We would recommend that the Town purchase horses for the fire department. We would also recommend the purchase of a chemical engine, which would greatly reduced water damage at fires, and in many cases would be of great value where there are no hydrants.
We would also recommend that the Board of Selectmen be instructed to request the Revere Water Board to place hydrants on Vine street, and on Main street, above the Methodist church.
We also recommend the purchase of 2,000 feet of hose, as our supply is very short, at the present time.
We would also recommend that a fire alarm box be placed on Denver street at the railroad crossing.
We would also recommend the sum of $2,800 for running expenses of the department, and $2,200 for firemen's salaries.

Report of Superintendent of Streets.
In submitting my annual report I beg leave to make the fol- lowing suggestions. I would recommend that a pipe be laid on Lincoln avenue to take the water from Bristow street to the Town drain, also that something of the same kind be done to take care of the water from Cliftondale Square to the Revere line as it is very bad in the winter making it inconvenient for the people living on that street.
I would suggest that Main street, Saugus, be graded and be put in proper shape from Vine street to the residence of the late Martin Carnes. Also Walnut street, by Birch Brook, to the top of Hawkes hill, and a small strip on Water street, near the Wakefield line.
I would recommend that the gutters on Jefferson avenue, Lynnhurst, be paved the coming season and the avenue be graded so as to hold the water where it belongs as there is a large quantity that flows down that street.
Adams avenue having been accepted the past year without an appropriation is in need of a large amount of labor to make it passible in seasons of the year when the frost is coming out of the ground, and is in need of immediate attention.
The most of our streets are in fair condition in the center of the town. Lincoln avenue, from Lynn to Revere line, has had a large amount of work done on it the past season thereby mak- ing it a very nice thoroughfare ; it will not need much in the way of repairs for some time to come.
Main street, Saugus, has been put in good repair from the Monument to Vine street the past season ; let the good work go on as recommended.
178
179
REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS.
There has been quite a large amount of crushed rock used the past season in a satisfactory manner and more could have been used to a good advantage, thereby showing that the time is soon to come when the town will need a crusher as we have plenty of material for one.
Maple street has been much improved the past season, having had a large catch basin built to carry off the surface water, and an eight-inch drain laid to Essex street, a distance of about 400 feet to connect with the town drain, thereby relieving that street of the water.
I recommend that a suitable house be built for the accommo- dation of the steam roller the coming season.
I thank all of the employes for their faithful and harmonious co-operation in the discharge of their duties.

Report of Cemetery Commissioners.
GENTLEMEN,-Your Cemetery Commissioners most respect- fully submit the following report of the work performed during the year ending December 31, 1906.
We met April 21 and organized as follows : H. H. Atherton, chairman ; J. S. Meacom, clerk. We made a contract with Mr. Davis to again serve us as superintendent at a salary of $550 said contract runs from May 1, 1906, to May 1, 1907. Septem- ber 4, Mr. Davis was called before the School Committee and offered $700 per year if he would leave the employ of the Ceme- tery Commissioners and take the janitorship of the new High School building. He came and notified us of the fact and we immediately got together and voted that in our opinion Mr. Davis as Superintendent of Cemetery was worth as much as Mr. Davis as janitor. (The paymaster in both cases being the same, namely the Town of Saugus.) We told him if he would remain with us after the expiration of our contract with him May I, 1907, that we would meet their price, this he agreed to do, things at the cemetery have gone along smoothly this year, as we stated in our last year's report we are sadly in need of more land for burial purposes, and we would most repectfully ask you to give your most careful attention to an article we shall have in the March warrant on that subject.
We shall be obliged to ask you for the sum of $2,600 to run the cemetery this year with, you gave us $2,200 last year and after using the strictest economy we find we run over that amount by $143.83 making the total amount spent $2,343.83. You will see by this that we began our new year with $143.83 spent on account of insufficient appropriation last year, and if you give us the $2,600 we ask for we shall have then but $2,456.17 to carry us through this year with.

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS.
We have purchased a new device for lowering bodies into the grave with, this does away with having four men stay near the grave to attend to the lowering of the body, as that is now done by the superintendent pressing a spring with his foot, by this device we save quite a sum in wages in a year. By referring to the Superintendent's report which is hereby made a part of this report you will see that we have turned into the Town treasury the sum total of $2, 101.80, of this amount the sum of $493.78 was for the sale of lots and single graves leaving the net amount paid $1,608.02, our assets of bills outstanding for the year amounts to $345.03, added to the net amount is $1,953.05, leaving our showing for this year as follows: Amount of original appropriation, $2,200; amount overrun, $143.83 ; total, $2,343.83 ; cash turned in and assets, $1,953.05; total net amount it has cost the Town to run the cemetery the past year, $390.78. This we think is somewhat of an improvement over former years, much as we regret being obliged to overrun our appropriation.
We have several improvements in contemplation for the com- ing year which we hope you will allow us to do by giving us an appropriation such as we ask.
Respectfully submitted,
H. H. ATHERTON, J. S. MEACOM, R. P. WHITCHER,
Commissioners.

Report of the Water Commissioners.
In conformity to the by-laws of the Town and for the infor- mation of its citizens the Board of Water Commissioners submits its annual report. The appropriation of $5,000 made at the annual meeting in March for the maintenance and extension of our water system has been practically exhausted, and while we have attempted to make a wise and judicious expenditure of this sum to bring the best results to the largest number of applicants for the service yet we feel we are unable except by degrees to meet the expectations of all who would be water consumers if conditions were such that the service could be extended upon application.
Our policy, as has been that of our predecessors, is to extend the service when present or prospective conditions seem to warrant an outlay the interest on which would be sufficient at least to meet the requirement of law.
Most of the main thoroughfares at this time seem to be served and the problem which confronts us for a wise solution is how best to deal with the sections more remote from the centres of population, in sparsely settled territory where the desire for water is just as great and in many cases justifiable.
Under this caption the laying of 840 feet of pipe in Lawndale avenue we mention as as instance, which was done at a cost of $1,664.15 and our observation is that in the light of events that have happened since we feel we should have the approval of all fair and thoughtful citizens. The Ballard street extention of 1,616 feet, done at a cost of $2,018.04, has been under con- sideration by this and previous boards for many years and we feel sure that before long the wisdom of our action will become apparent and reflected in the sale of some of the choice building land which can be found on either side of a wide, well-graded and much travelled street in close proximity to the centre of East Saugus and near to the River Works of the General Electric Co.
195
REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
These two features would seem to warrant a prediction that shortlythere will begin the erection of buildings and the creation of other taxable property yielding a revenue to our treasury commensurate with the outlay.
Loud calls have also been made upon us in sections more isolated than those to which we have made special reference, but we have only been able to make conditional promises that their applications would receive such attention as the merit of each case seems to deserve.
By reference to the appraisal of value of our water works by the selectmen, a committee chosen for this and kindred purposes, we find that the sum of $125,000 is their estimate of its worth, to which might be added such sums as have been expended the current year.
Our rebate from the City of Lynn as per existing contract will be $6,548.31, which is an important factor in contributing to the support of our water plant.
We think that the citizens have reason for congratulation that this branch of our public business is in such excellent condition, from which might the drawn the inference that the water depart- ment is practically a self-supporting one, if not one of substantial profit to the town.
In this report of the board is also annexed that of the Superin- tendent and in its proper place in the Auditor's Report will also be found a record in detail of the disbursements of our appro- priation.
For condition of loans made on account of extensions, etc., and now unpaid you are referred to the Treasurer's statement of the town debt.
Our chairman, on request, appeared before the finance com- mittee and asked for an appropriation of $1,000 for the financal year 1907.
Respectfully submitted,
GEO. C. PARCHER, G. W. CASWELL, H. H. ATHERTON,
Water Commissioners.
