REPORT OF DECORATION DAY COMMITTEE.


The small appropriation of $100 in 1901 did not enable your committee to carry out the program they would have liked, and without the kind assistance and donations from several of our patriotic ladies and a generous gift of $15 from a public spirited citizen we should have been obliged to have omitted the lunch which is usual and necessary on such occassions. The sum of $100 is inadequate to properly carry out the exercises of the day, and we would respectfully recommend a larger one for ensuing year.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE WAYLAND WATER WORKS.


We have had plenty of water in Basin all the time this year, and as we had no large fires to draw on it, were never lower than two (2) feet, from high water mark. The commis- sioners decided that as we had water bonds coming due this year, not to lay out any money on improvements on basin or pipe line.
