REPORT OF WAYLAND PLANNING BOARD (1936)
The co-operative spirit which has existed throughout the year between the Planning Board and the other Town Boards and officials has been a most encouraging factor in our work.
We were asked to confer with the Selectmen, Water Board, Park Department and W. P. A. Administrator to assist in the preparation of projects for immediate and future government endorsement. Some subjects included were :
1. Preliminary studies of existing private ways in which the Town had voted to lay new cast iron water mains. e.g. Dudley Road, Beachwood Point, Lake Shore Drive and some roads in Shore Acres. Work included location plans, and in some instances the setting of grade stakes to insure that pipes would not require relaying when road may later be accepted and its surface properly graded.
2. Further study of the Dudley Pond District :- to pre- pare such plans as will soon be needed to meet the growing de- mand for at least a few of the more important arteries to give adequate access to this section, so as to discourage the numer- ous tax title sales and to encourage the owners of the better properties to improve them and to add to their holdings.
3. To work with the Town Officials at tax title sales and take steps to reserve for the Town easements for highway pur poses where such reservations will soon be needed and might become expensive.
4. To assist the School Department and Park Department by preparing a detailed planting program for the new High School Building, driveway and adjacent grounds. Our work includes a complete planting schedule, having in mind the ac- ceptance of the most generous gift by Dr. Martin Edwards who offered to donate nearly two-thirds of all the shrubs and trees needed to complete the project.
174
We staked out the holes dug for a group of maples donated by Mr. Alan C. Bemis which were actually planted early last spring. Unfortunately the demand for Town Welfare labor on State Highway work prevented more substantial progress on the grading and planting of the High School grounds.
5. To survey the lots adjacent to and including the Mill Pond at Wayland Center. There are six lots received from the Adams' Estate and accepted at the Annual Town Meeting. The old deeds are involved and some of the boundary lines difficult. We now have the field work completed and are ready to lay out a plan. This plan is the first step toward study of the future development of this most attractive area in the Town's Park System.
In all this work, the Planning Board has been functioning both as a Planning Board and as a Town Engineering Depart- ment, Our small yearly allowance would be adequate for the former but is entirely insufficient for the latter activity. The Government authorities are becoming more exacting in their requirements demanding proper plans as prerequisite data for any W. P. A. project. Not all citizens are aware that in our town the total of expenditures from all sources for such pro- jects is second in amount only to our school expenses. The most careful consideration and preparation of project plans should be complete before such work begins. Unless other arrangements are made for supplying this engineering service, your Planning Board will endeavor to expend such funds as may be placed at its disposal so as to obtain the maximum benefit for the general welfare.
GILBERT SMALL, Chairman, JAMES BOLTON, ARTHUR D. DOOLEY, CHESTER H. HOBBS, OTTO H. KOHLER, HOWARD S. RUSSELL, Clerk.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF FIRE ENGINEERS
The records of the Fire Department show a total of 102 alarms answered in 1936, 48 by the Wayland Company and 54 by the Cochituate Company. In several instances the Wayland Company was called to Cochituate to help out on fires that were threatening, and Cochituate aided in Wayland when it appeared extra help was necessary there.
Fires in buildings, including chimney and those caused by oil burners caused only fourteen alarms ; a very low record and a correspondingly low fire loss. The other calls covered a wide range. There were the usual number of grass, woods and brush fires and a larger number for emergency work. One drowning accident and a call to rescue two men trapped in a well taxed the resources of the department. On another occasion a boy broke through the ice and on another a horse was pulled from a bog.
The Wayland Company was of great assistance during the spring flood in pumping out cellars of houses where severe ill- ness made it necessary to maintain fires in heating plants.
Apparatus and equipment are all in good condition and ready for work.
Three members of the department, two from Wayland and one from Cochituate, completed the course at the fire drill school in Needham and received certificates on the completion of the work conducted by the Department of Vocational Train- ing. This makes a total of five men who have been interested enough to give their time and receive training which better fits them for the work they are later called on to do.
The fire alarm question will no doubt be settled one way or another by action on the article in the warrant covering the situation. The Board of Engineers sponsored this article as we feel that we are responsible for any result which might occur. Several times the past year the system would not operate and the same thing may again happen when there is an urgent need.

REPORT OF HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
To the Citizens of the Town of Wayland :
Materials
The past year 35,600 gallons of bituminous material have been used on our highways all of this being Tarvia except 2000 gallons of 45% oil which was used to lay dust on back roads.
Railings
About 500 feet of old railings have been replaced and 75 feet more were destroyed by motor vehicles repaired.
Culverts
Five stone culverts have been replaced with concrete pipe.
Gravel
2763 yards of gravel have been spread on the town high- ways this year. Shoulders have been cut back and 2187 yards of waste have been removed and used to fill and widen narrow roads.
Sand
3378 yards of sand have been used on oiling. Nearly all of this had to be purchased from out of town.
W. P. A.
Under government supervision all our back roads were widened and made ready for graveling. The money to do this graveling is ready and will be done when the government sees fit.
Stone Bridge
The old Stone Bridge is in very bad condition. The abut- ments have been working out of place slowly, but this spring owing to the flood, their position has been greatly changed. Sooner or later there will be a very bad accident. The bridge is only twelve feet in width and the railing could easily be pushed over into the river as there is absolutely nothing to fasten it to.
This year work has been given to 189 men of the Town.
Respectfully,
ARTHUR HEARD DUDLEY.
182
WORKS PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION
To the Citizens of the Town of Wayland :
The Works Progress Administration has been very active here in Wayland for the past year and I would like to familiarise the people of Wayland what real benefit the town has derived from the Federal Government funds which was allotted and accepted by the town to help the unemployed.
Federal Funds Expended for Emergency Relief during 1936 for the Town of Wayland
W. P. A. Program (earnings only through December 1936) $53,233
E. R. A. Program (December 1936) 246 Value of Surplus Commodities Distributed (through December 1936) 26,731
Total
$80,210
During the year 105 different persons have worked on W. P. A. at different interval. The 105 cases represent 390 persons who received benefits from the wages earned and paid by the Federal Government.
Local Projects
List of Local Projects which have been in operation and have been completed during the year of 1936.
Installing new drainage system on Harrison Street. Painting of Cochituate Fire Station (Inside and Outside). Grading around Pumping Station.
600 feet of new 6 inch water pipe laid on Castle Gate Road. 200 feet of new 6 inch water pipe laid on Old Connecticut Path. 1460 feet of new 6 inch water pipe laid on Lake Shore Drive. 2421 feet of new 6 inch water pipe laid on Dudley Road. 1778 feet of new 6 inch water pipe laid on Edgewood Road.
Records of all veterans of all wars enlisting from the Town of Wayland.
183
State Wide Projects
State Sidewalks on Boston Post Road.
Farm to Market Road on Old Connecticut Path. Flood Control on Boston Post Road.
Local Projects now in operation
Sewing for the needy.
Cleaning and repairing 4000 school text books.
Trimming 6676 trees along roadsides in Town of Wayland. Cutting down 71 trees along roadsides in the Town of Wayland.
Owing to the State having preference over all local pro- jects as far as manual labor is concerned, the State has made it impossible for the Town of Wayland to complete certain local projects that the town had voted money for.
Respectfully submitted, ERNEST H. DAMON, Wayland W . P. A. Co-ordinator.

REPORT OF THE WORK OF THE MIDDLESEX COUNTY EXTENTION SERVICE IN WAYLAND FOR THE YEAR 1936
The following is a report of the work of the Middlesex County Extension Service in the town of Wayland for the year 1936.
As is generally known, this is a county institution carried on by the Trustees for County Aid to Agriculture, appointed by the County Commissioners for the development of agricul- ture and homemaking in Middlesex County. Each town is represented by a director appointed by the Trustees. These services are free to any citizen of the county. Headquarters are maintained at 19 Everett Street, Concord, where a staff of agents trained in their particular field is available upon request.
Soil deficiencies have been indicated to farmers through soil tests and recommendations to correct these deficiencies have been given. Dairy farmers have been assisted in planning their crop program in securing market connections and what informa- tion is obtainable has been given in the control of mastitis.
For the fruit growers spray warning cards have been sent to all those interested and suggestions given for the material to use and the time of application for the control of the various insect and fungus troubles of the orchardist.
A large number of farm visits have been made to poultry- men, fruit growers and market gardeners upon request. A culling, tattooing and wax picking demonstration was held at the farm of George Richardson in Cochituate.
Wayland has been very active in Extension work during the past year. Wayland has a representative on the Women's Council of the Extension Service in the person of Mrs. T. P. Costelloe, who has been active as a leader and also as an organ- izer. There were five home furnishing groups in Wayland studying methods to improve their homes through re-arranging of their furnishings and the wise use of color.
188
In addition, at Tower Hill, Plain Street, Pemberton Road, Main Street, and Cochituate-North Natick sections meetings were held. The Mothers' Club of Cochituate-North Natick has carried the Extension program for eleven years. The fact that this organization continues to thrive shows that it fills a very decided need in the community. There were three groups in Wayland taking the coat and hat project this past fall; Pember- ton Road group, Tower Hill group, and Cochituate Main Street. Many attractive coats and hats for youngsters were made at very reasonable cost. A representative from the Extension Office also helped to judge at the fair in Cochituate. The many lovely quilts and rugs made it difficult to choose the win- ning articles.
In 1936 Wayland had three 4-H handicraft groups, two clothing, two poultry, two conservation, two garden, one junior homemakers, one canning, one stamp, and one music appre- ciation.
Club members of Wayland held an exhibit and achievement program in connection with a spring meeting of the Parent- Teacher Association. The Cochituate members also displayed work for the Parent-Teacher Association in their community and in the fall at the Grange Fair.
Dorothy Decatur represented the South Middlesex Service Club at State Camp. Ruth Decatur was representative of the Music Appreciation group she led, which won first state honors.
Mrs. Leslie Reid attended State Leaders' Camp. Barbara Reid was invited to be a special guest at the State 4-H Dress Revue in Amherst. She and Marjorie Ellis and Beatrice Decatur were in the blue ribbon class in the South Middlesex Dress Revue.
Priscilla Harrington was one of fifteen prize winners in an all-county canning competition.
George Toohill was awarded, for his excellent work in the 4-H gardening, a medal by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society.
The two-day trip to the Massachusetts Horticultural Society for 1936 was awarded to George Toohill for gardening, Marjorie Ellis for news-writing, Albert Smith for handicraft, and Kenneth Morrell for poultry.
189
Among the 4-H leaders not previously mentioned are : Elmer Bigwood, F. D. McGettigan, Robert Tillson, Mrs. Quo Heggen, Mrs. Charles Harrington, Miss Ena Tillson, Miss Dorothy Decatur and Miss Rita Bennett. The town 4-H Chair- man is Mrs. Joseph H. Decatur.
A speaker for the Grange Teachers' reception was furnished.

There have been no changes in membership or organiza- tion of the School Committee since the last report. Regular meetings being held on the Wednesday evening preceding the first and third Mondays of each month, excepting however, the month of August.
The School Department, through the kindness of citizens and various organizations of the Town, were the recipients of many generous gifts. We wish to express our sincere thanks to these donors.
We continue to recognize the desirability of filling such vacancies as we have, by selecting so-called local candidates, providing, of course, that such candidates are duly qualified for the positions open.
Government projects, pre school work and book repairing, have been carried on under the direction of the local adminis- trator, Mr. Ernest H. Damon, and have proven of real value to the School Department. Proposed Government projects for the ensuing year include ; the grading of the High School, the painting of the interior and exterior of the two Grammar Schools and the drainage of the Cochituate School. These projects have been submitted through the co-operation of the Selectmen, Finance Committee and the Administrator.
