Recommendations
1. That the sewer be extended on Norfolk avenue, between Stetson avenue and Paradise road, a distance of about 450 feet, in order to ac- commodate new houses that have been constructed and cannot possibly be taken care of by cesspools.
2. That the grade of Huron street be raised so that in times of flood the Lynn sewage will flow towards Eastern avenue instead of being deposited in Huron street, Swampscott, as it is at present.
3. We also RECOMMEND that the Eastern intercepting sewer shall be extended so it will be possible for the town to sewer the Eastern section.
The board RECOMMENDS the following appropriations for the en- suing year:
Health and sanitation
$9,386 75
Refuse and garbage
$15,530 00

REPORT OF HEALTH NURSE
1926]
Report of Health Nurse
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen :- I herewith submit a report of work done during the year ending December 31, 1926.
All children in the schools have had physical examinations and sight and hearing tests. They have also been weighed and measured at in- tervals during the school year, and parents notified of defects found.
Children in first six grades have been examined for defective teeth and parents notified, with a result that much of the dental work necessary has been done by family dentists. The most urgent cases where children cannot have their own dentist, have been cared for in the school clinic. This school clinic, functioning one half day a week, is doing splendid work, but does not begin to meet the need of urgent cases existing among the school children.
Parochial school children have been examined at intervals during the year when exposed to contagious disease. During these visits I find many physical defects and through the co-operation of parents and sisters have been corrected. About seventy-five (75) per cent. of these children have defective teeth, many of which seemed to be effect- ing the children's health.
During the past year marked improvement has been shown of the physical condition of all school children. It is also interesting to note the decrease in the mentally retarded children examined annually by the State clinic in our schools.

Report of Dental Clinic
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen :- We herewith submit the following report of work done in the dental clinic during the year ending December 31, 1926.
The operating time of clinic consists of one morning each week from nine until twelve. At the beginning of the school year all teeth were examined in grades from first to sixth inclusive. A very thorough examination was given at this time. Records of these findings were sent to parents and through co-operation of all concerned we feel that the dental conditions of the Swampscott school children have been greatly benefitted.

Report of Milk Inspector
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen :- I herewith submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1926:
Although the transportation problem has been a subject of much concern among the producers and distributors for some time, the seriousness of the situation was not fully realized until this year, when curtailment of train service and the rearrangement of schedules made it impossible for the producers of southern New Hampshire to ship their milk to dealers in this vicinity. While some of the larger deal- ers were able to render some assistance to the producers by diverting the milk from the affected section to their plants located near the point of production, such arrangement did not take care of the situation locally. The acquisition of new producers, therefore, became neces- sary, and as a result the sources of our milk supply are now further removed than ever and are naturally more difficult to supervise.
Dairy inspection and the supervision of the methods and the condi- tions under which all grades of milk are produced and handled has been made compulsory by the provisions of Section 43 of Chapter 94 of the General Laws as amended by Chapter 122 of the Acts of 1924 and further by Chapter 310 of the Acts of 1924. Dairy inspection has therefore become a very essential part of the work of the Milk In- spector.
In accordance with the requirements of said laws your inspector has, so far as possible, inspected the dairies producing the milk supply of this town. While I found many of the producers willing to co- operate and comply with my recommendations for improvement in both the quality of their milk and the conditions surrounding their dairies, I also found many more who could see no reason for any change from their former methods and who assumed the attitude that as long as they were able to drink the milk and it had never made them sick, they could see no reason why there should be any danger to others. This type of producer is a public menace and should be driven out of business. Producers of this kind were given no consider- ation and the dealer notified to stop handling milk from those dairies.
The following is a summary of the inspections made during the year:
Total inspections 1320
Grade A permits issued

Grade B permits issued 255
Grade A permits refused 263
Grade A permits revoked 58

REPORT OF MILK INSPECTOR
1926]
During the year many inquiries have been received relative to the quality of the milk supply of the various dealers. This has been due to the entrance of new dealers and their competition for new busi- ness. From the inspector's standpoint competition of this nature is desirable, because it not only creates an interest among our citizens, "but it is also instrumental in proving to the dealer that he cannot con- tinue to handle an inferior quality of milk if he desires to hold his business.

Report of Inspector of Slaughtering
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen :- The slaughtering this year has been carried on as usual, principally by families who have raised one or more pigs for their own use. These animals, in most cases, have been free from contagious disease and have been in good condition otherwise.
There has been more cattle slaughtered this year than usual, but these animals were in good condition with the exception of two or three, which were underweight and were condemned.
There has been no tuberculosis or other contagious diseases found among any of the animals that have been slaughtered in town this year.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANK B. STRATTON. M. D. V., Inspector of Slaughtering.

REPORT OF ANIMAL INSPECTOR
1926]
Report of Animal Inspector
To the Board of Selectmen:
Gentlemen :- There has been one general inspection this year, as usual, and, in most cases, the animals were healthy and the premises were in good order. We have had several cases of rabies in town this year and quite a number of people have taken the Pasteur treatment.
In this connection it seems well to caution people against patting strange dogs that appear to be lost or "tired," for this does the dog no good and might do the person considerable harm. It is more or less dangerous to interfere with strange dogs. If a person is bitten by an unknown dog, the first thing to do is to have the wound cauter- ized with "fuming" nitric acid and then, of course, consult a physician.
I would recommend immunizing all dogs, and if this was conscien- tiously done, it would be the means of practically stamping out this disease in a comparative short time. The treatment is humane and inexpensive.
In some States this immunizing treatment has been recognized to the extent that dogs that have been vaccinated may run at large dur- ing an outbreak of rabies.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANK B. STRATTON, M. D. V., Inspector of Animals.

Report of Water and Sewerage Board
WATER DEPARTMENT
1
To the Citizens of Swampscott:
We submit herewith our annual report for the year ending Decem- ber 31, 1926.
For another year the department has completed its work without. borrowing money. We believe the result attained by this method justifies us in following the same policy as far as is possible, for another year.
As a result of this policy, it will be noted by referring to the- financial statement that the Water department debt has decreased over $36,000 in the last two years.
We also wish to call your attention to the sinking fund being built. up to pay the $150,000 of the water debt due on August 1, 1928. This. fund now amounts to approximately $144,000 and the ordinary income from this amount during this year (1927) will very nearly reach the. necessary amount.

Sewer Department
We do not know at present of any serious requirements for new sewers. In view of this fact, and provided that no actual necessity for sewer construction is shown elsewhere, we would recommend that. work be started to extend the Eastern Intercepting Sewer from its present eastern terminus as far as is possible and consistent with existing conditions, and that a sufficient sum of money be appropri- ated to carry out this work.
