The old part of the roof at the Washington School that has given trouble for a long time has been replaced. The exterior trim was painted with two coats of lead and oil paint. Repairs were made to the lights in the corridors. New posts had to be placed under the floor of the portable building. It is doubtful how long this building can be kept in a usable condition as the roof is in poor shape as well as the underpinning. The flagpole has been taken off the roof and is now on the lawn where it is much more convenient. It will also save a lot of roof trouble as the vibration from the pole when it was on the roof was the cause of many leaks.
If we can keep up the work for a few years, we shall be proud of the looks of our buildings.

Class Song
Leaving the portals of our A. H. S., we are on our way, Guarding the memories we now possess, keeping them day by day. During these years, we have made many friends, friendships have been cast; Now, at the time that our schooling ends, we know these friendships will last. We will succeed and we will not dismay, no matter how rough the sea, For it is true we're becoming today what we are to be. -Robert Pettitt

Report of Sealer of Weights and Measures
Dan O'Connell Sealer of Weights and Measures
January 20, 1941
To His Honor the Mayor and the Municipal Council, Attleboro, Massachusetts.,
Gentlemen:
I herewith submit my 17th annual report. The fast changing methods of commodity service to the public has increased the supervisory work of this department, especially in the stores of Self-Service where large quantities of various articles are put up ahead.
Packages must be marked according to law and close and frequent inspections are necessary. Complaints reaching this department are promptly investigated and the purchasing public may, at any time, bring articles to this office for re- weigh after purchase if they wish.
Reweighing of commodities purchased by the city including food products, coal and wood were rechecked and remeasured and complaints by individuals were also investigated and reports given.
Several persons required to register before taking orders for articles to be delivered at some future date were checked as well as persons requiring licenses.
Respectfully submitted, Daniel O'Connell,
Sealer of Weights and Measures.

Report of Board of Public Welfare
Frederick J. Franz Almoner
January 20, 1941
To His Honor the Mayor, and the Municipal Council,
Attleboro, Massachusetts,
Gentlemen:
In compliance with the City Ordinance, the Annual Report of the Board of Public Welfare for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1940, is herewith submitted.
Salaries
During the past year we have had the use of an additional Visitor on the staff, paid out of Federal Funds, and as a result our investigations have been more frequent and efficient than in the past. It is therefore our intention during the coming year to maintain our staff at its present efficient level. For the coming year we are recommending small increases in salaries for some of the personnel. This we deem quite necessary considering the increased cost of living and the fact that everybody's earning power has become greater than in the past several years. Although our case load has dropped the routine requires considerable more paper work due to the large number of new forms required both by the State and Federal Government in administering Old Age Assistance, Aid to Dependent Children, and Unsettled Outside Relief cases.
