A CARD OF APPRECIATION
The undersigned, after nearly nine years service on the various Federal Relief Programs, (C. W. A., E. R. A., and W. P. A.), feels that in leaving that program he should once again extend his heartfelt thanks to the various town officials, public utility companies, private citizens and last, but by no means least, the loyal men and women who affiliated with him in the actual carry- ing out of the work end of the entire project.
Upwards of 3500 people at one time or another worked on the relief program. The largest number at any one time was 750 during the winter of 1933-34, but the list has gradually dwindled down to its present all-time low. I am pleased to think that I had a major part in pre- paring and carrying out this program of improvements in our town, and in the handling of the vast sums of money expended here by the Federal and local government.
I am leaving behind me many pleasant memories of friendships made and friendships which I hope will en- dure. To all my former workers on W. P. A., good luck and best wishes to each and every one of you.
Sincerely yours, FRED J. COLEMAN,
Ex-W. P. A. Town Agent.

Report of the Inspector of Animals
Milford, Mass., Jan. 1, 1943
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
Owing to present war and government restrictions the State Division of Livestock Disease Control this year deemed it advisable to omit the usual annual inspection of farms and live stock, but I am able to report that, from observations taken on many visits in line of duty, conditions continue to be good and stock free from con- tagious and infectious diseases.
Two permits were issued by the State board for the entry into this town of two carloads of cattle for slaugh- ter. These cattle were examined and checked and the proper returns made to the Dept. of Livestock Disease Control.
There were the usual number of dog bites, including 44 bites and 35 false alarms, which cases were found to be unwarranted reports.
Respectfully submitted,
B. F. HARTMAN,
Inspector of Animals.

Report of the Inspector of Wires
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
The work of the wire inspector for the year ending December 31, 1942, including a few installations, has been mostly the supervision of remodeling work and of the con- tinued installations of fluorescent lighting, especially in large buildings and factories.
I have inspected every building in which there was a fire, and I am glad to state that electric wires had not been the cause.
In a number of cases where I inspected amateur home wiring, which is often dangerous, I wish to state to the public, at this time, that it is cheaper in the end to have a reliable licensed man do the work and also see that the materials used are passed by the National Electric Code Standards.
There has been considerable improvement in the re- pairs of unsafe grounding.
Respectfully submitted, MATTHEW N. NIRO
Inspector of Wires.
