REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS
No unusual or unnecessary work in connection with the cemeteries has been attempted by the commissioners during the past year, principally on account of the difficulty -of secur- ing labor and on account of the high price of the same. The cemeteries have, however, been kept in a neat and attractive condition.
During the year the senior member of the Commissioners, Mr. Julius E. Eveleth, has died. Mr. Eveleth has always taken a very keen interest in the cemetery work and has been a valued member of the Commission. His associates on the Board will miss his genial and gentlemanly presence as they will also miss his wise advice and counsel.
We trust the Town will be able to select a man who will take as deep an interest and who will in all probability have a long term of service before him, and it seems desirable that a man should be elected to the Commission who can in all rea- sonable probability continue as commissioner from year to year so that the Commission can work out comprehensive improve- ments, which would not be possible otherwise.

REPORT OF BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS
The Water Commissioners present herewith their annual report :-
During the year 1918-1919 twelve regular and four special meetings were held, at which W. H. Sherman and S. Smith were present. Little but routine work has come before the Board this year. Again few leaks have appeared, the most serious and most expensive being on the old cement lined pipe on Pierce's Hill, which was once struck by lightning and prob- ably jarred. Here the line was dug out in 4 places the past year, and replaced by about 25 lengths of iron pipe. In late years the Board has been fortunate in being able to borrow or buy from Concord or Waltham what little pipe it needed for repairs, the pipe yard being empty, but for this replace- ment it was necessary to buy a carload of 100 lengths, 69 of which are now in the pipe-yard. It is very probable that this pipe will soon be used to replace more cement lined pipe.
In the Spring of 1918 a few mains and many services were frozen and after paying Concord for thawing Lincoln pipes, the Board decided to fit out an electric thawing apparatus for the benefit of its patrons. Therefore a coil of wire, which is stored at the Pumping Station, was secured from the Edison Company at a cost of $317.05, and an apparatus was set up under the supervision of Mr. MacRae and the Edison Com- pany. The pipes were thawed at an expense of $550.00, the cost of thawing private services being $257.50, $167.50 of which has not yet been collected. If these bills remain un- paid, the Board will feel reluctant in thawing out services for the owners if occasion arises again.
The electric pump has done all the pumping and is in good condition. The steam pump is in readiness to start and the boilers have been examined and passed, but it is very doubtful if they would stand the strain of much pumping. One of the
109
boilers has been on the market, but no good offers have been received.
While the reservoir is kept full practically all the time, the Town might face a serious situation if the electric pump stopped for a time. The Board warned the Town of this fact a year ago, but no action was taken, and while warning the Town again it wishes to impress upon the inhabitants the gravity of the situation,-the possibility of the Town without water. Still Pumps are expensive now, and the old one would not sell for much in a trade. Like most machinery, pumps are being improved all the time, and may sell cheaper, therefore the board, mindful of the risks above mentioned, rather than recommend buying a new pump immediately, would recom- mnend waiting until the need seemed more pressing, and, if possible, until prices decrease.
The profit and loss sheet shows the financial condition of the water works. Most of the increase in expense was due to thawing pipes last winter.
