REPORT OF SCHOOL NURSE


Mr. L. A. Merritt,


Superintendent of Schools, Williamsburg, Mass.


Dear Sir:


The annual report of the School Nurse is herewith submitted.


Assisted Dr. Hemenway with the physical examina- tions of pupils in Helen E. James School in Williamsburg.


Assisted Dr. Wheeler with physical examinations of pupils in the Haydenville Center School.


The Audiometer was used for hearing tests. . Two hundred and thirty-two (232) pupils examined. Nine found with defective hearing and were referred to ear clinic.


All pupils in grade 1, through VIII weighed and measured three times during the year. Notices sent to parents informing them of weight, and what the schedule weight should be.


Eye test given to three hundred and twenty-one (321) pupils, parents notified of any defectiveness.


Dental clinic held starting December 18th. Six hun- dred and sixteen operations taken care of.


Forty-four (44) pupils taken to Hampshire County Sanatorium for chest X-rays. 145 home visits made throughout school year. Diphtheria Clinic held in April.


Well child clinic held in June. Dr. Hemenway ex- aminating pediatrician.


Many cases of measles, pink eye and impetigo in Spring of year.


I wish to thank Mr. Merritt, the school committee, teachers, pupils and parents for their co-operation in as- sisting in my work.


Respectfully submitted,


NAN C. DUNPHY, R. N.

Report of Town Physicians'


Mr. L. A. Merritt, Superintendent of Schools, Williamsburg, Mass.


Dear Sir:


I submit herewith my annual report as school phy- sician of the Williamsburg Center school.


Mrs. Dunphy and I examined the students during October. As usual there were quite a few children need- ing dental care, tonsillectomies, or posture correction.


The engaging of a school dentist by the town, since the Red Cross has ceased to supply one, takes care of those children whose parents find it difficult to make the trip into Northampton, and this should help greatly in clearing up needed dental work.


The wards at the Cooley Dickinson Hospital are again open for clinic tonsillectomies, thus enabling parents to get this work done at a very reasonable rate.


May I again suggest that the poor posture of students is one of the outstanding defects in the physical condition of our children, and that a gymnasium teacher is urgently needed. Such a teacher could be shared by several towns and thus make the expense very reasonable.


73


In addition, I am again suggesting the alteration of the girls' rest room along lines indicated in our Town reports for a number of past years.


Much more could be done in the way of inoculations to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.


Attention to these few points would give our children a better start in the world, and surely we all want the best for them.


Respectfully submitted,


RUTH V. HEMENWAY, M. D.


74


Mr. L. A. Merritt, Superintendent of Schools, Williamsburg, Mass.


· Dear Sir:


I submit herewith my annual report as school phy- sician for the schools of Haydenville.


The usual examination of pupils was made at the be- ginning of the school year with the able assistance of Mrs. Nan Dunphy, the school nurse, several defects were re- ported to the parents for correction.


"In dividual responsibility of parents, as well as that of all others interested in the intellectual, literary, moral and religious training of youth, was formerly more than at present, considered indispensably necessary to its suc- cess. Parents felt it incumbent on them to watch over the conduct and education of their children with such solicitude as to evince the conviction that both depended wholly on their own efforts. Their duty now in this re- spect, is the same that it was fifty years ago. Increase in population, wealth and refinement, the multiplication of temptations to vice, allurements to pleasure, and all those influences which tend to divert the young from the line of truth and duty require that these efforts should be redoubled. It is not safe to trust the education of a child to society at large, unless every individual of that. society has been well trained under the paternal roof."


Thus speaks the Williamsburg School Committee, Thomas Meekins, James Nichols and Hiram Holmes in their report for the year ending April 30, 1856. All of which is as true now as ninety years ago.


Respectfully submitted,


C. H. WHEELER, M. D.


REPORT OF AN AUDIT


OF


THE ACCOUNTS OF


The Town of Williamsburg


FOR THE PERIOD FROM


SEPT. 24, 1943 TO SEPT. 11, 1945


Made in Accordance with the Provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws


October 29, 1945


77


October 29, 1945


To the Board of Selectmen Mr. Leon B. Sanderson, Chairman Williamsburg, Massachusetts


Gentlemen :


I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Williamsburg for the period from September 24, 1943, to September 11, 1945, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts.


Very truly yours,


Theodore N. Waddell,


Director of Accounts.


78


Mr. Theodore N. Waddell Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston


Sir:


In accordance with your instructions I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Williams- burg for the period from September 24, 1943, the date of the previous examination, to September 11, 1945, and sub- mit the following report thereon:


The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments collecting or disbursing money for the town, or committing bills for collection, were ex- amined, checked, and verified.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined. The recorded receipts were checked with the records of the departments making payments to the treas- urer, and with the other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the payments were com- pared with the treasury warrants approved by the board of selectmen authorizing the treasurer to disburse town funds. The cash balance September 11, 1945, was proved by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement furnished by the bank and by actual count of the cash on hand.


The payments on account of debt and interest were proved by comparison with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file.


The securities, including savings bank books, repre- senting the investment of the trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer were examined and listed, the income being proved and the withdrawals being verified.


79


The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked in detail. The ledger was analyzed, the recorded receipts and payments were checked with the treasurer's cash book, the records of departmental ac- counts receivable were checked with the records of the de- partments committing the bills, and the appropriation ledger accounts were checked with the appropriations and transfers voted by the town, as listed from the town clerk's record of town meetings. A balance sheet, which is ap- pended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on September 11, 1945.


It was necessary to make many adjustments in the accountant's ledger because of his failure to make and post proper and complete ledger entries based on information available to him, because of the failure of department officials sending out bills for collection to notify the ac- countant of the amount or disposition of such bills, and to the failure of the board of assessors to report commitments and abatements of taxes.


The annual town meetings of 1944 and 1945 voted "to authorize the treasurer to pay unpaid bills of previous years out of the current year's appropriations." In this connection attention is called to Section 64, Chapter 44, General Laws, as inserted by Chapter 179, Acts of 1941.


In checking the accountant's ledger, it was found that the board of selectmen had authorized a transfer from the 1944 Chapter 81 highway appropriation to the Adams Road Land Damages appropriation. Attention in this connection is called to the fact that a transfer from one appropriation to another requires a town meeting vote.


The 1945 appropriation for highway construction shows an overdraft amounting to $397.23. It is to be noted that to incur liabilities in excess of an appropriation is a violation of Section 31, Chapter 44, General Laws.


80


The books and accounts of the tax collector were ex- amined and checked. The tax accounts outstanding at the time of the previous examination and the subsequent com- mitment lists of all taxes were audited and compared with the warrants given for their collection. The recorded col- lections and abatements were checked, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the outstanding accounts were added and proved with the accountant's ledger, as ad- justed.


The tax collector's cash balance September 11, 1945, was proved by actual count of the cash on hand.


The financial transactions of the town clerk were ex- amined. The receipts for dog and sporting licenses were checked with the record of licenses issued, and the pay- ments to the state and town treasurers were verified. The town clerk's cash on hand September 11, 1945, was proved by actual count.


The surety bonds filed with the town by the town clerk, town treasurer, and tax collector were examined and found to be in proper form, as was the water collector's bond for the year 1945.


The assessors' computation of the tax rates for the period covered by the audit was examined. It was noted that the amount of appropriations raised in fixing the tax rate for 1944 was $4,380.00 in excess of the amounts voted by the town and certified by the town clerk, while in 1945 the amount raised was $1,000.00 less than the total appro- priations voted by the town meeting.


Abatements of taxes granted by the board of assessors should be reported to the collector promptly, and all abate- ments should be reported to the accountant each month. A copy of each warrant committing taxes to the tax collec- tor should also be given to the town accountant.


81


The recorded receipts for licenses granted by the board of selectmen and issued by the town clerk were checked with the record of licenses granted. The pay- ments to the treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand September 11, 1945, was proved by actual count. The surety bonds filed with the town by individuals to whom liquor licenses were issued were examined and found to be in proper form.


The recorded receipts of the sealer of weights and measures were checked with the record of work done, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand September 11, 1945, was proved by actual count.


The records of accounts receivable of the health, high- way, public welfare, and school departments were ex- amined. The charges were added and reconciled with the commitments as entered on the accountant's ledgers, the recorded collections and abatements were checked, and the outstanding accounts were added and proved with the ad- justed accountant's ledger.


All bills sent out for collection by town departments should be reported to the town accountant promptly.


The recorded receipts of the school department for the sale of material, rent of school halls, and for miscel- laneous charges were checked, and the payments to the treasurer were verified.


The recorded receipts of the librarian for fines were checked. The payments to the treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand September 21, 1945, was counted.


The receipts for milk and oleomargarine licenses were checked with the record of licenses issued, the payments to the treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand Sep- tember 11, 1945, was counted.


82


The books and accounts of the water department were examined and checked. The charges for the sale of water and water services were added and reconciled with the ac- countant's record of commitments, the recorded collections were compared with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were checked, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the accountant's ledger, as ad- justed.


The water collector's cash balance September 11, 1945, was proved by actual count of the cash on hand.


The outstanding tax and departmental accounts, in- cluding water accounts, were verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


It is recommended that prompt action be taken to bring about a complete settlement of the prior years' taxes.


Several of the departmental and water accounts out- standing date as far back at 1936. It is recommended that prompt action be taken to collect these accounts and that if they are determined to be uncollectible, they be abated.


The securities, including savings bank books, repre- senting the investment of the Helen E. James School Fund in custody of the Springfield Safe Deposit and Trust Com- pany were examined and listed. The income was proved and the expenditures were verified.


Appended to this report, in addition to the balance sheet, are tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's cash, summaries of the tax and departmental accounts, to- gether with tables showing the transactions and condition of the trust and investment funds.


83


For the cooperation received from all town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants, and for myself, to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted,


Herman B. Dine,


Assistant Director of Accounts.
