IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
The work in the house is being carried forward in a satisfactory manner. There is always enough for all, yet no waste nor extravagance is apparent. The new heating plant will fill a long felt want and add greatly to the co ..- fort of the Home. It should also mean a saving in fuel ex- pense. The appropriation of $325.00 for the installing of a telephone remains unused, because we could not get the Company to consider the matter under existing conditions. and the amount would have been insufficient if the Com- pany had been ready to do the work. Most of the build- ings have been removed from the approach to the Home, the litter cleared away, trees trimmed, etc., and the place pre- sents a neat and attractive appearance as first seen by the visitor.
The Overseers are working in perfect harmony; the Superintendent is capable and efficient : the Matron is all that could be desired; the farm hand and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Baylan, are daily proving their worth; and the inmates who are capable of rendering service are to be complimented for the willingness to aid to the extent of their ability.
A few more years' continuance of the present plan un- der the same management, will prove that the Town Farm can be maintained at very small expense to the tax-payers. As it is, we do not know where else or how the inmates could be housed, fed, clothed, supplied with medical at- tendance, etc., at the low cost of $4.06 per week, and we expect to reduce this amount the coming year.
State Inspector Bardwell says that any almshouse that can reduce the weekly expense in these times below $5.00 per inmate 'is doing remarkably well.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANK T. GOODHUE, JOHN G. SPERLING, CHARLES G. HULL, Overseers of the Poor.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Selectmen's Report.
We feel that the time has come when the Town should make some changes. The cost of labor and teams makes it imperative that some cheaper and more rapid method of handling road material be provided. We recommend that a gasoline gravel loading machine be purchased at a cost of about $750.00 and at least one auto truck, for carrying and spreading gravel at a cost of $3200.00. After investigations lasting more than a year your Selectmen are satisfied that this is the only solution of economical road building and re- pairs in Ipswich. More new construction should be made and some macadam oil binder should be applied before the road is used. It would be an advantage to the Town to have an oil tank to store material so that we could apply when needed and in proper condition. More money must be ap- propriated and spent upon our roads if we are to keep up the reputation of the Town in the past. The changed con- ditions in their use is ample justification for this statement.
We would recommend that the Selectmen or some other agent be appointed and instructed by the Town to pur-
100
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
chase supplies for the Town, particularly coal for all town buildings. As a large saving of time and money could be inade for the people and the auto truck and gravel loader we have recommended could be u ed to great advantage in handling it.
We feel that it would be of advantage to the people and the Town itself if the Electric Light Commissioners would make arrangements to purchase its own supplies direct and materials, fixtures and electrical equipment fur- nished to the people at cost plus handling charges as was done a few years ago.
It has been difficult during the past few years to find people willing to serve as Field Drivers. The law now calls for their appointment by the Selectmen. This year, after a long search for some one to serve in this capacity, we fell back upon the police and appointed them with very satis- factory results. The great drawback was the lack of a pound, and we would recommend that the Selectmen be au- thorized and instructed to provide one or more suitable places for impounding cattle.
FRANK W KYES, EBEN B. MOULTON, JOHN A. BROWN, Selectmen of Ipswich.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Town Clerk's Report.
To the Selectmen of Ipswich,
Gentlemen :- In submitting myannual report for your consideration, I would again state what I have done in pa 1 vears : That is the fact that more room, and fire-proof at that, is needed for the placing of the Records of the Town. Those records must be preserved and kept in a place of se- curity. The vault in the office of the Clerk and Treasurer is now in use by both offices and is crowded to overflowing with the books, papers and documents of both offices. There is also in the store-room a large number of books and docu- ments that should be put in a more secure place, that is, in a word, they should be in a fire-proof room or vault. I am not proposing any appropriation, for the reason that I am not familiar enough with the construction of such places to speak with any authority. Let it be understood that these books and documents have more than a passing value, and are as well required by law to be kept, as by the will of the inhabitants of the town. I have books now in the hands of the book binders, being rebound, as they could not be used any longer as they were, and others must follow as soon as those are received.
The vital statistics show a decrease in marriages and deaths over former years, but the birth rate shows increase.

As will be seen the work of the Clerk's office continues to grow and to demand more attention as time passes. Much is now required of the Clerk that was unknown in former years, and those calls and demands are of such character that they must be considered and receive the attention they require.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Report of the Board of Health For 1919.
Chapter 75, Sections 49, 50 and 52 of the Revised Laws require that all diseases dangerous to the public health shall be reported by the attending physician within twenty-four hours of their occurrence. Thirty-seven diseases are in- cluded in that list. These diseases must also be reported immediately by the local board to the State Department of Health. Following is the list for the year :
Chicken Pox
6
Diphtheria
11
Opthalmia Neonatorum
1
Mumps
1
Scarlet Fever
34
Tuberculosis
10
Poleo-Myelitis
1
Influenza
2
Lobar Pneumonia
2
Croupous Pneumonia
1
105
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
Cerebro-Spinal Meningitis

Total
70
There were no deaths from any of these di eases.
While it is most important that the best of care and sur- veillance be maintained when such diseases occur, it is still more vitally important that everything possible be done to prevent their occurrence.
In the year just closed this department has had to meet some rather unusual conditions. While the diseases dan- gerous to the public health have been less in number than in any recent year, and while there have been no deaths from any of these diseases, nevertheless, conditions have arisen when quick and sometimes drastic action was neces- sary to prevent the spread of diseases where, had not such action been taken, serious consequences would probably have resulted.
With only seventy such cases reported to the depart- ment with no deaths resulting, it looks on the surface like a very good showing. But when it is shown that there were eleven cases of diphtheria and thirty-four cases of scarlet fever, and that 90% of these were cases among our alien population, whose knowledge of the English language is lim- ited ; a population that for the past fifteen years has seemed to possess an immunity from these diseases, the significance of the situation with which the department has had to deal. becomes apparent. We have been fortunate in this connec- tion to have been able to arrange with the Salem Health Department to take care of most of the cases of diphtheria and scarlet fever at their hospital for contagious diseases, and the Board hereby gives expression of its appreciation to the Salem Health Department, and to Health Officer
106
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
McGrath for the prompt, efficient and able service rendered the Town of Ipswich. Had not their service been available it would not have been possible to isolate these cases, and reduce as was done to a minimum the spread of these dis- eases. There have been several occasions where it was deemed necessary to maintain a rigid quarantine, sometimes for several days while cultures were being made or while awaiting an available bed in the hospital. This quarantine, while expensive, was deemed by the Board to be vitally necessary. At this writing, Feb. 1st, we still have cases in the hospital and also houses under quarantine. No one can tell how long these conditions will prevail.
Several sanitary conditions have been carefully looked after. There are always places that are bad, but when we consider that we have a mixed population, and the fact that the town is without a system of sewerage, we can only draw the inference that the town has been fortunate. This con- lition of good fortune cannot be expected to go on forever. Overcrowding is on the increase in some tenement sections, a condition to be expected in a community where there is plenty of work and a shortage of housing accommodations. Practically no houses have been built since the war began, and our population has increased during that period. With constantly increasing conditions of overcrowding the neces- sity for a proper system of sewerage becomes imperative if the town is to do the plain duty of conserving the health of its people. We feel that the town wishes to do this, but that it never will do it until it awakens to the necessity. It is time to wake up and do something. A survey was made several years ago and plans were drawn, but no action was ever taken. It is time that something be done along these lines.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
REPORT OF MILK INSPECTOR
As regards to the milk situation there does not seem to be any report needed, for so far as I can see the same care is being used by the producers as in former years, and so I can only repeat what I have said in my reports for the pre- vious years past.
No reports have been made to me about the milk which is being distributed, which seems that is sufficient proof that our milk supply is being kept up to the standard, and the same may be said as regards to the ice cream situation, as all places where same is sold are in a clean and sanitary con- dition as found after a careful inspection.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
DIVISION OF CHILD WELFARE
Report of the Director
In presenting the fourth annual report of this division the Director is much gratified toannounce that there hasbeen a material lowering of the mortality rate among children under one year of age since this work was begun in the summer of 1916. Below is given the figures of the birth rate for each year since that time, together with the death rate of children under one year, as follows :
Year
Births
Deaths
1915
118
23
1916
138
27
1917
155
24
1918
194
24
1919
195
21
It will be seen by the above figures that about 19% of the children born in 1916 died under one year of age, while in 1919 only about 10% died, a reduction of about 48%. Had the percentage been the same in 1919 that it was in 1916 there would have been 37 deaths instead of 21. The rate has been lowered each year. This did not simply hap- pen, but was the result of a vast amount of intensive work carried on with that end in view.
With the above showing it can be seen that the mor- tality rate has been very materially lowered in four years time. We hope to make an even better showing another year.
Below is given a summary of the work done by the welfare nurse for the year. It will be seen that she made 372 pre-natal visits to expectant mothers. This work al-
110

ready shows promise of excellent results in the future, and is perhaps the most important work now being done for in- fant welfare.
