QUINCY W. P. A. RECREATION PROJECT
The Park Board herewith credits the W. P. A. under the super- vision of Gerald Gherardi with having submitted an excellent report, under the handicap of a reduced personnel.
Good results were accomplished, and valuable assistance rendered the Park Department, a full and detailed account with facts and figures are on file at the Park Office and are available to all who care to call and avail themselves of the chance to read the report.
Recommendations
The Park Board had several recommendations, but owing to the United States entering into World War II, it was thought best to withhold them at this time.

Vandalism
The Park Board still feels rather strongly on this yearly sub- ject, vandalism. The Park System seems to be the target of this type of fifth-columninst each year. To the largest extent, our losses, the past year, are estimated in the vicinity of two thousand dollars. The Board of Park Commissioners take this opportunity to thank the group of citizens who are organizing to assist us to stamp out this evil, by a system of education and will cooperate with them along these lines. The offer of a reward of $25 to any citizen who can give information and conviction about any vandal committing these acts, still stands.
Conclusion
We acknowledge the magnificent spirit of cooperation evidenced by His Honor, the Mayor, the City Council, the Quincy Patriot

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
To His Honor, the Mayor of the City of Quincy:
The seventy-first annual report of the Trustees of the Thomas Crane Public Library is submitted herewith.
In the interest of economy of paper and printing, this report is purposely made brief.
The routine work of the Library and all its branches throughout the city has been going on in its usual course. Nothing has been left undone to meet the demands for reading and research on the part of our citizens, so far as the facilities of the Library permit.
In war-time there is an increase in demand not only for technical and scientific works, but also for good literature. Countless people turn to reading to relieve the tension caused by the war. This is true not only as to civilians, but as to men in the armed forces as well. The Army and Navy emphasize the great use made of books by men in those services.
Our librarian, Mr. Hill, is chairman of the Victory Book Cam- paign in this community and has been active in the collection and forwarding of books to the men in service.
The Music Department of the Library has received many favor- able comments, and accounts of its work have appeared in numer- ous magazines and newspapers throughout the country.
The members of the board take this opportunity to attest again the loyal and efficient service of the librarian and staff and to thank the Mayor and City Council for their cooperation in the work of this department.
Respectfully submitted, GEORGE E. ADAMS, Chairman, GEORGIANA CUSHING LANE, Secretary.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY
REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
To the Trustees of the Thomas Crane Public Library:
Herewith is submitted the seventieth in the series of annual re- ports of the public library of Quincy. It is the record of a year which at its end found our country engaged in a World War, the chief stake of which is the survival of democracy. Peculiarly dem- ocratic in its conception and in its practice, a public library has no reason to complain if the effort to wage war successfully and to maintain the home defense leaves people with less time to read. Practically all public libraries are reporting losses in circulation of books for 1941, amounting in some cases to as much as 12% of the 1940 figures. In the case of the Thomas Crane Public Library, the loss is slightly under 7% and is largely in the fiction class. However, the total books loaned, 646,815, represent 8.5 books per capita and 27 books per registered borrower, both these percent- ages being above the average for public libraries. The demand for technical books continued to be heavy and we feel it was not ade- quately met although one thousand dollars of the book appropria- tion was allocated to books in these classes, which included special titles dealing with civil air defense. In connection with the use of books, I may add that all men in the military or naval service who are temporarily stationed in Quincy have been granted all of the privileges of the Thomas Crane Public Library and that many of them have already taken advantage of the opportunity and have been most generous in their expressions of appreciation.
The Music Room has continued to be an active and popular feat- ure of our work, particularly the phonograph department. During 1941 671 records were added to the collection which now totals 1181. There has been no lessening in the use of the instruments in the booths on the days the room is open and during the year 8,401 records were taken out to be played at home, the daily circulation increasing steadily as the year went on. A series of record concerts was arranged by Miss Hebert, our music librarian, during the spring and has been continued this fall and winter. In addition, Miss Hebert has conducted musical story hours for the children in the elementary school grades.
Our other departments and services have rendered a satisfactory accounting of real work accomplished. The tenseness of the inter- national situation, defense planning and war preparations all have been reflected in the type of information sought at the reference desk, in requests of the readers' adviser for bibliographies and specific books and even in the Children's Room stories of air pilots and nurses run far ahead in popularity over those whose heroes are in more prosaic occupations.
This year our library made more of the observance of National Book Week than usual. This began with an informal open house at the main library on Sunday, November 2nd, and was followed by a phonograph record concert on Monday evening and, on Tuesday, a program which included a talk on art appreciation by Miss Mary Reardon and notes on timely books of the season by Mrs. Margaret Joyce. Wednesday afternoon over two hundred children crowded into the Children's Room for a story-telling hour by Mr. John J. Cronan and on Friday Miss Eleanor Gow gave readings from "Keys to the Kingdom" by A. J. Cronin. In conjunction with this program exhibits of children's and adult books were held at the main library
336
CITY OF QUINCY
and at some of the branches and the Granite Trust Company graci- ously loaned one of their windows for an exhibit of up-to-the- minute technical books. Your librarian is fortunate in having in Mrs. Margaret Joyce the answer to the requests that come to him for some one to talk to groups on new books. That Mrs. Joyce is the answer is proved by the fact that she gave thirteen such talks last year to audiences that varied in size from twenty to four hun- dred and fifty and has engagements scheduled as far ahead as November 1942. Last summer Miss Gow began preparing for a series of readings from popular new books and three of these were given during the fall to small but interested audiences in the Lec- ture Room. She too has been asked to repeat these readings before small groups. We are grateful to the Quincy Patriot Ledger for the continuance of the opportunity for Mrs. Joyce's weekly column of book notes, "Leaves from the Library", and for generous space given to other notices of library activities.
Marriage was the cause of two resignations from the staff dur- ing the year which were accepted with regret. Miss Doris Rizzi, who had served as librarian successively of the Temple and Nor- folk Downs branches since 1933, resigned in May and Miss Edna Amet, assistant at the main library for six years, left us in Sep- tember. In October Miss Gertrude Henrikson, our hospital librarian, resigned to become the librarian of the Walpole Public Library, a position which represents a well deserved promotion and one which she is well qualified to fill. Her successor at the hospital library is Miss Catherine Zottoli, a resident of Quincy and graduate of Simmons School of Library Science, who came to us in December from a position in the Providence Public Library. During the inter- im, the hospital library was well served by the temporary transfer of Miss Bethiah Morrill. In the course of the year, four full-time apprentices, Miss Eunice Blackwood, Miss Elizabeth Close, Miss Christine O'Brien and Miss Carol Philip, were promoted to become regular junior assistants. During the summer and fall many mem- bers of our library force have been busy with outside activities concerned with the defense and preparedness programs.
Once more this report offers me the opportunity to put into print a sincere "thank you" to all my associates on the staff and to your board for your confidence, interest and help.
Respectfully submitted,
GALEN W. HILL, Librarian

REPORT OF SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Quincy:
Your School Committee submits to you the following report for the year 1941.
The schools of Quincy have maintained their high standard of education during the year.
The school budget for 1941 called for an expenditure of $1,249,- 785.90. There was returned to the City Treasury from all sources the sum of $129,266.04, making the net cost to the taxpayers the sum of $1,120,519.86.
The increase in the school budget is due entirely to the increased cost of fuel and supplies and to the fact that eight additional cus- todians have been employed in order to comply with the State law limiting the work to an eight hour day.
Of the twenty-four school buildings, twenty of them are old and in frequent need of repairs. This is especially so in regard to their heating equipment, some of which is from forty to fifty years old.
A great deal of attention has been given to the Preparedness Program through the use of school halls, arrangements to protect the school children during air raids, fire prevention, etc.
The foregoing report was prepared by a special committee con- sisting of Mr. John H. Taylor and Mr. John P. Flavin and was adopted as the report of the School Committee for the year 1941.
342
CITY OF QUINCY
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the School Committee of Quincy:
As is required by law, I am submitting to the School Committee the statistical report of the Quincy Public School system.
The greatest service the school system can render during this emergency is:
(1) For each individual on the payroll to do the job for which he has been employed.
(2) For the principals and teachers to impress upon the pupils the importance of right habits of work, and to teach them to apply themselves to the mastery of the work assigned to them. This is a golden opportunity for the principals and teachers to teach the children obedience with respect to law and order.
The school authorities are doing all they can to secure a safe refuge for all the children within the school buildings.
In addition to our regular work, it is our common obligation during these trying times to give everything we have for the gen- eral public welfare, in fact, the general public welfare transcends all private or group interests for the sake of society as a whole.
We should give our whole-hearted cooperation. It means a devo- tion to the city, to the state, and to the nation. There are few of us but that can contribute something to our security. That does not mean that there are no private rights that society is bound to respect. The existence of such rights constitutes the essence of every democracy, and distinguishes the democratic system from totalitarianism where the interests of the state are all pervading. We must have confidence in our ability to meet and face our re- sponsibility, our obligation. This obligation rests upon all of us, upon every one of us, upon every group. This is what is meant by the common obligation for the general public welfare. I am there- fore asking that the entire personnel do their work with renewed energy and be on the alert, be calm, and be considerate of others.
As I see it, a large part of the solution lies in making clear the situation. Adjustments will have to be made from day to day. Your help and your advice and your cooperation in making clear the situation and in maintaining a high standard of efficiency is not only appreciated but constantly solicited. We cannot afford to build up with one hand and tear down with the other.
What I am trying to do is to make clear to the entire personnel some of the items that should become the common knowledge of all.
Respectfully submitted, JAMES N. MUIR, Superintendent of Schools.

In September, 1941, thirty-six additional boys were enrolled in the Machine Department. This was made possible through the efforts of the Superintendent of Schools who recommended that the Machine Shop be enlarged to include the Auto Mechanics and Machine classrooms. Because of the difficulty of securing new ma- chinery, used machinery was secured and is now in working order. Ten lathes and two milling machines are valuable additions to our equipment. This arrangement made necessary the transfer of the Auto Mechanics and Machine classes to two rooms on the first floor of the Coddington School and the hiring of two new machine in- structors-Mr. John Lundsgaard and Mr. H. Porter Perkins. The total capacity of the school is now 302 as compared to 266 last year.
Since September, 1941, eight of our students have enlisted in the armed forces of the United States, and twenty-two have accepted jobs in industry. As a result, we have but forty-three boys on our waiting list as compared to over one hundred a year ago. Twenty- seven of these applicants are from Quincy and sixteen from sur- rounding towns.
The total cost for maintaing the Trade School for 1940-41 was $52,075.01.
