Attest: CHARLES E. WHEELER, CONSTABLE OF LEXINGTON TOWN OF LEXINGTON 11 TOWN MEETING February 18, 1924 In the absence of the Moderator, the meeting was call - rd to order by the Town Clerk at 7:30 P. M. Reading of theWarrant was omitted. On motion of Edwin A. Bayley, Edward- C. Stone was elected temporary- Moderator, and duly sworn to the faith- Pui performance of his duties. Art, 3. Robert P. Clapp moved that Article 3 be taken iii', for consideration. It was so voted. On motion of Edwin A. Bayley, Article 3 was laid on the table, by the following voted, Yes -193 No -141. Art. 2. On motion of Frederick L. Emery, Article 2 was taken up. Mr. Emery stated that since the printed report of the Planning Board had been published and dis- tributed to the voters, the Board had made a number of changes and alterations in the report, and would submit .an amended copy for the consideration of the voters. Mr. Emery explained the reason for the alterations, and ans- wered all questions asked. On motion of Edwin A. Bayley, Mr. Edward T. Hart- man the expert, who had been employed and working with the Planning Board was given the priviledge of the floor. Mr, Hartman answered questions and cited many towns and el;rees where the zoning by-laws were in effect, similar to the ones proposed by the Planning Board for Lexington. Mr. Emery offered the following motion. VOTED: that the Code of By -Laws of the Town of Lex- ington be amended by the addition of a new article, entitled ARTICLE XXXI. (31) Mr. William R. Greeley spoke in favor of zoning and stated it was not a fad, giving many examples in Mass- aehnsetts and elsewhere where it had been tried out and proved successful. A general discussion under this motion followed by many citizens speaking. While Patrick Flynn was speaking, B. H. Bashian raised a point of order. that the speaker was not speaking to the :'uestion. The Moderator ruled the point well taken and chat the speaker was out of order. The Moderator stated that he should enforce the ten minute rule, this being the 12 ANNUAL REPORT length of time a voter may speak, unless recognized again by the Moderator. Among other speakers on the question Were Neil McIntosh, W. T. Wadman, E. A. Bayley and Henry D. Love. Mr. Love was in favor of more territory 10J' manufacturing. Put in more manufacturers and cut the tax rate in halves. Edwin A. Bayley offered the following substitute motion under Article 2. VOTED:. That the report of the Planning Board, to- gether with the proposed by-law for dividing the town into zones with reference to the construction and use of buildings therein. be referred for further consideration and report to a committee composed of the Planning Board and the follow- ing six other citizens, namely: Wesley T. Wadman, Dwight F. Kilg'our, Clarence H. Cutler, Edgar W. Harrod, Bartlett J. Harrington and Neil McIntosh, such committee to give such public hearing's as it may deem necessary and to make , its report to the town as soon as possible. John 11. Ilurlburt raised a point of order that in the choosing by nomination of a committee from the floor no person shall nominate more than one member of such com- mittee. The Moderator ruled that under Article XIII, Sec- tion 1 of the By-laws the point of order was not sustained. Mr. Bayley read from some correspondence between h m,eelf and Ex. Gov. John L. Bates one of the best author- ities on parlimentary laws. in which an interpretation and ruling on Section 1. Article XIII of the Code of By laws of 1922 df the Town of Lexington was requested and answered. Mr. Bates stated that this section was sound in prin- ciple and under it a person could on motion, nominate as many persons on a committee as he desired. This decision thus sustains the ruling just made by Mr. Stone our Moderator. Further remarks in favor of Mr. Bayleys' substitute were made by William J. Marshall, Wesley T. Wadtnan and Patrick Flynn. Robert P. Clapp offered the following amendment to Mr. Bayley's substitute motion, Voted: That such Com- :nitte consider the advisability of substituting for Section 19 of the Planning Boards' draft the following, viz: "Section 19. Existing Buildings. Any building or part of a building which at the time of the adoption of this by-law is being put to a non -conforming use may continue to be used for the same purpose or one not substantially dif- ferent and may be repaired rebuilt or structurally altered ; nut no such building shall be extended or enlarged except TOWN OF LEXINGTON 13 upon writen approval of the planning board, a public hear- ing duly advertised and a permit signed by the Selectmen." Mr. Bayley requested Mr. Clapp to withdraw his amendment to simplify matters, but Mr. Clapp could see no reason why he should do so, and the amendment was passed at 10:40 P. M. Mr. Bayley's substitute motion as amended by Mr. Clapp was then passed at 10:44 P. M. At 10:45 P. M. on motion of Edwin A. Bayley the meet- ing- was adjo'trned to March 10, 1924 at 7:30 o'clock P. M.

Reports, eport ,1 and ruled that case. the two meetingsnn`y1be discussed without adjourning one of the meetings. Robert P. Clapp then read the following letter: To the Citizens of Lexington:— February 15, 1824. The Tr ietees of iniac Harris Cary Educational Fund have in their bands a sum approaching $500;000 committed to them in trust by the wills of Mts. Eliza Cary Farnham and Miss Susanna E. Cary and an act of the Massachusetts Legislature (Chapter 249 of the Acts of 1921). It is a little more than two years sine the nronerty was turned over by the individuals who were the Executors and original trustees under the wills. The purnese of the trust, as shown in two circular letters heretofore sent to the inhabit- ants of the Town—one in February, 1922. and the other in Ma~ch, 1923, is broadly speaking. two -fold. First, to use such portion of the fund as in the discretion of the Trust - ccs may be neccssary for nrncaing a suitable site for and erecting, a "fire -proof building to be adapted to and suitable sile, for the safe storing and exhibition of revolationalo' relics and treasures pertaining; to the history' of the Torn_ and to contain a hall adapted to lectures and pr=brie meet- „ s and second, to furnish educational assistance to hors and young men of New England parentage. The trust as a whole is intended as a memorial to the donors' father, Isaac Harris Cary, The Trustees are required. after delermininn the size end location of the Memorial Radio too9"-*' it to the Town. Tncidentallhy the Trustees are to provide for the maintenance of public lecture courses in the bedding, If the project shall be carried forward and com-pleted in the near future. the Trustees now believe that there will available for •t --ns' rrir,rr .always th;rt the Tman shall be wilHnr• to accept and maintain the building—approx- imately "'00,400. The Trustees are not antherized to offer a hnilrling to be used for all purposes of a. Town Hall as that tern) is o"rlirerily understood. but they rrav, tile,' think, without violating the terms of the wills. -rake the building contain SG ANNUAL REPORT public hall available for customary Town Meetings, and for lecture courses and other public gatherings, calculated promote the Town's educational and community life. The present plans of the Trustees contemplate such a build- ing; but they can hardly expect the Town to agree to accept and care for it unless the matter can be so arranged as to fta nish the Town, as a part of the program, an opportunity t o have it municipal offices nearby. Accordingly the "rustees suggest a public hall having a seating capacity or not less than one thousand people to be erected upon a ,t, of liberal size which may be conveyed to the Town along with the building, so that theTown itself may erect upon *e e same land in close proximity thereto a separate struct- eee to contain administrative and departmental offices. if an arrangement acceptable to the Town and one that would result in its taking over and agreeing to main- ain the building, cannot be made. the Trustees will have o erect a much smaller one than now planned—one less • reful and not adequate to accomodate town meetings, since would be necessary- to provide for its care and main- enance out of the income from the trust and leave, as must done in any contingency. a sufficient amount to meet the c`ucational requirements of the trust. . The Trustees, having employed architects upon pre- ''mina.ry studies and obtained sketch plans showing the kind nd approximate size of a building which they rind them- ; elves permitted to erect. if assured of the Town's willing- :ess to accept it, now ask the Town to appoint a Committee to examine the plans in conference with the Trustees, and -"ter conference to report back to the Town full details -'erdrne the project. with recommendations as to the `'.;risibility of its agreeing to accept and maintain a build - r of the character proposed. Respectfully submitted by order of the Board of Trustees ROBERT P. CL APP. President EDWARD P. MERRIAM, Clerk Mr. Clapp's report was accepted and placed on file. Sydney R. Wrighinryton then offered the following mo - tin which was unanimously passed. "VOTED. that in compliance with the request made the communication just received from the Trustees of T<elac Harris Cary Educational Fund. A conference Com- r-i;`tee of eleven be appointed by the Moderator for the nrrpose of conferring with the Trustees, examining their TOWN OF LEXINGTON 31 plans and proposals and making a report to the Town, as soon as practicable, accompanied with such recommenda- tions as may seem best.

TOWN CLERK. 96 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF THE LEXINGTON PLANNING BOARD Presenting a proposed amendment to the By -Laws of the Town to provide forestablishing businessandResidential zones. This report refers to the subject matter of Article 2 in the Warrant for Town Meeting called for February 18, 1924. To the Citizens of Lexington:— The next few years are to witness a very considerable increase in the population of Lexington, attended by an extensive building program. People are moving to Lexing- ton in increasing numbers each year and are building for themselves homes in such parts of the town as appeal to them most strongly. Almost without exception, those who move to Lexing- ton seek homes of their own and by themselves—they are drawn to the country because, of its greater attractiveness as a place of residence, and because the country offers more favorable and healthful conditions for raising their families. The vast majority of these people will make most desirable citizens and it is to the interest of the town to make it worth their while to take up their residence among us and to protect them in the investments they propose to make in the town; it is equally important that those already resident in the town shall be similarly protected. Lexington also needs protection in respect to the de- velopment of its business districts; every possible effort should be made to keep such districts properly located and compactly- built and to guard against the indiscriminate building of blocks of one story stores in scattered parts of the town by out of town operators who buy up old places solely for speculative purposes and with no thought of beau tifying or bettering the town in any way. Recognizing that home builders are entitled to sub- stantial protection in the investments they have made and that communities, as such, are entitled to protection against TOWN OF LEXINGTON 97 haphazard developments of their business and residential areas, the Legislature of our Commonwealth in 1920, by Chapter 40, Section 25 to 30 inclusive of the General Laws, passed an Enabling Act for the establishment of residential and business zones by all cities and towns, as a protection in the respects above pointed out. The general purposes of this zoning act are very clearly set forth in the opening Section 25 thereof, which reads as follows:— "A city or town may by ordinance or by-law restrict buildings to be used for particular industries, trades, manufacturing or commercial purposes to specie ecl parts of the city or town, or may exclude them from specified parts of the city or town, or may provide that such buildings, if situated in certain parts of the city or town, shall be subject to special regulations as to their construction or use. A city or town may also by ordinance or by-law provide that certain kinds of dwelling houses and tenement houses shall be restricted to specified parts of the city or town, or shall he excluded from specified parts of the city or town, or that dwelling houses or tenement houses situated in specified parts of the city or town shall conform to certain regula- tions in respect to their construction or use which do not apply to such buildings in other parts of the city or town. For the above purpose the city or town may be divided into districts or zones, and the construction and use of buildings in each district or zone may be regulated as above provided. The provisions of this section shall be carried out in such manner as will best promote the health, safety, convenience and welfare of the inhabitants, will lessen the danger from fire, will tend to improve and beautify the city or town, will harmonize with its natural development, and will assist the carrying out of any scheme for municipal improvement put forth by any municipal planning board on board of survey or other like authority. Due regard shall be paid to the characteristics of the different parts of the city or town and the ordinances, or by-laws established hereunder in any city or town shall be the same for zones, districts or streets having substancially the same character." Responding to requests by many of our townspeople and knowing that many other cities and towns of Mass- achusetts were already at work upon sirniliar preiects, the Lexington Planning. Board some months ago took up the work of drafting a Zoning By -Law to present for adoption by the town if in the minds of its citizens it shall he found 98 ANNUAL REPORT to furnish what is needed and desired. The Planning Board has met regularly for many weeks and has given careful and conscientious study to the subject. It was at fust thought that the Board could canvas the subject and draft the necessary- By -Law without going to the expense of retaining a technical assistant, but it early be- came evident that professional assistance was required and Mr. Edward T. Hartman, formerly of Lexington, was en- gaged. 111.. Hartman has had much experience in this line and is Consultant on Town Planning for the Common- wealth. The expense of retnining Mr. Hartman has been guaranteed by members of the Planning Board and a few others in confidence that when this report shall have been presented to the town the necessary amount will be appro- priated to reimburse them. The work of preparing and presenting the zoning scheme has also been much handicapped by lack of an adequ- ate map. Notwithstanding these li„nclicaps, it is hoped that a fairly clear and understandable report 'is here presented. Generally stated, the design of the Zoning By -Law is to define the areas where business buildings may be erect- ed and to prohibit the erection of such buildings in any other area; also to define the extent to which double houses and two-family apartment houses may be built within the residential areas, which latter are to be restricted mainly to single family houses. Three 7uc:b1ic, hearings have been given, the first to owners of oierties north of Massachusetts Avenue, Elm, i]ancock ar:1 Adams Streets; the second to property owners between the above section and the dividing line between voting Precincts one and two of the town; and the third to property owners in voting Precinct one. At thee,' hearings a tentative plan was presented and explained, r'uestions were answered and suggestions re- ceived and the plan now submitted incorporates the ideas and suggest' ins gathered from these hearings. It should be made clear at the outset that it is not the purpose of the Planning Board to seek to impose upon the town anything the town does not wish. The Board be- TOWN OF LEXINGTON 99 Heves that a vast maiority of the townspeople desire pro- tection of the character that can only be afforded by a zon- ing plan. and the iloard presents the following plan in the confident belief that it will meet the wishes of the towns- people. Should the present plan be adopted the town is not thereby forever committed to the particular zoning therein recommended and defined,; if conditions in later years indicate the nerd of altering the zones in any respect, such alterations may be made by a two-thirds vote of any town meeting called for the purpose. When the growth and needs of the town make a change obvious, it can be secured without difficulty. Under the proposed zoning plan existing buildingswhether residences or stores, will not be disturbed even though some of then now stand, or are used, in areas where such build- ings or uses would not be permitted after adoption of the zoning plan. Ent if any such non -conforming building should hz destroyed by fire or otherwise, or if its present non -conforming use were to be terminated, it may not he rebuilt nor its use renewed except in conformity with the zoning pian. Ur.der the proposed plan, one family houses may be built anywhere in the town upon any street in any zone provided they comply with the present building Jaws of the town. Stores and other strictly business buildings, with some few exceptions, may hereafter be built only within the so-called business zones which are of limited extent and definitely located. The ordinary "three decker" type of wooden apart- ment house is already prohibited by our •present building laws; apartment houses of three or more floors may, under our pr.7sent building laws, only be built of fireproof con- struction with provision for light and ventilation so as to make it certain that only substantial and well protected at that height may be built in the town. 1f desired such apartments may be combined with stores, in the business zones, Two family houses of the superposed or double deck type with one apartment directly over the other are dis- couraged by the proposed zoning plan --in fact, they are permitted in such areas only as necessary to supply the reasonable prospective demand for such apartments. This is because there appears to be a very general desire on the 100 ANNIIXL REPORT part of our townspeople to exclude double deck apartment:5 as not desirable in any residential section and further and principally because there arc sound economic reasons for discouraging the building of such apartments. Double deck two family houses are probably the ]east expensive to build of any permissible type of apartment; the tax return from them is therefore the lowest and is ut- terly insufficient to constitute their reasonable and proper share of the cdst of educating the two families they accom- modate and of providing water, sewer, fire and police pro- tection, etc., for them. The tendency is to place such double deck, two family houses too close together and upon Tots that are too small, consequently the districts given over to this type of house are usually of the most congested sort and carry the highest and most expensive insurance rates. No town can afford to permit an extensive double deck apartment house development, unless it has also lar=e manu- facturing plants providing concentrated high valuations that will assist in carrying the tax burden. But Lexington is not a manufacturing town and never can be one because it is too far from Foston, is without water power and has no adequate through line railway facilities. Lexington, therefore. cannot permit an extensive apartment house development because to do so would bring in practically double the population with no corresponding addition to the valuation for carrying that population. To the extent of its ability to absorb the two family houses without putting too heavy a burden upon the town, the proposed zoning plan makes what is believed to be adequate provision in areas of limited extent near the busi- ness zones and where the present development would seem to make then least objectionable. There is a type of two family house that is free from most of the objections above noted with respect to the double deck type. Such is the type where the two apart- ments are placed side by side—each having its ground (door and cellar. Such apartments are' here defined as double houses. They are generally considered to be the hest type of apartment houses and are largely used in other parts of the country and abroad. Because they cost more and cover more ground, they are not likely to be placed so near to one another and do not permit of such overcrowding of given areas as do the double deck type. 'Thus they do not to so great an extent TOWN OF LEXINGTON 101 overload the areas with carrying costs, the fair proportion whereof they are incapable of bearing. It is felt that this is the only type of two family house the town can safely encourage. The proposed zoning plan makes more ample provision for future building of such double houses. They may be built anywhere that the double deck type may be built and may in addition be built in considerable areas where the double deck type is prohibited. In addition to the foregoing four broad types of build- ings that are definitely provided for, provison is also made for such miscellaneous buildings as cannot be included in in a group definition, by including them in special sections. It has already stated that one family houses, may, under the proposed zoning plan, be built anywhere so Iong as they comply with existing building laws. The business zones provided are indicated upon the enclosed map and may be generally defined as follows:— In the center of the town, on Massachusetts Avenue a businees zone* embracing both sides of the Avenue and extending from Meriam Street) toward Boston as far as Woburn Street and Winthrop Road. On Bedford Street from a point at and opposite the southerly boundary of the present Colonial Garage, a business zone extending northerly toward Bedford as far as the northerly boundary of Custance Brothers shop and embracing both sides of the street. No more business is provided for on Bedford Street until the Car Barns are reached. That locality being al- ready devoted to business, a business zone is proposed ex- tending from and including the Car Barns towards Bed- ford on the easterly side of Bedford Street to and 50 feet beyond the railroad crossing; a further business zone on the opposite or westerly side of Bedford Street, just be- yond the railroad crossing to embrace the present coal yard property, then no further business on Bedford Streets until the corner of Bedford and North Hancock Streets is reached where two hundred feet on the easterly side of Bedford Street is reserved for business, such section including the *A11 business zones are intended to be ono hundred feet deep from the street lines inward, 102 ANNUAL REPORT block of stores already under erection at the corner of North Hancock Street. - On Lincoln Street at the junction known as the "Five Forks," a business zone is established extending 1 rom the junction point outward along both sides of each of the intersecting streets for a distance of two hundred eet. On Waltham Street extending from Massachusetts Avenue to Vine Brook Road, a business zone embracing both sides of the Street. On Waltham Street at the ,junction of Middy Street commonly known as "Grape Vine Corner," a business zone extending from the junction point outward along both sides of each of the intersecting streets for a distance of two hundred feet. On Waltham Street at the junction of Concord Avenue, a business zone extending from the junction point outward along both sides of each of the intersecting streets for a distance of two hundred feet. On Woburn Street from Massachusetts Avenue to the railroad crossing, a business zone on the northerly or rail- road side of the street and beyond the rrilroad crossing, a business zone on both sides of Woburn Street to Cottage Street. On Woburn Street at the junction of Lowell Street a business zone extending from the junction point outward along both sides of the intersecting streets for a distance of two hundred feet. Returning to Massachusetts Avenue, beginning at Woburn Street and proceeding. southerly toward Boston, no business between Woburn Street and Curve Street in East Lexington, then a business zone embracing both sides of Massachusetts Avenue from the northerly or upper end of Curve Street to and including a point fifty feet below the old Childs Auto Repair Shop property and stopping short of the junction point of Pleasant Street and Follen Road so as to avoid congestion at that busy and dangerous point. Proceeding on Massachusetts Avenue, at the entrance of .the East Lexington Railroad Station, a business zone on both sides of the way entering from the Avenue to the Station. Proceeding further on Massachusetts Avenue toward Arlington, a business zone on the north side of said Avenue TOWN OF LEXINGTON 1o3 from Bow Street to the Arlington line, and on the south side from one hundred feet northwest of Sylvia Street to the Arlington line. The above defined business zones aggregate about twenty-two thousand feet of street frontage which is ahnost six times what the Town now has and is much more than twice what Arlington now possesses of business front- age and Arlington is a place of twenty thousand inhabitants as against Lexington's six thousand. It is believed ample provision has thus been made for future business growth in Lexington. While existing business buildings not Iocated within the defined business zones will not be disturbed, no further erection of business buildings would be permitted under the proposed Zoning Law except within the prescribed busi- ness zones. And should any non -conforming business build- ing now located outside the proposed business zees be des- troyed or fail of continuous use by the present owner or tenant, such building could not be rebuilt or again used for business. The town will thus be assured of more compact and uniformly developed business sections than could reasonably be expected if it were to be possible to build stores in any part of the town and upon any of the streets of the town. Light manufacturing only is permitted under the pro- posed by-law, and is restricted to a limited district adjoining the railroad near the Bedford line. With this general introduction it is thought the pro- posed By -Law which is appended hereto, niay be readily understood. LEXINGTON PLANNING BOARD FREDERICK L. EMERY, Chairman LEROY S. BROWN J. 0.

Y 110 ANNUAL REPORT • MAJORITY REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOARD AND CONFERENCE COMMITTEE Presenting a proposed amendment to the By -Laws of Lexington to provide for Establishing Manufacturing, Busi- ness and Residential Zones. This report refers to the subject matter of Article 2 in the Warrant for Special Town Meeting called for Feb- ruary 18, 1924. To the Citizens of Lexington:— At the special town meeting held on the evening of February 18th, the Planning Board formally presented its report recommending the passage of a by-law to provide for zoning the town into manufacturing, business and resi- dential districts. The Board had been at work upon the subject for many months, had given three public hearings, and had conferred with numerous individual citizens, and the by-law then presented contained what appeared to meet the prevailing desire of the townspeople. It was clearly stated at each of the hearings and again in town meeting, that the sole purpose of the Planning Board was to offer a by-law that would express the wish of the citizens. So when, at the special meeting in question, a vote was passed referring the whole matter back to a com- mittee composed of the Planning Board and six other citi- zens for further consideration and report, the Board, while disappointed at the prospect of beginning all over again, was perfectly willing to do so if there was any possible chance of obtaining a fuller expression of the sentiment of'the town, or if the proposed by-law could be improved in any substantial particulars. The Board and the Conference Committee met prompt- ly and organized by the election of the chairman and clerk respectively of the Planning Board to the positions of chair- man and clerk of the enlarged committee. Several joint meetings have been held supplemented by numerous per- sonal conferences between committee members. Pursuant to the suggestion of the vote establishing the Committee, an additional public hearing was given in Town Hall to obtain further expressions of opinion from the citizens. 'TOWN OP LEXINGTON 111 A sincere effort has been made to reach an agreement so that a single, unanimous report might be made to the town, but that has been found impossible. The entire committee agrees that zoning is necessary and also agrees upon many of the detailed provisions of the by-law proposed by the Planning Board. Mutual concessions that would not have been very serious for either side, would probably have made it possible to unite upon recommendations with respect to business and manufacturing, had it been pos- sible to agree upon residential districts, but upon the latter subject the committee, after several meetings, found itself definitely divided; eight of the members favor the stablish- ment of certain districts for the building of single family residences only, with other districts permitting the building of two-family residences in addition, while four of the members favor one general residential district in every part of which all kinds of residences, single-family and multi -family, may be built indiscriminately so long as they comply with structural requirements of the building laws. Finding it quite impossible to harmonize their dif- ferences with respect to the establishment of one and two- family residence districts, the majority of your committee was finally- obliged to decide to file the present majority report which is hoped may be accompanied by the minor- ity report. The principal differences between the minority and majority of' .the committee are as follows:— MANUFACTURING At the last meeting of the full committee the minority favored a. manufacturing district 300 feet in width paral- leling the railroad upon the easterly side thereof from the Arlington line northward past the East Lexington railroad station to within 250 feet of Maple Street, East Lexington. The mapority of the committee, while willing to enlarge the district originally alloted to manufacturing and particularly to meet the feeling that one such district should be placed in East Lexington, feel it to be unnecessary to injure the residential districts upon the hill in the vicinity of Bow Street and opposite, upon Liberty Heights, by inviting loca- tion of manufacturing establishments at their very feet, so to speak, where the residents will be called upon to over- Ioolt the buildings, and incur the depreciation of values that will result. The majority of your committee are will- ing to recommend the establishment of a manufacturing district 300 feet in width upon the easterly side of the rail - 112 ANNUAL REPORT road and extending from the Fottler Avenue railroad cross- ing, just below the East Lexington station, to a point 2000 feet north of said station. This district would comprise about eighteen acres of land suitable for manufacturing establishments. Terminating at that point a manufacturing district would not approach close enough to Maple Street to injure the residential properties there located. To permit manu- facturing to extend to within 250 feet of Maple Street would be seriously to injure the residential values upon that street; furthermore, to the south of Maple Street there is a very considerable area, extending for at least 1000 feet along the railroad, and of an area, approximately thirty- five acres, where the land is high and ideal for residential building. The minority of the committee favored the elimination of the manufacturing district originally proposed byl the Planning Board near the. Bedford line and located equally upon both sides of the railroad and substituting therefor a long manufacturing strip of 300 feet in width, upon the easterly side of the railroad, and extending from the coal yard just beyond the North Lexington railroad crossing the entire remaining distance to Summer Street, near the Bed- ford line. The public hearings, as well as individual inquiry, have demonstrated no desire upon the part of the residents of North Lexington for any such manufacturing area in their midst; but in view of the persistence with which the de- mand has been expressed, the majority of your committee are willing to present for consideration of the town an en- largement of the small manufacturing district originally recommended at Summer Street near the Bedford line, by extending the sarne south .to Center Street, which is about at the northerly limit of present residential development. Such an enlarged manufacturing district would not, there- fore, constitute any considerable threat to residential values in North Lexington. At none of the hearings and meetings held by the Planning Board, and later by the enlarged committee, have any considerable number of citizens asked for manufactur- ing areas either in East Lexington or in North Lexington, and the present concession on the part of the majority committee recommending areas in these two sections of the town has been made because of the persistent statement TOWN OF LEXINGTON 113 114 ANNUAL REPORT of the minority members supplemented by one or two in- dividual expressions that such areas ought to be provided. The majority of the committee feel that there is no necessity to convert Lexington into what some call a many sided, fully rounded district including manufacturing, busi- ness and residences. Lexington will develop as an integral part of the entire metropolitan district, and whether it retain its status as a distant municipality or eventually become merged with other towns in a greater Boston, the fact is that Lexington as a whole is a distinctly residential district; it occupies too high an elevation and is otherwise unsuited to manufacturing or to wholesale business, and there would seem to be no reason for undertaking to build up artifically what the territory as a whole is neither topo- graphically nor geographically adapted to. BUSINESS With respect to the business districts, the majority of the committee adhere generally to the recommendations made in the Planning Board report. T1ie small business district at the ,junction of Massachusetts Avenue and the private right of way leading into the East Lexington rail- road station has been extended southerly on Massachusetts Avenue to Fottler Avenue to include certain business de- velopments that are already planned. The earlier report recommended a business district on both sides of Massachusetts Avenue, extending from the northerly entrance to Curve Street south to a point n.) feet below the old Childs' Auto Repair Shop. Considerable argument has been advanced in favor of extending that business district, upon both sides of Massachusetts Avenue, south to the junction of Pleasant Street and to include the brick store of E. W. Harrod, hut the majority of the com- mittee is disclined to recommend this mainly for reasons given in the earlier report. The reasons are as follows: first, tol extend such business district to Pleasant Street would be to invite serious and dangerous congestion at the important junction of Massachusetts Avenue with Pleasant Street and Follett Road—a junction point already dangerous and which, if business were added, would very much in- crease the danger to human life; second, to so extend that business section would be to place business upon both sides of the entrances to the two important school buildings located upon opposite sides of Massachusetts Avenue in that immediate locality, and it is our firm belief that the school children in entering and leaving the schools should not be obliged to incur the dangers of a busy business district, to say nothing of other conditions usually present in a busi- ness district, which should be kept as far removed as pos- sible from school children, and third, the Catholic Church has recently purchased land on Follen Road near the Junc- tion of Mass. Avenue and Pleasant Street upon which it is intended to erect a church building and the prospective pre- sence of such a church building and the location of Robbins Park close' at hand would seem to furnish the final one sufficient reason why business should not be extended to that point. Mr. I-Iarrod's store may continue undisturbed as a non-confonning,use. The committee recommends establishing a busines> zone at the junction of Middle, Spring and Bridge Streets near the Grassland Farm, extending outward from the junction point on both sides of the intersecting streets for a distance of 150 feet. At North Lexington the Planning Board originally re- commended a business section,.upon the easterly side only of Bedford Street, from and including the car bares to the railroad crossing at North Lexington. The residential pro- perty owners upon the opposite side of the streets have joined in asking that the two sides of the street be similarly limited—either for business or for residences and, since the land where the car barns stands and beyond is already com- mitted .to business, the majority committee recommence that the business section he enlarged to embrace both sides of Bedford Street at that point. This does not mean that both sides will go over to business, but it places the resident owners upon the westerly side of the street upon an equality with the owners upon the oposite side of the street where they will suffer no disadvantage with respect to future development of that district. The original report recommended that the business district above referred to at North Lexington extend beyond and to the north of the railroad crossing^ far enough to include on the westerly side of Bedford Street the present coal yard property, and for a distance of fifty feet upon the easterly side of Bedford Street, At the request of Mr. Burrill whose property on the easterly side of Sedfora Street .at that point was only partially included in ,the busi- ness district previously recommended, the majority- of your Committee now recommend that the business district upon the easterly side of Bedford Street north of the raihoad crossing, be extended to one hundred feet so as to include TOWN OP LEXINGTON iib Mr. Burrill's entire frontage and permit his property as a whole to have the same status. At the junction of Bedford Street and North Hancock Street the previous report of the Planning Board recom- mended a business district extending from North Hancoc:c Street, north on the easterly side of Bedford Street for a distance of .two hundred feet, being the section now prac- tically occupied by a block of stores being built by the Lex- ington Building Trust. No occasion has arisen for cang- ing the section so allotted to business on Bedford Street, but the maority Committee recommended additionally that. said business section be extended easterly on the northerly side of North Hancock Street to include the property and store of E. W. Ormond now existing in that locality, being to a distance of two hundred fifty feet from Bedford Street. RESIDENCES The principal point of difference between the minority and the majority committee is upon the matter of single- family dwelling house districts. The minority members insist that a single •general residential district only be provided to embrace all parts of the town not devoted to manufacturing and business, and within which all kinds of residences may be permitted so long as they comply with the building law. The majority committee are firm in the belief that the best interests of the town and of its individual property owners will be served by limiting the major part of the present undeveloped area of the town to th3 erection el single-family dwellings only, permitting the erection of two-family dwellings in such districts, only when it shai1 have been determined that successful development cannot be had with single-family dwellings and when public necc,- sity makes two-family dwellings necessary. The several hearings granted by the Planning Board and by the present committee, and conferences held with citizens owning .the major part of the undeveloped area of the town, have made it perfectly clear that these owners prefer a development of single-family homes. The onny citizens who advocate throwing open these areas to indis- criminate building of single and two-family dwellings are individuals living in the center of the town who have no considerable land of their own to place upon the market and whose solicitude seems to be not so much in behalf of 116 ANNUAL REPORT the townspeople, as in behalf Of unknown outsiders who may hereafter feel prompted to move to Lexington and who may then desire to erect two-family houses. The minority members of the committee suggest that all land other than what is reserved for manufacturing and business, be opened to every kind of residential develop- ment, and later, when the need rises, protect the town against undesirable development by restrictions to be then imposed. To pursue this course would be to lock the door after the horse had been stolen. If a man owns a considerable area and desires to dis- pose of it for single-family dwelling development, he would suffer serious damage if, after having held it for such de- velopment for a period of years, he were to awake some morning and find that the farm next adjoining him had been sold for two-family development. It would then be too late to zone the district to head off such development. On the other hand, if all the land wel•e zoned for single- family development and it were found that any given por- tion could not be disposed of at a reasonable figure for such development, the owners and adoining owners could peti- tion the town to have that tract opened up for two-family development. If the change should be a desirable one for the town, it would then be possible to impose terms, such for example, as requiring the houses to be of a certain character, or size, or cost as a condition to the opening up of the tract for two-family development, which conditions could not otherwise be imposed. The minority argue that the town as a whole should be open to al] kinds of residential building and that restric- tions, if any, should be by individual agreement among the owners. The answer to that proposition is that it is seldom possible to obtain agreement of all owners of a considerable tract to restrictions of that sort, and unless all join, none can be protected. Furthermore, restrictions imposed in- dividually by deed are frequently wiped out by foreclosure of mortgage, the owner of which may not have consented to the restriction. It is significant that Mr. Neil McIntosh, who -bas de- veloped a large tract in the vicinity of Grape Vine Corner and who has sold lots to more than 200 owners who intend to build, many of them the coming year, originally sold the palasaa eq of aulllomp so ad/Si of sr, uollrijiull Inotlllet punt thereon. Knowing this fact, and feeling it a duty to pro» TOWN OF LEXINGTON 117 • tect the purchasers in such sales, the Planning Board origin- ally recommended that that; large tract remain open for either single or two-family development. Since zoning was proposed Mr. McIntosh has communicated with the owners of the various lots sold and has found that close to 90 per cent of them intended to, build single-family residences, so that the Majority Committee now recommends that the status of that district and of the remainder of the two- family area be changed to a single-family district. It is the belief of the majority of your committee that a large preponderance of the townspeople are in favor of limiting the bulk of the vacant land to single-family de- velopment, and opening it to two family development, if at all only when conditions change so as to make it just or nec- essary to do so. That but few two-family houses have been erected in the past does not ensure the owner of any plot of land in town that the next ones to be erected may not be upon lots adjoining his own. Let every resident upon the hill in the vicinity of Bow Street and upon Liberty Heights ask himself "Would the value of my property be impaired by erection of two- family houses upon the next adjoining lots?" if so, it would be to his interest as well as for the benefit of the town to vote for the majority committee's proposal to limit develop- ment upon that hill and on Liberty Heights to single- family dwelling only. Let the owners of properties in North Lexington and in other parts of the town ask themselves "Will our property values be impaired, and our places rendered less desirable for residence if two-family houses be admittedl to the vicinity?" and should they feel that the values would be impaired, let thern vote in favor of the majority committee's report excluding two-family houses from those parts of the town unless and until conditions change materially from what they are. While the majority of your committee feel strongly that the' best interests of the town, and of the individual property owners as well, will be promoted by a single-family development, they are not unmindful of the reluctance felt by many to exclude to too large an extent, the building of two-family dwellings. Accordingly they have spent a great deal of ,time studying carefully all sections of the town to discover areas that might, without harm, be opened to two-family development, but without satisfactory results. 118 ANNUAL REPORT For example it was suggested that two-family develop- ment might well be permitted along the lines of the present street railway or upon the highways that might be expected to serve the principal bus lines, but in almost every instance it has been found that contiguous to these highways are large areas of undeveloped lands which can be reached in future development, only by branch streets leading from such highways, hence to permit a more congested two- family development along the lines of the principal high- ways would be to compel entrance to the undeveloped pro- perties in the rear through such two-family areas, and would thus instantly relegate the undeveloped properties in the rear to the status of the properties through which entrance thereto must be had. In other words, to permit two-family developments to line our principal streets vir- tually means to reduce all the vacant areas in the rear to the same .type of development; therefore to open the prin- cipal streets to two-family development would mean at one stroke to depreciate area in rear thereof of the extent of hundred of dollars per acre for prospective development. The majority of your committee, therefore, are obliged to adhere generally to the position taken by the Planning Board in its first report namely, to encourage the building of single-family rather than two-family dwellings. We now recommend, however, a two-family area ex- tending from Follen Road to Plainfield Street upon both sides of Massachusetts Avenue and to the east extending to the railroad and embracing everything therein not devoted to business. On Woburn Street, we recomend a two-family district embracing both sides of Woburn Street—so far as not designated business—as far as Utica Street, and both sides of Cottage and Vine Streets. The above are the only two-family areas additional to those designated in The Planning Board's earlier report, that we have been able to carve out of the entire available areas that would not seem to injure rather than improve the sections in which they are located. By the Planning Board's first report very considerable areas were opened to the building of what were termed semi-detached or double dwellings where the apartments were side by side each with its ground floor and cellar and with a vertical partition wall between. Practically all TOWN OF LEXINGTON 119 speakers at the various hearings and in conference have asserted that to limit a district to that particular type of double dwelling would be in effect to limit such district to single-family development; that very few would wish to build double dwellings that would cost so nearly what it would cost to build two separate single-family dwellings. Because of that attitude, which appears to be very generally held by citizens of the town, the majority of your committee now recommend the elimination of some of these areas. • Accordingly th ey recommend the elimination of the two-family arca recommended in the original Planning Board report along Middle Street and in the McIntosh de- velopment in the vicinity of Grape Vine Corner and Spring Street: and the elimination of the two-family area on Bed- ford Street north from the coal yard at North Lexington to the Bedford line. If and when it shall appear that conditions in any particular area or section of the town make necessary a change to two-family areas, it can be made. SIJ MMARY It is necessary to call up the zoning matter for final action at the adjourned town meeting on Monday evening next, March 17th --practically all other articles in the war- rant have been disposed of—and there is not sufficient time between the preparation of this report and that adjourned town meeting' in which to procure a new map that will illustrate grahphically the various districts recommended in this report. For that reason we summarize at this point the various districts now recommended, believing that by so doing the matter will be clearly understood by the citizens without a new map. MANUFACTURING All existing manufacturing establishments remain un- disturbed as non -conforming uses. In addition, further manufacturing districts are recommended as follows: the first upon the easterly side of the railroad beginning at Fot- tier Avenue crossing just below the East Lexington railroad station and extending for a distance of 2000 feet above the East Lexington station and comprising about eighteen acres of perfectly good land for manufacturing purposes, and a second district at North Lexington embracing both sides of the railroad track beginning at Center Street about a half 120 ANNUAL REPORT mile above the North Lexington railroad crosing and e tending to Sunrmct- Street near the Bedford line and com- prising about thirty acres of land perfectly well suited for manufacturing purposes, a total of forty-eight acres. Districts where manufacturing establishments are to be permitted need not be used exclusively for manufactur- ing; business buildings and all kinds of residences may be erected in such districts, but manufacturing establishments may not be placed in any but the manufacturing districts. BUSINESS DISTRICTS All existing non -conforming business enterprises and buildings remained undisturbed. Beginning at the Arling- ton line, a business district is provided upon both sides of Massachusetts Avenue, that on the northerly side extending as far as Bow Street, and on the southerly side terminating at a point 100 feet beyond Sylvia Street_ also, beginning at Fattier Avenue on the northerly side of Massachusetts Av- enue, a short business district extending to and embracing both sides of the private way leading into the East Lex- ington station; also, just above the junction of Pleasant Street; with Massachusetts Avenue, a business district on both sides of Massachusetts Avenue beginning at a point fifty feet south of the old Childs Auto Repair Shop and ex- tending north to and including the upper entrance to Curve Street; also both sides of Woburn Street from the railroad crossing to Cottage Street; also, on both sides of Massa- chusetts Avenue beginning at Winthrop Road and Fletcher Avenue and extending north to Meriam Street; also on both sides of Waltham Street from Massachusetts Avenue to Vine Brook Road; also, on both sides of Bedford Street from the Colonial Garage to the upper boundary of Cust- ance Bros'. shop and again on. Bedford Street beginning at the southcily boundary of the street railway property or car barns and extending beyond .the railroad crossing to a point 100 feet beyond said crossing on the easterly side and to embrace the coal yard property on the westerly side; also at the junction of North Hancock Street& a district extending 2-30 feet in, and on the northeasterly side of North Ilancock Street and on the easterly side of Bedford Street a distance of 200 feet beyond the junction of North Han- cock Street: also isolated business districts at the junction points at "Five Forks"; Middle Street and Spring Street: "Grape Vine Corner"; junction of Waltham Street and Concord Avenue and junction of Woburn Street and Lowell Street; and a business area to be established at the top of 4 TOWN OF LEXINGTON 121 ' Concord Rill when the development shall have proceeded sufficiently to determine where such district should be placed. These districts alloted to business do not mean that every building within such districts must be devoted to business, merely that business buildings may be erected and business carried on in these districts but not elsewhere, permitting in addition either single or double dwellings to be erected in these areas to any extent desired by the own- ers of the properties. If any dwelling standing in any of these business districts be damaged by fire, it may be re- built as a dweilings, if the owner desires, The fact that? these districts are designated business districts does not exclude residences; it requires that business be locates therein and not elsewhere. Additional business districts may be established from time to time by two-thirds vote of a town meeting as the need for such additional districts develops. RESIDENCES All existing non -conforming dwellings remain undie- turbed. The bulk of the open area in The town is reserved for single-family dwellings because, in the opinion of the majority of your committee, that character of development will be distinctly to the best interests of the town as a whole and of the individuals owning the properties. If at anytime the owners of properties in any given section of the town show that their several properties can be success- fully developed only by admitting two-family dwellings, they may, be a two-thirds vote in a town meeting, have such areas opened for two-family development. The ma- jority committee, however, recommend several specific areas within which two-family dwellings may be erected at any time in addition to single-family dwellings existing or to be built therein, such two-family areas being specified as fol- lows:—Beginning at the Arlington line, on both sides of Massachusetts Avenue as far north as Oak Strut ; also, on both sides said Avenue from Pleasant Street to Plainfield Street; also in Lexington Center, at the east of Massachu- setts Avenue beyond the railroad and embracing what is known as the Grant Street and Fletcher Avenue district as shown by the earlier plan of the Board; also, to the west of Massachusetts Avenue in the district generally bounded by Waltham Street, Vine Brook and Parker Street, as shown on said earlier plan; also, on both sides of Bedford Street from Custance Brothers' shop to Revere Street, and upon 122 ANNUAL R>✓PORT Concord Hill, on the easterly side of Massachusetts Avenue from Cedar Street to and including Lake Street and Colum- bus Avenue. The two-family districts above specifically designated do not mean that nothing but two-family dwellings may be erected therein, but that two-family dwellings may be erect- ed therein in addition to singe -family dwellings at the option of the property owners. As above stated, additional two-family areas may be created from time to time by the town as the need for the same develops. The area in the McIntosh development on Middle Street at "crane Vine Corner" and to the west thereof pre- viously- ri–viously recommended for double -family development is, by the present report, removed front such development and is recommended as a single-family development in common with adjacent areas. So also the area bordering both sides of Bedford Street from just above the coal yardto the Bedford line, which in the earlier report was recommended for double -family development, is by the present report re- moved from such development and recommended as a single- family development in common with adjacent areas. THE BY-LAW ITSELF Taking up now the provisions of the by-law itself, no change is recommended by the; majority committee with respect to Sections 1 to 6, inclusive, that was not recom- mended at the time the report was presented at the Feb- ruary 18th special town meeting. Section 7. Mi districts, for light manufacturing, has been amended in the present majority report by cancelling the Last two clauses of the praragraph reading: --"and em- ploying not more than twenty employees, in any single and segregated building unit." The foregoing cancellation permits any number of em- ployees to be employed and should satisfy the demands of all favoring the encouragement of manufacturing. Under "Height Regulations," Section 8, paragraph (a), the limit of height of residences has been increased to 40 feet. The principal protection is still derived from the limitation to "two and one-half stories" and the increase in feet is given to make certain that no such residence shall be excluded if found in conflict with the provisions of this TOWN OF LEXINGTON 123 Section. The former Section originally prescribing the height of buildings in the business section, has been cancellel, as it is thought it should more properly be placed in the building law regulations. .Should the present zoning by-law be an - opted, the Planning Board will later ask an amendment to the building laws to cover what was originally intended to be covered by this Section. Under the title "Area Regulations" the. first Section has been redrawn to give some further protection than was originally provided. It will be observed that Section 9 now calls for a frontage of not less than 50 feet ana an area of not les than 5000 square feet per dwelling. A lot 50 by 100 feet is as small as any lot should be for a single dwelling house. It was objected to the earlier provisions that corner lot suffered by reason of the customary rounding of the angle at the corner and would place present owners of such lots at a possible disadvantage. This possibility has been removed by the second paragraph of Section 9, which provides that where a curved line has been employed to define a corner, the frontage and area shall be computed as if the lines stood without such connecting curve. Section 13, covering a stall or stand for selling farm and garden products, has been amended somewhat, as has also the preceding Section 10, and the language has been enlarged to permit the sale of cider and like beverages where desired and in accordance with prevailing practices. The language originally employed was intended to compre- hend such use, but in amended form is more explicit in that respect. Under "Exceptions" the former sub -paragraph (c) has been made (d) and a new praragraph (c) has been inserted to cover the use of gravel in the making of concrete blocks; the sawing of timber, etc. Under "General Provisions," Section numbered 16 has been recast to state in affirmative language substantially what was originally stated negatively. The difference is almost entirely inlanguage rather than in substance. When the original report was presented by the Plan- ning Board it was stated that Section 21 entiled "Setback" had been withdrawn in favor of setbacks obtained by special agreement, as has already been done with respect to a num- ber of the principal streets of the town. 124 ANNUAL REPORT While the majority committee still believe that set- backs obtained by special petition and release would be pre- ferable because admitting of greater latitude and freedom of action, such method would take considerable time and the committee has ascertained that building enterprises are imminent that would produce undesirable conditions and congestions unless reasonable setbacks are required. The majority committee, therefore, has voted to restore the ori- ginal provision and has enlarged its scope to include the several isolated business districts at the junction points therein named, to prevent buildings that are about to be erected in some of these districts from being placed forward upon the exterior lines of the streets and so produce con- gestion. It was the original intention of the Planning Board to arrange with individual owners to provide circular areas at these junction points so as to guard against acci- dents, but in some instances, at least, there is not time to carry out that plan, hence the provision for the 20 feet set- back which will produce reasonably satisfactory results. Mention has been made of the omission in the proposed by-law to provide a penalty, and such omission was cited as an alleged instance of insufficient consideration in the pre- paration of the by-law. The fact is the matter was carefully considered by the Planning Board before presenting its original report and it was then decided that a penalty was of little, if any, avail in protecting the town, the only real protection being by in- junction. Further consideration has not led the majority committee to change its position in this respect. When an individual is found to contemplate violating the by-law, the most effective remedy is to enjoin him from proceeding. Since an injunction must be had in any case if an owner persists in the violation of the law, your committee has con- cluded, and in this is supported by competent legal advice, that where the real and effective remedy to be relied upon must be by injunction, it is better not to prejudice the issu- ance of an injunction by providing a penalty, which, if first unposed, might be considered by a court to have reasonably satisfied the requirements of the by-law, row OP LEXINGTON its It is hoped that this report will have given a clear un- derstanding of the plan proposed by the majority committee and of the reasons that have influenced their recommend- ations.

To The Citizens of Lexington:• We, the undersigned members of the Committee ap- pointed by vote of the town on February 18, 1924, to con- sider and report to the town regarding a Zoning By -Law, being unable to agree with the recommendations of the majority of said Committee, herewith respectfully present our minority report. Under said vote of the town our Committee was com- posed of the six members of the Planning Board and the following six citizens, namely: Dwight F. Kilgour, Wesley T. Wadman, Edgar W. Harrod, Bartlett J. Harrington, Clarence H. Cutler and Neil McIntosh. You Committee has held three meetings, the first one on February 22nd, which was attended by four members of the Planning Board and all: six of the citizen members, The second one on February 2Gth, attended by three mem, cf the Planning Board and all six of the citizen mem- bers and the third, held ori March 4th attended by all twelve members of the Committee. The purpose of the appointment of our Committee was to see if, by conference and further consideration, the ob- jections raised with reference to the Zoning By -Law pre- sented by the Planning 13oard could be overcome and a by-law presented which would be fair and just to all real estate owners, and also protect tha best interests of the town as a whole. While the Committee have agreed upon certain modi- fications of the Zoning By -Law presented by the Planning Board .there still remain certain vital differences which have prevented the undersigned members from being able to join in the report of the majority. Believing as we do that the Zoning by-law must affect beneicially cr injuriously,the valueof all real estate to which it applies, and believing also that the by-law now pre- TOWN OF LEXINGTON 133 sented by the majority of our Committee is in certain important respects, far too drastic, and also unnecessarily and unreasonably invades the rights of owners of real estate, we have been unable to agree upon the by-law pro- posed by the majority of the Committee and have there- fore deemed it our duty to the citizens of the town to sub- mit an alternative zoning by-law which we believe duly cares for the rights of a]] property owners affected, and also fully protects the best interests of the town as a whole. The principal points of difference are as follows: 1. The minority of the Committee believes that the plan of the majority which restricts by far the larger part of the town to one family dwellings is too drastic, consider- ing the large area of the town now occupied and the minor- ity therefore in the by-law which it presents, provides for dwellings for one and two family houses, instead of only for one family houses and therein substantially follows the provisions of the Zoning By-laws now in force in the towns of Brookline, Milton, Watertown and Winthrop, which we believe will give Lexington ample protection in this respect. 2. The minority of the Committee believes that the present industrial and manufacturing interests of the town should be properly protected and reasonable provision made for expansion and development in certain restricted and suitable localities. 3. The minority of the Committee believe that the localities best suited for business purposes should not be restricted to residential purposes only. 4. The minority of the Committee has ommited in its proposed by-law various provisions which are already suffi- ciently covered by the building laws of the Town, and have thereby sought to avoid the confusion and possible conflict which might arise from including separate and independent provisions in the zoning by-law. We therefore present for your consideration and ap- proval the following by-law which we beleive fully conforms not only to the letter and the spirit of the Zoning Act it- self, but also will serve to fully care for rights of property • 134 ANNUAL REPORT ownersaffected, and also protect the best interests of the town in general.

To the Voters of the Town of Lexington: Your Appropriation Committee submit herewith their report and recommendations for your consideration. In General In our deliberations we have been confronted with the fact that Lexington is growing rapidly, that our needs and requirements are increasing at an alarming pace. It is therefore imperative that we watch our expenditures with ever increasing care. At the same time we must realize that certain ground work must be clone in advance of actual needs to be done well. This is particularly true of the En- gineering Department work, the Highway work, the Water and Sewer Departments and of the Schools. And in the line of economy we recommend that the officials of the town watch carefully the conditions of all public buildings in the town and see to it that they are pro- perly kept up. That in the purchase of material and equipment those in charge should insist on discount terms and take advantage of same. This we believe would amount to a considerable saving in the course of a year and can be brought about by co-operation between the Department Heads, the Superintendent of Public Works and the Town Accountant. Public Schools In the year 1923 the School Department spent $132, r TOWN OF LEXINGTON 139 490.51 The School Committee estimate their wants for 1924 at $139,410.00. We favor an appropriation of $138,- 000.00. This reduces their estimate by $1,410.00, of which $1,000.00 is contingent. We believe that the amount asked for by the committee to cover the cost of repairs and paint- ing of schools should be left as is and the work done with- out fail this year. This item amounts to $4,050.00 and re- presents less than 1% of the valuation of the school plant. Last year there was spent on maintenance only $1,531.81. Highways We favor an appropriation of $450,000, the same amount amount as last year. We believe that the depart- ment can operate successfully with this amount including in its expenditures the purchase of a steam roller. Street Lighting We estimate that the lighting bill of the town for the year to end December 31, 1924 should not exceed $14,300. This will pay for regular lighting from dark to 1:00 A. M. and early morning lighting plus cost of additional lighting, which we are informed will be needed. The early morning service to extend from January 1 1924 to March 15, 1924 and from November 15th to December 31st, 1924. If hours for turning the lights on and off should be • closely watched it is probable that the town can save some of this appropriation. Elections and Registration Note: There are four elections this year against orn. in 1923. Health Department The amount asked for the Health Department was $3,620.00. This included an item of $1,500 for a Health Inspector. We are not in favor of creating this new office. This accounts for the greater part of the difference between the amount asked for and the amount recommended. Inspector of Slaughtering (Art. 18) In regard to this appropriation $200 was asked for under Article 6 and recommended. This amount is suf- ficient to carry on the work of slaughtering to May lst, after which time the slaughter houses will come under Federal inspection. Water Extensions We approve the appropriations necessary under 140 ANNUAL REPORT Articles 17, 25, 30, and 83, provided the usual requirements are complied with. Sewer Extensions: We approve the appropriation necessary for the sewer extension in Massachusetts Avenue and Charles Street in accordance with Town Engineer's lay out.

HUTCHINSON, Appropriation Committee TOWN OF LEXINGTON 141 REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON HONOR ROLL Submitted at Town Meeting March 17, 1924. The Committee chosen to consider and report on Memo- rial Honor Roll reports as follows: - 1. The Committee recommends that the town accepts the gift of the memorial honor roll on the .town hall grounds from I%Iessrs. Gilmore, Drown and Blake and that the thanks of the town be suitably expressed to each of the. donors. 2. The Committee also recommends that the sum of tvo hundred and fifty dollars ($250) be raised and appro- priated for the renovation and improvement of said memo- rial and that said renovation and improvement be carried out by the present committee. 8. The Committee further recommends a new com- mittee of seven members be appointed to fully consider and report with recommendations at some future meeting on a permanent memorial honor roll. This Committee on permanent honor roll shall include in its considerations and report whether or not the permanent memorial shall include the names of citizens of Lexington who have served their country in other wars than the late Great or World War. FRED S. PIPER. FRANK E. HAYNES ALFRED PIERCE ROLAND E. GARMON 142 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON STONE BUILDING REPAIRS Submitted at a Town Meeting March 17, 1924. The committee appointed at the adjourned Town Meet- ing held October 8, 1923, "to consider the matter of repairs upon, and the moving of the Stone Building" respectfully make the following report: After careful consideration the committee does not recommend the moving of the building from its present location. We hereby make the following recommendation for repairs: Point all underpinning both inside and outside. Repair gutters, covings, blinds, and windows. Paint out- side of building two coats of white paint, with green blinds, and glaze alI windows. Remove all paper from walls of first story hall and all rooms in second story of main building, the walls to be painted. Repair and tintceilings of main building. Paint with two coats all woodwork on inside of main building. Install two new toilets and lavatories, one on first floor and one on the second floor, and provide win- dows for the same. Install one radiator in each of the new toilet rooms, also electric lights in toilet rooms. Paint ana repair chimneys. After securing careful estimates it is the opinion of the committee that these repairs can be done for a sum not to exceed two thousand. Respectfully submitted, CHARLES SPAULDING FRANK D. PEIRCE EDWARD WOOD TIMOTHY H. O'CONNOR CHARLES J. HENRICH TOWN Ob' LEXINGTON 143 REPORT OF SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE Submitted at a Town Meeting June 26, 1924. Town of Lexington: Your School Building Committee consisting of Mrs. Nina F. McLellan, George E. Briggs, John Calder, Howard S. 0. Nichols, James Stuart Smith, Howard E. Custance and W. H. Ballard, appointed by the Moderator in accordance with the vote of the Town of Lexington at the meeting held March 10, 1924, believes that it is essential for them them to report to you at this time the progress which they have made and the problems with which they are faced, in order that you may instruct them as to the way and man- ner in which you would like to have them proceed with th., work which you have authorized. The vote referred to is as follows: That the Town authorize the Moderator to appoint a Building Cotnmittee of seven, of which three shall be the School Committee, to secure architect's plans and contract- or's bids for a new High School Building and an addition of four rooms to the Parker School on substantially the plans as recommended by the Committee of Seven on Increased School Accomodations. It was also voted that the Town appropriate and as- sess the sum of $13,000. to cover the expense of the School Building Committees' work up to and including the building plans and bids for the program already authorized. The report of the Committee of Seven dated Feb- ruary 1924 and presented at the Town Meeting March 10, 1924, referred to in this vote, illustrated very forcibly our unusual lack of school- accommodations and the imperative need for completing, new school buildings at the earliest posible moment to provide proper quarters which are lack- ing to day, and future accolnodations for the normal in - 144 ANNUAL REPORT crease in school population. The Members of the Committee received notice of their appointment on April 1st, and held their first meeting on April 5th ; organizing with W. H. Ballard as Chairman,— Mr. Lowry acting as Clerk. You are all familiar with fact that in order to provide the funds for the proposed new school accommodations it would be necessary for the Town of Lexington to borrow outside of its debt limit by securing a special act of the Legislature. The bol rowing capacity of the Town of Lexington in- side of the debt limit was on January 1, 1924, $142,573.84. Year Committee felt, even though this phase of work was not specifically mentioned in the vote of the Town, that the burden of securing the necessary legislation fell on their E.houlde; s, since, without the ability to borrow a sufficient euri outside of the debt limit, it would not be possible to provide the fends for the new school accommodations. This was discussed in detail at the first meeting, and a s'i,L-committee appointed, with the result that in April, 1924, House Bill No. 1617 was enacted by the Legislature author- izit_g the Town of Lexington to borrow, from time to time, within a period of five years from the passage of this Act, such sums as may be necessary, not exceeding iri the ag- gregate $350,000. Such sums to be used for the purpose of constructing a new Irigll school building and additions to eeisting school buildings where such additions increased the floor space, and for the purpose of equipment and fui- .ings for :aid buildings or additions and for remodelling the present high school building. This Act also contains the direct stipulation that no loan shall be authorized under this Section unless a sum equal to en rmount not less than 10% of such loan, is voted for the sante purpose and assessed in the tax levy of the your in which the loan is authorized. At the first meeting' on April 5th plans for a four room addition to the Parker School were discussed and an invitation was issued to W. D. Brown, Architect of the pre- sent Parker School, to attend the next meeting. At the second meeting, on April 9th, W. 11. Brown was selected as Architect for the Parker School addition. The Committee discussed at length the proceedure which. they would follow in selection of an achitect for TOWN OF LEXINGTON 145 the High School. Ritchie, Parsons & Taylor were, at the sixth meeting held on April 23rd, selected as Architects for the High School. The Committee also discussed and deter- mined at their seccnd meeting, that they should proceed with both the Parker School addition and the High School Building as one project of increased school accornmodations, rather than attempt to give separate consideration to each project, or complete their report on one project rather than on both. Your Committee also gave serious consideration to the amount .of time which was available in which to com- plete the work which they had been instructed to do, real- izing that they had only three months between that time and the probable date which the Assessors would complete their assessments for the year 1924. If action were not taken until after this time, it would not be possible for the Town to vote to appropriate and levy a further assessment for the year 1924. If such an appropriation could not be made, money could not be borrowed outside the debt limit in accordance with Bill No. 1617 which requires, in accordance with the fixed police of the Legislature, that the borrower must appropriate and assess, in the year in which the borrowing is authorized, a sum equal to 10% of the amount authorized. You Committee decided that three months was not sufficient time for them to, determine upon the complete and final plans and detailed specifications of the proposed buildings, have the plans prepared by their Architects, and invite actual bids from reliable contractors, and present the bids to the Town with their recommendation as to the bids which should be accepted. The Committee then arrived at a tentative decisio'i (which was confirmed at a later meeting) that it would be for the best interests of the Town for them to determine on the type and kind of buildings which they would recom- mend secure from their Architects plans and specifications of the type of buildings determined upon, with an expres- sion of opinion from the Architects, based. on previous ex- perience with the construction of similiar buildings, as to their cost, also to secure estimates based on said plans and specifications. These facts, in the opinion of the Commit- tee, would furnish the Town with sufficient information so that they might take definite action at a Town meeting to be held prior to July 1, in respect to authorizing' a 'Corn - 146 ANNUAL REPORT rnittee to construct such type buildings and authorize the loans and appropriations necessary in order to provide the funds to pay for erection of such buildings. Your committee has prepared, and present for your consideration, plans of the type and kind of buildings which they recommend you authorize constructed, together with contractors' estimates and architects' opinions as to the probable cost of such buildings. The Committe feel the contractors' estimates secured, furnish sufficient inform- ation in regard to the probable cost of the proposed build- ings for you to authorize construction of the buildings and the borrowing and appropriation of the money necessary to constrgct them. The estimats of the cost for both buildings and equipment are as follows: A four room addition to the Parker School with the westerly half of the basement floor available for play -room or community purposes,—the westerly half of the basement would have full sized windows on the West and nearly full sized windows on the South and could be used for twd, future class rooms. Estimated cost of construction, in- cluding grading, relocation of driveway and additions to plumbing and heating equipment— $58,800. New furniture and equipment 2,000. Total estimated cost for Parker School 60,800. A new Senior High School to be placed directly south of an adjoining the present High School with such altera- tions as are necessary to a portion of the Massachusetts Avenue frontage of the present High School Building as are essential in order to produce a single building of uniform appearance; Corridors in the present High School would be continued in the new building and a new enclosed fire- proof stairwell at the northerly end of .the new building would replace the open stairway in the present High School Building, to be available for a fire exit from the present building. The new senior high school building will provide the equivalent of twenty rooms and gymnasium 66' x80' in the basement, and a street floor auditorium with a seating capa- city of. over 500. The gymnasium, auditorium and lunch room. in the basement will be available for both junior and senior high school pupils. TOWN OF LEXINGTON 147 The estimated cost of the new building is $346,037. Your present High School Building was erected about twenty years ago and will require extensive alterations to plumbing, electric wiring and exit facilities. One motley)) heating plant installed in the new: building, and the re- moval of the present heating plant in the High School Building will mean a substantial saving in the cost of heat- ing the present building. Two additional class rooms will be constructed on the top floor of the building; numerous other alterations and repairs will be required in order to bring the present build- ing up to the present State requirements. Structural' al- terations will ihave to be made to a portion of the Massa- chusetts Avenue face of the building. All of these items we estimate will cost $53,000. We estimate the cost of furniture and equipment re- quired for the present Ifigh School, when used as a junior high school, and furniture and equipment for the new Senior High School, to be $3n,000. All of these estimates give us a total of $494,837. Your Committee feels that some of the items which are included in these estimates may be omitted, and that further sav- ing may be made so that we recommend you vote ,to ap- propriate the sum of $480,000. to be assessed and borrowed as follows :— A fifteen year loan outside the debt limit in accordance with House Bill No. 1617—$350,000. A twenty year loan inside the debt limit—$91,500. Appropriate and assess, in accordance with the terms of Chapter 338, the Acts of 1923, a sum not less than 25 cents for each $1000. of the assessed valuation of the Town of Lexington—$3,500. Appropriate and assess, in accordance with House Bill No. 1617, Chapter 294, Acts 1924, the balance of the $35,000. required after deducting from the same the $13,- 000. already appropriated for this purpose by vote of the Town on March 10, 1929. Total additional appropriation to be made $467,000. Appropriation already made 13,000. Total amount required $480,000 148 ANNUAL REPORT The Committe has prepared for your use, with tha assistance of E. C. Stone, Town Counsel, and Theodore N. Wardell, Director of Accounts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, a vote which will be sufficient for you to authorize and instruct a Committee, or this Committee if you so desire, to proceed to erect .the buildings which they have recommended, and which will give the required authority to the proper officials of the Town to levy the necessary assessments and negotiate the loans recommend- ed. The Committee will be pleased to add to the inform- ation which they have presented in this report, any further facts which you would like to have in regard to -this matter. MRS. NINA F.

TOWN OF LEXINGTON 190 REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON COLLECTION OF GARBAGE Submitted at Town Meeting June 26, 1921. The Committee, appointed by vote of the Town o,. March 10, 1921 to investigate the subject of Garbage col- lection, cost of Handling and disposal of same, herewith submit the following report: Your committee has made personal calls on the Boards of Health of .the neighboring towns of Arlington, Win- chester, Belmont, Concord, and also Brookline. In all these communities, the Garbage is now collected with town equipment and by Town Employees. In every instance your committee was warned not to give any con- sideration to the contract system. Admittedly, from the standpoint of Dollars and Cents, much less expensive, the contract system of handling the collection of Garbage has proven unsatisfactory, a constant source of trouble to Town Officials and citizens alike and speedily given up by these several Towns. Your committee would submit for consideration a few of the figures obtained by them from the above named towns and which proved of value in estimating the cost to Lexington for similar service. In Brookline Number of people served Equipment Number of collections Amount of Garbage collected Gross Cost 1923 $40,000 Receipts from sale 12,000 Net Cost 41,000 4-31,4 ton trucks 1-21/2 ton truck 11—Men $28,000 150 ANNUAL REPORT 3 weekly (Stores, Hotels, rest- aurants daily) 7,000 tons 1924 $43,000 6,000 $37,000 In Arlington Number of people served Equipment Number of collections Amount of Garbage collected Gross Cost 1923 $19,000 Receipts from sale 3,200 Net Cost $15,800 22,00 5 single teams 10 men 2 weekly (Stores hotels, And restaurents 3 weekly) 1750 tons 1924 $19,000 1,200 $17,800 In Winchester Number of people served Equipment Number of collections Amount of Garbage collected Gross Cost 1923 $,8000 Receipts from sale 1,400 Net Cost 11,000 2 single teams 1 Ford truck 6 Men 2 weekly 8 weekly in center during summer months 1000 tons $6,600 TOWN OF LEXINGTON 151 1924 $8,000 700 $7,300 In Belmont Number of people served Equipment Number of collections Gross Cost 1923 $19,600 Receipts from sale 14,000 2 single teams 1 Ford truck 6 Men Attempting 2 a week—at pre- sent every 4.th or 5th day. Amount not known 1924 $19,000 1,400 $17,600 In Belmont, it should be stated this system has been running but on year. Concord has just recently given up the contract system and is now collecting from a limited area with, 1 Ford truck and 2 men. For this purpose the Town appropriated $4000.- 00 to carry on the work for eight months with the pro- viso that the families served bear one-half the expense. This, it has been estimated, would cost about $3.00 per family. In addition to the above data, before attempting to reach any conclusion as to the cost to the Town of Lexing- ton, your committee consulted the several local contractors who had a year ago submitted bids for doing this work, they have interviewed a number of persons who are now gathering the Garbage from the Center of the Town for their own use, a,nd visited three of the large piggeries relative to the sale of the Garbage collected. Lexington has approximately 7000 people and 1300 houses that would be entitled to this service. To provide two collections a week from these 1300 families and daily collections from the stores would require the service of four men and either two single teams or possibly one single team and a small truck at a cost of $8000. 152 ANNUAL REPORT In view of the number of citizens that keep; one or mere pigs and the much greater number that keep hens to which they feed the refuse from the table, it is unwise to assume that this Town could collect probably over 600 tons of garbage a year. From the sale of this the Town Could probably realize about $500 making the net cost for a com- plete service around $7500. The committee of course ap- preciates that fewer collections or collections from the con- gested districts only, or the co-operative plan as being tried out in Concord would lower this cost in proportion and the citizens might care to make a start on one or the other of these propositions. Your committee, however, in seeking the opinions of citizens in various sections of the Town, found no great demand for this service except in one section of East Lexington, where the officers of the Civic Associa- tion stated the need of caring for the garbage in their district was urgent. It is fair to state that all .the citizens approached would like this service, but the problem had not become so serious that they had given it any thought. Your committee is of the opinion that at this time, the whole matter without any menace to Public Health or great inconvenience to a Large majority of citizens could be indefinitely postponed.

Burnham Maintenance & Construction Sidewalks Street Signs Snow Removals Streets Lights Watering troughs Mr. Fred H. Moulton General Government Overseers of the Poor Election and Registrations Board of Survey Outside Aid Town Physician Almshouse Soldier's Benefits Mr. J. Chester Hutchinson Water Dept. Sewer Dept. Maintenance & Construction Brooks Hydrants—Town Engineer Mr. Theodore A. Custance Park Commissioners Parks & Playgrounds Inspector of Buildings Tree Warden—Moth Dept. Mr. Charles H. Miles Board of Health Inspector of Animals Inspector of Plumbing Inspector of Slaughtering Inspector of Milk Several applications for gasoline filling stations were made to the Board this year as in the past. In some sec- tions where these stations were proposed the Board did not deem that public necessity demanded utilities of this TOWN OF LEXINGTON 177 sort. If necessity does not require, it does not seem wise that the Board should allow the beauty of the town to be marred by too many stations. In September 1923 the Town voted to print the Assess- ors valuation list of Town property of 1922 and 1923 and an appropriation of $600 was made for same. After re- ceiving bids it was found that the vote of the town could not be carried out as the appropriation was insufficient. The Selectmen felt that the wishes of the Town should be car- ried out as nearly as posible and the valuation list is print- ed in the Town Report of 1924. The Board considered the matter of the town insur- ing itself from an economic standpoint, and from facts gathered from towns of similar size it was learned that the blanket system of insurance was carried by most of them. In order to insure itself the town would be obliged to es- tablish a sinking fund and in the event of a big _ire loss, unless this had been carried on for several years, the town would be at a great loss. It was therefore considered that the present system was most desirable and economical. Owing to the new addition to the Parker School at North Lexington the insurance account was increased. The Board had the buildings insured under the blanket insur- ance revalued by men competent to do so and the insu-- an.ce carried was increased from $594,940 to $930,100. It was found that the boiler insurance policies carried by the town on boilers in the public buildings could b, placed upon a blanket policy thereby reducing the rate of insurance. Calls are being made each year for additional street lights in some of the outlying sections of the town. The additions will naturally increase the appropriation but we feel that the town is growing, and it is important that puo- lic utilities be furnished to the different sections of the town as fast as the development warrants. In order that the new school building- could be built on the Bacon property next to the High School the houses at 331, 333, and 335 Mass. Avenue were ordered removed and the Town realized the amount of $510 for the old buildings. The Board has requested that Lowell Street, from its terminus with Summer Street Extension to Maple Street, Maple Street to Mass. Avenue and Mass. Avenue to the $tate Road be taken over by the State as a State Ilighway 178 ANNUAL REPORT If this is accepted, a thoroughfare maintained by the State, connecting Arlington and Concord will be established. Deeds of the Property at the corner of Forest and Mus- zey Streets were turned over to the Town by Frederick L. Emery, President of the Field and Garden Club. Mr. Emery obtained deeds from the owners of property at the corner of these streets so that a widening and permanent improve- ment could be made. During the year several requests have been made for permanent constructoin of streets which have hitherto - fore been gravel roads. The appropriation for the highway department has not been sufficient to allow any new con- struction work and has only been enough to carry on the general maintenance. Our opinion is that we should build some pemanent construction each year as many of our streets are expensive to keep in repair. We would therefor recommend an additional appropriation that this work may be accomplished. For several years the construction of the streets in East Lexington has been before the Board. The residents of Corvine, Arcadia, Cliffe, and Wilson Avenues were agree- able to having the town do the work under the Betterment Act. Legal proceedings were therefor entered upon and apportionment of the cost of construction made to the abutting owners. Some work has already been done on each of these streets and in the spring the department will complete the construction. Grant Street from Sherman Street to Hayes Lane has also been laid out under the Bet- terment Act, and a considerable amount of the work done. If construction of other streets in the town can be made in this way it will be a benefit to the property owners and to the town as a whole. The Selectmen endeavored to place the Slaughter In- spection Department upon a self supporting basis and ac- cordingly charged a nominal fee for the use of the buildnigs used for slaughtering as well as for the Slaughter licenses. It is urged this year that Chap. 490 Sections 119 and 120 of the Acts of 1924 be accepted by the Town. Under this law the Board will be empowered to charge a fee which will offset the expenses of the department. The Middlesex and Boston Street Railway Company applied to the Board of Selectmen for a permit to run Jitney Busses on the route originally covered by electric cars from the northern end of the town of Arlington ;'Ieights. As this was a new proposition to the Board of TOWN OF LEXINGTON 179 Selectmen they felt they should give the matter consider- able study. On advice of Town Counsel, Edward C. Stone, regulations were drawn up and adopted. These regulations required the company to file an insurance policy in the interest of the Town and agree- ments were made between the company and the Town, whereby the tracks were to be removed. As a result the Town is now served by Motor transportation. There has been a request made to the Board for Bus service from the Lincoln line to Arlington Heights. The purpose of the applicant is to have through service from Concord to Arlington Heights, and the route vas to be made over the State Road in Lexington. This proposi- tion seems to warrant further consideration. Since the adoption of the Zoning By -Law )larch 1'7, 1921 a few questions have come before -the Board to be passed upon. After considering the conditions. brought before them, the Board expresses the opinion that the passage of the Zoning Law is a great benefit and protection to the town. It having been found that Chap. 45 Sec. 103 of the Re- vised Laws was accepted by the Town in 1902, the Selectmen with the assistance of the Planning Ewe'd, contemplate establishing building lines on some of the main streets in the town. The School Department requested the use of Police Officers for the protection of school children while crossing the public streets near the schools. The Board would like to cooperate with the schools but in order to do so add- itional men are needed in the Police Department. The Board recommends an additional appropriation for this department that the force may be increased. On July 8th the Board received the resignation of Town Counsel, Edward C. Stone, who has served the ton'n and has given a great deal of his valuable time without fee to the town for about a year and a half. Although the Board regretted exceedingly to receive this resignation they felt they were to be congratulated upon being so fortunate as to have had his services for the length of time they were given. .Although Mr. Stone's, resignation was accepted he very kindly assisted the Board in all matterb coming before them for legal advice until autumn when it became necessary to appoint another corunsel. dr. Sydney R. Wrightington agreed to serve the Board without 190 ANNUAL REPORT pay for the balance of the year. It will be necesary how- ever, to appropriate money this coming year for the Law Department for services of an attorney and Mr. Wriglrt- ington has agreed to serve as Town Counsel. Mr. J. Henry Duffy who had served the town faith- fully and conscientiously for seven years tendered Isis re- signation to the Board in February. The Board regretted exceedingly that they should lose the services of such a competene man. Mi. Duffy felt that he could not serv, the Town any longer in the capacity of Town Engineer. Mr. Clarence B. French of Waltham, a young man who had experience in the engineer's office in that city was appointed Town Engineer, and has proved himself very satisfactory. OVERSEERS OF THE POOR No financial aid was received from the Trustees of the Public Trusts this year and the appropriation of $8500 was expended as cautiously as possible yet allowing necessary funds for those in need. Generally speaking except incases of sickness when persons are unable to support themselves and in cases of death where a widow survives with small children, the calls for aid have not been as numerous this year. We believe that persons in needy circumstances are realizing that it is better to work and be self supporting than to accept aid. If this attitude is taken we shall have fewer cases on our pay roll. The total number of cases aided this year was 19 consisting of 52 persons. The nur_rber of cases removed from the list during the year was 5 consist- ing of 14 persons. One of these cases moved from town and the other four became self supporting. In addition to the regular cases carried the town is often called upon to pay bills for care of persons in hospitals. The expenses of this, Department for the past three years have been as follows: GROSS REIMBURSEMENT NET EXPENSE TO TOWN From Mother's From Chien Aid Town & State 1922 $8,989.07 $;3,391.68 81,709.06 83,888.33 1923 7,412.33 4048.96, 428,86 2,934.51 1924 5,554.88 2,010.25 497.65 3,064.95 These figures show an increase in the net expense to the Town of $130.47 as compared with 1923. TOWN OF LEXINGTON 181 ALMSHOUSE The supervision of the inmates of the Almshouse is under the direction of Mrs. William Eaton, as in the pre- vious year. One additional inmate has been received making a total of four present at the Almshouse. There will there- for have to be an increase over the appropriation of last year. PARK DEPARTMENT The Department has, as usual, carried on the main- tenance work on the parks and playgrounds. At the play- grounds instructors were engaged to look after the child- ren and to see that the various devices were used properly, and that the children would not injure themselves or others while at play. The practice of employing instructors at the play- grounds appears to be good judgment as by so doing there is someone to see that town property is not abused of destroyed. At the cottage considerable alterations and repairs, including a new cellar and bath room, were made. The drives at the Lexington Playgrounds have been partially constructed according to the plans made a few years ago. Enough coarse gravel was available for found- ations, and to fill nearly to grade at a very low price. It was considered the right time to take advantage of the opportunity and have these drives ready for the anniver- sary year. To bring these drives to the proper grade will only require the placing of sufficient surfacing' gravel, this to be dressed and rolled and the surface treated with asphaltic oil or tar. Several culverts were constructed and one Lengthened. Because of the drainage conditions we are unable to continue the swimming pool at the present site. It is sug- gested that a study be made and plans drawn with the idea of building a proper swimming pool in the right place that will be permanent. Owing to the 150th Anniversary the coming season will be a busy one for the Park Department as a great many interests will center there. We hope to be able to start the work early in order that by April 19th the drives and grounds will be a credit to the town. 182 ANNUAL, REPORT In conclusion we wish to thank the citizens for the help .they have given toward making this year's work successful. We also wish to thank the heads of depart- ments for their cooperation. BOARD OI' HEALTH The greatest problem the Board of Health has to con- tend with is that of the piggeries. Complaints were re- ceived from ail parts of the Town last year relative to the stench. The attitude of the Board is to try to arrive at a conclusion which will benefit all concerned. The Board intends to enforce the regulations which they adopted, con- trolling these matters, and believe that the owners will endeavor to cooperate. \Vi have been informed by the State Department of Health that the charge, for supporting inmates at the State Sanatoria will he $16.10 per week instead of $4.00 as in the past. Very often the town is confronted with bills for care of persons having a settlement in the town and who are unable to pay the bills for their care. This will mean an increased appropriation for the Board of Health this year. BOARD OF SURVEY Plans of land located off Mass. Avenue near the cor- ner of Maple Street were submitted to the Board for ap- proval. Several residents in that section objected to the lay- out as it ivuuld mean a great many small houses owing i 1 to the fact that the lots were small. Also the land being low it would be costly to the town to install the proper system of drainage. The Board therefore did not ap- prove of tin. lay -out. Plans Sce.tion 4 of Park Heights were placed before the Board or approval. Mr. Warren S. Griswold petitioner, was requested to file plans in accordance with the engineers instructions. As these requirements were not met the beard has not approved the plans. Plan of Fair Oaks petitioned for by Mr. Neil McIntosh was approNd this year. Mr. iticIntosh has before the Board plan of the Cary Farm property which he proposes to develop. In conclusion we wish to express our appreciation for the cooperation of all officers both elective and appointed, to the superintendents of each department, and to all cm- TOWN OF LEXINGTON 183 ployees of the ,Town, for their faithful and cordial per- formance of their duties, and to the citizens wrlo have been helpful in making the year just ,closed one of the most progressive year: in our history. May we ,enter upon the new year, facing the prob- lems before us, with the same confidence and desire that we may be of real service to the ,community we are called to serve. Only as each one gives of his best, can we ex- pect to place our town in the position which rightfully be- longs to her. ALBERT H.BURNHAD' J .CHESTER HUTCHINSON FRED 13. MOULTON THEODORE A.

To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Public Works: Gentlemen : The following report of the Superintendent of Public Works for the year 1924 is hereby respectfully submitted. Historic Lexington situated on high land surrounded by low hills has many advantages. Massachusetts Avenue in front of the Town Hall is 223 feet above sea level. It is a beautiful, healthy town almost entirely devoted to homes, farms, and gardens, and still it is a part of the Metropolitan district thereby receiving the benefits of that district. Our town commenced the Battle of Liberty which ultimately resulted in these United States of America. We commemorate that fact this year by celebrating the 1150th anniversary of the battle of Lexington. We shall have visitors from alI ,the world to view the old Battle Ground, the Belfry, Hancock Clark House, Buckman Tavern, Munroe Tavern, and other points of so great in- terest to all. tial and that said renovation andi mprovement be Carried To bring out the full appreciation of these objects we must all work to have the Town at its best in all re- spects. It will be necessary to bring the streets, especially near the center of the Town, into fine condition. Our park work will need to be started very early in order that we may know that everything will look the best possible. During the past year the work of the various depart- ments has progressed successfully, the heads of all doing their best to fulfill their duties and to have their depart- ments function efficiently and economically. As the report of each department appears elsewhere in this hook, it does not seem necessary to go into details here, but a few sug- gestions may properly be made at this time. There is a natural growth in every healthy town and TOWN OF LEXINGTON 187 Lexinton is no exception. This growth increased the needs of the Public Works, the Police, Fire, Schools, and in fact all departments of the Town. To maintain proper and successful operation a slight increase in appropriations is necessary each year. During 1924 the Water Department has made exten- sions of two and one half miles of mains- and added one hundred and eighteen services. The extension of thesM water mains is commendable in order that, so far as pos- sible, we may supply water to all inhabitants. As we be- come more thickly settled, the wells and springs are lei danger of becoming contaminated, and liable to be a source of sickness and contagious disease. Then, too the extension of water mains means increased fire protection. The sewer has been extended in Merriam and Stetson Streets and in the spring the work will be continued in Oakland Street, Masachusetts Avenue, and Charles Street.. There are now two hundred and nineteen sewer connec- tions in the Town. A highway construction program should be adopted ixr the Town calling for an expenditure of at least $25000.00 yearly. This is needed very much as a number of miles os" streets are in such condition the surface is constantly grow- ing thinner and weaker. These have been kept in fair con- dition by scarifying, and rolling and dressing, with a new wearing surface„ but every time this is done the share stones are worn and the binding qualities reduced until finally what is left will not wear as web as a gravel road. The work of the Highway department eras principally maintenance. The streets have been kept in very good condition and considering the amount of money ex the showing is fine. A new steam roller was purchased, also a new Ford truck, ether equipment repaired and kept in good condition. A storm drain from Slocum Road to the Munroe School was necessitated because of the building of the new High School. It is now necessary to take care of the snow as fast as it falls because of the increased use of automobiles and trucks. The Town is very dependent on this form of trans- portation to receive its supplies. It is also very import- ant in ease of fire the fire department shall have unobstruct- ed streets to reach the fire as quickly as possible in order to prevent the destruction of property and of life. For these reasons the Town should have more 188 ANNUAL REPORT snow removal equipment and I recommend the purchase of a five ton tractor and snow plow for this service. The Park department has carried on the usual main- tenance work and has constructed drives from Lincoln Street to Waltham Street which will no doubt be a great addition to our Park system. The Engineering department has accomplished a great deal of work during the year. .I regret very much that the resignation of J. Henry Duffy as chief of the department was received and accepted. This caused the loss of the services of an excellent, skilful, hard-working, and con- scientious engineer, but we were fortunate to obtain another who, I am sure, will be as faithful a.'a will also work for the best interests of the Town. The officers and men of the Police Department have performed their duties fearlessly and properly and have made an admirable record this year. The discipline and morale of ,the department is excellent. The Fire Department should be commended for the fine condition of the equipment and for the splendid dis- cipline of the firemen whether on duty at fires or at the stations. Your attention is called to the recommendation of the Chief of the department in regard to a new pumper. Fire protection can be given only to the limit of the ap- paratus and in my judgment it would be poor fire insurance to allow the Tow/ to be without the proper equipment. Your attention is also called to the complaint of the Chief in regard to the automobile menace when there is a fire. Our police force is small and we must depend to a great extent on the citizens not to block the department when it is going to fires. Automobile drivers crowding the road and blocking the apparatus are risking their own lives and the lives of the firemen as well as those of pedestrians. Try to help the department by giving it a clear road be- cause it can do the most good by arriving at the fire first. The work of the Moth Department and Tree Warden has been performed carefully and well as the condition of the trees in all parts of the Town demonstrates. The work of extinguishing grass and brush fires has been at- tended to, and with the aid of the fire department a large amount of damage to property has been avoided. The Health Department has found it necessary to send a number of contagious cases to the hospitals. In some TOWN OF LEXINGTON 189 instances the Town has been obliged to bear the expense. Tlie total number of contagious diseases reported was three -hundred and ninety-one. The milk inspector has looked afterl his division of the department in a thorough and careful manner and according to law has issued licenses to all persons selling milk. The condition of the piggeries in the Town has been more satisfactory during the past year. It appears that the owners have endeavored as Tar as pos- sible to eliminate objectionable features. The affairs of the Poor Department have been carefully administered, all cases investigated, and all needed help given. The condition of the windows in the Town Hall made it impel ative that some should be replaced and others re- paired. The woodwork in the front of the building should be painted at an early date not only to preserve it, but to brighten and improve the appearance of the building. In the interior the front hallway and stairway should be painted. The memorial banner case was built and placed on the wail inside the Town Hall making a useful and ornamental addition. It has been necesary to place a large additional amount cf insurance this year owing to the increase of the replace- ment value of the Town buildings and because of the ad- dition to the Parker School. After completion of the new High School the total insurance needed will be about one and a quarter millions of dollars. Bus service has replaced the trolley on Massachusetts Avenue and Bedford Street. While in some respects, ,this service has not always filled the demands, in general it has proved satisfactory. Any complaints filed at this office have received attention and have been discussed with the officials of the railway company who have always dis- played a willingness to comply with the suggestions to im- prove the service. In conclusion I thank the Selectmen for their assist- ance and cooperation. I also extend my thanks to all em- ployes of the various departments who by their attention to their duties have assisted in making this year's work successful. WILLIAM S. SCAMMAN SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC WORKS 190 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF TOWN ENGINEER Lexington, Mass., Dec. 31, 1921 Mr. William S. Seamrnan Superintendent of Public Works Lexington, Mass. Dear Sir: I submit my first report as Town Engineer of Lex- ington for a period from April 21st to December 31st 1921. The Department has been exceptionally busy through- out the year with routine work and the following will show in a general way the vast amount of work ac- complished. Highway Department Estimates, surveys, grades, and plans have been pre- pared for the acceptance of the following streets: Arcadia Avenue, Carville Avenue, Cliffe Avenue, Grant Street and Wilson Avenue. Lines and grades were established and 7004 square yards of granolithic sidewalks were constructed in the fol- lowing locations. Bedford Street, (from near Tewksbury to Hill Street) ; Bloomfield Street, (opposite Gaffney's) ; Massachusetts Avenue (opposite Gaffney's) ; Shirley Street, (from Bed- ford to Sargent Street). The sidewalks together with the adjacent grass plots add greatly to the appearance of both the street and the abutting property. Board of Survey During the year hearings were held by the Board on two land developments, namely: Park Heights, No. 4, comprising about 11 acres off Winter Street in North Lexington. Fair Oaks, containing about 75 acres and lying north- west of the junction of Middle and Waltham Streets. TOWN OF LEXINGTON 191 The plan of Park Heights, No. 4 as presented by Mr. Griswold was rejected and a counter proposal as prepared by the Planning Board was presented by the Board of Survey- For some reason or other Mr. Griswold has not accepted this plan, so nothing has been approved or placed on file. The Fair Oaks development as presented by Mr. McIn- tosh was originally laid out by lir. Horton in 1909 and later years and was approved•by the Board. It contains about 9460 linear feet or 1.79 miles of streets. The Engineer attended the various hearings held and rendered such engineering assistance as was necessary to the Board. Cemetery Department During the year a lotting plan showing the location and area of the burial lots of Westview Cemetery has been prepared. This will prove to be a great assistance to the Cemetery Commissioners in their work. A survey with the location of the stones and lots in the proprietor's section of the Colonial Cemetery has been made, and a plan will be drawn up at the earliest conveni- ence of this Department. At the request of the Commissioners the Department has also relocated a part of the drive in the Westview Cemetery, the old stakes having been knocked out or broken. Assessing Department Such time as was possible was directed to the block system for the use of the Board of Assessors. The nature of this work was almost entirely field work and during the corning winter months .the Department hopes to, be able to complete some of the incornpleted plans and start new ones. Time and again the Department has been called upon by the asessors for information and engineering assistance, Drainage Matters On account of the new Junior High School, it was necessary to construct a 12 inch drain, a distance of 957 feet, along Masachusetts Avenue to the drain going down through the Munroe School yard to replace the one cut off by the new school. At the same time new catch basins were placed along Massachusetts Avenue to improve exist - 192 ANNUAL REPORT ing conditions there, these catch basins serving :as manooles as well as catch basins. Other engineering assistance was furnished in the following locations: Brooks in the Centre Playground Area, At North Lexington Carbarns; Reed Street, North Lex- ington; Lincoln Street, at entrance to the playground. Park Department This department has kept the engineers exceptionally busy throughout .the year. Early in the year estimates were made for the con- struction of roadways in the Centre Playgrounds Area and later the location and grades set for the construction of the same. These roadways or drives, as they can mor<, rightfully be called, will prove to be a permanent improve- ment to the town and a step further toward the develop- ment of the Centre Playground Area. The matter of Bowman Park at the junction of Pleas -- ant and Watertown Strets has been cleared up and a copy of a plan of the same is now on file at the Registry of Deeds in East Cambridge. Sewer Department During the year 16 estimates and connections were made with the main sanitary sewers totaling 1068 linear feet. 776 Linear feet of 8 inch main sanitary sewer was constructed on Meriam Street, also 335 linear feet of 6 inch in Stetson Street and 89 linear feet of 6 inch on Grant Street, the Engineering Department furnishing the neces- sary location and grades for the construction of the same. All necessary data to prepare plans has been secured and plans will be made in the near future. An estimate was also made for a main sewer in Oak- land Street. Water Department The Water Department has been exceptionally busy throughout the year, having laid 96 linear feet of 4 inch, 12,908 linear feet of 6 inch, and 208 linear feet of 8 inch water pipe in 23 different streets throughout the town The location and all necessary information was supplied by the Engineering Department during the construction of the same and afterward all necessary measurements and TOWN OF LEXINGTON 193 During the year the Department has made estimates for 118 new house connections and also 17 renewals of old services. Whenever water mains which are not shown correctly on the old water plans have been dug up for reason of new services and sq forth, accurate measurements have been made and recorded, and in this way the Department hopes to gradually correct all old plans. This covers a large amount of work of the Department other data was recorded in order that the proper plans may be made showing the accurate locations of the mains. Some of these plans, as well as plans of all water mains laid in 1923 have already been prepared.r Because of pressure of other work the Department has not yet found time to start on a book showing correct location of all water gates, the measurements having been made in 1923. All new gates, however, have been pro- perly recorded. The Engineer realizes the importance of this book and hopes to make a start on it soon. Planning Board Considerable work has been done by the Engineering Department throughout the year for the Planning Board, some of which may be summarized as follows: Topographi- cal survey and study of the land bounded by Hancock and Meriam Streets, Edgewood Road, and the Boston and Maine Railroad. Study of the Griswold land off Winter Street. Topographical survey and study of the Tribino land off Utica Street. Topographical survey and study of the Cary Farm con- taining about 146 acres, and bounded by Middle, Spring, Shade, Weston, and Lincoln Streets. The Town Engineer has at the request of the Board attended its meetings and rendered such service as has been requested. Miscellaneous Matters and the following items are some that have been done during the past year. Street number plans of 37 different streets; Plans for proposed town hall site; Plan for parking autos on Park- er Field for 1925 Pageant; Approval of plans relating to 194 ANNUAL REPORT installation of gas mains; Approval of land court cases as far as the town is interested in same; Completion of the town map; Line and grades for curbing and walks at Lex- ington Building Trust; Complete investigation of old deeds at East Cambridge Registry of Deeds to ascertain the town's rights in right of way from junction of Clarke and Parker Streets to Vine Brook; Complete investigation of old deeds to determine the Town's rights in a right of way on Shippee land off Lincoln Street. The preceeding report gives a good idea of tlic work done by the department during the past year. The Engine- er feels greatly indebted to his assistants and all others who have given their help and cooperation throughout the year. The po;•sonne] of .the Department besides the Engineer is now as follows: John T. Cosgrove Asst Engineer J. Bruce Lewis Transitmen George Harrington Rodman During October and November Mr. John H. Snow was retained as draftsman. Respectfully submitted, CLARENCE L. FRENCH TOWN ENGINEER TOWN OF LEXINGTON 195 REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT Lexington, Mass., January 1, 1925. To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, Lexington, Mass. Gentlemen :— I beg to submit to your Honorable Board the annual report of the Fire Department. The Department ans- wered 182 alarms during the past year. We were called to protect property endangered by fire estimated at $468,- 100. We were again fortunate this year in nbt having any serious loss. The quick response and the excellent work of the men more than once prevented this from happening. The abov41 figures do not include the value of property threatened with destruction by brush fires. The brush fires were about the same as usual. This Department merely renders aid to the Forest Warden's Department in fighting these; fires. I wish to commen4 the splendid work done by Osborne J. Gorman, Forest Warden, in preventing serious loss to valuable property by the able manner in which he handled these fires. Our Department responded three times to boxes in Waltham, and the Waltham Department responded four times to boxes in Lexington. We also responded to a call foil help from the Town of Lincoln once, and from the Town of Bedford three times. The City of Woburn re- sponded to one box in Lexington, I wish Vto incorporate in this report a letter received from the Board of Selectmen of Bedford, as follows: November 26, 1924, "Chief of Fire Dept., Lexington, Mass. Dear Sir:— The Board of Selectmen of Bedford desire to ex- press to you and your Company the appreciation of the Citizens of Bedford, for the always neighborly attitude shown by you and your men, and especially for your prompt response to our call at the recent threatening fires at Bed - 196 ANNUAL REPORT ford. For a comparatively small Community whose equip- ment for fighting fires is not always just what might be wished for, it is particularly encouraging to know that our neighbors are invariably ready and willing to assist when help is must needed. It is of course hard to imagine a time when Bedford may reciprocate, but if ever atany times we are in a posi- tion to show our appreciation of your kindness, you may be sure that the Citizens of Bedford will be only too anxiuos to do so. Sincerely yours, BOARD OF SELECTMEN, By JOHN KIRKEGAARD, Clerk. This Department needs a new Motor Pump. The Knox Pump which we have had in service since 1913 is practically obsolete. Although it has never failed to be of good service when needed at a .fire, it has always been a very expensive piece of apparatus to maintain, and each year it is becoming more so. The various parts of this machine are extremely difficult to get, as it is so old anu out-of-date. We are obliged now to have many parts made, as it is impossible to buy them. Very soon in order to keep this pump in service'. it will have to be thoroughly overhauled at a considerable expense, meanwhile. The Town will be without a pump for at least two months and possibly longer and as it is impossible to borrow a pump, the Town will be in the same predicament that Concord was about a year ago when they had their serious fire at the Junction. On October 31st, Hallowe'en, one of the members of our Fire Department, Elinus B. Radley, was killed while answering a needless alarm. Not only on this particular night but during the course of the year several false alarms have been sounded. Every time that the Fire Department responds to an alarm the firemen run a serious risk. It is sufficiently- difficult .to answer a necessary alarm promptly now that we are hampered in our progress to the fire by automobiles without being obliged to run the same risk in answering needless alarms. Is there no way that this automobile menace can be eliminated? Respectfully submitted, EDWAIWD W.

Goodwin, by request of Chief of Police 38 Number of Duty Calls; 11,574 POLICE EQUIPMENT The Police Department is equipped fvith an automobile, two motorcycles, police signal boxes, Red Light System, riot gun, lung motor and First Aid Kit; which in my opinion are very essential. During the summer months a police officer patroled with a motorcycle day and night giving the people in the outskirts of the town, police protection which they are entitled to. Thanre is an officer calling the police station from the boxes every twenty minutes and with our "Red Light System" we can call an officer to the station in a very short tune. By pafroling at night with a motor- cycle, I b?.liove that we have prevented a great dal of crime. In submitting this report to the Tax -payers and Voters of Lexington, I wish to express my appreciation for the way in which the people of Lexington have supported me in the exercise of my public duties. 1 also wish to extend my thanks to the Board of Select- men for their kindly assistance to the Police Department in the performance of their duties. I take this opportunity to express my appreciation for 200 ANNUAL REPORT the cooperation of William S. Scamman, Superintendent of Public Works who has always been willing to help my department in enforcing the law in Lexington. In closing I want to thank the members of the Police Department for their cooperation and also the operator,' of the New England Telephone Company of Lexington for the good service rendered my Department. Respectfully submitted, EDWARD LEAVITT CHIEF OF POLICE TOWN OF LEXINGTON 201 REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF HIGHW AYS January 12, 1925 To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Superintend- ent of Public Works. During the past season the activities of the Highway Department have been confined largely to maintainanee due to a curtailment of appropriation which made no pro- vision for new construction from the general funds. All of the outlying streets were scraped, rolled and ruts filled with crushed stone or gravel as the condition required. Surface treatments of Tarvia or oil were applied to the main thoroughfares and adjacent side streets which had previously been so treated. Lowell Street from Woburn Street to East Street; East Street from Lowell Street to Adams Street and Meriam Street from York Street to Adams Street were thoroughly reconstructed and surface treated. New Construction from special apropriation was completed on Carville Avenue and a portion of Grant Street. During the corning year a larger appropriation will have to be made otherwise: the general condition of the Streets will not be maintained and after a few years it will cost far more to regain what is now being sacrificed through false economy. The constant increase of motor traffic, especially of lamer vehicles and heavier loads adds abuse to the highways which was unknown at the time they were constructed and for which they were not built. More at- tention will have to be given to replacement of street signs: the need of which wil be apparent from inspection of the present condition of those in all sections of the town. The excellent start made in the past year or two to erect permanent main thoroughfare and direction signs should be continued. Moreover a great deal of expense caused by storm damage can be avoided by a moderate investment hi adequate drainage construction which as experience has shown soon pays for itself. In orders to adequately meet the demand of present clay traffic and keep the roads open in winter it will be neces.- 202 ANNUAL REPORT sary to purchase a five ton tractor and plow for snow re- moval. Also a truck heavier than the Ford now in use should be added to our equipment for the efficient handling, of materials which usually are obtained in remote sections of the town. A three ton truck is recommended for this purpose. Again I wish to call your attention to the need of a centrally located Town Yard for the use of all departments. At present a large portion of the town's equipment is not properly housed and that portion so protected i;; distri- buted among several places resulting in considerable lost time spent in gathering the necesary equipment each time the character of the work in hand is changed. In conclusion I want to thank my superiors for their cooperation which has at all tunes been generous and help- ful. To the employees of the Highway Department I express my appreciation for their faithful and efficient ser- vice which has made this one of the most successful years in the histiry of the Department. Respectfully submitted, ROBERT H. WHITE TOWN OF LEXINGTON 203 REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF MOTH DEPARTMENT AND TREE WARDEN Lexington Mass. January 1, 1925 To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Public Works, Lexington, Mass. Gentlemen: The wort: connected with the Moth Department and that of the Tree Warden is now under the supervision of one official. During the past year, the trees and shrubbery on the Common, parks, cemeteries, school grounds and the streets have been treated with creosote for the suppression of the Gypsy moth. The Frown Tail _Moth nests Wer` cut from the trees, and; in order that there would he no further danger, the nests were collected and burned. The foliage was sprayed with arsenate of lead. It is necessary that the trees receive the best of care and this work was thoroughly done. The street trees were trimmed and the dead branches were removed. At times it was necessary to cut trees down. This, however, was only done when the trees were considered to be in an unsafe condition. In order to pre- vent accidents, removal was all that could be done. The trees and shrubbery on the school grounds, play- ground, Belfry Hill, Hastings Park and the Common were also trimmed. Last spring, several young trees were set out to ,take the place of old ones which had to be removed. Respectfully submitted, OSBORNE J. GORMAN Supt. of Moth Department and Tree Warden 204 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF FOREST FIRE WARDEN Lexington Mass. January 1, 1925 To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Public Works, Lexington, Mass. Gentlemen : 1, herewith, submit my annual report as Forest Fire warden for the year ending December 31, 1924. There were eighty-eight grass and forest fires in the Town of Lexington, during the past year. Compared with the previous year, a decrease of eight fires is shown. Tho Fire Department responded to alarms for them,' fires, and 1n' prompt and efficient service had them out before any serious damage to property had been caused. Some fires. especially those in the large forest area, ap- peared to be serious; but the men by hard work, often under unfavorable conditions, succeeded in getting them under control, and if it had not been for this excellent service the losses would have been greater. If all those who procure permits to start fires would be careful to observe all conditions under which these per- mits are isued, I believe a further decrease in alarms will result. I wish to thank the people of the Town for co-operat- ing with me during the past year. Respectfully submitted, OSBORNE J. GORMAN FOREST FIRE WARDEN TOWN OF LEXINGTON 205 REPORT OF THE SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES Lexington, Mass. Dec. 31, 1924 To the Board of Selectmen Town of Lexington Gentlemen: - 1 herewith present my annual report for the year 1924. If one cares to take the time to compare the receipt:, of this department for this year with the amount collected 'for the sealing and adjusting done last year or the year before they will readily see that the amount of work com- pleted was considerably more than that of previous years. Oil measuring pumps in 1922 11 32,94 " " 1923 18 37.60 ,l °' " 1924 42 84.03 This is due to two reasons the first is the increase in the number of scales and secondly to the installing of a number of new gasoline pumps. The latter would require the greater part of ones time to keep them within the legal requirements. Several peices of ice have been weighed and found correct. Tabulations of the entire year's work will be found herewith: Work performed from Dec. 31, 1923 to Dec. 31, 1921 SCALES Sealed Platform over 5000 lbs. Platform under 5000 lbs. Counter Scales Beam. over 100 lbs. Spring under 100 lbs.

Considerable time has been spent looking up hawkers and inspecting their licenses if they did not have one, to get a license or keep out of town. The amount of work for next year if it keeps astride of former years will be very great. The receipts for 1924 were very near triple of 1922, or very near double of 1923. CHARLES E. HADLEY SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES TOWN OF LEXINGTON REPORT OF BUILDING INSPECTOR 207 208 ANNUAL REPORT Lexington,Mass. Jan. 1, 1925 To the Board of Selectmen, Gentlemen:— There has been more permits isued for buildings in number and value this past year than any year in the hist- ory of the town, with every prospect that building in 1925 will eyceed the past year. The zoning law that went into operation last April carried with it some new laws and regulations which the builders were not all familiar with, caused some inconvenience but the builders have been ready to cooperate, so there has been no serious trouble. There has been no legal difficulties to encounter of any Lind the past year. The building laws under which we are working were made in 1913 with a few changes since. There was a com- mittee appointed last spring to revise the laws and no doubt the new laws will be ready for use soon. As all copies of the old laws are exhausted the new ones will be greatfully re- ceived. Following is a summary of Building Permits of tax- able property.

TIBBETTS BUILDING INSPECTOR TOWN OF LEXINGTON 2.59 REPORT OF HEALTH OFFICER December 31, 1924 Mr. William S. Scamman, Supt. of Public Works, Lexington, Mass. Dear Sir:— I hand you herewith my report as Health Of}icer for 1924. There were 391 cases of contagious disease reported during the year. As some parents are careless and others ignorant of the fact that they are required by law to re- port a case of contagious disease in their household, unless a physician is called who will of course report it, many cases of the less serious diseases undoubtedly go unreport- ed. The following contagious diseases have been reported ed. Many cases of Chicken -Pox and Mumps have certainly not been reported. The following contagious diseases have been reported during the year 1924:— Anterior Poliomyelitis 1 Chicken Pox Diptheria German Measles Pneumonia, Lobar Measles 118 Mumps 42 Scarlet Fever 49 Tetanus 1 Pulmonary Tuberculosis 5 All other forms of Tuberculosis 9 Typhoid Fever 1 Whooping Cough 1 150 2 3 9 Total number of cases 391 I have made 22 calls on cases of scarlet fever and diptheria, the only diseases now placarded, placarded the houses where cases have remained at home, and arranged proper quarantine, and seen to it that they were ready for release before lifting quarantine. As most of the cases of 210 ANNUAL REPORT scarlet fever are mild in recent years, and in many towns and cities the minimum period of quarantine for that dis- ease is now 4 weeks it might be safe for Lexington to make the minimum period of quarantine 4 weeks instead of fivs.. The period of isolation in eases of chicken pox and mumps afterexposure these in- stead of two for many times three these two diseasesdo not ap- pear till the third week after exposure. Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM L. BARNES, M. D. HEALTH OFFICER TOWN OF LEXINGTON REPORT OF SANITARY INSPECTOR 211 Lexington, Mass. Jam 1, 192: To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Public Works. Town of Lexington, Mass. Gentlemen:— I beg to submit herewith the following report of the Sanitary Inspector for the year just ending: Dec. 31, 1924. Number of Complaints received Number of complaints investigated 56 56 I have visited each piggery in town of Lexington once a month since I have been Health Inspector anti,, I have found them in perfect condition. The men that are in this business have always been ready to remedy any conditions that I have suggested. It just goes to show that pigs can be kept without causing nuisance to the neighbors. By our Department handling this office we have saved the expense of hiring an Inspector, and I believe this should still con- tinue under my department. Respectfully submitted, EDWARD LEAVITT CIIIEF OF POLICE 212 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF MILK INSPECTOR To the Board of Selectmen, Health Department, Lexington, Mase. G entlemerr :— I herewith submit my report as Inspector of Milk for the period commencing April 1, 1924, and ending December 1, 1924. Samples taken Examinations for Fats and Solids • " Dirt " Bacteria and Other Organisms " Adulteration Inspections of Milk Plants " Dairy Farms Prosecutions and Convictions Licenses to sell Milk " " " Oleomargarine Fees Collected 89 83 22 12 11 3 52 7 $29.50 Since being appointed Inspector for this Town on April 1, 1924, I have endeavored .to fulfill the duties con- nected with this office to the best of my ability. Any advice or information regarding milk has been given whenever 1 have had inquiries. As milk is; a food used in every home, and especially for babies and the sick, it would be encourag- ing if the public would be more interested in the kind of milk they are using and the source of same. Beginning in January, I will have a list published each month giving the analysis of the samples of milk taken by me, if same meets with your approval. The Legislature has passed a set of regulations for the sale of Grade "A" milk. Before these regulations were drawn up any dealer could label his milk Grade "A" with- out bringing up the standard for quality and cleanliness. The cities and larger towns around us are rapidly TOWN OF LEXINGTON 213 adopting a regulation requiring all milk sold within their limits to be pasteurized or to come from tuberculin tested cows. This is a good thing in my estimation in helping to prevent tuberculosis and other contagious diseases. In the majority of cases I have found that all the deal- ers are anxious to co-operate with me and to them, the Superintendent of Public Works, and the Board of Select- men, I extend my thanks for this co-operation. Respectfully submitted, RUSSELL I. PRENTISS January 5, 1925 INSPECTOR OF MILK 214 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF THE ANIMAL INSPECTOR December 31, 1924 To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Public Works, Lexington, Massachusetts. Gentlemen: I herewith submit my report as Inspector of Animals for the year ending December 31st, 1924. During the Spring inspection of Cattle, which is per- formed by the request of the Director of the Division of Animal Industry, between January 15th and April 1st, 1 visited 103 different places where cattle were kept and in- spected and reported concerning the condition of 736 cows, 1486 hogs, and 4 sheep and goats. I found no intentional violations of the law and in most every case a disposition on the part of the owner to cooperate with me, in my efforts to correct any undesirable condition present. The milk dealers of the town of Lexington are keeping a good grade of cattle and, with a few exceptions, are doing their best to produce clean, healthful milk. They merit our hearty support. Rabies: There has been no goneral quarantine placed on dogs during the past year. Four rases of rabies occured within the town limits, all of which were of the milder type or dumb form. All cases were proven positive by Labratory examination. Ten (10) dogs were quarantined for biting different people. None proved to have rabies. Three (3) dogs were quarantined for biting other dogs. Three (3) young cattle were quarantined because of association with two (2) others that died of rabies. Three (3) dogs and one (1) cat were quarantined for association with a rabid dog. TOWN OF LEXINGTON 215 I destroyed two (2) dogs and carried their heads to the Harvard Laboratory in Brookline. Fourteen (14) calls were made at the request of the a15Amadetothem be al,yon dogs oreth ae lned quaran ndreports werequarantines were removed. A total of 36 calls were made during the year in the interests of rabies and its suppression. The Police Department have given me their hearty support at all times. Respectfully submitted, CHESTER L.

The fol- lowing is a report of the work done by this organization. In Lexington for the year 1924.

W. F. ATWOOD DIRECTOR. TOWN OF LEXINGTON 22T REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS Your Cemetery Commissioners submit the following as their annual report for the year ending December 31, 1921. Under the faithful supervision of our Superintendent ail the cemeteries have been kept in fine condition and the re- sults have been very gratfying to your Commissioners. At Westview Cemetery our greatest expense outside of labor, has been for trees, shrubs and fertilizer for which we expended $858.00. We feel the coming year will show the wisdom of this expenditure as it will add greatly to its beauty. This coining year we shall need to go over our road- ways once more to make them servieuble Por to come. We are in hopes to arrange with our Tov,n .dans er to have this done by our Town force thereby- saving Quite a little expense. There have been sold during the year 19 lots and 17 single graves making a total to date of 56 lots and 24 single graves. During the year there were 25 in'ler- ments made, making a total of to date of 78. We hrava placed in the perpetual care fund a total of $3467. We have an unexpended balance of 5548.43 and available funds of $1998.85 making a total of $2547.28. With this amount at our disposal we shall ask the Town for but a small if any- appropriation the coming year. At Munroe Cemetery we have expended for labor, sup- plies and so forth $1497.03. We have collected for the an- nual care of lots and interments $1182. and the same h:).s been paid to the Town Treasurer as has been tho custom in previous years. We cannot see the justice in this pro- cedure and it is our opinion that the acceptance by the Town of Acts relative to Cemeteries all monies so received are at the disposal of the Commissioners. The greatest expendi- ture at this Cemetery is the one for labor for which the Town makes an appropriation. The returns for the labor instead of being credited to the Cemetery Department re- verts to a general fund and from there is voted to other de- partments which show a deficiency. Tf this money was cre- dited to the Commissioners and at our disposal we could 225 ANNUAL REPORT come before the citizens at the annual meeting with a cor- rect statement and instead of asking for $1500, or $2000, would ask for only $500, and in .that way show to the voters just what our department costs. Your Commissioners request that the citizens carefully consider the proposition that will be brought before them at the annual meeting relative to the upper driveway at Munroe Cemetery. As now laid out This driveway is not safe for vehicles and pedestrians. It should be widened fifteen feet. We recommend that a strip of land fifteen feet in width of the adjoining High School lot he used for this purpose. The lower driveway is practicr.11y im- passible and but seldom used. We recommend that it be closed and the. land therein added to the Munroe School lot. We have been in conference with the School Committee and the Building Committee and feel that our suguestions meet with their approval. It is our intention to ask fin - an appropriation to carry out this project and at the sante time erect a gateway at the entrance similiar to the one Westview. Respectfully submitted, JOHN E. A.

EARLE COLLECTOR OF TAXES 232 ANNUAL REPORT REPORT OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES The Doard of Trustees of the Cary Memorial Library consists of the Settled Pastors of Lexington, six in number, the Selectmen, five, and the School Committee, three, mak- inr, in all a Board of fourteen members. Tt meets at the Library on the first Tuesday of each month from September to Juno inclusive at 7.30 P. M. The Trustees are able to report another year marked by growing- interest on the part of the people of Lexington in the usf: of the Library. While this interest) has been shown by ail classes, adults and young people, it has been ;most noteworthy among the pupils of the public schools. The effort to correlate .the Library and the schools is evidently meeting with success. The report of the Libra- rian, itIiss Marian P. Kirkland, which follows, bears witness to this fact. The Trustees have given their cordial approval to the opening of the Reading Rooms of the Library on Sundays from 2.30 to 6.30 P. M. This plan goes into effect on Sun- day Februs:_y 1. The rooms will be in charge of a commit- tee udder rise leadership of Mrs. J. Rowe Webster. It is recognized that this undertaking is in the nature of an experime i. 3,ut it is hoped that it will meet such general response l o justify its continuance. The `i s ,eters are also glad to give cordial endorsement el the Stu_' Hours conducted in the Adams, Munroe, Hancock and Parker Schools and made possible by the co- operation cr the Home and School Association. Tt is r, pleasure to record that the average of attend- ance at the meetings of the Board has been most gratify- ing the past year. Respectfully submitted for the Trustees, CARLTON P. MILLS, Chairman TOWN OF LEXINGTON 2" To the Trustees of Cary Memorial Library Gentlemen, It is always a pleasure to report progress and in pro -:- senting the statistical record covering, as far as statistics may, the activities of the Library for the year 1924, it is my privilege to call to your attention the increased circul- ation of books reaching the high water mark in the history of the Library. This record of 61830 volumes net only places us well at the head of per capita circulations in the State, but is tangible evidence of the fact that the interest of oar pat- rons in the Library is not diminishing despite the outside attractions of the "movies" and the radio which are re- sponsible for heavy losses in circulation elsewhere. One source of increase may be easliy traced to the interest evinced by the children in the graded reading lists issued by the Massachusetts Board of Free Public Library Commissioners, the plan of which was outlined in our an- nual report of last year. Teachers and pupils, have co- operated most heartily and it is with much satisfaction that we learn from the Commissioners that we have one of the ten highest records in the State for certificates award- ed, and good work accomplished. For every five books read and reported upon to our satisfaction, 388 certificates were awarded -198 among the pupils of the Adams School -187 to the pupils of the Hancock School and 3 to the pupils of the Parker School. For every twenty books read and re- ported upon Honor certificates were awarded to 29 pupils - 17 to the pupils of the Adams School and 12 to the pupils of the Hancock School. Handicaps, which we trust may be overcome another year, made it difficult for the pupils of the Parker School to accomplish much work, but we ap- preciate the interest which all of the teachers have shown in endeavoring to cooperate with us in this field. Dy means of the "Jane Phinney Prize Fund" we were enabled to award three book prizes to the pupils attaining the hest records in good reading. The prizes awarded on the basis of quality rather than quantity were as follows: Doris Dalrymple—Hancock School -4th grade 45 books -31 % non-fiction "Treasure book of children's Verse"—Quiller Couch. ed. Eileen Burke—Adams School=6th grade 45 books -24 4-9% non-fiction 234 ANNUAL REPORT "Home boot: of verse for children"—Stevenson ed. Anna Beatty—Hancock School -4th grade 50 books -24% non-fiction "Home book of verse for children"—Stevenson ed. By courtesy of the School Committee the prizes were awarded at the closing exercises of the Grade Schools held in June. Still another avenue of activity within the Library, which of course reacts upon our circulation also, is the con- stant and ever increasing reference work which makes so many demands upon our time, our resources and our ability, for much personal effort must be expended in order to meet the requirements of the pupils in our schools—the college students—and all who are engaged in research work or seeking information upon the many and varied topics of interest to the many and varied types of patrons who call upon us fur assistance. Frequently, we supplement our own resources by borrowing books not on our own shelves, from Boston, Waltham, Somerville or other libraries, this resource being made possible through the Inter -Library Loan system which applies to all libraries in the State. Often books are of a special nature, are out of print. or are too expensive to warrant the expenditure of our own limit- ed fund and by means of this system we can, as a rule, meet requests for books very satisfactorily. To the Horne and School Association we are indeed grateful that opportunity was afforded our grade pupil to enjoy Mrs. Cronan and her sister Mrs. Powers—story tellers of the Boston Public Library and the Boston Schools. The interest aroused among pupils and teachers was most gratifying and with the teachers we express the hope that this means of arousing an interest in good reading may be carried on another year. What wonderful possibilities the regular story hour conducted by an efficient story tellior• might acomplish. Our many friends still continue to remember us gener- ously with gifts of books and flowers and we are appreciat- ive of their many courtesies. To my staff of willing, cheerful assistants much of the success of the Library is due. Respectfully submitted, MARIAN P.

PIERCE TOWN ACCOUNTANT TOWN OF LEXINGTON 241 REPORT OF PLANNING BOARD The Planning Board submitted no report one year ago. It was too much occupied in the work of drafting a Zoning By -Law for Lexington and no definite results could be re- ported. A Zoning Law was finally reported to and approved by the Town at the session of the annual meeting held on March 17, 1924, was later approved, without change, by the Attorney General of the Commonwealth, and thereupon be- came a By -Law of the Town. The entire subject was so thoroughly explained and so generally considered by the voters, at the time of the adoption of the By -Law, that further comment by this Board or at this time is unnec- essary. It is the opinion of the Planning Board, and we believe of all thoughtful citizens, that no act of the Town has done more than this to protect the future of the Town and to promote a livelier sense of civic duty and confidence. The By -Law, as passed, will doubtless be found lack- ing in complete provisions to meet all conditions as .time goes on and unforeseen developments appear. It can be amended where necessary when the need develops. The zoning problems out of the way, the Planning Board addressed itself to numerous other matters, some of its own initiation and others referred to it by the Select- men. It must be borne in mind that the Planning Board is without authority or power to do or to order any work or reform. It may only recommend; other officials or agencies of the Town must be relied upon to make these recommend- ations effective. Next to the zoning of the Town, the Planning Board has thought the establishment of building lines to be most important. A general provision to this end was incorpor- ated in the Zoning By -Law which provided that no build- ing, in any residental district, should be placed nearer than twenty feet to the exterior line of the street. Such pro - 242 ANNUAL REPORT vision is generally effective but needs reinforcement and slight modification for application to certain streets and sections of streets to produce the best results. The Planning Board, has, for man;- months, been ac- tively at work upon this subject and it is hoped that in the near future, definite petitions ':ith necessary releases may he presented with respect to certain streets for action and acceptance by the Town. Other streets will then be taken up in like manner. Proposed layouts for development of various tracts of land in Town have been referred to the Planning Board by the Selectmen for such recommendations as the Planning Board could make. In every such instance, the Board has given careful consideration to the plan, has heard the peti- tioners, and has visited the preaerty. With it single excep- tion, the Selectmen, sitting as the Board of Survey, have, we believe, adopted the recommendations of the Planning: ]Board. Among the ptoper`_ie:; so visited have been the Bacon property at Massaclruset;s Avenue and Maple Street, East Lexington; the Griswold ,property at North Lexing- ton; the Tribino property on -Utica Street; the Blake -Wad- man property on Hancock Streit ; the Cary Farm property on the State Road and tIre property of the Lexington Build- ing Trust on Bedford Street. To supplement the Zoning Law the Planning Board developing a scheme for an advisory board of architects to advise with those who purchasta land and interni to build in Lexington. This board will consist of Messrs. Willard D. Brown and William Boger Greeley. The cordial cooperation of our large developer, Mr. Nrit McIntosh has been had in this undertaking and it is hol:cd that real and substantial results will be had in the shape of houses that are more at- tractive in themselves and mo -'e llaenlonious as a group. It is too early, as yet, to report definite results. The Planning Board has given ir.uch time to many other matters such, for example, as the widening of the Massachusetts Avenue end of Waltham Street; the exten- sion of Forest Street to Massachusetts Avenue to furnish 0 relief to Massachusetts Avenue as well as to develop a con- siderable tract for residential building; initiating the move- ment for adding Lexington to the Boston Postal District, obtaining investigation by the Post Office officials and ap- proval by the Postmaster at Boston; bill board regulation and completion of the large scale map of the entire Town. TOWN OF LEXINGTON 243 Such a map is indispensible for proper consideration of highway extensions and for the laying out of new high- ways. It will be necessary, however, for the Town Engineer to add fairly complete topographical detail to the map to make it possible to lay out highways with proper grades and for proper drainage. In the opinion of the Planning Board one of the most urgent and important problems confronting the Town at the present time is the laying out of through highways to accommodate the ever increasing motor traffic. This may be done by connecting existing highways or by extending the same and may, in some instances, involve the building, at Ieast the laying down, of entirely new ways; but it must be done and promptly and, by so doing, a substantial control will be obtained over future land de- velopment in the Town Respectfully submitted, LEXINGTON PLANNING BOARD FREDERICK L.

TOWN OP LEXTNCTON 5 REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE Lexington is a town of homes and must meet inevit- ably an annual increase in the school population. It has been the duty of the School Committee to emphasize this fact each year and point out the uncomfortably crowded conditions in our school buildings. For the purpose of ascertaining the exact facts con- cerning this important matter a Committee of Seven was created at the Town Meeting on May 9, 1923 "to consist of the School Committee and four other citizens to be ap- pointed by the Moderato.. This Committee shall study the question of adequate housing for Lexington's growing school population and report their findings and recommend- ations as soon as is reasonably possible." The Committee appointed by the Moderator was as follows: John Calder, Chairman, Mrs. Lorna M. Milne, Edward H. Mara, Lester T. Redman, George F. Briggs, Mrs. Hugh D. McLellan and Howard S. 0. Nichols. This Committee gave its careful attention to the task committed to them and at the Town Meeting in Maren made an exhaustive report in printed form which report was accepted and its recommendations adopted. Its chief recommendations were as follows: 1. Build a new Senior High School to accommodate 400 pupils forming grades 10, 11, and 12 on the ground owned by the Town immediately south of the pr'ese.nt High School. Make it an integral part of the old building and utilize the latter for the Junior high School building to- gether with enough rooms immediately adjacent in the new building to accommodate 600 pupils from grades 7, S, and 9 and with common provision in a South Wing Gym- nasium for thorough physical education. In addition, add four rooms to the Parker School, two of them divided by a large assembly hall for pupils and parents. 2. The inclusive cost of a new Senior High School, and of the adapted old High School building for Junior High ,purposes is estimated at $400,000. and the addition of four rooms to Parker School should be done for $50,000. ANNUAL REPORT The total estimated cost of the new construction recom- mended is therefore $450,000. Your Committee, while urging immediate action, is of the opinion that nothing is to be gained in cost reduction by any postponement and that serious complications will arise if, on any score, the town again evades a prompt solution of this pressing edu- cational problem. 3. Obtain legislative sanction to increase the Town's borrowing powers for educational purposes and, if favorable to action, appoint a Building Committee with an appropriation to cover expenses of procuring detailed plans and estimates of costs of the same. items have already been entered in the Town Meeting Warrant which will permit these topics to be discussed at this time. To carry these recommendations into effect a build- ing Committee of Seven was appointed consisting of the School Committee and four citizens to be appointed by the Moderator. Tire Committee appointed was as follows: W. H. Ballard, James Stuart Smith, Howard E. Custance, John Calder, George E. Briggs, Mrs. H. D. McLellan and Howard 5. 0. Nichols. This Committee organized by the election of W. H. Ballard as Chairman. Its first duty 'was to introduce into the Legislature under vote of the Town on March 10th a bill enabling the Town to borrow not exceeding $500,000.00 beyond its debt Limit for school purposes necessary to cover the cost of building operations as laid down by the Committee on In- creased School Accommodations. After numerous con- ferences and hearings at the State House a bill was passed authorizing the Town of Lexington under certain condi- tions to expend beyond its debt limit the sum of $350,000.00. The Puilding Committee will in its own report set forth its activities but it is of interest to note that from April 9, 1924, weekly meetings have been held throughout the Sum- mer and Fall months for the purpose of studying -plans, choice of architects, contractors, sub -contractors etc. In June the Building Committee reported to the Town its formal recommendations for immediate building of the four -room addition to the Parker School, the building of a new High School building, and the necessary alterations in the present High School Building to convert it into a Junior School. Their recommendations called for an ap- propriation by the Town of $480,000.00 which was voted unanimously by the Town, June 26, 1924. The entire building program was at once set to motion, TOWN OF LEXINGTON 7 contracts were let, and actual building -started. Due to unusually fine weather the four -room addition to the Parker School is now completed and ready for occupancy. The New High School building is well along and gives promise of being ready for the Fall term in September 1925. With the completion of the new High School building which will become an integral part of the old building, Lex- ington will have a modern school building in every detail, of fine appearance architectually, and designed to meet the varied needs of our High School scholars. Necessarily, crowded conditions have continued to exist in the various school buildings throughout the pre- sent year pending the completion of our new building,. The enrollment on December 31, 1924 was as follows: Adams School Munroe School Ilancock School Parker School High School Junior High Senior High 414 266-6 grades only 456 139-6 grades only 259 308 1842 These figures reveal an increase over the figures of December 31, 1923 of 135 scholars representing four ad- ditional class rooms. With full operation of the Junior High School plan, the elementary schools will be relieved of the seventh and eigth grades as these grades will, with the ninth grade, or former Freshman Class in .the High School, constitute the Junior High School. In other words the elementary schools will accommodate grades from the first to the sixth only, the Junior High School the next three years, and the Senior High School the last three years thus completing our twelve years of school instruction. Your Committee believes that with this re -alignment of our school population, Lexington will possess a modern system of education, efficient, and best adapted to the three groups of children which it serves. During these days of transition and consequent confusion the best of co-operation has been shown by parents, pupils and teachers who have accommodated themselves cheerfully to these abnormal conditions. 8 ANNUAL REPORT During the past year, necessary repairs have been made to the Hancock, Munroe and Adams School buildings, The more important items include the painting of the Mun- roe and both Adams buildings, repairing the roof at the Hancock School, and reshingling, furnishing new steps and re -cording the windows at the Old Adams Building. Other repairs at the New Adams Building include re-covering the roof, repai9•s to parapet wall, weather proofing a defec..- ive wall, interior painting and additional lighting. In June the Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Harry H. Lowry, presented his resignation to accept the position of Superintendent of Schools in the City of Waltham. Mr. Lowry served this Town as Superintendent from July 1, 1920 to June 30, 1924. He was an indefatigable worker, alert to all modern thought in education and most eager in placing Lexington in the front ranks in her education- al program. Our schools owe much to his initiative and progressive school methods. After searching carefully for Mr. Lowry's successor the Committee selected among many candidates Mr. Thomas S. Grindle who was elected to the superintend- ency on July 1, 1924. Mr. Grindle is a graduate of Colby College and Harvard University and has a fine record of • several years in active school administration. He Was Superintendent in the town of Westboro for seven years, prior to his election to Lexington. The School Committee anticipates a strong administration of our school under his leadership. An enlarged school program is imperative for 1925 if we are to utilize fully and tali a advantage of the facilities offered by our new High School building. It is obvious that four new teachers will be required to care for our in- creased enrollment. We must also provide four teachers for the following subjects: Household Arts, Manual Training or Shop Work, Physical Training. The new High School building is equipped with modern appliances for serving a simple hot lunch for .the children. The lunch room is to be self supporting under the direc- tion of the teacher of Household Arts. The. convenience of a lunch room will make possible a longer school day if con- ditions should demand it. The physical education of our children has been neg- lected because we have had no trained instructor in charge TOWN OF LEXINGTON 9 of that department of work, nor a gymnasium in which exercises could be held. Educators generally recognize that the health of the child has a vital bearing on his mental powers in assimilat- ing the course of study prescribed in the curriculrn. Regular gymnasium work of a light form will be a part of the daily school program making possible the participation of all High School children in the necessary building up exercises. The best plan suggests two instructors, one, a women for the girls and the other a man for the boys. In the shop work, a man is required to direct the work in that department. The purpose of this department is not primarily to furnish vocational courses for our students. Its great value is in providing boys of the junior high school age an opportunity to try out and test their abilities,, and also in meeting the educational needs of a large group of our senior high school boys whose individual abilities at the present time are restricted by our school curriculum. This training is of first importance if we are to give our children a rounded education. This somewhat enlarged outline of school work calls for a more generous expenditure of money for school ad- ministration and the Committee presents its budget with the earnest hope that the citizens will appreciate theft urgent demands by granting the necessary appropriation to adequately carry on the work. We submit the annual report of the Superintendent of Schools for the year just closed. Respectfully submitted, GEORGE E. BRIGGS NINA F. McLELLAN HOWARD S. 0.

To the School Committee and Citizens of Lexington: I hereby submit my first report as Superintendent of Schools in Lexington, this being the thirty-ninth of the series of superintendents' reports. Since I have been connected with the Lexington schools for only a short time it, is not my purpose to speak inl detail of many of our school problems. After studying con- ditions for six months I am convinced that the Lexington schools have been under •a wise and careful management and it is my desire to continue such a policy of manage- ment. In this first report I shall speak only of those activ- ities and problems which seem to me most outstanding at the present time, always bearing in mind that the im- portance of regular classroom work is the first and great consideration of any school system. The outstanding problems for our consideration ,this coming year are the organizing of the work in our new junior high school and senior high school and the re -ar- ranging of our program in the elementary schools. NEED FOR CAREFUL ORGANIZATION For the individual child, education should be a con- tinuous process with no separate stages. For this reason, the system of education which proceeds gradually and without pcints of abrupt changes would be ideal. How- ever, whe-e, children must be educated in groups the need of school economy and efficient administration necessitates the organization of the school system into divisions which, externally at least, are more or less separate. When such divisions are necessary the problem which presents itself is, at what point or points should these tivisions be. The so-called 6-3-3 plan which has been adopted for Lexington schools is the plan largely in use throughout the country. Under this plan the elementary school work covers six years, the junior high, three years and the senior high, three years. Sufficient publicity has already been given to the need for establishing the junior high school and it is not my purpose to repeat this. Our task now is to organize the TOWN OF LEXINGTON 13 work in the different schools so as to secure the greatest good from its use. In articulating the junior high school with the rest of the school system clue care must be exercis- ed. One great danger threatens the success of the new plan, namely, that through. the separate organization at the three departments in the school system education mag lose unity. Throughout, it is necessary to keep in mind that administration should alwaye conform as far as pos- sible to educational demands; that is, that in the division of the system into three departments the greatest care should be used to avoid breaks. Particularly important in this connection are problems of articulation between the elementary schools and the junior high school and between the junior high school and the senior high school. While it seems best to make the new junior high school a unit by itself, it certainly should not be treated as a wholly independent organization with no direct relation either to the grades above or the grades behme To permit such a plan would be to invite weak- nesses not unlike .those that characterized our old organi- zation. On the other hand, the junior high school should not be made tributary or subject to the senior high school. Senior high school aims, methods and policies predominat- ing the curricula for the seventh, eighth and ninth grades would destroy whatever advantages the, junior high school possesses. Each school has its proper place and should function so as to meet these needs. The best plan of or- ganization is to have a principal and separate staff of teach- ers for each school, the entire teaching staff to act under the guidance of a teachers' council presided Duerr by the principals and superintendent: of schools, In no other way can the elementary sohool, the junior high school and the senior high school be kept distinct and at the same time co-operatively dependent. NECESSARY CHANGES 1N CURRICULUM With the completion of the new high school building which includes a lunch room, a modern science department, a gymnasium and facilities for teaching manual arts and domestic science, the question naturally arises as to the proper use of these additions. In recent years we have heard much of the term "new education". Whenever we have in mind the discussion of a new movement in education let us not reject it at once as a fad, but rather look at it from a broad point of view to discover whether it is not the result of a changed social 14 ANNUAL REPORT condition, an effort to meet the demands of a new society. It is not my purpose to discuss at length the meaning of this "new education" but rather to confine myself to some of the most typical features of the movement, for wrich I think our schools have great need; namely work in house- hold arts, manual arts and physical education. The curri- culum of the Lexington schools, is for the most part acad- emic in character. Little advance has been made in the course of study for several years. Our commercial course has been strengthened but the other courses are practically the same as they have been for years past. We have main- tained this position, we have dug ourselves in, so to speak, while a great advance movement has gone on the country over. The thoughtful citizen will at once ask himself, "why is this so'?' Is it because of any question as to the real value of these new courses? While the academic type of education is important and must be maintained, at the same time we must recognize that education has advanced beyond the single-track period of development. The writer agrees with those who stand for the so- calIed cultural subjects as providing the best opportunities for a good education. He believes that high scholarship and sound thinking can best come through the study of these subjects. Today there are few people, however, who do not believe that the hand and body should have some training and that courses should be given applicable to all types of pupils. A small percent of the school population of any community attain to what we call higher education, while a large number leave school before completing the full twelve year course of study. If we could introduce into our schoo'si more of the activities which appeal to boys and girls who t,a iter to do and make, I believe our hold on them would be more vital and prolonged. It may be interesting to compare our curriculum in re- lation to these subjects with other towns in the state. In this state SO % of the town with a population between 5000 and 10,000 inhabitants maintain courses in Household Arts and Manual Arts m the elementary schools. Over 70% of these towns maintain courses in their high school curri- culum. Considering the fact that many of .these schools have a smaller high school enrollment than Lexington, we can readily see that in this respect we are not giving our boys and girls the advantages that many others are re- ceiving. TOWN OF LEXINGTON la HEALTH EDUCATION A great opportunity for an increase in the efficiency of our population during the next decade may be found m the various forms of health education. it has generally been believed that the health problems among school children are confined to cities and that the children of the country are robust and free from disease. Recent investigation on a large scale by reliable authorities proves conclusively that this belief is unfounded. As a matter of fact, country children are found to be more defective on the whole than city children. This problem of health teaching is there- fore universal. With this thought in view, great stress is being placed by many schools upon the need of providing health education and physical training for the children. This task, in common with many others, devolves primaril upon the public schools. We have already changed our method of teaching health subjects. Instead of giving merely facts about physiology and anatomy, we are tryin to train pupils in proper health_ habits through the study of personal hygiene and sanitation. Physical education is another important branch of this health program. If this work is to be of real value it must be extended over every grade in the school, from the first grade through the high school including both boys arm girls.. It is necessary that work of this nature he property taught and carefully supervised. In the handling of schoo] athletics there is gradually coming a change of emphasis. The older type of schoal stressed athletic teams exclusively and even today many a school's reputation depends as much on its athletic prowess as upon any other factor. This, of course, if carried to an extreme, means that a small percentage of pupils arc ovcr- trained physically while a large majority fail to receive training of any kind. The ideal condition today is when every pupil takes part in sone form of physical exercises, and many schools are carrying out this plan. In a very large majority of high schools throughout this state, sim- ilar in size to Lexington, a systematic program of health training is being provided for the boys and girls. 16 ANNUAL REPORT FRILLS In 1524 reading and writing] for the great majority were "frills." In 1624 arithmethic was a "frill." In 1724 grammar and geography were "frills." In 1824 United States history was a "frill." In 1924—what is a "frill," anyway? REVISION OF THE COURSE OF STUDY To meet the changing needs of any school system i1 is necesary to continually revise the material that is being taught in the different grades. This is especially important at the present time when we are reorganizing our entire school program. Several committees of teachers are work- ing on this problem of the course of study. All the sub- jects included in the curriculum of the junior high school and the senior high school are receiving attention. It is our hope to extend this work into the lower grades and to have eventually courses covering all the school grades for your consideration. The cooperative effort of the teachers in all schools is required in order to secure the best results. Often the lack of knowledge of the classroom requirements of one grade or another makes unity of action impossible. Projects of this nature require much of the teachers' time and effort. It is gratifying that the teachers have shown an excellent spirit in the matter. GROWTH OF SCHOOL POPULATION Sufficient notice has been given the past few years of the growth in our school population that no detailed dis- cussion is required at present. The total enrollement of our schools January 1, 1924 was 1707; on January 1, 1925 our total enrollment was 1842, or an increase of 135 pupils. Notice should also be taken of the very large classes in many of our grades. With the completion of our new school buildings and by placing the seventh grades in the junior high school, it will be possible to relieve this crowd- ed condition. If we are to provide suitable educational facilities this increased enrollment means making provi- sion for at least four additional teachers and for the neces- sary textbooks and supplies. It is interesting to note the enrollment of one of our neighboring towns whose school population is similar to that of Lexington. Its total enrollment in the first six grades is 1049 pupils employing 37 teachers. The total enrollment for Lexington in the first six grades is 1090 employing 31 teachers. 'rowN Off' LEXINGTON 1? THRIFT In whatever direction one turns he is invited to spend. The man of tomorrow must be far more thrifty than the roan of today if he would make even a small succcess in life. .A counterbalancing force must be brought into his early life that will assist him in the formation of thrift habits and thrift ideals. Thrift, like health, is not entirely an information subject. It is a "do" subject. Reading about thrift will help because it will create a public senti- ment, but not very much will be accomplished for each child as an individual by information lessons. It is necessary to organize some kind of a program either in the home or in the school that will fasten thrift habits upon the child. One of the best ways of bringing this about is by means of the school savings bank plan. Arrangements were made late last year for establish- ing such a system in our schools. That it has been very successful is evident by the following figures:— LEXINGTON SCHOOL SAVINGS December 31, 1924. LEXINGTON SCHOOL SAVINGS December 31, 1924. Accounts Accounts No of No With- Anti.

In order to achieve real pro- gress, however, it is necessary to commit ourselves in a general manner to some definite policy. I have briefly out- lined some of the main problems which should tom the basis of our thought for the conning year. Sime or these projects have already been discussed in ,this report. I To organize our new junior high school and senior high school along sound and progressive educational lines. II To extend and improve our health and phsyical education considerably beyond our present program. III To make a careful study of our transportation problems and readjust them whenever advisable. IV To continue the reorganization of our course of study. V To provide for individual differences of children in so far as possible. VI To promote pupils and grade pupils for thrix best interests, always considering their physical devel: pment, their actual age and their mental age. VII To cooperate with outside agencies whenever they may help in our educational program without inter, Tering with regular school work. CONCLUSION It is a pleasure for me to meet the citizens of Lexing- ton whenever occasion makes it posible. I trust the com- ing year will find parents, teachers, School Commitee and Superintendent working together for .the best interests of our schools. I appreciate the freedom you have given me in the discharge of my duties and the cordiality of our relat- ions. I hope that the future will find continuance of the confidence you have placed in me. Respectfully submitted, THOMAS. S. GRINDLE SUPERINTENDENT TOWN OF LEXINGTON 19 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE HIGH SCHOOL December 31, 1924 Mr, Thomas S. Grindle, Superintendent of Schools, Lexington, Mass. It is a pleasure to report that, despite the distractions incident to the constructiin of the new building, and tlrt handicap of over -crowded conditions, the quantity and qual- ity of work in the high school, set by previous years, has been maintained. However, with the prospect of a new and modern building being available in September, our thoughts natur- ally turn to the future. A study made of all the courses taken by all the pupils during the first four months of this school year shows that in the college curriculum 557/2 have been given a grade lower than "8," and of all courses taken in the commercial department 79% have been given a grade lower than "B." The grades A—excellent, B—good, C—fair, D—poor, F—failure, are those recommended by the State Department of Education. From intelligence scores and past records of pupils who are doing this large amount of unsatisfactory work, we are convinced that a large number of them are able to do work of "A" or "W' grade. The fact is this high school, for many years, has been able to offer only a college and a commercial curriculum. Statistics: show that not over 50% of a student body is interested in these two fields of work, The great need in Lexington is an enrichment of its high school courses. Sewing, dress -making. cookery, and manual training, fields in which the larger number of these pupils must find their life -work, should be added. During the autumn Physical Education was confined to the developing of teams in foot -ball, hockey, tennis, and golf. While all these teams made a record which is a credit to the town, only a comparatively small part of the student body participated. In December the Selectmen gave the use of Town Hall between the hours of 3:30 and' 6 P. M. . An arrangement was made with Sargeant School of Physic- al Education to supply a director for girls on two after- noons a week. The enthusiastic response of a large number of our girls has been most gratifying. The transportation of high school pupils is unsatis- factory. Al total of 105 Senior and Junior High School 20 ANNUAL REPORT pupils come from East Lexington in two busses whose total seating capacity is 51. Moreover one of these two busses also carries other passengers. 101 come from North Lexington under similar conditions. At times pupils are refused admission to the busses: consequently, they are tardy in large numbers. The following table shows the seriousness of this problem. Number of Pupils Tardy 1924 9 20 98 120 September October November December 1923 35 69 8:i 35 In spite of the unsatisfactory conditions stated above, the morale of the school has not been weakened. This is largely due to the kindly feeling which exists between the pupils and teachers and to the able and sympathetic leader- ship of our Superintendent. Respectfully submitted, B. C.

Dear Sir: My days in Lexington this year are Tuesday and Wed- nesday. Tuesdays are given over to the Junior High and the Grades, and Wednedays to thel Senior High and the Grades. The work in music this year is being carried on along the same lines as in the past two years. During the fall term we have been str'essir.,' Rhythm—this term we are planning to stress Individual Singing and still later in the year we hope to stress Music Appreciation. As our old music readers wear out we are changing to new books got- ten out by the sank company but differing from the old books in that they contain songs only. This modern idea of teaching all musical problems through song seems to appeal to the average child more than the old method of pages of e-..ercises with an occasional song. Besides the regular class room activities in music we have two mixed Glee Clubs cee at the Hancock under the able direction oi' Miss Adlington and one at the Adams under the efficient direction of Miss'Maycock and Miss Hannon. Violin classes are being conducted at the Munroe, Hancock and Adams Schools. The Violin Classes are being taught by Mr. Charles Yeremian who has violin classes also in Medford and Milton. I feel that we are very fortunate in obtaining Mr. Yereinian's services and hope that many more child- ren will before the end of the year avail themselves of this splendid opportunity for first class instruction at such a ]ow rate. It may not be out of place at this time to men- tion the work in music which was done by the first seven grades last year which culminated in a musicale or program. ANNUAL REPORT of songs taken from the regular school work. This pro- gram embracing as it did two or three hundred children was only possible through the loyal support of the Super- intendent of Schools and the unfailing interest and efforts of principals and teachers. I should like to express my appreciation and gratitude to the teachers, principals and superintendent. The•work in music in the Junior High School is being efficiently carried on by Miss Whelpley. At present chorus is an elective subject. 1 feel that it is a mistake for music to be elective before Senior I-Iigh School. The Junior•High Grades are the grades where the boy's voices need the most careful attention and where the learning .to read from bass staff is accomplished. if music is dropped in the Junior High School it is seldom resumed in the Senior High. A prominent music supervisor has said that the Junior High School is in a school system either the cradle or the grave of music. I sincerely hope that as soon as the Junior High School has the available space that a program may be ar- ranged which has chorus as a required subject with or- chestra and Glee Clubs a girl's and a boy's elective. Music day at Senior High School means a change of furniture as well as program each week and I should like to have the principal and teachers realize. how much I ap- preciate their constant kindness and courtesy in the carry- ing out of this program. Respectfully submitted, JESSIE MAY HAGAR SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN December 31, 1924 Mr. Thomas S. Grindle, Superintendent of Schools, Lexington, Mass. Dear Sir: I take pleaure in submitting the following report as .School Physician for the year 1924. Number of pupils examined since opening of schools in fall Number of pupils with defects Total number of defects noted 183.4 1281 2049 TOWN OF LEXINGTON Many pupils have more than one defect, obviously. The defects noted are distributed as follows:— Enlarged glands in neck Defective teeth Tonsils and Adenoids Adenoids only Heart Lungs Eyes Ears Unvaccinated 841 755 159 7 55 13 96 9 114 2049 l3 If we analyze' these results, the following comments should be made: The new State record card calls for en- larged gland of neck to be recorded whereas the card for- merly used did not. Hence the large number of such de- fects, which are due to defective teeth, tonsils and ade- noids mostly. Of course, most of the glands noted aic small and of little account except as historical landmarks of past or present unhealthy tonsils and teeth, but they swell the list, nevertheless: The unusual number of heart defects is duo to the fact that every case with a heart murmur was included, though most of them had no symptoms and probably were not organic defects. Sonic cases of functional heart mar- t/Mc- noted in previous years appear to be normal today. A few have developed defects since last year's examination due to intercurrent infectious disease. Of the lung defects, most are cases of acute bronchitis which were returned to school after severe colds before the lungs had cleared up. The number of pupils still unvaccinated is astounding in this intelligent age. Of course some of them are cases which have been vaccinated from three to six times unsuc- cessfully, but there still are too many who are not vaccinat- ed simply because their parents are "conscientious object- ors" and evade having their children vaccinated through fear or ignorance mainly. The law is there to compel the ignorant to do their part to protect the other members of the community and it should be obeyed. It is astonish- ing how fast small -pox is increasing in the middle west of the United States where vaccination against it is not carried out, and soon we shall have it with us here if we do not vaccinate more thoroughly and re -vaccinate properly. 24 ANNUAL REPORT The following corrections of defects have been noted: Tonsils and adenoids 125 Teeth 295 Lungs 3 Heart 3 Eyes 17 Ears 1 Underweights (exclusive of High School) in September 68 in December 40 28 This is very gratifying and will show itself not only in better health and happiness in the children themselves, but in better attention to their school work, less repeating of grade work and censequently will eventually save dollars and cents in educating these defective children; a year saved in getting a child through chool means quite a few dollars so that detecting co; rectible defects and getting them corrected is really a good investment financially for the town. Some parents are still too careless in sending to school their children when they have severe colds, chicken -pox or mumps, and even measles or scarlet fever, all of which diseases have been spotted during, the school examination:; and the children taken out of school immediately—in some cass having already exposed other pupils and even teach- ers. Such gross eareleasae_:s is inexcusable. One parent admitted noticing a rash on her child, her argument being that if it was a contagious disease the child would be sent home! It was, but it had already exposed its mates. It is such carelessness that starts small epidemics in the schools, and then parents blame the schools! If all suspici- ous cases were kept at home till known to be uncontagious there would be fewer cases among- the school children. One child was allowed to go to school with measles rash all out in its face, which means it had been a menace to others for at least four days. Two were allowed to go to school with their faces all swollen with mumps, and thus our small epidemic of mumps started, which incapacitated several teachers as well as many children. One case of scarlet fever and several cases of chicken -pox were detected during the school examinations. I find the teachers are very alert to detect cases of contagious disease among tneo pupils. If parents will do their part it will help a lot. I wish to thank for their kind co-operation all with TOWN OF LEXINGTON 25 whom I have conte in contact in the school work.
