REPORT OF THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
At the beginning of 1921 the board divided into three sections, one member taking the division of dairying, dis- eases, settlements and laws, another, nuisances, garbage and sewage and the third, slaughtering, enforcement of rules and schools. This has worked out very well and we feel that it is a most efficient system.
Dairy inspection has again been taken up as necessitated by State law and all premises, where milk is produced, have been inspected and tabulated. In some cases follow-up work was necessary. These inspections are ultimately bound to bring up the standard of milk produced in the town.
The number of contagious and communicable diseases this year has been rather high, owing to an epidemic of measles early in the year.
There have been several communicable cases in other towns and cities, residents of Duxbury, for which this board was obliged to settle.
At all times this department will be glad to answer ques- tions or make suggestions regarding health problems to any of the citizens. The board meets the first day of each month, in their room at the Town Office building. Follow- ing is a list of the communicable diseases in town for the year 1921; chickenpox 12, diphtheria 1, measles 79, mumps 12, tuberculosis 1, typhoid fever 1.
Respectfully submitted,
PAUL C. PETERSON, Chairman. CHARLES W. EATON, Secretary. EUGENE E. COVELL,

REPORT OF FOREST WARDEN.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens of Duxbury :
We have had our usual number of grass fires, but a very small acreage and no timber land burned. Each year I seem to get more co-operation from the people. The look- out towers locate fires quickly and the telephone operators call the men intelligently. There is one thing that I wish to call your attention to and that is the slash and permit laws. Our State Forester says they must be enforced, so am calling your attention to it at this time.
I have at Herrick's garage, a small truck loaded with extinguishers and water, that must be given great credit for quick work. I hope to have one somewhat similar at North Duxbury, as it can be placed there at a very small cost to the town, and could be used on buildings as well as grass and woods fires.
Thanking you for your co-operation in the past year, I remain,
Respectfully yours,
H. E. MERRY, Forest Warden.
REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens of Duxbury :
We have had several building fires and chimney fires in the past year but have had no very serious losses. One of our most serious losses was the old landmark, known as Ford's Store. It has been investigated very carefully, but no satisfactory decision could be reached as to the cause. it seems such a pity to lose these old landmarks, which, if
-62-
they mean nothing to strangers, mean a great deal in their sentimental value to Duxbury.
North Duxbury and Ashdod section are without adequate fire protection. We are intending this year to make some arrangements which will give them the protection they so much need.
Would say the best thing next to extinguishers to put out er control small fires is bicarbonate of soda, it can't freeze or corrode and when thrown on a fire develops a gas that will smother the fire almost instantly. We have an ample supply at our storeroom at the Poor Farm, and by bringing receptacles it can be obtained there at any time.
The engines are in good condition, but will have to buy about five hundred (500) feet of hose. This is the first hose that has been purchased for replacement.
Respectfully submitted,
H. E. MERRY, Fire Chief.
REPORT OF MOTH DEPARTMENT.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, Gentlemen :
I submit the following report of moth work done since last report, continued from December 16, 1920.
Finished up the street tree treating and orchard work about May 25, 1921. It was then time to start the summer spraying. Sprayed the road sides and cemetery. Stopped work July 1st, 1921.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN D. MORRISON, Local Superintendent.

STANDISH SHORE ROAD COMMITTEE.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen,
Town of Duxbury,
The Committee chosen at the anunal Town Meeting, March 12, 1921, 'To consider the matter of laying out a highway leading from the southerly end of Columbus Ave- nue, southerly, and westerly to Standish Street" submits the following report of progress.
April 1st, 1921, the Committee organized with Edward S. O'Neil, Chairman, Charles S. Clark, Clerk. At the invita- tion of the chairman, Mr. F. B. Knapp sat with the Com- mittee and his expert knowledge has been helpful, and is appreciated.
The congestion of automobiles at the end of Columbus avenue, on Sundays and holidays, which was the immediate cause for the election of the Committee was alleviated by the re-surfacing of Massasoit road and Mayflower avenue. Allen's lane, if put in safe condition for the summer months would afford a temporary outlet for the automobile traffic which has no occasion to stop.
The Committee made several plans for a new road from the southerly end of Columbus avenue, southerly and west- erly, through private land and gave a public hearing to all interested, on August 6, 1921. Only ten or twelve per- sons were present, no one spoke in favor of the project. Mr. E. H. Packard said the Directors of the Standish Shore Improvement Association were opposed to anything being done at present. Several others also opposed.
As the congestion which caused the petition to be present- ed to the Selectmen has been largely overcome, and as most of the petitioners request nothing be done at present, respecting a new road, southerly and westerly, from Colum- bus avenue, your Committee reports the facts and seeks further instructions.

The land at Standish Shore and south and west of Cap- tain's Hill is about all the undeveloped shore property in town. Some comprehensive plan to insure the best result in the future seems desirable for all. If any part is to be reserved for public use, now is the time to secure it.
·
The Standish Monument Association propose to acquire the site of the house of Miles Standish, erect a suitable tab- let or marker, and present it to the town of Duxbury. This will attract many visitors and direct attention to the land thereabout. If small lots are sold, a beach or park, for the benefit of all townspeople, may be impossible except at prohibitive cost. The same difficulty respecting roads as is now before us will be repeated.
The traffic to the monument, the sites of the homes of Brewster and Standish and around the'shore has increased rapidly the last few years, and is bound to become very much greater as time goes on. As shown on the accompany- ing map, Columbus avenue comes to a "dead end" in a network of streets so placed that as they now exist no satisfactory circuit is possible and further development on these lines will mean many sharp, dangerous corners on a main thoroughfare.
The necessary modifications could now be made and a really good circuit laid out connecting Columbus avenue with Standish and Crescent streets with exceedingly little damage to improved property. But development is going on so rapidly that each year the difficulty naturally in- creases.
If all can agree on a well defined plan of improvement, the Town can obtain property of the largest taxable value ; its citizens an opportunity to enjoy the delights of the sea- shore, soon to be the privilege of the few.
These great possibilities have been in mind while con- sidering the "extension of Columbus avenue, southerly and 'westerly, to a connection with Standish street." Even if a
Duxbury Five
-66-
general plan covering the whole area and making suitable provision for the future welfare of this section and of the Town cannot now be evolved; either or both of two partial plans would be well worth while :-
1. To continue Columbus avenue on a curved line join- ing Spring street to the site of the home of Miles Standish.
2. Broadening Allen's lane and giving it good connec- tions with Sagamore road at the east end and both Crescent and Standish streets at the west end.
Your Committee feels confident that such changes as are proposed will help the development of the Standish Shore in the satisfactory manner so much desired by the present residents but that this must be done with their co-operation and not against their opposition.
The Committee submits this report as one of progress and asks that further time be given them to study the subject with the instructions or suggestions of the Town.

REPORT OF TREE WARDEN.
To the Citizens of Duxbury :
The work in this department has been trimming and mulching trees on several streets in town.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN D. MORRISON, Tree Warden.

REPORT OF CEMETERY TRUSTEES.
Soon after the annual appropriation was made a squad of men was put to work removing dead trees and limbs in Mayflower cemetery, this work followed up by the raking, made inroads on our money, but we were able to make a respectable showing and are in a better condition to com- mence the season's work than last year.
The trees were given two thorough sprayings, but many have died and will have to be taken out this spring. We should finish cutting out the dead wood in that section not done last year; put in at least one catch basin and make extensive repairs on avenues cut through by heavy motor carriages and this, added to the ever-increasing incidentals. calls for an appropriation equal to that of 1921.
We want to impress on the citizens the need of more lot space, having available at present less than forty such, some of them requiring extensive grading before use. The following memoranda may help those not familiar with the history of this department of the Town to a better knowledge of conditions :
Duxbury has within its limits five cemeteries, four of these owned by the Town, viz. Standish, not now used; Ding- ley at North Duxbury, not now used; Ashdod, containing one and one-half acres, divided into one fifty family lots, and Mayflower, on Tremont street, containing twenty acres, divided into one thousand family lots, estimated to contain seven thousand burials, the first burial said to have been in 1787. The last addition of six acres was given by The La. dies' Cemetery Association. This tract was ideal from a landscape point of view but not available for burials until a large amount of grading is done and then does not seem desirable to many obliged to make a selection.
Some years ago the Town was given a tract of woodland on the south side of Mayflower street, for cemetery uses.
-68-
This lot contains about seven and one-fourth acres, fronts on Tremont street and is practically level and capable of de- velopment with reasonable expense, into what will be our needs for many years to come. We recommend that action be taken this year by an article in Town Warrant and a sum appropriated for this use.
Respectfully submitted,
BY THE TRUSTEES.

REPORT OF THE STREET DEPARTMENT.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens of Duxbury,
Gentlemen :
I submit the following report of work done on the streets during the past year.
The general road work was completed in the spring and what repairing was needed for winter travel has been at- tended to. It was necessary as a matter of economy on some of the streets where there was a great deal of traffic to use oil to keep them in proper condition, also over three miles of the stone road was covered with tarvia and sand for a seal coat.
The work at the Town Landing off Mattakeesett court has been done and has proven satisfactory, so far.
The work on Massasoit road and Mayflower avenue, which was delayed last year, was taken up and finished, also Josselyn avenue and Careswell street were resurfaced.
The road from Hall's Corner to Temperance Hall was completed within the limit of the appropriation of 1920 plus the $10,000 granted by the State.
We have on hand 250 barrels of asphalt which was con- demned by the State Commissioners as not being suitable for a road of such heavy traffic, which I would suggest could be used on streets of less travel.
The machinery has been properly housed and cared for but will need some minor repairs and overhauling for the upkeep and use for the coming season.
Respectfully,
EDWARD S. O'NEIL,
Superintendent of Streets.

REPORT OF THE DUXBURY LIBRARY.
The Library has had a banner year, having served more 1
people and issued more books than ever before during the same period of time. The total number of books issued was 15,561. Of this number, 4,415 were non-fiction and 2,697 were sent through basket delivery to North Duxbury, South Duxbury, Ashdod, High street and Island Creek. The Li- brary was open 156 days for the use of the public.
Accessions to the Library for the year were 508 volumes. Of these 297 were bought with Library funds, and 211 were received as gifts.
" The Trustees have made a thorough over-hauling of the storeroom in the Library, and much useless matter has been eliminated. Five hundred books were selected for re-bind- ing. It is hoped to have them in circulation in the imme- diate future.
