Auditor's Report
To the Board of Selectmen of the Town of Moultonboro^
New Hampshire:
In accordance with your request we have performed
an examination and audit of the financial affairs of the town
of Moultonboro (exclusive of the Moultonboro School Dis-
trict) for the calendar year 1963. Our examination was made
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
and, accordingly, included such audit procedures as we con-
sidered necessary under the circumstances.
In our opinion the statement of current working assets
and liabilities as reflected in the annual report of the town
of Moultonboro, as at December 31, 1963, (exclusive of the
Moultonboro School District) and the statement of receipts
and disbursements of the Town of Moultonboro, (exclusive
of the Moultonboro School District) and the results of bud-
get operations for the year 1963, present fairly the financial
position as at December 31, 1963, and the result of budgetary
operations for the year then ended in conformity with gen-
erally accepted accounting principles, applicable to govern-
mental operations in New Hampshire, applied on a basis
consistent with that of the prior year.
Respectfully submitted,
DANA S. BEANE, Jr., C. P. A.

Librarian's Report
The town of Moultonboro celebrated its Bicentennial —
from July 8-10. Part of the program was listed as open
house at the library. During Saturday afternoon folks were
free to inspect the library and many did so.
During the past year the following books have been
added to the Memorial Shelf. They are Birds of America in
memory of David King; Pepperidge Farm Cookbook in
memory of Mrs. "Jeppie" Davisson — both from Friends.
The W. S. C. S. gave the following books: John Wesley in
memory of Mrs. Nettie Taylor; Upon this Rock in memory
of Mrs. Ruth Covert; and David in memory of Mrs. Attie
Berry. Memorial gifts are always welcomed and may be
made to the library at any time.
In April, the school library branch will have been in
effect for five years and is still as popular and as useful
for both pleasure reading and supplementary reference
work as when started in 1959. Isabelle Behr, Hazel Dale and
Margaret Lamprey are in attendance on Thursday mornings.
This past summer, Miss Virginia Price assisted the
librarian as the circulation increases in the summer months
in proportion to Moultonboro's increase in population. Many
of the summer folks have been very generous in giving books
and donations to the library. I would especially like to men-
tion Mrs. Emma Nash, who gave a fine set of Shakespeare,
which we needed, and many science text books.
The reports received from the N. H. State Library for
1962 indicate that Moultonboro is fourth in the state in
per capita circulation with 21.3 books per person and an
expenditure of $4.42 per person.

Forest Fire Warden's Report
During the past year New Hampshire faced the great-
est fire threat to its woodlands in more than sixty years.
The continued drought brought home to our citizens, as
never before, the potential threat of destructive fires to
their beautiful and valuable forests, homes and livelihood.
In true American tradition of meeting a common threat by
volunteer effort, this fire danger was minimized by active
prevention, patrol and a relinquishing of personal rights
for the common good. It was the greatest demonstration of
public cooperation ever experienced by those responsible
for local and state fire control. The ready forces of volunteer
fire servics kept the losses low. For their effort and public
response the general fire service expresses its heartfelt
thanks for a job well done.
Prevention however, is not just an activity for the bad
fire years. It must be practiced until it becomes a part of our
public conscience — a habit. Just plain carelessness with fire
causes too many of our fires.
The following practices and suggestions will help:
1. Always have a permit for outdoor burning and burn
within the terms of the permit and in a safe place.
Burn late in the afternoon when the wind is down or
on rainy or damp days. Check your fire and if winds
develop extinguish it promptly.
2. Carry your rubbish to the public dump — it's safer.
A neglected backyard incinerator causes many fires.
3. Never discard lighted cigarette or match. Make this
a year round habit regardless of the safety of your
surroundings.
4. Children caused fires are now a major concern. Keep
matches away from them and teach them to respect
fire and not make it a subject of play.
Let's all join with "Smokey the Bear" and Keep New
Hampshire Green" and growing in 1964.

The Special School District meeting was called to order
by Clyde B. Foss, Moderator, at two o'clock in the after-
noon on March 2, 1963.
The moderator stated that due to the clerk's absence
from the state the first order of business would be the
election of a clerk pro tempore.
Mr. Gilbert Wiggins moved that a clerk pro tempore
be elected as required by RSA 197:20, that nominations
for clerk pro tempore be from the floor and that the elec-
tion of said clerk pro tempore be by secret written ballot.
The motion was seconded by Gordon Foss. On voice vote
the vote was in the negative and the moderator declared
that the motion did not carry.
Mr. Stewart Lamprey moved that the clerk pro tempore
be nominated and elected from the floor. This motion was
duly seconded. The moderator called for discussion on the
motion. There being no discussion the meeting proceeded
to a voice vote. The voice vote was in the affirmative and

The moderator declared that Dortha Wiggins had been

oath of office to Mrs. Wiggins as clerk pro tempore.
The moderator then read the warrant for the meeting
in its entirety and also read the certificate of the school
board as to the posting of the warrant in public places.
The moderator then reread Article #1 of the warrant.
Mr. Gilbert Wiggins offered the following resolution
and moved its adoption.
Resolved: That the Moultonboro School District
petition the State Board of Education to become a
member of a Cooperative School District which majr
include, in addition to this district, the following:
Alton, Brookfield, Effingham, New Durham, Ossipee,
Tuftonboro, Wakefield and Wolfeboro.
The resolution was seconded by Gordon Foss.
Gordon Foss moved that the voting on Article #1 be
by printed "Yes" and "No" ballot and that the polls remain
open for this purpose until six o'clock this afternoon. This
motion was duly seconded by several persons.
On a voice vote the vote was in the affirmative and
the moderator declared that the motion by Gordon Foss had
carried.
The moderator then called for discussion on the resolu-
tion offered by Mr. Wiggins. A lengthy discussion ensued.
Mr. William Visser was recognized by the chair. Mr. Visser
asked the voters to think of the future of the pupils and
the town. He first pointed out that transportation was more
than a question of just time and distance. He felt that the
costs of transporting pupils to Wolfeboro were uncertain.
He also discussed the problems of feeder routes to the main
bus route.
Mr. Visser then compared the estimated enrollment of
the proposed Governor Wentworth School to that of Inter-
Lakes. He stated that the 1000 enrollment figured earlier
for Governor Wentworth School was now estimated at 733
while Inter-Lakes figured an enrollment of 546 pupils. He
said that if Moultonboro ioined with Inter-Lakes the num-
64
ber of pupils enrolled in the two schools would level off
so that there would be little difference between the two.
Mrs. Vera Rockefeller being recognized by the chair
wished to thank Mr. David Hammond for the excellent
written report of the comparison of the proposed schools
which he had mailed to the citizens of Moultonboro.
Mrs. Cora Roth being recognized by the chair spoke
on distance and time required by her son to travel to Inter-
Lakes. She questioned the enrollment figures suggested
previously by Mr. Visser.
Mr. Harold Edwards moved that the discussion be
closed and that the meeting proceed to vote. The motion
was seconded. Many "No's" were heard from the audience.
The moderator then recognized Mr. Stewart Lamprey on
a point of inquiry. Mr. Lamprey inquired as to what would
happen to the pupils from Moultonboro during 1963.
Mr. Visser answered by stating that he wished we had
the answers. He further stated that this problem had been
anticipated but not resolved and had been an increasingly
acute problem since both Laconia High School and Brewster
Academy had refused to accept any more Moultonboro
tuition pupils. He then added that Brewster Academy did
not definitely refuse to take Moultonboro pupils but gave
no assurance that they would.
Mr. Harold Edwards attempted to get his motion that
the discussion be closed and that the voting begin, voted
upon but the moderator ruled that Mr. Lamprey had the
floor. Mr. Lamprey's remarks continued. Mr. Lamprey
yielded the floor to Messrs. Edward Dufault and Roger
Person each of whom made brief remarks.
Mr. Richard Vappi, being recognized by the chair, asked
Mr. Visser if the pupils would be able to go to school if the
vote were favorable to Wolfeboro. He was assured by Mr.
Visser that provisions would be made to accommodate the
pupils.
Mr. Arthur Solomon suggested that the debates be
limited to two minutes but no motion was made.
Mr. Nighswander, counsel for the Moultonboro School
Board, stated that the moderator could decide how long
the discussions could be and no vote was taken.
Mrs. Chester Wilder expressed a hope that there would
be no unpleasantness after the meeting.
The moderator then called for a vote on the motion
of Mr. Harold Edwards that the discussion close and that
65
the voting begin. On a voice vote, the vote was in the af-
firmative and the moderator declared that Mr. Edwards'
motion had carried.
The moderator then stated that there was no legal re-
quirement that the checklist be used at the meeting.
The moderator then read to the meeting the provisions
of RSA 197:11 and RSA 197:13 relative to the qualifications
of voters and the penalties for wrongful voting. There was
no request that the checklist be used.
The moderator declared the polls open and the meeting
proceeded to vote on Article #1 by secret "Yes" and "No"
ballot.
At 5:55 o'clock in the afternoon the moderator warned
that the polls would close in five minutes. At 6:00 o'clock
in the afternoon the moderator asked if all those then
present had voted. No one indicated that he had not voted
and the polls were duly closed by the moderator.
The moderator and the school board appointed Theodora
Woodman, Mary Smith, Maurice White and Nelson Lambert
as inspectors to assist the moderator, and clerk pro tempore
in counting the votes. After the ballots were counted the
moderator announced the results of the vote on the resolu-
tion for Article #1 offered by Mr. Gilbert Wiggins as
follows :
Total votes cast 462
Number of votes needed to adopt resolution 232
Number of "Yes" votes 241
Number of "No" votes 221
The moderator announced that since more than a majority
of the qualified voters present and voting had voted in the
affirmative the resolution offered by Mr. Wiggins had
been adopted.
The meeting then recessed until eight o'clock in the
afternoon.
The meeting was again called to order by the moderator
at eight o'clock in the afternoon. The moderator then read
Article #2 of the warrant. Mr. Gordon Foss moved that
the district elect two representatives to serve with repre-
sentatives from the other school districts on an interim com-
mittee who shall prepare a financial budget for the pro-
posed Cooperative School District. The motion was duly
seconded by William Rathman. The moderator called for a
discussion on the motion. There being no discussion the
meeting proceeded to a voice vote. The vote was in the
affirmative and the moderator declared that the motion had
carried.
66
The moderator called for nominations for representa-
tives to serve on the interim committee. Mr. Richard Vappi
nominated Gilbert N. Wiggins and David E. Hammond as
two representatives to serve on the interim committee.
The nominations were seconded by Mr. Lawrence Porter.
The moderator asked if there were any further nominations.
After several moments of silence Mr. Lawrence Porter
moved that the nominations close. This motion was duly
seconded.
The moderator called for a discussion on the motion.
There being no discussion the meeting proceeded to a voice
vote which was in the affirmative and the moderator de-
clared that the motion had carried.
The moderator then called for a voice vote on the elec-
tion of the two nominees to serve on the interim committee.
The voice vote was unanimously in the affirmative. There
being no negative votes the moderator then declared that
David Hammond and Gilbert Wiggins had been duly elected
as representatives to serve on the interim committee.
The moderator then read Article #3 of the warrant.
No further business was brought before the meeting.
Mr. Lawrence Porter moved that the meeting be ad-
journed. The motion to adjourn was seconded by several
people. On a voice vote the motion to adjourn was adopted
and the moderator declared the meeting adjourned at 8:10

Moultonboro School District Meeting
Moultonboro, N. H.
April 16, 1963
The School District Meeting was called to order by the
Moderator, Maurice B. White, on April 16, 1963 at the
Moultonboro Central School Auditorium.
The Moderator read the warrant, declared the polls open,
and voting began with the polls to remain open until 9:00
P.M.
The Moderator called the business meeting to order at
8:00 P. M. Mr. White re-read the warrant.
On Article 2 it was voted to appoint the salaries of the
School Board and Attendance Officer and fix the compensa-
tion of all other officers and agents as printed in the pro-
posed budget 1963-64 of the Moultonboro School District
as printed, copies of which were available for all present.
It was voted to accept the reports of Agents, Auditors,
Committees, and officers chosen as printed in the school
report.
On Article 4 "To see what action the District will take
relative to authorizing the School Board to negotiate a
contract with another District for the education of the
secondary pupils for the year 1963-64", an explanation was
given by Mr. William Visser, Chairman of the School Board.
He said that in their efforts to make arrangements for
schooling of our high school students until the construction
of the new cooperative school, they had contacted Inter-
Lakes, Plymouth, Tilton-Northfield, Bristol, Franklin, La-
conia, Ashland, Conway and Brewster to see if our stu-
dents might be accepted on a tuition basis next year. Mr.
Visser reported that, considering the qualifications, curri-
culm, and transportation, Plymouth was the logical choice.
The Plymouth School Board had voted to accept the Moulton-
boro students on a tuition basis of $430 per student. On
motion of Leonard Plaisted, seconded by Gordon Foss, it
was voted to negotiate a contract with the Plymouth School
District.
Article 5 of the warrant, following an explanation of
the proposed budget by the School Board, was then voted
upon. It was voted unanimously to raise the sum of
$119,379.12 for the ensuing year for the support of schools.
68
It was a vote in the affirmative to authorize the School
Board to make application for and to accept, on behalf of
the District, any or all grants or offers for educational
purposes which may now or hereafter be forthcoming from
the State of New Hampshire and/or United States.
Mr. Gilbert Wiggins, Interim Board Member, reported
on the Board's work in Wolfeboro and urged attendance
at the Organizational Meeting of the new Governor Went-
worth District at which time Moultonboro voters will elect
a regular member of that board. Mrs. Elizabeth Hammond
has filed for this position.
It was voted that the School Board be authorized to
appoint Agents or Committees whenever necessary.
At 9 :00 P. M. the Moderator inquired if all had voted
and then closed the polls.
The business meeting was adjourned at 9:35 P. M. and
the ballots counted with the following results:

Ossipee, Tuftonboro and Wolfeboro be organized to provide
for the educational needs and services of all elementary
and secondary school children and that its establishment
be effective as of July 1, 1964. The motion was seconded.
In the discussion which followed, Mr. Knox of Ossipee
wanted to know why grades one through six could not be
excluded from the Cooperative District. Mr. Potter of Effing-
ham brought up the question of what protection the indivi-
dual towns had in relation to action taken by the Cooper-
ative School Board. Mr. March of Tuftonboro raised the
question of whether the bills currently before the State
Legislature as recommended by the Interim Committee on
State Aid to Education would be retroactive. In each instance
an answer was given by Dr. Goodall in behalf of the Interim
Committee for the formation of a Cooperative School
District. The discussion having been concluded, each town

GILBERT N. WIGGINS
BEATRIX H. SOLOMON
Auditors
Report of Superintendent of Schools
To the School Board and Citizens of Moultonboro:
I respectfully submit my ninth annual report as your
Superintendent of Schools.
Staff
The opening of school in September noted only two
changes in the staff. Mr. Robert S. Prescott, a graduate of
Keene and Plymouth State Teachers College, replaced Mrs.
Marion Lindsey in the departmental set up in Grades Six
through Eight. Mrs. Clyde C. Brown, R. N., returned as
Nurse-Teacher after a years leave of absence.
Additions and Improvements
During the summer recess the walls in the Auditorium-
Gymnasium and corridor were painted by the Custodian.
The range in the school lunch program was replaced with
a larger one. A master clock system for ringing bells was
installed. The program of improvement of the grounds was
continued by adding fertilizer to the lawn and play area.
Cooperative School
At the Special School District on March 2, the District
voted in favor of petitioning the State Board of Education
to become a member of a Cooperative District to include the
following districts of Alton, Brookfield, Effingham, New
Durham, Ossipee, Tuftonboro, Wakefield and Wolfeboro.
As a result of the favorable votes taken by the Effing-
ham, Moultonboro, New Durham, Ossipee, Tuftonboro and
Wolfeboro School Districts, the State Board of Education
at a meeting on March 11, 1963 approved the organization
of a Cooperative District, Grades One through Twelve.
The Organizational Meeting was held on April 20, 1963
at the Brewster Academy Gymnasium. A copy of the min-
utes of this meeting are included in another section of the
School Report.
The Sandwich School District was annexed to the Inter-
Lakes Cooperative at a re-organization meeting in April of
1963, and with the closing of Quimby School at Center
Sandwich, the Sandwich pupils were transferred to Inter-
Lakes High School.
With the transfer of the Sandwich pupils, the Inter-
Lakes High School was not able to accommodate all the
high schools pupils from Moultonboro, and after much study
84
by the School Board, an agreement was reached, and the
pupils in Grade Twelve were assigned to Inter-Lakes High
School and the Plymouth School Board agreed to sign a
contract to accommodate the pupils in Grades Nine through
Eleven until the new high school at Wolfeboro is ready.
Under the supervision of Roger E. Person, Principal of
the Moultonboro Central School an opportunity for partici-
pation in basketball was set up and the team has played
games with high and prep schools in this area.
Costs
The property tax assessment for the school year 1963-64
is $118,582.75 which is 46.59% of the total property tax.
Considering the State as a whole, an average of fifty-seven
percent of all local property taxes are earmarked for the
support of schools, and one-half of all N. H. School Districts
designate at least 65% of the property tax for school
purposes. The Moultonboro School tax rate per $1,000 of
assessed valuation is 17.70% and the state average is
29.35% and this rate is due to the high valuation of the
Town.
Conclusion
On July 1, 1964 the Moultonboro School District, as a
part of the Governor Wentworth Cooperative School Dis-
trict will be under the supervision and administration of the
Wolfeboro-Pittsfield Supervisory Union.
It certainly has been a pleasure to work with the var-
ious Board Members during the past nine years, and look
back on the progress made. I wish to take this time to
express my appreciation to them, the Teaching Staff, Cus-
todian, School Lunch Supervisor, Transporters, elected Of-
ficers and P. T. A. members for their fine cooperation and
sincere devotion to their responsibilities.
MARTIN E. HEFFERNAN

Principal's Report
1963-64
The school year 1963-64 will go on record as the one
with our largest enrollment. We opened with 146 pupils and
it has increased to 150. The enrollment is divided as follows:

Mrs. Kaffel 20 Fourth Graders

Miss Goss 15 Eighth Graders
A team teaching program was instituted for Art, Music
and Physical Education in the first four grades with Mrs.
Whitehouse teaching Art, Mrs. Perkins the Music, and Mrs.
Kaffel the Physical Education. On the upper grade level,
Mrs. Tilton teaches the Fifth Grade along with the Sixth
Grade Social Studies and the Fifth and Sixth Grade Com-
bination T. V. Science series. Mr. Prescott teaches Sixth
Grade Reading and Language, Seventh Grade Division II
Reading and Language, Seventh Grade Science and boys

ision I Reading and Language, Seventh Grade Social Studies,
Eighth Grade Reading, Language and Social Studies, also

Seventh Grade Mathematics to two divisions, Sixth Grade
Mathematics to two divisions and Fourth Grade Science.
Mrs. Kaffel also has a remedial Reading Program for Grades
Four through Eight.
Miss McCuen teaches Music on Fridays and Mr. Bushnell
teaches Instrumental Music on Monday afternoons.
We hope that this varied program is doing the job that
is needed by the pupils of Moultonboro and solicit your aid
in planning for any areas which may seem neglected.
Yours in service,
ROGER E. PERSON,
Principal

Report of the School Nurse
September — December 1963 Inclusive
This year the nurse is scheduled to be in Moultonboro
one day a week usually on Tuesday.
All students were examined in September by Dr. Ratsep,
school physician.
Vision tests have been completed for each student. A
notice was sent home by those found to have a defect sug-
gesting further examination by their family eye doctor.
Poly-Vi-Sol Vitamin tablets are given free to all child-
ren. These are being donated by the Grange, P. T. A. and the
Red Cross.
An added test for the children this year was the Visual
Color Test. This is to check for color blindness and even
though nothing can be done to cure this, it is increasing in
importance to know about the defect especially in choosing
a vocation.
Some children attended the Speech Clinic held in
Meredith December 4, 1963. Mrs. Lawrence, Speech Patholo-
gist, and her team from Portsmouth Rehabilitation Center
were at the Clinic to screen the children on the degree of
a speech problem. A detailed report is to be sent to the
school to aid in improving this defect. The Pythian Sisters
donated towards the Clinic so the children could attend.
Routine heights and weights were checked for each
child in the fall and frequent inspections for cleanliness
were done.
The cooperation of the members of the school board,
superintendent, principal, all school personnel, school doctor
and parents of the community has been appreciated.
Respectfully submitted,
AMY L. BROWN R.N.
