CLASS SONG


We are the class of '27; We're gathered in this hall To say good-by to classmates dear, To our friends and teachers all.


From here we'll go into the world, And into life's relentless school Where we shall work and prove our worth Under a firm and iron rule.


And ever as we go along From our good motto we'll ne'er swerve, But always we shall sing our song, "We enter to learn and we leave to serve." Class Motto: "We enter to learn and we leave to serve" Class Colors: Green and Silver

It has come to a point where it is absolutely necessary that we have a small car to carry on the Wire Inspection work. You will note by comparing the figures of our reports six years ago and the above figures that our inspections have increased from 735 in 1921 to 2,775 during the past year.


The following improvements have been completed during the past year: The French Cable Line that heretofore passed through the City Civic Zone has been re-routed so that all poles from the junction of South Main and Wall Street through Railroad Avenue to Park Street has been removed, making a great improvement in the appearance of the streets. The Telephone Company has completed the installation of considerably larger cable. In some instances some of this cable is the largest being made to date. When all overhead cables which have been increased also in capacity are completely placed in service which will be in the near future, our citizens will receive a desided improvement in service by being able to cut down the number of parties on each line.


Recommendations


Office Expenses.


$250.00


Small car for wire inspection. 650.00


I wish to extend my sincere thanks to His Honor, the Mayor, the Municipal Council and all officials and citizens for the courtesy and hearty co-operation extended to this office during the past year.


Respectfully submitted,


JOSEPH H. NEWCOMB,


Electrical Inspector

ANNUAL REPORT


City Solicitor's Report


To the Honorable Fred E. Briggs, Mayor of Attleboro:


I submit my annual report as City Solicitor for the City of Attleboro for the year 1927.


During the year I have attended conferences, consultations and given advice 449 times.


I have given twenty-one written opinions, drawn three releases and assisted in drawing four votes for the Municipal Council and five new Ordinances.


I have collected three claims for the city, including one for the Welfare Department of $973.75, the others in assisting the City Collector.


I have drawn three easements and guarantees and one agreement.


I have assisted in the matter of the taking of land for the widening of South Main Street and Park Street and also taking of the Blake land in Mansfield for the new water supply and of the taking of waters of the Mirimichi Pond.


I have appeared for the city in the land court on two petitions for registration of land, one by Charles R. Wood and the other by Alice M. Gaffney.
