ANNUAL REPORT


OF THE


WATER DEPARTMENT


ANNUAL REPORT OF THE WATER DEPARTMENT


To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, City of Newburyport:


Gentlemen-The 15th annual report of the board of water commis- sioners for the year ending December 17, 1910, is hereby presented.


Notwithstanding the very severe drought of the past year the water supply has been more than ample at all times, the main pond at the sta- tion having been full all summer.


At the Artichoke river station another pump and engine are being in- stalled. At present we are depending upon this source for practically all our supply, and as the pump there has been run practically all the time since it was started, we deemed it wise to be prepared against accident, by having a duplicate set installed. Proposals were asked for and the con- tract awarded to the Deane Steam Pump Co., for $5080. They have prac- tically completed their work and the machinery will be started for a test in a few days. This will give us sufficient capacity at this station all the time and allow one set of pumps to remain in reserve, most of the time, as a safeguard against accident.


The dam at Curzon's Mill Road has been raised two and one-half feet, bringing it about to the level of the roadbed and considerably above high water mark. This should prevent any such deplorable occurrence as took place during the high tide of last December.


At the main pumping station a new six-inch suction pipe has been laid for the condenser pump. Another large filter has been constructed in the Moulton field, and the general repairs, necessary to keep the plant in good running order, have been made.


MAIN PUMPING STATION


At numerous times during the past summer it has been necessary to run the present pumps to their full capacity, and the commissioners have given much thought to the installation of a new and larger set of pumps, realizing that, with the constantly increasing consumption of water, and the continuous running of these pumps, day and night, an accident might occur at any time whereby the necessary amount of water in case of a serious fire would not be available.


We addressed a letter of recommendation in relation to this to the city


154

council of 1910, but it was so late in the season no definite action was taken. We would request that this matter be taken up by the present city government as soon as possible.

In response to the request of the chief engineer of the fire department, new large-sized hydrants have been installed on State at Essex street, on Pleasant at Unicorn street, and on Bromfield at Chestnut street. The small ones on State street at the Wolfe Tavern and First National bank, and on High at Market street, have been replaced by larger ones, thereby adding to the efficiency of the fire service.


All bills against this department are paid with the exception of the balance due on the contract for the pump at Artichoke river station, $2540, not yet due.


For the financial figures of the year you are referred to the report of the treasurer which is attached.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN


In accordance with the rule requiring the librarian annually to make and present a detailed and circumstantial report of the condition and in- crease of the library during the year, I herewith offer the following:


At the close of the library year, November 30, 1909, there was reported a total of 43,727 volumes on the shelves or accounted for. Since the date of that report additions have amounted to 1,455 volumes, 1,168 by pur- chase, 143 by binding in permanent form magazines and other periodicals, and 144 by donation. Cancellations account for 117 and an error in last year's report for 60, leaving a total of 45,005 at this date.


In addition to this 100 pamphlets of special historical value have been put into pamphlet binders at the library and placed on the shelves where they are quicker of access. The library owns hundreds of pamphlets, the accumulation of years, many of which have been temporarily catalogued, and they are being added to from time to time. It is hoped that in time all of any special value will be rendered as easily available as the regularly bound volumes. Many of these publications are of absolutely no value save as waste paper, but by careful searching now and then some of real histori- cal account are found, and many others which it is worth while to pre- serve.


There are 8,071 registered borrowers, 1,263 of whom hold the addi- tional card which entitles them to draw a second book, other than fiction, and there are 46 teachers' cards out, each one of whom is allowed to draw 10 books at one time for use in school work, making a total of 9,774 bor- rowers' cards in force at present.


In this time 54,009 books have been withdrawn from the library for home reading. of which 41,201 were works of fiction and 12,808 of other character. While something of the work of this and other libraries of its class may be learned by these figures, they do not by any means tell the whole story. If there are three times as many novels as books of a more substantial class issued, they are certainly turned over three times as fast, and the person who takes a story book out one day only to exchange it for a new one the next day is no stranger. If it were possible to give the num- ber of hours these books were read or studied in the homes to which they are taken, it is very likely an entirely different showing would be made. Nor should it be forgotten that the most practical services to the community is furnished at the library building itself, where a moment's consultation of a volume is often of more real value to an individual than the reading of


162


ANNUAL REPORTS


many books, and where the way to a solution of almost any query that might arise can be pointed out. From its very nature it is impossible to furnish any statistical report of this form of service.


Besides as stated above by binding new books, 382 volumes have been sent to the binderies for rebinding and their life of usefulness thus extended at a minimum cost. This does not take into account the many hundreds which have been kept in passable condition by work done at the library. Year by year the facilities for doing this kind of work increase, owing to the efforts of those engaged in furnishing supplies to libraries, and at a very small cost for materials, until today a very complete book-binding kit is furnished at a cost of about $10, by one house, with the assurance that the work is simple, easily acquired by the amateur, and in every way practical, which assertion is backed up by testimonials from libraries which have given it a trial. This does not interfere with the regular binding of new work, which of course is not attempted except by the very ambitious and expert, but does simplify the problem of how to keep the life in a book as long as possible, and at a low cost. It is well worth considering as a necessary ad- junct to this or any library, as a measure of economy.


During the past year room and shelving have been provided in the base- ment for the storage of several thousand little used volumes, mostly state. documents, serials, or works which have been practically superseded. The advisability of removing them from the main room is shown in the fact that not as often as once a month does it become necessary to resort to this room for a volume called for. By transferring these books considerable space is thus made available for new works, but not as much as might be supposed, from the fact that before removing them hundreds had for long been stacked up on the floor of the alcoves. Each year the building is be- coming more cramped for shelf space and a limit must ultimately be reached before many years have passed.


A separate department for a reference library, preferably on the main floor, and a children's reading room continue to be wants yet to be filled be- fore the library can be rounded out into its full usefulness to the public. A children's reading room is no longer an innovation in library work. Few city libraries which aim to keep in the van of progress are without them, and wherever they have been established the experiment is pronounced a success. To carry out such an undertaking however cannot avoid an in- creased expense of maintenance, as the actual presence of an attendant in a children's room at all times when occupied is of prime necessity, even more so perhaps than in the schoolroom. In addition special furnishings would have to be provided, such as can be seen in the South End reading room, where the children's department is its most striking feature and greatest success.


During the past year from time to time duplicate books, mostly juve- niles have been bought by this board and turned over to the South End library. While the title to these books remains as the property of this library, they are loaned without any time limit attached, and so in a measure that library, while strictly a private undertaking, becomes practi- cally a branch of this institution. If, in the course of time it can be made


163


PUBLIC LIBRARY


actually so, it would only be in line of what is being done in nearly every city. But as this would of course raise the question of the necessity of a branch at the north section of the city, to say nothing of Newbury, this scheme is something which must be left to the future to take care of.


During the past summer the reading room and main hall were thor- oughly renovated, the tints of the walls and ceilings changed to a lighter shade and the whole vastly improved, at an expense of several hundred dol- lars. which was paid for out of the general building fund. As the income of the fund was insufficient to meet this extraordinary outlay the accumu- lated principal had to be drawn on, which of course will unhappily diminish the regular dividend in the future.


Appended to this report are a number of tables setting forth more in detail facts of interest relating to the library, as well as reports of other officers.


Respectfully yours,


JOHN D. PARSONS.

PEABODY FUND


The Peabody fund, $15,000, is invested on deposit in the Institution for Savings, of Newburyport, subject to withdrawal only by a majority vote of the trustees. The income for the past year has amounted to $600, which added to the balance of $455.83 gives a total of $1,055.83. From this there have been purchased and added to the stock of books in the public library, 238 volumes, at a cost of $580.76, making a total of 11,924 volumes which the income from this fund has furnished during the 42 years since it has been available. A balance of $475.07, is carried to the new year.

BUILDING FUND


At the beginning of the year the building fund, on deposit in the In- stitution for Savings, was $6,332.88. As it was decided advisable to ex- pend an unusual sum of money in permanent repairs upon the building, the

bills for the same amounting to more than the ordinary income would meet, it became necessary to draw from the accumulated principal, and from it was taken $600, which leaves the principal at this time $5,732.88.


At the beginning of the year there was $300.82 on hand. The income has amounted to $241.28, and adding the sum above mentioned, $600, a to- tal of $1,142.10 is given. The bills for repairs and improvements came to $1,027, which leaves on hand at this time $115.10, to carry to the new ac- count. There are no bills outstanding.
