FIRE DEPARTMENT


To the Board of Selectmen-


The Board of Engineers present the following report covering the year 1912


APPARATUS.


The following apparatus is in commission :


Three steam fire engines.


Two hose wagons.


One hose reel.


Two chemical engines.


One ladder truck.


One combination chemical and ladder truck. One fire alarm wagon.


The various pieces of apparatus have been kept in proper con- dition. Engine 2, at the Central Station, has been overhauled, and this gave opportunity to add some improvements.


BUILDINGS.


The buildings occupied by the department have been repaired and improved as occasion required, and are in excellent condition. The Central Station is in a very congested district, and the fire risk from adjoining buildings is great. The Board believed that this building should have modern protection, and accordingly,


-123-


the building has been equipped with a water curtain. This means of preventing the spread of fire has proved to be very ef- ficient elsewhere, and will be valuable in the event of fires in sur- rounding property.


FIRE ALARM SYSTEM.


The system has received the usual careful and frequent at- tention, so necessary to this important branch of the service. A punching register and a box (No. 317), which is to be located at the corner of Oak and Davis streets, are the only additions dur- ing the year. During the construction of the conduit of the New England Telephone & Telegraph Co., on Court Street, pro- vision was made for underground fire alarm wires, but there were not sufficient funds at hand to buy the necessary wire and equipment to transfer the lines from the poles to the conduits.


ALARMS.


There have been sixteen bell and forty-two still alarms during the year.


18 for fires in chimneys.


14 for fires in grass and rubbish.


12 for fires in dwellings.


7 for fires in stores.


2 for fire in unoccupied buildings.


1 for fire in car.


1 for fire in hen house.


1 for fire in stable.


2 for false alarms.

HOSE.


The department had 5,800 feet of 2 1-2 inch cotton, rubber lined hose in services December 31, 1912.

RECOMMENDATIONS


The Board desire to repeat the recommendation made last year relative to automobile apparatus. Considerable time could be saved on long runs which is of the utmost importance in the extinguishing of fires, therefore an automobile would material- ly increase the efficiency of this department.


The Board recommend the usual appropriation of $14,500.00 to meet the ordinary expenses during the year 1913.


Respectfully submitted, JOHN E. SULLIVAN, ISAAC L. HEDGE, ALTON D. EDES,


Board of Fire Engineers.

BOARD OF HEALTH


-


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-


The Board of Health, in compliance with custom and the public statutes, herewith presents its annual report for the year ending December 31, 1912.


Organization.


Early in the year the Board elected Dr. George Jackson as its chairman and medical advisor, and Harry R. Talbot as its secretary.


Dr. Frederick H. Bradley was reappointed inspector of meats and provisions ; Arthur Sampson and Michael D. Welsh continued to serve as inspectors of plumbing.


The Board believing that one of its number could better act in conjunction with the members in the matter of inspec- tions, appointed Freeman Manter to that position in March, and the results have justified the appointment.


Meetings.


The Board has held 24 regular meetings and several special meetings which by law required record; and besides those re- corded, frequent consultations as the occasion required, thus enabling your Board to render prompt and efficient service in the various lines presented.


Many complaints, both formal and informal, have been re- ceived, and careful attention given to each one and steps taken to better conditions and remove causes. Nearly 200 investi-

gations have been made by the inspector, either on written or formal complaints.


Quarantine.


The work of caring for persons in quarantine has assumed larger proportions and will continue to increase, as work for- merly in charge of the Overseers of the Poor now comes under the supervision of the Board of Health, as required by Revised Laws, chap. 75, sec. 15.


This necessitates a constantly increasing appropriation for quarantine and relief work. Reference is made to the report of the Town Accountant, showing that under this heading the Board expended over $1,500.00 last year, in spite of the fact that every bill was carefully examined and the money spent, as the Board believes, in a judicious manner.
