REPORT OF THE PARK COMMISSIONERS.
The Board of Park Commissioners has the honor to submit herewith its annual report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1911.
The care and maintenance of our parks has proceeded along the usual lines, commencing in the spring with a general cleaning up, the planting of any new trees, shrubs or flowers, and continu- ing through the season from time to time with such work as is necessary to keep the grounds looking presentable. Webb Park has been used as a playground pretty freely by the boys, and by the general public as a delightful place to visit for rest, recrea- tion, outdoor air and exercise. Combined with beautiful views, as such it is invaluable to the citizens of the town, and well re- pays for the small amount of money spent on it. The following statement shows the receipts and expenditures on account of Webb Park and balance unexpended :

Beals Park has had the usual amount of care. The bed of pond has been cleaned, and other work done as needed from time to time during the year. The park is used a great deal by the children as a playground, and for that reason it is much more work to keep it looking well.
Following is a statement of receipts and expenditures at this park, viz. :

Great Hill Park remains as last reported, but it is now time that steps should be taken toward putting it in condition for en- joyment of the citizens of the town. North Weymouth, or Old Spain, as it was generally called in earlier times, has so far grown and developed within the last five years that deference should be given to the needs of permanent citizens in that part of the town as well as to the gratification of the large number of summer resi- dents in that locality. Hereafter the expense involved in the maintenance and development of this park should be much greater than in the past.
Respectfully submitted,

WATER COMMISSIONERS' REPORT. JANUARY, 1, 1912.
The Board organized March 20, 1911, by the choice of Douglas M. Easton, Chairman ; Frank HI. Torrey, Clerk ; John H. Stetson, Treasurer.
Frank H. Torrey was chosen Registrar and Collector, he to be paid $250.00 and expenses, the Commissioners to pay for his bond.
Miss C. E. Briggs continues Clerk at office at a salary of $500.00.
I. M. Low continues Superintendent at a salary of $750.00.
C. B. Cushing continues as accountant at a salary of $250.00.
G. W. Sargent continues as Engineer at Pumping Station at a salary of $1,050.00.
The problem of an equitable supply of water still confronts us. During the three summer months the cry from the higher levels is more water ! More water ! Just how to satisfy the demand is somewhat of a proposition. In our opinion, there are three ways, which if put into effect might to a certain extent satisfy more people, viz : an additional supply pipe from the pond to the Pump- ing Station, to be independent of the high service; increasing the size of the main line from the Pumping Station to Central and Lincoln Squares at least 30 per cent. ; installation of meters. The first and second would no doubt entail an expense of $20,000, and would be problematical without assurity. The third "instal- lation of meters " would, in our opinion, be the most feasible, the least expensive, and surely the most equitable. In 1909 we asked for an appropriation of $5,000 for the purpose of install- ing meters, but the citizens not looking at the subject from our side of the question, voted at the Town Meeting to indefinitely postpone the matter. If we had been authorized to install meters at that time, from any surplus, we have from the income, received from the water rents, we would have had the system well started. As it is an undisputed fact that the department will not be on a sound business basis until any water taker can have all the water ' he is willing to pay for at any time.
242
The town has a valuable asset in its water works and after the bonds are paid in 1914 should be able to install all meters from the income of the department, but the installation should be started at once. We trust you will so vote at the next town meeting.
Previous to 1911 the town raised $5,000.00 annually for the care and maintenance of hydrants and drinking fountains, this, however, was taken away last year; in our opinion a fair rental should be raised by the town, as every citizen, whether a water taker or not, is indirectly benefitted by having its hydrants kept in good condition.
For the last two years your Commissioners have been placed in an unpleasant and unenviable position regarding matters pertain- ing to the boating and fishing on the pond. We realized that as time went on, building on the shores might have a tendency to produce undesirable conditions, and believing that the prohibiting . of boating would materially lessen such conditions (though quite a portion of the water takers favor the continuation of boating believ- ing as they no doubt did that no trouble would arise ), we placed the matter before the town at two annual meetings as well as a special meeting but without any definite results. We had hoped that by bringing the matter before the people who use the water, it would be more amicably settled than by our taking advantage of the powers delegated to us by the State Board of Health, to use our . discretion as to the issuing of permits. Here is where we probably made our mistake. Had we used the authority delegated to us and posted notices forbidding boating and fishing and consulted no one, which we did later on, there might have been less friction, but we were deluded by the belief that the town at the first intimation would take definite action, but they did not. We believe, how- ever, that a large majority of the voters will consider the step we have taken to be for the best interest of all concerned. The town having failed to act and feeling that something definite should be done to protect our most valuable asset and believing the sooner it was done the better it would be, and as we could not see our way clear to issue permits only to responsible persons, as was . suggested by the Counsel for those in favor of boating, before the State Board of Health, we caused the following notices to be posted around the pond : "All boating or entering upon Weymouth Great Pond is hereby strictly prohibited " by order of the Commissione's. Receiving information that this notice was disregarded by some
243
people, we, through the Selectmen, arranged for a police patrol with the result that two persons were summoned into court, their cases were appealed to the Superior Court which confirmed the decree of the lower court, the cases are, we understand, to be taken on exceptions to the Supreme Court. Sometime after the notices forbidding boating were posted, two persons were drowned in the pond, which is one more reason to use every legitimate means to guard well the source of our water supply.
We ask for an appropriation of $5,000 for the purpose of new construction that may be found necessary ; $5,000 for the pur- pose of installing meters ; also appropriation from the revenue of the works as follows :
Interest on bonds
