Report of Milk Inspector


To the Board of Health:


Gentlemen :- I herewith submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1928:


It is doubtful if any other city or town in this Commonwealth has a system of supervision over the place and the circumstances under which its milk and cream supply is being produced and handled, as that adopted by the Board and the Commissioners of Public Health of the city of Lynn at the beginning of the year. Under the present system you have eliminated inspection by inspectors from cities and towns of dairies whose products of milk and cream never reached their commu- nities. The new system also relieves the producer of the annoyance and confusion to which he has been subjected by conflicting instructions from inspectors who never agreed as to what should be done to improve his dairy. Both the dealer and producers are enthused over the system because they now know that when instructions are given them to do certain things they can proceed without fear of interference from other inspectors.


It has also been forcibly brought to their attention that it is no longer possible for them to ignore our orders or refuse to comply with them if they desire to dispose of their milk and cream. The results that have been obtained, during the short time in which the system has been

in operation, have been highly satisfactory and will very shortly, if con- tinued, result in the citizens of Swampscott and Lynn receiving a sup- ply that will be second to none.


A total of eight hundred and ninety-four inspections have been made and five hundred and seventy-nine permits issued during the year. The inspections have been principally confined to dairies producing so-called "Market", "Regular" or "Grade B" Milk and will next year be extended to all other grades of milk and cream.


Our supply at the present time is being received from creameries located as follows:


Maine


Massachusetts


New Hampshire


Vermont


Belfast


Farmington Oakland Unity


Bedford Byfield Lynn Marblehead


Lancaster Lisbon


Barnet Bellows Falls Boltonville Concord


Middleton

The following licenses and permits have been issued during the year :


To stores


61


To dealers


25


To sell ice cream

The sum of $53.50 has been received for said licenses and this amount has been paid to the Collector and his receipt obtained.

REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH


1928]


Conditions at the Dental Clinic have been greatly improved since the appointment of a full time dentist. There is a long list of children still awaiting his attention.


Children needing special corrective care and unable to pay the ex- penses of such care have been provided for through the Swampscott Welfare Association which greatly facilitates our work with these cases.


Before the close of school in June a pre-school clinic was held where parents might bring their children to be examined and advised as to their preparation for school. These clinics were well attended. To this as all other work, the school physicians have given generously of their time.


Respectfully submitted,


M. K. HAMMOND, R.N., Health Nurse.

Inspector of Slaughtering


To the Board of Health:


Gentlemen :- I herewith submit my report for 1928. The slaugh- tering this year, as usual, has been carried on by families who have raised a few animals to slaughter for their own use.


The work has been done in compliance with the laws governing such work and the carcasses have been properly stamped.


The premises, where these animals have been slaughtered, have been clean and there has been no reason for with-holding a permit in any case.


Respectfully submitted, FRANK B. STRATTON, M.D.V., Inspector of Slaughtering.


Inspector of Animals


To the Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen :- The general inspection this year was made during January and February. so that the reports might be returned early in March. This is considered the best season of the year for this work, because the animals are usually in the barn during the winter months and, besides, their vitality is generally lower during cold weather. This would make any tendency to contagious disease more readily noticed.


The premises were kept clean and the buildings were well ventilated and had sufficient light.


The tuberculin test has been applied to some of the cattle in town this year and a few have reacted. These have been removed from the premises and the buildings were properly disinfected before new stock was brought in.


There have been several dogs placed under quarantine, that have bitten people, but in each case the animal was found to be healthy, after two weeks, restraint, and were released.


We have had two cases of rabies during the year, but in each case the condition was recognized and the animal destroyed before any damage was done.


Respectfully submitted,


FRANK B. STRATTON, M.D.V., Inspector of Animals.

Board of Public Welfare


To the Citizens of Swampscott:


We herewith submit our annual report for the year 1928. We find the past year has been an average year with one exception: The total number of dependents has decreased, but we are fully supporting double the number of persons we did last year. This is accounted for by the fact we have some families that are under the Mothers' Aid Law, but the town will be reimbursed by the State and city to which they belong.


We find the cost of taking care of all the dependents is slowly but surely increasing each year, due to the higher cost of commodities.

The Engineering Department has had charge of the following lines of work: The designing and superintending the construction of all drains and sewers; resurfacing of all streets built by contract, together with the specifications and estimates for the same; the establishing of - street lines and grades for curb stones and granolithic sidewalks; all data and plans relating to the laying out of private ways for acceptance as public streets, and all engineering questions which come before the boards of the several departments.


Sewer and Drains


The sewer system of this town has been extended in the following streets: Atlantic road, 154 feet; Franklin avenue and State road, 1,265 feet; Eastern Intercepting Sewer, 2,225 feet; Walker road, 350 feet; Fuller avenue, 252 feet; a total distance of 4,576 feet.


The above sewers required 1,210 feet of house connections and 526 cubic yards of rock excavation. Total cost of sewers, $22,754.93.


King's Brook was extended to the northerly side of Superior street at a cost of $3,479.10.


Mapledale place drain was relocated and enlarged at a cost of $1,254.12 and corrected the flood conditions at that point.


The Eastern Intercepting Sewer should be extended to Salem street, thereby making it possible to relieve the unsanitary conditions which exist within this area.


Continuous Sidewalks


Lines and grades have been given on the streets, as designated by the Board of Selectmen, for the laying of 996 linear feet of curbstone, 1,172 square yards of granolithic sidewalks.


Resurfacing Roadways


Norfolk avenue, from Paradise road to Stetson avenue, an area of 2,989 square yards, was the only street which was resurfaced with a first class asphalt penetration macadam, Massachusetts Highway speci- fication.


Assessors' Department


The yearly routine work necessary to bring the plans and card index up to date has been completed for this department.


Selectmen's Department


Data and estimates have been furnished for the Selectmen's De- partment and plans submitted for their approval.


At the request of property owners, street lines and grades have been given from time to time for the grading of lawns, building walls. etc.


Respectfully,


W. W. PRATT, Town Engineer.

1928] REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY


Trustees of the Public Library


To the Citizens of Swampscott:


The Board of Trustees of the Public Library herewith submit their report covering the administration of the Library Department during the past year. In June a communication was received from F. Keeler Rice tendering his resignation as Chairman of the Board of Trustees due to removal from town. This resignation was accepted with deep regret. Mr. Rice proved himself a most valuable member of the board for more than ten years. He gave many hours of devoted service to the Library. The Trustees feel that the town has lost a faithful and efficient servant.


In September Gustavus J. Esselen, Jr., was elected by the Select- men and Board, in joint convention, to fill Mr. Rice's place for the re- mainder of the year.


Mrs. Clara Young, who rendered very acceptable service as an assistant, left the Library staff to take up other duties in Providence. Her place was filled by Miss Lois Lane of Lynnfield.


In the report of last year the attention of the citizens was called to the feasibility of providing a branch of the Library in the Phillips Beach and Beach Bluff section of the town. This would entail a larger appropriation for Library purposes, but we feel that the added expendi- ture would be amply justified by the increased service which the Library would thus be enabled to render to the citizens in that part of the town.


The Trustees feel that the Library facilities are not adequate for a town the size of Swampscott. They would recommend that the upper room in the Library building be finished and used as a children's room. This addition would leave the main room for the use of students and adults and would relieve the congestion which often occurs and which often seriously inconveniences adult users of the Library. The room could also be used as a lecture hall.


The Sunday attendance during the winter of 1927-1928 was as fol- lows: Total attendance, 341; adults, 86; students, 112; children, 143.


The Trustees and Librarian extend their thanks and appreciation to the following persons for the gift of books during the past year:


Charles W. Hobbs, 444 Humphrey street.


Dr. and Mrs. James Fenelon, 76 Walker road.


Mrs. G. E. Jones, Beach Bluff.


Miss Mary Smith, 32 Outlook road.


John Albree, 279 Humphrey street.


Raymond Miller, 69 Fuller avenue.


George Spear, 9 Hillcrest circle.


Respectfully submitted,


LOUISE C. STANLEY, GUSTAVUS J. ESSELEN, JR. ELIHU THOMSON.
