The permanent gains of any undertaing are ulti- mately not material but intellectual and cultural. In that Ipswich lived during a period of months the greatness of her past, she taught youth the high standard of citi- zenship which must be continued in the future.

IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
In order that there may be preserved for the future an accurate record of the accomplishments of the cele- bration, the Ipswich Historical Society has authorized a publication which will be devoted to a permanent record of the achievement of the Ipswich Tercentenary Celebra- tion. In that publication will be the proper acknowl- edgements to those who gave of time, means and effort.
No undertaking of any kind can be free from errors of judgment and execution, yet we feel that in this case they were all of minor importance.
In conclusion as director I stand convinced that the success of the celebration was neither personal nor that of the committee, but rather of the town acting as a unit. The pleasure of the task of director came from intimate contact with so many of the people of Ipswich who un- selfishly gave freely to achieve a common end.
Respectfully submitted,
ARTHUR W. JOHNSON, Director.

REPORT OF THE PLAYGROUND COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of the Town of Ipswich :
The Playground Committee submit the following report :
The work of the Committee was carried along the lines of previous years with additional work done on the Pool.
Our appropriation having been divided we kept the tennis courts and grounds in the best condition possible.
We did considerable work on the pool, cleaning weeds and other debris. A fifteen foot cement wall was constructed on each side of the water gate and other im- provements made. We feel that this work has made a big improvement and makes the pool an excellent and safe place for skating.
We do not know in what condition the tennis courts will be this spring. We realize that something will have to be done sooner or later to keep the same in playing condition.
Respectfully submitted.
FRED D. HARRIS, JOSEPH THOMAS, NATHANIEL BURNHAM, ERNEST H. PICKARD,
