As these cases are very often distributed to all sections of the town, it requires a large amount of time, as on some days pupils who are absent are reported from the extreme ends of the town, from the lower end of East street to Mile Lane. About 300 cases have been investigated, the majority of which have been kept at home by the parents, but in a number of cases are habitual truants. Insufficient clothing, and the need of the child's help to do the housework has been the excuse for some of those who have been reported. Forty-five pupils have been returned to school for causes for which they were alone to blame. Two cases have been brought before the Court and the parents in

each case have been found guilty of illegally keeping the child out of school. i.
In addition, the duties of the ' Attendance Officer require him to see that those who are obliged to attend the evening school are in attendance each evening and to issue employment certificates, and keep the census record up to date at all times.
I wish to thank the School Nurse for her assistance in look- ing up cases of alleged sickness as an excuse for being out of school.
On the whole I think that the number of those who have been habitual truants has decreased during the past year.

FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT.
ELEVENTH
ANNUAL REPORT
IPSWICH, FEBRUARY 25, 1919.
To the Citizens of the Town of Ipswich :-
The Finance Committee has carefully considered the financial needs for the various departments of the Town as presented to the them by the various officers and boards also the articles in the Warrant calling for appropriation of money.
Your attention is called to the financial reports of the depart- ments as presented in the Town report which show in detail the expenditures for the year 1918.
Your attention is also called to the comments on the pages of this report following the table of figures in which we give the rea- sons which prompted us to recommend different amounts than those suggested by the departments.
It will be noted that in the table of figures on page 3, that no figures appear in the first two columns for the water and electric departments, while in the last two the figures do appear.
This does not mean that there is an increase in appropriations equal to the amount of the figures. It is due to new laws which require appropriations to be made in a new way.
We recommend the following appropriations for the year 1919:

FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT.
TOWN HALL.
We estimate that the Town Hall will not be used as frequent- ly the coming year as in 1918, and have recommended $200. less than is asked for which we estimate will be saved in fuel and light.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
We have deducted from the estimate $300. requested to be appropriated for water as this amount is paid by the Town in the amount expended for hydrants and to be appropriated for the Water Department.
HEALTH DEPARTMENT.
. The expenditures for this department outside of $4750.85 for the epidemic of influenza were $3005.19 which left an unex- pended balance of $494.81 out of the regular appropriation of $3500. We consider that the sum of $350C. will be sufficient for 1919 and have recommended this amount.
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
The expense of the removal of snow and ice in 1918 was $2152.50, but this year this item has been so much less that we have recommended $19000 or $728.21 less than expended in 1918.
CEMETERIES.
The Cemetery Committee have not appeared before your com- mittee to show the necessity of an increase over last year's approp- riation and we have recommended the same amount as raised last year.
OUT POOR.
This department finds that owing to the prosperous time it was not required to expend its full appropriation in 1918. Believing that a similar condition exists we have recommended $7700. instead of the amount asked for.
NOTE PAYMENTS.
Of the amount required, $3550. note of Electric Light De- partment will be paid by the department from its earnings, leaving balance of $8650. to be appropriated.
INTEREST.
$2284. to be paid by Electric Light Department from its earnings, balance to be appropriated.
5
FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT.
EDUCATION.
The expense of this department has increased so rapidly the last ten years that we have given particular attention to the budget presented by the committee, and we have after due consideration recommended $4700C. for the year, believing that this sum is all that the Town can afford to spend and that with it the efficiency of our schools can be maintained.
ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Depreciation $3150., Interest $2284., and Note payment $3550, will be paid by the department from its earnings.
WATER DEPARTMENT.
$7917. interest, $6000. general expenses, $4843.88 sinking fund to be paid from earnings, $2237.50 for hydrant service to be raised by taxation.
UNPAID BILLS.
We recommend that this amount be paid from the excess and deficiency fund.
THE WARRANT.
Article 2. Compensation of Town Officers. We recommend that the compensation of Town Officers be the same as 1918.
Article 11. This committee was requested by the Municipal Light Commission to investigate the subject matter of this article and at the time we were informed by the Manager of the Newbury- port Gas & Electric Co. that his company would submit a proposal to the Town. Later we received information that such a proposal would not be submitted and we appointed a committee to take up the matter with the Newburyport Co. and received confirmation of the statement that no proposal would be submitted.
Our committee was informed by the Newburyport manager that his company did not wish to supply us with current under the terms of the agreement made with the Town when permission was given the Newburyport Co. to supply the Ipswich Mills. At that time it was agreed that the expense of all of the electrical equip-
FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT.
ment necessary to deliver 2200 volt current to the Town should be paid by the Newburyport Co It is now the desire of the Company that the Town bear that expense.
Under these circumstances we do not feel that we have had sufficient information to enable us to make any recommendations but the following :
The Finance Committee recommends that a Committee of nine be appointed by the Moderator to investigate the question of purchasing electrical current.
That in its report this Committee ascertain and report on all of the following points.
That a printed copy of its report and recommendations be mailed to every voter of the Town. For this purpose the Finance Committee recommends an appropriation of not more than $200, same to be taken from the Excess and Deficiency Fund.
A. To ascertain the cost per K. W. hour of manufacturing current at the Municipal plant for the 5 years preceding Jan. 1, 1919.
B. To ascertain what changes, additions or new equipment will be necessary at the Municipal Plant within the next 2 or 3 years.
C. To ascertain the cost of changing the present equipment at the Municipal Plant so that 3 phase current can be gener- ated in place of single phase.
D. To ascertain what changes in the areials would be neces- sary for the transmission of 3 phase current and the cost of same.
E. To ascertain what, if any, new equipment will be neces- sary at the Municipal Pumping Plant (Water Department) within the next two or three years.
F. To ascertain the best possible contract the Town can se- cure at present for the purchase of electrical current and how soon same could go into effect.
G. To ascertain if there is any other possible source of sup- ply besides the Newburyport Company and when same would be available.
7
FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT.
H. To ascertain the total cost of generating current and pumping water by steam at the Municipal Plant for 3 years prior to Jan. 1, 1919.
To ascertain the total cost to the Town of buying its current and pumping its water by same, taking into consid- eration whatever station, labor, etc. is necessary in so doing.
I. J. To ascertain what the cost of new equipment at the Mu- nicipal Plant will be in case the Town decides to buy its cur- rent to be delivered here.
K,
To ascertain the cost of building a sub-station in the cen - ter of the Town with whatever equipment will be necessary for the receiving and distribution of current from that point.
L.
To ascertain cost of changing aerials so that current can be distributed from a sub-station as noted in Art. K.
To ascertain the cost of new equipment at the Municipal Pumping Plant so that the water can be pumped by electricity and the cost of transmitting current for that purpose from a sub-station (as outlined in Art. K.) to the Municipal Pump- ing Plant.
To investigate and ascertain on all other points pertinent to the subject,
To make whatever recommendations it finds are best for the interest of the Town. same to be considered at a future Town Meeting,
We recommend that a sufficient sum be appropriated to en- able the committee to make a proper report and to get facts and figures from disinterested authorities competent to give them.
We do not understand that there is any emergency which calls for hasty action on this question but we recognize that the best authority seems to assume that sooner or later the question of purchasing current will come home to us, and we feel that this in- vestigation will put us in a position to meet it intelligently.
Article 14. Reserve Fund. We recommend that the sum of $3000. be appropriated for a Reserve Fund and that the amount be taken From Excess and Deficiency Fund.

Article 15. Observance of Memorial Day. We recommend an appropriation of $250. to be expended under the direction of Gen. James Appleton Post, G. A. R.
Article 21. Essex Road construction. We recommend an appropriation of $2000. to be expended in accordance with terms proposed by the County Commissioners, Feb. 14, 19)9.
Article 23. Extension of electric lighting system to Line- brook Parish. We make no recommendation on this article as the matter is covered by and subject to the action taken on Article 10 of the Warrant.
The Committee extends its thanks to the members of the various Boards, and to the Town Accountant for their assistance and information in regard to Town business from which we have prepared this report.
