REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY.
TO THE CITIZENS OF SWAMPSCOTT :
Our Public Library has been established nearly twenty- six years, and we now have a collection of 6,279 volumes. 240 books have been purchased, and about 60 worn out books have been replaced by new copies the past year.
18,109 books have been loaned to patrons, against 14,794 the previous year.
The sale of catalogues, and fines for keeping books beyond the allotted time has amounted to $21.25.
The Library has been opened every Saturday from 2 to 9, and Wednesday from 4 to 8 throughout the year.
Printed bulletins of new books have from time to time been issued, which are gratuitously furnished to all, and a complete catalogue with supplements can be obtained from the libra- rian for twenty-five cents, which is not half the cost.
Miss Sarah L. Honers, our librarian for the past fourteen years, will ever be found ready to assist readers in making selections, to those who may require her services. The Trustees desire to express their appreciation of her valued services.
Masters Nowell Ingalls and Howard Ellis serve as assis- tants.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
TO THE CITIZENS OF SWAMPSCOTT :
The Board of Health respectfully submit the following re- port of their doings for the past year.
During the year we have received and investigated all com- plaints brought to our notice. We have had official notice of two cases of diphtheria, four cases of scarlet fever, none of which proved fatal, for which we have reason to be grateful.
We have had considerable trouble in relation to the dump- ing grounds, which private parties had allowed us to use, which are now closed to the public; leaving us without any suitable place for dumping. We think that some action should be taken by the Town towards procuring some suit- · able place for a dump.
In relation to the collecting of offal, the manner in which it has been performed has given general satisfaction.
The Board feel that the Town will compare favorably with other Towns in regard to health and cleanliness.

REPORT OF THE MILK INSPECTOR.
TO THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN :
The number of licenses granted for the sale of milk for the term of 1894-1895, was (18) eighteen, for which nine dollars ($9.00) was received and paid into the Town Treasury. No complaints in any form have been made as to quality or ser- vice, and it is fair to infer that the service of milk in our Town has been satisfactory to all.

REMARKS.
Our connection with the City of Lynn, in regard to fires, during the past year, has proved to be of much benefit.
The Lynn chemical engine, located on Lewis street, has responded to our fires very promptly, thereby saving consid- erable property for the Town the past year.
In our department, the apparatus and horses are in good condition.
The horses and men have been employed upon the streets and have credit for work done upon the highways as follows : Horses, $409.13 ; drivers, $165.50 ; total, $574.63.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
The Engineers would respectfully recommend that eight hundred dollars be appropriated to enlarge the stable in the rear of the engine house. It is very much needed; there is hardly room to turn the horses back of the stalls, or any place to hang the work harnesses, and is very close in warm weather for the horses.
We would also recommend the purchase of one more horse for the ladder truck.
Our reason for this recommendation is that the ladder truck is too much for one horse. The hose wagon gets out before the call men can get round and the truck pick up the men. This makes too heavy a load for one horse, and we recom- mend two hundred dollars be appropriated for this purpose.

TOWN 'DOCUMENTS.

These recommendations we trust will be favorably acted upon for the benefit of the department.

RECOMMENDATIONS.
I would recommend that one more regular officer be added to the force. Under the present system there is no officer on duty from 4 o'clock A. M. until 2 o'clock P. M. By add- ing one more officer the Town can be patrolled at all hours of the day and night.
I would also recommend that some action be taken in re- gard to having warrants issued in Town, thereby saving time and expense to the department.
