shall in no case be removed in any carriage used in conveying passengers.
Reg. 23. When a person who has been sick with any of the diseases specified in Regulation 10 has recovered or died, . the Board of Health, upon notification by the physicians in at- tendance, that the house is ready for disinfection, shall pro- ceed to disinfect said house in such a manner as it shall deem proper, provided that in cases of scarlet fever at least three weeks have elapsed since the reporting of the sickness.
Reg. 24. No pupil affected with whooping cough, mumps or chickenpox, shall be permitted to attend school until fully recovered.
See Public Statutes, Chap. 80, 76: "and whoever obstructs the selectmen. Board of Health, or its agent, in us- ing such means to prevent the spreading of the infection, or wilfully removes, obliterates, defaces or handles the red flags, or other signals so displayed, shall forfeit, for each offence not less than ten nor more than one hundred dollars."
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES AMONG DOMESTIC ANIMALS.
Reg. 25. Whoever has knowledge of, or has good reason to suspect, the existence of a contagious disease among any species of domestic animals, whether such knowledge is ob- tained by personal examination or otherwise, shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Board of Health.
Reg. 26. No person, except as ordered or directed by the Board of Health, shall drive or cause to pass through said town, from place to place, or from place to place therein, ani- mals diseased or infected with pleuro-pneumonia, farcy, glan- ders, or rabies, or any other contagious or infectious disease.
Reg. 27. Persons having the care and custody of animals diseased or infected with pleuro-pneumonia, farcy, glanders, or rabies, or any other contagious or infectious disease, whether their own property or otherwise, and having received an order for their isolation, shall neither sell, swap, trade, give, nor in any way dispose of such animals; nor drive, nor work,
186
nor move, nor allow them to be moved away, from the place of isolation, nor allow other animals, not already exposed, to come in contact with them until otherwise ordered by the Board of Health, of the Town of Braintree, of the State Cattle Commissioners.
Whoever violates any of the provisions of the foregoing regulations (25, 26 and 27), shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars, or by imprisonment not ex- ceeding one year.
Oct. 3, 1900, the following amendment was passed. "No barn or stable shall be erected within two hundred (200) feet of high water mark of Little Pond, in Braintree, without a permit from the Board of Water Commissioners and the Braintree Board of Health."
All these rules and regulations, as required by law, have been published in the Braintree papers.
Twelve regular meetings of this Board have been held dur- ing the year and one joint meeting with the Water Board, and over twice as many special meetings for the inspection of dif- ferent premises.
The Braintree Bakery was found to be in a very unsanitary condition. This has been cleaned, however, and changed to the requirements of statute and sanitary laws. All dumps in the town have been inspected and cleaned. The shores of Little Pond, which is now the source of our water supply, have been carefully inspected, and in one place a sink drain found running directly into the pond was ordered abolished. and a watertight cesspool has been built instead, as far as it is possible from the pond. Many buildings already built are much too near the shore, but the owners, by care and with the advice of this Board, have abated much that might pollute the water. Increased care of this pond must be taken as the town grows, that we may save our present good water. We would respectfully call the attention of the citizens of the town to the necessity of acquiring the land immediately adjacent to the Little Pond as an added protection to this supply.
During the year the Monatiquot, Union and Jonas Perkins schools have been fumigated by this Board and all residences
187
in which there has been contagious disease, when the attend- ing physicians have notified this Board of the necessity, all of which has been free to the occupants. Beginning 1901, a fee of $1.00 will be charged for such work. We advise that sev- eral Formaldehyde Generators be owned by the School Com- mittee and kept one in each of the large school buildings.
All stables in which five or more horses are kept, have been licensed during the year, according to the state law concern- ing the same.
We also recommend that the town own or control one team to collect the swill and remove and dump rubbish. This swill should be sold to the highest bidder to help pay the expense of collection. The expense of removing rubbish, ashes, etc., should be paid by the householder. All time during which this team is not in use for these purposes, we suggest might be utilized by the street department.
Licenses to collect swill and remove other offensive sub- stances have been granted free to a large number of citizens this year. Beginning 1901, a small fee to cover the expense will be charged for such licenses.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE
FOR THE
Suppression of the Illegal Sale of Intoxicating Liquors
AND THE
Enforcement of All Laws under the Nuisance Act.
To the Citizens of the Town of Braintree. Gentlemen:
I respectfully submit the following report.
1. At the request of several citizens two Constables were cietailed to do special duty on the Lord's Day during the Summer and early Fall months. These Officers were in- structed to see that the laws concerning the observance of the Lord's Day were strictly enforced in the first and second Precincts. Frequent complaints against the travelling Public to South Shore resorts, of Rowdyism, Profanity, Fast Driving and other evils made their appointments a Sunday necessity.
2. Through the publicity of the Press and special work done by Officers appointed by your Committee, the debasing sport of "Cock Fighting," reported as so prevalent in Brain- tree, has become a thing of the past.
3. Special Officers have been on duty for several months in the year, enforcing the Liquor Laws.
Raids have frequently been made against places suspected of being a "Nuisance" with varying success. When liquor has been found Convictions have resulted. When liquor has not been obtained a wholesome scare, equivalent to a convic- tion, has invariably followed.
189
4. Persons suspected of keeping houses of ill repute have been warned, and in some instances have found it expedient to move out of town.
5. Pool Rooms and other places of resort have been regu- lated and the laws referring to minors have been rigidly enforced.
6. More than one gambling resort has been closed and abandoned because of accumulated evidence against them.
Your Committee has appreciated the unenviable position he has occupied during the past year, and is semi-conscious of the abuse of bad men, and the kindly criticisms of good men that have fallen to his lot.
No Officer of the town can be engaged in enforcing "laws" that conflict with the passions of the basest men in the com- munity without arousing their keenest opposition and their most' malignant hatred.
At the opportune time your Committee hopes to refute any charges that may be made against him for employing certain special Officers, by producing unimpeachable testimony in their behalf.
The town today according to the best evidence that your Committee can procure is practically clear of all "drinking dens" and kitchen bar-rooms that have flourished in the past,. and can be kept clean, if the good citizens of Braintree will. only do their duty at the coming Town Meeting.
Your Committee desires to thank Mr. Robert E. Belcher for his efficient services during the past year and to recom- mend that next year the appropriation be placed in his charge.
A detailed account will be found in the Selectmen's Report ...

Report of the School Committee.
January 9, 1901.
At a meeting of the School Committee held this date, it was voted to adopt the report of the Superintendent as the Com- mittee's report to the Town, and to recommend the following appropriations :---
For teachers and Superintendent, in addition to the dog tax and in- come of the school fund, esti- mated to be $1,100 00 . $19,850 00
Janitors, including cleaning and care of buildings during the summer vacation 2,132 00

1,900 00
Incidentals for schools
500 00
Schoolhouse improvements, repairs and incidentals 1,000 00
Fuel

Conveyance of pupils

Manual training at the Monatiquot
Grammar school (equipment
$350, teacher 4 months $175) ..
525 00
Repairing and shingling roofs of Monatiquot and Pond buildings, 500 00
The instruction in manual training at the Jonas Perkins school during the past three and one-half years has become so important a part of the regular work of the school that it can be considered an experiment no longer. We therefore recommend such an appropriation as will permit the Commit- tee to provide this form of instruction to the boys of grades six, seven and eight in all of our grammar schools.
197
The roofs of the Monatiquot and Pond buildings are in such poor condition that the water which runs through them must be doing a great deal of damage. We recommend that a suitable committee be appointed to inspect these buildings and to determine the amount and cost of repairs necessary and to recommend such action by the Town as will put them in satisfactory condition.
Attention is called to that part of the Superintendent's re- port which refers to the need of better accommodations for our High school. We have a large and flourishing school, which is rapidly increasing in numbers. A new building not only seems to be a necessity, but even proper civic pride calls for immediate action. The State Inspector permitted this school to occupy the third floor of its present building only as a temporary expedient, because of danger from fire. We there- fore recommend that a commission be appointed to consider the need of more suitable accommodations for the High school, and to recommend such action by the Town as may seem desirable.
