MAYOR FRENCH'S FIFTH INAUGURAL
ADDRESS.
January 22, 1918.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
In reassuming the duties of mayor, I desire to express my
deep appreciation of the honor conferred upon me by my
selection, for a fifth term, as chief magistrate.
During my past administrations, economy in the expendi-
ture of the taxpayers' money has always been my watch-
word, recognizing the fact that they should be relieved as
much as possible from the burdens necessarily placed upon
them. It is well not to forget that we are the city's serv-
ants; that indifferent attention to the business affairs of
the city will produce only indifferent results; that the city
demands a thorough business administration economically
managed as a good business man manages his ow^n private
business affairs, being as careful as if we were working
for ourselves and spending our own money instead of the
money of others. By keeping these sentiments in mind and
remembering that we do not represent any political parties
in the transaction of our city affairs, I feel, as I have said
before, that T have been fair and impartial to all in my
conduct of city affairs. Striving always to do that which
is for the best interests of all, I have been independent, all
will admit, and I think that we all should retain all of our
independence especially at this time. The fact that my
recommendations have not generally been adopted and that
I have been returned for the fifth time by the people, for
which I thank them, bears me out when I say to you that
the people of this city approved of the principles for which
4 CITY OP CONCORD.
I have stood and still desire my recommendations carried
into effect.
With war prices staring us in the face, labor of all kinds
demands higher wages. I shall not promise you a loAver
tax rate, but I will endeavor, if possible, not to have it any
higher than the present rate. In supervising the expendi-
tures of the people's money for municipal purposes, I
would urge that we all gain as much personal knowledge
as possible of the actual conditions and needs of the city.
This course properly followed, I think, will be of great
advantage to the taxpayers. I shall now take up the vari-
ous departments of the city, making such recommendations
as I think necessary.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
No city the size of Concord has a better fire department.
The personnel of this department cannot be easily im-
proved ; from the chief down the men are steady, honest
and faithful in the discharge of their duties. In this de-
partment I think the city gets the worth of its money.
Horse-drawn tire apparatus has become almost a thing of
the past. Our fire department has been motorized in the
past few years to a larger extent than any other city of its
size in New England. Recognizing this fact, I shall recom-
mend that steps be taken to have the insurance companies
doing business in our city give to the people a lower rate,
instead of asking for more efficiency in this department
when there is no occasion for an act of this kind. I am
not in favor of the purchase of any more motor-driven fire
apparatus at this time.
POLICE DEPARTMENT.
An efficient police department is necessary in every city
for the safety of individuals and for the protection of
property. Experienced men are much more effective as
MAYOR S ADDRESS. 5
police officers than new ones can be. The salaries of all the
regular police officers are approximately one thousand dol-
lars each per year and for this amount I think the city is
entitled to the service of able-bodied men and to their en-
tire attention to the duties of the work. I recommend that
they be granted one day off in every fifteen.
LIGHTING STREETS.
Well lighted streets are a necessity for the safety and
convenience of the public and I am pleased that I can say
that our streets are as well lighted as any city of its size in
New England without any additional expense to the tax-
payers. The public service charge placed upon all gas
meters owned by the Concord Light & Power Company is
not accepted by those that use gas very cheerfully. This
matter is now in the hands of the Public Service Commis-
sion for further consideration. This is due to a protest
by a petition sent them by the Central Labor Union oppos-
ing the twenty-five cent charge. I think the rate on gas
in Concord, N. H., is excessive. Why should the consumer
be obliged to pay $1.25 per thousand feet for it? Just
consider this proposition for a moment. Second only to a
water i^lant, a gas plant is the greatest necessity in the line
of public utilities. Many cities in this country and abroad
own their gas plant, and the cost to the consumer has been
cut in half. As I have said before, it would not be so diffi-
cult a matter for the city of Concord to build a gas plant,
or perhaps the present plant here situated might be taken
over at a fair physical valuation, all consideration of the
value of the franchise, which of course is the property of
the city in the first instance, being eliminated. This mat-
ter I think is worthy of your consideration.
PARKS.
Our parks are in excellent condition. For this our
superintendent is deserving of much credit. Our public
b CITY OF CONCORD.
playgrounds are in very good condition, and I recommend
a sufficient sum of money be appropriated to make them
up-to-date playgrounds.
SCHOOLS.
Too much good cannot be said in regard to our public
schools. The education of the youth of the city is one of
most importance of city administration. Much criticism
has been expressed against the Board of Education in the
method they have pursued in transporting scholars from
the outlying districts on the ground that they will carry
scholars to all grades except the High School. This mat-
ter should be considered and acted upon at the next meet-
ing of Union School District.
HOSPITALS.
It has been customary for years to make an annual appro-
priation of $3,000 for the Margaret Pillsbury General Hos-
pital. Since 1909 this hospital has had a restriction placed
upon it which was a direct financial saving to the taxpayers
of tliis municipality. During the past administration this
restriction was removed to such an extent that the taxpay-
ers suffered a financial loss. I recommend that this appro-
priation continue with the same restriction that was upon
it from 1909 to 1916. I also recommend that $1,000 be
appropriated to aid the Memorial Hospital on South Street.
Both of these hospitals are doing excellent work among our
worthy poor and deserve all the financial aid that the city
can afford them.
PUBLIC COMFORT STATION.
On several occasions my attention has been called to the
fact that a public comfort station for men, women and chil-
dren is greatly needed. Almost every city in the land
maintains a station of this kind. I recommend for your
approval the erection of a public comfort station. I think
MAYOR S ADDRESS. 7
this would be a direct benefit to all and is worthy of your
consideration. Five thousand dollars was appropriated
for this purpose in my former administration, but the
money as yet has not been expended. Where did this
money go?
HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
We all recognize the importance of this branch of the
city government and its efficient management. Our city
ranks second in health and cleanliness among the cities of
the United States. I especially commend this department
for its efforts to see that the inhabitants of the city are
furnished with milk produced under sanitary conditions.
I am glad to say that all plumbing is examined by and
taken charge of by our sanitary officer.
LABOR.
The laborers of our city are all worthy of our considera-
tion, and T think that they should be granted the same priv-
ileges as our salaried officers.
soldiers' relief.
Those who have gone to war to fight for the establish-
ment of universal peace throughout the land and left de-
pendents to be cared for deserve the most generous treat-
ment, and I trust all that is possible in this direction vsdll
be freely done, and I trust that when a case of this nature
presents itself to our overseers of the poor, it will receive
prompt attention.
As a people we are fond of speaking of the morale of our
soldiers at home and abroad, and of doing so with a feeling
of pride, and well w^e may. Every account, official and
private, that comes from across the sea, where our regulars
and many of our former National Guard are now close to
the theatre of war, is to the same effect, that the boys who
wear the uniform of Uncle Sam are in fine condition of
8 CITY OF CONCORD.
cheerfulness, and even thankfulness, that they are to be
permitted to fight for the allied countries of democrac}^
against the allied countries of autocracy. Here in the
United States the same remarkable spirit is rej^orted in
every camp and cantonment from ocean to ocean. The
men are full of enthusiasm, ready to train and train hard
to become good soldiers and are inspired by a confidence
that when their turn comes at the battle fronts they will
give as good an account of themselves as American soldiers
have lieen in the habit of giving. It is wonderful to con-
template such a feeling on the part of men who but a few-
months ago were all engaged in civilian pursuits and were
taken aAvay from their usual lives whether they wished it
or not. But the facts are as we say. The morale of our
national army men is splendid.
Is that all that is necessary for our effective part in a
successful war? By no means. We, the people at home,
the millions upon millions of men and women who cannot
take a soldier's part in tlie war, must see to it that our own
morale matches that of our defenders. For certainly there
is a morale in every-day life as truly as among armies.
Morale, according to one of the most ponderous of dic-
tionaries, is the "moral or mental condition as regards
courage, zeal, hope, confidence and the like, especially of a
body of men engaged in a hazardous enterprise, as soldiers
and sailors in time of w^ar." But the application should
not and '^annot end there. We are all "engaged in a haz-
ardous enterprise." We nmst look to our courage, zeal,
hope and confidence.
We are just nmv passing through some experien(e>,s that
may well try our cheerfulness. But they will be overcome
without serious disasters, let us hope. We have food
enough, save sugar, and that famine will soon be broken.
We are short of coal in a way that should never have been
permitted, with no scarcity of the commodity at the mines.
Unhappily there is suffering from this lack, but a few days
should bring relief. Nature has been bitter and man's ef-
MAYOR S ADDRESS. 9
ficieney has failed to give satisfactory results; the combina-
tion has been severe, indeed. But all the hardships have
been as nothing compared to those of the troops in the
trenches. Let us remember that, and take courage to press
with vigor on.
In a French cartoon two soldiers are talking together.
One says: "If they hold out." The other asks: "If who
hold out ? ' ' The first replies : ' ' The civilians. ' ' And there
is infinite acumen in that reply, for, after all, it is usually
peoples who are defeated rather than armies. Let us all
do our share in upholding the morale of the American
people. There lies victory.
POOR DEPARTMENT.
Our worthy poor are deserving of a great deal of our
consideration. It costs the city approximately $20,000 per
year to maintain this department. I think a big saving
can be made in this department to the taxpayers. I recom-
mend at this time for your consideration the need of a pur-
chasing agent to purchase all goods for the several depart-
ments within the limits of their appropriations. I also
recommend that the City Hall basement be made a general
store for the worthy poor and that a consignment of goods
be placed therein known as the necessities of life and that
our messenger and janitor distribute the same upon an
order from the overseer of the poor ; applicant to be their
own carrier, therefore giving to applicants their goods with-
out profit to am^one. I think this would be a saving to the
taxpayer, also to the worthy poor, and is worthy of your
consideration.
HIGHV^AY DEPARTMENT.
In regard to the subject . of highways generally, I am
sorry to say that the present condition of our streets is not
as good as they should be with the large amount of money
spent upon them. Too much money has been spent on per-
10 CITY OP CONCORD,
manent work and general maintenance has been neglected.
This should not be so. The present tendency elsewhere is
away from this course, and it is only by such action that
we can save enormous expenditures in the future. I sug-
gest for your consideration the advisability of concentrat-
ing the highway and engineering department officers in
one department. Have a civil engineer for superintendent
of streets. By such action you will center responsibility,
avoid conflict as to grades, save money and improve streets.
CONTRACTS.
I recommend that all work that is to be let out by con-
tract be let to the lowest responsible bidder, and that resi-
dents of Concord be given a preference, all other things
being equal. 1 also recommend that all bids or contracts
be opened in the presence of the mayor. I consider this a
fair proposition.
CONCLUSION.
We are a corporation with a A-aluation of over
$19,000,000. "We have been elected as a board of direct-
ors to transact the business of this corporation and to
give to the taxpayers the best returns for their money
invested and that is the money raised by taxation. It is
not my purpose, as I have stated above, to engage at this
time in a lengthy discussion of every topic connected with
your duties, but rather to impress upon your minds the
necessity of giving to every subject which may be pre-
sented that careful consideration and determination
which will result in the greatest benefit to our munici-
pality.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF
EDUCATION.
The past year has been one of unusual activity and
anxiety in our schools, as elsewhere. The fuel shortage
during this winter has compelled the closing for greater
or less periods of public schools generally throughout New
England, but in Concord we have so far maintained our
usual schedule without interruption. Whatever criticism
there may have been of the decision of the Board of Edu-
cation to keep the schools open during the most acute
stages of the coal shortage is fully answered by the fact
that we are approaching spring with the certainty that we
can now complete our full school year, and that no one in
Concord has suffered for the lack of coal which could have
been supplied by temporarily closing the schools. This
result is certainly a cause for profound gratification for
all of us.
The standing rule forbidding the solicitation of money
in the schools has been so far abrogated as to permit the
receipt of contributions for refugees from pillaged coun-
tries and the sale of thrift stamps. We have felt that in
this most critical period in modern history our children
should be given the opportunity to do their part, an oppor-
tunity which they have embraced with most gratifying
enthusiasm. The work of the Junior Red Cross has also
been inaugurated in our schools, with such a modification
of its terms as removes all unpleasant and undemocratic
distinctions based on i^ecuniary considerations. In all these
unwonted activities the teaching force have been of the
greatest possible assistance, as they have also been in the
difficult work of classifying the registrants under the se-
lective draft act. Every additional burden has been
cheerfully assumed by them and discharged with excep-
tional zeal and efficiency.
The manual training school has been utilized to a large
extent in training men liable to call for service in various
74 ' CITY OP CONCORD.
branches of the mechanical arts, and in telegraphy. The
principal of that school has been called upon to serve the
nation in training instructors for workers in the shipyards,
and has been given a leave of absence so long as his services
are required for that purpose.
The schools are not exempt from the effects of the gen-
eral increase in prices. Salaries have necessarily been con-
siderably increased. The cost of coal is of course abnor-
mal, and in order to maintain a sufficient fuel supply it has
been necessary to purchase considerable quantities of
wood. All this of course will demand increased appro-
priations for the coming years. But the situation is unfor-
tunately rendered more difficult by an act passed at the
last session of the legislature changing the fiscal school
year so that hereafter it terminates on the thirty-first of
August, and requiring that appropriations made at the
spring district meeting shall cover the period to the first
of September in the next succeeding year. It is accord-
ingly incumbent upon us at the approaching district meet-
ing to make appropriations for the period from April 1,
1918, to September 1, 1919, which will necessarily amount
to about $40,000 more than the appropriations for a normal
school year. The change in the fiscal year is undoubtedly
a change for tlie better, but its inauguration at this time
lays upon our taxpayers a burden greatly to be deplored,
but from which, by the mandatory terms of the law, there
is no escape.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF
SCHOOLS.
To the Board of Education of Union School District:
I have the honor to present for your consideration my
thirty-third annual report upon the condition of the
schools of the district with recommendations which I be-
lieve to be of service in keeping pace with modern progress.
The item of school expense is the largest in the public
budget. In making up this item care has always been
taken to keep within the limits of actual needs determined
by rational expansion and progress. Public funds are gen-
erally looked upon as something to which the rules of
personal care need not apply, but i:i the expenditure of the
public school money of this district the reverse has always
been in force. However, we ought to bear in mind that a
constant increase in the cost per capita should always have
back of it a corresponding increase of educational oppor-
tunity. It is by no means advisable that a city of the size
of Concord should be carrying on any department of school
work to an extent which may be justified only in cities
much larger and wealthier. With a decreasing enrollment
of pupils we cannot reasonably defend a cost per cajyita
brought about by anything except necessary provisions.
The fuel shortage of the past winter was met by the pur-
chase of an additional supply of wood. By such means we
were enabled to keep the schools in session the entire time.
This, with the increased cost of all kinds of supplies and
the raise of salaries, has been a severe drain upon the
school revenue.
I believe the school administration to be foresighted and
resourceful enough to meet all conditions that may arise
during the war period. No doubt variations from regular
80 CITY OF CONCORD.
routine work will occur and conveniences that existed be-
fore may have to be denied now, but these lessons of denial,
economy and patriotism which this war is bringing to the
youth of our city are those that have long been needed to
create a proper moral, patriotic fiber.
Attendance.
The number of children reported in attendance for the
year ending June 16, 1917, showed a decrease over that of
the year before. This indicates a loss of population in
Concord. Questionable absences are carefully looked after
by Mr. Taylor, the attendance officer, and by Miss Murphy,
the school nurse, few being allowed to escape. The num-
ber of labor certificates issued since the last annual report
has been unusually large. This may be accounted for by
a shortage of men for labor during the present war, which
has caused bo3^s to leave school to go to work. Attend-
ance in the rural schools is uneven on account of the long
distances to be traveled and of transportation hindered by
extreme weather conditions. The Mountain School and
the Riverhill School were closed two and three days, respec-
tively, on account of the drifting storm in January. The
Eastman School and the rural schools were compelled to
close 1)y the storm of March 10. One room was closed in
the Penacook building at the beginning of the second
semester, there being only enough pupils of these grades
for two rooms in this part of the city.
The Enlargement op the District.
In April, 1917, the Town District of the city of Concord
voted, in annual meeting, to unite with Union School Dis-
trict, and a subsequent act of the state legislature, then in
session, legalized the change. The Town District com-
prised all of the town of Concord lying without the bounds
of Union School District except that portion of Ward One
which now belongs to Penacook Union District. In that
part of Concord, which was known as the Town District,

there are at present twelve schoolhouses, but only five of
these are in use. The following table may be interesting
for reference. The valuation given was that handed in to

Four of the five buildings in use have very small enroll-
ments of pupils — Riverhill, Mountain, Iron Works and
Stickney Hill. In none of these is there evidence of in-
creasing numbers and the future will not probably produce
any change for the better. The classes are small and first-
year pupils are little in evidence.
The Millville school has two rooms, both of wliieh are
graded and largely attended. They are out of the class
of rural schools. If the attendance increases more room
will be necessary and can be furnished either by adding to
the present building or by erecting a new one.
The Stickney Hill school is conducted by the town of
Hopkinton, under an agreement with the former Town
District, by which Hopkinton furnishes the teacher and
school supplies, and Union District the schoolhouse. The
cost of repairs to the building is equally divided between
the two towns.
None of the buildings not in use are needed and prob-
ably never will be, consequently they should be disposed
of before decay impairs their value.
82 CITY OF CONCORD.
In Appendix I to this report may be found a table giv-
ing facts about the transportation routes as they are to-
day. Problems arising from the transportation of pupils
to the various schools are frequent and vexatious. Equal-
ity of privilege, capable of much misconstruction, causes
endless argument. The amount paid for transportation
is large, but it is much less than that needed to open these
schools for use. If it should be decided to carry pupils of
all grades of school the cost would be very much increased.
This would make it desirable for the district to own its
vehicles and let the transportation privileges to the lowest
bidder. Such a plan would be economical both in expense
and in convenience.
School Buildings.
Concord has good school buildings and they are looked
after by a capable sub-committee, corps of janitors and
teachers. Within the past year extensive repairs have been
made in the Penacook, Dewey, Riverhill and Iron Works
schools. Many of the other schools need inside finishing.
The light of a room is often spoiled by a ceiling that has
become darkened through being left too long without re-
pair. The policy of putting at least one building a year
in good order is the best way to keep the plant from dete-
riorating. The entire interior of the Dewey School has
been refinished. The system of lighting in the Penacook
School has been made to conform to modern requirements.
The light now comes from the north side entirely. A new
urinal was installed in the boys' basement and the entire
basement made lighter by putting in more windows. The
Riverhill School has been shingled, the Iron Works build-
ing given new support underneath and the outside of the
building painted. New valves have been installed in the
high school boilers so that this building and the Morrill
building can be heated separately, or together, as the case
may require. The Chandler and the Parker buildings have
been painted on the outside. The unusual cold weather
SCHOOL REPORT. 83
of January caused much freezing in nearly all of the build-
ings. It would be good economy to have the piping looked
over by an expert each summer.
School Lunches.
The history of school lunches in Union School District
is varied. In early times a cold lunch, brought to school
by the pupil, was thought to be a rational provision. Many
who did that are in good health even today and loth to
believe that it did them harm. Provision by the district
began during the one-session plan of conducting the high
school, when hot cocoa, coffee rolls, chocolate eclairs, can-
dies, etc., were allowed to be sold to the pupils, in addition
to some more nutritious things. The vendor was under
the authority of the Board of Education, but the sale
eventually resolved itself largely into one of sweets, the
nutritious being somewhat side-tracked. Lunches served
by a caterer under school authority and carried on with
varying success in the Parker School and the High School
followed the previous plan. Purchasing tickets were in the
five-cent denominations, the amount bought being regu-
lated by the appetite and the purse of the pupil. In a
more limited way, hot cocoa and soups have been served
pupils at cost in the following schools : Garrison, Eastman,
Chandler, Walker and all the rural schools. Beginning
with last fall term lunch in the Parker School was handled
by the cooking department, and every girl has taken part
in preparing meals. All this was done at the suggestion
of Miss Diekerman and under the immediate direction of
Miss Davis, Miss Watson assisting. Suitable apparatus,
was purchased and other arrangements made to have the
lunch served in a proper way by the cafeteria plan. The
success wliich attended this innovation induced the com-^
mittee to try a similar arrangement in the senior high
school, beginning December 31, 1917. Miss Davis has gen-
eral charge of the lunches in both the Parker School and
the High School, Mrs. Cobb assisting in the High School.
84 CITY OF CONCORD.
The purchasing tickets are in the five-cent denominations
and the lunches are finely cooked, palatable, nutritious,
clean and well served. The patronage has been liberal.
Actual food costs are more than met even in these times
of high prices and I can see no reason why, in normal
times, the entire cost of maintaining the lunches cannot
be met by receipts from the actual food sales.
The Senior High School.
Mr. Cook's report will deal with the details of the work
in this school. It has gone smoothly and quite effectively
throughout the entire year. The work of all such schools
fails in functional ideals by clinging too much to the dis-
ciplinary side of teaching. However, secondary schools are
becoming more identified with public needs each succeeding
year and I believe that our senior high school is now serv-
ing the general public better than ever before. This is a
good sign. The giving up of the study of the so-called
dead language grows to a great extent. I regret this ex-
ceedingly because, for higher grades of mentality, I do not
believe anything has yet been found that will fill its place,
and I earnestly hope that Latin, at least, will continue to
attract enough pupils so that former high standards of
work may be maintained. The social standing of the
school has been directed toward higher levels. Parents'
days have been observed and a meeting of all the teachers
of the district, irrespective of grade, was held in high
school hall so that too much of class consciousness might
not prevail in the corps. I believe this meeting was one
of the most helpful of the entire year. The parents' days
have served to promote an acquaintance between parents
and teachers more extensively than ever before. From
talks with many different parents I know these gatherings
are keenly appreciated. The teaching corps has lost only
a few teachers this year by resignation — Edward W. Ells-
worth, Marion C. Hixson and Mary K. Taylor. I speak
particularly of Miss Taylor because her career as a teacher
SCHOOL REPORT. 85
was begun and continued, up to the time of her resigna-
tion, entirely in Concord schools. Miss Taylor was a tre-
mendous power in this school. Her methods were formu-
lateil in the Parker School and as time went on were ex-
panded and strengthened to meet the requirements of older
pupils. Teachers of her caliber are not common. The en-
tire corps, from the principal down, have striven diligently
for success, and deserve commendation for their good work.
The Junior High Schools.
A very superior grade of work is being done in these
schools. Their place has been demonstrated beyond the
possibility of a doubt. This is shown by the remarkable
growth of the junior high school throughout the country.
THE PARKER SCHOOL.
So much has been said about the good work of tins school
that it is difficult to find words for additional commenda-
tion. It is admirably handled and its reputation for
standard attainment extends beyond the limits of our
state. There are few lines of regular work in which this
school is not a pioneer as far as modern methods go.
THE CHANDLER, WALKER, GARRISON AND EASTMAN SCHOOLS.
It will be difficult to find better work of this grade than
can be seen in these schools. Their subordinate positions
in no wise determines their usefulness nor sterling char-
acter. I would respectfully call the attention of the Board
of Education to the lack of laboratory privileges in all of
these buildings, and in the Chandler School there has never
been room enough to do the work laid out as it should be
done.
The course of study has been revised so as to conform
to state requirements. INTathematics now takes a review
of arithmetic in class ]\I, followed by equations and meas-
urements. Class N uses the entire time with concrete
86 CITY OF CONCORD.
geometry. The work in history has been lightened by
transferring a part of it to classes K and L. Classes in
community civics and in elouentary science were formed
and all work made to function with real life as far as con-
ditions will allow.
Concord was the second city in the entire country to
adopt the junior high school and the first city to put in
practice the six, two, three plan. For eight years the dis-
trict has maintained this grading with success beyond the
earl}^ predictions. As now placed we have the following
arrangement :
First Year — Classes M and N. Chandler, Walker, Garri-
son and Eastman schools.
Second Year — Classes and P, Parker School.
It may be seen easily that the unity of the first year is
broken by apportioning the pupils among four different
schools. This is a great hindrance to the most efficient
work. If all the pupils belonging to these schools could
be brought together in one building of sufficient capacity
an impetus would be given the work that would mean
much to them. They could remain under the same corps
of teachers for two years. The best of laboratory privi-
leges could be realized. The differentiation of courses
could be begun in Class M instead of class 0. Systematic
hygienic work could be put in practice. All social activi-
ties could be guided along the same lines for a period of
two years. Chorus and orchestra practice could be more
effectively organized. Eventually the work of the senior
high scnool could b(^ prolonged one year by giving addi-
tional privileges to students along the following lines :
College preparatory work by which a pupil might shorten
his college course one year and also by which the child of
the poor man would be enabled to work one year in college
studies ; vocational education could be begun ea'rlier and
continued for an extended period ; domestic arts courses
might be more rationally carried out by supplementary
home practice ; office practice in the senior high school
SCHOOL REPORT. ' 87
could be concretely applied, and there are many other
things that would come up to place our schools on a higher
plane than they are now. I hope the matter will be con-
sidered carefully and that some means will be devised by
which this unity of junior high work may be strength-
ened, thus insuring the continuance of that educational
progress which has always marked our city as a pioneer
in the educational advancement of the state.
Elementary Schools.
The courses of the elementary schools have been revised
in a few minor details to make the articulation with the
junior high schools more reasonable. Departmental work
in two studies has been instituted in the Garrison School.
The course in mathematics in class L has been changed to
meet the needs of the succeeding grades. History has been
introduced into classes K and L to relieve the crowded
curriculum in classes M and N. The results of definite
method in spelling, geography, history and other minor
studies show to good advantage. These will be still fur-
ther extended and adjusted to the needs of the pupils.
In General.
The various activities so closely allied to the regular
work as to become an almost necessary part of the school
system are given detailed reports by the supervisors. The
kindergartens have about held their attendance of former
years. No new ones have been started, but a census taken
at the south end shows that there are enough children of
these ages who would .probably attend if they had the
opportunity. We have one vacant room in the Penacook
School and if conditions do not change we shall have ac-
commodations for an additional kindergarten here next
year.
The sewing classes have done their usual good work and
in addition have rendered valuable aid to the Charitable
Society and to the Red Cross organizations.
88 ■ CITY OF CONCORD.
The several departments of night school work have fol-
lowed their usual lines. The class of foreigners was small,
but enthusiastic. The cooking class failed to equal its en-
rollment of last year and was continued for but a short
time. The class in mechanical drawing held its enrollment
to the end of the course with eminent success. Even in this
unusually troubled year a great amount of good was real-
ized from these classes. I believe the committee in charge
of these schools can make no mistake in enlarging the scope
of the work and enough funds should be provided to make
it more of a success than it is now.
The manual training department has held to its former
courses and reaped results commensurate with the energy
shown by the teaching corps. Classes in radio work, ma-
chine work and blacksmithing were formed and have been
conducted with good enrollment and with notable success.
The question of changing over the courses in mechanic
arts to meet the requirements of the Smith-Hughes bill, in
order that' we may get the benefits of its provisions, has
been carefully considered but not accepted as feasible at
the present time by Mr. French. The project work of the
school has been more fully developed this year than ever
before and its use to the schools in general has been clearly
shown.
The Dewey Training School graduated the largest class
in its history last June. All secured places in different
parts of the state without difficulty or delay. A shortage
of teachers for public schools has manifested itself through-
out the country and there is no question but that the gradu-
ates of this school will be eagerly sought as they always
have been.
Capt. Morrill resigned the position of instructor of mil-
itary drill to enter the United States service. His place
was filled by the election of Arden F. Coulter, who, in
turn, resigned for a like reason. His place was taken by
Jonathan E. Ingersoll. He left to work in another state.
Michael H. Mulligan now holds the position.
The cooking school has done its work largely in eonnec-
SCHOOL REPORT. 89
tion with the school lunches. For the first semester it was
under the instruction and direction of Miss Davis. Miss
Myrtle Farrar was chosen to fill the vacancy made by Miss
Davis' promotion and affairs are progressing along the
most modern lines. The course of the Dewey normal
classes has been entirely rearranged to meet the demands
of the state with regard to the needs of the rural schools.
The special school in the Walker building has had its
most prosperous experience. The attendance has been up
to the limit throughout the year and the worth of the
work accomplished here w'as shown by the display at the
annual drawing exhibits of last June.
The successful work in drawing was demonstrated at the
annual exhibition in June. It excelled all previous ex-
hibits in about every respect. The history of art has
been begun again in the domestic arts course under the
instruction of Miss Ford of the senior high school.
Teachers.
Even in these times of unrest the personnel of the teach-
ing corps has suffered no great changes. The strength of
the corps has been impaired by the resignation of several
teachers and it has been no easy matter to fill the vacan-
cies. Violation of the code of ethics adopted by the Edu-
cational Council for the state of New Hampshire has not
been encountered save in one instance. That case was the
most flagrant one that has ever come to my notice and the
Board of Education rightly refused to accept the resigna-
tion of the teacher who ignored the terms of her contract.
The patriotic spirit of the teachers has been manifest
in many different ways. The spontaneous response of the
entire corps to the request of the draft board for volun-
tary assistance in tabulating the drafts leaves no doubt
about the desire of all to do what little they may for their
country's welfare in these critical times.
As a general thing teachers have maintained the stand-
ards of former years. I cannot speak too strongly about
90 CITY OF CONCORD.
keeping our efficient teachers at all hazards. I do not be-
lieve we should allow a few dollars to attempt to offset
services which are invaluable. If war conditions continue
the matter of securing competent teachers will become more
and more serious and the task of keeping school work up
to the standard increasingly difficult. Teachers should
retain their positions and not be led away from their pro-
fession by the glamour of government service.
Obituary.
Miss Margaret Morrill died very suddenly September 2,
1917. She had been assistant in the Merrimack and the
Walker kindergartens and w^as in active service at the time
of her death. Her life and work were model in all respects.
Miss Margaret A. Donovan died at her home December
8, 1917. Miss Donovan had been graduated from the
Dewey Training School and had taught in the primary
grades at the Kimball School. Her work was always
marked by an enthusiasm which brings success. Failing
health caused her to give up her school work.
It seldom happens that the short space of one year re-
moves by death two such fine teachers. Both were reared
in Concord and educated in the public schools. Each was
noted for her lovable disposition, fondness for .children,
even temperament and tireless energy. Their associates
and acquaintances will long remember their beauty of
character and ^vholesome companionship.
Hygiene.
Physical education is not receiving the careful attention
that it ought and I respectfully call your attention to the
unsatisfactory results from tests that have been given at
different times showing that there is urgent need of sys-
tematic hygienic drill for pupils of all grades of school.
The teachers do as well as they can, but wdth the great
number of other things they are called upon to perform
SCHOOL REPORT. 91
they cannot give the physical growth of children the at-
tention it needs. Recent tests given drafted men brought
to light an alarming state of physical decay among them.
New England stood particularly low in the list of sections
compared for physical efficiency. The remarkable trans-
formation wrought by six months' drill in cantonments
ought to. open the eyes of all and set us to thinking what
such methods might do in the public schools if applied by
a skilled medical supervisor. The bent forms of young
boys and girls suggest either prevalent or prospective dis-
ease. I am writing this in the hope that it may engage the
serious thought of people who hold the health of the rising
generations in concern, and that we may have a medical
supervisor who can not only inspect schools to forestall
and stamp out disease, but also give children such physical
training as will tend to prevent its gaining a hold among
them.
Work for the War.
The schools are playing an important role in carrying
on the war. The zeal of the teaching corps finds a reflec-
tion in the eagerness of the student body to carry out the
requests of the national government for various lines of
work.
SCHOOL GARDENS.
Last year many of the pupils maintained school gardens
and increased the general food supply to quite an extent.
This year a plan of campaign has been formulated to carry
out the desires of the state to multiply the number for the
coming summer. Exhibitions of food products were held
in the Garrison, Rumford and Walker schools during the
fall term.
WAR SAVING STAMPS.
The schools have been particularly active in this line of
work and have made an enviable record in the purchase of
thrift stamps. From the table given in Appendix we
92 CITY OF CONCORD.
find that up to March, 11,873 thrift stamps have been pur-
chased, for which $3,024.12 was paid to the United States
government.
THE ARMENIAN RELIEF FUND.
The pupils contributed to this fund freely until it was
merged with the Junior Red Cross organization.
RED CROSS WORK.
The various activities of knitting, garment-making,
trench candles, etc., have received their due attention and
Concord schools will not be found wanting in rendering
such aid. Some idea may be gained of the extent of this
work from the record of the Parker School alone where
190 pupils have worked at some form of Red Cross serv-
ice and among other things have made 564 comfort pillows
and 2,558 trench candles.
WAR LITERATURE.
The request of the national government for the study of
war literature in the schools has been complied with. The
senior high school now has embodied this in the English
course.
While all of these things are of great value and indicate
loyalty to the government we must be extremely careful
that school work is not Aveakened by demands from the
outside. Nor must we warp our vision to such an extent
as to be unable to see that patriotic duty lies more than
ever before in the wholesome education of the youth. Cer-
tain essential forces have been sorely neglected in our past
period of prosperity, particularly vocational, physical and
moral training. Tlie public school has all the elements for
meeting such emergencies. It seems to have required a
• cataclysm to reveal the unfitness of American institutions
in these respects. It has shown that the needs of the com-
mon man have not been given their due attention. Our
SCHOOL REPORT. 93
educational plan has been too one-sided and made for the
limited few. This can be obviated only by dividing the
pupil body into two classes. Those who will naturally fol-
low out a plan of life which calls for the fullest develop-
ment of intellectual power without intensive manual labor
and those who will have to pursue a life in fields that re-
quire manual dexterity and technical knowledge. The war
thus far has revealed not so much a shortage of trained in-
tellects as a shortage of skilled labor. The future will ask
of us not a limited number of trained athletes from our
public schools, but a physically fit student body so that
not only the few but rather all may bring good bodily
development to meet conditions which suddenly arise. It
is sure to ask that people have moral stamina developed to
such an extent that they will not waver under the unrea-
sonable complaints of the discontented. It will also de-
mand that the large per cent, of our population receive the
corresponding per cent, of opportunity due them so that
they can live more wholesome and profitable lives. In no
other time in our history then should we be more careful
that schools be not drawn aside from their allotted work.
A work not calculated to foster merciless domination with
a conception antagonistic to democratic ideals. Nor must
we lose sight of the fact that the strength of our nation lies
in our public schools. Therefore we must look at all times
with questioning eye upon our ideals and doings so that
the distractions of tumult, horror and chaos will not turn
us aside from preparing the youth for present conditions
and the possibilities of the unseen future.
I have never before been so impressed with the great help
given me, both from the Board of Education, the teachers
and the public, as I have in the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
L. J. RUNDLETT,
Superintendent.
REPORT OF THE HEADMASTER OF
THE HIGH SCHOOL.
Supt. L. J. Rundlett, Concord, N. H.
Dear Sir : I am sending to j^ou a report of the work of
the senior high school for the year February, 1917 -Febru-
ary, 1918.
Attendance.
The total enrollment during the first semester of the
present year was 485. This includes postgraduates and
special students. The total enrollment outside of these
two classes was 470. These figures show that the size of
the school is practically the same as it was a year ago.
The crowded condition of some of the divisions has made
necessary the employment of an additional teacher. To
make room for these extra classes we are now using a part
of the assembly hall for recitation.
Graduation.
The class graduating June 15, 1917, numbered seventy-
six. The class which graduated in January, 1917, num-
bered fifty-one. This makes a total of one hundred twenty-
seven for the school year ending June, 1917. The number
graduating in January, 1918, was thirty-nine. A pleasing
feature of recent graduations has been the presentation of
a gift by members of the graduating class to the school.
The class of June, 1917, gave a bust of Tennyson. The
class of January, 1918, gave a service flag in honor of those
who have entered the United States service from the
school.

War Activities.
The students of the school have all been very much inter-
ested in the various forms of war work which they have
been able to perform. Contributions have been made very
generously to the various war funds. Individual members
have done a great deal of work in connection with surgical
dressings and the Red Cross. The school has applied for
membership as a Junior chapter of the Red Cross. The
home garden and "cut a cord" movements have been sup-
ported by individual members of the school. The interest
in this work has been stimulated, no doubt, by the fact that
we have an honor roll including the names of all those
graduates and non-graduates who have entered into any
form of war service. This includes at the present time a
list numbering 190.
The Library.
Last year I said in my report that the appointment of a
regular librarian had been justified by the aid and addi-
tional efficiency which this had given to the other depart-
ments of the school. Another year's work has increased
my opinion of the value of this appointment. There is
need, however, of additional equipment if this department
is to be kept up in the most efficient way. For several
years we have had practically no additions to the library
except w^hat have come through gifts. Many of our most
valuable reference books are being used up and they need
to be replaced. We also need each year to buy new books
to add to the list which we already have. We ought fur-
ther to have regular subscriptions to one or more daily
papers and to several of the best magazines and periodicals.
I am asking for an appropriation of at least $100 a year
for this work and am confident that no part of the money
spent for the high school will be used to better advantage.

School Events.
On May 25, 1917, an entertainment was given in the
assembly hall which consisted of scenes from "The Idylls
of the King" by members of the senior English classes.
The scenes were very effectively staged and reflect credit
upon the work of the students.
On June 8, 1917, occurred the first Albin prize medal
contest. This contest was made possible by the gift to
the school by Mrs. J. H. Albin in honor of the late Mr.
Albin. Nine contestants participated and the medals were
won by Mary E. Stearns and Hugh J. Cruikshank.
During the fall term we had the annual meeting for the
mothers of the district which was addressed by Dr. Marion
L. Bugbee. There was a good attendance of the parents
and the meeting was, I think, productive of much interest
and benefit.
School Work.
In general the work of the school has been conducted as
quietly and effectively as in former years with a steadfast
effort to maintain a standard which will be respected by the
community. The early closing of the building, made neces-
sary by the coal shortage, has interfered with the meetings
of the Lyceum and of the Girls' Club. This is to be re-
gretted for these two organizations are very beneficial to
the school. In all other respects the spirit of the school
and the co-operation of the students and teachers has been
very effective.
The change made in the method of serving lunch which
was inaugurated in January has been, from the viewpoint
of the student, a decided benefit. The lunch, in quality,
quantity and the manner of serving, is more satisfactory
than anything we have had heretofore.
There is only one change in our work which I wish to
advocate and that is the taking up of the study of Spanish
in our regular course. The increasing prominence that has
SCHOOL REPORT. 97
been given in recent years to the relations between this
country and South America has made this language more
important to us. The present war conditions will only
serve to make the commercial and political relations be-
tween these two countries even closer and more binding. I.
think that we should arrange as soon as we can do so con-
veniently to start this subject.
Respectfully submitted,
C. F. COOK,
Headmaster.
REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING.
February 26, 1918.
Louis J. Rundlett, Superintendent of Schools, Concord,
N. H.:
The drawing department has made few changes in its
plan of work the past year. In the elementary schools it
has seemed desirable to lay stress on the construction,
measuring and those problems wiiich teach pupils the value
of accuracy and neatness.
The classes of the domestic arts course of the high school
have accomplished more and the work is of a rather higher
standard than in previous years.
O'W'ing to the lack of free periods in the different courses
and the limited time of the instructor the number of pupils
taking drawing as an elective study is small. The elective
pupils this year have given some attention to the rendering
of landscapes in different mediums as a preparation for the
sketching excursions to be taken later when the weather
permits.
The training classes have found their individual black-
boards helpful. These have given the pupils an oppor-
tunity to practice forms that would be needed in demon-
stration before classes and the making of a blackboard
calendar by each pupil proved to be of benefit to all.
An exhibition of drawings from the elementary schools
and classes of the high school domestic arts course and
elective drawing pupils was held at the close of school in
June.
Respectfully submitted,
FAITH C. STALKER,
Supervisor of Drawing.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF SEWING.
Mr. L. J. Rundlett, Superintendent of Schools, Union
School District, Concord, N. H.
Dear Sir : The sewing this year has been of an exceed-
ingly practical and helpful nature and has proved its use-
fulness, not only in teaching the girls to sew but also in
giving aid to others. Until January 1, 1918, the work was
mainly for the poor in Concord and the pupils made twenty
boys' waists, ten children's dresses, fifty- four petticoats,
three pairs of rompers, four night-dresses, four children's
sleeping garments.
For the Union School District they have made 208 tow-
els for the cooking classes, thirteen aprons and three table
covers for the manual training school, two dozen towels
and two aprons for dental room and have repaired four
flags.
Since Januarj^ 1 the work has been for the Red Cross
and consists of 100 bandages, three dozen towels, two dozen
surgical shirts and one dozen dresses and petticoats. A
great deal of interest is shown by all the girls over this
opportunity to do Red Cross service. While the war con-
tinues there is no reason why they cannot be regularly era-
ployed in this phase of war work, as they are thereby
making a practical as well as useful application of their
daily lessons.
The pupils of domestic arts course have to their credit
132 finished garments and 92 unfinished garments. They
also trimmed 47 hats.
Forty-three girls from junior and senior high schools
have this year elected sewing. This number is constantly
increasing and is very gratifying, as more are choosing
sewing as an elective than ever before.
Respectively submitted,
LOUISE C. HOWE.
REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF
LUNCHES AND COOKING.
Mr. L. J. RundleU, Superintendent of Schools.
Dear Sir : By the decision, in September, 1917, to ex-
tend the work of the domestic science department, both
the cooking classes and the lunch room were greatly bene-
fited. The necessary equipment was installed in the Par-
ker School, and every girl is required to take cooking as
part of her regular course. As in the past, the beginners'
classes follow a regular outline, but work with larger quan-
tities, while the others make whatever is necessary for the
lunch counter, where is sold practically everything that is
made. By so doing each student has an opportunity to
work with larger quantities than formerly at less expense
to the district, prices charged for the food being sufficient
to cover the cost of materials. This has created much en-
thusiasm in the class, as pupils naturally prefer making a
whole recipe alone to making one-fourth the rule with an-
other person. The girls now have the privilege of buying
what they make to take home. The lunch counter is run
on the cafeteria plan, and the students who assist in serv-
ing have their lunches free.
Owing to the great call for preservation of food a large
amount of fruits and vegetables was canned, and much
marmalade, jam and jelly was made in the fall. The stu-
dents remarked that nothing was wasted. The pulp and
skins of grapes were made into marmalade, and apple pulp
and skins into apple butter. All of these were most ac-
ceptable and useful later on in the year when sugar became
so scarce.
The lunch at the Parker School proved so satisfactory
that in January new equipment was installed at the sen-
SCHOOL EEPORT, 101
ior high ; as nearly twice as many are served in this build-
ing a competent cook was necessary, and we w^ere most
fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. Cobb. Two elec-
tive classes help with the cooking each day, one under
Miss Ford and the other under my own direction. In
January, Miss Myrtle Farrar took charge of the classes
at the Parker, and I made my headquarters at the senior
high, although still planning the class work and menus
and buying the supplies for both high and Parker schools.
It is quite difficult in these times of high prices and
food scarcity to provide a satisfactory menu, but each day
we serve some kind of soup and toast for 5 cents, a meat
or meat substitute for 5 cents, sandwiches 5 cents, cocoa
or milk, with choice of sandwich or muffin, 5 cents, mashed
potato, gravy, muffin and butter 5 cents, and dessert 5
cents.
In addition to the regular work the Parker School en-
tertained the superintendents at luncheon the day of their
convention here. The high school elective classes helped
prepare a part of the Y. M. C. A. "Father and Son" ban-
quet. Some of the girls have assisted the state demon-
strators. The students are all taught the aim of the food
administration and ways in which they may help.
Respectively submitted,
HARRIET B. DAVIS.
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE.
Mr. L. J. Rundlctt, Superintendent.
Dear Sir: It is difficult for a school nurse to report si,
year's work briefly. This year is to be known as "Chil-
dren's Year" because the problem of child health is so
serious. The condition of each child's health should be
looked after by a medical inspector. Over half of the pub-
lic school pupils are probably affected with some form of
ailment. A combination of the work of a school physician
followed up by that of a school nurse would work wonders.
No one person should be expected to look after the health
of the entire school population of a city like Concord. It
is time for this city to awake to its responsibilities and
appoint a competent school physician.
More time ought to be given to practical health talks in
the schools. If w^e wish to interest the communitj^ in mat-
ters of public health, the message of hj^gienic living should
be instilled into the minds of the children who in turn
will carry the word home to the parents.
Dui-ing the year the usual number of defects found have
been corrected, and cases referred to parents have received
prompt attention. Tlie hearty co-operation of the parents
is most gratifying.
Health day was observed with appropriate remarks by
physicians and others. Twice during the year I have
spoken on public health to the pupils in Miss Sargent's
class in the high school.
The dental clinic, now a year old, is no longer an experi-
ment. Since its beginning it has been a pronounced suc-
cess. The dentists manifest the same enthusiasm which
marked the early days. Each in turn gives a Saturday
afternoon without remuneration of any kind. It is pleas-
ing to note that throughout the entire year every appoint-
SCHOOL REPORT. 103
ment has been faithfully kept. Aside from the time given
on Saturday many of the dentists have treated children in
their own offices, or have gone to the hospital to do work
which could not be done in the clinic. The room is well
equipped and the work done in a thoroughly satisfactory
manner. We may all feel a just pride in the dental clinic,
which is second to none in the state.
Miss Anderson, who assists me, deserves special credit
for her faithful, conscientious work.
I sincerely appreciate the hearty co-operation which has
been given me by the Board of Education, you and the
teachers.
I have made 400 home calls for the following conditions:
Defective vision, 30
Defective teeth, 80
Throat and nose condition, 55
Pediculosis, 45

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF MUSIC.
3Ir. L. J. Rundlett, Superintendent.
De-Vr Sir: The work of the music department of the
Concord schools is conducted along five different lines :
First. Singing and sight reading in the primary and
grammar grades.
Second. Chorus work in the junior and senior high
schools.
Third. The various branches of music taught in the fifth
course in the higli schools.
Fourth. The work with the pupil-teachers in the Dewey
Training School.
Fifth. Orchestral work.
Someone has said, "Be not the first by whom the new is
tried, nor yet the last to lay the old aside." It is some-
what in accord with this precept that we are conducting
the work in singing.
We are using the same text-books and practically the
same methods as have been in use here for several years
and we are doing this because the results, as a whole, have
been satisfactory.
Such a part of the rudiments of music as is necessary
for intelligent sight singing is taught in all of the primary
grades, and as a result we are getting good individual and
class work there and most excellent chorus work in the
higher grades.
A careful use of the child-voice is insisted upon at all
times and we are rewarded for this by an unusually large
number of pure sopranos found in the high schools.
A large part of the credit for our really excellent chorus
106 CITY OP CONCORD.
singing in the higher grades should be given to the lower
grade teachers who have, without exception, done most
painstaking and intelligent work.
The director of music has been unable to visit regu-
larly the school near Sewall's Falls or the one at Riverhill.
The teachers there report music as a part of their weekly
program. Visits are made , to the schools on the Iron
"Works Road and at Millville every four weeks.
The chorus singing in the high schools is very satis-
factory. Especially noteworthy is that at the Parker
School.
Owing to the large number of boys who have employ-
ment directly after school in the afternoon, it has not been
possible to resume glee club work with them this winter.
A large and remarkably good girls' glee club meets for
weekly practice at the senior high.
The work of the fifth high school course goes more
smoothly each year. This includes rudiments of music,
melody writing, elementary harmony, music history and
music literature. We need a good encyclopedia of music
as an aid to the proper preparation of the work of this
course.
The work with the members of the Dewey Training
School has been conducted along lines similar to those of
last year. A record is kept of each recitation and a writ-
ten report is submitted to the principal of the school every
ten weeks. Satisfactory progress is being made by all.
The condition of a high school orchestra is, like New
England weather, subject to sudden changes. Every grad-
uation takes away a valued member and if that member
has been playing some other instrument than the violin
the vacancy is not always easily filled. Our orchestra is
not as able an organization as it was two years ago but
we hope for better things in the future.
At the Chandler School an orchestra consisting of five
violins, two cornets and a piano have met for weekly prac-
tice during the past semester. The mid-year promotion
SCHOOL REPORT. 107
has taken away two of the violins and one of the cornets,
but it has given us a drummer.
At the Parker School we have recently organized an
orchestra of five violins, a cornet, drums and piano.
If these groups can be strengthened and maintained it
will most certainly add to the etfectiveness of the senioi'
organization.
It has been difficult to interest pupils in the more unfa-
miliar instruments of the orchestra. In vain we look for
performers upon the 'cello, the trombone or upon any of
the wood-wind instruments.
Our bass player, who has rendered good service ever
since the instrument was purchased, will probably leave us
in June. If we could have another instrument for use at
the Parker School it would greatly help the work there
and also solve the problem of a bass player in the senior
high.
The annual concert was given last spring at a financial
profit of $19.54. During the year repairs upon one of the
timpani and the contra-bass, strings for the bass, and a pin
given as a reward for regular attendance at orchestra prac-
tice, have cost $26.75. The money for the payment of
these bills was taken from the fund upon deposit to the
credit of the high school chorus. This fund now^ amounts
to about one hundred and sixty dollars.
In closing I wish to again testify to the loyal service
which is being rendered by the teachers in the Concord
schools. They have, without exception, given me able and
cheerful assistance, and whatever success has been gained
in this department is due largely to them.
I also desire to express my thanks to the superintendent
and to the members of the Board of Education for the
encouragement which has always been extended to me.
Respectfully submitted,
C. S. CONANT.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF MANUAL
TRAINING.
Mr. L. J. B.undlett, Superintendent of Schools.
Dear Sir: I herewith submit my uiuth annual report
of the work of the Morrill School.
Early last year the school was registered with the State
Committee on Safety to do war work and we have kept the
equipment in good condition and the work well in hand
with this in view. Some printing has been done for the
Red Cross and other work would have been done if proper
instructions could have been had. The lack of authority
to go ahead with this work has made it quite impossible to
do much.
In November a radio class was organized for drafted
men. Charles F. Archer, a local train despatcher, was se-
cured as instructor. An advisory committee consisting of
Arthur W. Perkins, chief train despatcher, Boston & Maine
Eailroad, Earl F. Newton, division toll wire chief, New
England Telephone & Telegraph Co., and Joseph D. Ken-
nedy, Associated Press operator, was appointed and gave
some valuable suggestions which have been followed. The
class has enrolled a total of thirty-five men, some of whom
are in France at the present time. Other classes are now
being organized in machine shop practice, pattern making,
forging and oxy-acetylene gas welding.
The principal feature of the past year's work in high
school classes has been the large number of shop visits
made. An outline was made out at the beginning of the
year for visits to practically all the large shops in to^vn,
each class going to the shop that was doing work similar
to that which it was doing in the school. After each shop
visit written reports were handed in by the boys, which
were corrected for their technical value at the Morrill
SCHOOL REPORT. 109
School and handed to the English teacher as a regular
essay in high school. Among the places that have been
visited are Concord Wood Working Co., New England Box
Co., Monitor office, Rumford Press, Abbot & Downing Co.,
Ford & Kimball, Page Belting Co., Boston & Maine shops,
Wm. B. Durgin Co. I wish to express my appreciation to
these people for the liberties they have granted us in their
plants. This work is of value from several standpoints
outside of its educational worth which cannot be ques-
tioned. It has a civic value in that it shows the boys what
is being done in Concord and makes them better acquainted
with the industries of their home city.
The evening drawing class was opened November 5 and
has been conducted two nights a week. The following list
shows the occupations of the men seeking instruction. In
every case a knowledge of mechanical drawing is of value
to them in every-day work.

January 10, 1918, Robert R. Stanley, factory inspector
for the State Bureau of Labor, made a thorough inspec-
tion of the building. Although schools do not come under
the state law requiring inspection it is the policy of those
in charge to have the school safe in every respect, in fact
to make it a model shop. As a whole the shops are in ex-
110 CITY OF CONCORD,
eellent condition. Mr. Stanley offered a few valuable sug-
gestions, several of which have been followed and the oth-
ers are in i^rocess of being completed. Most of the im-
provements can be made by the regular pupils with very
little expense.
During the year there were several changes in the staff
of teachers. Mr. Johnson resigned in June and Mr. Roland
G. HartAvell, of Pittsfield, was elected to fill the vacancy.
Mr. HartAvell was not a stranger in the school as he had
spent two summers here attending the summer school.
Daniel Flint resigned in June as repair man and student
assistant in order to take up war work and entered the
employ of the government in the Portsmouth navy yard.
In November, Mr. Harold Chamberlin enlisted with the
colors and his place was filled by Mr. Eldon T. Alden.
In the summer vacation a wash-room with twenty-four
bowls connected with hot and cold water was installed in
the basement. This was very much needed and was greatly
appreciated by both teachers and pupils. Quite a little
expense in soap and toAvels has been saved since this was
installed. A sink was also connected in the print shop
and it has proved a great convenience.
"While the schools were closed during the winter vaca-
tion the arrangement of the steam pipes on the high school
boilers was changed and new valves added which made it
possible to heat the JMorrill School without heating the
high school.
There are practically no repairs of any account that
need to be done on the building another year. It is in
excellent condition. No new equipment is needed for the
regular work and that whicli is needed for the special war
classes is already provided for. I suggest no new features
for another year but would rather recommend adhering
to the present policy of being ready to do whatever needs
most to be done in the way of preparing both men and
boys for their places in the nation.
Respectfully submitted,
ARTHUR W. FRENCH.
REPORT OF INSTRUCTOR IN MILITARY
DRILL.
Mr. L. J. Rundlett, Superintendent, Concord, N. H.
Dear Sir : The military drill at the high school is going
very satisfactorily.
We have a company of forty boys who drill every after-
noon from 2.30 to 3.30.
They are all very much interested in the subject, work
hard and attend strictly to business.
I hope in the future to have a larger company, as there
are a number of boys who have come from the Parker
School, and will no doubt join the company.
Just as soon as the weather is favorable I intend to take
the boys on the range and instruct them in the use of the
rifle.
In closing I wish to thank Mr. Cook for his earnest co-
operation, and also Major Hammond for his kindness in
allowing us the use of the armory.
Respectfully submitted,
MICHAEL H. MULLIGAN,
Instructor Military Drill.

REPORT OF BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
Office of the Board of Water Commissioners,
Concord, N. H., February 2, 1918.
To His Honor the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen:
The Board of Water Commissioners herewith transmits
the report of Superintendent Percy R. Sanders, showing
the operations of the department for the year 1917, and
which report from its completeness seems to require no
further comment.
The board desires to express its appreciation of the serv-
ices of its employees during the more than ordinary stress
of the year, and especially the early months when trouble
occasioned by the outbreak of the war was looked for, and
at which time it was thought best to place guards about
the dam at West Concord, at the pumping station and
about the reservoir. The city was fortunate in having
nothing develop to make it seem necessary to continue the
guarding of the property, and in the latter part of May
the guards were dispensed with.
The board desires to return thanks to the Concord Elec-
tric Company for its prompt co-operation in lighting the
property during this period, immediate attention being
given to the request for lights and the service being con-
tinued as long as necessary.
The last report called attention to the questions that had
arisen in regard to the rights of the public to the use of
the waters of Penacook Lake and the land about the same,
the court having given its decree upholding in all respects
the claims of the city; the public is to be congratulated
that its drinking water is now secure from private con-
tamination and the use of the shores of the lake from un-
authorized occupation.
174 CITY OF CONCORD.
The board has during the year acquired the property of
Robert Crowley at the head of the lake for $9,000, thus do-
ing away with the stable, dwelling house and ice houses
which might easily become a menace to the public health
as well as being unsightly so near the water supply.
What may be considered the most important purchase
of the shores of the lake is that of the land of the State
Hospital, comprising a frontage of upwards of 3,000 feet,
and for which the sum of $15,000 was paid, only $5,000 of
which appears in this year's accounts, the balance to be
paid by March 1, 1918. The completion of this purchase
gives the board control of 92% of the shore of the lake, and
we desire to thank the Trustees of State Institutions for
the fair oflFer made the board for the sale of the property.
In June of this year the city council gave the board
authority to establish a sinking fund for payment of bonds
coming due in 1922, and it is proposed to devote any sur-
plus earnings to such fund. The sum of $15,000 has been
devoted to that purpose during the past year, as the report
will show.
It was with regret that the board accepted the resigna-
tion of Col. Solon A. Carter as president, which his fail-
ing health made necessary in the spring of the past year.
Colonel Carter had been a member of the board for twenty-
five years and its president for fifteen years. The remain-
ing members will miss his wise counsel.
In June, the state troops having been brought here and
the suppl.v of water at the camp grounds being found in-
sufficient, our superintendent was called upon to assist the
state officials in procuring an adequate water supply,
which he did, rendering a large amount of service without
compensation. The board was glad to have him give all
assistance possible.
A new and modern spillway at the outlet of the lake has

been built and the improvements in the appearance of the
land about Forge Pond continued.

The lowest point reached during the year was on Decem-
ber 31, being 181.60; the highest was on April 4 and was
185.75 ; mean height for the year was 183.81, which was .34
foot lower than the mean height for 1916. "Water was run-
ning over the overflow 50 days during the year.
Total amount of water used by the city for the year as
shown by the Venturi meter was 902,600,000 gallons ; aver-
age per day, 2,445,400; percentage pumped, 31.1%.
There has been but a very small amount of new con-
struction in the distribution system, there having been but
eight services laid to new houses and these were on streets
having pipe lines of ample size to meet any requirements
that might be made upon them.
WATER DEPARTMENT. 181
We have rebuilt the overflow at Penaeook Lake with
cement concrete, replacing the one laid with tar concrete
in 1898 which had become badly in need of repairs. It is
hoped that this one will prove durable and last indefinitely.
In the latter part of July when the National Guard was
called into service, this department was requested by Gov-
ernor Keyes and Adjutant-General Howard to assist in se-
• curing a supply of water for the camp. As the 2-inch
pipe at present supplying the old grounds was not large
enough and the expense of laying a larger main from the
city to the new camp was greater than \\'ould be warranted,
the state developed a new supply and was very fortunate
in securing one from a spring near the Soucook River,
flowing 50 gallons per minute, which proved ample for all
needs.
A well was built at the spring, 12 feet square and 6 feet
deep ; sides and bottom planked and braced ; a pump house
was constructed and an electrically-driven horizontal du-
plex pump installed. From this pump, the water was
forced into two 12,000-gallon tanks and then piped around
the grounds.
The work was done under the supervision of this depart-
ment and we loaned the state 2,145 feet of 6-inch pipe which
will be replaced this April.
On account of the scarcity of labor and high prices of
all materials, I would recommend that no new construc-
tion work on our distribution system be undertaken in
1918 unless absolutely necessary.
Respectfully submitted,
PERCY R. SANDERS,
Superintendent.

EEPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
To the Board of Aldermen:

nance, I herewith submit for your consideration the report
of the Fire Department for the year 1917.
Tlie department responded to 30 bell alarms and 261
still alarms.
In addition, three fires occurred, entailing loss, for which
no alarms were given, making a total of 294 for the year.

This report will be found to contain statements in detail
embracing the amount of expenditures, a complete roll of
the department with residence and occupation of each mem-
ber, a record of all fires and alarms which have occurred
during the year and the causes thereof as nearly as could
be ascertained, with the names of the owners or occupants
and the value, loss, insurance, and insurance recovered in
each case.
But one dangerous fire occurred during the year, that at
the Concord Lumber Company plant March 27.
On July 13, Lieut. Charles G. Pinkham, of Combination
FIRE DEPARTMENT. 211
1, died. In his death the community and the department
met witli a distinct loss. He was a good citizen, a good
fireman and genial companion, and his loss was sincerely
mourned. The i:)oliey of motorizing the apparatus was pur-
sued to the extent of purchasing one Ahrens-Fox 750-gal-
lon combination pump and hose, one Abbot & DoAvning
combination double tank chemical and hose. A contract
was also signed for one Abbot & Downing combination sin-
gle tank chemical and hose which has not as yet been de-
livered, the company, however, loaning a car during the
interim. One thousand feet of hose was added to the com-
plement on hand. As very little hose was condemned the
purchase of more can be safely omitted during the coming
year and the amount saved devoted to the purchase of tires,
of which one piece of motor apparatus is in need. Seven
horses were sold during the year and two purchased.
The apparatus is in good condition, Combination 1 hav-
ing been thoroughly overhauled and repaired.
The tire alarm systems of the precinct and Penacook are
in good condition. One box was added to the Penacook
system.
The duties incumbent upon the undersigned in the line
of inspection of wires and buildings have been performed.
The abnormal figure demanded for forage at present
adds one more reason to the many already existing why
motor-driven apparatus is preferable to horse-drawn.
Respectfully submitted,
W. C. GREEN,
Chief Engineer.

PUBLIC LIBRARY.
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES.
To the Board of Mayor and Aldermen of the City of
Concord:
The trustees of the Public Library herewith transmit
the annual report of the librarian, showing in a general
way what has been accomplished during the past year.
At the last annual meeting of the trustees a vote was
passed requesting an appropriation for the ensuing year
equal to that of last year ($5,885). As the salaries of
the four assistants were increased to nearly three hun-
dred dollars in the aggregate, and as the usual expenses
of maintaining the library cannot be substantially de-
creased without endangering its efficiency, the appropria-
tion asked for is deemed to be as small as is consistent
with a reasonable economy in the administration of the
library.
REUBEN E. WALKER,
President of Board of Trustees.
Concord, N. H., February 12, 1918.
REPORT OF THE CITY LIBRARIAN FOR 1917.
To the Board of Trustees of tJie Concord Public Library:
Gentlemen : This year has led everybody to use a new
measuring stick. We have lived in an atmosphere of such
momentous events that the doings of a small institution
have, rightfully, come to look^ — small. Yet though the
facts about the library may not be imprCvSsive, this is the
time to state them.
The war has had the effect of lessening desk circulation ;
ours has fallen off 2,300 and reached only 85,830 during
1917. This decrease was to be expected, for those who
used to read voraciously are busy, women are working for
the Red Cross, girls are knitting and men have been called
to the colors. The reference room also has had less cus-
tom, 5,164 inquiries being made there as against 6,752 in
the previous twelve months ; 660 new borrowers have ap-
plied ; the usual number is a hundred more than that.
The activities of the library have, however, not been
feAver than heretofore; they have merely been different.
Like all librarians throughout the country, we have packed
for soldiers' camps many boxes filled with books readily
contributed by citizens. "We have displayed posters and
distributed pamphlets of those government departments
which are trying so hard to develop in our nation traits
required by present exigencies. We have taken part in
the campaign, which resulted most creditably in Concord,
for raising money to enable the American Library Associa-
tion to build and maintain libraries in all the cantonments.
We liave felt as if we could well abandon many of our old
ways and most of our dead books, and rest the library's
right to exist upon it^ ability to make people see
straighter.
252 CITY OF CONCORD.
Our purchases have been pertinent to the times, espe-
cially in the live and rapidly growing collection of war
books which we have placed where the public enjoys free
and frequent access to them; even the books in French on
the Avar have been snapped up at once. The accession
record for the year runs :
86 duplicate volumes ;
65 bindery volumes;
128 replacements ;
671 new publications ;
making a total of 950 volumes.
There is a memorandum of 298 volumes removed from
the shelves in 1917, but in the ''drives" when I have
thrown away outgrown non-fiction and the ephemeral fic-
tion of yester-year, made consignments to the basement and
other rearrangements, I may have lost exact count of dis-
cards, and a new inventory will be needed to determine
whether my figure of 30,832 volumes on our shelves is cor-
rect. At the Millville Orphans' Home we had a deposit of
fifty books when the fire occurred there last October, but
the books were not destroyed.
To our Concord collection Mr. Montgomery Eollins has
contributed his story, "The A^illage Pest." We are now on
volume four of the scrap-books we are filling with the let-
ters of Mr. Will Cressy. The reference room has been
given by Mrs. William G. Robertson, in memory of her
husband, a set of "The International Librar}^ of Famous
Literature. ' '
We have always bought a good supply of fiction, provid-
ing it more amply than many a larger library; and this
custom comes in well now, when bright and cheery reading
is the due of the men and women who are under an anxious
strain. We can offer to our customers the soldier-poets
and the statesmen, but on principle we buy also books of
kindly humor and diverting plot.' With the interest on the
Cogswell fund, given for the purchase of works of biogra-
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 253
pliy, geography, history and science, and on the Hazeltine-
Ela fund, given for ''high-class literature," we have had
the means to make some excellent additions. The latest
edition of The New International Encyclopedia, Miss
Brown, the reference librarian, reports has already proved
a blessing. The set of Luther Burbank's "Methods and
Discoveries ' ' has such a wealth of colored illustrations that
when an important grange meeting was held in town, we
took the twelve volumes to show the members present. The
season has been rich in notable biographies, and we have
bought those of Keats, Audubon, John Fiske, Edward
Everett Hale, Richard Harding Davis, "The Little Grand-
mother of the Russian Revolution," &c., &c.
I had a thrill of literary delight when I took up our local
paper and read tliat the Atlantic Monthly was soon to be
printed in Concord. Inquiry at the Rumford Printing
Company brought out the fact that that firm is already
issuing the Yale Review, Smith College, Welleslcy and 3It.
Holyoke Quarterlies, The House Beautiful, The American
Journal of Archaeology , The Annals of the American Acad-
emy of Political and Social Science, &c. It is not an af-
fectation but a genuine feeling with me that the public
library in the city which contains sucli a publishing house
ouglit to see to it that its own library rank does not become
low.
There has ])een vouchsafed in 1917 the privilege dear to
librarians of seeing authors. Baroness Huard, Countess
Turczynowicz, Major Ian Hay Beith and Capt. Louis
Keene have spoken to Concord audiences which had been
eagerly reading their books of war experiences. Janet
McKenzie Hill has come and demonstrated that she can
cook as well as compile cook-books. Mr. A. T. Dudley, a
favorite writer for boys, spoke at a neighborhood library
meeting we held in October. The mention of Mr. Dudley,
who is secretary of the new New Hampshire Library Com-
mission, leads me to say it is already evident that through
this l)oard the libraries in the state will be helped and will
in turn become more helpful.
254 CITY OF CONCORD.
In August, upon the death of Mr. Samuel C. Eastman,
this library was, by his will, given some of his books and
some shares of stock and was made residuary legatee to
one-fourth of his estate. Later on we shall know to what
sum of money this entitles us, but we need not Avait till
then to acknowledge his kind and generous thought for
this institution. I can testify, though, that any bequest
of appreciable amount could not be spent suitably upon
the library as now housed, but should be directed toward
the providing of ampler quarters. There does not remain
now mucli "weeding" to do and we buy about 1,000 vol-
umes annually, therefore it can be seen that the shelving
problem is becoming serious; it seems to me inevitable
that we shall have to floor over the space above the cata-
logue table and thus gain room for stacking, even though
the interior appearance of the building and its ventilation
suffer thereby.
The presence of a policeman on duty recent Sundays
has remedied the disorder which is always sure to arise
through the winter months on Sunday afternoons when
gangs of boys resort to the library, not to read, but to make
trouble for the attendant in charge. When fifty-two per-
sons are in, and only thirty-five can be seated, the dis-
turbance of adults by uneasy youngsters can be prevented
only by the arm of the law.
The librarian has talked to some schoolrooms and clubs
about new books, feeling this a legitimate part of her duty,
in that it makes her hearers realize that a public library
has wonderfully interesting additions which are not novels
and that it keeps abreast of masculine needs, buying works
on radio-telegraphy or on Christian socialism, for instance,
as soon as they are off the press. In the hope of brighten-
ing the winter and of furthering the usefulness of the li-
brary, I had thought to have a morning story-hour again
for children, and to petition that the Shakespeare room be
used occasionally for civic work in urgent causes; but the
fuel situation has obliged us to heat less space and for
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 255
fewer hours than ordinarily, and some projects must be
postponed. But the library shall not stand still (even
though in this changing world it might be a relief to feel
that some institutions remain the same), for while an ark
is a good place for safety, to be down in the turbulent
waters chasing something which needs to be chased is what
we prefer.
Respectfully submitted,
GRACE BLANCHARD,

Some surveys were made for the superintendent of the
works, near the head of Penacook Lake, plans made and
turned over to him.
A complete set of plans sliowing the pipe-lines and ap-
purtenances are nearly completed and ready for delivery.
Fire Department.
Plans and specifications were made for changes in the
Ward One station to provide quarters for the new appara-
tus to be placed therein. The floor under the old appara-
tus room in this station righted and made secvire for any
machine likely to be located there.
The floor of the Alert Hose house was put in shape for
new apparatus of greater weight than the old hose wagon
stationed there in years past.
The plans showing the location of all the fire-alarm boxes
and public hydrants have been corrected to date and cop-
ies of them delivered to the chief of the department.
Building Petitions.
In company with the chief of the fire department twenty-
two hearings have been attended on petitions for new build-
ings or additions to old ones within the fire precinct.
All petitions have been granted and returns made as
required by ordinance.
Cemeteries.
We have re-laid out portions of Woodlawn Cemetery,
Pine Grove Cemetery and Maple Grove Cemetery during
the past season. Have made plans for proposed changes
in the tomb at Woodlawn Cemetery and turned them over
to the committee having this cemetery in charge.
We have been trying for several years to get a topograph-
ical survev of the "Bradlev" addition to Blossom Hill
258 CITY OF CONCORD.
Cemetery. The past season we were able to do the neces-
sary field work, have plotted this section and have two
plans for future development well under way. It is not
expected that this portion of the cemetery can be devel-
oped, as a whole, at one time, but any work done in this
section of the enclosure will have to be started with some
definite plan in view as to permanent improvement, owing
to the contour of the land and the large gravel pit, at its
southeasterly corner, excavated by the city some years ago
while the land was in the hands of private parties.
This pit and the ravine can be filled, to a certain height,
with ashes or any clean non-decaying waste material, at a
nominal cost to the city, much cheaper than by any other
method, leaving the earth to be moved from many places
therein to some point on the lot where it can be profitably
used to bring the land into the market for burial pur-
poses. There is not sufficient material on the lot to prop-
erly grade it without filling material from other sources,
and the scarcity of good dumping places for ashes and
other suitable waste materials makes this available spot of
value to the city for this purpose.
A practical working layout can be made and a beautiful
addition to this cemetery secured at a reasonable expense,
and if conservatively handled provide funds for the future
care of the cemetery when it becomes filled.
Two new blocks have been graded and wnll be ready for
lotting next spring.
The building of the culvert in the northw^esterly section
of the enclosure has progressed so far as to bring two more
desirable blocks into condition for final grading.
Plans for a proposed layout of the entire northwesterly
portion of Blossom Hill Cemetery have been made and
turned over to the superintendent.
Sur^^eys were made for the proposed fence and retain-
ing wall on the Bradley Street side of the Old North Ceme-
tery.
The deed book of Blossom Hill Cemetery has been
brought up to date.

Assessors' Maps.
Practically no field work was done for these maps during
the past season, but the property transfers have been kept
up to date from the monthly statements furnished us by
the register of deeds.
The annual lists of real estate owners were prepared and
turned over to the board of assessors.
Miscellaneous.
The heating plants at the Ward One police station and
at the city station on Warren Street were too small for the
duty required of them. The heating surfaces were com-
puted and new boilers of sufficient capacity to care for the
radiating surfaces attached were installed by the committee
on lands and buildings.
Information to private individuals regarding street lines,
grades, etc., and the ownership of property within the city
limits has been given so far as our records covered their
requirements.
The employees of this department during the year were
as follows:
Fred W. Lang, principal assistant, Orion H. Hardy,
transitman, and Carroll D. Hardy, rodman, whose services
have been of value to the city in their respective positions.
For the interest taken in and the many courtesies shown
this department, by your board, I wish to express my ap-
preciation.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC
WORKS.
REPORT OF THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
To the Board of Puhlic Works:
Gentlemen : In submitting- the annual report of the
highway department for 1917, I must say that most of the
work this year was along the line of general repairing.
Early in the springy the work of plowing gardens was
placed under this department and it was necessary to
give so much time to that work that the usual spring
repairs on the highways were delayed and neglected. It
is easy to see why the work was delayed when you con-
sider that the work of plowing gardens covered a period
from April 24th to June 9th and that during that time
from eleven to fifteen teams were employed in plowing
and harrowing the 1,070 gardens it cost the city $2,457.63
to do. While there may be no question as to the advis-
ability of the city doing the work there should be some
changes made in the system and free plowing given only
to those who cannot afford to hire the work done and
those able to pay should be charged a reasonable amount
for the same. Furthermore, there should be a limit to
the time for making application for plowing. Last year
the plowing in one section of the city would be completed
only to be followed in a day or two by more orders, which
made it necessary to go all over the same section again,
causing delay and expense and hindering any plans that
the department might make for carrying on the work. A
time limit for making application for plowing should be
insisted on if plowing is done by the city another season.
By the time that the plowing and the usual spring work
on the highways was completed the shortage of labor was
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS. 265
apparent and it was impossible to find suitable labor to
do any great amount of permanent work, and transporta-
tion difficulties further hindered construction work. It
Avas impossible to get trap rock and there was delay in
obtaining other road materials. It is more important to
keep in good repair those streets where permanent im-
provements have been made than to build new ones, and
I would again recommend, as I did in my report for 1916,
that more be appropriated for general maintenance.
The permanent improvements for which appropriations
were made and on which work was not undertaken were
Washington Street in Penacook, South Street, South
Main Street, Aubvirn Street and Central state highway,
and I think we should do the work on those streets the
coming summer.
Macadam was put in on East Penacook Street, South
State from Monroe to Perley, North State on the east
side from Blossom Hill Cemetery to Penacook Street, and
the east side of North Main Street from Park to Center
was concreted. As usual, nearly all the macadam was re-
surfaced and the state paid one-half of the expense on
the trunk lines.
No great amount of work was done on bridges except-
ing that the Loudon bridge was re-planked. Several of
the bridges need painting badly.
This year the department continued putting up new
street signs and have succeeded in getting a good part of
the streets properly marked.
About the same amount of work was done on concrete
walks and catch basins as in other years.
In the fall of 1916 some fifty trees were set out and
nearly all of them came out well in the spring. This
year we tried planting larger trees in the spring, about
one hundred being set out. Another season will show
which is the better time for planting and then more can
be put out where they are needed. The ordinance passed
during the year in regard to shade trees was a step in
the right direction, especially in regard to the planting
266 CITY OF CONCORD.
of poplar trees. While such trees grow very fast they
do not live long and are the cause of much trouble with
sewer and water pipes. The brown-tail moths were not
as numerous last summer, but the number of gypsy moth
nests is increasing rapidly each year and the}' are very
destructive. It is hard to find suitable climbers and it
may be necessary to do a great deal of the work against
this pest by spraying in the spring.
Oil was used for dust laying last summer, although but
one application was made on account of the heavy rains.
I would recommend that if it is possible to obtain the oil
that more of it be used next summer as it gives more
lasting and satisfactory results than water.
The precinct for the collection of garbage was again
extended last year and the amount to be collected has
also increased. It would be impossible to collect it sat-
isfactorily, since the territory has been enlarged so much,
without the -garbage truck.
The same recommendations that I made in my last re-
port still hold good in regard to equipment for the high-
way department, and I would also recommend two trucks
for use in the department, one for hauling gravel and
another for collecting street sweepings. The Velie truck
which was transferred from the police to the highway
department, and for which a new body was built, proved
that a truck of that type would be very useful for high-
way work. However, the motive power was no more sat-
isfactory to this department than it had been to the
police department and it was constantly in need of repair
and proved very expensive to keep in running order.
I appreciate the interest which the board has taken in
all the work of the highway de])artment and wish to thank
them for many courtesies received.
Respectfully submitted,

Superintendent of Streets.

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
REPORT OF THE CITY ENGINEER.
277
To the Board of Public Works:
The seventh annual report to your board, showing work
done under the supervision of the engineering department,
for your board, is herewith submitted:
Sewers.
The conii)laint of the previous year, shortage of labor,
was a great handicap during the season just passed. The
price set for labor by this board would not permit the em-
ployment of an,y number of ofificient laborers for the work
on hand, with higher prices being paid in nearby locali-
ties. If work is to be continued on the Beacon Street
sewer during the coming season prices for labor will have
to be materially increased to meet those paid in other
places.
The purchase or lease of machinery would enable us to
complete this much-needed line of sewer with wages ad-
vanced to meet present conditions.
Realizing conditions in the labor market, bids were asked
for constructing the Beacon Street sewer, which bids cov-
ered the laying of 1,554 feet of 33-inch segmental block,
the building of eight manholes and the re-connecting of all
houses and catch-basins now in the old sewer, also the care
of the sewage flowing at any and all times in the present
sewer during the replacement of the 12-inch pipe with the
33-inch one.
Bids were received as follows:

City to furnish the segmental block only. The contractor
to furnish all other materials, labor and machinery neces-
sary to complete the work at the time set in their respective
bids. Work to commence on or before May 15, 1917.
These bids gave prices from .$12,000 to .$17,000 for the
work, an amount from fifty to one hundred per cent, above
what the work should cost, and were rejected by your
board on the reconnnendation of your engineer.
We laid on this sewer, with a very small force of men, 211
feet of the segmental block, made connections with the
Washington Street sewers, built three manholes and got
into Beacon Street ready for the straightaway work. The
most difficult and trying portion of this line is now in, and
l)arring unforeseen obstructions the work should proceed
more rapidly with an adequate working force. The ledge
encountered near Beacon Street added about $300 to the
cost of the section laid. It is hardly probable that we shall
encounter more ledge on this line.
The conditions existing in the section of the city served
by this line of sewer are too well known to your board to
need any further comment from me.
Three breaks in the old cement pipe laid in Concord
Street in 1873, between South State Street and South Main
Street, revealed the fact that the old pipe was so nearly
worn out at the invert that renewal was necessary at once.
We accordingly replaced with 10-inch Akron pipe this line,
remade all house connections and cared for the tiow of
sewage in the old line during the relaying.
A new sewer was laid in Stevens Avenue and Kent
Street, to take the house sewage only, as the Pleasant
Street uiain has not sufficient capacity to carry surface
drainage. The surface water in this section can be easily
carried into the brook lying westerly from Stevens Avenue,
thus saving enlarged mains to the Merrimack River.
But seven permits for sewer connections were issued dur-
ing the year, but the report of the inspector gives nineteen
new entries. The use of the Y's provided for house con-

noctions, where they are installed, should be required and
the practice of making square entries to the small sewers
should be stopped.

HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
To the Board of Mayor and Aldermen:
We beg to submit the following report of the Board of
Health for the year endiug December 31, 1917.
The board was organized as follows :
Mayor Hobbs, ex-officio, chairman;
Dr. Charles H. Cook, secretary ;
Dr. Sibley Morrill, member.
Dr. Charles Duncan has again served as milk inspector
and Mr. Charles E. Palmer was sanitary officer.
Regular meetings were held at 4 p. m. on the first Mon-
day of each month.
Diphtheria.
You will note that there has been an unusually large
number of eases of diphtheria during the past year. Many
of these cases occurred in the families of people lacking the
means for the proper care of such cases at home.
This has necessitated the removal of many cases to the
Foster ward of the Margaret Pillsbury Hospital. This was
frequently done as much in the interest of the community
at large as in the interest of the patient. Many progres-
sive communities require that all cases of diphtheria, scar-
let fever, smallpox, and some other diseases shall be treated
in a hospital. It is thought that in this manner the com-
munity is best protected from the spread of the disease.
This is so without doubt where a ease occurs in a family of
small means with many children.
HEALTH DEPARTMENT. 285
Thus fairness to all concerned compels lis to send many
eases to the hospital in spite of the fact that by so doing
we are compelled to over-expend our appropriation.
During the height of the epidemic the city physician ex-
amined many children (1,279) and took 897 cultures in
searching for mild and carrier cases of the malady.
Most of this work was done in the schools. In the fall,
however, the whole Fosterville district was combed over, a
house to house canvass being made and cultures taken from
the nose and throats of all the children. This field work
disclosed many mild cases of diphtheria. Others were thus
shown to be "carriers" of the disease. These cases were
either quarantined or sent to hospital and as a result the
epidemic rapidly declined.
Many of the mild cases appeared to have the infection in
the nose only and were thought to have simple "colds" by
the parents. No physician was called and the children'
were allowed to go about and to school and church, thus
spreading the disease to others.
Had the type of disease been more severe an early diag-
nosis would have resulted in early isolation and served to
check the spread of the disease.
Antitoxin has been freely used both as a cure for those
already sick and as a preventative for those who have been
exposed. We believe it has saved many lives in Concord
during the past year.
We wish to express our approval of the state law provid-
ing for the free distribution of this marvelous product of
modern medical research.
Smallpox.
One case of smallpox was reported during the year.
This case was removed to the detention hospital on the
plains. Recovery was complete in four weeks and the pa-
tient was released from quarantine at the end of that
period.
The detention hospital or "pest house," as it was for-
286 CITY OF CONCORD.
nierly called, has without doubt served a very useful pur-
pose in the past. However, it is inaccessible. It is used so
infrequently and is closed for such long i)eriods of time that
it becomes damp and musty and is hardly suitable for use
in cold weather. It is so lonely as to be hardly safe for
occupancy by women. It has no modern conveniences and
is at best a makeshift.
We believe it should be disposed of and some other ar-
rangement made for caring for the very infrequent cases
of smallpox.
Water Supply.
Concord is very fortunate in having a plentiful supply
of pure water delivered to consumers largely by gravita-
tion. Penacook Lake, or Long Pond, is a perfect gem of a
body of water, fed largely by springs.
The catchment area is remarkably free from possible
sources of pollution.
The gradual acquisition of the land around the shore and
the reforestation of the same will serve to insure posterity
a copious and clean supply of water.
It may become advisable some time in the near future
to install a chlorination plant for the purpose of taking
care of any chaiwc pollution.
Milk Supply.
The report of the milk inspector is transmitted here-
with and made a part of this report. It is very important
that we have a plentiful supply of good clean milk. It is
of vital importance in the dietary of children. It has been
shown that milk contains certain j^rinciples very necessary
to the growth of the young.
It is therefore hoped that the high price of feeds and
scarcity of agricultural labor will not result in a material
lessening of the supply of this very important food.

Appropriation.
The appropriation for the Board of Health for the year
1917 was $3,472.23 or 15.78 cents per capita.
There was expended $3,944.29 or 17.9 cents per capita.
Fnniigation supplies have cost more; in fact all supplies
have cost more, but the main factor in accounting for the
excess amount expended is the increased cost of hospital
care for contagious diseases. Even so, Ave do not think
that the total amount expended will be thought excessive.
Surgeon Paul Preble, of the U. S. Public Health Serv-
ice, has lately summarized the expenditures of 330 cities
in the central and eastern United States for public health
work. It appears from his statistics that the annual aver-
age per capita expenditures for the 330 cities was 27.2
cents.
Tims our 17.9 cents will be seen to be within the average.
The report of the sanitary officer is appended and you
are referred to the tables in same for details of the depart-
ment activities.
In closing this report the Board of Health wishes to
record its appreciation of the long and faithful services of
Miss Helen O. Monier, who has for some years past served
as clerk in the office of the board but who is at present on
leave of absence due to illness. And we wish to express,
both as a board and as individuals, our sincere hope that
her (juest of health may speedily prove successful and that
we shall shortly welcome back our courteous, capable, and
faithful fellow-worker.

REPORT OF THE MILK INSPECTOR.
The examinations made by the milk inspector appear
in another part of the health department report.
The milk industry, as all others during these times, has
had its share of troubles. The great changes in the price
of grain and other supplies, such as liottles, caps, etc.,
have resulted in the higher price of milk to the consumer,
a price of twelve (12) cents being now generally charged,
although milk may be obtained at from ten to eleven
cents.
As happened last year, again this year many of the
routes have been sold and resold many times. These con-
stant changes increase the difficulties in keeping up equip-
ment to the required standards ; also, the Concord Milk-
men 's Association, because of these changes, has lost some
of its past ardor for organization and discussion of the
best interests of the business ; this does not mean, how-
ever, that there are not among them men of good ability
who could handle any situation in an emergency.
The supply of milk for the city, though below normal,
seems at the present time adequate. The scarcity of
sugar and the twelve (12) cent price has made a greater
market for the condensed and evaporated milk.
If under war conditions the price of milk increases
some new^ delivery plan might become an economic neces-
sity to keep the price within reach of the poor.
The present plan where each route crosses and inter-
laces every other route must mean a great loss of time
and money.
At this time the importance of milk to the children of
the poor should not be lost sight of. Milk is the last

food, under any condition, especially where there are
children in the family, that the poor should be forced to
curtail on, and if the city takes any action on food con-
servation and distribution, milk should be the very first
to receive attention.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES DUNCAN,
Milk Inspector.
REPORT OF THE SANITARY OFFICER.
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen .- I herewith submit the report of the sani-
tary officer for the year ending December 31, 1917, calling
your attention to the tables which show the work done by
this department.
Returns were made of 509 deaths for the year 1917, 42
more than in 1916. One hundred fifty-seven non-resi-
dents and 19 still-births were excluded from this number
in reckoning the death rate, which, based on the popula-
tion of 22,000, was 14.40 compared with 12.81 in 1916.
There were 231 deatlis at the six public institutions and
278 in the nine wards of the city. The bodies of 124
persons dying in other places were brought here to be in-
terred, and 191 bodies were removed from Concord to
other places for burial.
Samples of water w^ere analyzed by the state chemist
at different times during the year and found to be satis-
factory. In company w4th the superintendent of the
w^ater-works, I have made several inspections of the lake
shore and found conditions good.
Water tests were made of new plumbing and 138 per-
mits were issued during the year. Peppermint tests were
made of the old work whenever requests Avere received.
The inspection of dwelling houses and blocks has been
made thoroughly. This work has been made Avhere the
inspections were most needed, and also of all premises
complained of.
Inspections were made of nearly all the barber shops
in the city, which were found to be in good sanitary
condition.
In company with Dr. Duncan, T have made such in-
HEALTH DEPARTMENT. 291
spections of milk farms as time would permit, but with
the inspection of sewers, plumbing, nuisances and com-
plaints, the care of contagious diseases and the increasing
demand for fumigation, we have not been able to accom-
plish as much as should be done along this line, but during
the year we were able to inspect 82 farms and found them
to be in good condition.
The total number of cases of contagious diseases reported
was 610, with three deaths. This number was larger than in
previous years and necessitated a large amount of extra
work. There were 1,323 visits made to contagious disease
cases.
There were 138 eases of diphtheria reported, with three
deaths, the largest number ever reported in one year.
Medical inspections were made and cultures taken from
the throats of all the pupils in the schoolrooms where pu-
pils reported as having the disease had attended, and a
number of mild and unrecognized cases of the disease
were discovered. One case of smallpox occurred in May,
the patient contracting the disease in an adjoining state.
As soon as the same was discovered the patient was re-
moved to the detention hospital on the Plains, there re-
maining until complete recovery ; and in this connection
I would say that while our building there is inade com-
fortable for the summer use it is unfit for winter occu-
pancy. I therefore recommend that the city dispose of
this hospital and either arrange with the Margaret Pills-
bury Hospital or the purchase of some other suitable
building easy of access in the city proper.
In closing my report I wish to thank the members of
the Board of Health and the members of the city govern-
ment for their assistance during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES E. PAL^MER.

REPORT OF THE JOHN KIMBALL
PLAYGROUND.
The period of instruction and organized play on the John
Kimball Playground began with the last week in June and
continued through August. The girls' department was in
charge of Miss Mabel Durivage, while Mr. Harold Fraser
was instructor for the boys.
The activities of the playground were not confined to
play alone, as the patriotic young people who attended its
sessions so faithfully were also doing their "bit" for the
soldiers. Through the kindness of interested friends knit-
ting cotton and yarn were provided, and one hundred knit-
ted articles, as well as twenty-two ambulance pillows, were
turned in to the Red Cross by the children, who have also
made garments for themselves which were cut from rem-
nants obtained at the Red Cross headquarters.
It would have been impossible for the instructor to have
carried on this work had it not been for the volunteer
workers, composed of high school girls and young women
of the city, who so generously gave of their time and as-
sistance that the work planned might be accomplished.
Through the kindness of the grocers of the city over two
hundred children were given an automobile ride, which is
still one of the talked-of events of the summer.
During the past year the playground has been much im-
proved by the addition of one of the best tennis courts in
the city, as well as by a sand-box which has given much
pleasure to the little tots.
A gift of money from Mrs. Ayers, daughter of the
founder of the playground, has been used to provide
teeters. A generous supply of Victrola records from Mrs.
Harry Emmons has given much pleasure to the group who
302 CITY OF CONCORD.
congregated each afternoon to listen to the music and watch
the folk dancing.
A cement wading tank for the little ones who are too
young to go to the swimming pool is much needed, and it
is hoped that by another year one may be provided.
The average attendance during the summer was one hun-
dred and twenty-seven. The least number present any day,
sixty-five. The largest attendance, two hundred and one.
Under the leadership of Harold Fraser the boys took
several long hikes into the country. These, as well as the
swimming and athletics, did much toward their physical
development, for the John Kimball Playground stands for
"A trained mind in a sound body."

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE
SOUTH END PLAYGROUND.
To the Mayor and Board of Aldermen :
The committee on the South End playground respect-
fully submits the following report for the year 1917 :
The year's work has been carried on the same lines as
in previous years, a large part of our appropriation being
spent upon educational work. Special attention was given
the garden work and the results obtained were far beyond
our expectations. Our usual field day exhibition gave very
satisfactory evidence of the garden yield, as well as of the
handy work of the girls in embroidery, knitting and can-
ning. The mufflers and face cloths knitted were delivered
to the Red Cross.
Our appropriation of $500 has been spent as follows:
Permanent equipment, $107.08
Upkeep, supplies, etc., 208.92
Paid instructors, 169.65
$485.65
Unexpended balance, 14.35

REPORT OF PUBLIC BATHS.
Concord, N. H., October 1, 1917.
To His Honor the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen:
The summer of 1917 was a most successful season at the
public bath. The pool besides being a source of amuse-
ment for the boys and girls was made use of by the soldiers,
who were compelled to visit the bath at least twice a week,
special afternoons being assigned them.
The annual carnival was held at the close of the season,
prizes being awarded, donated by the merchants of the city.

REPORT OF THE CITY SOLICITOR.
Concord, N. H., February 19, 1918.
To ilic Board of Aldermen:
I desire to make the following report to the board of the
progress of litigation during the past year to which the city
has been a party.
Boston cO Maine Railroael v. Concord, a petition for the
abatement of taxes assessed upon personal prop'erty at the
railroad shops, has been fijially terminated. In my last
report I gave an outline of the points decided by the su-
preme court and stated that at that time the attorney-gen-
eral had intervened in behalf of the state. In the inter-
vention proceeding the supreme court held that the prop-
erty should have been taxed, but should have been included
in the general railroad valuation and taxed by the state.
However, the court held that the state was not in a position
to intervene and thus require the railroad to pay the tax
over to it. So for the year 1913 the city has reimbursed
the railroad. The tax was levied for the years 1914 and
1915 as well and collected by the city. No appeals were
taken in behalf of the railroad for those two years, so that
the city collected $6,291.60 for the year 1914, and $3,981.25
for the year 1915, making a total of $10,272.85 which the
city collected as a result of these proceedings. As the de-
cision of the court now stands the state itself will hereafter
collect the tax on this property.
Ward V. Concord at the time of my last report was pend-
ing in the superior court on a motion filed by me for con-
firmation of the master's report and dismissal of the peti-
tion. This motion to confirm and dismiss was granted by
the court and the city definitely won the Ward case.

308 CITY OF CONCORD.
Tilton V. Co))cord, a test case to determine whether the
city of Concord was liable for the support of certain pau-
pers living in Tilton, was before the supreme court at the
time of ray last report. The question was whether a city or
town is liable for the support of paupers for a period
greater than ten years from the time such people com-
menced to gain their settlement in such city or town. The
case was argued in the supreme court by me last spring
and the court handed down a decision in favor of Concord.
Concord Manufacturing Company v. Concord is a peti-
tion for an abatement of taxes on plaintiff's- mill, situated
in Ward 1. This case was referred to the tax commission
and I endeavored to get a hearing for a long time. After-
wards the case was returned to the superior court without
having been heard by the commission. Since that time
counsel for the petitioner have shown no desire for a trial.
My latest information with regard to the case is that there
is a likelihood that the petition will be withdrawn.
Hammer v. Concord is a petition for the abatement of
taxes filed at the October term of court and it has been
referred to the tax commission for hearing. Collins v.
Concord is a similar case and it has taken a similar course.
Hearings will probably be given in both cases within a
short time.
Acting under instructions from the board I have been
representing the city in the gas rate hearings. After a
preliminary investigation I made a report to this board
which is on file. After that I was present at various
meetings of the gas company and labor unions at the
Central Labor Union hall. Since then I have been pres-
ent at tw^o hearings given by the Public Service Commis-
sion and I have also, in the presence of labor union of-
ficials, gone over the records of the company. The in-
formation that I have been able to get as a result of these
hearings has not led me to change the opinion given in
the special report on the gas rate case given to this board.
I am still of the opinion that it is a bad time for the city,
REPORT OP CITY SOLICITOR. 309
state and gas company to expend some $20,000 — the esti-
mated cost of a rate case. There are undoubtedly some
things about the organization of the gas company which
need explanation, but according to the testimony at the
hearings, public service companies are finding it neces-
sary all over the country to raise rates. The raise is of
course but temporary and the Public Service Commission
assures us that with the return of normal conditions it
will make a thorough investigation of the local com-
pany. At the present time the commission states that its
investigation will be limited to the following inquiries :
(1) Is an increase in rates needed in order to assure the
utility an income reasonably approximating its income in
the last year before the war, (2) What increase in in-
come will result from the proposed increase in rates, and
(3) Is the method by which it is proposed to increase the
company's income fair as between the utility and its cus-
tomers and between the various classes of customers ?
The commission states that it will not investigate the
question whether before the war the company was earning
more than an adequate return.
In addition to the foregoing the usual routine business
has been attended to. During the legislature I represented
the city in various matters concerning trust funds and
water-works and co-operated with the other city officials
in opposition to a bill which would have removed a large
part of the powers of the city over its own water-works.
Respectfully submitted,
ALEXANDER MURCHIE,
Solicitor.
ASSESSORS' REPORT.
To the Taxpayers of the City of Concord:
The board of assessors submit to your consideration the
following facts and figures showing the valuation of the
city and its school districts and special precincts, with the
amount of taxes raised in each and returned to the tax col-
lector for collection.
The appeal of the Boston & Maine Railroad from the
taxation of materials which were to be used in the shops in
this city (the shops being taxed and not included in the
matter of appeal) was decided adversely to the city, and
the tax for the year 1913, with interest, amounting to
$7,373.55, has been repaid to tlie Boston & Maine Railroad.
No appeal was taken by the Boston & Maine Railroad on
the question of the taxation of said materials for the two
succeeding years, and the taxes for the years 1914 and
1915, amounting to .$10,482.50, have been paid and are re-
tained by the city of Concord.
In the following report is a table of the amount raised
for the years from 1907 to the present time, which shows
the increased amount spent by the city and the reason for
an increased tax.

REPORT OF THE CITY MARSHAL.
Concord, N. H., January 1, 1918.
To His Honor the Mayor and Honorable Board of
Aldermen:
Gentlemen : I have the honor to submit to your hon-
orable board my ninth annual report of the police depart-
ment for the year ending December 31, 1917. I wish to
state that owing to the war many emergencies have arisen
that were not thought of when our appropriation was
made ; consequently our expenditures have been larger
than they would have been under ordinary conditions.

Recommendations.
I renew my recommendation that a suitable room be con-
structed for the detention of women and juveniles, and that
the old ward room be remodeled into a guard-room for the
officers.
I wish to thank His Honor, Mayor Nathaniel W. Hobbs,
and the Honorable Board of Aldermen for their courteous
treatment and support. I desire to thank His Honor' Judge
Clark, City Solicitor Alexander Murchie, County Solicitor
W. W. Thayer, Clerk of the Court John Stanley, and all
others who have assisted this department during the year.
To the officers of the department, I extend my appreciation
for their hearty co-operation and faithfulness.
Respectfully submitted,
GEORGE A. S. KIMBALL,
Citij Marshal.
REPORT OF THE MUNICIPAL COURT.
To His Honor the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen:
I am transmitting herewith a statement of the receipts
and expenditures of the municipal court for the year end-
ing December 31, 1917, the same being prepared by Mrs.
Henrietta P. Stanley, clerk pro tern of the court. An item-
ized monthly statement of the financial transactions of the
court has been filed both with the city clerk and city treas-
urer, and may be seen at either of these offices, or at the
office of the justice of the municipal court, by any inter-
ested citizen.
Non-Support.
The amount of money received and expended in non-
support and kindred matters shows an increase over any
previous year and the general result appears to justify
the expenditure of time and labor on the part of the court
in handling these cases in the manner adopted several
years ago. The records of the court do not, hoAvever, show
the entire results along this line, as in some cases money
ordered to be paid has been handled by some party directly
interested instead of being paid into court.
The following is a statement of the cash which has actu-
ally passed through the court in these matters:

officer at the beginning of the year, to succeed Harry F.
Lake, resigned, has continued in that position. John W.
Stanley, who began his term of service as clerk of court at
the same time, was called to the colors November 3. Be-
lieving that the burdens of the war should be made to fall
as lightly as possible upon those required to make such
sacrifices, Mr. Stanley was granted a leave of absence from
his duties, and his wife, Mrs. Henrietta P. Stanley, was
appointed clerk pro tern. Mrs. Stanlej^ has proven a faith-

REPORT OF THE CEMETERY COMMIS-
SIONERS.
To tlic Mayor and Board of Aldermen:
Blossom Hill Cemetery.
The appropriation, income from trust and permanent
funds, collect"ions, one-half sale of lots and annual care of
lots have given a total of .$7,416, the income for the year.
The expenses, pay-rolls and supplies have been $9,858.91,
leaving a deficit of $2,442.91.
Two new blocks have been graded, and about 250 feet of
covered water-course has been finished to take care of the
large flow of water in the spring, also to drain a section
where burials have been made.
The whole cemetery has been finely cared for and is in
excellent condition.
A larger appropriation is much needed as the work in-
creases every year, as there is more surface to be kept in
good condition during the season.
The burials have been 196, the chapel used 17 times.
The Old North Cemetery
has never been in better condition than the last year. The
income has been from appropriations, collections, income
from trust and permanent funds, $810.53. The expenses
have been $782.09, leaving a surplus of $28.44. Five lots
have been put under perpetual care. The condition of the
fence grows worse every year, and if a small appropriation
could be made this year, that a beginning could be made
looking towards its completion in a few years, it would be
a wise investment.

No new features, with the exception of a few swings and
small athletic apparatus, have been added to the parks in
the past year. The dumping of ashes has been continued
on the ball ground and by another season the grade should
be well established.
We are not able to make extensive improvements, as the
maintenance of the parks in their present condition seems
to absorb all of the appropriation.
The West Garden, given the city by the late Hon. Frank
W. Rollins, is a fine addition to our park system, and we
hope the remodeling can be accomplished the coming sea-
son, as we have a gift of $900 from his estate for this pur-
pose.
