REPORT OF THE BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS
The Water Commissioners respectfully submit the follow- ing report for the year 1924.
The pumps and pumping station are in good condition. The pipe system has given less trouble than usual. A few years ago the station road cement pipe had several bad leaks, which were repaired with much trouble and expense. On this account it was the plan to renew this pipe at once. The past two years there have been fewer leaks, therefore the Board plans to lay a convenient portion of new pipe each year, which it can do under the oversight of the Superintendent, and paying for it from surplus. Another reason for this change of plan is the fact that the cost of laying the Coan ex- tension, which was completed in early fall, was about one half the sum of the lowest bid for the job.

TREE WARDEN'S REPORT
I herewith submit a brief report on the work done on the trees and against the Gypsy and Brown Tail Moths for the year ending December 31, 1924.
The methods used in handling the Gypsy Moth while not so extensive, were practically the same as in past years, with the exception that the spraying along our roadsides was not done this year. I am pleased to say that the Gypsy Moth in- festation is not as severe as it has been, conditions as a whole show a marked improvement. We found it necessary to go through the Orchards and remove the Brown Tail Moth webs again this year to prevent further spread, but it is rea- sonable to expect very little if any further damage from this insect. The work of removing the broken branches from the trees and cutting the brush and dead trees along the roadsides has been continued this year.
While we may not have to spend a large amount of money on Moth Work this year we can spend the money to good advantage cutting brush and trimming our roadside trees. The total expenditure of this department is $3,743.86 of which there has been charged to property owners $1,169.60 on account of private work, leaving a net cost of the town $2,574.26. I recommend that $3,000.00 be appropriated for Moth and Tree Work.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN J. KELLIHER.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE LINCOLN PUBLIC LIBRARY
The Trustees submit on the following pages the reports of the Librarian and Treasurer for the year ending December 31, 1924.
The chimney of the library has cracked, either through frost or from being hit by lightning, causing the chimney to lean inward. This necessitates rebuilding it, the cost of which can be met only by an additional appropriation from the Town.
The Trustees therefore ask for an appropriation of thirteen hundred dollars for the year ensuing.
GEORGE G. TARBELL, Chairman of the Trustees.
