Finances


All of the original issue of $55,000 of Schoolhouse bonds have been retired up to January 1st, 1923, except $6,000. Funds are in the hands of the Sinking and Trust Fund Com- missioners to retire these bonds as soon as they become due.


The financial condition of the Town otherwise as on January 1, 1923, is as follows :


The outstanding bonded indebtedness on account of the Water Works is, as reported by the Treasurer, $63,000; there is available in the Sinking Fund, to retire the bonds at maturity, securities and cash of the value of $35,312.13, this, together with the reported uncollected water bills and current cash on


51


hand of $3,424.49, leaves a net indebtedness of $24,263.38. This is by far the most favorable condition that the Water Department has ever reported. The Water Department, how- ever, is indebted to the Town Treasury on account of money raised by taxes some years since for $4,712.00.


The Treasurer's report shows the balance in the treasury on January 1st, 1923, $29,644.77. The Collector reports un- collected taxes of January 1st of $8,731.96, making the total available for the treasury $38,376.73. This most unusual state- ment of the financial condition of the Town is accounted for not by any increase in the amount of the taxes received from the State on account of Income Taxes collected, as that item is some $3,000 less than that paid in the previous year, but the Town has received from the State on account of National Bank taxes collected the largely increased amount of more than $20,000. However, as this tax is contested by some of the National Banks in the Courts and as no ultimate decision in connection with the matter has been reached by the Courts, it is not improbable that a large part of this amount of $20,000 may have to be returned by the Town of Lincoln to the State ; it is, therefore, unwise for the Town to count on it as an actual balance which can be used as the Town directs. If the Courts decide that it is legitimate for the State to collect it, then the Town may safely appropriate this money. Aside from this contingent sum, however, the financial condition is as follows: available in the treasury approximately $9,000.00 and uncollected taxes of $8,731.96, or a total available of approximately $17,731.96.


The money available in the Town treasury for the Lincoln cemeteries is, as reported by the Town Treasurer, $1,026.44.


The business of the Town, as it has been conducted by the various officers and departments of the Town, is embodied in their printed reports.


Respectfully submitted, CHARLES S. SMITH, . JOHN F. FARRAR, ROBERT D. DONALDSON, Selectmen of Lincoln.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS


To the Board of Selectmen :


I herewith submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1922:


The condition of the roads last spring was about the same as the previous year. In January and February there was very little snow work to do. In March, the gravel roads were scraped, and the ruts filled in with crushed stone; mudholes and washouts on some of the crossroads were filled in, and the roads oiled and put in good condition for the season.


The tar surfaced roads were patched with peastone and Tarvia K. P., followed with an application of Tarvia B and sand.


The new work done on the Codman road by the State, County, and Town, took a little over five months. Approxi- mately 4,000 was built, from 18 ft. to 20 ft. wide, costing about $21,000. The expenditures on this road were approxi- mately as follows :


Teams and labor,


$7,900.00


Gravel and stone,


8,450.00


Oil and Tarvia,


3,200.00


Coal and wood,


250.00


Culvert Pipe,


50.00


Roller man,


850.00


$20,700.00


Also, this department has done work for the Moth Depart- ment, in addition to carting ashes away from the Town Hall, Library, and Schoolhouses.


53


The following is a partial list of what the men and teams have done throughout the year :


JANUARY


Most of this month was spent chopping wood and cleaning up brush.


FEBRUARY


There was snow work to be done in this month, and any spare time was used in teaming sand for covering Tarvia and Oil.


MARCH


The first part of this month was spent teaming sand; the balance in putting gravel on the road near Mr. Higginson's farm, and filling in the ruts with crushed stone.


APRIL


Practically the entire time was spent in scraping the roads, filling the ruts with crushed stone, and patching the tar-sur- faced roads.


MAY and JUNE


During these months, the work on patching the roads was finished, tarvia and sand put on the tar-surfaced roads, most of the gravel roads oiled, work done for the Moth Department, · and tumbled-down fencing in different parts of the town replaced by new.


JULY to DECEMBER


Practically all of the time from July to the middle of December was spent on the Codman road; the balance of December in teaming sand and breaking out the snow-filled roads.


54


The money expended this year for maintenance of the Highway is approximately as follows :


Hay, Grain, and Straw,


$1,300.00


Stone, gravel, and sand,


1,500.00


Tarvia and Oil,


4,500.00


Supplies,


650.00


Blacksmith,


900.00


Rent,


425.00


Repairs,


200.00


Water, light, and telephone,


60.00


Snow work,


200.00


Charges for doctors,


20.00


Superintendent's salary, labor, etc.,


5,145.00


Total,


$14,900.00


Amount of credits due the Highway Department, 3,270.00


Total spent for maintenance and upkeep of


Highway Department for year, approximately,


$11,630.00


I have to report the loss of a horse during the year, as well as the disposition of another which was unfit for the work. This will necessitate buying a pair of horses this spring to carry on the work to advantage; otherwise, the condition of the Highway Department is about the same as last year.


The guide boards are in fair condition, but it will be neces- sary to repair and repaint some of them the coming year.


Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM H. SHERMAN, Superintendent of Streets.

REPORT OF LINCOLN TOWN NURSE


To the Selectmen of Lincoln :


Gentlemen :


I herewith submit the following report of the Committee appointed by you to direct the work of the Lincoln Town Nurse.


The work of the District Nurse has been carried on for another year under Miss Carolyn Viets with continued suc- cess, and the results have been as follows: From January 1st, 1922 to January 1st, 1923, bedside care, 106; calls for treat- ment, 261; night calls, 6; confinement cases, 5; school inspec- tion, 168; follow-up school work, 167; children taken to the Tonsil, Adenoid, and Eye Clinics, 10; supervision of the Dental and Underweight Clinics held in Lincoln, visits to the Sudbury Schools, 271/2 days.


The total amount of running expenses for the year has been $163.62, while fees collected amount to $165.60, leaving a bal- ance of $1.98.


There has been an average amount of sickness in Lincoln, but no marked epidemics. There were several cases of chicken- pox in the lower school, but its further spread was promptly arrested. An important aspect of the nurse's work is in the school where cases of illness are promptly followed up. Under her care, the children are taught personal hygiene; also defects of the eyes, ears, throat, and underweight are noted and reported at once to the School Physician for treatment and advice. The work of the nurse has increased during the year both in variety and usefulness. Although the work in Lincoln is apparently increasing, Miss Viets will still be able for a


56


time to carry on the work in the Sudbury Schools, from which part of her salary is obtained.


The Committee is indebted again this year to the Lincoln Branch of the Red Cross for the use of the nurse's car, and the upkeep of the car.


The second year of the experiment of this work in Lincoln in the opinion of the Committee clearly shows the need and importance of a Public Health Nurse, and the Committee sincerely hopes the Town will vote to continue the work.


Respectfully submitted, SUSAN M. LORING,


Chairman of the Committee on the District Nurse


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH FOR THE YEAR ENDING DEC. 31, 1922


The following cases of contagious diseases have been re- ported during the year :


7 cases of Chicken Pox.


1 case of Measles.


2 cases of Tuberculosis.


1 case of Scarlet Fever.


16 cases of Influenza.


2 cases of Pneumonia.


1 case of Typhoid.

COMMITTEE ON THE HOUSING OF THE ANIMALS AND EQUIPMENT OF THE TOWN


The Committee appointed at the Annual Town Meeting in March 1922 to determine the best method of procedure for the Town to follow in the housing of the animals and equipment of the Town, reports as follows :


We find upon investigation that the Town is now paying the sum of $500 yearly for the use of part of the Pickle Factory, so-called. The horses and all of the Highway and Moth Department equipment are well and conveniently housed. The location is central and it seems to the Committee that the cost to the Town is not incommensurate with the value received. Therefore, we recommend that the Town make no change in the present arrangements.


Respectfully submitted, C. LEE TODD, GEORGE G. TARBELL, WILLIAM H. SHERMAN, ANDREW J. DOUGHERTY, JR.,


Committee.
