Our Town fortunately has .good parks, situated th on the North and South sides. The Parker's River Park, a autiful park with bathing facilities, is well patronized during my and August, when on Sundays and holidays there have been many as 2,000 visitors. This park is well cared for by our Town. Certain towns on Cape Cud, including Barnstable, Dennis, and almouth, make a charge for the use of municipal bath houses, and substantial sum is received annually from such charges. Would not be well to make some charge fur the bath houses in Yarmouthl ty do soing it might be possible to pay for the supervision.of the 'own parks. C. W. A. Many improvements, affording work to some of the nemployed, are being done in our Town this winter. The new by-pass highway recently completed at South Yar- outh is an important link in the State Highway, and a new Bass river Lower Bridge will be needed before long. Would it not be ell to have this bridge so constructed as to allow for the natural ow of the river to a greater extent than at present? A solid cause - ay, with a scanty passage for the flow of the river, as is the ease ith this bridge at present, tends to clog up the river, create sand ars, etc. Lack of space prevents more than a brief mention of this id other matters. Wise people at the beginning of the year always examine ieir budgets. It may not be out of place here to examine the Yar- outh expenses. Four years ago, the gross indebtedness of the own was $5,674.22 (see Page 25 of 1929 Town Report), while the ross indebtedness on December 31, 1932, amounted, to $241,465.34 ;ee Page 26 of 1932 Town Report). Please note that these figures 39 are the gross indebtedness and not the net. Governor Ely's advice on January 5, 1934, to the town officials of our State that these towns should all practice economy for the year 1934 is sound and wise. Let economy be our watchword. All of which is respectfully submitted. Yarmouth, January 9, 1934. THOMAS C.

So straight and tall and silent. Once you led Our people through those sad and trying days When Scandal shocked and Graft stood withering, And now—so silently—s� still—you're dead. A world, grief-stricken, bows its head and prays, While you triumphant stand before the King. Acting under Article 1, on motion of Mr. Charles R.

Miss Knowles and Gentlemen: Herewith is presented the forty-second report in the- series of annual reports by the Union Superintendent of Schools. GREAT GAIN IN NUMBERS Because of its great practical importance, attention is first called to our growth in numbers. Not counting Dennis pupils in the High School, an increase in the number of pupils, particularly among the younger children, has been beyond expectations. Since the fall of 1930 Yarmouth membership has gone from 256 to 360. In three years we have gained 104, or 40 per cent. The most startling increase took place when fifty-one children were enrolled in the first grade this last September as against thirty- one the year before. A temporary, but not permanently satisfactory, adjustment has been made of this overflow this fall. In the high school, also, as the -principal points out in his report, there is over- loading of classes. In the face of these facts it is clear that we need more room and more teaching service if right and proper standards of instruction are to be maintained. TRAINING FOR LEISURE Machines that have been constantly increasing in perfection and numbers 'have resulted in diminishing employment. Instance after instance can be mentioned to show that inventions and me- chanical improvements are displacing human workers to an alarming degree. One accepted way of overcoming unemployment is the shortening of the work day or week, or both, so as to provide live- lihood for greater numbers of men and women. The national gov- ernment is committed to this policy. This means that the individual, as a rule, will have an increasingly larger amount of leisure time :r _ _ 6 his bands. The way this leisure is used will determine whether a citizen he is to be an asset or a liability to his community. All this means that subjects in the school program which se people have thoughtlessly called "frills" have become more portant than ever in training for the wise use, and not the use, of spare time. This thought reoccurs in some of the reports oted later on. THE TEACHING STAFF There have been a few changes among the teachers during the ar. Mr. Dyke L. Quackenbush, whose conscientious and untiring 'rk as principal contributed very largely to the successful organi- tion and administration of the new school, accepted a principal - p in Stonington, Connecticut, of a larger, four-year high school: Mr. Arthur E. Jenner, who had been serving as assistant incipal and teacher of English with a high degree of success, ;s promoted to the vacant principalship. Mr. Seward F. French, who has had a successful career as ;h school principal in a neighboring state and who had been ending the last school year in professional study at the Univer-. y of Vermont, was elected to succeed Mr. Jenner as assistant incipal and teacher of English. Mrs. Inger F. Jenner, after a period of six years of able and ithful teaching of the 'commercial branches, resigned her position d was succeeded by Miss Madelyn L. Page. Mss Page has had ecessful experience as a high school teacher in Maine and more eently in a well-known private school in greater Boston. Mr. Everett L Whiting resigned as supervisor of . physical ucation iu the three towns of the union and has gone into busi- es. He has been succeeded by Mr. Hollis A. Sanderson who has me to us with a fine record of training and experience in his field. At this point it is well to correct a common, present-day im- e .sion. Teachers of real ability and out of employment are not entiful even in these extraordinary days of depression. It is true there are many people wanting to teach. Some of these wish to do so from a real desire for this type of Rork and are professionally prepared. A great many others, however, are applicants because of lack of openings in other professional fields and . in busines*.' Mary of this latter group are not only without schoolroom expe- rience- but are lacking in those elements of personality that give power and adaptability to every successful teacher. In other words, those of us who have been in touch with the field of candidate* know that even in the last two years, naturally -gifted teacheris available for service in the smaller communities are "few and far between". Our new teachers just mentioned were obtained only after a long and extended canvass and then because of a for- tunate—for us—set of circumstances. They are serving us at this particular time at an unusually low rate of compensation. With times more nearly normal, the services of such teachers will be in much demand and will command a higher rate of pay. TEACHERS' SALARIES Since 1930 there has been no pay increase in terms of annual progression from minimum to maximum. This means that those teachers who had not reached their maximum have, in effect, been taking cuts three years before the percentage cut came. Many towns and cities, including Boston, as a matter of fair play, plan , to restore these step-ups which are a partof the original salary understanding. Second, the purpose of the national administration is to raise commodity prices. This means that higher cost of living, or a depreciated dollar, is ahead. Third, the pay of our local teachers is slightlylower than in some of our neighboring towns and considerably lower than in others. Fourth, the minimum period -of preparation for elementary teachers has increased to three years with the prospects of the. standard soon being four years. The minimum period for junior 8 senior high school teachers is four years. The cost of such pro- onal preparation to the individual has increased within the last years. Fifth, the relation of price to quality is well-known. It is essed in the saying, "We generally get what we pay for". It ie same with teaching. Other things being equal, the more fa- ble the salary schedule, the more likely we are to ensure even small community an uninterrupted high-grade teaching service. All these points are valid in any fair-minded consideration of • hers' pay. THE HIGH SCHOOL The report of the principal, Mr. Arthur E. Jenner, speaks for f, and I am presenting it in full. It seems advisable, however, raw especial attention to certain data in his report. There are Fve classes with o -Ver forty pupils. There are two aes with from thirty-six .to forty students. A desirable stan- 1 is twenty-five' to thirty for senior high school and thirty to ty-five for junior high school. These facts warn us that growth in numbers is bringing us to oint where teaching service in grades six to twelve will not be luate. • Mr.- Jenner's report'follows: "The most significant fact concerning the school at present he steady continuous increase in enrolment. This growth has !ssitated the opening of another home room which accommo- !s the overflow from both the junior and senior high schools. increase has, I believe, obviated the advantages derived from departmentalization of grade six. I, therefore, recommend that vision be made to allow a 6-6 or a 6-3-3 organization. "In the senior high school .the large enrolment has neces- ted breaking some classes into divisions which has in turn in- ised the number of classes which each instructor must teach. h increases in teaching loads. have been accepted cheerfully; but 9 it should be pointed out that each teacher is capable of only so much and to overload is to decrease the efficiency of instruction. "At the present time class enrolment in the junior -senior high school is as follows: Classes containing 1-5 pupils 1 6-10 pupils 8 11-15 pupils 13 16-20 pupils 9 21-25 pupils 11 26-30 pupils 19 31-35 pupils 9 36-40 pupils 2 over 40 5 "Enrolment by subjects in the senior high school is as follows: English I English II English III English IV French I French II French III French IV Latin I Latin II Latin III Algebra Geometry Review mathematics General mathematics Elementary science Biology Physics Introductory business Typewriting I Typewriting II Typewriting III Shorthand I 55 Shorthand.

"The various departments of the school are functioning har- niously and efficiently, which testifies to the skill and cooperation the various department heads and managers. "The library has been more serviceable since the classification books by the State library worker. Its value would be even eater, if the work of cataloguing could be completed. "The work of the Parent-Teacher Association is deeply appre- ted. The 'radio-vietrola which the association presented to the ool has proved very valuable." The school wishes to express its cordial thanks to the following terested friends: To Mr. Leslie S. Johnstone for offering the prize of a hand - me desk set to the pupil in the commercial department who makes e best progress during the year. To Mr. Daniel Wing, who already has. been so generous to the hool, for a collection of rare woods and curios. To Mr. Frank H. Newcomb, who volunteered to stage a mock 'al for_ the benefit of the high school athletics, and all those who • ted in its production. To Mr. Joshua F. 'Crowell, who is offering the following prizes ✓ original poems written by high school students:—one of ten dol- rs, one of five dollars and five of one dollar each. BUDGET 'epairs We have been in our new building for two years. We ave, therefore, a very short base of comparison of expenditures. 'he expenses of the first year (1932) were unusual, as many re- uirements of the new school plant and a new high school organi- ation had to be taken care of. These demands once filled did not • 11 have to be considered the following year. The department's budget for 1933, therefore, could be reduced. This the School Committee did to the amount of $4,055. The further cut of nearly $3,000. left it impossible to attend to certain matters, such as waterproof- ing the east end of the main building, weather stripping the win- dows, improving the driveways, providing for, a more adequate water s•ipply and drainage system. It is desirable to undertake these repairs and betterments this year. Teacher Needed The attendance of first graders through the win- ter months is seldom good. This permits us just now to carry on in that room without doubling up the grades in several rooms. But if all the membership of the first grade is in school this spring, as is likely—to say nothing of next September—another teacher must be employed if we are to do for these young children what their parents have a right to expect. Fuel Since there is a sharp rise in the cost of heating, particularly with oil burners, when severe weather prevails, we have been 1n vored with a moderate expense in heating during the last_ two years because of mild winters. Also, up to this last October we have benefited by a low price for oil. We are now paying more and the tendency of the N. R. A. will be to lift, rather than to de- press, prices in the future. This fact together with the possibility of a harder winter or a cold, delayed spring would indicate.a heavier cost of heating than heretofore. Insurance On a plant and equipment worth around $185,000 we have insurance to the amount of $80,000. In case of total destruc- tion of the property we would suffer a heavy loss. Many towns insure up to from two-thirds to three-quarters of the value of their • public buildings. . Thus if disaster comes they have a sum, fairly approximate to the loss, with which to rebuild. Moreover, none of our existing insurance is on the contents of the building. • It would seem mise to put it up to the citizens of the town as to whether they prefer to risk a substantial loss by fire or to approve the added expense that a fuller coverage would entail. 12 ool Driveways The driveways, at the right, left, and in the r of the school building, over which five buses travel every school are just the natural earth originally covered with a thin layer crushed stone. They are not serviceable. In wet weather and h freezing and thawing, holes form, making wheeling rough almost dangerous. Some proper treatment should be given se road surfaces. nznrunity Use of School Plant The hall, or auditorium, is used entertainments and plays by local social organizations and for asional civic affairs. The gymnasium, likewise, is used for nces and gymnasium classes, by clubs and associations. This is it should be: These parts of the new building besides caring for e various school needs should serve as far as possible all worthy mmunity interests. - But as matter of correct bookkeeping the school department out its ordinary budget ought not to bear the expense of extra ating and lighting on occasions not connected with school ae- -ities or school benefits. Money received by any town department ust be turned over to the town treasurer. It does not become a edit in favor of the department making the deposit. Thus a sum ceived for rental of hall connot be used by the school department pay for the extra and outside expense incurred. A special sum offset operating costs of hall and gymnasium when used for civic d social affairs should be provided, either as a special appropria- on or as an auxiliary item in the school budget. IMPORTANT SUBJECTS Under this heading I am placing extracts from the reports of achers or supervisors who are specializing in certain fields of in - ruction. Accounts of their work have appeared before with some egularily, but because so many people are still unaware of the ac- ual necessity of training along these lines a further discussion is resented. 1 • 13 Vocal Music • "Individual sight singing in the grades has improved.' The method of reading music phrasewise rather than by the note - to -note process has proven most satisfactory. "Rhythmic Orchestras are in full swing in the younger grades and much enthusiasm is shown. "A few singing games and folk dances have been taught in the grades. Through these games and folk dances we are combining phrase rhythm, verse rhythm (poetry) with rhythmic movement and muscular response. `Music, poetry, and the dance have always been united.' "Vocal music in the Junior and Senior High Schools has im- proved somewhat. The graduation choruses last June were better than the previous year. "A Girls' Glee Club was organized this fall in the High School and it is a pleasure to report successful results. "Madame Schumann Heink says `Great voices are rare, but a love of music is not rare, fortunately, and that is why everyone should learn to sing' ." Beatrice M. Welsh, Supervisor of Vocal Music. Instrumental Music "Much progress has been made in the teach- ing of instrumental music in our public schools. "We have been fortunate in being able to secure very adapt- able and progressive material in order to provide the average Grade School and High School orchestra with a diversified collection of music appropriate for use in school assembly and for special occasions. The compositions have been chosen for their educational and musical worth. They are dignified yet melodious examples of the type of music that is valuable in leading young musicians to discover the best traditions of orchestra style. "Credits have been earned as the results of tests given to all the students. These tests aim to develop solo training, self-con- fidence and self-reliance not only in instrumental playing, but in other lines of endeavor. Tests of this character help the teacher 14 judge whether a pupil is working up to capacity and to emphasize he truth that nothing can be seriously accomplished without daily ractice at home. "Since music is the natural language of the emotions school iusic should palpitate with emotional life in which the best of it -as born. Therefore, if we disregard the arts as optional luxuries or the few, we have solved part of the most serious problems fae- ag the leaders of our nation who are concerned with the preparation f the rank and file of the people for wise and constructive use of nereasing hours of leisure time. "Music and the allied arts give cheer, comfort and richness to ife. They bring beauty to our materialistic civilization and beauty outributes to the moral stability of a nation." Adolpho Querze, Supervisor of Instrumental Music. 9.rt "Art is one of the most practical subjects taught. "Of all the things we use daily each of these is brought into wing by a combination of the work of the maker with the plans of he designer. "The art we are teaching is for everyone who buys merchan- lise at our stores. Practically everything we buy and use is made nto its present form because some man or woman took a pencil and first made a drawing of what he or she thought the object should ie like to best aeeomplis`h its purpose. "In order that children may grow up with knowledge of what s good in color, shape and design, we teach them the rules which lesigners have used in making useful and beautiful articles. The professional artist and designer cannot 'i-ork freely to make more beautiful things for us unless we as the public show sound judg- ment in buying. A beautiful lamp costs no more than an ugly one and is in many cases less expense to make. We are trying to teach ideals which will give us rich returns in comfort, service and en- joyment. Phillip D. Adams, Supervisor of Art. 15 The: Mechanic Arts "In this report, I wish to call particulart-L • • tentito our related shop drawing course. "A good working drawing is a business letter to a mechanic, a kind of language which gives a means of transmitting ideas from-• one person to another. It is a form of expression that is universally understood by workmen of all nationalities. A workman in Italy, China, or Russia can read the drawings if they are properly made even though the maker does not know a word of the teacher's spoken, lanugage. The mechanical language is one of the easiest to master.. It tells a complete story with fewer than' half a dozen different types of lines and just a few simple rules for their arrangement. The - rules, however, must be very thoroughly mastered to avoid trouble in putting a mechanical idea on paper and in understanding the - meaning of drawings. In a sense, without the graphic language a - good mechanic is speechless. "The draftsman is the maker of drawings; but many others, have to use them. A look at the tremendous field in which mechan- ical drawing is used will convince 'one of the true value of a good basic course. A few of the more common positions in the business world today which require the use of mechanical drawing are: home owners, workmen, business men, salesmen, patent office em- ployees, statisticians, soldiers, road builders, telephone men, masons, cabinet makers, electricians, foremen, inspectors, draftsmen, sur veyors, mining engineers; architects, teachers, lawyers, and: scientists. The importance of mechanical drawing is made even more evident when we stop to think that every tool, building, auto- mobile, bridge, or piece of jewelry which we see was first worked out on pieces of paper by draftsmen. The draftsman is a key maw in industry today; and, if he is capable and willing to work and study, his chances for advancement are excellent. "It is well to note the increase in pupil enrollment in our me- chanic arts course. This fall it became necessary to schedule the ninth and tenth grades in two divisions. The eleventh and twelfth year class has grown to such a size as to cause shop .congestion. The - required deviation has made it necessary to have the shop in operation_ 16 - !6 class periods each week as compared with. fifteen periods per 'eek last year. This means an .increase in the class time allotted o shop -work of seventy-three per cent. This necessitates the pres- nee of' the instructor in the . shop practically all of his time allotted o Yarmouth." - Edward M. Webster, Teacher of Mechanic Arts. Physical Education " `Physical Education : hould aim to provide :killed leadership and adequate facilities that will afford an oppor- tunity for the individual or group to act in situations that are phys- ically wholesome, mentally stimulating and satisf3 ing, and socially sound.'—Dr. J. F. Williams, Professor of Physical Education, Col- lmbia University. - "The town of Yarmouth is endeavoring to fulfill it: part in promoting a program of physical education which after all has as As ultimate aim the building of well-balanced men and women.. The Johu Simpkins School stands as a monument to faith in edu- zation and all its ramifications. . "The word wholesome signifies cleanliness and healthy habits. It is sound common sense to say that a boy given an opportunity to exercise in a pleasant atmosphere and to follow his exercise with a shower is forming a habit that will always be of immeasurable value to him. He will form this habit only when the surrounding situa- tions are pleasant. With this thought in mind we are attempting to build a program of" activity that will attract young people as an outlet for their pent up energies and at the same time forming de- sirable habits. "The program must provide thinking situations, -that -have a -- challenge; simple and complex games that are full of situations involving decisions; situations that produce obviously disastrous results when the wrong choice is made; situations that call for self-discipline and not the mere response to command or obedience to authority. There is only one form .of discipline that is valuable and that is discipline from within rather than from with out. "The third thought that our aim is attempting to bring out is 17 that situations must be socially sound. At what time in the history of our country have we needed men and women of social intelligence and sound ideals more than we need them at present. We do not contend that a program of physical education is the only medium through which such people can be produced but we do believe it will play an immense part in developing intelligent attitudes toward the duties of citizenship. These experimental situations should be found in games, sportsmanship situations, individual competitions, team playing, managing teams and many other miniature com- munity situations which arise in the well -organized program. Hollis A. Sanderson, Director of Physical Education. "I have noticed an encouraging improvement in the muscular coordination of the children in the past three years. Many are showing marked abilities in the various fields.' In their rhythmic work a marked improvement has been made, much of this is -due, without a doubt, to their work in vocal and instrument -4 music. In the grades the children have displayed great interest and ability in the folk and character dances of the various countries. "One rather interesting factor is, that at least sixty per cent of the girls interested in sports, such.as field hockey and basketball, are on the honor roll. The percentage who have had to forfeit this opportunity, because of low scholastic standing is very low. This proves that -a strong mind and a healthy body go hand in hand. Particularly do we need these in present times to aid young .people in the wholesome use of leisure. "Some of the specific objectives of physical education will bear re -statement. - - - - "1. To prevent handicaps and improve physical efficiency. 2. To improve the individual's posture. 3. To develop syrnetry, control and grace of bodily movement. 4. To develop ability to meet physical emergencies. 5. To develop an active response to rhythm. 6. To develop courage, honor, self-control, self-sacrifice, cont- 18 -test', kindness, loyalty, obedience, honesty, cooperation and initia- tive, 7. To create an interestin the physical welfare of others. 8. To promote the desire for wholesome`associations and recre- ations. 19 Miss Margaret_J.

"In submitting the above detailed annual report of the health work in the John Simpkins School, I take this opportunity to call - e 20 ttentiou to some of the changing trends in the field of school ursing. "The complex surroundings of the school nurse make it a ifficult task to adhere to a definite program. Time spent in school ursing is utilized most effectively if the school child is recognized the exponent of the family, of which he is a member. In order' work intelligently with the child, the family must be considered, nd any hoped for accomplishment must be first worked out in the ome. If the nurse is to spend more time in the home and less me .in the schoolroom it is necessary to make a division of the pro - ram, formerly carried by the nurse alone, among teachers, nurse, nd family. This cooperative program should be the most effective )r our aim for health protection, health promotion and health lucation." CONCLUSION In closing this report I want to re-emphasize most earnestly ie fact that in these times and in the light of the future as it is idicated to us, the spiritual or non -materialistic values of educa- on must be perceived, accepted and worked for. Art, music. literature, citizenship, dramatics, appreciation of ature and science, health, athletics and all physically recreative aines and sports—all these instead of being regarded as fads are iaracter building influences and have become vital necessities in le life of larger leisure that is being forced upon our people by le new industrial era into which we have entered. With appreciation of the fine cooperation extended through the ear by the School Committee, principal, supervisors, teachers, par - its and pupils, one with another, I am Respectfully.. yours, C. R. STACY Superintendent of Schools. December 31, 1933.

Aral :,::,�.rr'��.':� r u. w w I — 42 -REPORT OF YARMOUTH PLANNING BOARD , In accordance with the Massachusetts General Laws, the an- nual report of the Yarmouth Planning Board is herewith submitted. A meeting of the Planning Board was held last October, when the Town Parks, both on the North and South Sides, were duly inspected. Yarmouth is fortunate in possessing these good parks. Parker's River Park is well patronized by bathers, with frequently an attendance on a Sunday or .a holiday of over 2,000 visitors. The towns of Falmouth, Barnstable, and Dennis charge for the use of municipal bath houses, which sum helps to pay for the supervision -of these town beaches. Our Park Commissioners and. Selectmen may wish, after careful study, to follow this method. The Parker's River Town Park is well cared for. Some neces- :sary .work is now being done in protecting the banks from the in- roads of the sea. The elm trees have suffered from attacks by the -gypsy moth, and more spraying at the right time is recommended. It would seem wise to have someone appointed by the Park Com- missioners to remove any broken glass or debris at Gray's. Beach (North Side Town property) once a week or oftener. Our Town is growing: New citizens are coming. Building has increased, particularly on the South Side. These people come partly because our town is attractive and its natural beauty and charac- teristic Cape atmosphere have not been spoiled. Let us take steps to preserve this, befol•e it is too late. While the Town of Yarmouth some years ago rejected a plan for Town zoning, because the• citizens were apparently not then ready for it, would it not be well to follow the example of other towns and make timely- and wise provision, as Barnstable has done for instance, and adopt a by-law relating to building which should lessen the danger of fire from unsuitable and unrestricted building, always a grave menace, and at the same time help in the preserva- tion of life, health and morals? All of which is respectfully submitted_ THOMAS. C. THATCHER, Yarmouth, Jan. 9, 1935. Chairman, -Yarmouth Planning Board 43 WATER DEPARTMENT REPORT, 1934 Present number of takers, 124, an increase of 1 -- Vacancies incurred, 1 Number of gallons of water pumped, 18,667.3503. The Water Commissioners are pleased to report the following progress of the Water Department .for the year 1934: . The purchase of a new truck for the Water Department makes available at all times a more economical .means of transportation of material for construction and maintenance. Construction of garage for truck also makes a storage place for material and a place for repairs. It is the intention of the Water Commissioners to equip all ser -- vices with meters as soon as conveniently possible, in order to curtail excessive use of water and to make water rates more equitable. Under authority granted the Water Commissioners at a Special? Town Meeting, October 13, 1934, the Commissioners made a'contraet with the Barnstable Fire District to sell the District water at the rate of $110.00 per million gallons. The Barnstable Fire ,District's Water System is in working order and up to January 1st, 1935, the Yarmouth Water Depart- ment pumped 796,100. gallons of water into the system. The Water Department has postponed painting the Elevated' Tank until the Barnstable Fire District has their water system completed, so as to provide an adequate supply of water during the period tank is empty.- There mpty:There appears to be a sufficient number of wells at present to take care of present consumption. More wells will be driven if the drag on present wells increases enough to make more necessary_ Financial Statement Appropriations Balance on hand January 1, 1934, $3 340 25 Hydrant Rental. 2 500 00 Receipts from Water Rates and Services, 4 198 18 Over -payment to General Electric Co. 1 00 Credits of Water Dept. as per Town Accountant, 68 78 Total, $10 108 21 44 Amount Expended Office Supplies, Power and Lights, Superintendent's Salary, Labor, Pumping Station Supplies, Construction Supplies, Collector's Salary, ' Interest, Purchase of Truck, Garage Building, Bench, paint and cement for garage, Water Commissioners' Salaries, Freight, express and Parcel Post, Trucking, Travel of Superintendent, Tools and Equipment, IContractor and Cape & Vineyard Electric Co., thawing water services, .

To the Citizens of Yarmouth: Your School Committee desires to report that they have un- dertaken this year some very necessary and important repairs and improvements. Weatherstripping: A permanent improvement has been effected by metal weath- erstripping all the windows of the north side of the main building and all the windows on both sides of the auditorium and gym- nasium. This should result in economy of fuel during the winter days of icy north and northwest winds. . • Driveways: - At the time the new school was opened the driveways had only a light application of stone dust upon a base of ordinary sand and clay. In a short time the passing in and out of school busses, •de- livery trucks and autos, particularly in rainy and thawing weather, brought about an unsatisfactory, and at times almost dangerous, con- dition of the roadway through formation of ruts and holes. Your Committee feeling that it was real economy to improve the drives in a substantial way, have had applied what is known as Emulsion, State specification 12B. This is built as fellows: spread one-half inch trap rock, penetrate with Emulsion three-quarters of a gallon to a square yard, roll with a roller weighing not less than six tone, followed by a spread one-quarter inch of trap rock sealed with Emulsion one-half a gallon to a square yard and finally top -dressed with one-quarter inch of trap rock. At the same time certain drain- age difficulties at the northern end of the west driveway resulting from the natural slope were remedied by raising the neighboring catch basins. rr� n 'lliMir ll.,I wudl, 1 ti 1 1 1 Sewerage: A new sewerage system as recommended and approved by the people at a special town meeting last August has been completed at a cost. of $3702.47. The labor cost was $950.07 and furnished by the E. R.. A. The material cost as furnished by the town was $2722.40. . As originally planned our sewerage arrangements have not worked out well. Since the grade is from the higher part of the _ ground in the- back of the schoolhouse toward Bass River, the cess- pools were builtin the ground in front of the building and the water supply wells placed north of the building at a higher grade. However, the low level of the toilet and shower rooms in the base- ment, together with the character of the soil in the area between the main street and the building. resulted in trouble developing during the second spring of pur occupancy of the school. This was in spite of the fact that an additional cesspool was built at the end of the first school year, or in the summer of 1932. In an endeavor to correct the situation, one cesspool was deepened and equipped with two two one-half inch pipes driven down below the clay pan in the summer of 1933. This did not prevent the situation from becoming still more aggravated last spring when the cesspools had to be pumped out at frequent intervals at considerable expense and use of showers had to be discontinued. Through the earnest and active cooperation of 'the local E. R. A. administrator, Mr. Frank H. Newcomb, a new sewerage system was put through by which the labor costs were borne by the Fed- eral authorities and the cost of materials cared for by an appro- priation from the town. A subcellar was built under the east wing in which was placed an iron drum or tank weighing 2950 pounds into which is received the entire sewerage of the school and to which is attached two Nash alternating pumps. These pumps lift the sew- erage to a level three feet below the surface of the ground, connect- ing by four hundred feet of six inch cast iron pipe with a series of four cesspools, ten feet by twelve feet each. The new battery of 1.16. a: ..

There is sound reason to believe that the trouble which was. growing.worse each spring has now been overcome for all time. A Repairs: 4 0 Important repairs have been made. The large sheet -metal foul air duct at the east end of the main building had become displaced, allowing leaks to develop. The_ trouble here has been successfully overcome. A serious leak through the flat roof area in the northeastern corner of the main building bad to be remedied at considerable ex- pense. Flashings and copings in the way they were adjusted to - the tar and gravel roofing material seemed to be responsible for this condition rather than the quality of any material' itself. It is be- lieved that this difficulty now has been permanently relieved, also. One other serious leak demands attention in the new year. This main roof. is at the west end of the main building where the chimney joins the, Respectfully submitted, . HASH TAH A. RNOWLES FRANK H. NEWCOMB CAR.LTON A.

Not long ago a Cape boy of fifteen or sixteen could go to Boston and find a job of some kind if none opened up nearer home. Now until the age of eighteen, or beyond, he must be in school or on the street. Farm work for the youth has almost entirely dis- appeared as has apprenticeships in the trades. For boys and girls above the grammar school age, the high school must be a place for education for character, health, wise use of leisure and for voca- tional guidance and training. The college -bound student who so long has held the center of the stage in the secondaryschool pro- gram of studies has become only one of several groups to be served. "In the past", says President Hutchins of the University of Chicago, "if pupils did not do well they could sooner or later be dispensed with. They were absorbed by industry. Now they can- not be dispensed with. However unwilling or unable to learn they are, the school must continue to wrestle with them. There is no- where else for them to go. We shall not be able to discriminate among them at entrance. We shall not be able to rid ourselves of them until industry is ready to take them"—"The organization and content of education must be altered to take account of this fact" The business student for a fairly long time has had good vo- cational opportunity in typewriting, stenography and bookkeeping together with some other phases of office practice. But this depart- ment can be broadened to include other elements of business and mercantile life. In our own school we are at present endeavoring to develop courses in salesmanship. This field, particularly retail- ing, gives employment to a vast number of people. Tet in the past t 10 eomparativcly'very little attention has been given. in the a►nnller high schools to training for this voention. The manual and hc.n eht))d arts for those nni adnpteti to college preparation or the ecnn+nercial branches should make a worthwhile 'contribution to the education of n third group of young people. Our endeavor should be to broaden offerings in the ',radical and vck_ational fields. In an attempt. to do something more for the boy who is in- terested in and eonstrlietionl trades. your Committee has lmcleriake n an interesting experiment in providing for courses in arehitcetural drawing and building construction by a part-time teacher. Mr. Gwor=_rc' D. Carpenter, an engineer with a wide ac- lnaintvnce in construction prljeets and with a background of aue- cessful teaching experience in l`nitcxl States \'ocnt.ional Training School in hoston for disabled veterans, is conducting these classes. ENROLLMENT In east year's report attention was called to the extraordinary growth in Yarmouth's-sehcol population since 1930; a. rise having taken place in that year from 2.iti to 361 in 1933, a more than 40 per cent gain. Growth has continued in the year now dosing but in a much smaller ratio. .A table giving figures from 1930 to,1934 is appended. These figures it mist be remembered do not include the Dennis pupils attending the high school. The :heavy. membership of the first grade nicnt.ioned last year has now moved on. in rood part, to the second grade and this fall's entrants into the first grade have again crowded that room. This means that We now have overloading in two rooms, instead of one .as of last year, and that we should plan for some additional teach - dna service if high standards of pupil progress are to be maintained. TEACHING STAFF At the beginning of the fall- term, Mr. Phillip D. Adams, art supervisor in the towns of onr union, accepted a position nearer his home and at a larger salary in Huntington, Mass. Personally and professionally he aelcieved a fine auceess during his two years' stay and his promotion was well deserved. Ile has been succeeded by Mr. Arthur W. McMurtry, also a graduate from the teacher - training four -years degree course of the Massachusetts School of Art. Ile is strongly endorsed by the faculty of that institution and has had some helpful and successful evening school and part-time teaching experience. Mr. Luther H. Rowes, a growing young teacher who had been with ug t.wo yearn, accepted during the summer a much more at- tractive and inviting position in Mount Vernon, New York. In his place, but. with an adjustment of subjects, Mr. Edward Darling was appointed. Mr. Darling is a graduate of Dartmouth college, ling had a year of graduate study pit Harvard and a year of high school teaching experience. Ilia assignments are English and dram atics which are along the lines of his special preparation and in- terests. Mr. French, the assistant principal, who .last year had this department, now, at his own preference, has the social sciences. Mr. Hollis A. Sanderson, who was in charge of physical eda. cation and athletics for boys, in the towns of onr union, resigned to become assistant to the president of Westbrook Academy, Maine, and to undertake the organization of physical edncation Bourses at that school. He has been succeeded by Mr. Richard H. Pearse, a graduate of Springfield College, who had had some successful experience as a substitute in this field in the Barnstable sch000l sys- tem. In connection with teachers, the public should be informed that all Massachusetts State Teachers Colleges, formerly the normal schools, are being put on a minimum four-year course. In other words the teacher training course for elementary grades. which a . few years ago was two years in length, and only lately eha.+ red to three years, now becomes a four-year degree coarse.. Putting it still another way, it is now going to take twice as long to prepare for teaching in the grades as it used to a short time ago. Thus the { 12 standards of professional preparation will be accordingly raised and the beginning teacher correspondingly more nature, all of which is to the benefit of the children taught. MURALS Through the Public Works Administration we were able to have Mr. Vernon Smith, a noted Cape artist, do a series of paint- ings on the school cafeteria walls last February. His work has called forth high appreciation from all who have seen it and was a subject of a favorable editorial in the New York Herald Tribune of August 9, 1934. A great number of summer visitors and tour- ists enjoyed visiting the building during the vacation period to view the pictures. The theme is Cape Cod food products, a fitting one for a school cafeteria. The artist has handled his subject in an extremely skillful and engaging way, portraying the Cape's native agricultural products, fishing activities, its old-time cottages, villages and land marks, all with fidelity and charm. The project involved no expense to the school department ex- cept for the small amount of paints and materials used, the Fed- eral government paying for his services. If any of our town's people have not as yet seen the pictures, they are cordially urged to do so. SCHOOL ORCHESTRA AND BAND Out of Mr. Querze's report I am quoting a few significant par- agraphs: — — "I am often asked how American children compare in talent and musical ability with foreign children. My opinion is that the American child ranks in his musical talent with any child of any nationality that I have come in contact with. "The concerts and broadcasts that have been given are suffi- cient proof that a significant progress had been made in instrumental .:1 1 ai 16: oLJe aliRUa�d. 13 music and should make us feel proud of our community when we can say that the development of instrumental music on Cape Cod is second to none. - "There are some rather expensive musical instruments that would improve and balance the orchestra and band tremendously if we could have them. There are many children -who have shown a desire to study some of these musical instruments but cannot af- ford to pay for any. I am hoping that the day will come when we will be able to purchase those instruments that we need and loan them to those students who are willing to do good work." NEW EQUIPMENT MADE BY MANUAL TRAINING BOYS During the year the manual training department has contrib- uted to new improvements as follows: cabinet for exhibiting in part the Wing collection of Indian relics, minerals, etc.; a massage plinth for the physical education department including a storage cabinet with four drawers and two closets as well as rub -down table; six bulletin boards for the school; bookcase for grade room; shelves for music room; stage stairs fromplatform to floor of audi- torium; ' workbenches provided many years ago by Mrs. Agassiz for the village schools have 'been remodeled and reconstructed into substantial, reinforced equipment that may be used for a long time; paint table and lay -out table for woodworking shop; stairs to new sewerage pump room; shelves for woodworking shop for project displays; drawer partitions and silver trays for cafeteria and shelv- ing around the dishwasher; driveway parking signs; map frame; demonstration map of Cape Cod showing all. the different towns in colors; bicycle rack; music director's stand, portable bleacher -type seats for auditorium stage to be used for choruses and minstrel en- tertainments that require a very large number of participants. In addition the boys have repaired and reseated chairs, not only for their own and their neighbors' homes, but also for the school. In this case they have taken chairs' that were in the old buildings and fitted them for present school use. ANNIMEMBil 14 THE PRINCIPAL'S REPORT Herewith is submitted my second annual report as Principal of the John Simpkins School. Last June there were 3.4 graduates. Of these there are now 3 in college, 2 in other schools, and 3 post graduates. An encour- agingly large number have found work of some kind, either tem- porary or permanent. It became necessary this fall to use the .manual arts room as a home room in order to accommodate the high school pupils. Ow- ing to the fact that our sewing teacher's services are required to teach other subjects in the junior high school, it is impossible to set up an adequate course in clothing for the high school girls. I should like to recommend that provision be made for a 6-6 program which would make it possible to organize a more successful domes- tic science course. Our attention during the past year has been directed primarily toward pupil -subject failures, for a• pupil who must repeat a sub- ject or a year places an additional burden upon the accommoda- tions of the school. While there are many cases where it would be unjust to force a pupil beyond his capacity, we have found that in many instances the slow pupil by being better adjusted to his work has been able to improve with sufficient rapidity to permit his advancement. Conferences with pupils covering a period of six months elicited the following contributory causes of failure. Unsatisfactory conditions for study at home Excessive smoking Late hours Absence from school Headaches (presumably from eye strain) Inattention in class 2 4 5 4 1 1 r.r�IINr61rrii ii1i r 111 li 1 1 3 i 15 Failure to understand assignments "Laziness" Poor study habits Parents, pupils, and teachers agree that a large proportion of high school students do not know how to study. These facts as well as others convinced us that a rearrangement of the program might be beneficial. Therefore in September the program which last year consisted of a day of 40 minute periods was changed to a day containing five sixty minute periods and one thirty-five minute period. Al- though subjects are taught four times a week instead of five as for- merly, the four sixty minute periods .give 240 class minutes as com- pared with 200 class minutes or a gain of 40 minutes per week. Too, the hour period allows for a fifteen or twenty minute super- vised study period following the assignment whenever it seems advisable. Owing to the fact that our population is so •scattered, the bi- monthly warnings asking for conference between teacher and parent - seemed unfeasible. These warnings have been replaced by weekly conferences of the principal with the failing pupil. These confer- ences are generally followed by a make-up session of pupil and teacher. . Due to the close cooperation between pupils and teachers, we have been enabled to reduce the number cf subject failures materi= ally. The close of the marking period, October 31, 1934, showed only 36 subject failures as compared to 57 for October 31, 1933, a decrease of 31 per cent. To do this, slow pupils and pupils who have lost time from absence have remained after school for extra help. This work could be furthered if there were a late bus to take such pupils home. 2 14 26 • The athletic association has done well. From September, 1933, to June, 1934, it had receipts of $549.46 and disbursements of $536.61, leaving net balance for September, 1934, of $12.85.

The senior high school chorus has increased from 97 to 145. It has already appeared several times cn assembly programs and at one public performance. The scholarship fund, founded by Mr. Newcomb in 1933, now amounts to $173.23. $105.37 was added to the fund during the past year. The school library has been increased by 177 books, 74 non- fiction, 103 fiction. Most of these were donated by the Yarmouth - port library, many by pupils and interested friends and a few were purchased by the school department. Our library grows con- tinually in effectiveness. In speaking of library work, I should like to mention gratefully the material aid which we have received from the public libraries during the past year. Our cafeteria is a very cheerful place with its new murals and the gracious and efficient services of our cafeteria staff. Prices have been kept down to last year's level, but rising food costs pos- sibly may make a slight increase necessary. The cafeteria, it should be understood, is self-supporting. The prizes offered by Mr. Joshua F. Crowell for original poems, as mentioned in our last report, were awarded as follows: the first prize of ten dollars was won by Theodore R. Rowley of South Yar- mouth and entitled I LOVE TO WALK BY THE SEASHORE; the second prize of five dollars by Cynthia Haskell of West Dennis, LINCOLN DID NOT DIE; the third prize of three dollars by Muriel Robertson of West Yarmouth, FIRE PICTURES AND GIANT WINTER'S TEARS; the fourth prize of two dollars by Mary A. Brown of West Yarmouth, AUTUMN AND THE SEA; the fifth prize of two dollars by Eleanor Childs of West Yarmouth, PEACE AND OH, BEAUTIFUL SPARKLING STAR; the three • remaining contestants each received one dollar for honorable men- tion: Martha Robinson of Bass River, MY BROTHER; Alberta Dunbar of West Yarmouth, LONELY WEEPING WILLOW; 18 Clarence M. Burgess, Jr., of South Yarmouth, THE FISHERMAN AND HIS SHIP. An interested citizen of the town who wishes to remain un- known very kindly offered this last fall a series of prizes for the best letters written on the subject of What I Want To Become. The prize for girls was won by Amy Clark, the prize for boys by Donald Mitchell. Supplementary awards of pen and pencil sets were won by: Edith I. Baker, Irene Chase, Dorothy Perry, Gor- don Kelley, Jr., Brownell E. Baker, Jr., and Burton Robinson. There were seventy-eight entries and the judges were very favorably im- pressed with the quality of thought and facility of expression ex- hibited in these letters. In closing, I wish to thank you and the committee and the en- tire school staff for the gracious cooperation I have been accorded during the past year. Respectfully, ARTHUR E. JENNER, Principal. HEALTH School Physician's Report The situation in the schools as regards communicable diseases in general has been `quite satisfactory throughout Barnstable Coun- ty.. No case of diphtheria has been reported in a school child and arrangements are being made for the continuation of the immuniza- tion clinics in all Towns. Much interest has been taken during the year by all teachers in the matter of checking such minor commun- nicable disease conditions as have occurred and this attitude is ap- preciated by the Health Officer. • It appears to be a fact that physical conditions among school children do improve somewhat from year to year and more atten- tion is eonstantly given to the matter of cleanliness, etc. Dental work has been carried on as usual and large clinics have been held 3 19 in one or two places where formerly a comparatively small amount _ only of this work Was done. • As above stated toxoid clinics are being and will. be held in all schools and I wish particularly to express my thanks to the nurses for the effective way in which they have arranged for this work. Every effort is being Made, of course, to correct such remedial physical defects as are found during tie regular physical exam- inations. The co-operation of all officials in this and all other mat- ters has been, very efficient and effective. The matter of school lunches, proper milk for the children, etc., has been given considerable attention by those concerned, through- out the year, with very satisfactory results. Every effort will be made to properly carry on the health work in the schools during the coming year. .Respectfully, A. P. GOFF, M. D. School Nurse's Report The Health pirograin for the Yarmouth school during the past year has been carried along practically the same line as in the pre. vious year. Various clinics have been conducted in an effort to eliminate and detect disease thereby increasing tl.e students attendance at school. Of these, perhaps the Toxin -anti -toxin clinic, for the pre- vention of Diphtheria, is recognized to a greater degree by the laity, as being a valuable asset to the community. In as much as this treatment is ordinarily necessary only once during a child school life, our numbers for attendance at this clinic grows less rather than more each year, yet a check shows a large percentage who are immune to Diphtheria. The Chadwick 'Clinic (Tubercular) was conducted for the first time this year under the supervision of the County. Sanatorium of which Dr. Wagner is the director. The Eye clinic is sponsored by 20 the District. Nursing Association as their contribution to school health in the three towns which they serve. We ere indebted to the County Health Department for the use of their equipment for our Dental clinic and for the Audiometer used in ear testing. . For the helpfulness and spirit of co-operation we have found in onr work, we wish to extend our appreciation to Superintendent, Principal, Teachers and students.

One call was made in assisting the rescue of a family lost the Yarmouth marshes. Company No. 2 is building up a rescue squad and it is with pleasure that I can announce that eight Fire men have completed the Standard Course of First Aid. and are nowwell along on the Advanced Course of the Red Cross First Aid. It is encouraging to me to have over fifty percent of my crew show this interest, as they have to put in many hours of study and practical demonstrations to be able to pass the examinations, to qualify for their certificates. This interest is further shown by the 'fact that they receive no compensation for their time. In the one call we had this year to assist in a drowning case, the men taking this first aid course voted unanimously not to accept any remunera- tion for their time and work. This spirit however is not restricted to the Rescue Squad alone, but is shown by the entire crew, in the almost perfect attendance at practice meetings and the way and manner in which they keep their respective trucks and equipment up to par. Company No. 2 has been handicapped the last few years by not having their full budget appropriation available to meet current expenses, and to replace worn out equipment. It is wise to practice economy at all times, but I fell it is unwise to impair the efficiency of the only emergency department that is available at all times to any citizen by reducing the budgets of the Fire Department. As the Chief Engineman of Company No. 2 I believe that I have sub- mitted a fair estimate of this department's expenditures for the coming year and in the advent that this money is not needed it 3 A 12 $60000 205.00 11,000.00 4,000,00 of a boy' 1h 46 ` -ill remain as a balance to the account of this Company as it'. has past years. In my budget estimate this year is an item of $250.00 to cover e replacement cost pf the tires on the Maxim Fire truck. We are now entering the sixth year of the Fire Department, and during this time tires, although they look as good as new have been de- teriorating by dry rot until it is, in my opinion, no longer safe to • risk the lives of Firemen who ride on them. The Yarmouth Firemen's Relief Association of this company has been active this year and has furnished the Firemen entertain- ment, and has as usual paid the Firemen's Insurance in the Mas- sachusetts State Firemen's Association. Respectfully submitted, Yarmouth Fire Department Company No. 2 by U. FREDERICK STOBBART, Chief Engineman. , i • 1 it a a 1 1 i ■ i 47 REPORT OF YARMOUTH PLANNING BOARD In accordance with the Massachusetts General Laws, the Yar- mouth Planning Board have the honor of submitting their anneal report. In 1939 will oecur the three hundredth anniversary of the settlement of our town. This event should not pass unobserved it may be deemed wise to have the exercises or celebration as simple as possible). We recommend that at a Yarmouth town meeting a com- mittee be appointed to look into this matter, and later on report, with recommendations and an estimate of expense. At the last annual Yarmouth town meeting, held on February 12, 1935, the following vote was passed: VOTED, that it is the sense of this meeting that Article 38 be postponed and that the Planning Board make such recommendations for consideration at the next annual town meeting as will best promote the health, safety, convenience and welfare of our inhabitants, lessen the danger from fire, and will tend to improve and beautify our town. Inasmuch as no appropriation accompanied this vote, should not our town at our next annual town meeting, in order to earry out the purpose of the above vote, authorize a suitable appropriation for expert adviee and careful study, and then after this is done, should there not be a wise plan presented by the Planning Board for considerationat some future town meeting? The Planning Board recommends this action. This question is a most important one. It concerns every voter in our town. Wise action will benefit and not hurt any citizen_ We all love our town and wish to preserve its beauty and char- acteristic Cape Cod charm. Yarmouth, with its elm-archedstreets and beautiful Cape houses and beaches, is unrivalled. The Cape, however, is changing. We face new problems: by-passes, new high- ways, with the possibility of a mid -Cape road. Let us take wise action before it is too late. More could be said but this report must be brief. No one knows the Cape better or loves it more than the writer of the following letter, full of sound advice. 48 "The preserving of Cape Cod as Cape Cod is, in my opinion, a vitally important subject for consideration by Cape people. We are adding to our summer population each year. The great majority of visitors to our county have been attracted to it because of its individuality, its siniplicity, the charm wiich is its own. There are thousands of seaside resorts but only one Cape Cod. It seems to me that every. Cape Codder and lover of the Cape should realize how important it is to save our towns and villages from becoming merely copies of towns and villages elsewhere. We come to the Cape in summer to get away from all that. We remember and love Cape Cod as it used to be, we love it as it now is. We do not want it to be an imitation of anything. An original is always better than a copy. "And this is not entirely a sentimental consideration. In my opinion to permit Cape Cod to lose its individuality would be very disastrous from a business standpoint. •Cape Cod all -the -year resi- dents, its shopkeepers and business. men and hotel -keepers, should, I am convinced, do everything in their power to save the old build- ings and landmarks, to keep our picturesque roads and streets from becoming city boulevards, to preserve the genuine Cape Cod flavor, where it is possible. That they will profit materially by doing so I am sure. am a Cape Codder born and bred and, even now, I spend almost half of each year on the Cape. I want to keep on doing so. My summer neighbors are, many of them, importations—they came to the Cape almost casually, were attracted by the charm and in- dividuality I have mentioned, came again and again, and, at last, built homes there. And they are now as staunch lovers of Barnstable County as the rest of us. They are the sort of people we want here as summer residents, they bring their families here, they spend their money here. If the Cape becomes something other than the Cape Cod they know and love, they will continue to do none of these things. "So, whenever any movement is on foot to save and preserve the real Cape Cod it should have the support of us all. Let's get 49 together and work for that end. That the result will be worth' work- ing for I am certain. "This letter is longer than I meant it to be. I apologize for the length but—well, you see, Cape Cod, its people, its welfare and its future, are pet subjects of mine. - Yours very truly, {Signed) Joseph C.

The appropriations and transfers as entered in the ledger were checked with the town clerk's record of appropriations and transfers voted by the town. The ledger accounts were analyzed, the postings in the ledger were checked to the books of original entry, the necessary adjustments were made to bring the ledger into balance, a trial balance was taken off, and a balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was pre- pared showing the financial condition of the town on October 22, 1935.

The recorded receipts were analyzed and compared with the records in the departments collecting money for the town and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the payments were checked with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds. The cash balance on October 22, 1935, was proved by a reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement furnished by the bank of deposit. The payments of maturing debt and interest were proved with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file. The savings bank books representing the investment of trust funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed. The income was proved and the withdrawals were checked with the receipts shown in the treasurer's cash book.

The payments to the treas- urer for the several levies were compared with the treasurer's cash book, the abatements were checked with the assessors' records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the accounting officer's ledger. Verification notices were mailed to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the re- plies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct. The records of tax titles taken by the town since the previous audit were checked with the deeds on file and reconciled with the accounting officer's ledger.

The surety bonds of the treasurer and of the tag collector for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form. The surety bond of the town clerk was found to be in the form of a continuation certificate, in which connection it is recommended that an annual bond be filed.
