ANNUAL REPORT.


Report of the Selectmen


The second year as a separate Town has now passed into history, and we can safely say that we are now through the experimental stages, and our most skeptical townspeople are forced to admit that no very grave mistake was made when Plainville took its place among the other towns of Massachusetts.


The past year has been one of great prosperity, and the growth of the town has been very marked and gra- tifying.


One of our greatest needs at the present time is a water supply, which we trust will be a reality within the next few years.


, A small appropriation for lighting the streets would be appreciated by all people of the Town.


Something should be done at once to take care of the great amount of water that gathers at the corner of South and Bacon streets during a storm, and we recom- mend that a special appropriation of five hundred dol- lars be made for that purpose. We have the assurance of the Plainville Land Company that if this work is done the property known as the Old Factory will be properly graded, which will greatly beautify the ap- pearance of our principal street.


A location was granted the American Telegraph and Telephone Co. to lay underground wires on Washington street, from the North Attleboro to Wrentham line.


14


ANNUAL REPORT.


This work necessitated a change of street grade for a number of hundred feet near the Shepardville ponds, and that guard rails be erected its entire length.


The work is nearly completed, and when finished will be a great improvement, as well as financial saving to the Town.


All expense has been borne by the American Tele- graph and Telephone Company, and the road work done under the supervision of our Highway Surveyor.


After public hearings a location was granted the Prov- idence Telephone Company to erect poles on Spring and Broad streets.


The following licenses have been granted the past year :


Auctioneer-H. Eugene Thompson ; fee, $2.


Billiard and Pool-George H. Adams; fee, $5.


Junk Dealers-J. Cohan, D. Mittel; fees, $10 each.


In addition to above, we recommend the following appropriations for the ensuing year :


Salary account $925.00


Current and incidentals 1,000.00


Highways and bridges 1,000.00


Pauper 650.00


Memorial Day 75.00


State aid 125.00


For Fire Department and Schools you are referred to reports of Fire Engineers and School Committee.
