The prevalence of pediculosis capitis (head lice ) among the school children became so marked that, at the request of the school committee the board of health sent a district nurse to the homes of the children reported, Subsequently they were treated at the school.
No complaints have been received by the board on
102
account of nuisance alleged to exist. Any complaint must be in writing, stating the facts and signed by the complainant.
The board did not appoint any inspector of meats during the year. The work ordinarily done by that official has been performed by one of the members of the board of health.
Respectfully submitted,
EDWARDS W. HERMAN, R. D. DONALDSON, MARTIN M. WELCH.

WATER COMMISSIONER'S REPORT
The Water Commissioners herewith present their Annual Report :-
Two extensions of pipe have been made in accordance with the votes passed at the last annual meeting. First, 5,517 feet of 4-inch cast iron pipe being layed from the corner near C. E. Wheeler's place to the Weston line, the work of digging and laying was done in a very satis- factory manner by P. Malloy & Son, Waltham.
The total cost is as follows :-
Pipe, $1,443 25
Digging and Laying, at 30c. per foot,
1,655 10
90 yards Rock at $4.00
360 00

Sundries,

Total, $3,718 11
About 1,480 feet of 2-inch galvanized pipe has been removed from the Ehlert Road, socalled, and replaced with the same amount of 4-inch wood pipe.
Cost of the same being :--
Pipe,
$422 56

Hydrant and Gates,
46 89
Digging and Laying,
420 98
Labor and Superintendent,
12 00
Fittings,
3 50
Total, $913 93
120
The 2-inch galvanized pipe has been used in part to make an extension from opposite Dr. Herman's to the cottage of Dr. R. L. DeNormandie and a further exten- sion near Baker's Bridge.
There have been eighteen new services connected during the year, a large proportion of which were made so late in the season that but little revenue appears in this year's receipts.
Ten of these services have been on the old system and consequently will materially help in next year's expenses.
The Commissioners have during the year considered the advisability of putting in an Electric Pump in place of the Deane Pump, the time having arrived when it will require the service of another man in the summer months if all the pumping is to be done by steam.
With an Electric Pump the work can be operated as heretofore by one man, with some help for outside work.
An estimate has been made by Mr. Herbert Nash, Jr., Electrical Engineer, and his letter is made a part of this report.
We recommend that the Town authorize the Commis- sioners to install an Electric Pump as soon as practicable.
We are pleased to state that the case of Francis Smith vs. The Town of Lincoln, on account of taking additional land before the Pumping Station was built, has been decided and the Town has now a title to the land.
It will be seen by the Trial Balance Sheet, that the amount of Uncollected Rates is considerably more than any of the past few years. Your Committee recommend that the Town pass the following vote :---
Voted, That when Water Rates due July 1 in any year remain unpaid on Oct. 1, a notice shall be sent to the delinquent and if such rates remain unpaid on Oct. 15,
121
the water may be shut off at any time without further notice.
Respectfully,
GEORGE L. CHAPIN, JOSEPH S. HART, WILLIAM H. SHERMAN.
Boston, Feb. 1, 1913.
MR. GEORGE L. CHAPIN, Chairman,
Board of Water Commissioners, Town of Lincoln, Mass.
Dear Sir:
In accordance with your request, I have prepared for you the following information on the proposition to install one or more electric pumps in pumping station of the Town of Lincoln.
I have carefully looked into the merits of various types of water pumps operated by electric power and believe that the most satisfactory pump would be of the centri- fugal type operated on the same shaft as the motor and not geared.
The plunger types are quite complicated and require more attention. The general cost of up-keep is greater than that of the centrifugal.
Everything considered the latter type is more efficient and economical. It is being used with great success in many pumping plants throughout the country.
During the past year your present station pumped 80,890,000 gallons of water against a head of 160 feet. Considering your local conditions at present I believe
122
that you should install one centrifugal pump with a ca- pacity of 400 gallons per minute. Under the existing power rates of the Edison Company, a pump of this capacity would handle your requirements more economi- cally than a pump of larger capacity. It would be neces- sary to operate the smaller unit for longer periods to pump a given amount of water but the electric power rates are such that the average unit cost for power would be less.
Electric pumps require no regular attendance other than starting and stopping and an occasional cleaning and can be operated continually for indefinite periods as the demand for water requires. Your engineer could start the pump and close the station and utilize his time in other work for the Town and return only when he believes a sufficient amount of water has been pumped into the reservoir. An installation of this type is simple and practically fool-proof and really does not require the service of an engineer as in the case of a steam pump.
When the demand for water has increased beyond the safe capacity of one pump another similar unit may be installed, which probably would be required only during the summer months or at times of emergencies.
At the present time the most highly recommended pump is manufactured by the DeLaval Steam Turbine Co. of Trenton, N. J., and which is sold by the Power Equipment Co. of 131 State Street, Boston. It is con- structed of the best material, is extremely rugged and has a guaranteed efficiency. (See specifications and catalogue ). The pump can be easily installed within your present plant and at a comparatively slight expense.
I have prepared the following figures on the cost of operating one of these pumps using the present water requirements of your Town as a basis for my estimate. I also show the actual costs of the steam plant for the last year as furnished me by you.
123
(1) Cost of pumping by electricity : 80,890,000 gallons water-160 foot head.
72,800 Kilowatt hours per annum. (See Rate B. Edison Rate Book )
Cost of power at 2.34 cents per Kilowatt hour, $1,715.00 Oil, Waste, etc., 10.00
Attendance,
120.00
Interest on investment and depreciation,
150.00
(10% of $1,500.00. See cost of installation
below. )
Total Cost, $1,995.00
(2) Cost of pumping by steam :.-
Engineer's Salary,
$1,000.00
Fuel,
1,365.00
Oil, Packing, Repairs, etc., (average yearly ), 250.00
$2,615.00
The above figures show a saving by using electric power of $620.00 per year.
The question of installing an electric pump really comes down to the question as to just how much labor the Town is willing to charge to the cost of operating the plant. I arbitrarily have figured $120 per year or $10 per month which in may estimation is ample.
The Town should consider the fact that the cost of fuel per ton has steadily increased while in the other hand the Edison Company is gradually reducing their rates for electric power.
In figuring the cost of pumping by steam I did not include the interests and depreciation of the present plant.
If the boiler and steam pumps are properly protected while they remain idle the depreciation should not in- crease materially.
Estimated Cost of installing one 400 gallon DeLaval
Centrifugal Pump :-
One 400 gallon pump complete with 220 volts,
