1. All applications for use of water must be made at the office of the Water Commissioners, and state fully the pur- poses for which it is intended to be used.

The property will in all cases be held responsible for the water rates.
2. All persons taking water must keep their water pipes and fixtures in good repair and protected from the frost at their own expense. They will be held liable for all damages resulting from their failure to do so. They shall prevent all unnecessary waste, and water shall not be left running to prevent freezing. The Water Commissioners or their agent may, from time to time, ascertain the quantity of water used, the manner of its use, and whether there is any unnecessary waste. They and their agents shall have free access to the premises supplied, to examine the apparatus, and if any fixtures are found not to be in good order, they shall direct them repaired, and if not repaired within two days the water shall be shut off and not let on again until such repairs are made, and the sum of two dollars paid for shutting off and turning on the water.

4. Any person supplied with water shall not allow another to take water from their fixtures without the written permission of the Water Commissioners. If any tenant, having no fixtures, has any use of such fixtures, full rates will be charged for such use by each tenant.
5. All parties using water in stables, for horses or other animals, will be charged schedule rates for the same, whether it be carried by hand or through hose.
6. All persons using water for building purposes are re- quired to obtain a permit from the Water Commissioners before taking water from any faucet or fixture connected with the water works, and all water takers are warned not to let any party take water from their premises until they show a permit from the Water Commissioners. Any person fur- nishing water in violation of this section will be subject to a fine of not less than five nor more than twenty dollars, and if the same when levied is not paid within three days from the time when the notice thereof is given, the water will be shut off from the premises and will not be let on again until such fine is paid.

TOWN OF RANDOLPH
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
Randolph, Mass., Dec. 31, 1917.
To the Citizens of Randolph:
The School Committee hereby make and submit for your consideration, the annual report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1917.
In the report of the Superintendent, will be found the statistics for the year and other matters of interest.
At the close of the school year in June, Mr. Samuel F. Blodgett tendered his resignation, having served the district for four years, thus completing a long and successful career as a teacher and Superintendent.
He has been an educator for more than forty years and our schools have profited much from his wide experience.
From a large number of candidates James J. Quinn, Jr., of Spencer, Mass., was elected to fill the vacancy.
Mr. Quinn is a young man of marked ability, possessing the essential qualifications to successful work in our Schools.
Your attention has been directed, many times, in previous reports to the congestion which prevails at the Belcher School; although seventy or eighty pupils from this district are occupying two rooms at the Prescott Primary Building, the overcrowded condition continues, showing conclusively that this portion of the town is growing steadily.
The only permanent solution of the difficulty, would be a properly equipped eight-room building.
An addition to the old building has been deemed inadvis- able, for many reasons.
75
EIGHTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT
Therefore, the Board recommends that the town purchase and equip a portable Schoolhouse to meet the present need.
The School Committee visited South Braintree and in- spected the portable building connected with the Noah Torry School and were very favorably impressed with the same.
An article has been inserted in the warrant for the Annual Town Meeting, asking for a Special appropriation of approxi- mately two thousand dollars for this purpose.
,This will mean the employment of an additional teacher. The teachers in the High School as well as elementary are asking an increase in salaries now paid.
To meet this demand an addition to the appropriation for teaching will be needed.
In the face of many discouragements, the pupils continue to show a keen interest in the School Gardens. The exhibi- tion given by them in September in the High School was very creditable and we feel indebted to the Randolph Grange, who so kindly furnished committees to receive and arrange theexhibits as well as to act as judges and to award the prizes.
As an observation of Arbor Day an ornamental tree, commonly known as the Weeping Birch, was planted upon High School grounds by the Grange.
To insure greater safety and protection for the children, a fire escape has been placed upon Prescott Grammar School and a much needed improvement at the Belcher School was the replacing of the fence which encloses the property completely.
A large number of bills are still unpaid for the 1917 account. A detailed statement of receipts and expenditures of this department is annexed to this report. The Com- mittee ask the town to raise and appropriate the following

TOWN OF RANDOLPH
REPORT OF SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
To the Citizens of Randolph:
During the past year we have had two slight epidemics in our schools. One of measles and one of diphtheria. No fatal cases were recorded due to measles, but there were two recorded due to diphtheria. One of these cases could have been avoided if the father of the boy had taken the advice of the School Physician and taken the child to the hospital. This was refused until too late and the boy died.
I am appending a letter sent to the physician by Dr. Champion, which will explain itself.
. Thanking the Board of Health, our Superintendent and teachers for their hearty support during the past year.
