed, is no expense to the tovrn, and it is bard to estimate the value we receive. I can only point to the cooperation we now have with Newton aad Belmont by this arrargernent. The city of Waltham has the wires to our town line f+ar the past two Fears, wait,tlig to give its assistance. Fire prevention work and inspection has been continued by the rnen off duty, inany hours tieing given freely to this work. We continue to receive excellent cobperation from the citizens. Members of the Department have responded to 76 per cent of all alarms while off duty—an excellent record. To our neighbo ng cities and town, in behalf of the Town, I express thanks for their assistance. To your Honorable Board, members of the Department, and citizens, I extend my grateful appreciation for your assistance and co6peration. Respectfully submitted, JOHN W. OTIE-,�-R-, Chief of Fare DeparMieW. REPORT OF THE WIRE DEPARTMENT Watertown, L%l ass,, January 16, 1'l2 8. To the Ho;iox able Board of Soleclxvc?t. 'entleinen.: The report of the Inspector of Poles and Wires for the year ending December 31, 1027, is herewith submitted. New circular loom cable was run hi Mt. Auburn Street between Upland Road and Prentiss Street. The old bare wires which were removed, were dumped. We also ran circular loony cable in Nichols Avenue., between Arlington Street and the gate of the Rood Rubber Company at the corner of Bigelow Avenue. We cut over four fire alarm boxes from No, 4 circuit and put them can the No. 1 circuit. This was done to make MOM for new bastes in the No. 4 circuit. I installed one tapper which -vas connected with the No. 1 circuit at the Engine Two Douse, in order that dais Station could get the alarm from the No. 1 tapper if the No. 4 circuit should be out of commission. I also installed i.s}=fl reisterin niaahinc at firel�eaduartcrs. All the com7ections and wing for this installation were rid id conduit construction. Fifteen old fire alarm boxes.vere replaced; ten for the Town, and five for private concerns, Eleven more of the old fire alert boxes should be retired this year and modern boxes installed in their places. This could be done at a cost of 135 a box, as the Ganncivell Company wo dd allow the town fifteen dollars ( 15) on each cold box. Thirteen tappers were transferred to new locations, fire fire alarm boxes and one police box were transferred to nm1, Poles, The Edison -Electric Illuminating Conapa.ny set in new pales in many sections of the Town and reconstructed their lines, which necessitated the Wire Department installing new cross amis vrlto these pales, soad transferring wires to there. We installed eleven new fire alarm boxes in different sections of the Town, and two new police boxes; one in Pleasant Street and one in Bigelow Avenue. T °[? new tappers were installed, three fire alann undcrgaround pasts, and tErce under- ground cable pasts. 368 REPORT OF WIRE 17R.FAR'r: ENT 369 Underground cable and conduit was placed in Mt. Auburn, Street between Dailey Road and Upland Road, and comiections made at the intersecting streets. The underground cables were cut over and the overhead wires removed. Any of this wire which NY,as suitable for use we used for tapper lines. We placed underground conduit across Beacon Square to the Tmfhc Stand, and moved the fire alarm tapper on to the booth. On account of the removal of the street railway tracks in Watertown Square, we were obliged to run a tine of No. 6 copper- wire from Alt. Auburn Street on the signal poles along the Boston & 11°faine Railroad track, part *a,y through Gross Street and part way underground, into thc, battery room at the Engine House. This was wade I had not figured on, but was obliged ed to do it when the Boston 8-, Arliddlesex Railway Cainpany removed their track-s. Consequently part of the work which we had plaiamed to do we were obliged to held over. We timed all the fire alarm boxes to two seconds. The time had been two and erne-half seconds. All the fire ala-mi boxes were cleaned and tested frequently, and the fire alarm and police signal systems Dept in good running order. The fire alaiin and police boxes were also painted. The new Vfhlte truelc supplied the department in 1927, greatly facilitated the work of the Department. Interior NNnring incrcas+ed again this rear. The work of the Wire Departi-nent has, of course, increased with the growth of the Town. The office ivory is constantly growing heavier, and the Wire Department should have the.services of a full tine clerk, so that the records of the nfhce night be kept as they should. If a charge were made for permits and inspections this part of the work of the Department -woukl be self-sup- portixxg. The underground system should be extended this year can illain Street, from Howard Street to the Waltham line. This -,would improve the fire and police signal systems and enable these two important departments to Dive better service to the Town. I would again call your attci3tioil to the fact that the Town has greatly outgrown the present fire alarm headquarters at the Ezi;ine House. By building a fire-proof house, properly 370 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT equipped, the Town would be guarding against catastrophe, and following an example -which has been set by Belmont and Brookline. This important matter should be giti.en attention by the flown. Government. The street lights of the 'Town received careful attention. The new lights ordered in by your Honorable Board were- located by ine so that the streets should be preperly lighted and the abutters satisfied. All notifications that the street lights were not burning were given prompt attention., and the EdisDn Company immediately notified. All burned out or broken lamps were promptly replaced. I v6sh to thank the Board of Selectmen for the spleliclid cooperation they have given me in the work of the Department. I also ii- ish to express my appi-eciat on for the assistance which the heads of the various Departments gave me when I was installing the underground work in Mt. Auburn Street. My thanits are also date the Game-well Cornpany, the Edison Electric Illuminating Company and the New England 'Tele- graph & Telephone Company for the assistance they so freely and gratuitously gave me t Ming the year.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE MOTH DEPARTMENT NNI-atertown, Alass., January 16, 192$, To Site Haiiarabk, Board of Selectmen. Gentlewen The report of the Superintendent of the Ailoth Department for the year ending December 31., 1927, is hereNvith submitted. % The work of suppressing the LryTsy and browntail moths was carried on in the customary manner in 1927. The fall and reinter work was carefully clone, and in the: spru'l, when the trees were in foliage, they Nvcre thoroughly sprayed, We have very few browntail inoths at the present time, but there is still quite an infestation of gypsy rn.caths. The satin math also continues to cause considerable trouble. The only method of srippressing this moth is by spraying the foliage. In order not to lose the bernefit of previous years' work it is essential to keep the trees in goad condition, and this can only he done by constant attention. If the work is ne- glected for a season it will surely mean a much greater outlay in the future. f recommend an appropiiatioa of $4,100 for labor and maintenance for the moth work for the year 1928. Respectfully submitted, JOHN C. FORD, Svperhrfej2deid of Moth Departs e il. 375 REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN Watertown, Mass., January 10, 1928. To Me Honorable Board of Sclectiven. Gentlenien.. The report of the Tree Warden for the year ending December 31, 1027 is herewith submitted. The work of the department for the past year has been the pruring and removal of trees, and setting out new trees. A great deal of necessary pruning;was done, and a number of trees which were a mcnace to public safety were removed. In the work of pr nbig the trees the department received excellent co6peration front the Edison Electric Illurr3 nating Company. Considerable pruning yet remains to be done, in order to beep the trees in good condition and promote new growth. On the request of abutters a great many new trees were sot out, and trees which had died, or not made satisfactory growth, were Mplaced. We have now can fife a number of applications for new trees -which the abutters wish sett out in MS, and the list is steadily groi%ring. The nc-w building de- velopments in the Town cause an increase in the demand for new trees, and to meet this demand an appropriation of $1000 should be made to cover the purchase and care of new trees. It will be necessary in 1928 to prude a great many street trees, and a number of street trees should be removed. I recommend an appropriation of $6,500 for the entire work of the Tree Warden Department for the ensuing year. Respectfully submitted, JOHN C. FORD, Free 1,17ardat. 76 -R—E 4 T OF FATS COMMISSIONERS W!dLVtD111M, :Ilass., January 15, 1928. To the Citizens of U,atertown The Park Commission respectfully submits its report for the year ending December 31, 1927. The usual care and attention has been given to the several parks, deft cs and play areas Avithin our jurisdiction. The extromely wet season necessitated inuch additional labor in the cutting of grass, thereby using money needed for other purposes. For this reason the tree work was reduced to a mininiu n. One of the trees in Saltonstall Park, being in a dangerous condition, was removed. In the near future much tree work will be necessary at Whitney Dill Park. The two tennis courts were resurfaced with clay, nciv nets and tapes installed, and the fence repaired. The benches at Saltonstall Park are in eery bad condition. Most of them will have to be removed this coating year. Two oxperimental benches ivere built and installod at this parr last summer. The beiichcs arc of bard wood constmiction through- out, but ma.y be duplicated in appearance by using concrete hosts and wooden slats. The Couinu ion has decided to standardize on the type represented by the two experimental benches; in this way making future repairs and replacements convenient and economical. It is planned. to install a nwnber of these benches eacli ycar until all parrs and deltas have suffi- cient number, according to public demand. At Victory Field the enclosure was enlarged scventy-- firve feet in length and twenty-one feet in width. The north and west fences were moved and linked up by one htuidred ninety-two feet of new fence. Most of the additional area had to be excavated and the whole levelled off. The field is still in an unfinished condition. Tentative plans have been made for the construction of a quarter-mile cinder track. The ultimate disposition of this plan lies %�ith the canting Town Meeting. If appropriation for the track is mfused, the new area will be 77 loamed over, seeded and rolled as saon as funds are available. {ether activities at Victory Field included the permanent mount- ing of a tern-Lan gun, the painting, of the fence and installation of two now gates. Skating su1-face can the outsidr field has been built up as usual. The problein of hockey playing is still with us. The 0. ice was built up mainly for the purpose of providing a safe place for children to slate, and hockey, whother organized or not, if played by larger boys and men, should be kept entirely separate from the general skating area. Ice hockey has become so popu- lar, considerable pressure is being brought to bear upon the conunission to provide a special rink for that purpose. Such a rink would solve the probleni of the safety of the smaller children, and the proper regulation of the game. We, therefore, are including an stern in this year's budget to cover the c€anstniction of a sectional rink enclosure. This enclosure can be stored in a small space during the suunrner months and easily set up at any point in the town when needed. At the June meeting the fonder town dump, bordered by .'ladoii Road, aGn6 Orchard Street, was transferred to the park department. This site is ideal for the development of a large baseball field, several teimis courts and parking space for auto- mobiles. As soon as possible a baseball diamoncl for the rise of the smaller children will be laid oat at the northern end of the field. A special apprespriation is being asked for the construc- tion of three tennis courts at the opposite end of the field. It is time some action was taken in regard to the so-called I�i Test End Playgmund. At the urge of a lar e number of West Watertown citizens there is an article in the Town Meeting calling for the transfer of this property to the park department. It is proposed to clean and level a portion of this area and the Burn of ene thousand dolla.is is being asked for that purpose. The natter of parks and areas for recreation and piny is being recognized as important, especially so by neighboring towns ,and cities. The importance of this is reflected in the budgets of these municipalities. Nearly every town or city compara- blo to Watertoi n in size or situation, spent a greater percentage of the total yearly budget on parks and public grounds. The town of Brooldino spelt about- 3.5170 of their REPORT OF PARK CGINIX-lISSI(}NERS 379 total budget on parks and public grounds in 1927. lVatertowa spent 0.35% for the same purposes. In the future )Lratertc iii shauld pay inure attention to means of keeping children off the streets. and at healthy form of recreation. This means not simply setting up a fev;* areas for play purposes, but intelligent development of the saute. Tennis, skating and hockey (ice hockey and field hockey for girls) are fast growing sports and need provision for. No dc)u'ht the future will see this town equipped i i.th adequate facilities for these and any other sports which may become reascana.bly popular. It is merely a question. of "When are you going to start?" Respectfully submitted, AR'I'`HUR L. MORSE, Claafrrr an. CARL E. WITHEE. JOT-TN W. DUVALL, Secretary.

ANNUAL REPORT OF ASSESSORS FOR 1927 The annual reports rendered to tbcc Town must of necessity be eery similar to those of the preceding years, the maili interest being the result of the work none by your Assessors as shown in the tax rats and valuation foimd in your tax. bill. This year the total valuation reached the sum of $47,0 4,409 making an increase of 80 6,133 above last year's valrtation, being divided as fellows: real estate 1,895,`,55, pensonal property 5,129,1.54. This reader the rate $31.50 per thousand, reducing the rate 50.50 as against that of last year. The prospect of new building to be found for the year 1925 is not as promising as in the past year, the peak of abnormal construction seems to have been reached, and we believe from now on the Town will have a steady nornial ,growth in resi- dential property, but will probably show an increase in business and factory construction for sonic time to conic. The Assessors have been greatly handicapped the last few years in not having plans of the Block System up to date. This past year it had reached the pohit where it was with great difficrjltyr that t1le lvorlc was collipleted. This has been corrected by the action of the special meeting appointing an Engineer to do this work, which has been done by a very compe- tent nian, and w c recommend that this work be continued se that the sectional plans may be brought up to date, and the work accumulated on Block flans. We soil vrish to emphasize the necessity of making your return can personal property. If this is dome it N611 avoid trouble both to the taxpayer and the. Assessors. Following this report will be found a form with instructions for filling nut returns. Respectfully submitted, - 11AAAAH BELL, E.DAVARD F. WRIGHT, E DAV'11\T L.

There were three or fonT instances where improvements its the sanitary con- ditions,were made after inspection and on advice of the inspector. The situation bi regard to dogs has caused more concern than usual. In co6peration with the police a number cf dogs suspected of being rabid were rounded tip and quarantined. e also quarantined a number of dogs that had been in contact with suspected rabid ani pals. No cases of rabies deNrelc7ped among the contact cases. Some twelve dogs were foiuzd to have rabies. The state-wide restraining order now in effect for ninety days•, should prove effective in eliminating all danger from Tabies for some time to come. While this restraining order has been inisunderstood to some extent, it is really all advantage to dog owners to observe it to the letter, and a majority of there have done so. I- rettim thanks to the various town officials and police officers for their eo6peration and courtesy. Respectfully submitted, F. T. McGLINCHEY, M.D.V., Cattle Inspector and Town Veterinarian.. 581 REPORT OF TOWN COUNSEL February 16, 192S. TD the Honorable Board of Select;nera. Gatdemen.

One. of our present school problems which by the wav is an ever present problem in a groving cornmTanity, is the school housing condition. The eastern end of the Toy i-L is cared for by the Coolidge, Hostner and East junior High `'Eklaorals. The Coolidge School is full, but there is a large basement, intended for a playrooni, which could he made into two very acceptable classrooms. A building; cormnittee on an addition of teal rooms to the. Ho,smicr School has been appointee), and we hope to be able to enter this in the fall of 1928. This kidition was very necessary, because at present there are 911 pupils in a building; built for a n:taxirnum of 800. There are eight}'-si yl�tpils from Riverton who go to the Hosine:r, Francis and Phillips Schools and bemuse of the sillall number of pupils in each rooni it seems impractical to place:; a school there. Ideal elementary classes should not have more than thirty- six: ptlpils. In our whole elementary system, ii, which -we have ninety-two classes, only thirty are classes of thirty-six or less. The East Junior High School will soon aced an addition for there are now 495 pupils in that bi1i1d n,!Z. For the fin- mediate future, however, the area served by the East junior High School may be reliever) somewhat by assigning some of it to the West Junior High School. The so-called "Central District" cared for by the Phillips and Francis Schools is not crowded and may relieve slightly the: James Russell Lowell School, if necesgary. The new James Russell Lowell School of twelve rooms now has e1e�,,en occupied by 412 pupils. Tlie south side of the Tovni is amply c,-ared for by the Parker School, in which there are now three vacant avows. di REPORT OF SC1100L-COMMITTEE 7 The Nest and northwest ends of the Torn are our next urgent problems. Children in the first three or four ,wades are ha-ving too long walks from upper Alain and Sycamore Street districts to our schools. The Main Street district is rapidly building up, and it is very essential that im necliately, before it is built on, a large tract of Iand in the neighborhood of Stuart Street should be taken for school purposcs and a unit of a twenty-room building started. No one can tell how rapidly a Town will grow, but a suburb of a Iarge city is almost certain to grow if it is accessible;. The West junior High School addition was entered in the fall of 1927. There is a general sentiment that the surrounding's of our school buildings, gradilig, etc., should have more prop-ipt at.teil- ticn than is now given them. The, lot at the ecrner of Tft. Auburn and Arlington Streets and the surroundings of the James Russell Lowell School should be made more attractive. A good innovation in the Senior Nigh School is the supervised study of the laupils trying to make the athletic tearns. The Cbmi- nan of the School Conu nittee wishes to thank calf in the system for their faithful, efficient service. It has been a pleasure to be associated and work vrith my fellow ehoc)l Committee, members. Respectfully submiacd, CIi1 ALES C. CHASE, M.D., C,a r:ion of the School Committee. REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT To the Scfwol Cmumillee: In accordance with your custom, I am submitting bomN�ith a report upon the condition of the scl ools for the year 1927. This is the nint;ioth in the series of School Committee ri ports, and the twentieth that has been Nvrkten by the present in- cumbent. The work of the schools has shown real progress without any :serious disu rbances. 'We have not loolmd about for innovations, but have sought rather tc) solidify what the have already undertaken. That the schools are n-ming smoothly should not, hom ever, be construed that 'we have no problems to solve, but such problems as we have serve as life to the organization. The Righ School One of the chief functions of any standard high school is proper preparation for collegc. The function of college prepara. ticri is very larger- determined by the control of higher educa- tion by privately endowed colleges and universities. Once, all schools of a secondary nature were called preparatory schools, the one consideration beiiig preparation for college. The public high school owes its creation and development to the protest against such a narra'%kY farm of education and sa restricted a, etirric.ulum. The cbl f echicational significance of a pubEc high school is its great response to the increasing demand that the school not; only be preparatory for life but, rather, that it is life itself, W atcrtowii has a large number of pupils who enter the high school each year with the worths- ambition for college entrance. Mr. '4 hitehill, principal of the High School, writes in hart as fol low{s: "The past year has been one of steady- progress wilh nothuig of a sensational character to report. The spirit of the school has been good. The record of attendance and puretuality has steadily improved, and then; leas been throughout the school a spirit of caaperation and interest. 8 our record in the College Entrance Board Examinations was very satisfactory, as all the exx—ainations for which Nve gave reconiniendations %were passed, and in Uvo-thirds of these con- ceming which there was same doubt, the candidates were suc- cessful. In connection Math college exaniimtians it may be well to put on record the two interesting clays, where representa- tives from seventeen New England Colleges were present to confer a ith our pupil: in regard to their college careem and to address the school as a whole on the values of higher education. ',re feel. that this experiment Avas vvell Nvorffiwbile and it cer- tainly showed a fine spirit on the part of the colleges in co-5per- ating towards this end. When the equipment of the building was under discussion,. there was some doubt in the minds of some members of the Building C oTninittee as to whether theme would be a, demand for the Industrial Arts Course, That question has been an- swered by the bays themselves, for there is tali increasingly large nuniber who are: interested in this work and who are finding it of real value in their- school life. We shall need, in the near future, more equipment and at least one moro teacher to meet the demand. I xvish Nve could, in some ways, cause the parents of our pupils to realize how much would be gained for their bags and girls if they would take an hour to call at the building, and consult ';v th the principal and teachers in regard to the work that is being done here. It is impossible for us to Asia the hornes of six hundred pupils, but there would be a great gain if each parent would talk time at sometime during the year to make a call on those who are carr*,Fing can the work of the school. I know of nothing that would make for progress more than this. The Junior High School A recent report from the Mate Department of Education sho-vvs the following facts in regard to the ntunber of junior high schools: Of the thirty-nine cities in Massachusetts, twenty-four have the junior high school organization. Of the seventy-mine towns with a population of over five thousand people, thirty-niale have this hype of orf;zinimtion. ID WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT In the towns and cities of over 5,000 population, there are appro-innately 125,000 pupils in gades seven, eight, and nine. Of this i-number S1l,000 are in school systems having; junior high schools. Many cities have more than one junior high school, and the total number of schools in the, state is about two hundred-, and it appears that nearly one-third of the pupils of junior high school grades are enrolled in such schools. Several ,rears ago Watertown committed itself to a junior high school program, Sizlce the fall of 1922 Watertowrt has been carrying on this type of organization. Its success is un- questioned, and the highest praise has been freely accorded by a host of visitors to the principals and teachers for its highly efficient organization and' administration.

The relation of the schools to present conditions is but dinih, understood by the majority- of people. Changes are resented by many who feel that the old meagre and fired curriculum, w-hich unce seen-ted adequate, is all that is required today- To them education means the leaming of facts regard- less of their antiquity, belief,,ing that the study which results in the acquisition of these facts is all-important. This idea is rapidly- gMng place to the cold but seldom followed belief that "education should prepare for complete living," and that educational obji;ctives and mr:11iods inust change to meet the new 0-imiging conditions of the life in which pupils must par- ticipate after lea-,ping school. Perhaps the most significant educational change is that. which places the emphasis upon the child rather than upon the subject matter. The needs of the individual now have first consideration, and our chief duty is to discover the educational possibilities of the child and thee, as wis(-,Iv as possible, detcr- min€; his needs on the basis of his probable achievement and his tiltimate life: aim. Inimstigation of school achievement has unmistakably con- fi-n-ned the fast that: there is a. naarked dillerenc+e in the ability of pr1pi!s to pursue successfully the various subjects that com- prise the school prc:gra.til. Itp is the business of teachers and school officials to tape note of this fact and to provide materials of instruction best suited to the varying abilities of children, It is evident that the content of a course of study is a very important manner. Its importance and difficulties increase in proportion to our enipbasis upon the hadividual needs of pupils. It must prepare for leadership and for the professions while, at the same time but in a different way, it must fit others for worthy citizenship and worthwhile participation in other lines Of work. 12 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Industrial Education Industrial education in same form is as old as the industries themselves, but it has only been in the last: decade that the public schools have uadertalcen in a serious way to place such ccarses in their program of studies. The broad use of this tcnn "Industrial Education" leads to a great deal of confusion on the part of the citizens its to the difference between courses in Industrial Arts, Practical Arts, or IYlanual Arts on the one hand, and vocational or trade courses on the other. A deci- sion as to the classiEcation of this work should be based upan the nature of its obioctlVes. In a recent bullcLin issued by the United States Departi-rent of Education, the following objectives for industrial couiscs in the junior and senior high schools are clearly stated: 1. To train the Band and eye in the intelligent use of tools and materials through certain fundamental operations, w1lich it is well for an indiNidual to be able to perform, regardless of his occupation. 2. To develop an appreciation of consti-Lictivc work with different t3Tes of i atcrials, in order that the individual may be a more intelligent consunier, rc ardlcss of occupation. 3. To pain in insight into an appreciation ,of sonic of the important industrial arts, in order that the pupil may real<e an intelligent cholce of an occupation. _!. To dex-elop ability to perform a variety of practical tasl�s sufficiently well to meet the general social demands and the needs of home life, 5. To pr,,�pa.ru ale individual for profitable and advantageous entrance: into en}plo}anent in a de rite industrial occupation, with the status of are advanced apprentice. 6. To provide an opportunity for those who have alreacly entered occupations to add to them lmowledge and shill, ill order that they may become more expert Nvorlcers, with increased €;timing capacity and a better change for promotion. The first four objectives are,primarily educational, while the last two are vocational in their aims, It is not advisable for Watertown to support a tirade or vocational school. "Are are so situated that it is possible for icur pupils to attend high grade vocational schools of various types SUPERINTENDEXT'S REPORT" 13 and secure a much better training, than would be possible for such a community as Watertown to provide. Tinder our pres- ent law any boy or b 1 over fourteen ears of age, who has com- pleted the sixth grade, D;allowed to attend the vocaticinal schools of the state unless such schools are maintained in one's town. Tuition to such schools is free for the pupils and mch an ar- rangenzent islrnuch mare desirable aild economical. Report of the Industrial Arts Department John Black, Dircclor As 1927 draws to a close we find the Industrial Arts Depart- mcnt, in the several schools increasing rapidly in z7unibers. I 'ith the addition of a full-tiiile instructor for the fifth and sixth trades, the enlarged shops at the West Junior High and the new shop at: the James Russell Lowell School, we are now able to take care of this work more satisfactorily. The splendid cooperation of all the instnictors have ina:de the work of this department a success. Our monthly meetings have been a great help in developing our course of study. At the 'West Junior High the transfer of the woodworking, piin,tinl;, and sheet metal shops from the cramped quarters in the old building to the large, well-lighted shops iii the new ad- dition, give to Watertavm industrial arts slops that are second to none. The new shop at. the James Russcll Lowell School was not equipped in tune for the fall opening of school. This shop will be ready January 3, 1928, and Nvill take care of classes of twenty pupils each. The print shop of the Past Junior High is being transferred to the third floor. During the past year enders for tables, desks, benches and bookcases, to be used in several schools, have been made at the West Junior and Senior High woodworking shops. Much prunt- ing for the sub}erilitende-nt's office has been gnl3tec_l at the Senior Iiigh shop. The correlation of shc)p work oat the Senior I-Iigh during the bast year has prodiieed a twc) horsepower matinc: motor com- plete and running kinder its own po=r.

Bisbee, Supen:isor When visiting schools in other cities or observing demonstra- tions at the colivontions I have been pernaittcd to ;attend, I have made it a point to observe the particular phase of music education stressed in each case, Some work almost ent for tone production using rote songs and neglecting drill in the reading of notes; and some are all for technique rcgardless of tone.; while othersad-mcate listcning lessons (music apprecia- tion) without -mving the ptP its opportunity for individual 11 participation M- singing. It has seemed to your music dircetor that the ideal ervarse to pursue was a cc-nibination of these, so as to give the pupils a feeling for good tone while learning how to read music and cam- parts independently, and then allot-*, theni the opporttmity to listen to good music by accomplished artists, such as the course ,ari- anged by Gimi and Company, that was introduced into our schools last rear and which I mentioned U' l my last report. of course, the scant time allowed for music in our curriculum does not allow us to earn., out any ove of these phases as far as we should like tv, btit it has been a satisfaction to fallow the careers of sonic of our high school gnadtiates and find. them singing in Church or college choirs and glee Clubs, some even cin the special quartet of their school; while as a result of our arclhestra traillingp many are playing, and leading in college or indi-tstrial orchestras and hands. Others still h a'Vc taken up music as vocation and promise to do credit to the profession. All of wliich confirius us in the belief that a good foundation acid working knowledge SUP17,RENTENDE\T'S RrpoRT 15 of music is what we should strive for, and seems to prove the surest way of awakening a permanent i;ttcrest in music. This fall T organized orchestras in most of the grammar schools, putting there in charge of a vrade.teacher in each build- ing, Nvho was especially interested in this kind of work, The following played for the Christmas assernblic q iti their respec6%re schools; C lidge School orchestra trained by NEss Barnes; Phillips School orchestra trained by Miss Bart; a combination orchestra from the Farber and Grant Schools trained by Miss Bentlev. All of these did very creditable work and are thus being prepared for Junior High orchestras, the requirements for adTilissicti to which we expect to make more severe next year. The Friday afternoon music classes at the Francis School. are largely responsibile for the great interest felt in our Tomi for the study of piano and orchestral instruments, and the en- thusiasm thus engendered has doused an increase in the number of l tpils talznt; from Pt"vate teachers also. This -%%,ork has been adrnirabil- managed by i1Ir. Nelson and is constantly growing. Tho High School orchestra was called upon early in the fall to play for the fz�rewall reception tendered by the Torn of Wa.tertowl-, to Colonel aiid Mrs, Abbott. December 19, they gave their annual entertainment for the omen's Club. They are now preparing for the usual spring concert, which comas this year on M.—arch 2.3. Fmi-n the proceeds of past concerts givull by both the junior and Senior High orchestras, instruments have been bought --- about thirty in all—and loaned to pupils for study and use in the orchestra.. More could be used, for I am constantly refusing requests for these. Another great need is a larger number of pianos ill some of our schools, especially in the lower grades. AMany that we now have are wom out and should be replaced by new ones. It is -very essential that:, during the impressionable years of childhood, our pupils should hear the correct pitch and good tones. Americanization NIARiot` P. BEEP, Superiisor hNluch constructive work is being done among the foreign- born people in Watertown. Some fifty- men have be:conie Aincrican citizens through the instruction received in our id WATERT{3WN TOWN REPORT classes for naturalization, and several htindred Wien and women attended classes in English last year. The foreign born mcthers, too, are now availing themselves of the opportunity to learn English and have as their goal American crtl7enship. Those mothers who cannot leave their liomes tea attend school classes on accomit of family tries are: given instruction in lionic classes. The lessons in English are so planned as to correlate directly with household acti%rities. They are taught hygiene and the advantages of theclinic. `trough the influence of the teachers, inany forei� i-1 orla wonien have taken their children to the c1lilics, Whore the children have received needed Delp. These children are Water- town's future citizens; it is vitally importwit that they bu given a right start. These are some oaf the many trays in which the Amcricaniza- t.ion program functions, reaching these: f orcign-born i-notbers in the home, helping them to understand our language and to boconle acquainted ti.,ith American ideals and ways of living, Lill to the end that they and their cliildren may learn the art of batter and more harmonious living in the land of their adoption. Of roc) small value in helping acquaint the foreign born in Watertown with the educat.ioval opportunities offered, are the racial committees, representing two of the largest foreign groups in the Town, the Italian and Armenian, Tfie corti- mittees are invaluable also for the infoarniation that they call give the local superviscr as to the needs of their people and ways and means of comisil; in personal contract with many of then. Classes have been org��ni7cd in the evening schools, in the factory and in the homes. There are at the present; time six cla.sse..s in the East Junior High School, two is the West Junior High School, three factory classes and three mother ' classes. In these classes the foreign-Born are taught to spear, read and write the English lanlntage, and they receive training iii the fundamentals of our History and govermrietit, which pre- pares them for their naturalization examination. We need to realize that the Americanization of the iinnii- arrant is not a matter of schooling alone. Everything that toaucl3es the life of the irnsnigrant is an instrument for his Amer- SURERINTEINDENT'S REPORT 17 icanization or the reverse. A new departure in otir work this year was the "Washington Pilgrirnage," a state-arranged program, whereby an opportunity was given to those foreign- born people attending Massachusetts' Americanization classes to take a trip to Washington. Fifteen pupils went frein Water- town. Men and women of different nationalities, race,, and creeds from all parts of the state met for the first tinie. They were thrilled, not alone by the exciternent of their first trip and their first stay in a hotel, but evert snore by the grandeur of Washiligton, of the Capitol Building itself, of the other public buildings in which the Government functions. They were thrilled again by the democratic spirit of President Coolidge, -who grected them and had his picture taken �ith their. The hundruds who took the trip mingled together har- moniously and happily,and were themselves a very real example of the spirit of true democracy. This proved to be an excellent way of acquainting ctiT foreign-born people with the real life and spirit of America. IV,ateitown, with its large foreign-born population, needs to provide more adequate means for enlarging its prograin to carry on this Vitally important work, thus furthering American ideas and ideals. Health Education The Health Education, that has as its objective the forma- tion of health habits, has been continued ricw fcr a number of years. The activities through which the work- is being accoin- plished are the Mowing: weighing, measuring, mid-nionlLing luncheons, teaching health habits, medical examinations and follow-lip work, correlation of health material N%tith school sub jects, drawing, English, cooping, lunchroom service, curies and scicnec. Three doctors and t�,,c school-nurses, besides the teachers, have to do with this important vork. The reports of the nurses follow: 13 WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT Report of School Nurse Miss Alice Johnson Pupils examined by school physician 2,190 Pupils inspected in school by nurse 4,566 Pupils treater] in school 699 Pupils witli hypertrophied tonsils 294 Pupils with adenoids 250 Pupils with ryasal defects 9 Pupils a ithenlarged cer,,-ical glands 57 Pupils iirith malnutrition 40 Pupils with heaft murmurs 10 Pupils with spinal defects 7 Pupils with chorea 5 Pupils with scabies 20 Pupils Nvlth impetigo 12 Pupils with strabismus (internal) 10 Pupils taken to out-patient clinics 133 Nurriher of visits to schools 400 Number of visits to Domes 117 Pupils examined by state clinic for retarded school progress 6 Pupils I iven instruction in hom(,, hygiene acid care of the sick 27 Deport of School Nurse Mrs. Susan M.

BISHOP, M.D., Secretary, r] HMNIAS C, QUIRK, NLD 3 REPORT OF THE AGENT To the Board of 11cahli., Tozow of Walartown. Centlearen: I herewith subrait for your consideration my report as Agmt for the year ending December 31, 1927. General Health Witbuilt question, due to the 6creased housing facilities and other developments, Watertown has now a population in excess of 30,000 people, and in consequence is no longer a small town. '"That previously were large fames are now thickly settled districts requiring increased attention from the department. Large increases in. the number of stows, restaurants, bakeries, milk dealers, and other places requiring inspection, make it impossible for one alone to thoroughly do the Nvork. Health Departments like all other departments, if they are to be efficient, must keep pace with the growth of the conunu- nity and its demands for their sal-vice. The large number of houses Tyuilt during the last ti,,,o years has added much to our ork. Many of these buildings were erected by out-of-tow-n specu- lators, who in many instances made no adequate provision for seiverage. After repeated efforts, we succeeded in getting most of them connected with. the public sewer where such sewer was available. Repeated changer, of ownership and fre- qucnt foreclosures, however, made it difficult to got results. In an effort to overcome this difficulty, ordi3rs have been issued to the plumbingy inspector not to approve on final in- spections any building that had not been provided with ade- quatc sewerage connections. In many instances, we have suc- ceeded in ha-6ng septic tan"- installed in place of the old type cesspool, Every year, many new state laws are being created for the protection of the public health. With the present force, laaw- ever, it is impossible to enforce their fully, Recent now laws ,covering the pasteurization, handling, and sale of inilh has in- 4 REPORT of BOARD OF HEALTH J creased this �%rork to such an extent that, one man might well be employed full time On milk and. food inspection. Dumps Many coaiplaints -,were received regarding conditions on and about the Arlington and Pleasant Street dumps, and also the dump near the James Russell Lovrell school. Due, however, to the splendid cooperation and effort of the Board of Select- naen, through the Street. Department, no complaints are now being received froni the two last dumps named. Complaints, however, are still coming in about the dump on Arlington Street. During November, the Street Department put this dtimp in excellent condition, but out-of-town people still persist in dumping; there during the might with resulting fires whose sn-iolce and odors are the cause of much complaint. The Police DeparLment have been requested to apprehend those causing the trouble, with the hope that the result of their efforts will prevent further complaints frorn that SOUTM Deaths and Causes Dur iig the year, 190 persons passed away in 117'atertown. Based upon an estimated population of 30,000, the death rate will be 6.3, compared %xith 202 deaths and a death rate of 7.1. for 1926. It is an interesting- fact that, of the 190 deaths for , 1927, 120 had lived to be more than 50, and. 12 had lived to he nearly 100 years of age. Of t11c several causes of doa.th, heart conlplicatimis caused G4,cancer 18, lobar pneumonia 9,bronchial pneumonia 13, tulaerculosis 9, cerebral hemorrhage 15, suicide 3, accidental 3, infantile paralysis 4, diphtheria 2. Da Lths in the last two instances occurred in hospitals. Contagious Diseases Two more cases were reported for 1927 than were reported 111 1926. During the early months of the year, scarlet fever in a very mild form was prevalent.. There were 43 cases of diph- theria and two deaths. Eight cases of infa.ritile paralysis and four deaths, one ty- phoid fever case. Repeated efforts failed to disclose the source of WATERTOWN TOWN REPORT this infection. For the last six months of the year, there was a decided drop in the m=nber of contagious cases reported. During the months of November and December but one case of diphtheria was reported. It seems too had that not- withstanding we now, through the use of toxin antitoxin, can control this disease, very few pem;is seem willing to give, their children its benefits until the disease acutally breaks out in school or neighborhood. Anterior Poliomyelitis (Infantile Paralysis) `his disease made its appearance in the early summer months, CAUqillg 111LIC11 COIICCI-11 In parts of the ectiatry, some sections of Massachusetts feeling its effects nitich ii-iore than others. To November 19, the State had reported 1019 cases-, Boston had 241, Belmont 7, Cambridge 50, Arlington 7, Ne-v%,- ton 17, II-Taltham 10, Ipswich 25, Gloucester 15, Arnesbury 12, arid Haverhill 1.15, an unusual number. Watertown, for the entire year, had 8 cases. These -were reported as follows; June 2, July 4, October 1, December 1. Of the 8, 4 were confined to two families. Several of these cases were not diagnosed until after the infectious period had passed, and the cases. had been in the hospital for se-veral weeks and well on their way to recovery. It is regrettable that science so far has failed in its efforts to discover the cause of the disease and its mode of transmission. If these facts could be determined, early diagnosis would be possible, quarantine established during the infectious period, and a great many cases ivould be preventcd. I sincerely trust that within a very short period, the cause will be discavered, and groping in the dark for relief will no long be necessary. Baby Clinic The report of the Nurse in charge of these, clinics should prove interesting. The scope of the work has been enlarged so that many ebildren of pie-school age, by request of their parents are being immunized with toxin antitoxin for diphtheria. Provision should be made for the housing of not only this. REPORT OF BOARO OC 1-MALTH 7 but other clinics that ought to be established by the Depart- ment. Funds should be pro%sided so that the Department could provide diphtheria protection for every child. Every cent expended for the prevention of diphtheria would save many dollars riow paid to hospittals for the care of diphtheria, cases. School Dentnt Work The results obtained through school dentistry is indicated in the report of the work done datring ICJ`?r is to the value of this Nvorkt, there can be no doubt.

This work is growing in importance and requires a great deal of attention to make it effective. During the year, more than eight h;jn1red visits have been made at various places where food is manufactured, kept, stored and sold. In 1927, the state enacted several new statutes, and one special statute controlling pasteurization of milk will do much to give added protection to this commodity. It gill, however, veld to the work of the inspection. Complying with the Act of 1921, local milk pastetuization plaiits wAl shortly be thor- oughly remodeled as required by the Act. A new statute was also enacted requiring that ice creaan manufacturers be licensed. I would recommend the adcption by. the Board of a regula- tion to the effect that no raw milk be sold tiv thin the Yawn un- less frorn an accredited heard or from tuberculin tested cows. In the inspection of nuisano-es, I have been aided very much by the Inspector of Plumbing. The following licenses were granted: Milk 207 01coia argarine 39 Alcohol 17 Hairk.crs and Peddlers 38 Manicuring 3 Grease licenses 2 Samples of nnilk examined 303 Dealers and instiLutiQns 62 Cream 31 Sediment tests 121 I� 20 WATERTOW.N TOWN REPORT y Food Condemned and Destroyed Potatoes 51 hags and 1 barrel Turkeys 259 pounds rigs 266 pounds Fowl 9 pounds Candy- 14 hags Grapes 20 pounds Tomatoes 3 bushels Store inspections 860 N isance complaints and investigations 670 Notices for smver connections issued 29 Respectfully submitted. 301-IN W.

The rainy sunuier caused a very rapid and hea-vy growth of grass, in each of the ce e- teries, which necessitated constant cutting. The moist and heavy earth settled mane of the graves making it absolutely necessary- to re-grade many of the lots to insure the upkeep Nis,bich w c strive to inaintain. Y An unusual nimiber of foundations for memorial stories have been placed during the year and the gerleral character of the monuments which have boon erected has been of artistic deli-Il and of value to the appearance of our cemeteries. At Common StreeL Cemetery, a retaining wall or fence, in the section reserved by the Town for earth that has been re,- moved from graves, is ,in imperative aced and should be built early in the Spring. It is hoped that. a heavy fence of mire or other material may be built aloe the bouriclary of this c -netc*" on the north and east side as the present wooden fence which was built nearly- thirty-five years ago is rapidly going to decay. Our grave linhigs and dirt covers which are used at all funerals are worm out after many years of use, and at present„ mahc a very shablay- appearance. I wii asking for money with which to replace them i th grass corers which are very neat its appearance, and which are used in most of the first-class cemeteries of today. Since the re-building of the waH and the substantial fence which surrounds AxIington street Cemetery, the grounds have been graded up to the wall and seeded with grass seed around the entire length. During the summer, the ,grass came up splendidfy all over the grounds, and much care was givers to bring the enclosure into a condition fitting to the place. Most of the evergreen trees have lived, which were planted by the Coanrnittee appointed in charge of the special appropria- tion of money to be used at this cemetery. ,Son-ic which died, and ethers which did not seem to thrive, were removed and replacrd by new stock through the generosity of one of our citizens, who also carried out the symrx7etry of the design of the fence by adding, with no expense to the Tvwn, a brick pier at the corner of the cemetery adjoining the Coolidge estate -on Solt. Auburn Street. 24 WATERTO N TOWN REPORT Two bronze tablets sponsored by the Watertown Historical Society have been placed on the piers at the entrance cf the Cemetery on Arlington Street in commemoration of the fare- fathers of the Town, two of which, at least, of the first who are known to have charge of enclosing the grounds with a fence in the year 1642, are now sleeping witliui its herders. The Nvork of restoration which has been accomplished has been com- mended by very many of our citizens. The equalization cf labor wages which Was justly brought about dkuing the year meets, I thinly, with the approval of the Townspeople. To the cooperation of the men under my charge, I am indebted for their interested assistance in keeping the several grounds up to an excellent standard. Respectfully submitted, FRANK R.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE WATEIRTOWN FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY The municipal year of 1927, jest closed, w-ill always be out- standiiig in the history of the Flee Public Library as an institu- tion. I marks the final transition of this %-aluable Department of the community life from the narrower limits to which, of necessity, it has been confined hitherto, into those wirier fields of usefulness and service which increasingly are being accepted as the true goal of library activities. To our dignified and substantial Afain Library have now been added and placed in succe.� til operation two branches: the attractive and splendidly +equipped East Branch, widely recognized as one of the lest designed and i-nost useful buildings of its type in Massachusetts, and alrNidy known beyond the borders of the state, together -with the North Branch, cc>zily and hospitably" established in the old Lowell School, remodelled and equipped for library purposes, aiid gracefully graduating to rider spheres of influence after a generation of honorable sev�rice as an elementary school. Thus a comprehensive library system hats been placed in operation in the course of a year, each unit admirably located to serve our fastest growing areas, each adequately housed, for the present at least, on property awned by the To-%vn, entirely unenctinabercd by municipal debt, and all under the complete supervision and control of our library administration. These material evidences of the Library's progress are visible manifestations of 'Waterto'wn's recognition of those elements of self-respect and well-being; ate-rer better expressed than in the dignity and quiet charm of library buildings, together with the increasing use of the stares of books founcl therein, and as such our citizens may take unusual pride in their possession. This expansion of the past year has yet another important significance worthy ofcomment and tmusual in the history of library development in general. It is found in the acceptance by our municipality of the entire financial responsibility of initiating and carrying tc a pleasing consun-in-iation the burden 4 BOARD OF TRUSTEMS 5 cf what maybe termed c ipital library expenditure. Such action is as it should be, and demonstrates in a generotts and sub- stantial manner the: keen appreciation of our citizens in the real. influence and place of books and library service in our civic and social lift-. Furthermore, such a policy becomes the truest recognition of the genemus gifts and self-sacrificing services rendered by the benefactors and friends over a long period of years, witbout whose aid no be,YtYniag, or even progress beyond a beginning, could have been possible. In a, very real way the"!gown has inet the obligation expressed in the vote of January 28, 1867, in accepting a gift of money for the foundation of a Free Public Library, that "The Library shall belong to the Town, and cared for and enlarged as circuin- stances permit, by annual votes of the To wri in meeting assembled." As in the business world today, the standard of success or failure by xvhich all departments of municipal service should have their meal-me, is by the quantity and quality of the service rendered in return for the money appropriated and spent in their conduct. By such ±Measure our library adi-inistration has been conducted well. The Librarian in her report deals adequately with the quantity and cost aspects of the year's actiV ty.. An increase in circulation of 26% in 1927 over 1926, in actual fares from 187,584 valusn.s i a 1926 to 235,473 vol- trues in 1927, is, I believe, untisual in the activities of any municipal library in the state. Moreover, in these days of rapidly increasing casts of operation in almost every department of public service, dine largely to increased public demands, it is gratifying to note that our cost per voles-ne circulated is slightly below that of the last few years. Comment on the quality of the sen4ce rendered by the library staff is peculiarly the province of the Trustees. As in former years, it has been of an unusually high grade, evem measured by the exacting standards required in library work today. Haying in mind the many* thousand' contacts with library users during the conduct of their duties, it is most gratifying that no suggestion of inefficiency, discourtesy, or lack of interest has come to our attention. On the contrary we have repeated evidences of their courtesy under all circum- 6 'WATFI,',I'UWN TOWN REPORT stance-S, of alertness to serve and help all ages, and an earnest effort to uphold the best traditions of their profession in ad- vancing the uscfuhiess of the institution of which they are so i iiportant a part, ' o the Libralian and to all the members of the library organization, in behalf of the Trustees, I wish to express our deep apprcclatioa of their work during the past year. Bringfiag as It did greatly ilacreased duties incident to the opening of two branches and an -unprecedented increase in the circulation, to- gether with the Miterveiiduri of regrettable,illnesses among their meni bers, all prcblerns have been met cheerfully and efficiently, and the successes of the year are their accomplishment. The Trustees have given careful consideration to the prob- able library activities of the coming year upon which both force and budget estimates must be based. The experience of the past year is conclusive that the point has been reached -where the burden of the increased duties cannot fairly, or economically be imposed upon our exusting staff, however willing and efficient its mvmbers may be. Therefore we, shall request the rncanr, of adding; one additional full-time assistant for service at the East Branch, together with such part-time assistance as may be -required to maintain the standard of the service expected by the community and to carry forv,ard necessary cataloging and detail work which has been seriously interfered with by the demands of deslc service chiiiiij; the past year. In the library budget of 1928 we are also asking the Town to continue the policy, begun two years ago, of granting an annual increase in the salaries of the library staff in order th�it their compensation may be brought gradually to the levels fixed by the Trustees as both equitable to the recipients and of a standard to retain in, and attract to, the 'Town's service the best of the profession. The mailitenance expenses of two bufldings, in addition to the Xlain Llbnaiy buildilig, will necessitate an appropriation in excess of last year for that Item. Although of substantial construction, the lWain Library building requires considerable repointing of the stone work and a thorough examination of, and necessary repairs to, its copper triinmings. Neither of these items has had attention for irany yeans. A coat of paint BOARD OF TRUSTEES 7 on the North Branch is desirable and would greatly improve its appearance. In view of the increases to be requested in relation to the salary and maintenance items of the library budget, both of Which the Trustees deem necessary, no larger bock appropria- tion will be requested for 1928. Our report shorfld not be concluded -" thcut some public reference to the Iris sustained by the Library acid the Town thraugh the resignation last fall, of Mr. Edwin T. Stiger, occa- sioned by his removal from Watertown. Mr. Stiger becatzie a i-neliabor of the Dorard of Library Trustees in 1917 and served as Chairman from 1922 tznt-il his resignation. He brought to the .service of the Library a love.- appreciation and wide krtm ledge of book, and his wise counsel and sotuid judgment as an execti Live. Dttring the construction and expansion period of the past fear years, his advice, assist- ance and encouragement to leis colleagues were always Inspiring. By his departure the community loses a. goad citizen and the Library a most devoted friend, CH.1RLES P.

The figures for the year will prove, I am sure, that these two projects of which we have tnll:ed for years, and which have now been realized, were justified. On Saturday, January 29, the nooks were gradually rnavcd from the old East BrancL to the new building, thereby neces- sitating the closing of the branch for but one hour, from eight to nine that evening. By three o'clock on Sunday we were ready to show our new'quarters to the townspeople and visiting librarians. On Alonday at one in the afternoon we ww-cre ready for business and business iva.s ready for us, for we gave out 730 hooks on the opening day. Each ixaonth has shown a de- cided gain in circulation dryer that of the same period in the preceding year, especially in tho circulation of children's books. The total circulation was 100,052, a gain of 43.2 per cent over that of ll126 and 111582 nmre than the whole library circulated in 1917, the year that the East Branch was started. The old quarters of the East. Branch were often so overrun with children that it seemed at times like a ebildlren's branch aild ww*e hoped in the new building, where part of the space was especially for the use of the adults, that they would have a fetter oppaitunity to enjoy reading and the selection of their books. This hope has been realized, but the children are with us in illcrea.sing numbers. "We have provided a large anal more attractive; roam, with inany more books, and they have been quick to take arlva.ntagc of these things. The 1-t5c of childlren's books, which includes those generally read by young people 11 12 WATERTC1WN TOWN REPORT below the ninth gmde in the schools, has uicreased 80.9 per cent, while that of the older people has increased 223 per cent. New cards w-ere issued, howevor, to 684 adults, while 497 V,,cre vcn to children, showing, that the east Bvanch is gaining more adult patronage but that the children are the greatest users of the modern public library, Already we can see the wisdom of the plans for future expansion by using the lower assembly TOorn for a children's room. On September 12 the North Branch was opened in one of the rooms in the building which was formerly the Lowell school. It would be hard to find an cold building which was 'better adapted for alteration for library purposes. In the roor n used the eight windows give admirable light, while the wall space was adequate for shelving to held approx, mately 3,000 books. One of the coat rooms is now the work seam. The furniture from the old East Branch Nvas cleancd and refinished and this fitted into the room as if bought for that place. All this altera- tion -was clone at N ery small expense. The hots of opening of the nuNv branch are the sane as those on which the East Branch was started, namely, every afternoon from two to six, and on Monday, IVcdnesday and Saturday evenings from seven to nine. There are tree del iv- cries each %-,reelc from the Main Library. In the three and a h,-df months that it has been opom, 334 cards have been issued and 9,068 books have been circulated, of which 61 per cost were to children. The circulation to a.dtdts has, however, increased steadily. The NOTt Y Branch has more attractive quarters than the Fast Branch sta.rtcd with ten years ago, and this added advantage that it is Doused in a building which is owned by the Town and for which we have plans to remodel the whale building as soon as the people in this section of the Town show that they need a larger room. All alterations made at this tine were part of the plan for the future remodelling of the whole building. It -would not have been siirpiising, if the cirC. nation at the Alain Library had shown a lass, as many of the burrowers found it more convenient to use cane of the branches. It was thought that the High School library, now well organized, would also take wvay from the use of the Public Library, but all depart- LIBRARIAN'S REPORT 13 ment,s of the -+Main Library, including the work with the schools, have shown a gain. The circulation for the whole library shows an increase of 25.5 per cent over that of last year. In five WarS the use of the library has increased 69.5 percent. In I1?17 there were 88,470 Lacks circulated while in 1927 the circulation -reached 215,473, an increase of 169.3 per cent in ten years. This is not wholly accounted for by the growth of the Town for even at the estimated population of 30,000 the Town has only increased 36.3 per cent. It is interesting to mote that along with the increase in the number of boolcs circulated, there has been a decrease of 3 per cent in the fiction given cut, although librarians have came to realize that scrne of our most informative literature now comes under that Beading. In addition, 2,479 pictures were loaned, mostly for use in illustrating the work in the classrooms of the se 001S. Fast vear I gave figures showing how our library coinpared with others of the same sire, as given in the Library Survey. On the basis of the census figures, of 25,480, our per capita circulation is now rJ.2 and at the estbna.ted population it is 7.8 per capita, an increase of 2 according to the first reckoning, and .6 by the latter. While we have h.ad a steady increase in cur appropriation it has not kept pace with the added use of the library and so the cast of Circulating a book has gone down to 11.9 cents. The circulation of books is but a small part of the work clone by a library but these figures seem to be the only tan',rible way we have of shoving work accomplished. This year we ha-re added 5,218 books, of which 4,594 ivere purch,-ased, 586 were gifts and 48 bound magazines. 'There were 1,524 books rebound. As 1,238 books have been lost or it itli- drawri during the year, we now have 61,169 volumes in the library. The starting of two branches and the increased circulation have preverited us from undertaldng any new project this year. The ivork v ith the schools and the Girls' Book Club have continued, but we have been unable to resume the story hours. I trust that during the coming year it N%gill lay: possible to have a professional story-teller. ?although we have been handicapped by the illness of 14 W.&TERTOWN TOWN REPORT members of the staff, I am glad to report that there have been but few changes in the personnel of the staff. I\Jiss Natalie Sawyer was made llbrw ia.n of the North Branch, and her place as assistant in the children's room was taken by 'Miss Doris Martin. In October Arliss Faustiner Bogart, assistant librarian of the East Branch, vras obliged to resign because of ill Health, and IvEss CotinnQ Mead was chosen to succeed her. In try report of the last year I pointed out that our stall was insufficient for the, work that we were doing. With our increased circulation the need of more assistwits is imperative. All extra help has been given to the circulation department. Three times as many honks are ordered, accessioned, catalogued and rebeland as in 1917, iNithout any extra help in those depart- ments. We have managed this yeaar by using most of each money for substitutes to hire an assistant by the week to assist at the branches and at the Bennis deposit. Du ing the coming year we should have at least one more frill-time assistant, and. sufficient money for extras to help iidth the routine work. As I stressed before, increased use of the library means that more books are required and that; more rebinding is necessary. In asking fear an appropriation for books,periodicals and binding, this fact must be kept in mind. This has been an experimental year in rahition to our main- tenance budget. We could only cstimate what it would cast to run the two bra, nches. lAre have carried tbrough at the expense of son-le needed repairs at the Main Library. We have not completed a full year in our Last Branch and but three and a half months in the North Branch so we are still in the experimental stage. I trust that our appropriation will. be sufficient tc allow of some work on the exterior and the interior of the l-Iain Library and possibly for painting the exteri for of the North branch. Our libraries have lauen used by various organizations for meetings of an educational and civic nature. In X ay a meeting of the Charles River Library Club was held at the East Braiich. Following the meeting; the mcmbers of the club were taken to the ;High School where the library was inspected and luncheon served in the cafeteria. The thanlcs of the library are due to those w-ho transported the; guests to the High School in their LII3FUItfr,N'5 REPORT 15 automobiles and to NIr. IN hitehill and his staff for the courtesies shown the club. We have borrowed, through the inter-library loan system, forty-one books, and have loalied twenty looks to other libraries. We have also borrowed books in foreign languages from the Division of Public Libraries of the State. These loans have been of great ser-vice to us. A beautiful ship modal was given to the, East Branch by Mr. Francis W. Hunnewell and it has been placed over the fireplace.. This acids one more gift to those already made to the library by the l:Iuanewell familir and one that: will be appre- ciated by the libran, patrons of all ages. Mrs. P. A. Yerxa gave us rr ovey for pottery for the East Branch caned we have received gifts of baolzs, many of which have been useful in making up our branch collections. I wish to express my appreciation of the co6peration of the members of the staff during this lousy, but interesting year, and to you, the Trustee&, for the support that you have given nee in carrying througdi this extension of library service.

ANNUAL REPORT OF TIRE WATER COMMISSION DECEMBER 31, 1927 After some years of negotiation iLlz the lfletropnlitan Water Comml siot1ers, we are nmv prepared to report that Watertown is in a way to be amP17 supplied as to volume and distribution. The original main crossing 1-tnder the river at the foot of Irving Street, which originally supplied Watertown and Del- mont, is now used delusively for the high sen ice (Cor nnon Street Dill section). The second sotirce of supply entering the Town through Noi th Deacon 'Street is the supply for the Inter- mediate pressure, covering the manufacturing section (Hood Rubber, Arsenal, and most of the section east of School Street). The third source of supply enters the Town through Pleasant Street and supplies the section on the south side of the river and around the: square and upper 1Nfain Street. `[J!nde:r the new methods c)f distribution the original layout has been found to be inadequate in many respects. The Com- missioners deemed this the tiMe to hay q expert advice and employed Messrs. Metcalf and Eddy to make a complete survey of the whole system and advise as to what changes, if any, would be necessary to completely fit the methods of distribution. We hav-c found this survey and recommendations to be immensely valuable in planning present and future extensions of the water systern. The proposed changes in cur distribution system will involve a considerable expenditure of money and we plan to spread the program over several years to lesser- the burden on the taxpayers. The 1927 receipts from water users will approximately total 170,000 as compared with $155,266.30 for 1926, the previous high mark for receipts. Six thousand eight hundred eighty- eight (0,888) feet of pipe has been laid to replace the old cement- lined pipe, and on new construction 20,611 feet has been laid, or a total for construction and reconstruction of five and one- half miles. 18861188Th88VMt24dI8Vlf►����� 114Q111902I1R03 190�IgA4IF�i�'l4nIR04910491IIIRI]i913hqi4liRlshR w ylig1 �ry 41�1>gw� Y 0 ► I V d d d� w >�'DOL I ► QL J 400-n —400I I 1 I _.9 =o 35-00 wo zoadj zoo C) �Lac wiaa� f I 1 �oflSl a_�,nn ��so na.
