Personally, I shall never be content with our library when fully conscious that is not a growing institution. I abhor dry-rot and stagnation.


APPRECIATION


The library is one of the main educational forces of this community. It owes its continued existence to the financial support of the Town. The Association realizes and appreciates this fact.


The Association endeavors to show this appreciation by its efforts to make the library as efficient as possible.

The Board has received numerous complaints dur- ing the last year in regard to Householders being unable to dispose of their garbage in the village of Palmer especially.


To meet this problem, the Board has granted to two responsible parties to collect garbage at least twice a week in the village of Palmer without expense to the Town. Nominal fees, however, are accepted from the Householders if they wish to contribute for this service.


The usual quota of Children's and Contagious Diseases were prevelant during the year. Typhoid broke out in Thorndike in August but luckily confined itself to one famliy.


The Commonwealth is carrying out a so-called "10 year Programme", against the ravages of Tuberculosis among children especially. While this programme deserves the approval of the voters, nevertheless it will undoubtedly demand an increasing expense to the Town if we carry out the recommendations that the State outline.


The Board recommends the following appropriations for the ensuing year same as last, namely :


Clerical Work


$ 100.00

Inspection of Meat and Milk and Cattle

MICHAEL J. SULLIVAN OSCAR BRESSETTE NEIL McDONALD, Clerk


Selectmen's Report


The Selectmen respectfully submit the following report:


ORGANIZATION: The Board organized with the choice of William B. Kerigan as Chairman, and Frank G. Rogers as Clerk.


APPOINTMENTS: Ernest E. Hobson was appointed Town Counsel; Harriette Paine, Bookkeeper; Louis E. Chandler, Burial Agent; David L. Bodfish, Superintendent of Graves; M. Scott French, Chief Engi- neer; Louis Leveillee, Sealer of Weights and Measures; Fred H. Smith and Michael H. Davitt, Inspector of Animals; Timothy J. Crimmins, Chief of Police.


The case of Bernard A. Kaplan pending in the Superior Court, Boston, for injuries alleged to have been sustained in August 1922, on the River Road, so-called, running from the Village of Thorndike to Forest Lake, was settled by the payment to the plaintiff of $150.00. The Board felt, while there was question of liability, the cost of trying the case in Boston would be much greater than the amount for which the claim was settled.


The litigation with James H. Murphy, the contractor who built the Wenimesset School at Three Rivers, is still pending in the Superior Court. All the evidence has been put in, arguments made, and the case awaits the masters's report.


There have been no new claims brought against the town during the year.


The price for junk licenses was the same as last year, namely, $50.00.


63


The Selectmen made an effort by advertisement and otherwise to make a sale of the two old hearses belong- ing to the town, as authorized by the last town meeting. The best offer that could be obtained was $10.00. Dis- position has been made of them, as authorized, by turn- ing them over to the warden at the Town Farm. The running part of said hearses is to be fitted with bodies and practical use will be made of them in the operation of the farm.


The Board has done a lot of work in adjusting with property owners abutting on South Main Street and on the road leading from South Main Street over the Ten- neyville Bridge to Park Street claims for damages on account of the taking by the Commonwealth of their land in the construction of the State Highway in said streets. The claims of one or two property owners are still to be adjusted. In this connection the Board desires to call to the attention of the voters the fact that Better Brushes, Inc., released, without any consideration, a strip of land ten feet in width running along the front of the park property from the street railway car barn to the D. O. Pease Manufacturing Company plant, and that the D. O. Pease Manufacturing Company gave a re- lease, without any consideration, of a ten foot strip in front of its property on said South Main Street. This evidence of public spirit and desire to co-operate for the betterment of the Town on the part of these two corpora- tions should not go unrecognized.


The contract for the printing of the Town Reports this year has been awarded to The Palmer Register at the price of $5.65 per page for 1800 reports, as against $6.50, price paid last year.


The Selectmen attended a legislative hearing in Boston in opposition to the taking of the waters of the Swift and Ware Rivers for the uses of the Metropolitan Water District. The Board understands that the matter


64


is to be further considered by the legislature of this year and recommends that the town take the same action with reference to this matter that it did last year under Article 54 of last year's warrant.


The attention of the voters is called to the fact that during the present year occurs the 150th Anniversary of the incorporation of the Town. The event is worthy of suitable recognition and observance.


The town has received from the State Treasurer the sum of $5,045.11 under the provisions of Chapter 480 of the Acts of 1924, which provide for the return to the cities and towns of certain surplus funds collected to provide suitable recognition of those residents of Massachusetts who served in the army and navy of the United States during the war with Germany. Under said law this sum must be held as a special fund to be appropriated only for the purpose of paying indebtedness or for purposes for which the Town may borrow money as specified in sections 7 and 8 of Chapter 44 of the General Laws. The Board calls the attention of the voters to this sum of money so that consideration may be given by the town as to what use will be made of the same.


The Selectmen are still endeavoring to negotiate a satisfactory settlement with the United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company for an adjustment of its obliga- tion to the town on the several bonds of former Tax Collector Hawkes. The company has taken a decided stand against liability for any sizeable sum, and it may be necessary to bring suit in order to obtain any amount. The Board is advised that a complete audit of the Tax Collector's accounts for the years in question will have to be made and that this will involve an outlay running into hundreds of dollars. The audit made by the Divi- sion of Accounts in 1922 does not seem to be extensive enough to stand the test of a suit at law. Conferences are being had between a representative of the company


65


and the Town Counsel over various features of the accounts which may make a settlement possible without the expense of an audit or a law suit.
