I would recommend the installation of a police signal sys- tem as soon as possible. Under the present arrangements, if an officer is wanted from the street we are obliged to depend on private telephones or send a man from this station, and in either case valuable time is lost, whereas with the patrol boxes all men would be in close touch with headquarters and all orders executed in a speedy manner.
I would also recommend that two additional men be appoint- ed for night duty, one to be used as night patrolman in the central part of the town, the other to be used as night officer in the police station, thus placing three men in the large ter- ritory which two men are now attempting to cover. This will insure a more effective patrol and will furnish a force to meet. any ordinary emergency.
Very respectfully,
ELWELL H. SMITH, Chief of Police.

REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
The expenses of this department, as shown in the foregoing financial statement, have been kept within the amount provided by the Town, and although a larger sum was given for schools this last year than in any of the preceding years, great care has been required to avoid an overdraft. In our earlier reports attention has been repeatedly called to the causes leading to the continually increasing expenses of this department, and these causes are still operative, while on the other hand there is scarcely anything to relieve the situation. The number of scholars has increased and we are now again confronted with a condition of congestion which calls for relief. This pressure is apparently continuous, and in meeting the present needs a wise policy demands that we build to provide for the larger number which we shall probably have within a few years.
To meet the expenses of this department for the year 1912 we ask for an appropriation of sixty-three thousand dollars.
Heretofore the medical inspection has been provided for by a special appropriation, but a change in the system of town accounting makes this expense chargeable to the general appro- priation for schools, and no special appropriation is asked for.
Last spring the School Committee was given the use of the Fire Station on South street, and an appropriation was made to provide for the alteration and equipment of the building to accommodate the ninth grade and a new school to be made from the overflow of nearby schools which had outgrown their seating capacity. When this matter was taken in hand it became apparent that the relief thus afforded would be only temporary unless
-164-
more scholars were provided for. A study of the building with the architects and mechanics showed that the best arrangement possible for four schools would not be free from serious objec- tions, and the reconstruction of the building could be made only at an expense which the committee thought to be unwarranted. They, therefore, felt obliged to fit the building for immediate and temporary use without the installation of the usual and required system of ventilation. Owing to a succession of dis- appointments the building was not available at the opening of the fall term, and consequently in the schools to be relieved the pupils were divided, some attending in the morning and the others in the afternoon, while waiting for the building to be made ready. The ninth grade now occupies the double room on the upper floor, and the new school the one on the lower floor. The fitting and furnishing was done from the special appropriation. While the present rooms are pleasant and con- venient and serve the schools now occupying them, they do not meet modern requirements and can not be made to do so with- out a large expenditure. The steam boiler, sanitaries and other fittings have been placed with a view to their removal to a new building when this one shall be vacated by the school depart- ment.
In our report of last year we predicted that the time would soon come for the enlargement of the new Hedge building by the addition of four rooms at its rear. The conditions in the schools at the northerly part of the Town indicate that this building should be at once made into an eight-room structure, in accordance with the original scheme. The present passage- ways and sanitaries are adequate for the enlarged building.
