A Few Historical Facts
As early as 1631 Newton was settled and fortified. In those days Newton consisted of a large tract of land with a dwelling here and there, a most modest settlement, but the foundation, nevertheless, upon which rests the beautiful progressive city of today. King's Handbook of Newton states "the domain northward of the Charles was acquired from the Indian queen, the squaw-sachem, Nane- pashemet's daughter, one of her prerequisites being a new coat each winter as long as she lived."
Newton was incorporated a town in 1688 being called New Cambridge until 1692; and having outgrown town government by 1873, was chartered a city in that year.
During the war with the Indians the men of Newton left their homes and families and
fought with the rest of the settlers. There is a stone in Nonantum, known as the Elliot memorial, which bears this inscription: "Here at Nonantum, Oct 28, 1624, in Waban's Wig- wam near this spot, John Elliot began to preach the gospel to the Indians. Here he founded the first Christian community of In- dians within the English colonies."
During the period of the Revolutionary War, the men of Newton rose with the other men of Massachusetts and shared the hard- ships that the crude army led by the great George Washington endured. And so history repeats itself down the ages. There are many beautiful monuments and ancient landmarks, silent tributes to the nien who so nobly an- swered the call to arms, from the early days when the settlers fought with the Indians thru World War II.
Interesting Facts Regarding City
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.
Population
The best estimates of the present popula- tion of Newton indicates that it is approxi- mately at the eighty-nine thousand mark to- day. This shows a tremendous increase within the past decade. The steady stream of people who come to Newton yearly to make their homes here are of the thrifty, desirable sort, good citizens who soon blend into the social and civic life and share the pride of their neighbors in their adopted city.
Administration
The administration of Newton's city govern- ment is in the hands of safe and conserva- tive executives, honest public-spirited citi- zens who have the best interests of the people at heart and in their minds. This is mani- fested by the high standards of administra- tion which this city has always experienced.
Newton has a police department of 200 employees, giving it protection at all hours of the day and night. The fire department with 238 permanent men is always ready at hand to meet every emergency. Within re- cent years, all new modern fire apparatus has been installed.
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 Association. In 1875 the stockholders of the association transferred the entire estate to the City of Newton. The location of the building is on Centre Street, the ancient main thoroughfare of the town. The Newton Library contains 268,085 reference book 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 beautiful and rare prints. There are now branch libraries in ten sections of Newton, the most recent one being that established in Oak Hill Park.
VII
Church and Social Activities
Church influence is strong in Newton, many social and welfare activities also cen- tering in the church organizations, of which there are forty-two in the city. The first church was organized in 1633.
There are over one hundred forty clubs and fraternal organizations in the city, a Federa- tion of Woman's Clubs, Kiwanis, Lions, Ro- tary and the Newton Chamber of Commerce.
Growth
History shows that the different parts of Newton have made rapid strides in develop- ment. In 1860 Nonantum Hill had only the Ricker family on its massive western shoulder. The greater part of its 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. A little later the village
of Newton Highlands was not much more than a crossroad settlement in a region of farms. Nearby 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 manufacturing activities. In Newton there are machine shops, and factories engaged in electronics, the manufacture of fire alarm systems, silk, worsted, plasties, 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 Wash- ington Street, West Newton 65, Massachu- setts.

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 liigh standing in public library resources and their use. In round figures this city of 89,000 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 (851,100 volumes in 1956,) has ten branch libraries and strong reference facili- ties. The City appropriation for 1957 was $265,038.90 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 con- cerned that they should have educated minis- ters, 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 New- ton Free Library was built up through the voluntary interest of citizen groups. It is a characteristic 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 citi- zen 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.
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 have school li- braries 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 stu- dents. The range of library users is from the pre-school to the retired, from the well-edu- cated to the beginning learners. The ideal
of the library is that education, broadly speaking, is a life process, that books, periodi- cals, informational material and the ability to read opens a wide field for self develop- ment which is to the advantage of the in- dividual citizen and the community. Music records, story hours for the children, library 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 ed- ucational matters and good government. Their responsibility is the general oversight of the Library, supervising the expenditures of funds, being consulted on planning and administrative matters, the details of opera- tion, 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 custom- ary City business 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 admin- istrator of approximately fifty thousand dol- lars in endowment funds left to the Library. Library accounts are audited by the Massa- chusetts State Auditors. 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 Forestry 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.
