<br />Deduct amount received from
<br />County on account of Dog Fees 1,386.41
<br />Total recommended for appropriation $12,632.59
<br />The increase in salaries of Librarian, Assistants, and
<br />Janitors, is clue entirely to the one-half restoration of the
<br />salary cut for the full year 1936.

<br />The Park Department in submitting its budget for the
<br />year 1936 requested $900.00 for a fence at the Center
<br />Playground and $425.00 for a fence at the East Lex-
<br />ington Playground. These items were not recommended
<br />by the Board of Selectmen and have not been approved
<br />by the Appropriation Committee. The increase in Cleri-
<br />cal Expenses is due to the permanent addition of a one-
<br />half time Clerk, now receiving $6.00 per week from this
<br />Department.. The increase in expense for Playground
<br />Instructors is due to the fact that in 1935 one of the In-
<br />structors was paid out of Government funds but it is not
<br />anticipated that Government funds will be available for
<br />this purpose in 1936. The increase in Other Expenses is
<br />due primarily to the approval of the purchase of a Motor
<br />Lawn Mower for $350.00 ; repair of Park Drive at an ex-
<br />pense of $600.00 ; tennis court repair at an expense of
<br />$400.00, and tennis court fence at an expense of $500.00.

<br />$10,963.92 $3,902.24 $3,902.24
<br />The decrease in the amount required for Fire Insurance
<br />Premiums for 1936 is due primarily to the fact that a
<br />smaller number of policies mature in 1936 than matured
<br />in 1935. Also, the rate on Fire Insurance has been re-
<br />duced, which is reflected in the amount requested for
<br />premiums. In 1936 premiums for Automobile Fire and
<br />Theft insurance, Workmen's Compensation, and Public
<br />Liability Insurance, and Automobile Liability Insurance
<br />will be charged to the departments involved.
