REPORT OF COMMITTEE FOR THE OBSERVANCE OF MEMORIAL DAY
To the Citizens of the Town of Weymouth :-
At the Annual Town Meeting held in March 1943, it was voted under Article 1, Item 34, that a Committee be appointed by the Moderator - who shall designate the Chairman - from the various Veteran and Hereditary Organizations, in accordance with the provisions of the General Laws (Tercentenary Edition) Chapter 40, Section 5, Clause 12.
The following were appointed :
Henry B. Vogell, Commander Reynolds Post 58, G. A.R. (Honorary Chairman) Fred Webb, Commander Weymouth Post 79, American Legion. (Chairman) Alfred W. Cadman, Commander Wessagusett Post 1399, V.F. W. Ralph T. Cipullo, Sr. Vice Commander Wessagusett Post 1399, V. F. W. Carl Paulson, Jr. Vice Commander Weymouth Post 79, American Legion Charles Downing, Past Commander General James L. Bates Camp 36, S.U.V. Mrs. Clara B. Wooten, President Dorothea L. Dix Tent 32, D. U. V.
6 meetings were held, all of which were well attended and harmonious. Commander Vogell asked that if possible the Committee follow the program of former years, and regretted being unable to attend the meetings. The Committee were of general opinion that as Memorial Day was a reverent and solemn occasion, that it was fitting to carry out the observance by the Town of Weymouth on Sunday May 30th; also it was felt that there would be a larger attendance at the various cemeteries throughout the Town . on the day set apart for paying honor to the departed Veterans of all Wars, rather than on the following day.
A flag and potted plant or wreath was placed on each Veterans grave' during the week of Memorial Day, and Memorial Monuments and Public Squares throughout the Town were suitably decorated.
The members of the Committee accompanied Mrs. Mary Talbot to the State House on Thursday afternoon May 27th, where brief but im- pressive services were held, after which Mrs. Talbot placed a wreath on the plaque bearing the name of her son, Lt. Ralph C. Talbot. Memorial Day Exercises in the schools, through the courtesy of Mr. Charles R. Thibodeau, Supt. and Pastors of Parochial Schools, were carried out on Friday May 28th.
On Memorial Day, the parade was formed by Chief Marshal Mr. Alfred W. Cadman, Commander Wessagusett Post 1399, V. F. W., a Hurley Square (Thomas' Corner) returning again to the custom of many years standing. All cemeteries were visited, and appropriate services held, with .exercises of Reynolds Post 58, G. A. R., being conducted at St. Francis Xavier Cemetery. The parade was reviewed by Commander Henry B. Vogell, at the conclusion of the services at Fairmount Cemetery, and a beautiful bouquet was presented by the Chairman, Mr. Fred Webb, following which the parade proceeded to Wm. E. Johnson Square, where it disbanded.
The Committee wishes to express their appreciation and thanks to the Town Officials, the Police, Fire, Street and School Departments, 14th Company, Mass. State Guard, the various Veteran and Hereditary organizations and Auxiliaries, Mr. George Wm. Ventre, Director of Ameri- can Legion Band, the Boy Scouts of America, and to all who assisted in the observance of Memorial Day 1943.
Let us hope and pray that before another Memorial Day that Victory will be assured, and with the return home of our sons and daughters from the various branches of the service, we shall enjoy a deep and lasting peace.
Respectfully submitted, Clara B. Wooten, Clerk of Committee

WEYMOUTH, MASSACHUSETTS 1943
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT
To the Board of Water Commissioners :-
Restrictions by the War Production Board have continued through the greater part of 1943 to limit the construction of new work. Greater em- phasis, therefore, has been placed on maintenance of the present system such as overhauling equipment at the Pumping Station, repairing hydrants, checking valves and locations, and painting.
During this year, a program of sealing meters was adopted. Pursuant to instructions from the Federal Securities Agency and the State Department of Public Health, chlorination was begun in December. Permission was granted to the Naval Air Station to connect a 12 inch fire line to our sys- tem at Reed Avenue Standpipe.
Authorization from the War Production Board was received in Decem- ber for the construction of the new well supply at Circuit Avenue. This work will proceed in 1944.
It is recommended that the program of reinforcement of mains be con- tinued this coming year, and the restriction on the use of garden hose and sprinklers, between 5 and 9 P.M., 'be continued in 1944 to maintain pres- sures in the system for fire fighting during peak demand.
Your Superintendent wishes to express appreciation for the co-operation of the Board of Water Commissioners, as well as the Fire, Police, Street, and other Departments of the Town.
The following tabulations will summarize some of the activities of the Department during 1943.
Respectfully · submitted, SYDNEY C. BEANE, Superintendent
