1,377,600 gallons.

1,774,000 .gallons
The East section

HYDRANT CHANGES.
The hydrant in South Braintree square opposite Holbrook avenue, No. 43 has been taken out and replaced by a four-way hydrant with eight-inch connection to the twelve-inch main.
TWELVE-INCH MAIN-SOUTH BRAINTREE SQUARE.
As the main street was about to be widened the department thought it advisable to make connection with the twelve-inch pipe laid by the town in 1888 under contract with Mr. John Cavanagh. The twelve-inch pipe has been connected with the ten-inch pipe laid by the water company at corner of Summer street and Washington; also at a point opposite Mr. William Cain's store with the six-inch and with the twelve-inch in front of Mr. C. H. Hobart's store which gives us a six-inch and a twelve-inch pipe through the square which can be operated inde- pendently of each other with a four-way hydrant which is capa- ble of handling four streams at one time ; also each stream can . be shut off independent of each other at will.
WATER SUPPLY.
During the past season the water in Little pond became so low we were forced to go to Great .pond for an increased supply of water.
In the judgment of the department it was thought best to arrange a temporary pumping outfit at the Great pond station. This was done by taking from Little pond station one of its
1
197
pumps and locating same in station at Great pond. A portable boiler of seventy-five horse power was purchased at a very low figure.
The building was put in such shape as would permit of proper shelter for said machinery, etc.
The sixteen-inch pipe line connecting with crib in pond was connected with twelve-inch pipe as a suction main to pump. The end of twelve-inch force main as left by Mr. Cavanagh was also connected with the pump by ten-inch pipe thus making a complete outfit but on a temporary basis.
On line of twelve-inch main north of King Hill road we laid two six-inch lines to take the place of the twelve-inch taken out a few years ago. The assistance of the Great pond system has enabled us to keep the stand pipe full and has prevented the use of water from Little pond direct.
PUMPS.
The pumping machinery is in good condition, notwithstand- ing we have taken apart and carted one to Great pond, which caused many changes at the old station. The work of taking these pumps out and re-erecting has all been done by the water department.
BOILERS.
The boilers are in good condition, both at Little pond station and at Great pond station all boilers having been examined by the Hartford Steam Boiler Co. and insured by them.
SCREEN WELL OR CRIB AT GREAT POND.
There is a screen well which is composed of boiler plate 1-4 of an inch thick, four feet by six feet in diameter, there are angle iron guides in which to slide screens, the screens are four feet wide by eight feet long, the outside one is of 3-8 inch mesh the intermediate is of 1-4 inch mesh, the inner one is of 1-8 inch mesh thus avoiding the flow of fish or any other substance into the mains.
198
LOWERING MAIN PIPE ON QUINCY AVENUE.
It was found necessary to lower the six-inch main on Quincy avenue in front of residence of Mr. T. A. Watson.
The State highway department caused changes in grade to be made, making a cut at hydrant No. 123 of about three feet and a fill of about three feet at hydrant No. 87.
The above hydrant No. 87 had to be raised which was done by the use of a 45-degree bends on the hydrant branch, the entire distance of the change was about 500 feet, the most of it was ledge work but had been shattered so it could be picked out without blasting.
EXTENSION OF MAINS.
The work on mains at Quincy avenue, Howard street and Cedar Cliff road was mostly all ledge work, making that portion of the construction work very expensive.
SERVICE PIPES.
A number of service pipes have been taken out during the past season and renewed by lead pipe.
Respectfully submitted,

The fuel conditions during the spring and summer have not been normal, for had they been so we should, no doubt, have then expended the full amount of the appropriation for coal. We were unable to get bids for coal in the spring and during the summer upon the quantity usually asked for, and having enough on hand to last until about Thanksgiving, we did not buy until that time, and then in much smaller quantities than usual, so that at the end of the fiscal year we had a balance of funds on hand of $1,339.34.
The price of coal is still very high and should it so continue we shall, no doubt, need considerably more money for fuel than we should under normal conditions.

I shall make this, my first report, very brief, but I wish, however, to refer to the re-arrangement of the courses of study for the grammar and primary schools and also to the change made last year in the courses of the high school.
Since reading is the key to all of the child's future work, hence, during the first four years of his school life special stress is laid upon the reading. It is the aim of the schools to train the child to read fluently and understandingly by the end of his fourth year in school. To this end he is kept reading new matter. The reading books are carefully graded so that new difficulties are overcome and new words learned gradually
