Mr. L. E. Bennink for the committee on purchase of electric light plant asked for more time to consider the matter, which was granted. Mr. H. G. Janvrin for committee on chemical engines :made the following report : 'The committee appointed at the town meeting of March 5th, 1894, to consider the subject of establishing a chemical engine on or near Mt. Vernon St. and other isolated portions of the town, would hereby report that they have carefully considered the subject, and while unanimously of the opin- ion that the portions of town referred to are now with 11 practically no protetcon against fire, we do not at this time 'recommend the establishment of such engines in these local- ities. The expense attending the purchase of these engines and equipments, and the location for and buildings to house them, would necessitate the appropriation of quite a large sum of money, and one that, when the apparent needs of the entire town are taken into consideration, your committee do not feel justified in recommending ; and as the vote by which this committee was constituted does not confer upon it any fur- ther powers, we will simply state in our opinion, the same a►nount of money appropriated for strengthening the central department will accomplish better results. HIRAM G. JANVRIN, DAN'L G. TYLER, C0772m ttee. JAMES H. FRIZELLE, And on motion of Mr. L. E. Bennink Voted, That the report be accepted. Rev. C. A. Staples for the committee on Hancock School building, stated that by the auditor's report a small balance of the building funds was still unexpended, and requested that the same m ight remain to the credit of the committee for any improvements or repairs they might think necessary, which request was granted by the town. Mr. Alfred Pierce for the school committee called atten- tion to the report and recommendations of the school com- mittee as printed, and the sante was accepted by the town. ART. 5. To see if the town will accept the list of jurors pre- pared and printed by the selectmen. The list of jurors which had been prepared and posted by the selectmen, was read by the clerk, who moved that the names of Aaron H. Livermore, George Simonds, and Charles F. Smith, be left off, they having been drawn since the list was made up, which was granted. Toted, That the list of jurors as a►vended be accepted. 1 12 ART. 6. To see if the town will make an appropriation for the proper observance of Memorial Day under the direction of Post 119. G. A. R. Voted, That the sum of one hundred and seventy-five (175) dollars be appropriated for the proper observance of Memorial Day, including decorating graves of revolutionary soldiers, to be expended under the direction of Post 119. G. A. R. ART. 7. To see if the town will make an appropriation for the proper observance of April 19, 1895, under the direction of a committee of the Lexington Historical Society. Rev. C. A. Staples said that by a standing vote of the town (passed April 20, 1868, see volume 1862 to April, 1881, page 132)the selectmen were authorized to cause a national salute to be fired on the 19th of Ap► it from year to year, and that it was deemed best that no appropriation Should he made for the present year, and the article was passed over. ART. 8. To provide for the support of the public schools the ensuing year, and grant money for the same. ARTS. 8. and 20. Mr. Alfred Pierce for the school committee .moved that an appropriation of seventeen thousand five hundred dollars be made for school expenses for the ensuing year. The matter was discussed by Messrs Pierce, B. F. Brown, B. T. Batcheller, L. E. Bennink, A. 8. Chatfield, E. P. Bliss. and G. W.

To provide for the support of the poor at the poor farm, the ensuing year and grant money for the same. The selectmen stated that no money was needed for the support of poor at alms house, as the balance remaining to the 13 credit of that grant was ample, and no appropriation was made. ART. 10. To provide for the support of outside poor the en- suing year, and grant money for the same. Voted, That the sum of twenty-five hundred dollars be appropriated for the support of outside poor for the ensuing year. ART. 11.

The subject was fully discussed by E. J. B. Nourse, L. L. Bennink, Geo. E. Muzzey, C. M. Parker, C. A. Staples, G. W. Sampson, Webster Smith, H. G. Janvrin, J. 11. Frizelle, R. P. Clapp, and others. Mr. Bennink of- fered a motion that a committee of five be appointed by the I4 chairman to consider the needs of the fire department and to report at an adjournment of this meeting ; this was amended by Mr. Sampson that the chairman of the board of selectmen and the chief engineer of the fire department be added to said committee. Mr. Webster Smith moved as a substitute that the sum of $2,500 be appropriated for the purchase of two chemical engines, and a committee of five be appointed for their purchase, which was not carried, and finally the motion of Mr. Bennink, as amended by Mr. Sampson, as follows, was Voted, That a committee of five be appointed by the moderator, which, together with the chairman of the board of selectmen and the chief engineer of the fire department, investigate the needs of the lire department and the purchase of new engines, and report at an adjournment of this meet- ing; and that when this meeting- adjourns it be to Monday, April 1st, 1895, at 7.30 o'clock, P.

Mr. W. E. Harmon, for the committee appointed under these articles, presented the following re- port. Pursuant to the authority given at the Town Meeting of March 4th, your committee has been actively at work in gathering facts relative to the present condition of the Lex- ington Fire Department, and such changes as are necessary to remedy the evils, if any, found to exist, and with the ex- ception of one member of the committee (who from illness not being present at any of the meetings or taking part with the committee in the investigation) herewith present the fol- lowing unanimous report : When the work of investigation was first begun we were confronted with the fact that something must be done. Lexington had suffered severely within the past few years, and the present condition of the Fire Department was mani- festly ineffective to protect our large and rapidly increasing village property. Yet there was in the committee no defi- nite idea as to what was required, or as to the conditions that really existed, and it can be properly said there was in the beginning no uniformity of opinions. Those that ex- isted were based upon such casual examination as would occur or be possible to the average Lexington citizen. The natural direction to look for a solution of the problem was by the use of either a steam fire engine or a chemical engine, or both, or through the present water supply, and to find out which of these was needed was seen in the beginning as the most difficult question with which the committee had to contend. Each member has gone into the subject with the earnest purpose to get at the truth, and each member, of his own volition and independent of the other, has come to a single conclusion. There were two general problems to consider, in fact, the question divided itself naturally into two parts, the needs of the town lying outside of the limits of the hydrant service, and the requirements of that part of 21 the town lying within those limits. The water system of the town of Lexington as relating to its fire service consists of a stand -pipe holding 63,000 gallons of water, which is filled twice a day, and at night after eight o'clock it is usu- ally more than half full, and a system of water mains rang- ing in size from eight inches to four inches in diameter, in all eight and one-half miles in length, there being one and one-fifth miles of eight inch main in the town, one and four- fifths miles of six inch main, and the balance of five and one-half miles of four inch main, the entire system covering and supplying about three-fifths of the entire number of houses within the town limits of Lexington. From this water tank or stand -pipe the water flows by gravity directly into the main, and the usual pressure at the Town Hall is from sixty-three to sixty-five pounds per square inch. An in- creased pressure can be obtained first by pumping into the pipe and permitting the overflow to be forced back into the stand -pipe, raising the pressure from eight to ten pounds, secondly, by pumping the direct force of the engine into the pipes. In this way the pressure can be increased to one hundred pounds or more, but no more than one hundred pounds with safety, and there is some danger even at this point, of bursting the plumbing in houses where it has been carelessly done, or when maintained for several hours, as at a serious fire, there arises a new danger in the pressure on the joints of the water mains, occasionally bursting the pipes above the point of issue, which of course entirely cuts off the supply. The length of time necessary to get up steam to put on direct pressure, if the engineer is present at the water works when notified, is fifteen to twenty minutes, as fires are always banked ready for use. If the engineer should be away the fire department would very likely have to wait until he could be hunted up. In fact, the whole sys- tem of the laying of water mains in the town of Lexington has been sadly neglected. 22 There is probably a larger proportion of four -inch mains in your town than ca.n be found in three-fourths the towns of New England of the same character. The water com- panies in most cities and towns have adopted the policy of putting in no pipe line of less than six inches in size where there can be the least possibility of growth, and it is the re- sult of this negligence in the town of Lexington that we are confronted with a condition of affairs that demands immedi- ate and radical attention. There will probably never be any more four -inch mains put down here, but that does not help a situation that in every system of supply and from every point of view is as ineffective as the Lexington water com- pany. The distance between hydrants is from 300 to 1000 ft., in one case 1600 ft., the average being about 600 ft. The water supply outside of the town consists only of small streams, nearly all of which are dry during a part of the year. Out- side of the hydrant limits there are all told 203 houses ; of this number only 31 are more than 1500 ft. from a stream of water, but as these streams are dry during a large portion of the year, at the present time this proximity has no particular value. On the assumption that within the hydrant limits the water supply was reasonably efficient, it would take but little investigation to determine the needs of the outer por- tions of the town. Some service was absolutely necessary, but a chemical engine, with a limited water supply, could afford quite as effective general service as it would pay the town to invest in, and this would also be the case within the hydrant limit, without it could be distinctly proven to the committee that the hydrant service was unquestionably in- adequate — and after careful thought and consideration, the committee as a whole decided the question had resolved it- self into the efficiency of the hydrant service. This conclu- sion being arrived at, we determined to make our tests so thorough and complete that it would settle for years to cone 23 any question as to the needs of the town, stop the increasing possibilities of higher insurance rates, and give to every home owner in Lexington confidence in the ability of the fire department to protect his or her interests. On Thursday, March 14th, the Water Company being notified, tests were made at five different points in the vil- lage in the presence of all acting members of the commit- tee and a number of other people. We endeavored to make the tests thorough and as nearly in accordance with the con- ditions of an actual fire as possible. This was done after conference with the heads of fire departments in other cities. Great care was taken, the pumping station being notified at each test to put on pressure and pump directly into the pipes, and the readings of the actual pressure at different in- tervals taken in the Town Hall. With the exception of the test at the Town Hall on the eight inch main the results were unsatisfactory, the one on the hill above Dr. Merriam's being the best, that opposite the school house on Clark Street the most unsatisfactory. Each member of the com- mittee saw at the end of this day's work that Lexington, in the event of a serious conflagration, was over the large pro- portion of her built-up areas absolutely helpless, and at the entire mercy of the elements. Near our $60,000 school house a stream of water with ninety-five pounds pressure barely threw over the telegraph wires, and with so little force that the entire pressure could be stopped with a man's hand, and when it was subsequently realized that the town of Lexington was located on four miles of the sort .of pipe from which these streams were secured, the most conserva- tive man on your committee gave up the fight. Another surprise was the very little increase in the flow of water that came when the pressure was put on at the pumping station, it being increased so slightly that it was at times difficult to see or note the difference. As the test of the school house was fairly the result of all those made 24 on the four inch -pain, an explanation of the difficulty was sought for, and the question submitted to an engineer in the city of Boston 10 this effect. " What is the maximum distance water can be thrown through a four inch main, 90, pounds pressure, with five hundred feet of hose, one and one-fourth inch nozzle ? " A reply was received to the effect that through such a pipe and such a length of hose it was impossible to get a stream. of water of any practical use in case of fire, and yet there are nearly one-half the houses in the town of Lexington depending for their supply of water upon four inch pipe lines, and a very large proportion of these at a distance from hydrants where 500 feet of hose would be required. The results of the investigation up to this point were ob- vious ; the inside parts of Lexington were just as poorly supplied with fire service as were the outside, and if a great amount of valuable property was to be protected, a steam fire service must be provided. But the results of this series of experiments did not lessen the requirements of the outer parts of the town nor provide for their needs, nor those of East Lexington. The citizens living outside the hydrant limits recognized, as did the committee, that for them a chemical engine was of the greatest value ; in fact, to procure an adequate service for our town both engines seemed to have separate but just as essential values. The advantages and disadvantages of a chemical and steam engine are somewhat as follows : A chemical can be purchased for about $1700 including hose carriage, its price being about $1000 less than a steamer. It is very efficient during the incipient and early stages of a fire, and is nearly independent of a water supply, carries two large tanks holding from sixty to one hundred gallons of water each. These are used alternately, the expulsive force consisting of a combination of sulphuric acid and bi- carbonate of soda. It is generally considered there is no 25 efficiency in the chemicals themselves except in confined places where the gases formed have no chance of escape.. The disadvantages are a greater weight, if the modern com- bination of chemical and hose carriage is used, the necessity of being on the ground early, and the entire inadequacy in a serious conflagration. The chemical engines by all fire departments in the country are considered merely auxiliary to either an effective hydrant system or a steamer, but in their way effective and valuable. It is true they put out nearly sixty per cent. of the fires in a fire department, but they put out these fires because nearly fifty per cent. of the fires are confined and can be easily handled by any form of extinguishers. There is no effort to deprecate the value of a chemical engine, and in country districts it is one of the most efficient forms of service known for small fires ; at the same time the limits of a chemical should be understood and only the proper amount of reliance placed in them that they enjoy in the minds of our best fire fighters in the coun- try. A steamer is of course useless without water. The dis- tance water can easily be applied is through about 2500 feet of hose. A No. 4 steamer of any reputable make will throw from 350 to 500 gallons of water per minute, or one stream through 1600 feet of hose, one and one-fourth inch nozzle, 165 feet, or one stream through 200 feet of hose, one and one-fourth inch nozzle, 240 to 260 feet, or three streams- at treamsat the same time through 500 feet of hose, one inch nozzle, 150 to 160 feet. The capacity of a four inch water main is about 325 gallons per minute at seventy pound pressure, and a No. 4 steamer will throw two fair streams from a four inch main with ten pounds pressure, or an almost perfect supply through a four inch main with 50 pounds pressure. A pres- sure of 140 pounds steam pressure and 250 pounds water pressure can easily be maintained. The weight is about 4200 pounds and the cost about $2700. Our present by - 26 -chants will not have to be altered to be fitted to a modern steamer of any reputable make. Cost of maintenance. A steamer can be maintained as cheaply as a chemical engine when both are operated with the same degree of efficiency, but on account of the neces- sity of handling hose, does not become in use so quickly. Steam from cold water can be obtained in from five to eight minutes, and the modern steamers for the uses of small towns are constructed so simply that a mechanic of reason- able skill can operate them without training. Our next in- vestigation was into the running expenses of the present Lexington Fire Department, and our report is based on the results of consultations with your engineer and in accord- ance with such reductions in the operating expenses and in the force as he and we deem practicable with a department equipped with modern appliances. The town. of Lexington ;has been spending for the past two years about $1400 in the maintenance of her fire department, and on account of in- ferior apparatus the return in fire protection has been cer- tainly the minimum. By a careful eradication of items of repairs, unnecessary help, livery hire, etc., a saving of about :$800 in the present appropriation was effected. Then, by adding in the entire amount of the extra expense of main- taining a two -horse steamer and chemical, keeping employed two men constantly, and all the additional outlay incident to a new service, we found that $2500 per annum would be ample for all of the needs of the running expenses of a new department, and by reference to other towns of like popula- tion and fire service such as is proposed, this is deemed equal or greater than the average. There should be a reduction from this amount in the use to the town of the employment of the horses and men on street work, watering, and other town matters, so that by the expenditure of $1100 or less more than the town is now putting out, a thoroughly efficient fire department can be or- 27 ganized and run, and the town of Lexington put on a level with the best of New England towns in her attractiveness from this point of view to prospective home seekers. The amount of $12,000 was proposed by your engineer from a somewhat casual examination of the situation, but after our examination it is deemed that $6000 is amply suffi- cient to provide and equip the new department completely. It will purchase a new first-class steam fire engine, a first- class two -horse chemical and hose, combined or separate, four horses, harness, 1000 feet of hose, the repairing and enlarg- ing of the building in the centre of the town for the recep- tion of the steamer and horses, and the building in East Lexington for the reception of the chemical and horses, and all the expense incident to the purchase. Regarding the conduct of the fire department and its re- organization, your committee has been unable to enter into the question from the fact that Mr. Nourse (the present chief engineer) is a member of the committee, and has given it valuable help in its investigation, and, further, the actual work of re -organization should be the province of a com- mittee appointed after conclusion of the present town meet- ing, if such policy be deemed necessary from its action. It is sufficient to say that our investigation has shown a large outlay of money that might, under some circumstances, be done away with, and we and he admit the necessity of such re -organization as would come properly to such a committee as might be appointed to carry on the work we have brought this far. An argument is often made that after a house is half burned down it is better to let it go than attempt to save it. This is a fallacy from the point of view of the town's interest, for as we ourselves know, not by any means every house totally burned is re -built, and such houses as are not re -built are of course through all fu- ture a loss of valuable taxable property to the town. There .are single houses in this community which if burned down 28 would never be replaced, yet would entail on Lexington a loss of two-thirds the necessary extra appropriation to main- tain this new department. It has been stated there is no dis- cussion of an increase of insurance rates in our town. This is not so ; there have been many instances of a material in- crease, and the treasurer of the N. E. B. of U. stated to a member of your committee a few days since that if the hy- drant service of the town of Lexington was known to be inade- quate it would result in an immediate increase of insurance rates. We are entirely satisfied also that a steam engine alone will not answer for the needs of our town It leaves the out- lying districts partially, if not entirely, at the mercy of the most insignificant fires, especially during the summer months. There is no doubt but that if no action is taken at present the growth of Lexington will soon demand a first-class fire service. Never in her history has she so conspicuously at- tracted the attention of the highest class of Boston hone -seek- ers. The purchase of this equipment, the reorganization and establishment of a first-class fire department, will sat- isfy the general fear which our unpleasant newspaper noto- riety at the time of the Cary fire raised, and Lexington in the future will be looked on as she is not at present from the point of view of fire protection as a thoroughly satisfactory place in which to live. Your committee as a whole have worked together in the most harmonious manner throughout ; each began with a determination to treat the question fairly and not to permit any personal bias to handicap the work of the balance of the committee. There has been no effort left untried to secure, not particular, but the best information relating to the subject. The increased tax rate has been considered, and the burden of expense at present on the town, and it was only the most distinct necessity that in- duced at least two or three to assent to the present recom- mendation ; but Lexington is growing, property values 29 within her limits in the last ten years have increased marvel- lously in value, and she stands today among all the sub- urban villages of Boston among the very first in the atten- tion of the best of Boston's citizens. It will not do to shut our eyes to this future ; it will not do to consider Lexington as an isolated village ; we must think of her as what she is to become, and as we unfortunately stand at present, handi- capped by a water company that is only noted for its ineffi- ciency, we must put ourselves on an equality with other cities that are inviting, as we are, a clean and prosperous class of people into their midst. Your committee has endeavored to recognize this responsibility, and in the face of the needs of economy it has concluded that the best economy for Lex- ington is embodied in the following recommendations. That the town of Lexington appropriate $6000 for the purchase of apparatus and horses for a steam and chemical fire service, and for repairs in, and alterations of, the present engine buildings in Lexington and East Lexington. That a committee be appointed at this meeting, authorized to make the said purchases, repairs, and alterations in accor- dance with the general plan and schedule submitted by this committee in the foregoing report. That the sum of $1100 be appropriated to maintain the Fire Department for the ensuing year, in addition to the amount heretofore appropriated. That the selectmen, or the fire engineers, be requested by vote at this meeting to reduce the number of men in the Department, and make changes therein, according to the suggestion contained in said report. That this committee be discharged. WILLIAM E. HARMON, E. K. HOUGHTON, B. C. WI-IITCHER, DANIEL G. TYLER, E. J. B. NOURSE, QUINCY BICKNELL, JR. 30 COST OF FIRE SERVICE.

This number is considered sufficient by the com- mittee, after full consultation with the chief engineer, to. handle the apparatus promptly and effectively, and the com- mittee recommend that the engineers be strongly advised to• follow this recommendation. The above is as far as this, committee can go, as, under the statute, the appointment of the engineers is vested in the selectmen, and they, that is,. the engineers, have the appointment of the other members of the force. And on motion of Mr. L. E. Bennink the report was ac- cepted. Mr. Geo. E. Muzzey, in behalf of Mr. Webster Smith, one of the committee, made the following motion : That the selectmen and engineers be authorized to pur- chase two chemical engines, four horses and sets of harness, and that thirty-eight hundred dollars be appropriated for the same. Mr. L. E. Bennink moved the following as a substitute - motion. That the town appropriate six thousand dollars for the pur- chase of apparatus and horses for a steam and chemical fire service, and for repairs in, and alterations of, the present en- gine buildings in Lexington and East Lexington. That a committee be appointed at this meeting authorized to make the said purchases, repairs and alterations, in accord- ance with the general plan and schedule submitted by this committee in the foregoing report. That the sum of eleven hundred dollars be appropriated to maintain the fire department for the ensuing year, in addi- tion to the amount heretofore appropriated. 32 That the selectmen or the fire engineers be requested by vote at this meeting to reduce the number of men in the de- partment and make changes therein according to the sugges- tions contained in said report. Also the following resolution : Resolved, That no person should be appointed engineer, engine man, or for any service connected with the fire de- partment, whose business calls him beyond the limits of the town, or to a distance from either village ; and that when- ever any engineer or member of the fire department is obliged to temporarily leave the town he shall, in every case, engage a competent substitute to take his place during his absence. The question was taken on substituting Mr. Bennink's motion for Mr. Muzzey's motion, which was carried in favor of substituting. Voted, To take up the recommendations of Mr. Bennink's motion separately and under the first recommendation to ap- propriate $6000, etc. The moderator after putting the qnestion declared it not a vote, which was doubted by Mr. Bennink, and the doubt was sustained by seven other gentlemen, and the moderator ordered the house polled. Pending the polling of the house the question was asked by Mr. A. S. Parsons if the matter was open for discussion, and the moderator replied that it was. The matter was fully discussed and many questions were asked the committee by a large number of gentlemen, and on polling the house it was by vote of 111 in favor and 72 opposed 33 Voted, That the town appropriate $6000 for the purchase of apparatus and horses for a steam and chemical fire ser- vice, and for repairs in, and alterations of, the present engine buildings in Lexington and East Lexington. It was further Voted, That a committee be appointed at this meeting authorized to make the said purchases, repairs, and altera- tions in accordance with the general plan and schedule sub- mitted by the committee in the foregoing report. Mr. Bennink moved and it was unanimously Voted, That the committee to make said purchases, repairs and alterations be the same committee that made the report. Mr. G. E. Muzzey moved that the sure of $1700 be ap- propriated for a chemical engine for centre village, which was not carried. It was further Voted, That the sum of $1100 be appropriated to main- tain the fire department for the ensuing year in addition to the amount heretofore appropriated ($1500). It was further Voted, That the selectmen or the fire engineers be re- quested by vote at this meeting to reduce the number of men in the department and make changes therein, according to the suggestion contained in said report. The following resolution was also adopted : Resolved, That no person should be appointed engineer, engine man, or for any service connected with the fire de- partment whose business calls him beyond the limits of the town or to a distance from either village ;:and that whenever any engineer or member of the fire department is obliged to temporarily leave the town, he shall in every -case engage a competent substitute to take his place during his absence. 34 Mr. M. I1. Merriam advocated a chemical engine for cen- tre village. and renewed :VIr. Muzzey's motion fir appropri- ation of $1700 for the purchase of one. 1\Ir. 1 euuink raised :a point of order that the sum had already been voted on, and the moderator ruled it out, but said he would entertain a motion for a smaller sum. • Mr. Alderman 01 used a vole being taken as many per- sons had left the hall since the vote was taken. AIr. B. II. Burke Halved that the manufacturers of steam and chemic:t1 tire engines be invited to send their apparatus and have a test on the 19th of April. Mr. AI. II. Merl i:nu moved that the rum of $1600 be ap- propriated for a chemical engine for centre village. Mr. L. E. Ilennink moved and it was Vote(/, 'Flint nt the v hole !natter be referred to the committee. AIr. L. E. Benniiik called up the report of the selectmen in relation to the expiration of the contract with the Lexing- ton Water Cotnlruly, and otfered the follewing resolution, which was unanimously adopted: Resolved, 'That the selectmen be requested to call a town meetin<z at least t1 irly day before tIle present contract with the Lexington! Water Company expires, for the purpose of considcrin;• the purchase of the property of the Lexington Water Company. Mr. Charles E. Wheeler called up the report in relation to police on page 42 of the printed report, and after some remarks moved, That a police officer be appointed, a resident of North Lexington,• if practicable, to serve as a regular officer or as a special officer, to he on duty at least Saturday ni2•hts, Sun- days, and holidays, subject to the decision of the selectmen ; which was voted. 35 On motion of L. A. Saville it was Voted, That all sums appropriated at this meeting, unless otherwise provided for, shall be assessed the present year. The committee on stone crusher was granted further time. Meeting declared dissolved. A true record. Attest: LEONARD A. SAVILLE, Town Clerk. WARRANT FOR A TOWN MEETING. SATURDAY, Arurm. 27, 1895. 7o WILLIAM B. h'06TER, Constable of Lexington, GREETING :— In the name of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts you are hereby required to notify and warn the inhabitants of the town of Lexington qualified bydaw to vote in town affairs, to assem- ble at the Town Hall on Saturday, the twenty-seventh day of April, A.

Vo'ed, That a moderator be chosen by ballot with the use of the check list, and that the polls remain open five minutes. On ballot fifty-four votes were cast, fifty of which were for Augustus E. Scott for moderator, who was declared elected and he was sworn by the clerk. 36 ART. 2. To see if the town will vote to rescind the votes passed at the meeting held April 1, 1895, whereby the town voted to expend the sum of six thousand dollars for the purchase of steam and chemical fire engines, horses, harnesses, hose, and in alterations and repairs of engine houses, and the sum of eleven hundred dollars for additional expenses of the fire depart- ment, and any and all other votes passed under the report of the committee on fire service. The vote on the foregoing to be taken by ballot with the use of the check list and the polls to be kept open for such time as the meeting may direct. On motion of Mr. L. E. Bennink it was Voted, To take up Article 2. Mr. Bennink called for the reading of the record of the last meeting in relation to the subject matter of the article, which was read by the clerk. Mr. Bennink moved the indefinite postponement of the article. Mr. Webster Smith moved as a substitute that the town vote to rescind as expressed in the article. After some discussion the question was taken on Mr. Ben- nink's motion to indefinitely pestpone, and it was declared not a vote by the moderator, which decision was doubted and the house was ordered to be polled. On polling the house 157 voted in favor of indefinite postponement and 89 in opposition, and the moderator declared the article indefi- nitely postponed. ART. 3. To see if the town will vote to adopt the following additional by-laws of the town : Section 14. No person, firm, or corporation shall engage in or exercise within the limits of the town of Lexington, the trade or employment of keeping swine, without having first obtained a permit therefor in writing from the Board of Health; and such permit may be revoked at any time by said Board. 37 Section 15. No person, firm, or corporation shall keep any swine within the town of Lexington without having first ob- tained a permit therefor in writing from the hoard of Health; and such permit may be revoked at any time by said Board.

Whoever violates this regulation shall forfeit a sum not exceed- ing one hundred dollars. Voted, That the moderator (Hon. Augustus E. Scott) be requested to present the by-laws just adopted to the Court for approval. Mr. Cornelius Wellengton presented the following resolu- tion, which was adopted by the town : 38 << Whereas, as a result of stringent rules enforced by neighboring towns for the suppression of nuisances caused by the keeping of swine, and the transporting, and storage of swill and other offal, that business is increasing within our town limits to an alarming extent, so much so that it must inevitably check the increasing popularity of the town, as a place of residence, therefre, "Resolved, That it is the sense of this meeting that no li- censes nor permits for the keeping of swine should be granted to any who are not residents of the town. "And that the Board of Health, in their efforts to enforce this and other rules which they may see tit to adopt for the regulation and suppression of these growing nuisances, should receive the encouragement and hearty support of all citizens who have the welfare of the town at heart." Ari. 4.

No committee being ready to report, it was Voted, To adjourn to Saturday, May 25, 1895, at 7.30 o'clock P. M. 41 ADJOURNED MEETING. LEXINGTON, May 25, 181'5. The meeting adjourned from April 27 was called to order by the moderator, A. E. Scott, who stated that at the time of adjournment certain matters were left unfinished under Articles 4 and 6. Mr. Geo. E. Muzzey moved and it was Voted, To take up Article 4. The committee appointed under this article had made a report, as follows : To TIIE TOWN OF LEXINGTON : The committee appointed to consider the matter of making a new contract with the Lexington Water Company for the use of hydrants, and also the matter of purchasing the cor- porate property and all the rights and privileges of the Lex- ington Water Company, feel that they cannot better serve the town than by reporting in print, giving, in addition to what may be properly called a report, a somewhat extended statement of matters relating to the situation, which may tend to assist the people in their action. By Chapter 267 of the Acts of 1881, Moses Joy, Benjam- in F. Brown, George O. Whiting, Hammon Reed, and Leonard A. Saville were incorporated as the Lexington Water Company. So eager were the people for water from some public source, that no opposition was made to the charter, but, through individual effort, the company was restricted in its franchise for taking water, to the springs situated within thirty rods of the Lincoln Road, on its southerly side, and 49 it was expressly prohibited from taking the waters of Vine Brook. The company was authorized to issue stock to the amount of $60,000. It was also authorized to issue bonds and secure the same by a mortgage on its property to the amount of $60,000. The charter contained the usual provision, allowing the town of Lexington to purchase the property of the com- pany at any time, and, that this may be fully understood, the following section of the charter is printed in full : " SE . 8. The town of Lexington shall have the right, at any time during the continuance of the charter hereby granted, to purchase the corporate property and all the rights and privileges of said company, at a price which may be mutually agreed upon between said corporation and the said town of Lexington; and the said corporation is authorized to make stile of the same to said town. In case said corporation and said town are unable to agree, then the compensation to be paid shall be determined by three commissioners to be appointed by the Supreme .J udicial Court upon application of either party, and notice to the other, whose award, when accepted by the said court, shall be binding upon both parties. And this authority to purchase said fran- chise and property is granted on condition that the same is as- sented to by said town by a two-thirds vote of the voters pres- ent and voting thereon at a meeting called for that purpose; the number of meetings called for that purpose in any one year not to exceed two." It is understood that the whole amount of the capital stock was isstued, and that a contract was made with Mr. Joy by the above -maned 2.entlemen, as directors of the com- pany, by which the whole stock of the corporation and the whole or p;irt of the issue of $20,001) in bonds, were riven • to Mr. Joy for the purchase of land and the erection of works. 43 July 2, 1883, the company mortgaged all its property to the International Trust Company, of Boston, to secure its bonds amounting to $20,000. July 2, 1888, the company placed a second mortgage on its property to secure an ad- ditional issue Of $30,000 of bonds. It is claimed that the whole stock and the entire issue of bonds have been used in completing and extending the works. The company proceeded to erect its buildings, lay pipes, and to construct two large brick wells or reservoirs on its location. Later, two additional brick wells were constructed in the westerly corner of its location, and Still later, another was dug on the southerly side of Vine Brook, on hind which it attempted to purchase of )1r. Joy, so as to take the waters of one branch of the brook, which was fed by a valuable spring on property of \Ir. Seaverns. The demand for water continuing to increase, and the supply from its restricted location being insufficient to meet the demand, the company constructed a tubular well, large- ly through ledge, 200 feet deep, the supply from which seems to be of remarkable purity, and limited only by pump- ing capacity. Later, the company also purchased of I\Ir. Seaverns, at considerable cost, about three acres of land, including the spring above referred to. In 1892 the legislature granted the company an additional Act (('hap. 349), for the purpose of improving• and increas- ing its water supply. By this Act the company was authorized to take the waters of Vine Brook and of the springs in the land which they had attempted to purchase,—which purchase was le,alized by the Act,—also the waters of Vine Brook and the springs tributary thereto in the land Tying west of the westerly boundary of its property, with the richt to take as much land as it required for the protection and storage of such waters, also the waters of Vine Brook and springs tributary 44 thereto in about twenty-six acres of land lying northeasterly of its original location. This hast -named tract embraced what is known as the " Base Ball Ground." This Act also contains a section providing that the town of Lexington may purchase the properly and privileges ac- quired under the Act, but there are added the following pro- visos : " Provided, that the property, rights and privileges acquired under either Act shall not be purchased separately without the consent of said corporation; and provided,.fur- tlzer, that the compensation to be allowed and paid for the franchise of said corporation shall not be increased by reason of the passage of this Act." Acting under the advice of competent engineers, and with the approval of the State Board of Health, the com- pany proceeded to construct a large gallery or well upon the last-named tract, and to conduct the waters obtained from it across intervening lands to its pumping station. In order to still further increase its water supply and im- prove the privileges granted by the Act of 1892, the com- pany petitioned the legislature in 1894 for authority to in- crease its capital stock and to issue additional bonds. The full amount asked for was not granted, but by Chapter 223 of the Acts of 1894, the company was authorized to increase its capital stock to $90,000, for the purpose of providing an additional water supply, and to issue additional bands to the amount of $10,000, to take care of a portion of its floating indebtedness. The Act provided that the issue of stock and bonds should be made under the direction of the commis- sioner of corporations. After due hearing the commis- sioner authorized the issue of the full amount of stock, and the company proceeded to take land and to construct a reservoir. It is believed that the company has not issued the ad- ditional bonds which were authorized, and that it has not provided for its floating indebtedness ; it is also believed 45 that only a small amount of its earnings have been paid in dividends, but that they have very largely gone into con- struction. The committee are informed that the claims for land dam- ages have been about four times as much as the company estimated in its petition to.the legislature.. The reservoir was constructed according to the advice of the State Board of Health, and seems to have been carefully planned and thoroughly built ; and while the committee have no means of knowing its actual cost, it is possible that the floating indebtedness of the company may be larger than when it was shown to the legislature. For the purposes of the reservoir, the company took 13,040 acres of land from Mr. Joseph Middleby, -frAj6,5 of an acre from Mrs. Lawrence, and of an acre from Mr. Teele. For the purpose of laying and maintaining pipes, it also took the right to use a strip of land twenty feet wide, ex- tending from the reservoir, through the farm of Mr. Middle - by, to the pumping station of the company. The time for filing claims for damages not having expired, it is impossible to estimate what the entire damage may be which the company, or the town in case it purchases the property, will have to pay. The committee expresses no opinion as to the supply or quality of the water to be obtained from this latter source. We quote the following from the State Board of Health : " It has a capacity of about 14,250,000 gallons, and, if raised an additional foot by flash -boards, of about 16,000,- 000 gallons. Its area is about 5i acres, and its water -shed, including the area of the reservoir, is about -5 of a square mile. An additional ground -water supply was also de- veloped during the construction of the dam and the laying of the pipe from. the reservoir to the pumping station, which has been turned into this pipe. 46 The ground -water supply" referred to by the Board of Health, yielded during the dry season of last year an av- erage of thirty-eight gallons per minute. The water of this spring was not turned into the reservoir, but the spring was walled up to the top of the dam, and constitutes a separate additional supply. There were also driven in the bed of the reservoir five additional wells, which are claimed to have a capacity of 72 gallons a minute in a dry season. These wells are not allowed to flow into the reservoir, but are piped in such manner that they can be drawn upon for an independent supply. The reservoir is intended for the storage of the waters from its water -shed which might other- wise run to waste. The company owns about 54 acres of land, including the reservoir. It has five pumps, one of which has the capacity of 1,000,000 gallons per day, and another of 500,000 gallons. We have made these statements regarding the growth and the present condition of the water company in order that some idea may be formed of what may be claimed to be the value of its property. It is quite possible that the town and the company may agree upon a price, but if they are unable to do so, the case must be determined by a commission, as provided in the section of the chatter above quoted. It is difficult to state upon what basis such commission will make its estimates. The number of cases in which towns have purchaised the property and franchises of private water companies is not large, and there appears to be no well-settled rule by which such commissions are guided. It is claimed by some that the price to be paid should be the actual cost of the works, together with. a fair rate of 47 interest upon the amount of the investment from the time it was made. The attempt has been made in some of the recent Acts to provide by law this method of determining the price which towns shall be obliged to pay. There is no such provision as this in the charter of the Lexington Water Company, and it is probable that the rule of compensation will be the value of the land, works, and business of the corporation at the time of the purchase, to- gether with the value of the rights and privileges, or the franchise granted to it by its original charter. This fran- chise consists of the right to take land and the springs in the prescribed locality, to lay pipes, and to furnish the inhabi- tants of Lexington with water for the extinguishment of tires, and for domestic and other purposes. In most cases that have been heard, the commissioners have seemed to regard a franchise on which parties have ventured to invest their money, and to establish a business, as of great value. It is for the town to determine whether the value of this franchise, property and business will increase in the future to such :w extent as to make it good business management for the town to purchase at the present time. The following summary will more concisely present points to which we have called attention : Capital stock of the company Mortgage bonds of the company - Floating indebtedness of the company Unsettled claims of the company - Value of business and franchise - Value of land and other property - 890,000 50,000 The income which the town might receive from the works is also an important factor. 48 In order to get at the approximate estimate of the annual gross receipts of the water company, the committee employed Mr. Kaufmann to make a canvass of the water takers. This canvass showed the receipts from this source to be about $7,250 ; the town paid the company last year for the use of hydrants, $1,750, making a total of about $9,000. The com- pany also admits this amount to be substantially correct. We are unable to state what the cost of running the works and the depreciation is, and we will not venture an opinion as to whether the town will be able to carry on the business as cheaply as a private company. The town having obtained the works, no doubt very many vexatious questions will have to be decided in town meet- ings, such as the regulation of the service, the extension of the mains, etc., and probably additional bonds will have to be issued from time to time to meet the cost of such ex- tensions. We think these are the chief questions which should gov- ern our action at the present time, for with the existing water supply it is difficult to see how the service can be more satisfactory under town management than under that of the water company. All available sources of supply within a reasonable dis- tance have been taken. A committee appointed by the town to investigate sources of supply, continued its work for several years, making some surveys, and examining all the springs and streams within and near our town limits, but they were unable to make any suggestions or recommendations ; and so long as there is a possibility of the adoption of a scheme for a Met- ropolitan Water Supply (which Lexington can probably be- come a part of when it desires), it would not seem to be pru- dent management for either the town or water company to ex- periment further within our own borders, or to seek for a supply from a distance. 49 The committee are of the opinion that the town should not act upon the question of purchasing under the article in the warrant for the present meeting, but that a meeting should be called to vote directly upon it. The Act provides as follows : " This authority to pur- chase said franchise and property is granted on condition that the same is assented to by said town by a two-thirds vote of the voters present and voting thereon at a meeting called for that purpose. It is desirable that the vote on this question should be a full one, and the committee suggests that it be taken, if at all, at a meeting called on the day of the election in Novem- ber, or at the regular March meeting. The vote to purchase having been passed by the requisite number, we cannot re- cede, the property at once legally passes to the town, and the town must take it. The only question then to be determined is, how much the town shall pay the company. We are unable at this time to obtain from the company a price for which it will sell its property, but we understand it will not hesitate to name such price as soon as the town has voted to purchase. We therefore recommend that when the town votes to purchase, a committee be appointed to negotiate with the company, with full powers to agree on the price, if possible, and if they are unable to agree, to ask the court to appoint a commission to determine it. By agreeing on the price, we save the expense of the com- mission and legal proceedings, which is usually a consider- able amount. If the town votes to purchase, it must at once provide the means of payment. The public statutes provide that a town may issue, for payment for such purpose, its bonds, bearing interest at a rate not exceeding seven per cent., and redeemable at a time not exceeding twenty years from their date. 50 The existing contract for the use of hydrants expires in July next. Under this contract the town pays to the com- pany one thousand dollars per year for the first 30 hydrants, and thirty dollars per year for each additional hydrant. There are now in use fifty-eight hydrants, for the use of which the town paid to the water company during the last year $1,750. Several more hydrants are demanded and should be put in place at once. Under this contract the company is required at all times to maintain a given pressure. The committee have negotiatedwith the company for a new contract. The only terms which they have been able to obtain are as follows : The company will contract to furnish water for not less than seventy hydrants for five years, at $48 per hydrant, or, for ten years at $45 per hydrant. If this contract is made, the town will be required to pay annually for hydrants, watering streets and for water in town buildings a sum equal to about four per cent. on $90,000. It seems to be necessary to make some kind of a contract with the water company, whether the town votes to purchase the works or not, as it is hardly possible to complete the pur- chase of the works, if the town desires to do so, before the old contract will expire. We therefore recommend that the selectmen be authorized to make such contract with the water company as they may deem best for the welfare of the town. This contract, even if it is made for a term of years, will be made void by a vote to purchase. There seems to be much misapprehension regarding the scheme for a Metropolitan Water Supply, and as it has direct bearing upon the matter which we are considering, it seems 51 proper that the committee should make a brief statement of its scope and purpose. The plan seems to have been devised very largely to pro- vide a water supply for Boston and those cities now depend- ing on Boston for water. The attempt is being made to compel other cities and towns lying within certain limits to become a part of the system, and to help pay the cost and expense of running the same. It is not proposed by this plan to furnish water directly to the inhabitants of the cities and towns within the water dis- trict, but merely to bring the waters of the Nashua River to the reservoirs and stand -pipes belonging to the several cities, towns and water companies. In other words, the works established under this scheme will furnish water at wholesale to the cities, towns and pri- vate companies, and the latter will distribute it through their pipes to the individual takers. It is proposed to assess the cost of establishing and main- taining these works upon the different cities and towns by a somewhat intricate system in proportion to valuation and the number of inhabitants. This scheme originally included Lexington, although it was admitted that Lexington would not be in need of addi- tional water for several years, and also that its present sup- ply was much purer than it would be likely to get from the Nashua River. Through the efforts of the selectmen and others who have been active at the hearings before the legislative committee, Lexington has been left out of the bill as it now stands be- fore the legislature. As Boston and the neighboring cities requiring this supply are anxious to get as much help as possible to pay this large cost, there will no doubt be a strong effort made to force Lexington, and some other towns that are now excluded, back into the district. 52 We are strongly of the opinion that every effort should be made to prevent this. If, at some time in the future, we are in need of an ad- ditional supply, and are unable to take care of ourselves, we believe there will be little difficulty in being taken into the district, or of purchasing from it such supply as we may require. We do not care to be taxed for what we do not use or require, and we can avoid such taxation only by being left alone. Respectfully submitted, WEBSTER SMITH, GEORGE E. MUZZEY, EDWIN S. SPAULDING, LEONARD E. BENNINK, JAMES S. MUNROE, FRANKLIN ALDERMAN, WARREN SHERBURNE, HOWARD M. MUNROE, A. E. SCOTT, Committee. LEXINGTON, May 20, 1895. Which report had been printed and a copy mailed to every voter, and the reading thereof was dispensed with. Mr. James P. Munroe moved that the report of the com- mitted be accepted. Mr. L. E. Bennink read from the report the clause in re- gard to making a new contract with the water company for the supply of water for hydrants and other town purposes. Voted, That the report of the committee be accepted. Mr. C. M. Parker moved and it was 53 Voted, That the selectmen be authorized to make a new contract with the water company for the supply of water for hydrants and other town purposes. Mr. Geo. E. Muzzey thought that this was an important question and that the matter should be fully discussed, and moved that a committee be appointed to get the water com- pany to name a price at which it would dispose of its fran- chise and property. Mr. C. A. Stone moved an amendment, that said commit- tee be requested to report at an adjournment of this meeting, which was carried, and the motion of Mr. Muzzey as so amended was Voted, That the selectmen be a committee to obtain from the water company a price at which it will sell its franchise and property to the town, and to report at an adjournment of this meeting. Subsequently, so much of the above vote as required a re- port at an adjournment of this meeting was reconsidered, and the report was authorized to be made at a town meeting to be held in the month of June. Mr. Cornelius Wellington moved to reconsider the vote whereby the selectmen were authorized to contract for hy- drants, but the town refused to reconsider. Mr. R. P. Clapp moved that the selectmen be requested to call a meeting in the month of June to vote on the question of the purchase of water works. Mr. L. E. Bennink moved to amend to have said vote taken at the annual meeting in November or March, which amendment was not carried, and it was Voted, That the selectmen be requested to call a town meeting in the month of June of the present year, to vote on the question of the purchase of the franchise and property of the Lexington Water Company. 54 On motion of Mr. Irving P. Fox it was Voted, That the selectmen be authorized to employ expert or legal talent in investigating the value of the water works. The whole question of the relation of the town and the water company was fully discussed by Messrs. Geo. E. Muzzey, A. C. Stone, Franklin Alderman, M. H. Merriam, L. E. Bennink, Webster Smith, C. M. Parker, G. W. Sampson, R. P. Clapp, W. E. Harmon, J. O. Tilton, and others. ART. 6. Mr. Franklin Alderman moved to indefinitely postpone the matter, which the town refused to do. Mr. George E. Muzzey stated that the town must accept the provisions of the act or no street watering could be done by the town. The question was discussed in relation to the amount to be assessed on the abutters, or whether the town should pay the whole cost. On motion of Mr. A. S. Mitchell it was Voted, That the town adopt the provisions of Chapter 186 of the Acts of 1895 in relation to the watering of streets in towns. On motion of Mr. R. P. Clapp it was Voted, That twenty-five per cent. of the cost of watering streets be assessed on abutting estates on streets watered. On motion of Mr. A. S. Parsons it was I "Wed, That the meeting be dissolved. true record. Attest : LEONARD A. SAVILLE, Tvz',i Clerk. 55 WARRANT FOR A TOWN MEETING, SATURDAY, May 25, 1895. To WILLIAM B. Fos'rEi:, Constable of Lexington, GREETING :— In the name of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, you are hereby required to notify and warn the inhabitants of the town of Lexington, qualified by law to vote in town affairs, to assemble at the Town Hall on Saturday, the 25th day of May, A. D. 1895, on the dissolution or adjournment of the meeting of April 27, 1895, which was adjourned to said Saturday, May 25, 1895, to act on the following Articles, namely : ART. 1. To choose a moderator to preside at said. meeting. A. E. Scott was unanimously chosen moderator, by bal- lot, with the use of check list, and was sworn by the clerk. ART. 2. To see if the town. will choose William E. Harmon, Bradley C. Whitcher, Quincy Bicknell, Jr., Daniel G. Tyler, Edmund K. Houghton, Edwin J. B. Nourse, and the chief engi- neer of the fire department a committee to expend the six thous- and dollars appropriated at an adjournment of the annual meet- ing held April 1, 1895, to carry into effect the recommendations of the committee appointed at the annual meeting, March 4, 1895, to investigate the needs of the fire department, as far as the expenditure of said six thousand dollars is concerned. Owing to the lateness of the evening it was moved that the meeting be adjourned for two or three weeks, but the meeting refused to so adjourn. Mr. L. E. Bennink moved to take up Art. 2. Mr. R. P. Clapp moved to take up Art. 3 in connection with Art. 2, and the town 56 Voted, That Articles 2 and 3 be taken up together. After some discussion, Mr. W. E. Harmon, for the com- mittee on fire service, made a report as follows : Pursuant to the authority given your committee at the ad- journed town meeting of April 1st, it entered into negotia- tion for a steam fire engine and chemical engine, hose wagon, one thousand feet of hose, the repairs and alteration of the two engine houses, and the purchase of four horses and har- nesses. At the first subsequent meeting of the committee it was determined that as horses would not be needed until all other purchases were completed and delivered, the negotia- tions for them he deferred. While it was deemed important that the best apparatus procurable be selected, yet economy was an equally impor- tant factor, and every effort of the committee was directed toward eliminating all the factors of unnecessary expense, that we found to be almost universally a part of the purchase of this sort of apparatus. We received estimates from the manufacturers of the Amoskeag engine (the Manchester Locomotive Works), the American Fire Engine Co., manufacturers of the Silsby, Clapp & Jones, Ahrans and Button engines, and the La France. A Silsby No. 5 rotary engine was finally selected, and a contract entered into for the purchase of the same at a cost of $2,650, $250 of which has already been credited on the account without expense to the town. The contract was made and entered into the twelfth day of April, with an agreement of delivery within fifty days. The stipulations for test were much more severe than those of the city of Boston, and the guarantee of endurance was twelve years, against that provided for by the contract of the city of Boston for two. In addition to this, the purchase was made at a price considerably less than any steamer of the same capacity has ever been purchased, to the best of our knowledge and belief. 57 In the purchase of the chemical and hose wagon the same effort was made, to purchase economically, and it is due to the untiring efforts of Messrs. Houghton and Whitcher that a contract was completed with S. F. Hayward & Co., agents for the Babcock Chemical Engine Co., including one double horizontal tank, sixty gallon, Babcock chemical, two sets of harness, and a Rumsey hose wagon for $1,425. One thous- and feet of jacketed hose was purchased through Calaghan & Co., agents, at fifty cents per foot. About this time, on account of certain obstructions, which were placed against the successful completion of the balance of the work put upon the committee by the town, of some of the members of the board of selectmen, it was realized by the committee that the best interests of the town could be served by deferring the completion of the repairs on the en- gine building until such a time as it was made necessary by the arrival of the apparatus. The total amount of the expenditures contracted for at the present time is $4,325, leaving $1,625 of the appropriation still unexpended. This is the status of the action of your committee at the present date, and is hereby respectfully submitted. W. E. HARMON, Chairman. DAN'L G. TYLER, E. K. HOUGHTON, B. C. WHITCHER, QUINCY BICKNELL, JR. Mr. Webster Smith moved that the gentlemen named in the Article be chosen a committee to carry out the recom- mendations thereof. Mr. Clapp moved an amendment, which was accepted by Mr. Smith, and it was unanimously 58 Voted, That the contracts made by Messrs. Harmon, Tyler, Houghton, Whitcher, Bicknell and Nourse, acting as a purchasing committee in behalf of the town with the American Fire Engine Company, S. F. Hayward & Co., and Calaghan & Co., respectively, for the purchase of a steam fire engine, a chemical engine and other apparatus, all as just reported to this meeting by Mr. Harmon, are hereby ratified and confirmed, and, voted further, that the commit- tee named in this vote is instructed to see that said contracts are duly performed. ART. 3. To hear the report of any committee that may be ready to report and act thereon. See action under Article 2. ART. 4. To see if the town will vote to add the following By -Law to Article '2 of the town By -Laws : "Section 12. On all questions submitted for the consideration of the town, in- volving the expenditure of money, the ballot and check list shall be used when requested by twelve or more legal voters present at the meeting," or act in any manner relating thereto. Mr. Geo. E. Muzzey moved the adoption of the Article ; several amendments were made and voted down, and it was Voted, To add the following section to Article 2 of the By -Laws : Section 12. On all questions submitted for the consider- ation of the town, involving the expenditure of money, the ballot and check list shall be used when requested by twenty or more legal voters present at the meeting. Voted, That the moderator (A. E. Scott) be requested to present the foregoing by-law to the court for its approval. ART. 5. To see if the town will vote to establish a fire alarm signal box at the corner of Ilancock avenue and Hancock street, on the petition of George H. Cutter and others, or act in any manner relating thereto. 59 Mr. C. M. Parker moved to indefinitely postpone the subject, which the meeting voted down. Mr. George 1I. Cutter made some explanation in regard to the matter, and it was Voted, That the selectmen and fire engineers be author- ized to locate a fire alarm signal box at the corner of Han- cock avenue and Hancock street, and that seventy-five dol- lars be appropriated therefor. ART. 6. To see what action the town will take in regard to furnishing proper heating apparatus for the Town Hall build- ing, as recommended by the selectmen on page 40 of the report for 1894, and appropriate money for the same. Mr. L. E. Bennink moved and it was Voted, That the (natter be referred to the selectmen, with full power to act in such mariner as they may deem best. Mr. Webster Smith moved and it was Voted, That two members be added to the committee, and John L. Norris and George H. Thurston were so added. Voted, That the sum of two thousand dollars be appro- priated and assessed for the purpose. Meeting dissolved. A true record. Attest : LEONARD A. SAV I LLE, Town Clerk. WARRANT FOR A TOWN MEETING, SATURDAY, June 29, 1895. To WILLIAM B. FOSTER, Constable of Lexington, GREETING : In the name of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts you are hereby required to notify and warn the inhabitants of the town 60 of Lexington, qualified by law to vote on town affairs, to as- semble at the Town Hall on Saturday, the twenty-ninth day of June, A. D. 1895, at 7.30 o'clock P. M., to act on the following Articles, namely : ART. 1. To choose a moderator to preside at said meeting. Voted, That a moderator be chosen by ballot with the use of check list, and that the polls be kept open three minutes. On ballot, Augustus E. Scott was chosen, and duly sworn by the clerk. ART. 2. To hear the report of any committee that may be ready to report, and act thereon. No committee being ready to report, this article was laid on the table. ART. 3. To see if the town will authorize its selectmen to purchase of the Lexington Water Company its whole water rights, estates, franchises and privileges for a sum not exceed- ing two hundred thousand (200,000) dollars. Mr. L. E. Bennink moved the indefinite postponement of the matter, inasmuch as it left the whole matter in the hands of the selectmen, and he thought the committee should be con- stituted differently. Mr. A. S. Parsons hoped that after calling this meeting that some definite action should be taken on the Articles. On Mr. Bennink's motion it was Voted, No. The matter was discussed by Messrs. Franklin Alderman, A. C. Stone, Geo. E. Muzzey, Webster Smith, and H. G. Janvrin. Mr. Alderman moved that the sum of $175,000 be substi- tuted for $200,000. Mr. Janvrin moved to amend by hav- ing the sum $200,000, and it was Voted, That the sum to be voted on be $200,000. 61 Mr. Janvrin asked if the committee could be increased ; Mr. Bennink asked if the committee could be changed ; and the moderator replied no to both questions. The moderator called the attention of the meeting to Sec- tion 27 of Chapter 27 of the public statutes. The vote was taken on Article 3 as it appears in the war- rant, by ballot, with the use of the check list. On closing the polls it was found that 120 votes had been cast, which agreed with the number of names checked, of which 66 were "Yes" and 54 "No," and the moderator declared if major- ity vote only was required, it was a vote ; but if a two-thirds vote was required, it was not a vote. ART. 4. To see if the town will issue its bonds in payment for the whole water rights, estates, franchises and privileges of the Lexington Water Company, redeemable in twenty (20) years from date, at such rate of interest and in such form as the selectmen may determine, or act in any manner relating thereto. No action was taken under this Article. ART. 5. To see if the town will purchase the corporate prop- erty, franchise, and all the rights and privileges of the Lexing- ton Water Company. Mr. Franklin Alderman moved that the words " not ex- ceeding two hundred thousand dollars" be added to the Ar- ticle. The moderator ruled that the A►ticle could not be amended. Mr. Alderman then moved that the Article be indefinitely postponed. Voted, That the Article be indefinitely postponed. Subsequently, Mr. A. S. Parsons asked for a reconsider- ation of the vote under Article 5, but not having voted with the majority his motion could not be entertained. ART. 6. To see if the town will vote to place a heating ap- paratus in the almshouse, and make an appropriation therefor. 62 This Article was taken up on motion of Mr. L. E. Ben- nink. Mr. G. E. Muzzey explained to the meeting that it was desirable to have better heating arrangements at the almshouse, so as to dispense with stoves, and it was Voted, That the sum of five hundred dollars be appropri- ated fbr the purpose of placing a heating apparatus in the almshouse, and that the selectmen be authorized to have the work done. ART. 7. To see if the town will authorize the selectmen to sell a portion of the lot on which the Hancock engine house stands, on Merriam street, or act in any manner relating thereto. Mr. Muzzey explained to the meeting relative to the ex- change of land at the Hancock engine house on Merriam street, and it was Voted, That the town sell to H. P. Boutelle two strips of land 3x50 feet on each side of the Hancock engine house on Merriam street, and that the selectmen be instructed to exe- cute the conveyance of the same in consideration of one d&i- lar, and exchange of land. ART. 8. To see if the town will authorize the selectmen to purchase a parcel of land in the rear of the IIancock engine house lot, on Merriam street, or act in any manner relating thereto. Voted, That the town purchase of H. P. Boutelle a lot of land 10x33 feet in the rear of Hancock engine house on Merriam street, in consideration of one dollar and two other strips of land 3ix50 feet, each to be conveyed to said H. I'. Boutelle. ART. 9. To see if the town will accept and adopt the pro- visions of Chapter 382 of the Acts of 1871 in relation to the as- sessments of betterments. Mr. Geo. E. Muzzey moved that the town accept and adopt the provisions of Chapter 382 of the Acts of 1871. 63 The moderator read to the meeting a portion of said act. Mr. B. F.

SAVILLE, Town Clerk. 73 REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN, OVERSEERS OF THE POOR, AND SURVEYORS OF HIGHWAYS. To the Voters of Lexington : We herewith respectfully submit a report of the per- formance of the duties pertaining to the above offices. This year has been one which has demanded much thought and work from us, as at no time in the history of the town have matters of so important and permanent a nature re- quired the attention of its officers. TOWN MEETINGS. The Town Records, as printed, indicate the action of the town in the large number of articles in the warrants for the meetings. FINANCES As required by the public statutes, we have made quar- terly examinations of the accounts and vouchers of the treasurer and have found them correct. In the auditors' re- port is exhibited a statement in detail of the largest receipts and expenditures the town has ever made in any one year. The public debt, aside from two hundred thousand (200,- 000) dollars due on water bonds, payable ten thousand ($10,000) dollars yearly commencing November 1st,1896, is thirty-two thousand five hundred ($32,500) dollars. The last note due on Town Hall account was paid Sept. lst, 1895, and all now due is on Hancock school building, except trust funds. 74 We hope to have passed by the Legislature a bill which we have presented, requesting an Act to allow us to refund one hundred thousand ($100,000) dollars of the water loan, so as to make payable ten thousand ($10,000) dollars yearly in twenty to thirty years, thereby relieving from_taxation that amount yearly, for the next ten years. Thirty thousand ($30,000) dollars is due on temporary loans, which will be paid from taxes already assessed. The town also holds in trust, for which its notes are given, on account of : Cary Library, Cemetery fund, Beals, Bridge, Garmon, and Gilmor chari- table funds, $11,000 5,800 5,000 $21,800 On which interest is paid, but the principal will probably never be required of the town, as only the income is needed for expenditures by the various trustees. We recommend the following appropriations for the next financial year in addition to the balances now standing to the credit of the several accounts, as per auditor's report : ESTIMATES FOR 1896.

WATER BONDS (ooIn). Notice is hereby given that the board of selectmen will receive sealed proposals for the purchase of two hundred Lexington (Gold) Water Bonds of the denomination of $1000 each, bearing interest at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum. Said bonds are dated November 1st, 1895, and mature as follows: Ten bonds November 1st, 1896, and ten bonds each year thereafter on November 1st until and including November 1st, 1915. Proposals must be left at the office of the selectmen on or before SATURDAY, at 3 o'clock P. M., November 2nd, 1895, at which time they will be opened. Certified copies of votes and other informa- tion may be obtained at the office of Messrs. Smith and Ludden, 5 Pem- berton Square, Boston. The selectmen of Lexington reserve the right to reject any and all proposals. The said bonds and interest shall be made payable in gold coin of the TJ. S. of standard weight and fineness. WEBSTER SMITH, GEORGE E. MUZZEY, EDWIN S. SPAULDING, Selectmen of Lexington. We received eight bids, ranging from $102.04to$103.2795, at which last-named price they were awarded to Brewster, Cobb & Estabrook, their bid being the highest, making net amount of interest the town pays three sixty per cent., and yielding, with premium and accrued interest, from Novem- her 1, 1895, date of bonds, $7465.67, which we received De- cember 10, 1895, and passed to credit of water works, and interest at which last named date, the company transferred the property to Lexington, and our income began. PURCHASE OF WATER WORKS. By vote of the town, passed May 25, 1895, the selectmen were appointed a committee to obtain from the Lexington Water Company a price at which it would sell its property to the town. At a town meeting held June 29, 1895, upon report of the selectmen, it was voted that the selectmen be authorized to purchase the property and franchise of Lexington Water Company at a price not exceeding two hundred thousand 77 ($200,000) dollars. August 3, 1895, we issued and circu- lated, with warrant for town meeting called for August 17, 1895, the following : LEXINGTON, August 3d, 1895. To the People of Lexington : Acting under the vote of the town, passed at a meeting of the town held June 29th, 1895, your selectmen have pur- chased the whole property of the Lexington Water Com- pany for two hundred thousand dollars. The property of the company was stated with some detail in a report of a committee of the town, made previous to the last town meeting. Since that time the company has expended sever- al thousand dollars in the extension of its mains and in pur- chasing and putting in operation a Bacon Air Lift Pump. Our purchase includes all the property of the company as it stands at the present time. The contract having been completed, we are now free to state reasons which led us to unanimously consent to this purchase. We became convinced that it would be to our advantage as a town, as well as to the citizens, as water takers, if the town controlled its water supply. The old contract with the water company having expired, the cost to the town for the present year for the use of hydrants and other purposes would have been upwards of four thousand dollars. The company had entire control of its water rates, and we had reason to believe that an increase in price was contem- plated. There is little doubt that the gross receipts of the company for the present year would have been upwards of twelve thousand dollars, with the prospect of a rapid in- crease in succeeding years. The cost of operating the works at the present time is not over three thousand dollars per year. We are confident that the town can borrow the amount required to pay for the property at about three and one-half per cent. per annum. At this rate, taking the in - 78 come of the present year as a basis, the profit to the town will at the outset be considerable, and with prudent manage- ment will rapidly increase. We think it can be arranged so that this debt can be ex- tended over a long series of years, and that it is possible for the town to pay it without direct taxation to a greater ex- tent than would be necessary to meet the cost of hydrants and for other water purposes if the purchase had not been made. We believe that the value of the works and of the business of the company would have very rapidly increased, and we are sure that the price which we are to pay for the property is much less than we should be compelled to pay if the pur- chase were delayed. We are equally confident that it was prudent policy for the town to obtain the works by negotia- tion rather than by compelling the company to sell under the provisions of its charter. Water has an established commercial value, and the value of the works depends very largely upon the quality and the quantity of the water distributed. The quality of our water is unsurpassed ; the quantity distributed is very large in comparison with the size of our town. There has been considerable complaint in dry seasons of the insufficiency of the supply for lawns and streets, but the Lexington Water Company has stood above the average of municipal or private companies in these particulars. The works and the business of the company were in excel- lent shape to sell, and it would have made a very strong case before a commission appointed to determine the value of its property. Even since the town authorized us to pur- chase, the situation has very materially changed. The capacity of the deep well, as developed by the Bacon pump to which we have referred, adds very greatly to the value of the property. This pump has been put in under a contract with the Knowles Steam Pump Works, guarantee- 79 ing that it will pump and that the well will supply 150,000 gallons per day for ninety consecutive days. The pump has been in operation during the past month and far exceeds the guaranty. The gauge shows that the water in the well main- tains its height, or that it is increasing rather than decreas- ing, and that the capacity of the pump is even two hundred gallons per minute. The step which the town has taken is one of the most im- portant in its history and should command the careful atten- tion of all its people. The method to be adopted for the payment of the purchase money should be thoughtfully con- sidered, and we urge that the meeting which we have called be fully attended. WEBSTER SMITH, GEO. E. MUZZEY, Selectmen. E. S. SPAULDING, The town voted to ratify and confirm our purchase, and authorized the issuing of two hundred thousand ($200,000) dollars in bonds, payable ten thousand ($10,000) dollars yearly for twenty years in payment therefor. July 30, 1895, we signed an agreement with the Lexington Water Company, through its treasurer, Mr. E. L. Wires, duly authorized by the company, for the purchase of its whole water rights, estates, franchises and privileges, for the sum of two hundred thousand ($200,000) dollars. The town to pay for all new construction, laying of pipes, etc., made from date, and the water company to operate the works at their own expense, and to receive the income until the town should make payment in full. We are happy to state that the town was fortunate in having a man of Mr. Wires's busi- ness capacity to deal with in so important a matter as the purchase of the water works, and we congratulate our fellow - 80 citizens upon their acquiring the ownership of so valuable a plant on such favorable terms. The property is as follows : The whole estate and property of the company has been conveyed and delivered to the town. In addition to the franchise and the personal property the estate consists of up- wards of sixty acres of land, as follows : First.—The pumping station and about twenty-seven acres of land adjoining, in which are situated four large wells or reservoirs, and the artesian or deep well, the capacity of which has been so well tested during the past season. This land begins near the pumping station and extends on the Lincoln road about 1500 feet to land of Middleby. Second.—About three acres of land adjacent to the pump- ing station lot on the southerly corner and conveyed to the company by W. S. Seaverns, on which is situated a valuable spring. Third.—A lot of land known as the base ball ground, con- taining about fourteen acres. This lot extends about 300 feet on the Lincoln road, from land of Bennink to land of Newell. There is also a right of way leading to it from Massachusetts avenue, easterly of the estate of Crone. On this land there is situated a large water gallery or well, from which a pipe extends to the pumping station. Fourth.—A strip of land containing about two acres, ex- tending from the base ball ground to the pumping station. Fifth.—About fifteen acres of land on which the new reservoir is situated. This land extends nearly one thous- and feet on Middle street, and includes the land taken from Middleby, Lawrence, and Teele. Sixth.—The right to construct and maintain conduits, pipes and other works over a strip of land twenty feet wide, 81 extending across the farm of said Middleby, from the pump- ing station lot to the reservoir. 1ERAM13ULATION Every five years the town and city lines have to be per- ambulated by the authorities, and we have attended to that duty. The city of Waltham petitioned the legislature for an Act " To locate and define the boundary line between the city of Waltham and the town of Lexington," claiming that land long taxed in Lexington and considered part of our territory was legally the property and within the bounds of Waltham, and an act was granted by agreement with us, referring to the Commissioners of Massachusetts Topographi- cal Survey the whole matter, with power to define the cor- rect lines. We appeared before the commissioners at their hearing and convinced them that Waltham's claim was un- just, and they fully confirmed our original bounds and so is- sued their order. Thus quite a large tract of land was re- tained as taxable property by Lexington. Bounds with Belmont, Arlington, Woburn, Winchester, Burlington, Bed- ford, and Lincoln were found to be correct. BOSTON FEMALE ASYLUM. This corporation having purchased the Morey estate, and we having been informed by parties prominently connected with the institution that they intended to have their children educated in our public schools, we considered it our duty to inform the school committee, and at once to forward the fol- lowing letter : LEXINGTON, Mass., Dec. 24, 1895. Boston Female Asylum, 1008 Washington Street, Boston, Mass: We are informed that you propose to locate your institu- tion in the town of Lexington and intend to send the in - 82 mates to our public schools. It costs us $40 per year for each scholar, to say nothing about the cost of school build- ings, and we see no reason why an institution such as yours should undertake to impose this burden upon the town ot Lexington. Should you insist upon the inmates of your in- stitution attending our public schools without proper com- pensation to the town, we take this early opportunity to in- form you that the town of Lexington will resist such a pro- ceeding by every means known to law. By calling your at- tention to this matter thus early, .we trust that you will ar- range matters so as not to impose any unjust burden upon the town of Lexington. WEBSTER SMITII, ) SS'electmen GEO. E.IIUZZEI , ( of EDWIN S. SPAULDING, ) Lexington.. This institution was chartered by the legislature in 1803 to receive and educate girls from three to ten years of age, orphans or legally bound out during their minority. It was contemplated to send immediately only about twenty-five girls, but later to move their entire number, sixty or more, to our town. This would at once cause an additional expense of one thousand ($1,000) dollars for instruction at forty ($40) dollars per year for each child, and require an addition to the Hancock school building at a cost of at least twenty thousand ($20,000) dollars. We fully appreciate the noble work being done by this institution, but feel that Lexington tax -payers ought not to be forced to pay so much towards its support. No similar case has ever come before our courts, and the legal rights can only be ascertained by test- ing the question before the Supreme Court. As the amount involved will continually increase and be a permanent tax, it is best to settle the matter fully. The fact that at present 83 this institution is pressing the legislature for an act to en- able it to hold seven hundred and fifty thousand ($750,000) dollars worth of real and personal estate shows it to be abundantly able to pay for the education of its inmates. The school committee fully concur in our views of the subject, and attention is called to their report on the matter. PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Only what has been necessary to properly repair and keep in good order has been done. Upon investigating the mat- ter of heating apparatus for Town Hall building and finding that if a complete steam or hot water system was introduced it would necessitate the building of a large chimney some sixty feet high, and that aside from the unsightliness of this the expense would largely exceed the appropriation, we de- cided with Mr. J. L. Norris, who was, by vote of the town, on the committee with our board, to put in two new Walker furnaces, in one of which was a hot water coil to partially heat Cary Library, at a cost of $526.00. We have put in steam heating apparatus at the almshouse, and can with it waren every room, thereby making the in- mates, all of whom are elderly, comfortable, at a cost of $500.00. The vacant school houses in the various districts we find it difficult to protect from vandalism. Fire alarm boxes should be placed in the school houses and almshouse. We have put into the almshouse, Town Hall, and Stone buildings the Underwriters' Fire Extinguisher, which we consider a most useful fire apparatus. POLICE. The officers have done faithful and excellent service, which at times has been most exacting, as the limited force has a 84 great variety of duties. Telephone communication connects their residences, and they can be called upon at any hour of the day or night when needed. ANNEXATION. The committee on the Metropolitan District requested our views in the matter of annexation to Boston, and we opposed it, as we felt, in the interests of Lexington. The forming of a new Metropolitan County is in the same line of absorbing the surrounding cities and towns, and can- not, we think, on the whole, be of advantage to us as a town. It is a matter needing the fullest investigation and thought, and should be acted upon with much caution. Our well known historic prominence seems to demand that we retain our identity as a town, and still be part of good old Middlesex County, which, in two wars, has been the first to respond with soldiers to defend the honor of our country. Some expression in town meeting should display the wishes of our inhabitants. LAND PURCHASE. Laud has been sold to H. P. Boutelle on each side of Hancock engine house lot, for land in rear of that building, on which to erect a stable for horses of fire department. TAX TITLES. The town has purchased tax titles to the following estates in 1895, amounting to $122.38 : Caroline L. Webster, Samuel K. Head, Addie Wilkins, Ellen Turner, Mary J. G. Shedd. CEMETERY BOUNDS. The question of bounds between the Boston and Lowell railroad and the cemetery is being considered, and the rail- 85 road officers have made surveys. There seems, as yet, noth- ing to show that the Lexington and West Cambridge Rail- road originally acquired more than its five rod location in 1845. Subsequently that railroad company purchased gravel on the cemetery side of Mr. Mulliken at three ($3) dollars per rod. In 1859 the town bought, and had deeded to it by Mr. Mulliken's heirs, a piece of land for enlarging its cemetery, " to the boundary line of the Lexington and West Cambridge Railroad." We claim that the railroad company buying only the gravel, the land from which it was taken reverted to Mr. Mulliken after the gravel had been removed, and thus is now the property of the town. Unless the railroad company can find a deed, this must be the case, and a strip of land, from a few feet to about two rods wide, be added to the cemetery property. The grade, however, makes it now unavailable. HYDRANTS. Number now in use, 57. Three new ones have been erected : One on Waltham street, at boundary line of E. A. Mulliken and A. E. Scott, another at terminus of Winthrop road, and another on Plainfield street. STREET LAMPS. Number now in use, 37 arcs, 126 incandescents. Num- ber of nights Lighted, 276 ; average per month, 23. Seven new ones have been added on Pleasant street, one on Oak- land street, and one on Glen road, at expense of abutters. If those passing lamps which are not burning when they should be would promptly notify the town clerk, the neglect would be remedied. INSURANCE. On Town Hall, almshouse buildings, vacant school houses, engine houses and Village Hall, amounting in value on 86 policies to forty-six thousand nine hundred ($46,900) dollars, comes due April 7, 1896. Insurance, forty thousand ($40,- 000) p40,000) dollars on Hancock school house, and three thousand ($3,000) dollars on statues, for five years, and on Stone building for three thousand ( $3,000) dollars, was reinsured in 1895. ALMSHOUSE. The annual inspection of the property at town farm shows it to be in good condition. In the spring we intend to be able, by extension of water mains, to supply a long needed want of water for domestic and bath purposes, also a hy- drant for protection against fire. Number of inmates, seven. Mr. and Mrs. White continue faithful and careful superin- tendent and matron. SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY BELONGING 'I'O PAMPER DFPARTMENT.

The number of cases of claims for aid furnished by other cities and towns, to those whom it is claimed have settle- ment in Lexington, steadily increases, and it requires con- stant attention to prevent our town from being thus illegally burdened. All large places have paid agents, whose usefulness seems to he apparent only as they are able to cause other places to relieve them of pauper expenses. One demands support for a family by virtue of its ancestors having lived here in 1815. STATE IlIGHWAY. On August 2, 1895, we signed a contract with the State Highway Commissioners to construct a state road over Mid- dle street, widened to fifty feet, to extend four thousand feet from its intersection with Massachusetts avenue at Bryant's Corner. The price was made in detail as to excavations and filling under the constant supervision of their state engineer. We were not able to fully complete before the frost came, but expect to resume work in the early spring. We were enabled to give work to our townsmen, and feel much pleased with the progress made. The state has paid us four thousand one hundred and fifty- nine and -ioftb' ($4159.49) dollars, which we passed to the credit of highways, as the work was done under that depart- ment. As the town authorized a contract only from Grape Vine Corner to Bryant's Corner, it will be necessary to fur- ther empower us to make an additional one to the Lincoln line, about three miles. 89 HIGHWAYS. In the early spring much work was done on all the roads to put them in proper condition, after which the Bedford road was completed to the line and the county commission- ers have viewed the same, accepting as satisfactory the road- bed, but withholding payment of award pending the decision of the Supreme Court with regard to removing walls. We moved back, from one to eleven" feet (at a considerable ex- pense), the fine row of maple trees near the Reed place, as the new location required cutting them down unless we did. We have purchased of A. B. Black, a new snow plough, which works very satisfactorily, and have had the old one repaired, the cost of both being sixty-five ($65) dollars. A new horse has been bought for one hundred and sixty-five ($165) dollars, to replace one which we were obliged to kill, as he stepped, while at work, on a sharp root, and the veterinary surgeon, alter doing all he could for him, pro- nounced him incurable. We picked and re -rolled, with the steam roller, the entire length of Massachusetts avenue, from the common to the Arlington line, putting in gravel where needed, in connec- tion with the work on state highway. There has been expended on the highways thirteen thou- sand eight hundred and sixty-three and ph ($13,863.58) dol- lars. Of this sum, four thousand one hundred and fifty- nine and TIAT ($4,159.49) dollars has been returned by the state on account of state highway, and there is due from the state two hundred and seventeen ($217) dollars approved. We have from two to three hundred tons of stone at the crusher ready for use, costing about one hundred ($100) dollars. In addition to this, there is enough lumber and a sufficient number of posts for the railing of the street when 90 needed, a portion of which is already erected. All of which expense has been paid by the town and will be reimbursed by the state.

We purchased and set up a stone crusher and it will be used to great advantage, not only in connection with the building of the state highway, but by enabling us hereafter to have proper material to construct stone -based roads over the entire town. It was required by our contract with the state to roll the road bed with a steam roller, and we de- cided that instead of hiring a roller at twelve dollars a day, we would hire a new one of the very latest pattern of Kelly & Co., manufacturers, for the sum of five hundred dollars per year for two years, with the privilege of becoming its owners by paying two thousand ($2,000) dollars at the ex- 91 piration of that time. The amount received from the state will thereby pay very largely for a much needed machine for road building. WEBSTER SMITH, GEORGE E. MUZZEY, EDWIN S.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen of the Towne. of Lex- ington : The board of engineers submit the following report : Number of alarms for the year ending Jan. 1, 1896, eleven, as follows : Jan. 2. Shed owned by H. P. Boutelle. Jan. 9. House owned by H. L. Wellington. Jan. 23. Buildings owned by Miss Alice B. Cary. Feb. 11. Block owned by H. P. Boutelle. April 13. House owned by M.

Barn owned by city of Cambridge. Nov. 14. House owned by Chandler R. Richardson. The improvements in the department since last year in having placed in commission new and modern apparatus are well known and we need not dwell upon them. We find that the new chemical engine is too heavy for one horse to draw, the weight being 3200 lbs. not including the men necessary to operate the machine, which will in- crease the weight to nearly two tons—that no horse can run with such a load any distance must be admitted by everyone, and as a chemical is universally admitted to be of the great- est service at the beginning of a fire, it seems to us that another horse should be provided for the same in the near future. 96 We found it necessary to take the old machines out of commission since it required a sufficient number of men to draw them to a fire and the appropriation of last year was inadequate to continue them in service in addition to the number needed to handle the present apparatus. During the last year we have experienced a great deal of trouble and annoyance on account of the fire alarm system. It appears that the construction was faulty and wires secured to small limbs of trees have caused many breaks. While the system is in itself undoubtedly good, it seems to us that it is too delicate for use in a town like ours ; the cost of keeping it in repair will be greatly increased the coming year unless something is done about it. The removal of wires from trees and placing them on poles, together with a general overhauling of the entire lines, is imperative. We would also recommend that the sum of twenty-five dollars a year be paid each "call fireman," for the following reasons : The present valuable apparatus needs men who will take great pains to learn how to use it to the best advantage. For this purpose frequent drills of the department should be inaugurated. We could not reasonably expect men to at- tend such drills for the small compensation they receive for their services. On first thought this may not be apparent, but remembering that during the last five years there have been sixty-four alarms for fires, or an average of a fraction less than fifteen a year ; thus a fireman has received one dollar for each fire he attended. Bearing in mind that at every fire clothing and shoes are more or less damaged if not entirely destroyed, together with the risk of sustaining bodily injuries, we submit that, in view of the above facts, good men cannot be expected to do any extra duty. We have been very fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Geo. McClure as engineer of our steamer. Being well 97 skilled and so situated we have been able to make satis- factory arrangements with him which have resulted in a great saving to the department financially. Unfortunately, he asked to be relieved fora short time on account of ill health, and we were compelled to meet the terms of Mr. Frank Harlow at a greater expense. We are happy to state, however, that Mr. McClure will be ready to return to his post of duty Jan. 6, 1896. Mr. Henry R. Earl, the third member of our board, has been obliged to resign, owing to a change in his business which necessitated his removal from our town. We regret the loss of so valuable an officer. Our engine houses are models of neatness, and much credit is due the men in charge. We ask that the sum of $4200 be appropriated for the .upport of the department the coming year. This is the smallest sum with which we can meet our expenses. No allowance is made for emergencies which may arise—such as the loss of a horse or the damage liable to the apparatus. We would suggest that a saving could be made to the town if the contract for sprinkling the streets during the summer months could be transferred to our department. We are aware that such work is done in many towns simi- larly situated, without detriment to the fire service. We repeat that a fire drill in our schools should be estab- lished, where 400 lives are placed in jeopardy, as is the case in the Hancock School building. Such a practice is indeed needed. The present equipment of the department consists of one steam fire engine, one two -horse hose wagon, one hook and ladder truck (remodelled), one hand chemical (out of com- mission), 1700 ft. of hose, and two horses. Also, one single and two double harnesses, hung on improved hangers, and blankets for five horses. Located at the centre house. One one-horse chemical engine, one one-horse hose wagon, one hand hose reel, one hand chemical (out of 98 commission), two horses, two single harnesses properly hung, and two blankets, in East Village house. The personnel of the department is composed of two per- manent men and thirty-five call men, including engineer and fireman for steamer. In the re -organization of the department the board of en- gineers have devoted a great deal of time, and considering the increased responsibility and constant vigilance needed, their labors will not be lessened in the future. In conclusion we desire to make favorable mention of the officers and members of the department. Cheerful and prompt compliance with the rules and regulations, quick re- sponse when alarms are given, and strict discipline have been the rule rather than the exception. WILLARD WALCOTT, C. G. KAUFFMANN, Engineers. 99 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF CARY LIBRARY. The printing of the new catalogue of the library has been a long, arduous, and expensive work ; but it was completed during the year and a copy given to every family using the library. The cost, amounting to nearly $2500 for 1000 copies, has been defrayed from income reserved in previous years for that object, excepting a balance of a few hundred dollars advanced by two members of the board of trustees. The cost largely exceeded the original estimate, and as the trustees were unwilling to ask the town for an appropriation to pay the deficiency, they have carried it along meaning to defray it from current income, which may be done the pres- ent year. Of the 1000 copies printed, only 500 were bound, the others remaining in sheets. Of the bound copies, only 28 are left unused, the others having been given out to fam- ilies and a few to libraries of other towns, while four were taken from the tables and carried away by persons un- known. The catalogue has been prepared with great care, and it is a creditable and satisfactory work. The wisdom of printing it now seems apparent, though a heavy burden on the resources of the library. It has large- ly increased the use of the books, and the circulation this year exceeds that of last year by more than 2600 volumes, reaching atotal of nearly 28,000, including 6100 from and through the East Lexington branch. Allowing the popula- tion of the town to be 3500, this would give eight volumes to each man, woman, and child, showing that we are a book -reading people. It is interesting to notice what classes of books are repre- sented in the circulation, and the number of each. Includ- ing those from the East Lexington branch, they are as fol - 400 lows, viz.: Circulating magazines, 410 ; periodicals, 1365 ; philosophy and religion, 402 ; biography, 1088 ; history, 1428 ; travels and description, 740 ; government and social science, 328 ; science, 429 ; arts, useful, 433 ; arts, fine, 330 ; language and literature, 788 ; fiction, 16,918 ; poetry, 741 ; reference, 2652. On the first of January, 1896, the library contained al- together 16,129 volumes, of which 874 are in the East Lex- ington branch and 403 were added by purchase or by gift during the year. On the annual examination in August, every book was found to be present or accounted for, a fact creditable to the care and vigilance of the librarians as well as the morality of our people. The tables of the library room are supplied with thirty- seven magazines, besides one daily and one weekly paper, and the East Lexington branch with twelve, and two ad- ditional ones donated by Mr. Childs and Miss Carrie Fiske. Miss Emma J. Fiske has given three volumes to that library. The number of books repaired during the year amounts to 1604, and the whole cumber of families in town using the library to 602 ; new applications to draw books, 145. The average number of readers in the branch per day has been thirteen. The amount of tines collected is $58.16 ; paid for express- age by the librarian, $20.16 ; and the balance given to the treasurer, $38.00. During a few weeks the librarian has kept a record of the visitors to the room for drawing books or reading at the tables, and the average has been in the afternoon 61, and in the evening 25 ; this is exclusive of Saturdays, when the pressure of other duties has prevented the number being taken. The record would indicate that at least 100 persons use the library daily during the winter months. In the registry of visitors from other places during the year, we find the names of 2171 persons, representing thirty- 101 seven states and the District of Columbia, besides Canada, England, France; Scotland, Congo Africa, Mauritius, Ja— pan, and the Hawaiian Islands. The trustees gratefully acknowledge the gift of sixty-three books and six pamphlets, some of which are valuable and of use in the library. While they are always glad to receive such books, those of a different character, no longer of any use and that people want to get rid of, they do not care to have and cannot put on the over -crowded book shelves. The following are names of those from whom gifts have been received, viz : W. H. Baldwin, 0. W. Fiske, W. H. Whit- more, K. E. Sanborn, J. P. Munroe, E. G. Porter, B. E. Whitcher, J. P. Fox, R. P. Clapp, the United States and Massachusetts Governments, Harvard and Amherst Col- leges, the University of Pennsylvania, Massachusetts Chari- table and Mechanics Association, Bunker Hill Monument Association, Boston, Salem and Concord public libraries, and the city of Boston. The trustees are sometimes asked why the library should not be open every night in the week except Sunday. If it be a good thing to have this pleasant place of resort open on three evenings of the week for people to read magazines, papers and books, so liberally supplied, why should it not be open for six evenings in the week? To this they have but one answer. Undoubtedly it would be a good thing, and they would gladly see it done if the town is ready to in- cur the additional expense of warming, lighting, and ser- vice. What this would be, they are not prepared to say definitely, probably two or three hundred dollars a year. If any considerable number of people desire to use the advantages of the library every evening for study and im provement, it would be a wise and good thing to open it. Surely then, it should be done. It is said that wherever this has been done it has resulted in largely increasing the attendance and the use of the library. But the trustees are 102 powerless to act in the matter without instruction from the town, and are not prepared to make any recommendation. ` Respectfully submitted on behalf of the trustees, C. A. STAPLES, Chairman. 103 REPORT OF TREASURER OF CARY LIBRARY FUNDS.

Your committee submit for your consideration the follow- ing needs necessary at the cernetery : The building used as tool house and waiting room needs to be shingled and some other repairs. We would recommend that so much of the boundary fence on each side of the entrances to the ceme- tery, as the abutters are willing to have removed, be taken away, and trees be set in the place ; also that water be car- ried to the lot in the western part of the cemetery and a building erected over the same. There are but four lots to sell, as the grounds were originally laid out, but by using a strip of land next to Mr. Bacon's and Mr. Russell's, that was once intended as a driveway, which would make sixteen lots, and that portion next to the railroad, which the town has voted to use, giving twenty more, with six or eight made available by grading, and three or four more if the gateway at the lower entrance was closed, would give some fifty lots to dispose of, and your committee would recommend that such disposition he made of these sections. For the cost of making these changes and for the care of the grounds, we would ask that it be taken from the unexpended balance standing to their credit. Respectfully submitted, ABBOTT S.

The Board of Health submits herewith the following re- port of their doings for the year 1895 : Since the last report of the Board of Health a change has been made in the method of electing the members of the board. Now one member is elected each year for the period of three years, which is a decided advantage to the work and organization of the board over the old method of elect- ing the full board each year, The personnel of the board now is : Mr. A. B. Smith, whose term expires March, 1896 ; Dr. H. C. Valentine, whose term expires March, 1897 ; Mr. C. M. Parker, whose term expires March, 1898. One member will be elected this year to fill Mr. Smith's place, whose term expires in March.

Compared with neighboring favorable. 1 3 7 3 towns the showing is most For several years past the piggeries in various parts of the town have, at times, given considerable trouble. The present board, after careful consideration, adopted the sys- tem of giving permits for the keeping of swine, a practice which has thus far given very good satisfaction. The whole number of permits granted is sixteen, the board finding it unnecessary to issue permits for a less number than twenty pigs. On complaint of citizens, the delivery and unloading of manure at the Lexington station was ordered discontinued. This has undoubtedly been an inconvenience to the farmers of the town, and the board thinks that if proper pressure 108 were brought to bear, the railroad company might be per- suaded to provide a suitable place for such delivery, either above or below the station. Three cases of glanders were reported from the Denison stock farm, East Lexington. The horses were ordered killed ; post mortem examination failed to show signs of the disease in any of the animals. At the last session of the General Court, the plumbing law was so amended that unless the law be adopted by the town, towns of less than 5000 inhabitants were exempt from its provisions, which has left this town without any kind of plumbing regulations since July last. The board very strongly urges its adoption at the next town meeting. This town is very rapidly growing, and it is but a question of time when some kind of sewerage must be decided upon other than the unsatisfactory cesspool drainage now in vogue, and looking forward to that time the plumbing in all buildings should be regulated and inspected. The odorless cart has done its usual good work the past year, and Mr. Cyrus Martin is again appointed driver for the ensuing year. Following are the regulations of the board for last year, which are again adopted and in force for the present year : Regulations of the Board of Health of the town of Lexing- ton, Massachusetts, in accordance with the provisions of the Public Statutes, 80, Sec. 18 and 19 : 1. The attention of physicians is respectfully called to the necessity of promptly reporting all contagious diseases, according to law, occuring in their practice in Lexington. 2. The Board of Health have full control of all fumiga- tions of contagious diseases, but when deemed advisable by them, the board may delegate the attending physician to fumigate a house, room or rooms, after a proper limit of time has elapsed, but the physician shall in all such cases report to the board the date of such fumigation immediate- 109 ly. The expense of such fumigation shall be borne by the person himself, or herself, in accordance with Public Stat- utes, 80, Sec. 83. 3. Cesspools may be cleaned by the odorless cart upon application to the Board of Health, or to any member there- of, either verbally or orally, and shall be cleaned in the same order of precedence as regards time in which the request shall be made. The price for cleaning a vault or cesspool will be two (2) dollars per load, or any part thereof, and shall be paid to the driver of the odorless cart within thirty (30) days from .the time of the removal of the contents of said vault or cess- pool, or any part thereof. No application for cleaning a cesspool or vault can be made to the driver, but in all cases must be made to the board, or to any member thereof, as provided above. 4. The Board of Health may at any time cause each householder to suitably arch and brick the cesspool or cess- pools on the premises, and provide an iron cover with suit- able ventilating equipments, subject to the inspection and approval of the Board of Health. 6. All complaints made to the board must be made in writing over the signature of complainant. 5. The teaming of swill, offal, or other offensive matter over the roads of the town except in tight or odorless carts, is hereby prohibited. 7. These regulations are made as provided by law, but the Board of Health may alter, amend, change, repeal or add to them at their discretion, and nothing herein shall be construed to prevent the making or enforcing of any other regulation as provided by statute or by any act of this board.

We have had committed to us by the town clerk the largest list of appropriations in the his- tory of the town. In addition thereto is the state and county tax, which makes the list committed to the collector the highest on record. To make any reasonable tax rate on such a List of appropriations required a considerable exercise of our judgment, as we were confronted with the usual diffi- culty in the matter of personal estate. It is rare that any account of taxable investments can be obtained, unless the tax -payer gives a schedule of his personal property. In some instances this has been done, but in the main we have been obliged to depend upon our judgment and assess ac- cordingly. We do not hesitate to say that if personal property were properly and fully returned our tax rate 118 would not have exceeded $16 per thousand. Even while we have added in incomes about $25,000 to the personal valua- tion of the town, the net loss on personal since 1894 has been over $30,000. This is due to the shrinkage of invest- ments of all kinds, and to the transfer of certain securities to mortgages and Massachusetts corporations. The net gain in real estate has been quite large. For the same cause it will be as large again, if not larger. The sound of axe and hammer is familiar in every part of the town and Lexington is being filled with a very desirable class of people, who are anxious to embrace the opportunity of locating beyond the line of electric cars and in a town of so admirable a location as regards air, water and scenery. The work of building still goes on and we trust will long continue. Somewhat different in character are the so-called < < land booms." Induced to purchase small tracts of land in lots of about 2500 feet each, the representatives of " all kingdoms and tribes on earth " have purchased land in an outlying dis- trict. In justice to our duty as assessors and in line with the solemn and binding special oath to which we subscribe, we cannot by any fairness assess these lots for anything like the amount for which they were purchased. Thus hundreds of lots are assessed in North Lexington for a small valuation and the tax in many cases is trivial. There are over 90 blocks, averaging 40 or 50 lots to a block, and a special system has been devised from the necessity of the case to keep them straight. These lots are being paid up on the instalment plan, and when the last payment is made they are deeded to the purchaser, thus adding about 100 lots per year to the tax list of Lexington. Nearly 300 owners re- turn a total tax of about $400, or an average of a little over a dollar tax on each lot. Add to this the various transfers of which we have kept a record and the trouble is multi- plied. 119 Following are the usual statistics : Resident Owners. Non -Resident. Real estate, $3,170,054 $511,087 Personal estate, 428,541 11,954 Total valuation, Gain in value of real estate over 1894, Loss of personal estate from 1894, Net gain in valuation over 1894, Amount of tax list committed to tax collector Town grants assessed, State tax for 1895, County tax for 1895, Overlay, $18 per 1000 on $4,121,636 gives 1053 polls at $2.00, Total. $3,681,141 440,495 $4,121,636 $140,672 33,091 107,581 for 1895 : $69,715.00 2,445.00 3,860.16 275.29 *76,295.45 $74,189.45 2,106.00 *76,295.45 In accordance with a vote of the town, we have measured the frontage of all estates abutting the street -watering dis- trict and assessed the owners at one cent per front foot, and in accordance with another vote of the town we print in an- other portion of the book the detailed valuation and tax list. Lastly, we desire to call the attention of the tax -payers to a very important subject, the Bank and Corporation Tax. By the provision of the statutes the holders of shares in National Banks and Massachusetts Corporations are not taxed. Please bear this in mind—You ARE NOT TAXED FOR ANY SHARES You MAY HOLD IN MASSACHUSETTS BANKS OR CORPORATIONS. But the corporations themselves are taxed and the tax is then divided by the number of share - 120 holders. The result is the tax per share which is returned to the cities and towns in the Commonwealth in which the respective shareholders reside. For example, the tax on each share of Boston & Albany Railroad is $1.69, West End Preferred 93 5-10 cents, etc. If you own a share of Boston & Albany the town receives $1.69, which costs the holder noticing. Now by mistake the shares are often credited to the wrong town, and if no town is found the tax goes to the Commonwealth. Often in changing one's residence the transferring of the stock is forgotten. A detailed record of all shares in Massachusetts banks and corporations, held by residents of Lexington, arranged by this board and com- piled from statistics taken from the office of the tax commis- sioner, is on file with the clerk of this board, and we earnestly desire all holders of Massachusetts stocks to apply either in person or by letter to the Lexington Board of As- sessors to see if our list corresponds with the amount of shares you hold. In this way hundreds of dollars may be gained for the benefit of the town of Lexington, and every gain of that nature assists so much toward a credit item which proportionally reduces the tax rate. At the present rate of expenditure of money, with the increased annual school house payments and water debt payments, this assist- ance will be very necessary, and for this reason we have compiled the bank and corportation statistics in handy form and venture to ask for your co-operation in increasing the same.

SAMPSON, Auditors. GEORGE D. HARRINGTON, REPORTS OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE AND SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS OF THE TOWN OF LEXINGTON FOR THE YEAR 1895. BOSTON: COBURN STATIONERY COMPANY, PRINTERS, 15 SCHOOL STREET. 1896. 187 REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE. To the Citizens of Lexington: Some changes have been made in our list of teachers dur- ing the past year. In June Miss Ida J. Holmes, of the department of mathematics of the Hancock School, tendered her resignation and accepted an appointment with a much higher salary in Cambridge. This is usually the case with Lexington teachers. Almost invariably they are called to better positions. While this is as high an encomium as can be bestowed upon Lexington Schools, yet it is a matter of profound regret that the difference in salaries should be so great that we have been in many instances forced to part with valuable teachers on account of the larger amounts paid elsewhere. However, we are forced to submit to this con- dition of affairs, standing as we do between the tax -payer on the one band and the schools on the other. In line with the idea of civil service promotions to which we alluded in our last report, your committee appointed Miss Hartley of the 5th grade to the grade of Miss Holmes, late 6th grade (resigned), Miss Hartley still retaining the department of history, in which she is well-nigh invaluable. In selecting a teacher for the department of mathematics and to take charge of the 5th grade (vice Miss Hartley pro- moted) we made some search and finally decided to appoint Miss Edith G. Keene of Lynn, who was employed at Bol- ton, Mass. Miss Keene's work is thorough and her method successful. She has paid some attention to the mental branch of arithmetic with marked success. Miss Grace A. Lovejoy of the 2d grade also resigned, and your committee accepted her resignation with profound 188 regret. Miss Lovejoy was one of the most valuable of our corps of primary teachers and when we assert that Miss Abbie H. Allen of Woburn, who was appointed to the vacancy caused by Miss Lovejoy's resignation, has proved a most worthy successor, we feel that it is no small praise. Miss Allen has taught with success as a substitute in the Woburn Schools and came to us with a high recommenda- tion as to ability, which recommendation we feel bound to sustain. The other teachers are doing the best of work and pro- ducing the usual results which attend such efforts. We desire in this connection to specially mention an action on the part of one of our teachers which cannot be too highly commended and which should not he lightly estimat- ed. We refer to the voluntary preparation of Miss Amelia M. Mulliken for a kindergarten course, which preparation is now in progress. It seems fitting that a school system like that of Lexington, embracing such progressive work as the departmental system, manual training, etc., should make some advances toward the well-known tried and proven reform of kindergarten and while the subject was debated, planned and considered in all its phases by your board this unexpected, generous and voluntary offer of Miss Mulliken's suddenly appeared like a bright star from a clear sky. While some assistance will be rendered Miss Mulliken, it will certainly not compensate her for the loss of nearly all her salary. With such a faithful servant as this the town may well feel that mercenary motives are not the universal reasons which govern the action of a teacher—that a dispo- sition to benefit the town in the cause of learning is just as sincere as were the strong patriotic ideas which inspired two of Miss Mulliken's ancestors in the cause of liberty on the old battle -ground of Lexington more than a century ago. Miss Gertrude Pierce has been teaching in Miss Mulliken's room with good success. 189 In the High School Mrs. Krauss resigned to take a course of study at Oxford, Eng. When she completes the course there she will be out of our reach as far as salary- is con- cerned. But the old adage that no one is so invaluable that his or her place cannot be filled (and in the case of Mrs. Krauss this is assuming all that the saying implies or carries with it) is illustrated in the appointment of Miss Mary E. Carter of the Brooklyn, N. Y. public schools. Her admir- able instruction in English compares well in every detail with that of Mrs Krauss. More than this cannot he said. Under this subject a word in behalf of the scholars them- selves will he in order. Are the citizens of Lexington fully aware of the fact that a debating class exists id our IIio•h School, composed, not of young men and women, but �of school boys and school girls, so thoroughly drilled and pre- pared by the department of Lnglish that they can fully express themselves not only in the privacy of their meetings but on the platform in public—that they have repeatedly vanquished the picked representatives of schools of other towns for clearness in ar, inaent and in that other most essential gift in debate—the rapidity to ''think on their feet." Do you fully realize what your department of I:n„lisla is doing for our scholars? We think if you attend the next joint debate in 1Lnicock II011, or a private debate in the school house, you wi11 conclude that the English in- struction speaks for itself. In the Adams School there seems to he a general im- provement, which is very gratifying. The departmental work, temporarily abandoned, will soon he re-established. The sanitary condition is good and the new closets are working satisfactorily. Manual training is taught in the same inexpensive, thor- ough manner as heretofore. We take the liberty to quote from our last year's report in relation to the subject : "This (tile Northampton) system does not make thorough black - 190 smiths, carpenters, or wheelwrights. Neither does arith- metic, as taught in our schools, develop expert mathematical calculators, nor history and civil government, eminent statesmen or publicists. It simply gives the hand the right start, just as the other studies give the brain the right start." Brookline, for example, with an enormous valuation and a low tax rate, has a complete system of manual training, with work -shops, blacksmith's forges, metal working, etc. Lex- ington, we are fully persuaded, is doing the best she can with the money she has. Your school committee would be pleased to close this report with the blissful stereotyped assertion that "all is well." But such is not the case. This town is threatened with a danger which may seriously burden the tax -payers. Grand and noble is the charitable impulse which prompts a man to befriend a less fortunate fellow -man. But it is neither grand nor noble for a charitable institution to come to Lexington, and after causing over ten thousand dollars' worth of property to be exempt from taxation, to demand that the children of this institution be educated free of ex- pense in our already crowded schools, while the directors rest on their laurels—at our expense. Your committee in- tends to ask for a less sum of money than last year—if the children of the Boston Female Asylum, which has purchased the Morey place on Massachusetts Avenue, are to be edu- cated in our schools, the appropriation for which the com- mittee of 1896-97 MUST ask will open the eyes of our tax- payers. It also means a new school house. The larger notes of the present Hancock School are just coming due. How would another long list of annual payments appeal to your pocket -books? This institution has been in Boston for years and the Boston school board inform us that the Boston Female Asylum does not attend their schools. Can it be that what they dare not try in Boston they will attempt in Lexington? If so your selectmen and your committee 191 have met the issue, and both boards have given them a written notice that the matter will be fought over the last rail. The Boston Female Asylum are doing a noble, gener- ous and philanthropic work, and we cannot too highly com- mend their action in befriending and caring for the little waifs that have no other homes, and who enjoy through the benevolence of those who contribute to the support of the Boston Female Asylum, all the advantages possible. But when they spend other people's money against their will to attain that end, charity ceases to be a virtue and becomes a species of robbery, which even lacks the saving grace of Robin Hood's operations, for he robbed the rich to feed the poor, while Lexington is c ertainly far from rich. We can- not urge too strongly upon the citizens of Lexington the importance of standing together on this question and sus- taining the action of the selectmen and school committee. If the past year can be any guide we feel that we are safe in saying that with the balance we have on hand, we can ask for $500 less than in 1895, or $17,000. We ask for this amount on the assumption that we shall not educate the children of the Boston Female Asylum. If we find that the Supreme Court say that we must educate them (and we shall not heed the demands of any lower tribunal) then we will be obliged to expend a larger amount. But being fully im- pressed with the justice of our cause, we hesitate to believe that the outcome will make any difference in the sum to be asked for, namely, $17,000. Being convinced of the un- popularity of an $18 tax rate, we think the town will gladly welcome this slight reduction, on the assurance which we cheerfully give, that the schools will not suffer thereby. Respectfully submitted, ALFRED PIERCE, HENRY H. HAMILTON, School Committee. GEORGE W. SAMPSON, 192 January 1, 1896. To the School Committee of Lexington : GENTLEMEN—The total number of children in our schools January 1, 1896, was 534, as compared with 509 a year ago, an increase of 25. The average membership to compare with the table on page 12 of last year's report is : 1895—High, 54 ; Adams, 87 ; Hancock, 362 ; total, 503. The High School shows a gain of four, due to the pres- ence of four post -graduate pupils. The Adams increase is Largely due to the fact that it promoted no one to the Ilig•li School last year. The Hancock shows a decrease of eight in avera2-c membership. This can only be due to a greater number of pupils absent long enough to lose their member- ship, since the act)U?i membership of Jan. 1 is larger by 11 pupils than last year. We must count it a year of an un- usual amount of sickness. From the tabular view it may be seen that the first grade numbers 82 members against 88 last year, continuing the necessity of dividing this grade between two rooms. Grade 1L, that last year had 53, has had 62 this fall, a number that has compelled Miss Allen to heroic exertions. This number is altogether too Large to put in one room, from every point of view. The grade ought to be divided at once. Next fall we can certainly count on 28 promotions from each first grade and nine non -promotions in Grade II., a total of 65. Experience teaches us that this number will probably be increased by some pupils from out of town. You have contemplated the use of the cooking -room in the third story of the Hancock building for this emergency. Apart from the same inconveniences of stairs and light that 193 attend the use of the sewing -room, there is a difficulty with the size of the room. At present we have Grades VIII. and IX. in the sewing -room. They are thirty pupils in all, and really too many for the room. No other grade is small enough for one of these small rooms. Grade VI., containing thirty January 1, receives the Rapid Class from Grade V. January 12. The difficulty with actual floor space may be passed over ; that of ventilation is more serious. No relief can be had at present by transferring pupils who come by the Waltham barge to the Adams School, as there are but two first and two second grade pupils among them. Fortunately a remedy is offered by the condition of affairs at North Lexington, which may commend itself to your judgment. The North Lexington barge now brings 32 pupils to the Hancock School, the Lexington Heights barge, 37. Of these 69 pupils, 17 belong in the first grade and 15 in the second, making about a barge load between them. If the school -house at North Lexington can be properly heated and ventilated, a school might be opened there for the local pupils of the first two grades, an arrangement that is perfectly proper for a limited number of pupils. Further- more, since the arrangement allows the discontinuance of the Lexington Heights barge, the expense of an extra teacher would be more than saved in transportation. This would give us a basis of fifty in Grade II. next year - No attempt need be made to use the cooking -room in the Hancock building, and a number of the smallest children would reach school without the ride in the barges, which is always more or less of an evil. The two grades at North Lexington could be just as well taught as any in the Hancock building, the crowding of Grade II. would be remedied for two years more, and not least, the expense would be less than at present. If the Lexington Heights settlement continues to grow, it may 194 presently need a two -room house constructed there. It would be prudent to so construct it that it could be increased to a four -room building later. In connection with transportation, it is of interest to note that, of a total expense per pupil of $31.50, nearly $5.50 per pupil has been spent for transportation, much more than double the cost of books and supplies this year, and fully four times the amount usually expended for them. While the lower grades show the above growth, above Grade V. we have to note a constant decrease in the number of pupils. This may be partly due to the fact that the older pupils come to their fourteenth year in about this grade. As this is the limit of compulsory attendance, it must needs have some effect on school enrolments. Yet I can only verify this decrease since 1890, on account of the manner in which grade records have been kept combined. It may be in some degree casual. I believe your proposed offer of a diploma on graduation from the grammar grades may help to check this falling off. The attendance has been good this year, reaching 93.7 per centum, the highest point reached if we except the years 1887 1888, when the extraordinary numbers, 97 and 95 per cent. respectively, were reported. The average throughout the State is steadily rising, especially where superintendents are employed, and is now 91 per cent. Parents have it in their power to still further improve the . attendance of their children. Even our present figure means that, apart from long sicknesses, each child is losing, on the average, more than twelve days, or between two and three weeks of school each year. Again, the loss would be the same if each child was half an hour late every day. This is a bad preparation for serious life. While we cannot claim that every one who is constant in attendance is of the first ability, we can say that they are usually diligent and faithful at work, and those who do lead in all school work are never 195 found among the class addicted to irregularity and tardiness. It appears at present that about one-third of Lexington's children continue their studies through the High School. This is calculated as follows. If there were 100 in each class, and all continued through the High School, there would at any moment be 900 in the nine grades below, and 400 in the High School, or four -thirteenths, 30.8 per cent., of the whole number. To -day, apart from post -graduate students, we have one-tenth of the whole school membership in the High School. This is 32 per cent. of four -thirteenths, or 32 per cent. of all who could be in the High School. This is an unusually good showing and deserves verification on another side. Our school population grows chiefly through the increase in births in the town, or children brought to the town before their fifth year. A few children, only, come into the upper grades from other towns. Thus the growth in the town since 1887 has not yet reached the High School, and cannot until 1900, when the class that began school in 1887 will be ready for graduation. Had we a record of the numbers by grades in 1883-4-5-6, when the present High School classes were beginning school, it would be easy to determine what per cent. of them continue through the High School. But we have no such data back of last year. However, when these classes were at the middle point of their work, in 1889-90-91-92, the classes above them presumably started as much smaller as those below started larger, so that the average class in those years should fairly represent the size of our present High School class at beginning school. The average membership of all save the High School for those years was 373, giving each of the nine grades forty-one pupils. As the High School classes now average thirteen pupils, 13-41 of each class would seem to be attending the High School. This gives 32 per cent. as before. The wood work in the schools has now reached simple 196 problems in nailing, box -making chiefly, and some of this work will be displayed at the June exhibition. We believe we see some gain in use of hand and eye in this work already, though the time is so brief. Much of the work produced has real beauty. The impression is growing with me that useful work in readin is limited to the first four grades. In other words, the pupils learn to read in these first grades, or never learn to read well. Thereafter the work becomes almost of neces- sity elocutionary, a training that has its value in the hands of a expert as a culture study, but in no way comparable in value to the art of reading or getting ideas from the printed page, which occupies the greater part of a child's first school years. On reading all education must be based, however " practical" its tendencies. On the elocutionary side of reading, relatively little depends, and it is question- able whether the common schools have time or place for it. We have many needs for time, and I invite your attention when in the school -rooms to the various exercises classed under the general name, reading. February 5th, 1895, tested the Hancock heating system severely. The day was intensely cold and windy ; at 7 A.M. the temperature was fourteen degrees below zero, and at noon, though the sky was cloudless, four degrees below zero. At the High School, with three furnaces, we could not get the temperature above fifty-six degrees, and were compelled to dismiss the school. At the Hancock, the rooms on the lower floor were at 73, 70, 69 and 74 degrees respectively, those on the second floor, 75, 65, 65 and 72 degrees ; while the sewing -room, now used for Grade IX., was at 73 degrees. This seems to me a remarkable record, probably not to be matched in many Lexington homes that day. The two rooms at the western end of the building had the highest temperature, 74 and 75 degrees respec- tively. The reason is, probably, that the rooms are much 197 exposed to the wind, and in their efforts to keep warm, the teachers, who are exposed to the cold air from the windows, raise the general temperature too much. Probably it would be economical to have double windows on that end of the building. At the High School, the course proposed in my last re- port is being followed as closely as possible. In the first year all are urged to begin Latin, giving English, Latin, and Algebra each five exercises per week, with one in Drawing. For the second year, English, Geometry and Physics are for all pupils ; for the fourth subject a choice is offered between Latin and French. Pupils preparing for college must take both. For the third year all take English and any three of the following : Latin, French, Mathematics and Chemistry. The third year Mathematics is half the year review of Algebra and half the year Plane Trigonometry. For the fourth year all take English, English History and French, while a choice may be made, under approval, be- tween Latin, with one weekly recitation each in Roman His- tory and Latin Composition, and any scientific or mathe- matical subject reviewed. One post -graduate is studying German to prepare herself for Radcliffe. One young lady, who intends to enter the Normal Art School, is doing some extra work with Miss Hilles, the instructor in Drawing, and is allowed to coun the work as the equivalent of half a regular study. I understand that Williams and Tufts are added to the colleges that admit without Greek. The drawback usual to this arrangement is that pupils are thereby debarred from beginning the study of Greek in college. Could we manage to give a single year's instruction in Greek, this difficulty would not exist, but it is difficult to see how this can be managed with our present teaching force. As appendices, I add the usual Roll of Honor and Tabular View, together with a rough list of text -books in use in all the schools. 198 ROLL OF HONOR. NEITHER ABSENT NOR TARDY FOR THREE YEARS. Class.
