No unexpended balances can be carried forward this year on account of the change in bookkeeping re- quired by State Laws.


Hereafter unexpended balances will be returned to Surplus Account.


A transfer may be voted by the Town from the Sur- plus account to the Revenue Account under which it is credited against the Tax Levy.


We recommend that the money received from Dog Licenses be appropriated one half to the Schools (Edu- cation) and one half to the Library.


We recommend that the town reimburse Mr. George E. French the sum of ($540.22) the same being one third of the total amount expended by Mr. French on Draper Road under supervision of the Highway Department with the approval of the Selectmen, the same to be taken from the Highway appropriation.


We recommend that the overdraft in Fire Depart- ment account, $31.71, and Moth Department account, $209.93, be appropriated and assessed the same are included in the total recommendations. We wish to call your attention to the new statute requiring all Real Estate Taxes to be paid within one year. There are now outstanding on 1922 taxes $26,905.09; against this amount there are two outstanding notes of the Town overdue, one amount of $10000,00, due Oct. 16, 1923 ยท one for $10,000.00 due Nov. 6, 1923.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT


During the past year the Board has made the usual appointments and attended to the routine duties required of it by law.


In addition thereto and in accordance with the vote of the Town it has appointed the following Committee to consider what action should be taken by the Town in respect to the regulation of bill boards, which committee we understand has given careful consideration to the subject and will report at the annual town meeting :


Edward M. Bennett Anna H. Cooper James Ferguson Albert F. Flint Sara Holmes


We have been informed from time to time by the Harvard Trust Company of its action in accordance with the request of the Town for investigation by it as to water supply. We have given such assistance as we have found it possible to them and to their agents in con- nection with this investigation and anticipate that a re- port will be made at the coming annual town meeting.


Acting in accordance with instructions from the Town we have provided additional police protection, especially in the camp sections. Owing to the splendid co-operation of the Chief of our own department with the State Constabulary we have been able to give this additional protection at such a small expenditure by the Town that the balance in the Police Department appro- priation is in excess of the amount specifically appro- priated for extra work, and we believe this extra protec- ton can be continued without special appropriation. There have been some evidence of increased lawless- ness and malicious mischief, especially in the center of the Town, which has no regular continuous police pro-


39


tection. It is our belief that the Town has not yet reached a size and is not yet favorably constituted for continuous service in the center of the Town. We wish to urge that all citizens familiarize themselves with the names of the special officers so that they can quickly reach by telephone a special officer when needed at any time. The special officers have always shown great will- ingness to assist in any time of need. We endeavor that there shall be sufficient appointments scattered suffi- ciently widely so that a special officer can be found not far from any need that may arise.


We have continued to lend our assistance in every way in our power to any department which asked our co-operation and to keep in as close touch as possible with the activities of the various departments. We are glad to be able to report that the departments as a whole we find work together with a splendid spirit of co-oper- ation.


We have continued our active interest in the affairs of the Treasurer's Department to establish the finances of the Town upon a firm basis and to operate his depart- ment entirely in accordance with the requirements of the law. We hope that all townspeople will realize that this effort is being made for the good of the Town and ultimately for the good of all taxpayers and that only by prompt payment of taxes can the Town finances be con- ducted on a businesslike basis. The law now requires that all real estate taxes shall be paid within a year from their due date. Many people seem not to have realized this. Many do not seem to realize that they are no better off after unpaid taxes have accumulated than they would be if they paid up regularly. We hope that very soon all back taxes will be paid up so that here- after no one will have to be asked for more than one year's taxes and that funds will be provided regularly so that the Treasurer will be able to meet his notes promptly. We feel much humiliated by the fact that we have again been obliged to let two notes remain unpaid at the end of the year.


We have also co-operated with the Treasurer and the Finance Committee in altering our accounting sys- tem to such extent as has been necessary to make it


40


conform more nearly to the standard State practice, so that the transition to the new State system, the instal- lation of which was voted by the voters last year, shall be as little confusing as possible. We feel that such changes as have been made, as soon as they are under- tood, will make the Town finances more easily under- stood by all.


In connection with the Highway Department, we have lent our aid wherever we could and especially in assisting the department to obtain a continuation of the State and County appropriation which has made it pos- sible to keep up the roads on which that money is spent in such good shape. We have also worked with the Supervisor of Highways in endeavoring to have a new bridge of permanent construction built on the State Road, replacing the present wooden structure which has caused us so much trouble and anxiety for years. We were very glad that the accident which took place there was in no way caused by the condition of the bridge and that the Town is in no way responsible for it. Plans now seem to indicate that the bridge will be built this sum- mer at very little cost to the Town if the townspeople will assist in keeping land damages at a minimum. We are glad to emphasize the hearty co-operation which has always been evidenced on the part of the Supervisor of Highways.


A further section of the State Road sidewalk has been completed. Remaining sections present a number of engineering problems upon which there seem to be considerable differences of opinion. Completion of the section which was built was so late that it was deemed undesirable to undertake further construction. We hope that the new Board will be able to carry out the balance of this project.


We find that almost without exception all depart- ments have endeavored to expend the funds entrusted to them wisely and only to such extent as has been neces- sary. We congratulate the departments and the Town upon the fact that there are this year only two depart- ments which have exceeded their appropriations, and these two departments, the Fire Department and the Moth Department, were in no way to blame for the fact


41


that their expenditures exceeded the amount appropri- ated. The Moth Department was required to make ex- penditures by State regulations. The Fire Department must attend to such fires as occur. We hope that here- after with the establishment of a reserve fund there will not be any unpaid bills or overdrafts. We do not believe that the expenditure of Town money should be niggardly but we do believe that the best interest of the Town is served by a careful and businesslike expenditure of reasonable sums and that a community such as ours should be able to have all the service that is needed with a reasonable tax rate.
