Report of the Trustees of the Thaver Public Library.
To the Citizens of the Town of Braintree :
There has been little that is new in the Library during the past year. There is a great deal which should be new. Little constructive work has been done for several years, and unless some radical changes are made the usefulness of the library will be seriously impaired. The present system, or lack of system in the cataloguing of books, will ever be an inconvenience to our patrons.
A card catalogue, although expensive at the start, is the only satisfactory method, and in the long run, is the most inex- pensive.
With a card catalogue some attempt may be made toward classification of books. But neither catalogue or classification can be had until we have more and better shelf-room. We have plenty of room, but the room is taken up by cumbersome wooden stacks. If these can be replaced by steel stacks and some better accommodations for the librarian's work be secured, the public can be served better and the books better shelved than is now possible.
In spite of poor methods, the library puts out a remarkably large number of books-above the average of other town libraries. But this cannot continue without some radical im- provements as suggested above.
There is still one vacancy on the Board which we hope soon to fill.
The library is indebted to Mr. Nathaniel H. Hunt for an old-fashioned clock which helps to relieve the bareness of our general reading room.
Respectfully submitted,
FREDERICK R. GRIFFIN, Chairman. NATHANIEL H. HUNT, HENRY A. JOHNSON, ROBERT E. BELCHER.

Report of Fire Department.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
Gentlemen :- I herewith submit my report for the year 1904 :
The department was organized with C. V. Cottrell, chief; F. O. Whitmarsh, clerk; J. Samuel Hill, assistant engineer ; and 72 call men.
The houses are in good condition in Precinct 1 and 2. Some action should be taken in East Braintree engine house to make suitable quarters for the ladder truck.
The apparatus is in good condition and consists of 2 hand engines, 3 hose wagons, 3 ladder trucks, 3 hose reels and their equipments.
The amount of hose has been increased this year about 950 feet of best Callahan hose.
There have been 42 alarms during the year ; 20 for buildings · with one second alarm. Nineteen wood fires. One lost woman and two false alarms.
The list of property and fires can be seen by calling on the chief of the board of engineers.
LOSS BY FIRE.
Value of buildings, $27,700.00.
Value on contents, $19,500.00.
Loss on buildings, $6,984.50.
Loss on contents, $2,698.00.
Total loss on buildings and contents, $9,682.50.
We recommend that the engineers, firemen and stewards receive the same pay as last year with their poll tax, with the exception of the three stewards and the clerk of the board of engineers, and recommend that they get an increase of $10 apiece.
That an appropriation of $500 be made for new hose.
That $100 be appropriated for two sets of harnesses for the north part of the town the same to be made in Braintree.
That some action be taken in regard to getting horses for the department, especially in the south part of the town.
In concluding this report I wish to thank Engineers Hill and Whitmarsh for their hearty support, and the officers and men of the fire department for the faithful manner in which they have performed their work.

At a meeting of the School Board held February 8, 1905, it was voted to ask the town for an appropriation of $31,885 to meet the financial needs of the schools for the ensuing year. This amount is based upon the following estimates :

The Committee has kept well within its appropriation this year and has returned a substantial balance to the Town Treasury.
The opening of the "Noah Torrey School " will mean an additional teacher and, it is hoped, the installation of the Sloyd system of Manual Training. After the successful operation of this system in the Jonas Perkins School it cannot fail to com- mend itself to the good judgment of the Town.
The Building Committee of the Noah Torrey School House should be furnished with an additional appropriation to complete the school hall and to grade the grounds. It will be a wise and an economical expenditure of money. The Assembly Hall can be finished and furnished at a much less expense now than at any future time.
An additional appropriation is asked for this year for the purpose of painting and renovating the Jonas Perkins and the Monatiquot school houses. The public buildings of a town speak not only for themselves but for the citizens, and in order that the school houses may speak well of Braintree it is necessary to spend money for their improvement and preservation.
The problem of keeping our teachers becomes increasingly per- plexing. In nearly every case the teacher leaves for a larger salary. With our present appropriation we cannot offer special induce- ments for them to stay. The question of retaining or losing our teachers during the school year is simply one of money.
