Library Report 1955


Again this year, our Library was open one evening a week during the summer months. The various camps and summer residents made good use of this service. We have been discarding books and bringing the records up to date. With the approval of our Library Trustees, we sent out discarded books to the Millerton Public Library whose book collection had been destroyed by fire. They were most appreciative of our gift.


We are happy to state that the circulation of books this year was greater than last year which proves that television programs may come and go but good books go on forever.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


To the Citizens of the Town of Mount Washington:


We submit, herewith, a budget for 1956, expenditures incurred by the School Department, and the various reimbursments for 1955.


You will note that a total of $2,199.74 was expended during 1955 for all school expenses State reimbursements totaled $1,176.50, leaving a net cost to the Town of $1,023.24. This is an increase of $561.57 over 1954.


The increase in the net cost to the Town is a result of increased transportation cost due to road wash-out and a decrease in State re- imbursement for transportation of $319.50.


Respectfully submitted,


MORGAN G. BULKELEY, Chairman VICTORINE WHITBECK, Secretary MARY PORTER.


We recommend the following budget for 1956, to be expended ap- proximately as follows:
