ANNUAL REPORT OF THE WATER DEPARTMENT
Annual Report of the Water Department
T'c the Honorable Mayor and City Council, City of Newburyport:
Gentlemen :- The twenty-first annual report of the Board of Water Com- missioners for the year ending December 16th, 1916 is hereby presented.
Since making our last report the cases of Mr. Thomas S. Lunt and Miss Annie L. Rogers, for land damages at the Artichoke River, have been tried before Walter Coulson, Esq., of Lawrence, acting as Auditor. He has reported bis findings on these cases and that of Mr. Lunt has been settled by the pay- ment of $500.00 and interest, amounting to $43.13. In the case of Miss Rogers the auditor's finding was for $1,000. This case has not yet been settled.
The case of Mr. Charles Brown was left out to arbitration and was settled by the payment of $155 00.
Early in the season, after careful consideration, it was decided to install electric power at the Artichoke River Station to replace one of the oil engines. A contract for electricity was made with the Newburyport Gas and Electric Co., and with the Chas. J. Jager Co., for the necessary electric equipment. After numerous delays this outfit was finally installed and started last month. It has not been running long enough to form any idea of what economy will be obtained, and no duty test has been made yet, but the improvement in the appearance of the station, both inside and out, are noticeable and the doing away of the noise and exhaust of the oil engine must be gratifing to the neighbors.
Estimates made by the expert advisors of the Board when the substitution of electric power for oil engines was being considered encourages us to be- lieve that the use of electricity will be not only better for our purpose, because inore dependable, but fully as inexpensive.
Additional trouble has been experienced with "Floating Islands" in the upper Artichoke, although not to the extent of last year, and a small gang of men have been employed most of the summer in removing the floating material so that at the close of the season the lake was practically clear.
Two rows of willow trees that stood in the water on land formally owned by Mr. Norris were removed by dynamite during the winter, greatly improv- ing the appearance of the lake at that point. Several fences along the road side have been built, or repaired, and the Pike's Bridge Road has been raised and rebuilt for several hundred feet.
It is of interest to note that since the construction of the upper dam it has not been neccessary to draw any water through the Gate House to the Lower Artichoke, the natural flow of the water over the dam being sufficient for all demands. At no time during the summer has the water been down more than six inches below the top of the dam.
158
ANNUAL REPORT
Another filter 150 by 200 feet, constructed of concrete, has been built in the Moulton Field. This filter was constructed in order that all the filters may be used in rotation, rather than continously, thereby allowing them to be exposed some of the time to the air and sunlight. It is hoped in this manner to obtain even better results with the Artichoke River water then we have in the past.
Labor conditions and delays in securing materials have increased the estimated cost of this undertaking and delayed its completion, but at the pre- sent time it is practically done and in operation.
There have been fourteen applications for new supplies received duing the year, making a total of 4465 takers at the present time.
Twenty-four new service pipes have been laid, requiring 1115 feet of pipe. Total number of services to date 3707.
There have been five breaks in main pipes and twenty in service pipes during the year.
A two inch pipe has been laid in Hillside Ave., a distance of 132 feet, and a one and one-half inch pipe has been laid in Hancock Ct., a distance of 95 feet.
The main station has been improved by a coat of paint and a number of minor improvements made to the interior of the building.
6,000 White Pine trees have been set out on the land surrounding the Jackman Basin.
The following are the pumping records for the year.

PUBLIC LIBRARY
Report of the Librarian
To the directors of the Public Library:
Gentlemen :- The circulation of books, for home reading, from this Library, during the year ending December 16, was 50,346. This is a falling off of about five per cent from the year preceeding, which, in turn, declined per- ceptibly from the "high water mark" of 1913. This by no means indicates a retrogression in the popularity and usefulness of the Library, and, in some respects, is a cause of congratulation. It is one of the signs of general pros- perity, in material things. I have before, in my annual reports, alluded to the fact that during periods of business depression the circulation of books seems to increase, while conversely when about everyone who cares for employment has little difficulty in securing it, the demand is lighter. Other librarians have marked the same results, although naturally in a more rapidly growing com- munity this is not so noticeable, the natural increase in population in a ineasure offsetting.
But, in this connection, it is a source of gratification to know, that the decline in circulation is more than covered by the lessening of the demands for works of fiction. This fell off during the year by 4,695, while the total circulation was but 3,954 less, thus showing that those who read for purposes of information and education, still found time thus to occupy themselves. The demands for books of general literature, biography, history, science and the the smallest.
arts, was larger than ever, in some cases notably so. That for novels, was
The number of books now in stock in the Library Building is 52,385. There were added by direct purchase during the year 1033, by binding mag- azines, etc., from the Reading Room 249, by donations 165 volumes. Canceled and withdrawn 109 books, making a net gain of 1338, and a total as given. The registration of card-holders at this date is 6152, an increase from 5737 a year ago. Of these 971 also hold supplementary cards, which allow the borrow- ing of books not fiction, in addition to their regular withdrawals by the ordinary card. Ten additional books can be withdrawn at any one time on each of 51 school-teachers' cards.
During the time covered by this report 560 books have been sent to binderies for repairs, and this takes no account of the inany hundreds the lives of which have been prolonged by putting them in order in the building.
There have been no noteworthy gifts to the Library within the past year, except that the sum of $5000, part of the legacy of $10,000 by the late Elizabeth H. Stickney, of Chicago, in which a relative in this city held a life interest, has become available, by the demise of the latter. The Library and the public are

also indebted to a former citizen, Frank W. Bayley, of Boston, for the interest he has shown in having, at his own expense, two valuable portraits belonging to the Library, renovated and improved in appearance, and in succeeding in identifying the Tracy portrait, which had been wrongfully entered as a Stuart, properly accredited to the rightful artist, an 18th century painter.

As to a proposed children's Reading Room, I can add little to the para- graph in my report of last year. I might say that conditions are now exactly as they were then. The paragraph read:
A Reading Room or section especially for children, which has been urged For several years past, and upon which a committee of this Board has favorably reported, with recommendations, has not yet been established, although prom- :ses are held out that in the near future it may be. The difficulty is chiefly that of money. From the regular appropriations and trust funds there is nothing available, and it is hoped that the city council may make a special appropriation for this purpose. It has been estimated that the expenditure of not over $300 would be necessary to equip it, and its annual operation there- after would add but little to the general expenses of the library.
That the opening of a Reference Room, on the first floor, some years ago, was a wise move and is deeply appreciated by very many people, old and young, is now most apparent. No one begrudges the slight additional expense it may add to the upkeep of the Library. Perhaps in due time, the same may be written of a children's Reading Room. It is especially useful to public school students, engaged in looking up material for compositions or debates. This department is in charge of Miss Tilton, the Superintendent of the Read- ing Room, and under her guidance the resources of the Library are ransacked to aid these young students, who confidently look to her for assistance and guidance. As bringing the latest word to many subjects, it is sometimes almost impossible to find a printed book, such as is wanted, "up to the minute," so to speak, and one has to be prepared for sudden calls, by the aid of collections of clippings on various subjects from newspapers of the day, or of innumerable notes referring to recent articles in late periodicals and magazines
Reports from other departments of the Library, follow, as well as tables in detail, a part of this report,

PUBLIC LIBRARY
THE PEABODY FUND
The sum of $15,000, donated by the late George Peabody, the income of which is to be applied to the maintenance of the Public Library, is on deposit in the Institution for Savings, where it has been invested from the first.
During the past year the income from this fund has amounted to $600. At the beginning of the year there remained an unexpended balance on hand of $609.98. From this sum of $1,209.98, there has been added to the Library 235 new books, making a total of 13,498 since the fund was first established. There has been paid out for these books $531,65, and an unexpended balance of $678.33, now remains on hand.

THE BUILDING FUND
The Building Fund ($5000), with some accumulations, amounting to $5,732.88, is invested in The Institution for Savings. From this principal the income during the year passed has been $229.28. Added to a balance on hand at the beginning of the year of $156.29, from this sum of $385.57, there has been spent for the up-keep of the building, in this time, $229.28, and the balance now available is $101.48.
