Interesting Facts Regarding Citv
It is interesting to note just what Newton stands for to residents in other parts of the country. With its beautiful long avenues, its long lanes leading into beautiful wide parks, its streams and hills, its lovely gar- dens and artistic residences, it stands for prosperity and success. It signifies elegance and beauty, rather than fashion and display.
Although the march of time has brought changes to Newton in every part, though much of its barren land has been trans- formed into house lots and streets, though many of its old farm houses have been turned into modern dwellings. still Newton main- tains an abundance of its natural beauty which has given it the name of the Garden City, widespread recognition as a City of beauty, a City of homes.
The Charles River winds its course along the northern and western boundaries for more than sixteen miles, adding utilized water power at its upper and lower falls and much beauty to the scenery for miles around. Newton has that same New England atmos- phere which characterizes so many other Massachusetts cities, with its stable type of people whose interests are centered in their homes and the finer things of life. Each and every part of Newton typifies the modern "home Citv." a source of admiration to all visitors and of pride to its citizens.
Population
The best estimates of the present popula- tion of Newton indicates that it is approxi- mately at the eighty-five thousand mark today. This shows a tremendous increase within the past decade The steady stream of neonle who come to Newton vearly to make their homes here are of the thriftv. decirahle sort. good citizens who soon blend into the social and civic life and share the nride of their neighbors in their adopted city.
Administration
The administration of Newton's city cov- ernment is in the hands of safe and con- servative executives, honest public-spirited citizens who have the best interests of the people at heart and in their minds. This is manifested by the high standards of ad- ministration which this city has always ex- perienced.
Newton has a police department of 185 employees, giving it protection at all hours of the day and night. The fire department with 231 permanent men is always ready at hand to meet every emergency. Within re- cent years, all new modern fire apparatus has been installed.

Educational Opportunities
One factor which has always given New- ton a high standing in the estimation of those looking for a good "home city" is its superb system of schools. Since the early days of 1699, when the first little school- house was built and John Staples became teacher, holding his scholastic sessions four days in each week for a stipend of two shillings a day, the school system of Newton has grown nobly.
Since those early days, Newton has de- veloped tremendously along educational lines. Now there are high grade modern buildings, schools of the highest type for this purpose, with proper exits and due cau- tion against fires and other emergencies. There are also new modern high schools, and the number of pupils that enter the high schools has increased appreciably within the last decade. There also are sev- eral very fine private schools. The Lasell Junior College with its beautiful spacious grounds, established 1851, has long been fa- mous. This young ladies academy has ad- mitted young women from all parts of the United States and several foreign countries.
Among other well known private schools within the city are Fessenden and Mount Ida Junior College. The higher institutions of learning are represented by Boston College, in the Chestnut Hill section of the City, and the Andover Newton Theological School (1825) at Newton Centre.
Newton also has a splendid playground system which has developed tremendously within the last decade. There are now many beautiful spots which have been turned into playgrounds for the young. These play- grounds are in the charge of very efficient young men and women and the children are taught all sorts of healthful games, while other educational opportunities and interests are encouraged and promoted.
The Public Library
Another important factor which cannot be disassociated from the school room is the Newton free library. This was organized in Sept 1869, and received the property of its sponsors, the Newton Library Associa- tion. In 1875 the stockholders of the asso- ciation transferred the entire estate to the City of Newton. The location of the build- ing is on Centre Street, the ancient main thoroughfare of the town. The Newton Li-
brary contains 268,085 reference books of all periods, and is continually adding to the collection. There are valuable reference books of all periods, as well as works of old and new fiction. There are also many beau- tiful and rare prints. There are now branch libraries in ten sections of Newton, the most recent one being that established in Oak Hill Park.
Church and Social Activities
Church influence is strong in Newton, many social and welfare activities also centering in the church organization, of which, there are forty-six in the city. The first church was organized in 1633.
There are over one hundred forty clubs and fraternal organizations in the city, a Federation of Woman's Clubs, Kiwanis, Lions, Rotary and the Newton Chamber of Commerce.
Growth
History shows that the different parts of Newton have made rapid strides in develop- inent. In 1860 Nonantum Hill had only the Ricker family on its massive western shoul- der. The greater part of it consisted of scrub oak, a lonely and desolate tract of land. Early in 1800 Newton Lower Falls was a tranquil little village with but ten resident families. In 1872 the village had risen to 940. A little later the village of Newton Highlands was not much more than a cross- road settlement in a region of farms. Near- by were shops of the blacksmith and wheelwright. But today Newton is a great modern city teeming with activities, ever growing, ever expanding.
Business Activities and Opportunities
Although Newton is widely known as a residential city, it has various manufactur- ing activities. In Newton there are machine shops, and factories engaged in electronics, the manufacture of fire alarm systems, silk, worsted, plastics, paper boxes, railway sig- nals, knit goods, etc.
Information regarding manufacturing op- portunities, business facilities and residential advantages will be supplied on request by the Newton Chamber of Commerce, 1171 Washington Street, West Newton, 65 Massa- chusetts.

Information About the Newton Free Library Newton, Massachusetts
Newton, Mass., is a residential suburb which has long had a vital interest in pro- viding high standard educational and cul- tural opportunities. In comparative statis- tics among cities of its size, Newton has high standing in public library resources and their use. In round figures this city of 87,000 population has a book collection of over a quarter of a million volumes, an annual book circulation of well over three-quarters of a million (810,570 volumes in 1954), has ten branch libraries and strong reference facili- ties. The City appropriation for 1955 was $244,103.00 for the operating budget and the Library receives about six thousand dollars a year for books from endowment funds. In annual book circulation to the public the Newton Library is third among all city li- braries of Massachusetts and ranks among the first three for cities up to 100,000 popu- lation in the United States.
Historical
The New England colonists were much concerned that they should have educated ministers, leaders, citizens. For this reason, schools, colleges, public libraries, institutions of learning were a natural outgrowth of the people's interest. Horace Mann of Newton did much to establish high standards in pub- lic education. The beginnings of the Newton Public Schools and the Newton Free Library can be traced back to the ideals of the early colonists. To an unusual degree the Newton Free Library was built up through the volun- tary interest of citizen groups. It is a charac- teristic of the New England village pattern that in the village center there should be the- church, the school, a public library, the town hall, a village green. Newton grew from a collection of eleven villages; the citizen groups of the larger villages all built a- branch library by public subscription, given by them to the City which accepted the re- sponsibility for maintaining and operating the same. The original section of the Main Library was also erected and given to the. city by a group of interested citizens.
10
The Newton Free Library cooperates with the Newton Public Schools. It has a special department which lends collections of books to elementary school classrooms. It also sup- plies supplementary reading and reference services to the junior and senior high schools of the City, although they liave school librar- ies of their own. Newton is in the center of numerous colleges; a high percentage of its young people are college students, and the reference and book services, especially of the Main Library, are used by many college students. The range of library users is from the pre-school to the retired, from the well- educated to the beginning learners. The ideal of the Librray is that education, broad- ly speaking, is a life process, that books, periodicals, informational material and the ability to read opens a wide field for self de- velopment which is to the advantage of the individual citizen and the community. Music records, story hours for the children, li- brary halls for lectures, meetings, discussion groups, exhibits, displays are part of the educational program of the modern public library.
Operation of the Library
The Newton Free Library has a Board of Trustees appointed by the Mayor of the City with the approval of the Board of Aldermen. There are five members of the Board, all' prominent Newton citizens interested in edu- cational matters and good government. Their responsibility is the general oversight of the Library, supervising the expenditures of funds, being consulted on planning and ad- ministrative matters, the details of operation, the carrying out of plans is delegated to the Librarian and his staff. The annual Library Budget has to be approved by the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen. Bills and payrolls are paid through the customary City busi- ness procedures, as the Newton Free Library is the Library Department of the City of Newton. The Treasurer of the Library Board is the custodian and administrator of approxi- mately fifty thousand dollars in endowment funds left to the Library. Library accounts are audited by the Massachusetts State Audi- tors. Over one thousand dollars a month are returned to the City Treasury from Library fines and collections. The City Buildings Commissioner is in charge of the repairs to the Library buildings and new construction. Library grounds are looked after by the For- estry Division of the Street Department. It is a combination of citizen interest and of municipal support that has built up a strong Library System in Newton.
