SELECTMEN'S REPORT.

Fellow Citizens of Hyde Park ;

Your Board of Selectmen chosen to administer the affairs of the town for the year just closed herewith presents its re- port for your consideration.

We have endeavored in all respects to carry out the line of policy settled six years ago by an overwhelming public sentiment. This policy being to avoid increasing the pub- lic debt ; to reduce as rapidly as possible existing liabilities with their corresponding interest ; to devise and carry out a definite plan for the improvement of the town ways, both streets and sidewalks.

The town policy as interpreted by the successive Boards from the time mentioned, has been on the one hand to avoid any large expenditures which would increase the rate of tax- ation, and on the other hand to procure for the Town those modern conveniences and comforts possessed by the leading cities but often lacking in towns ; such as well built and well kept roads, good sidewalks, good street lights, &c. In brief a systematic, progressive, far sighted policy combined with a "wise economy."

The street lights were of course in use previously, but these have been extended to cover the town more perfectly to meet the wants of an increasing population.

HIGHWAYS.

Within the past few years a general movement has been in progress throughout the country, looking towards better roads and sidewalks.

This movement, in connection with more and heavier trav- el, and the growing scarcity of suitable gravel in town, led

(5)

6

the Selectmen of six years ago to procure a Stone Crushing Apparatus, and to lease a suitable ledge of rock.

The experiment proved an immediate success, and streets are now built which will stand for many years with few or no repairs.

A Steam Roller was desired to supplement the Stone Crusher, but pressing calls in other directions deferred its purchase until the present financial year, when the Town made an appropriation for this purpose, and the Board was enabled to purchase one at a very low price. Two Steam Road Rollei' Builders volunteered to exhibit their machines in actual service, and Business street, being nearest the ledge, and badly in need of repairs, was selected as the scene of operations, one roller being placed at each end, and the entire street reconstructed.

An object lesson in modern road building in Hyde Park was thus for the first time afforded the Selectmen, and a large number of interested citizens. Both machines per- formed their work so admirably that after an extended test the Board was for a time in doubt which to select, finally however deciding upon that made by the O. S. Kelly Co. of Springfield, Ohio, which was considerably heavier than the other made by the Harrisburg Foundry & Machine Co., of Harrisburg, Pa.

As in the case of the Stone Crusher, the purchase of a Steam Road Roller has proved a valuable investment, and after using it for the season we are satisfied that the town could hardly have made an expenditure which would yield better returns than by the purchase of this machine.

Pierce street has in the past given much trouble, being in places wet and spring}", and was in such condition that it was necessary to dig out some parts of it to a depth of 18 inches and to fill with crushed stone. Drains of loose stones were also put in to carry off the flow of water, and the whole- street was put in good order.

Central avenue from West Eiver street to Webster street has had a covering of crushed stone, carefully rolled.

Beacon street from the Milton line has been thoroughly built to Metropolitan avenue. Much of this street was but little better than a bog, and required to be dug out to an av- erage depth of about two feet, the loam or mud being re- placed by broken stone, and as in the case of Pierce street, suitable Drovision was made for drainage. The town of Mil- ton at considerable expense, had built its part of the street to the Hyde Park line, and as several building contracts (amounting as we were told, to over $20,000,) awaited the action of the Selectmen, it was deemed judicious to make this improvement, though the expense was considerable. Riverside square has also received much needed attention.

Much other needed work has been done on the highways of less extended character, and the utmost pains have been taken to have all the town ways kept up to the highest stand- ard, so far as the available means would warrant.

LEDGE.

The town in the past has been fortunate in leasing at a nominal price from the heirs of Geo. Hail, a ledge located near Brainard street and Glenwood avenue, of excellent stone with ample ground room for the operation of the Crushing Apparatus.

It was anticipated that this and neighboring ledges would afford the town aU the stone required for the building and repairing the streets for many years to come. The Metro- politan Park Commissioners have, however, taken this and the other ledges. It will therefore be necessary the coming year to make other arrangements, and to buy or lease a ledge in some other locality.

STONE CRUSHER.

Since the present apparatus was purchased, valuable im- provements have been made in this class of machinery, and

it might prove true economy to dispose of the present crush- er and purchase one of later design, with facilities for de- livering ;the crushed stone of different sizes into bins, from which it can be drawn out to fill stone teams as they are driven under them.

It is ^quite probable that the present plant could be dis- posed]of to the Park Commissioners, it being all ready in position and located where they will need stone for their extensive improvements, and the matter may be arranged to the mutual advantage of both parties, should the town decide to sell, and to purchase a new crushing plant.

SIDEWALKS.

These have caused past Boards considerable trouble, es- pecially in the absence of a sidewalk appropriation. Where curbstones only have been desired the town has usually set them without cost when citizens have paid for the stone. This rule has been modified, and now the town furnishes curbing, and also makes either a gravel or concrete sidewalk when the abuttors agree to waive all claims for damages, and to pay within thirty days after completion, one half the total cost. This rule of course presupposes that there are funds available and that the season is not too far advanced.

The town has usually voted that the betterments thus paid shall go back into the Highway appropriation, but at the last annual appropriation meeting this vote was changed, making all money received from any betterments applicable to sidewalks only. This seems to us unwise action, taking as it does money from the Permanent Improvement appro- priation to make sidewalks, and then preventing the bet- terment money from going back to the appropriation from which it was taken.

A larger amount of sidewalk building than usual has been done.

There has been laid :

In Summer street, 1133.42 square yards of concrete, 729.25 feet of straight curbing and 12 corners.

On Hyde Park avenue, 893.70 square yards of concrete, 743.70 feet of straight curbing, 70.45 feet curved curbing and 22 corners.

On Davison street, 108.67 square yards of concrete, 280.59 feet of straight curbing and 4 corners.

OnFairmount avenue, 73.33 square yards of concrete, 85.23 feet of straight curbing and 2 corners.

On Walter street, 76.85 feet of straight curbing.

On Westminster street, 40 28 square yards of concrete, 44 8 feet of curved curbing.

On Greenwood avenue, 77. 63 square yards of concrete, 4 feet of straight and 57.5 feet of curved curbing.

On some other streets small amounts of sidewalk have been built, all under petitions from the abuttors who as- umed one half of the cost of such construction, and which have very materially added to the appearance of those streets, as well as to the list of Permanent Improvements of the town.

In the Readville district a large amount of excellent grav- el having been offered the town free of cost, the opportunity was improved to repair a very considerable extent of side- walks on Readville and Damon streets, a portion of Central Park avenue was re-rolled and Damon street repaired.

As always, a large amount of highway work awaits im- proving or rebuilding. Metropolitan avenue between East River street and Riverside square remains unfinished, and will require blasting to an average depth of about three feet through solid ledge. There is little or no travel over this part of the avenue, but the decree of the County Commis- sioners still requires its completion. There is also a liabili- ty to accidents, which might involve a cost to the town of far more than the amount necessary to complete this part of the avenue, which it is estimated will cost $1500 ; other parts of Metropolitan avenue also need considerable work done to bring it up to grade.

Warren avenue has been accepted by the town, but no ap-

10

propriia.ti.on has ever been made for building it. As this av- enue was unsafe for public travel at the time of its accept- ance, the Board has done what was necessary to make it safe, but in the absence of an appropriation were unable to- properly build it.

Hyde Park avenue from Westminster street to Post Office square has given rise to more thought and worriment to the present and preceeding Boards of Selectmen than probably any other piece of highway in the town, from the fact that for a length of 800 feet there is a fall of but six inches to the hundred teet, which is utterly insufficient to drain the street. It seems impossible to cut it down to a proper grade, as heavy damages would result. We think the only solution of the difficulty would be to sink a large pipe the entire length upon one side of the street with suitable catch basins, and with connections from the opposite side of the street. To do this properly would cost at least $2000.

From the junction of Hyde Park avenue and Central Park avenue, and thence to a point in Readville above the Morris Safe works, the grades and bounds are indefinite, and the mat- ter is now on application of the Board, in the hands of the County Commissioners. Meanwhile, though large amounts have in preceeding years been spent upon Central Park avenue, it is still in bad condition and scarcely safe. After the grades and bounds are properly defined nearly the whole avenue should be completely rebuilt and macadamized.

The condition ot these two avenues, involving a stretch of road nearly two and a half miles long, and about to be traversed by the tracks of the Norfolk Suburban Street Railroad Co., seemed to the Selectmen so important, that advantage was taken of a town meeting, called for another purpose, to bring the matter before the town for consulta- tion. The Selectmen simply stated the case, but declined to ask for an appropriation. The town, after some discus- sion, decided to let the matter lie over.

11

The Board sold a considerable amount of road material to the Norfolk Suburban Street Railroad Co., and also sold at its original cost, a lot of gravel land on Dana Ave., fronx which all the available gravel had been removed ; as also a small lot of land on Thatcher St. It becoming necessary to buy gravel in other localities, they asked that this money, amounting in all to about $1,500, might be transferred to the highway appropriation, which was done, and this addi- tion proved ample to complete all the necessary work con- templated for the financial year.

ACTIONS AT LAW.

In the case of Sarah S. Fuller, of Boston, against the town, the jury rendered a verdict in behalf of Mrs. Fuller in $3,633.33, debt or damage at the October sitting of the Superior Court, 1893. The exceptions taken in behalf of the town were argued at the March sitting of the Supreme Judicial Court. On the following July, that Court over- ruled the exceptions, and thereupon judgment was entered upon the verdict of the jury, which, with the plaintiff's tax- able costs and interest to that date, amounted to $3,962.74.

The suit by William H. Ruddick against the town, in which the plaintiff claimed $1,500 damages in consequence of certain injuries received by the plaintiff near the junc- tion of River street and Wood avenue, which suit has been pending for about two years in the Superior Court, has been disposed of in the town's favor.

The case of- Nancy Bohannon, in which the plaintiff sought to recover $4,000, pending in the Superior Court, Suffolk County, and described in the last annual report, was trans- ferred to Norfolk County, and was tried at the October sit- ting of that Court, and a verdict rendered against the town in the sum of $500, debt or damage, which, with plaintiff's taxable costs amounted to $551.27.

For a fuller description of the suits hereinbefore described,.

12

reference may be had to the two preceeding annual reports.

A suit was brought against the town in the Superior Court, Norfolk County, by John Haney, in which the plain- tiff claimed $8,000 for injuries sustained as alleged in his declaration, and claimed by him to be on account of the defective condition of the engine used in connection with the stone crusher, iu November, 1892. The town denied that there was any defect in the engine, or in anything con- nected with the stone crusher. This case was set for trial for the present January sitting of the Superior Court, but after conferences by the respective counsel, the Board authorized the town's attorney to settle the suit without trial, for $420.

Lomelia A. Bickford, Aclmx. of the estate of Levi P. Bickforcl on the 27th of December, 1894, brought an action against the town to recover $204.47, with interest on the same, for cash which the plaintiff claimed was paid by mis- take for taxes during the lifetime of the said Levi P. Bick- ford. The suit is made returnable to the Superior Court, Norfolk County, on the first Monday of February of the present year.

The Commissioners of the Metropolitan Park District, in May of last year, brought a petition in the Supreme Ju- dicial Court, praying to have three commissioners appointed to determine how the expense incurred in connection with the park and boulevard system of that district should be apportioned among the different cities and towns within the district. At a hearing to determine how commissioners should be appointed, every city and town in the district was represented. After conferences between the counsel representing the different cities and towns, and hearings before the Court, Hons. Geo. F. Richardson, of Lowell, Clhas. W. Clifford, of New Bedford, and Hiram P. Harri- man, of Wellfleet, were appointed by the Court as com- missioners to determine how the amount of expense incurred

13

and to be incurred in connection with the park and boule- vard system, shall be apportioned between the different cities and towns in the district. This is a subject of impor- tance to Hyde Park, as well as to other municipalities in the district. Various hearings, have been held before the com- missioners thus appointed, and the case now stands contin- ued until the third of May next, for further consideration.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.

At the last annual meeting the Selectmen were authorized to contract with the Hyde Park Water Company, for addi- tional hydrants in accordance with the recommendation of of the Fire Engineers. After consultation and correspon- dence with the officers of the Company, we found that no additional hydrants would be furnished except at the origi- nal price named in the contract now in force, viz : $50 per hydrant. We did not deem it best to contract for the extra hydrants at that price, and the appropriation for that pur- pose being insufficient, the matter was dropped.

Fortunately the year has been free from large conflagra- tions, and the absence of the extra hydrants has not been severely felt. We believe, however, that these extra hydrants should be provided to protect the property of citi- zens whose buildings and improvements in those localities have added very materially to the taxable property of the town. It is to these same localities that the town must look for a large part of its future growth, and the corresponding increase in real estate values.

The report of the Engineers will be found on another page.

STREET RAILROAD.

The Norfolk Suburban Street Railway Company began to operate its cars over the Dedham and Mattapan line on May 21st, 1894. Owing to changes of construction required

14

by this Board in the Summer, it was impossible for the Com- pany to complete the Keadville and Forest Hills line, within the time allowed, and a further extension of two months was granted. The cars began running regularly over this line, September 14, 1894, since which time the service has been uninterrupted.

Your Board has been convinced that considerable extra expense will be entailed upon the town in the matter of maintaining in good condition, the streets through which these cars run. but it is quite probable that the public con- venience will be served to such an extent, as to more than offset this additional expense.

POLICE.

Early in the year Mr. Chas. E. Jenney, who had served the town for many years as Chief of Police, resigned his office, and Mr. James McKay was appointed to the posi- tion for a term of three months. His services during this term proved so acceptable that at its close he was unani- mously elected to the office for the balance of the year. Mr. McKay has proved himself a careful, wise and ener- getic officer, and his administration of the office has been entirely satisfactory.

The increase of appropriation for this department has en- abled the Board to call upon any desired number of special police, for any special duty, the special police receiving no salary except when actually on duty.

Further particulars of this department will be found in the report of its Chief.

DRUGGISTS LICENSES.

The Board decided this year to grant 6th class liquor licenses to all the druggists who applied, and to put them all under the immediate supervision of the Chief of Police, who was instructed to report every month to the Board, the

15

entire number of sales by each druggist. He was also in- structed to notify each holder of a license, that any known violation of its provisions, would result in its cancellation. Under this plan sales have decreased, and no complaint from any quarter has been heard. Active efforts have also been made to stop the illegal selling of intoxicating liquors, and it is believed with a good degree of success.

APPROPRIATIONS.

For the guidance of the town we present in parallel col- umns the amounts voted at the last annual appropriation meeting, for the various departments, together with an estimate of the sums required for the present year.

It will be noted that for highways we have changed the

relative amounts required* for Current Expenses and for

Permanent Improvements. In the earlier years of the town,

16

$4,000 answered for patching the streets, cleaning out gut- ters, filling washouts and clearing snow, but with the addi- tion of some thirty or more streets, the vastly increased travel, the salary of the Supt. of Streets, and the expense of a horse and carriage for his use, it is evident that a much larger sum is needed for highway current expenses, than has usually been appropriated. Were the line between the two parts of the highway appropriation less shadowy, great in- convenience would have resulted.

We think it wise for the town to settle just what it will undertake each year, in the way of Permanent Improve- ments, after appropriating the amount necessary for Current Expenses, which we estimate as above.

We renew the recommendation of the previous year, that the proceeds of the corporation and national bank tax be appropriated for fire hydrant service.

It may prove of interest to quote the rates of taxation for each year since the town was organized, as also the amount of the tax levy, and the total valuation. The table below furnishes this information.

The Board in conclusion, congratulates the town on its present satisfactory financial condition. The bonded debt has now become reduced to $25,000, the last of which will be paid within three years, and $6,000 of this, on the Cem- etery Account, will be met by sales of lots, etc., leaving but $19,000 to be raised by taxation. The interest account, which in 1874 and 1875 exceeded $19,000 per year, was reduced last year to $3,500, and is now but about $1,000 on the bonded debt, though each year a certain amount has to be paid by the treasurer, for money borrowed for current expenses in anticipation of taxes. The rate of taxation has gradually decreased since 1882, and the past year has seen the lowest rate for many years, excepting in 1891, when it was the same as now.

Each year brings with it its own responsibilities and duties, and we bespeak tor our successors the same kind and courteous treatment which has been accorded to us, and which has in no small measure, lightened the burdens which must naturally devolve upon your public servants.

Voted to discontinue the choice of such commissioners. Adjourned.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH.

To the Citizens of Hyde Park :

In giving this our annual report, we would call attention to the many changes which have been made in different parts of the work, either to comply with laws of the State or with what in the opinion of the Board was for the best in- terest of the town.

MEETINGS AND ORGANIZATION.

The regular meetings of the Board have been held as in previous years with such additional meetings as were neces- sary to do the work required. At the first meeting the Board organized by choice of J. C. Lincoln, M. D., as Chairman and Edwin C. Farwell as Secretary,

SEWERAGE.

Again we wish to urge the importance of sewerage for the "town. We have had a system of water supply for ten years, and it is the opinion of the Board that unless a system ot sew- erage is soon adopted to take care of the large supply of wTater, the soil will become so infiltrated with the same, that trouble will ensue. The money which is paid for clearing vaults and cesspools would pay the interest on a Jarge portion of the money it would take to build the sewer.

VAULTS AND CESSPOOLS.

Owing to the complaints of many of our citizens, the Board thought best to make a change in the manner of clearing vaults and cesspools. The old method made it nec- essary to have this work done in the night for about one- half of the year. One objection to this was that the air be- ing heavy and lying low, the bad odors would remain much

(37)

38

longer than in the daytime, and at that season of the year when windows are open, must fill the house and form apart of the atmosphere we breathe, whether asleep or awake. Another reason was that in the season when this work was- allowed in the daytime, some of our places of business were very much damaged for a time by the foul odors which come from this method of doing the work, to say nothing of the stench that was left in the streets as these teams went to and from their work. The attention of the Board was called to- the work done by the apparatus known as the Odorless Ex- cavator, and after a thorough examination, this method was adopted. The cost of fitting up for this S3^stem was so great that neither of those who had formerly done the work cared to undertake it (or at least so the Board understood) and the permit was given to one party who is under the direc- tion of the Board. It is not intended that the expense shall be much in excess of previous years, although in our opinion each individual can better afford to pay more than to go back to the old method.

INSPECTOR OF PLUMBING.

Early in the year to conform to the laws of the State the Board took up the matter of the appointment of Inspector of Plumbing. Applications were received from several for the position, which was finally decided by civil service ex- amination, and given to the one who received the largest per cent, in rank. Afterwards the Board appointed an as- sistant.

BOARD OF EXAMINERS.

In compliance with the law, a Board of Examiners was ap- pointed consisting of the Chairman of the Board of Health and two local plumbers. This board reported to the Board of Health five master plumbers and nine journejmien plumb- ers. Licences were granted to the same and they registered as did also all out of town plumbers doing work in town^

39

Rules aucl regulations were, after careful consideration by the Board of Health and Examiners, adopted, and the parts relating to material and work were with a few changes adopted as by-laws of the town. Eighty one permits have been granted for new and old work, and one hundred and seventy three cases were found where rules were not corn- complied with, which after attention was called to them were made right. It is hardly fair to expect that mistakes would not be made at this, almost the commencement of the work. The Board have tried to be just to all, and still maintain that the law must be complied within all cases. It is for the next Board to perfect what has been so imperfectly started.

COMPLAINTS.

Nearly one hundred complaints have been investigated and most of the places have been attended to ; some have had to be put over until another season on account of the cold weather. The land at the corner of Gordon avenue and Childs street has been drained and we hope will give no further trouble. There are several other places in town which need attention and parties have been notified to that eftoct.

DUMPING ASHES.

We wish to call attention to the dumping of rubbish on land situated between Central Park avenue and the Hyde Park station on the N. Y. N. H. & H. R. P., which was lately put in good condition, by the Building Co. It seems as though any one who has the good of the town at heart would refrain from spoiling the work so recently done. There should be some place in town less conspicuous where such matter can be put.

CONTAGEOUS DISEASE.

The town is to be congratulated on the comparitively small number of cases of contageous disease, only about

three-fifths of the number we had last year, which are as

COLLECTING OFFAL.

The contracts for collecting offal were given to the sama parties that have clone the work for several years. Read- ville district was included this year for the first time and with some few exceptions the work 'has been satisfactory.

SWINE.

Many complaints come from parties that live in the vicin- ity of those that keep swine, and few permits have- been granted, and those with the understanding that they would be revoked if complaint was made. It is the opinion of the Board that swine should not be kept in the thickly settled portions of the town.

REGULATIONS OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH OF THE TOWN OF HYDE PARK.

Public Statutes: Chapter 80, Section 18.— The Board of Health of a town shall make such regulations as it judges necessary for the public health and safety, respecting nuisances, sources of filth, and causes of sickness within its town. Whoever violates any such reg- ulation shall forfeit a sum not exceeding one hundred dollars.

In accordance with the foregoing provision of law, this Board makes the following regulations, which will be strictly enforced.

Regulation 1. Privy Vaults and Drains. Section 1. Every ten- ement shall be provided with a water-tight underground drain to carry off the waste waters, also with a suitable privy or water-closet sufficient for the accommodation of all those inhabiting the premises.

41

from the line of any adjoining lot or street, and at least twenty feet from any dwelling house, and shall be provided with a ventilation through the roof. The same shall not be used as cesspools nor receive drainage from the premises. Their contents shall not be allowed to leak out or otherwise become offensive. All privy vaults shall be of a size sufficient to satisfy the Board of Health.

Section IIL All waste water shall be conveyed through sufficient drains under ground to a cesspool sunk under ground, which shall be of sufficient size to contain at least eighty cubic feet, and when not water-tight must be at least twenty feet from the cellar wall of any tenement or dwelling, and at least five feet distant from any adjoin- ing lot or street. Cesspools shall be built in a thorough and substan- tial manner as shall be approved by the Board of Health.

Section IV.

Regulation 2. Section I. The Board, when satisfied upon due examination that a cellar, room, tenement or building in the town occupied as a dwelling place, has become by reason of the number of occupants, want of cleanliness or other cause, unfit for such pur- pose, and a cause of nuisance or sickness to the occupants or to the public, may issue a notice in writing to such occupants, requiring the premises to be put in proper condition; or if the Board see fit they may require the premises to be vacated, and the same shall not be again occupied without the written permission of the Board.

Section VI. Any person in the town of Hyde Park, who knows or suspects any domestic animal has contagious disease (such as glan- ders in horses or cholera in swine) must immediately report the same to the Board of Health. The penalty for neglect to do so is fine or imprisonment. The above is in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 252 of the Acts of 1887.

Regulation 7. Section I.

Regulation 8. Section I. No person, firm or corporation not now engaged in or working at the business of plumbing shall here- after engage in or work at said business in the town of Hyde Park,, either as a master or employing plumber or as a journeyman plum- ber, unless such person, firm or corporation first receives a license therefor, in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 477 of the Acts- of the year 1893 of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and Acts amendatory thereof, or supplementary thereto.

Section II. Any person desiring to engage in or work at the busi- ness of plumbing, either as a master or employiug plumber, or as a journeyman plumber, shall apply to the Board of Health and shall at such time and place as may be designated by the board of examiners appointed by the Board of Health, as provided for in said Acts to whom such application shall be referred, be examined as to his qual- ifications for such business. In the case of a firm or corporation the examination and licensing of any one member of the firm, or the manager of the corporation shall satisfy the requirements of this regulation.

Section III. The board of examiners shall examine said appli- cants as to their practical knowledge of plumbing, house drainage and plumbing ventilation, and if satisfied of the competency of the- applicant shall so certify to the Board of Health.

Said Board will thereupon issue a license to such applicant author-

44

izing him to engage in or work at the business of plumbing. The fee for a license for a master or employing plumber shall be two dollars, for a journeyman plumber it shall be fifty cents. Said licenses shall be issued annually, expiring on the thirty-first day of May next ensu- ing, and shall be conditioned on skillful work, and a strict obser- vance of the rules governing plumbing.

Section IV. No person shall carry on the business of plumbing unless he shall have first registered his name and place of business in the office of the Board of Health; and notice of any change in the place of business of a registered plumber shall be immediately given to said Board.

Section V. No person shall proceed to construct, add to, or alter any portion of the drainage system (except to repair leaks) of any building in the town of Hyde Park, until plans showing in detail the whole drainage system, shall have been filed at the office of the Board of Health, upon blanks in such form as the Board may deter- mine ; no person shall commence work on such drainage system unti the plans are accepted by the inspector of plumbing and a permit of approval granted. Plans and specifications shall be approved or re- jected within five days of the time of the filing.

Rules and regulations for material, construction, etc., may be found in town by-laws.

Fully believing that a large proportion of contagious diseases orig- inate from unsanitary conditions, we trust that we shall have the aid of all citizens and property owners in carrying out the above regula- tions, which are based on statute laws, and the sanitary rules of our large towns.

For burial permits apply to F. C. Graham, 10 Hyde Park avenue.

We have kept the expenses this year as close as possible. Some of the contracts were taken at less figures than for- merly, and owing to the fact that building and repairs have not been carried on quite as extensively as in former years, also not being able to start on the inspection of work as soon as was expected, we are able to report a good balance on hand, and feel sure that with the appropriation of another year the work can be carried on with that degree of success which will compare favorably with other towns. Eespectfully submitted,

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE PUBLIC

LIBRARY.

In submitting our annual report, your Trustees respect- fully call your attention once again to the pressing need in the near future of larger and better accommodations. It is .possible, by adopting, from time to time, as we are, tem- porary rearrangement of cases and books, to carry on the business of the library a very few years longer in our pres- ent quarters, but each year is rapidly exhausting our re- sources, and each move now detracts somewhat from the efficiceny of the library.

The town has each year voted all money received from dog licenses to the purchase of books, and will.no doubt continue this liberal policy. Your Trustees would recom- mend that in future any unexpended balance of this account each year in the hands of the Treasurer shall be transferred to the Library Fund, which at this time, as noted by the Treasurer's statement, amounts to 16,945.17.

If this policy is adopted, with the rapidly increasing in- terest added, within a very few years at longest, in connec- tion with a public demonstration that could easily be ar- oused, a suitable Public Library building can be obtained without any perceptible increase in the tax burden.

The past year has not been an exception to the steadily increasing popularity of the library, as is evidenced by the following facts :

The number of new cards issued was 426.

The total home circulation for the year ending Jan. 1, 1895, has been 34,369.

There were 2,084 magazines and 1,390 books taken out for use in the reading room, besides books of reference,

(46)

47

which are' in constant use, and can be obtained at any time without application to the librarian. To this department -valuable additions have been made the past year.

The number of volumes added to the library the past year is 550.

The followino- is a list of donations received :

United States Government Commonwealth of Massachusetts United States Government Commonwealth of Massachusetts Smithsonian Institute

9 volumes 25 volumes 63 pamphlets 2 pamphlets 1 pamphlet

REPORT OF THE OVERSEERS OF THE POOR.

The report of the year shows but little change. Not- withstanding the hard times, the number of persons receiv- ing out-door relief has decreased, as compared with last year. Some families have become self-supporting, and there are but few new names on the list of those regularly relieved. Nothing tends more to degrade and pauperize than too liberal giving, and it is important that an effort should be made to obtain an equivalent for all beyond the bare necessaries of life, and even these should be given only after careful investigation, and with constant over- sight. The insane now number eight, and there seems little prospect of any decrease in this list. The tramp nuisance shows an abatement of about twenty-five percent., which is doubtless due to the new police regulation requir- ing the detention of the wayfarers in the lockup until 11 o'clock in the morning. In this connection, the Overseers desire to enter their protest against the present condition of the quarters provided for lodgers. Accommodations for tramps should not be in connection with the lockup, for sanitary reasons alone ; and the Overseers heartily endorse the recommendations incorporated in the report of the Chief of Police, advising separate quarters for those who seek lodgings for the night.

Entering upon the duties of this office April 1, 1894, I found the following property, viz. : Seven police badges, 1 pair handcuffs, 1 pair twisters, 13 chairs, 2 lanterns, 1 criminal record book, 1 desk (in poor order), 2 lockup keys. There have been added during the year : One roll- top desk, 1 criminal record book (to replace one filled up), 1 short club- 3 long clubs and belts, 3 38-calibre revolvers, 3 badges, 12 lockup keys. Considerable property has been recovered during the year, and the total is enumerated below, viz. : Forty badges, 4 pairs handcuff's, 3 pairs twisters, 2 short clubs, 3 long clubs and belts, 22 lockup keys, 4 revolvers (1 useless), 2 desks, 2 criminal record books, 2 lanterns, 8 chairs. A record of all town police property in the hands of the regular and special officers is on file in this office.

Regular officers are equipped with winter and summer uniforms, and six special officers are equipped wTith summer uniforms.

The police headquarters have been thoroughly renovated and painted, and the office has been equipped with an

54

electrical signal showing when a telephone call has been: made during the absence of officers from the headquarters. When in use at night, a call upon the telephone displays a* red light upon Odd Fellows' Hall, which is visible from the Old Colony Railroad Bridge and from near the New Eng- land Railroad Crossing. Trouble at any point in town con- nected by telephone can in a very few minutes be com- municated to the night officers by this device. The citi- zens are invited to avail themselves of its usefulness.

The lockup has been put in as good order as consistent under existing conditions. The old wooden bunks in the cells have been torn out and burned, and the walls and floors freed from vermin. Iron bedsteads with new mat- tresses have been substituted. The room in front of the- cells has been used for many years as a lodging place for tramps, very much to the annoyance of the officers in the discharge of their duties. During the financial year ending' Jan. 31, 1894, 4,731 travellers were cared for. During the year ending Jan. 31, 1895, 3,411 were cared for, a decrease of 1,320. This large decrease is probably caused to a great extent by the adoption of a rule by which the tramps are kept in confinement until 11 A. M. each day.

I would recommend that the unused hose house on Thatcher street be moved to the engine house lot and fitted up as a lodging place for tramps, thus placing at the dis- posal of the Overseers of the Poor a suitable place, as pro- vided by law, and relieve the Police Department from a burden and a duty not belonging to it; and enable it to pro- vide a lockup free from stench or vermin, and a safe place for the custody of prisoners. Several attempts have been made by tramps during the past year to liberate prisoners confined in the cells, but fortunately without success. This recommendation can be carried out at a small expense, and will save a further outlay for several years.

During the past Summer and Fall three special officers

55

have been on duty Saturday nights and Sundays in the Clarendon Hill, Fairmount and Corriganville and Everett Square districts. There has also been a special officer in the Square every night until 10 : 30 P. M. Since Dec. 1, 1894, there have been two officers ou the Central District all night.

There has been a great many calls for officers during the year to protect private interests, for which the parties hav- ing them have paid the expenses.

The large number of complaints made to this department which have been investigated without arrest attests the great amount of work done unknown to the general public. Attention has been given to all complaints, and assistance rendered whenever possible.

The introduction of the electric railroad has very largely increased the duties of the officers, and it is but fair to presume that the travel over the roads during the coming months will prove the need of an increase in the police force. I would earnestly recommend that the permanent force be increased by two additional officers, one for day and one for night service.

In conclusion, permit me to extend to the Board of Selectmen my grateful appreciation for their uniform cour- tesy and cooperation, and also to the citizens generally for their generous support during the first year of my official efforts.

JAMES McKAY, Chief of Police and Keeper of Lockup.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ENGINEERS.

To the Board of Selectmen :

Gentlemen : ,We present herewith our report of this de- partment for the year ending Jan, 31st 1894.

The hose house at Readville has been enlarged, giving a room for the men to hold their meetings, and a stall where a member of the company keeps his horse nights, and in the daytime when not using it, by which arrangement the company is enabled to make much better time in getting out, than in the past.

800 feet of hose was bought in April last and was put in service. 1000 feet are needed this year to replace hose which have been in use for several years, and would not safely stand the hydrant pressure.

The tire alarm has been extended, by adding 10 boxes requiring 4 miles more line wire and an increased battery, at a cost of $900, giving 28 street boxes and 1 special box in Central Station from hich all numbers can be runs;.

The boxes are located so as to cover all parts of the town as well as can be done.

During the year there have been 26 alarms rung in and 3 still alarms, being nearly twice as many as last year.

The room occupied in the basement of the Central Station by the Police Department takes up more than half of the room which is needed by this department. There is not room enough to care for our hose properly, especially in winter when the hose is frozen and very hard to handle, as we found after the fire in the Damon schoolhouse, when we had nearly 3000 feet of wet and icy hose to care for. We earnestly hope this condition can be changed by taking the lockup out of the premises of the Fire Department

(56)

57

Last spring the Town authorized the Selectmen to con- tract for 16 additional hydrants. The Selectmen were un- able to come to any agreement with the Water Company, consequently the hydrants were not put in.

We have the same opinion as a year ago, that the hydrants are a necessity, for better protection against destructive fires, in certain localities, especially in that section between Milton and the Trotting Park, which is without a hydrant except on the corner of Central Park avenue and Milton street.

The cost of horses for hauling the apparatus to fires has been $603.50 for the year, double the amount for last year. The Board are of the opinion that horses should be placed in the Central Station, at least 2 pair. There would be no expense for harness as every piece of apparatus has swing- ing harnesses.

We have increased the membership of the department by adding 7 men, making the membership, 3 engineers , 44 men, Superintendent of fire alarm and Steward of the Central House, 48 in all.

CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS' REPORT.

The Cemetery Commissioners submit their third annual

report for the financial year ending Jan. 31, 1895. They

have received $9,267.98, as follows :

Sale of lots,

Single grave,

Interment and receiving tomb charges,

Foundation for monuments,

Sale of wood,

Balance from last year,

Total, Appropriation,

Expense, labor, etc.,

Paid Town Treasurer for lots and single

graves, Paid for land,

Balance on hand, $959 25

For detailed statement of .Receipts and Expenditures, see financial statement accompanying this report.

The past year the commissioners have completed the Receiving Tomb, and believe they have one which is ex- actly suited to the present and future needs of the town. They have built parts of Fairview drive, Aspen and Poplar avenues, as well as Magnolia, Laurel, Linden and Hyacinth paths, and graded a large plot for siugle graves. They have been instructed by the town to set apart a portion of the Cemetery for the use of the Catholic citizens, which they have done, and by the Spring they will have ready for use in this part of the Cemetery fifty lots, with avenues- and paths graded to these lots.

By the additional work done the past year on the avenues and paths in the older part of the Cemetery, they have been able to grade many lots, and they have sixty- five ready for s€te . The town voted to give them the right to buy interven- ing lots for cemetery purposes, and during the past year they have purchased land from George A. Rowe and others, Dennis Mahoney and Jennie Swan. The Commissioners think it would be for the best interests of the town to finish Aspen Avenue, on which the plot for single graves is situ- ated. When completed, it will join Fairview Drive. They also advise the continuance of Fairview Drive to Elm Avenue, so that it will connect with White Oak Avenue, thus making a drive through the Cemetery.

To make these improvements, together with the other necessary expenses, the Commissioners recommend an ap- propriation of $2,000 by the town.

Commissioners. Hyde Park, Feb. 1, 1895.

SECOND ANNUAL REPORT OF PARK COM- MISSIONERS.

For the same reasons as given last year, we recommend an appropriation of $2,000, for Park purposes.

In our first annual report we stated that the Metropolitan Park Commissioners had voted to take Stony Brook Reser- vation and that probably the exact lines would be defined before our report was in print. While this statement was upon the best authority, yet the Board, entering upon its duties this year were destined to meet the opposition of a strong, interested influence, against all the outlines at the time proposed by the Metropolitan Commission. All pre- vious plans had taken some part of Grew's Woods border- ing on West street, between the corner of Austin street and the Boston line.

The beautiful pine grove, north of Mr. Homan's house was included in one plan. We are informed that only a few years ago this grove was sold at a small price per acre. But we understand that it was represented to the Metropol- itan Commission that this land was all very valuable for house lots and would be very expensive. Of course, if this land is on the border of an improved Park, it does become valuable. In other words, if Stony Brook Reservation is cleared of underbrush, roads built and the public become better acquainted with the beauties of this locality, land just outside the park and opened up by park ways will be greatly enhanced in value.

Other towns discovering that it was not known how the cost would be assessed, that the assessment was just as lia- ble to be upon the valuation of all the towns and cities in

(63)

64

the Metropolitan district, as upon the benefit received by each municipality and also waking up to the importance of such a permanent improvement as a park, became sharp ri- vafj and urged the advantage to the public of taking certain land in their vicinity and in furtherance of their ideas in some cases offered to give money and land. Their argu- ments were good. When some urged the advantgage of taking beach land where so many of our people delight to go in summer, these arguments became dangerous to our in- terests. There was a time when a combination of owners interested to keep sufficient lands on the borders where it is supposed roads will be built, and of rivals wisely anxious to secure parks in their midst seemed likely to prove us to be false prophets, and to absolutely prevent our securing* any Metropolitan Park in our town. We discovered that eternal' vigilance is the price of a park as well as the price of liberty.

However, on June 25th we were informed officially that Stony Brook Reservation had been taken by the Metropol- itan Commission, and that we must assent to or reject their taking at once.

While we can recommend and advocate the selection of desirable locations, we have only the veto power when land is taken by the Metropolitan Commission. We cannot change lines nor accept a part, but must either accept or re- ject the whole.

Our chairman, Col. Bachelder, was away and the feeling of the other members ot the Board are expressed by the fol- lowing resolutions copied from our records.

Whereas we were this day (June 25,) at about two o'clock p. m., informed by the Secretary of the Metropoli- tan Park Commission that unless we assent to the taking of Stony Brook Reservation as outlined by it, and upon a plan never before seen by any member of our Board, so that such assent may be recorded at Dedham on the 27th inst., that the

65

taking by it in the town of Hyde Park would become void and of no effect, and that the money to be used therefor would be applied to the purchase of park land in another town and

Whereas it leaves us no time to appeal to the Metropolitan Board, to have a conference and suggest needed changes,. now therefore

Resolved, that we are of opinion that other land in our town ought to be added to Stony Brook Reservation and we protest against the method of giving us virtually one day only to consider this important question and no opportunity to consult with them, and that too after a radical change was made in the lines originally proposed by the Metropolitan Park Commission.

Resolved, that we assent under protest, rather than run the chance of losing the Metropolitan Park in our town.

Mr. Enneking was authorized to appear before the Met- ropolitan Commission to point out some of the mistakes made and urge needed changes.

Oct. 15th while Mr. Ennekino' was on his vacation an amended plan wras presented to the board which merely con- nected certain lines and made one or two of the changes suggested by us, and to this we also assented. The Metro- politan Reservation contains four hundred and seventy five acres, two hundred and eighty five acres of which are in Hyde Park.

Land has already been taken and at no distant day a park wTay will connect this Reservation with the Arnold Aboretum and one can then drive from Hyde Park to Boston Common, all the way in a park or on a park way. Before many years a park way will also connect this Reservation with Blue Hills. While we have not obtained everything we de- sired or hoped, yet we have secured substantially all that was requisite.

A connection, in Hyde Park, with West street is very de- sirable, and we were especially anxious to add the pine grove before referred to, as it would be directly on the

6Q

shore of the old Mill Pond, of which the Smith Ice Poud forms a part. Few realize what a beautiful lake, at small cost, may here be developed.

But on the whole we feel like congratulating the town upon securing this magnificent park with its grand possibili- ties of beauty and future developement.

By the wise action of our town in adopting at an early date the Park Act and electing a Board of Commissioners to look out for her interest, we are now in a position to congratu- late ourselves while neighboring towns which were less ac- tive begin to fear they have lost their opportunity.

The Metropolitan Commission has not yet determined any of the interior roads or paths in this Reservation, but there will be a road on the outside boundary from Washington street, in Boston to River street in Hyde Park, which will probably be constructed the coming year, but not in an ex- pensive manner. The woods will be cleared of dead limbs and debris, but no other changes or improvements are like- ly to be made in the immediate future.

The Park Commissioners of Dedham are anxious to se- cure a park way from their town to be connected with the park way to be built in Stony Brook Reservation and thus with Hyde Park. This necessitates the taking of more land, a part of which is in our town. We do not expect the Met- ropolitan Commission to take any more land in this vicinity out of their present appropriations, but if the abuttors on the proposed way are alive to their own financial interests they will offer to give the land for such a way, as it will make their remaining land more valuable. The plan is an excellent one and of mutual advantage to both towns, though doubtless of more importance to Dedham than to H}^de Park.

The advantages of a park way along Stony Brook con- necting Franklin Park with Hyde Park at West street near Austin were presented to our Board. Upon investigation

67

it appeared so desirable that we voted to request the Boston Park Commission to name a time and place for a conference to consider the question.

They replied that such a meeting at this time would be of little use, as owing to the lack of funds their Board could not now consider the matter.

This subject is of importance, not only loeally, but from the Metropolitan standpoint.

To transfer Stony Brook from private to public control and keep it from pollution would be wise, if not a necessary sanitary precaution.

By a succession of dams, beautiful ponds could be con- structed for skating and boating.

At the present time the land along the proposed route can be purchased at so reasonable a price, many abuttors being willing to give it outright, that it seems to us immediate ac- tion ought to be taken to secure that part of Stony Brook not now under control of the Metropolitan Commission, or of the city of Boston, but it is only by joint action that any thing can be accomplished.

On Dec. 22nd, we were pained to learn of the death of our Chairman, John B. Bachelder. The Board called a meeting and adopted the following resolutions :

Whereas, in God's appointed time and in the fullness of years, death has cut down our chairman and our friend John B. Bachelder, therefore

Resolved, that in his death our Committee lose a wise and enthsi- astic member, our town an upright, progressive citizen, who was ever ready to plan for its development and improvement, and our country a man of foresight and perseverance, grandly successful in his life work, the perpetuating by picture story and marble, historic memories of patriotism, valor and heroism at Gettysburg.

REFORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.

To the Citizens of Hyde Park :

Early in the history of this country, our ancestors found it necessary for the proper protection of the rights of per- sons and property, to use a good degree of intelligence in the management of their public concerns. So essential did they find the use of wisdom that the question of properly training their children for the duties which must in after years devolve upon them, came early and forcibly to their attention, and demanded their immediate action. It was a 'matter that could not be left for the next, or any succeed- ing generation.

This problem was solved by the establishment of public schools, wherein all children could be properly trained and fitted to intelligently assume the direction of public affairs at the proper time. For two hundred and fifty years this system with modifications made necessary by the increase of numbers, and the complication of demands upon individu- als by scientific and industrial development, has held its sway. The urgency for each generation to prepare its suc- cessor for intelligent control of affairs has never abated, but rather increased as the country has broadened and developed in civilization and resources ; and now it has fallen upon us to see that the next generation does not fall below that de- gree of intelligence required to maintain during its time a government by the people.

During the past year these matters have received the at- tention of this committee. In the performance of this duty laid upon us by your confidence, we have found that there are two elements which require constant care and the exer-

(145)

146

cise of a wise discretion ; and a mistake in either one is quick to touch the people who support by taxes the schools in our charge.

The first is the kind and quality of instruction to be given; and second, the fair ability of the community to meet the expense of school training. It is a matter of no small mo- ment, at the present time, to decide just how far the public schools are to be used in behalf of all demands that may be made upon the future men and women of the community. Each new development in science bringing new industrial pursuits is made the basis of a demand for an addition to the public school education. To make such addition calls for increased facilities, special instructors* and added expense. It w uld be easy to heavily increase the cost of the public schools if they are to be made to fully prepare the children for the business of life. There always exists a sentiment which would demand that each pupil should be substantial- ly fitted for active business when he graduates from our schools.

If this sentiment should control, then the public burden of taxation must be increased to meet such requirement. Buildings, instructors, tools and supplies must be furnished at public expense, and the child must be taxed mentally and physically, to acquire not only the rudiments of those sciences which tend to develop his reason and add to his in- telligence and general information, but the exact scientific knowledge and the method of application to specific subjects must be so mastered that immediately upon graduation the boy or girl may enter fully prepared upon his lifework. We have not as yet felt that the child should be taxed in his early years with so much exacting mental labor. We have not felt that the people at large desired to assume such ex- pense, and therefore have been content to give the children as good a drill as possible in those branches of study which years of experience have proved best for the mental growth

147

of the child ; and which gives him much general informa- tion of value, whatever may be his choice of occupation.

The public school has become so much a part of the sys- tem of the development of the children into responsible and thinking men, that many seem to give its work any thought except where it fails to touch some individual want or need of their own. The children at five years enter the public schools entirely untaught except to some extent about per- sonal care of themselves. As they grow in stature with- out physical effort, so they appear to the world to grow mentally until the end of their course ; meantime develop- ing their powers to reason, and storing their minds with use- ful facts of value.

This change from a mere child to a well informed man having been made under public care and expense, is it ask- ing too much of the graduated young man, or those imme- diately interested in his future, that they shall go on with his special training for his business life ?

Is there not a danger that we shall lean too heavily upon public assistance in these matters, and that our young men and women will fail to gain that degree of self-reliance necessary for the success of our people ?

It is certainly the duty of the public to bring all of the children to that degree of intelligence necessary for a right understanding of our institutions; and to develop, as far as possible those traits of character, requisite for their perpet- uation. Children should be taught to be law-abiding and useful members of the community in which they live. But it seems questionable whether the public should be expected to establish a system where it will be largely responsible for the selection of the business and the training therefor of each individual. It is because of the young man's own tact and efforts that he becomes a practical business man, and these qualities are best developed when exercised in the presence of actual business enterprise.

148

The time given for education in the schools under our charge seems very short in which to instruct the child gen- erally. In many instances the capacity of the children for mental work does not develop until near the age when they are expected to leave our schools. To insist upon special training must, therefore, be at the expense of the general, and also at a further risk of overtaxing the mental and im- pairing the physical powers of the children. There seems to be too much haste to crowd the boys and girls into active business, and thus rob them of their time to obtain proper mental strength, which comes only with age and good physical condition .

Whatever tends to overtax and strain the powers of the little ones in our schools works permanent injury to them from which they and the community must suffer hereafter. If special instruction in the arts, science or mechanics is- demanded at the public expense, then the time for public school education should be extended so as to embrace those years in which the child shall have acquired by age, powers of mind and body sufficient to enable him to reap full bene- fit from such public provisions.

Before this, however, the children must be developed into reasoning beings, with a good general knowledge which will enable them to become true citizens, irrespective of the character of their business pursuits. Our public schools must do this !

When we cease to have a great care as to the kind of citizens our schools tend to train, we shall be departing materially from the motives which impelled our fathers in founding them.

Last Spring the Committee prepared careful estimates as

to the reqmrments of the schools for the current year. At

the annu'al meeting the citizens voted the amounts asked,

and the following statement will give in brief the amounts

we have received and expended :

APPROPRIATIONS.

For salaries, janitors and fuel, $32,300 00

School incidentals, 3,200 00

Text-books and supplies, 2,750 00

Evening Schools, 600 00

Unexpended balances from last year :

Salaries, janitors and fuel,

School incidentals, $ 8 90

Text-books and supplies, 35 84

Industrial Schools, 53 06

Evening Schools, 264 34

High School and laboratory, 87 00

DISBURSEMENTS.

For salaries janitors and fuel, $32,349 22

School incidentals, 3,206 33

Text-books and supplies. 2,427 47

Evening Schools, 706 94

Industrial Schools, 137 11

High School laboratory, 12 00

153

Vouchers for all payments have been submitted to the auditors, and are now on file with our secretary.

It will be seen that we have been able to carry the schools through the year upon the appropriations made at the annual town meeting, and the bills of this department at the close of the financial year are substantially paid. The un- expended balances would more than pay them, if we had the power to transfer appropriations.

Not only do the old buildings require added expenditure each year, but new buildings for the accommodation of the pupils are demanded, and at once, unless we are to be con- tent with crowded rooms and poor instruction. That the exact situation may be seen at a glance, we here give the cumbers now enrolled in each grade of the primary and .grammar schools :

V class

VI class

VII class

Butler.

32

XII class

two rooms

163 396 398 467 32

This gives an actual enrollment at the present time of 1456 in the grammar and primary schools. These figures do not give the whole number of different scholars con- nected with the schools for the past year, but the number actually upon the rolls at this time. In April, it is safe to say, from 10 to 25 new pupils must be provided for in the twelve classes of each of the large schools. When these are added to the numbers already enrolled in these classes,

154

it is easy to see that more rooms will be an absolute- necessity.

BUILDINGS.

The large school buildings owned by the town are nearly all of wooden construction, and with one exception have been now in use nearly twenty-five years ; consequently, the annual cost for repairs is likely to increase. In a previous report the condition of the roof of the Damon building, and the necessity for reslating, wras called to your notice. The work has been so far avoided by repairs, but at any time the roof may become a source of a large expenditure. At the Grew the local committee reports that a special ap- propriation of $1,000 should be made to thoroughly repair the building. New gutters are needed upon large portions of the roof; new stairs and new floors in several places ; new furniture for one or more rooms. The local com- mittees do not report the need of extra appropriations for repairs at the High and Fairmount buildings the coming year.

Since this report was adopted the Damon School Building has been damaged to an extent that renders it useless for the school until after action can be had in Town Meeting as to repairing the same. Meantime, the committee have made temporary arrangements for the pupils.

The sacrifice of the halls at the Greenwood and Fairmount Schools would give two or three more rooms, and would tide over for another year ; but it must be borne in mind that in those buildings one class is already upon the third' floor, and to add another class will make it absolutely neces- sary to provide fire escapes, which we are advised must be covered stairways outside of the buildings, and will cost quite considerable sums of money, and detract from the appear- ance of the building. Another evil of such a course is that it will subject many pupils to the danger ot physical injury

155

resulting from going up and down two long flights of stairs several times each day, a practice always accompanied with hazard to children, especially girls, of this school age.

Small buildings in each of the crowded districts for one or more primary rooms, or a central primary building that can be used for the overflow of each school, would afford other means of relief. It would seem very, hard to deprive the large schools of their halls, in which they can assemble for exhibitions and general exercises, and such a course would not be in the best interest of the schools, and is not recommended by this committee. The benefits of these halls have been realized by all connected with our school work, and have been provided and maintained in the past notwithstanding the burden of debt upon the town. We are now substantially free from debt. Shall we deprive our sehool children henceforth of these advantages? We trust our citizens will not want to economise in this manner.

A central building will afford better opportunity for full classes, as the overflow from each building can be easily transferred to and massed at the centre of the town. It would seem that one lot, and one building to be warmed and cared for, so situated that it would relieve each of the now overcrowded grades, would be in the interest of economy and afford opportunity for maximum classes, which always tends to reduce the cost of instruction. This mat- ter will be placed before the town at the annual meetiug, with a recommendation that a competent committee of citi- zens investigate the whole subject, and report some plan for immediate relief.

In this connection, the local committee, of the Greenwood district reports that outside accommodations must be fur- nished in April. The past year has been one of expedient* in that district. In September a division of the twelfth class was necessary, and the sixth class was temporarily placed in the hall. Efforts were made to secure a room'

156

'Outside as cold weather approached, but nothing could be found that seemed less objectionable than the use of the hall, and so we were forced to locate this class on the third floor until the beginning1 of the winter term. At that time, by reason of a change of employes in one of the factories in that district, the numbers were reduced in the- Butler School so that a consolidation of three classes into two was possible, and the sixth class was removed to its former room. The twelfth class at the Greenwood is now over- crowded, and fails of its best work. When the usual April increase comes, some expedient must be found for the overflow.

The people of this district have complained, and justly so, that their children were inconvenienced, but when the situation has been explained they have borne the matter cheerfully, believing efforts would at once be made for more school accommodations.

The High School opened with 215 scholars, but the num- ber has fallen to 205, with classification as follows :

Senior class - - \ - - - - 27

Second " 47

Third " ------ 49

Fourth " ------ 82

This number of pupils fills the building. It has been found necessary during the past year, in view of the large fourth class, to take down partitions in order to afford class- rooms of sufficient size. The building is poorly arranged for the work of the school. We have now reached the time when a new modern building for our High School has been publicly recommended. Shall we have it? If so, the old building will serve for a central primary school, and solve the problem of more accommodation for these grades.

TEACHERS.

The teaching force of the town remains substantially the

157

same as at the time of our last report. A few changes have occured.

At the Damon School, Mr. W. F. Sayward resigned the position he had held for several years as master, to accept a more lucrative situation elsewhere. Mr. Sayward had been very successful in his work at the school, and he had the confidence of the people of that district. His resigna- tion was a loss to the school. Mr. Arthur W. Armstrong was employed as his successor, and gives evidence of being a successful teacher. During the summer Miss Dora M. "Wiggin resigned, and at the opening of the school in Sep- tember, Miss Donovan was sriven the class of Miss Wio-o-in, and Miss Florence E. Barker, of this town, was employed in the grade formerly instructed by Miss Donovan. In De- cember, the numbers at the school having largely increased,. a new room was opened and a separation of grades arranged. Miss Grace M. Tuxbury was employed in the positson thus created.

At the Fairmount School, Miss Florence A. Dunbar, teacher of the ninth grade, accepted a position elsewhere, and Miss M. Edith Le Bourveau, a graduate of Hyde Park's High School with supplemental training, was appointed to this vacancy.

Miss Annie B. Davis, master's assistant at the Greenwood School resigned at the end of December ; this was unfortu- nate as Miss Davis was a very strong teacher and her loss in the middle of the year must result in loss to the class. Miss Cora J. Buker, a normal graduate, with several years of experience has been appointed to the vacancy. In Sep- tember it was found necessary to employ an additional teacher, for a division of the XII grade at this school. Miss Ella J. Brown a normal graduate, was selected by the local committee for this position.

At the Grew School, Miss Mary Winslow. for a long time one of its most successful instructors, and for several years

158

past holding the position of master's assistant, asked in September for a leave of absence during the year on account of ill health. In deference to her faithful service and her great ability as a teacher, her request was granted. The local committee was authorized to select a teacher in her place for the year. Miss Eda M. Perry was selected and held the position during the Fall term, at the end of which she resigned, and Miss Nellie J. Wentworth has been em- ployed and now fills the position with promise of success.

The suggestions of the Committee of the High School contained in their last report as to teaching of stenography by a teacher having other classes has been adopted, and Mr. Arthur W. Lowe now gives instruction in this branch of the course, and also has charge of other classes of the school.

Miss Gidney, teacher of the Butler School, has been given a leave of absence during the Winter term because of ill health. Miss Brown of the Greenwood School was trans- ferred with a portion of her class, when the consolidation of classes was made as above stated. A substitute for Miss Gidney was thus made unnecessary.

In connection with this subject it may be well said that the demand for trained teachers increases each year, and it is not now an easy matter to procure at the prices we can pay, teachers of known ability. The selection of teachers is the most responsible duty that rests upon a school commit- tee, as to a great degree the success or failure of the school will depend upon a right choice. The State Board of Edu- cation has come to recognize the difficulties that beset the ordinary committeeman in the performance of this impor- tant duty, and has succeeded in obtaining legislation which authorizes that board to issue certificates to such persons as it deems qualified to teach in our public schools. This will aid committees very materially to obtain satisfactory teachers, and seems to be a step in the right direction.

159

Great pains should be taken to adopt a practical system so that committees may readily receive the benefits possible from the State certification of teachers.

Much credit is due to our corps of instructors the past year. We believe they have been faithful in the discharge of their duties and merit the approbation of the patrons of the schools as well as of the committee. We believe that great good would come to our schools if the parents and cit- izens generally would take an active interest in the work of the teachers, and give them an occasional word of sympathy and encouragement. It is often the case that all words are reserved for criticism. If your child does well in school take a little pains to let his teacher know of your approba- tion. It will help that teacher very much.

COURSE OF STUDY.

This remains substantially the same as last year with a change of text-books in English Grammar, Miss Hyde's Advanced Lessons, having been substituted for Harvey's. A brief course in arithmetic has been adopted for the lower grammar grades. Instruction in physical culture for the young ladies at the High School, has been added to the work at that School, and Miss Dean of the Emerson School of Oratory, has been employed as instructor. Miss Dean is a Hyde Park lady and enters upon her duties with an enthusiasm which betokens success.

REFERENCE BOOKS.

Last Spring the town voted upon our recommendation the sum of $250 to be used in purchasing reference books, for the various schools. The several local committees after conference with the teachers have made selections of proper books and the same have been placed in the libraries of each school. Further sums should from time to time be expen- ded under this head. At the Damon School a large num-

160

ber of valuable books were donated by a person who has- previously contributed to this school in similar manner. By request Ave do not give the name but wish to place upon record our appreciation of this person's act.

Among the valuable additions to our supplemental list we must not fail to mention the Beacon Lights of Patriotism, a new reader by our distinguished townsman, Gen. Henry B. Carrington. This reader is full of matter of great value to the children of our public schools, and should be freely used in all of the classes of the Grammar grades as well as in the High School.

MUSIC.

Miss Dodge has been continued in charge of the instruc- tion in this branch of the course, and her work has been fully up to its previous standard, and has been satisfactory to the committee.

ATTENDANCE.

While many of our neighboring towns have been closing schools because of epidemic disease, Hyde Park has been so far spared these serious conditions. It is one of our first duties to see that the health of the children shall be well protected by clean and wholesome surroundings. Disinfec- tants are freely used upon books and in the school rooms as- well as in the outbuildings. This care of the health of the scholars tends to make a good average attendance, and keep the schools free from contagious disease. The buildings are all well warmed by steam, except at the Damon and Butler, and little complaint is now heard of cold rooms at any school building.

JANITORS.

The excellent janitor for the past eight years at the Greenwood School, Albert Lord, resigned on the 2d of December. The local committee regretted very much

161

that Mr. Lord felt obliged to leave the position, as he has, for many years so faithfully performed all of his duties- and always with great regard for the interests of the town. in the care of its property. Mr. John Haigh has been employed and now fills the position in an acceptable man- ner.

At the Damon School, Mr. Kappler feeling that he should receive more salary tendered his resignation, much to the regret of the committee in charge. Mr. Wheeler, a reliable man, offered to assume work at the established price, and he was given the position. Janitors elsewhere remain as last year.

TRUANT OFFICER.

For a number of years Mr. Andrew D. Rooney has faithfully performed the duties of truant officer. As re- ported last year, the committee changed the method of compensation, and fixed the duties of the officer. In May last, Mr. Rooney tendered his resignation. In view of his efficient services and knowledge of his duties, this was a misfortune- In September, Mr. Henry V. Har- wood was employed as truant officer in chief, and has thus far conducted his duties with discretion. Mr. Harwood bids fair to make a very efficient officer.

SCHOOL MANUAL.

We have often been asked for a manual showing our rules, the names, residences, and salaries of our teachers. During the year a sub-committee prepared a small book containing these matters and other useful information, and by order of the committee several hundred were printed. Any citizen desiring a copy will find it at the rooms of the committee.

102

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.

The School for Carpentry was opened as usual during the summer. Mr. Webb who has for a long number of years had charge of the school, was again employed as instructor. The school was well attended, and the work was carried on with much interest and success.

In the judgment of the committee in charge, more boys would avail themselves of the benefits of such iustruction if accommodations and facilities were furnished.

EVENING SCHOOLS.

We submit herewith the report of the work of these schools, as made to the sub-comrnittee in charge by the principal instructors. Believing these statements full and reliable, and of interest to our citizens, we print them in full. These schools, aside from the mechanical drawing, do not have the attendance they ought to have. This fact has often been called to your notice. We try to make the schools efficient by employing good instructors and provid- ing good accommodations. A few pupils have interest enough to attend regularly, and ot course get the benefit of your generous provision. More should do so.

To the Committee on Evening Schools of the Town of Hyde Park:

This year the work of the evening school has followed the same general plan as is outlined in the report of last year. In addition, however, a class in stenography and typewriting has been conducted by Mr. A. W. Lowe. I am informed that the work in this branch has been very encouraging.

This year the school opened Monday, Nov. 5, 1894. The first term of seven weeks closed the latter part of December. The second term began Jan. 7, 1895, of which we have just finished the fourth week. The total number of names on the register for the first term is 74. The average attend-

163

.ance is 40 pupils. The second term there are 40 names, and an average attendance of 16. The average age is 19 years. Forty per cent, of the pupils are women. This last is a marked increase over last year.

This year a very large number came to learn the rudi- ments of our language. Many were foreigners. Five dif- ferent nationalities were represented. The earnestness and perseverance with which these people worked was most gratifying to every teacher. Arithmatic also seemed to be a favorite study. The class in book-keeping has worked well and accomplished much.

In comparing this year's work with that of last year, there seems to be improvement. For, although the number of pupils has been slightly less, the work accomplished by the majority of those attending has been of a far more substantial and lasting character.

Respectfully submitted.

WALTER E. PIPER, Principal.

February 31, 1895.

To the Committee on Evening Schools of the Town of Hyde Park:

Hoping this may convey an idea of the work done in the Evening Drawing School in the past year, I submit the fol- lowing report :

From the time of writing the last report, Feb. 14, 1894, to April 1, the work assumed a very marked advancement, as was shown by the exhibition held at that time, which exhibit, I am loth to say, was visited by only too few of the citizens who should be interested in this work.

The twelfth term opened under the most pleasing circum- stances. The Everett building in the High School yard is equipped with benches for the industrial school, and these are also used as tables. The instalment of the sixteen electric lights made the lighting perfect.

164

On Nov. 5 twenty young men were enrolled, and this- number increased so that sixty-two names were on the roll,, divided into three classes, elementary advanced, mechanical and architectural; the architectural advanced meeting with the others until Jan. 18, when it was thought best to give them a separate evening.

Monday evening, at 7:30, the elementary meets, being the- largest of the three, and a more interested class it would be hard to find. Wednesday evenings, at the same hour, the class in architectural work meets. Thursday evening the advanced mechanical class, which is devoted to the construc- tion of machinery, meets. At the beginning of the term an engine was loaned us by the Boston Blower Company, to be used as a model, but unfortunately this could be used but as short time, as it had to be returned.

The lack of interest shown by citizens last year dis- courages effort to get out drawings for our exhibition this year, but if it is thought best we will try and enthuse the pupils to make another exhibition.

The work being done by all the classes seems to be of a very satisfactory nature, and the interest is very marked _ When we see the positions held by a good number of the young men from this branch of our school, as mechanical and architectural draughtsmen, and others who have even taken higher positions, we can but feel that the appropria- tions made for this purpose have been well spent.

Respectfully submitted.

E. C. TOURTELLOTTE, Instructor.

WASHINGTON S BIRTHDAY.

This is not the first time we have had occasion to ex- press our appreciation of the efforts of the Grand Army Post in this town, to properly impress upon the children a love of country and the duty of patriotic devotion to its in- stitutions.

165

We were pleased to be present in Waverly Hall and •witness the excellent programme provided for the proper ■celebration of the birthday of the immortal Washington, under the auspices of Timothy Ingraham Post. By invita- tion many of the school children of the town were present .and heard patriotic music and addresses fitting for that day. It is very gratifying to school authorities to have public occasions of such a nature, as they strongly show the chil- dren the love a free people have for their institutions, and express the gratitude we owe to those who have secured them for us by the sacrifice of life and property.

The children of Hyde Park should especially take pride in this anniversary, as Washington in his efforts to drive the British oppressor from Boston in 1776, secured from our territory part of the material used in the fortification of Dorchester Heights.

One danger of the present time results from the fact that large numbers of people come to our country who under- stand nothing of our institutions, and many of them do not even become citizens. From such we cannot expect a great regard for our system of government.

Where we can teach our children in such matters it calls for greater care, that somewhere among our citizens may be found an "old guard" of rightly trained and patriotic men and women to stand on all occasions for our constitu- tion and flag.

GENERAL REMARKS.

The work of the schools has been carried forward on lines similar to those of preceeding years. We realize that it is dangerous to experiment with all new theories and methods that are brought forward by different educators of the day. The time of the children is of great importance, and great care must be taken that none of it be wasted in ..he school course.

166

r

We believe that under good instructors with comfortable and cleanly surroundings, our present course is capable of developing well trained and educated men and women.

Fellow citizens, we should fail in our duty should we not impress it upon you to guard these schools carefully, and make every effort possible to secure for them all the advantages of a generous support. Let no indifference to them or the cause of education gain a foothold in our town. Such a course will not only injure our good name abroad, but will be of irreparable loss to us and our children at home.

We do not recommend extravagant expenditures, but a broad generous policy which shall ensure to our pub- lic schools all that is necessary to give our youth the great advantage of good opportunities for early education.

In this department it requires constant effort that our standard be kept steadily advancing. Should you become careless or indifferent to the importance of their work, it would be very easy for our schools to deteriorate and our children suffer in consequence.

In submitting this report we do so with the thanks of this committee to our citizens, for their many acts of kind- ness and forbearance toward us as we have tried througfh- out the past year to superintend the work of educating the children of our town. ,

Respectfully submitted,

CHARLES G. CHICK, Chairman. Hyde Park, Feb. 4, 1895.
