WATER COMMISSIONERS' REPORT.
The Water Commissioners respectfully present to the town their annual report :
The works taken as a whole, are in as satisfactory condition as could be expected.
'The pumps by almost constant repairing are enabled to perform the work required.
The pipes seem to be in good order. There have been no leaks discovered during the year.
The chimney has been lengthened about twenty-five feet, which gives us much better draught.
There have been some alterations made in the boiler, which re- duce the amount of coal consumed, more than ten per cent.
During the month of April, Mr. Snow continued the work on the East extension, which was completed according to contract. Application being made for an extension of the water pipes on the Tower Road, so called, the usual guarantee of four per cent. on cost of construction was given, and the town authorized the commissioners to lay the pipes. The contract was given to Mr. F. A. Snow, for twenty cents per foot, for digging and filling and laying a four inch pipe as far as Mr. J. Underwood's house, a distance of 5860 feet. The pipe cost twenty-seven dollars and twenty-five cents a ton. We also laid, at our own expense, four hundred and fifty feet of 6 in. pipe, from the main line to a point opposite the house of Mr. Trask.
There are thirty-six hydrants. We would recommend that the town allow five dollars each for the use of water in case of fire.
Below will be found a detailed account of the income and ex- penses.

Report of Committee on School-house.
The last annual Warrant (1894-5) contained the following article :-
ARTICLE 11. To see if the Town will enlarge the Center School- house, borrow and appropriate money for the same, and appoint a Building Committee to take charge of the work, and see that it is done before the first of September, 1895, as recommended in the report of the School Committee.
At the annual town meeting this Article was referred to a special committee of seven, consisting of the following : Charles F. Adams, John H. Pierce, Moses W. Kidder, George Flint, Charles S. Wheeler, James L. Chapin, and Charles S. Smith.
To this Committee was also referred so much of the Report of the School Committee in 1894-5 as related to the matter in question with intructions to consider the whole subject, and to report at a later day either to a special town meeting to be there- after called, or to the next annual town meeting.
The Committee has fully considered the subject, and would respectfully report as follows :-
"Schools in the woods," as they are not inaptly called, such as the North School has been and now is, may be said to be in Massachusetts towns of the better class, things of the past. In conducting them all grading is out of the question, and the educational results are correspondingly poor. These schools, therefore, universally abandoned in towns like Lincoln, are con- tinued only in the poorer and more sparsely settled communities. That, under these circumstances, the North School should be permanently continued seems to your Committee inadvisable.
58
The only question then is as to when and how it shall be dis- continued.
The experiment of bringing the children of the North to the Center School heretofore attempted, did not prove a success. The Center school-house is limited in capacity, and does not contain accommodations for any system of graded schools in addition to the High School. Its ventilation also is defective, and the moment the school-rooms become crowded the air is so bad as materially to interfere with school work, as well as to be injurious to the health of the scholars.
The Center School also does not stand upon land owned by the town, nor is it connected with a playground. All the children at recess, - and where children are transported from a distance to school, those so transported between school sessions, as well as during the recess,- are necessarily forced under present circum- stances into the street for play and recreation. While this is bad enough under any circumstances, it is a state of affairs which could not be permitted to continue if the town is to adopt as a permanent school policy the system of transporting children from distant homes to the school-house, there to remain from the beginning of the morning session until the end of the session in the afternoon. If such a plan is adopted, a playground for those children must be provided. They cannot be forced into the streets, and kept there.
The Committee, therefore, found itself forced to consider in the first place the location of a school-house at the Center suitable for the reception of the children not only living in its vicinity but brought to it from a distance. That school-house also must of necessity be large enough to accommodate not only a High School but a system of graded subordinate schools. In other words, it must have at least three, if not four, adequate, well-ventilated school-rooms, in addition to a playground.
The first question for the Committee to decide, was whether such a school-house and playground could be best provided at or near the site upon which the present school-house stands, or else- where. All the ground upon which the present school-house stands belongs either to the church or to Mr. James L. Chapin. To provide the necessary accommodation at this point, so far as space is concerned, it would be necessary, if the present building were retained, to move it a sufficient distance back from the
59
street, and to take not only the land upon which the building when moved would stand, but also a sufficient adjoining space to provide the children with an ample playground.
As a permanent site for the school-house and play-ground to be owned by the town, the location did not seem to the majority of your Committee satisfactory or desirable. A playground for children, especially if they are to pass the entire day at the school-house, should be sheltered, and have a southerly exposure. The land in the rear of the existing school-house inclines to the north and west, and is ill adapted for playground purposes, especially in winter. On the other hand, nearly opposite the existing school-house, close to the site upon which the former Globe tavern stands, there is an excellent open space, admirably adapted for school-house and playground use. The Committee examined numerous other sites, but found none in their judgment so advantageous as this.
A majority of the Committee is, therefore, of opinion that the town should take the necessary steps to acquire at the earliest possible date either the whole or a sufficient part of the old Globe tavern site upon which to place a school-house, with provision for a playground about it of at least an acre in extent.
The site of school-house and playground being thus provided, it was necessary next to consider the question of the building itself. One of three courses could be pursued. Either the present Center school building could be retained as a High School, while an entirely new building, with accommodations for a system of graded subordinate schools similar to those in South Lincoln, could be erected on the land hereafter to be acquired ; or a new building might be erected on this land adequate for the accommo- dation of the High School, as well as the subordinate graded schools ; or, thirdly, the present building could be moved from the site where it now is, and, in an enlarged shape, placed upon the land to be acquired.
The Committee cannot recommend retaining the present Center School as a High School, and the building of another school- house for the subordinate graded schools upon a different site. So doing would involve an annual expenditure for heating, janitor's work, etc., which would materially increase the present school appropriation.
This alone, in a town the number of whose school children is so limited as in Lincoln, decides the question. It is better, wherever
60
so doing is reasonably practicable, to concentrate the schools under one roof.
Were the town financially in as good a position as it should be, the majority of the Committee would be strongly inclined to recommend the sale of the present Center school building and the erection of a wholly new building, with all the modern improve- ments, so far as heating and ventilation are concerned, upon the site which it is now proposed to purchase. Under existing con- ditions, however, the Committee is not prepared to recommend this course. Economy seems from every point of view at present. desirable.
It only remains, therefore, to remove the present school-house from the site where it now is to that, the purchase of which is recommended by the Cominittee.
The Committee have caused careful inquiry to be made, and submit the following as an estimate of the approximate cost of the work recommended :-
The moving of the school building,
$400
Cellar and foundations,
500
Cost of addition,
2,500
New appliances for heating and ventilation,
500
$3,900
Add 15 .per cent. for contingencies,
585
Total,
$4,485
The cost of the land which it is proposed to acquire is not included in the foregoing estimate.
The majority of the Committee, therefore, recommend that the necessary land be acquired, and that the present school building be moved to it, and there enlarged and remodelled.
The town, however, may not feel prepared at this time to enter at once upon so large an expenditure as that proposed, in which case your committee would recommend that a temporary arrange- ment of another character be effected. There are at present but eighteen scholars in the High School, with no prospective increase of the number, costing the town, as our statistics show, not far from $75 each annually. The Committee cannot recommend a continuance of the North School as now conducted. They would, therefore, recommend both as a measure of economy, and to secure better educational advantages, that the scholars now
61
attending the North School be transported to the Center. They would then further recommend that provision be made, if possible, for sending the eighteen scholars of the High School to the Concord High School, thus vacating the room in the present school building now occupied for high school purposes, and making it available for the better grading of the grammar and primary schools. Were an arrangement of this character made, it is probable that, so far as the teaching of the scholars both of the High and of the other schools, it would cost the town no more than the existing arrange- ment ; while the large items of expense for mending and altering the present schoolhouse could be postponed to another year, or until the town is prepared to erect a proper combined high and grammar school building on land hereafter to be acquired. In any event, however, the majority of your committee are of the opinion that the sum of $500 should be appropriated to supply the present school-house with new and proper appliances for heating and ventilation.
The Committee, therefore, submit the following alternative votes for the consideration of the town :
Voted : That the School Committee be instructed to acquire the necessary land in some convenient central locality for the accom- modation of the combined high and grammar school and adjacent playground, and that the sum of $. be appropriated therefor.
Voted : That when the necessary land shall have been acquired in accordance with the foregoing vote, the school committee be instructed to prepare the necessary plans and cause the necessary estimates to be made for the transfer of the present center school building to the site thus acquired, and the subsequent remodelling of said building, and submit such plans and approximate estimates to the town at a special town meeting to be hereafter called ; or, as an alternative, the Committee would recommend the passage of the following :
Voted: That the School Committee be instructed to make arrangements for the transportation of the scholars, who, during the past year have attended the North School, to the Center School, and thereupon discontinue the North School ; and the sum of $ is hereby appropriated to defray the cost of such transfer during the coming year.
62
Voted : That the School Committee is hereby instructed to ascertain from the School Committee of the town of Concord what arrangement, if any, can be made to receive and provide for the High School scholars of Lincoln, in the Concord High School, and the cost per scholar of so doing ; and that said School Com- mittee have full power to make an arrangement of that nature, if any is practicable, and also an arrangement for the transportation of said scholars from Lincoln to Concord, and the expense of such arrangement, if made, be defrayed out of the school appro- priation for the current year.
