Combination 3, having been accepted by the Board for the Town has demonstrated its value in many ways, and has given the utmost satisfaction answering all alarms in Ward 1, 2 and 3.


217


We heartily commend the spirit of the citizens of Ward 3 in presenting to the town such a valuable and capable addition to the Fire Department.


Two new fire alarm boxes have been installed as per vote of the town at the last annual meeting. They are numbered 441 and 63.


We again urge the necessity of purchasing more motor driven apparatus as we have in years past. With the conditions under which some of the Wards have to contend in regards to the haul- ing of apparatus to fires and the uncertainty at times of getting horses we believe that the question of purchasing motor apparatus should receive your earnest consideration. The Board has been obliged to go beyond the appropriation made at the annual meet- ing on account of heavy repairs to buildings and the vote of 50 cents per hour instead of 30 cents as previously paid firemen, also the added expense of the auto crew of five men answering alarms in Wards 1 and 2 thereby increasing the number of men called in these wards for all of which no provision had been made. We are of the opinion that with the purchase of more motor apparatus that the number of men in the several departments may be de- creased because of the ability of autos to convey a crew from one ward to another while at the present time a large number of men are needed to take care of each ward.

REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF FIRE ALARM.


To the Board of Engineers : .


GENTLEMEN-There has been during the past year 56 alarms as follows :


Ward 1


·


·


. 23


Ward 2 . .


.


. .


14


Ward 3 . ·


. 9 Ward 4


· 4 Ward 5


6


One general alarm and two second alarms.


Two new boxes have been installed, Box 441, corner Park and Pine Streets ; Box 63, corner Columbia and Forest Streets.


The cable which run from Fire Alarm Station to Central Square has proved faulty and has been taken down and a line of eight new wires has been run to take its place.


This will relieve a lot of the trouble which we have had with the fire alarm in the past year.


Can report the line in fairly good condition at the present time.


I would advise the same appropriation of $450.00 to continue rebuilding poor lines as in past years.


Respectfully yours,


C. F. COOLIDGE,


Superintendent of Fire Alarms.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE TUFTS LIBRARY.


The thirty-fifth annual report of the Board of Trustees of the Tufts Library is respectfully submitted as follows :


The library has been open 303 days for the delivery of books during the year 1913. The total circulation for the year has been 55,998 volumes, or an average of 185- a day, an increase of 3446 over last year. 5681 of the total number have been delivered through the schools and 20358 through the delivery stations. The largest number issued on any day was 459 on December 10 and the smallest was 32 on August 25.


The total circulation should be 438 less than this report shows ; this discrepancy is due to the fact that a collection of books sent to one of the schools was delayed in transportation. As these books were supposed to have been delivered at the school, they were considered as in circulation and thus entered upon the records.


The number distributed through the several delivery stations was as stated below :

WORK WITH THE SCHOOLS.


The circulation of 5681 volumes through the schools, including one Sunday school, shows a slight increase over that of last year, notwithstanding the fact that two of the schools have each had one deposit less than usual. Only 608 volumes have been taken by the teachers for school work.


STUDENT'S CARDS.


There have been in use 88 Student's cards on which 1145 vol- umes have been loaned.


With the Student's card a borrower may take, at one time, 10 books, not fiction, which may be kept 28 days.


VACATION PRIVILEGE.


The vacation privilege is open to all those borrowers who, when away from home, desire to keep books beyond the usual two weeks and permits the taking of several books, not recent publications, for an extended time.


INTER-LIBRARY LOAN.


The inter-library loan system enables a library to obtain for its borrowers, from larger libraries, loans of works on special sub- jects which it does not possess.

.

.


.


223


We have had occasion this year to take advantage of this privilege for one of our borrowers who desired two books from the Boston Public library and a neighboring library has borrowed · a few books from us for its patrons.


REGISTRATION OF BORROWERS.


There have been 415 applications for cards this year making a total of 3044 since the beginning of the present registration in April, 1909.


EXAMINATION OF BOOKS.


The annual inventory, made as usual, shows that 10 books are still unaccounted for; 46 books have been lost, of which 17 were paid for by the borrowers. Of the books previously re- ported missing 3 have been found. 137 volumes unfit for circu- lation have been discarded.


Of the books reported lost this year 27 were from the school circulation, which is unusual as the teachers generally maintain a careful supervision over the school deposits.


ACCESSIONS.


Of the 1139 volumes added to the library, 104 were donations, 128 replacements, 108 bound periodicals, and 7 volumes of the Weymouth town reports. 200 volumes have been rebound.


The * town reports include the years from 1834 to 1910, the earlier copies having been presented by Mrs. Susan C. Humphrey.


A list of books, outside of fiction, purchased during the year, except those listed elsewhere in this report, may be found under General litera- ture and Music in Appendix A.


For a list of books purchased from the Susannah Hunt Stetson Fund and the Angustus J. Richards Fund see Appendix B.


READING AND REFERENCE ROOM.


The additions to the reference department during the year are : American year book, 1912 ; Baker's Guide to the best fiction in English ; Chambers' Book of days, 2 v. ; Funk & Wagnalls new standard dictionary ; Hazell's annual, 1913; New international


* If the citizens of Weymonth have any town reports of an earlier date which they are willing to present to the library the trustees would be glad to receive them.

year book, 1912; New Schaff-Herzog encyclopedia of religious knowledge, 12v. ; Philip's Dickens dictionary ; Stephen & Lee's Dictionary of national biography, 22v. & 2d sup. ; Tribune al- manac, 1913 ; Vital records of Massachusetts, including Carver, Duxbury, Framingham, Hopkinton, Hull, Newburyport, Vol. 2, Sherborn, Stow and Worthington ; Weymouth directory, 1913-14 ; Whitaker's almanack, 1913; World's almanac, 1913.


The checklist of United States public documents, 1,789-1909 and the eighth edition of Dewey's Decimal classification have been added to the cataloguing department.


The list of periodicals as seen in Appendix C shows the fol- lowing changes :


Seven new periodicals have been added ; The Modern Priscilla, Sunset, and The Technical world, by subscription ; Arts and decoration, The Gospel trumpet, Our fourfooted friends, and Our message, by gift. The Boston common, The Cosmopolitan, Nau- tilus and New England have been discontinued. The Electrician and mechanic is now Modern electrics and mechanics.


ART EXHIBITIONS.


Fifteen collections of pictures have been received from the Library Art club and exhibited in the Reading room; the sub- jects represented being : Food and game fishes of New York ; Wells cathedral; Missions of Southern California; Colonial architecture in South Carolina and Georgia ; Animals' picnic and Animals' pleasure excursion ; Etchings by William Unger, No. 3 ; Pictures in Buckingham palace and Windsor castle, Part IV .; Forestry ; Art for the nursery, by Walter Crane, No. 2; Rise of architecture in Italy ; Old English masters ; Manufacture of iron and steel ; Examples of Japanese textile fabrics in color, Part II ; Cattle and dairy products ; Balloons and aeroplanes.


GIFTS.


Public documents have been received regularly ; books and pamphlets have come from many sources ; 38 libraries have pre- sented reports, bulletins and other publications.


The additions to the list of periodicals given to the library in- clude : Arts and decoration, presented by Mr. Warren Weston ; Our message, from the Woman's Christian temperance union ;


225


The Gospel trumpet, from the publishers ; and Our fourfooted friends, from a friend.


A cast of the Winged Victory, or Nike of Samothrace, with a mahogany pedestal, presented by Miss Alice Lillian McGregor, has been placed in the Reading room, thereby increasing the dig- nity and attractiveness of the room.


A number of relics of historical interest, presented by Mrs. Mary Fifield King, have been added to the Fiffeld collection pre- viously given to the library by Mrs. King and her mother, the late Mrs. Emily A. Fifield.


The trustees acknowledge these gifts and thank the donors whose names will be found in Appendix D.


To make available for reference work the periodicals and pub- lic documents stored in the third story which were disturbed at the time of the laying of the new floor in 1910, it had become necessary to provide for their rearrangement, and during the year this work has been accomplished ; new shelves have been built and the books and periodicals placed in order thus making this valuable reference material again accessible.


It has been necessary also to provide additional shelves for the stack room in order to relieve the congestion; this relief is but temporary, however, as the present stacks will accommodate no more shelves.


As additional stacks will be needed in the coming year, the trustees hope to be able to supply these in steel and also to replace some of the wooden ones with the more desirable two- story steel stacks.


The requirements of the Post-office Department, to which a part of the library building is rented, called for more modern fur- nishings including mail boxes and a new safe; the supplying of these improvements necessitated the expenditure of nearly $750.


As this extra demand could not be met from the regular ap- propriation the trustees borrowed the needed amount from the Weymouth Savings Bank feeling justified in so doing because of the increase in the rent to be received on account of these changes.
