There seems to be a revived interest, too, in the State Reading Certificates. A small certificate is given for reading and reporting to the Librarian on five books, and a large Certificate is given for reading and reporting on 20 books, five of which must be non-fiction.


The work with the children in the grades is augmented by deposits of 30 or 40 books that the teachers request for use in the schoolrooms. Last year we loaned 38 of these deposits, with a total of 1,223 books.

Beginning in May, 1951, the circulation began an in- crease that continued steadily through December, making a gain of 1563 over the 1950 circulation.


In May, Mrs. Inez C. White, who had been Assistant for two years, resigned in order to take a position with the Cordage Company. We are very fortunate in having Mrs. Walker, who is so well qualified by training and experi- ence, as Assistant.


Five Story Hours were held during 1951 with an average attendance of 60. Mrs. August P. Hunicke and Miss Margaret Kyle generously gave of their time and services to make these popular afternoons a great success.


The Deposit Library in the Hedge School is still filling a great need. Because of distance many boys and girls find it impossible to visit the Library. With the books right in the school building, these boys and girls are not


-171-


deprived of good reading. In spite of a change of princi- pals in the middle of the school year, and a long interval before we could get in action again, 934 books were circu- lated in the school year.


All during the year, the teachers bring their classes from the Hedge School for browsing in the Junior Room and to select groups of books to take back to school. Many of the children register for the first time.


The "Teen-age" section of the Junior Room, which was started about four years ago, is growing in size and popu- larity. At Loring Branch Library we are very fortunate in having the space to develop this work with young people.


Afternoons at the Loring Library are busy with young people from 5 to 20, all in search of a good book or doing reference work for their home lessons.


As the Librarian has emphasized before, the impor- tance of the Loring Branch Library lies in its services to the children and young people in North Plymouth. While we have many devoted and appreciative adult readers, many of them have limited time to spend in reading. But the young people feel that the Loring Library is an in- tegral part of their community life. It is hoped that the hours that they have spent here and the books they have borrowed and read will always have some influence on whatever the future may have in store for them.

NINETY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS


The Board of Water Commissioners presents its ninety- seventh annual report covering the year 1951.


The total rainfall during the year amounted to 45.90 inches, which was about an average amount but was not sufficient to overcome the shortages in recent years, as the elevation of Great South Pond on December 31, 1951, was 102.25, the same as it was one year previous to that date.


The amounts received by the Town from the sale of water, connections to new mains, services rendered, etc., were as follows:


North of Stone Tank


Rates $58,305.32


Labor $79.00


Misc. $741.13


Total $59,125.45


South of Stone Tank


14,178.44


412.00


450.00


15,040.44


$72,483.76


$491.00


$1,191.13


$74,165.89


The greatest amount of water pumped at the Lout Pond Station in any one day was 1,889,000 gallons on July 16th, when the pumps operated 181/2 hours. The tabulation of the pumping throughout the year at this station and the Deep Water Station appears on a following page.


The total amount pumped at the Manomet Station was 19,870,000 gallons. The greatest amount pumped in one day was 461,300 gallons on July 14th.


Lout Pond Station-Low Service Meter and Chlorinating Equipment


In order to install the necessary connections for the new low service meter and chlorinating equipment, a large concrete pit was constructed near the Lout Pond Station. The Venturi tube was set in place in the low


1


-177-


service main and connections made to the totalizer and recorder, which are installed in the basement of the station and measure the consumption of water in the low service system. The meter was placed in operation on July 3, 1951, and since that time we have an accurate record of that consumption which we have not had for many years.


The connections to the Low Service Chlorinating ap- paratus were also made to the Venturi tube above referred to and the system was placed in operation in July.


New Ground Water Supply


The exploration for a new supply of ground water was carried on in several locations. Small test wells were driven in each of the following locations: Between Sum- mer and Samoset Streets, not far from Sparrow's Hill, near Leach Pond and west of the new By-pass opposite Cherry Street. Several small wells and two eight-inch wells were driven in and near the Rye Field. Early indi- cations in this area were favorable, but the larger wells, sunk to greater depth, did not prove satisfactory.


The owners of the various properties were very co- operative and willingly granted permission for the investi- gations. Some water was found at each location, but the quantity and the quality of the water or the character of the material in the ground indicated that further investi- gation in any one of these areas was not justified.


The last test well driven was on land belonging to the Town near the Lout Pond pumping station. An eight-inch test well was driven to a depth of about 117 ft. where resistance was encountered, probably ledge. The material at that depth is very coarse and suitable for a good flow of water. Analyses of the water were good and there seems to be an ample quantity available.


The pump installed for testing purposes gave a dis- charge of 425 gallons per minute during a continuous run


-178-


of thirty-six hours. In order that a longer test could be made, the Finance Committee granted a transfer of addi- tional funds. The second pumping test lasted for four and one-half days during which the rate of discharge contin- ued the same as before. The well driver and the author- ities of the Commonwealth report that this location is suitable for further development.


The Water Commissioners were somewhat disappointed that the search for water farther to the north was not successful, but are gratified that the location finally dis- covered bears excellent prospects and has the advantages of being near the present distribution system and reservoir and is on land owned by the Town.


The Commissioners believe that the South Ponds will continue to supply water to the Town for an indefinite time. Nevertheless, the low levels of recent years indicate that it would be prudent to develop some additional source of supply. If the ponds go much below the December, 1951, level of 102.25 the flow of water to the pumps would be seriously lessened, the rate of pumping reduced, and con- sequently drastic limitations in the use of water would be necessary.


We are therefore asking the Town for funds to further develop the well near Lout Pond. The appropriation asked for is for the construction of the well only. It would then be tested for a considerable period to make certain that expenditure for the installation of permanent pumping equipment, construction of a small station and connections to our distribution system were advisable. The develop- ment of a new source of water supply requires consider- able time. The program suggested offers the most feasible and economical way in which to proceed.


Special Articles for 1952


We are asking for several special appropriations under articles to be included in the warrant for the annual Town Meeting in March, 1952.


-179-


$15,000.00 is asked for the construction of a new gravel- packed well near Lout Pond, as recommended by Metcalf and Eddy, Engineers, in their letter dated January 15, 1952, a copy of which is in the hands of the sub-committee of the Finance Committee.


$25,500.00 is asked for new water mains in Manomet Heights in parts of the following streets:


Hemlock Street


520 ft. 6" main $2,081.00


Pearl Street


1,770 ft. 8" main


11,668.00


Beach Street


1,900 ft. 8" main 11,729.00


$25,478.00


This is contingent on the payment to the Town of three dollars ($3.00) per linear foot of main or $12,570.00, by the developer before the work is undertaken.


$32,500.00 is asked for to construct new mains and services in Cape Cod Avenue and Reed Avenue and ad- jacent streets, provided the streets are properly graded and accepted by the Town.


We ask for an appropriation to purchase a new 1/2-ton pickup truck in exchange for the pick-up now in use which was purchased in 1947 and has been driven over 70,000 miles. Repairs on this truck in the last year have been expensive. The exchange will probably cost about $1,200.00 including a canvas cover, spare tire, etc.

FORTIETH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT For the year ending December 31, 1951


To the Board of Selectmen Town of Plymouth


Gentlemen:


I submit herewith report of the financial transactions of the Town of Plymouth for the year ending December 31, 1951.


The cash balance at the end of the year was $810,739.50, of which $446,549.27 represented revenue cash and $364,- 190.23 non-revenue cash.


It was necessary to borrow $300,000 in temporary tax notes. However, these were easily paid when due.


The Excess and Deficiency Account showed an improve- ment over a year ago, the balance at the close of the year being $330,129.44, due to excess estimated receipts of $52,176.22 and unexpended appropriation balances re- turned of $98,314.01, and despite the fact that we appro- priated $76,818.10 from this account at the annual town meeting and $29,000 at the special town meeting.


No unpaid bills were reported to this office and there were no overdrafts.


The several schedules are in the following order:


Schedule A. Cash Receipts and Cash Payments as re- ported to the Division of Accounts of the Commonwealth.


Schedule B. Departmental and all special appropria- tions and such receipts, including Federal Grants, as may be legally expended without specific town meeting appro-


-188-


priation, with all payments from same classified as to purpose.


Schedule C. Estimated Receipts, other than from local taxes, as used, with the approval of the Tax Commissioner, by the Assessors in making the 1951 tax rate. This sched- ule also shows the actual cash receipts from the same sources.


Schedule D. Revenue Account for 1951.


Schedule E. Excess and Deficiency Account.


Schedule F. Balance Sheet, December 31, 1951.


Schedule G. and H. Bonded Indebtedness, Jan. 1, 1952.


Schedule J. Calculation of the town's borrowing capac- ity on January 1, 1952.


Respectfully submitted,


CORA B. GRADY, Town Accountant.
