Report of the Park Commission
REPORT OF THE PARK COMMISSION FOR 1920
The money appropriated by the Town to be expended under the direction of the Park Commission has been used to the best advantage, although we have found an unfortu- nate lack of interest on the part of some of our citizens in taking the proper civic pride in certain locations. We believe this is largely owing to the general unrest and is not due to the fact that they do not take a real interest in the welfare of Scituate. The funds appropriated for "Light-House" improvements have been expended with a view to perma- nency, and we believe that the work accomplished has added much to what will be a valuable asset to historic Scituate.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM H. NORTH, JOHN. F. DALBY, FRANK H. BARRY, Park Commissioners.
The improvements at Minot, carried on out of funds contributed by the North Scituate Beach Association, are not yet completed, having been stopped by the cold weather. These improvements will, however, be continued in the spring, and probably finished early in the season. Details of expen- ditures will be found in the treasurer's report.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM H. NORTH, Chairman of Park Commission.

Report of Tree Warden
REPORT OF TREE WARDEN
To the Selectmen and Town Citizens:
I have this year planted seventy-six trees. Most of them are ones reset in different parts of the Town. There are very few streets in our Town that have not shade trees. I have mowed around all trees and given them a fair amount of fertilizer. They are all growing and will in time make fine trees.
The bushes are a great problem. They seem to grow very fast, and should be mowed every year. We have a good many miles of streets in our Town that are very narrow and, if the bushes are let to grow, make travel dan- gerous.
We have also many blind corners that if we do not look after, accidents will be numerous.
I wish to state that the North Scituate Improvement Association has taken a great interest in shade trees in that part of the Town. They have bought from the Bay State Nursery some handsome lindens and maples that will in time make that part of the Town very attractive.
Considering our position as a Town where a great many people come to spend the summer, I think we should make it as attractive as possible, for they are a class that appreciate natural beauties.
Respectfully,
WILLIAM FORD. .

Report of Board of Health
REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH
To the Citizens of Scituate we present our report for the year 1920:
There has been no epidemic in Town during the year and about the usual number of cases reported.
Scarlet fever, thirteen cases; measles, fifteen cases; whoop- ing cough, nine cases; diphtheria, five cases; mumps, three cases; typhoid fever, four cases; tuberculosis, two cases.
We have inspected every dairy and cow-barn in Scituate twice during the year and we are happy to report that there is a marked improvement since our first inspection and our recommendations have been carried out in most cases.
We have had a good many complaints about the dumping of rubbish, tin cans and such like, in some cases where they annoy residents, and in other places where they become a public nuisance. We recommend that anybody who has tin cans to dispose of, dig a hole in the ground and bury them. Otherwise they create flies, insects of all kinds and give off offensive odors.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM P. GROVESTEIN, GEORGE T. OTIS, JOHN W. BURKE,
Board of Health.

Report of Chief of Police
REPORT OF CHIEF OF POLICE
Scituate, Mass., December 31,1920.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
Gentlemen: I hereby submit the Annual Report of the Police Department, for the year 1920.
This department has been called upon to take care of the interests of the people of the Town of Scituate and others, far in excess of any year since the Police Department has been established. At the beginning of the year 1920, a series of breaks in the summer residential sections at Minot, Shore Acres and Humarock Beach, occurred. As soon as the police were notified, which was not until several houses had been entered and complaints from their owners made, the Chief, after consulting with the Selectmen, deemed it advisable and just, to give whatever protection could be given to safeguard the premises with a view of capturing and bringing to justice the persons who were engaged in this looting business. While the police were not successful in making any arrests, their presence had the effect of putting a stop to any further depredations. The expense attending this guard duty ran up to quite a high figure, and as soon as it was considered safe the men were called from this special duty. About the same time, or a little later, a number of burglaries took place at the stores in North Scituate. It was necessary to have some special assistance in this case, and while it added to the cost of the Police Department, we feel that the money was well expended, as the culprits were apprehended, tried, found guilty and served a short sentence in the House of Correction at Plymouth, after which they were released on probation, and ordered to make full restitution to the owners of the stolen goods.
121
Report of Chief of Police
The increase in automobile traffic over the previous year made it necessary to detail extra men to take care of this situation.
In the early part of October, one of our citizens was brutally assaulted by a man whom she had employed for some time, who after committing the crime stole her car and vanished from Town. The police immediately took steps to apprehend the culprit, and find the stolen car. A reward of $300 was offered by the Chief for information that would lead to his apprehension. After several weeks the Chief received word from Philadelphia that this car was in storage at a garage in that city, and he with Sergeant Litchfield made a trip to Philadelphia, in order to get what information they could and bring the car back to Scituate. No trace of the party who left the car at the garage could be found, but the officers were informed that the photograph of the person whom they were looking for, which they had in their possession, answered in every particular to the man who left the car at the garage. The expense of this trip was paid out of the police funds. It was absolutely necessary that the police should get the car in their possession, as it established a very important factor in the evidence against the party who they are convinced committed the crime.
For the year 1921 I would recommend an appropriation of six thousand dollars ($6000) for the Police Department.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN F. TURNER, Chief of Police.
122
Report of Fire Department
REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT
The Board of Selectmen:
Gentlemen: The Board of Engineers appointed by your honorable Board for the year ending April.30, 1921, met in accordance with your instructions and organized with the following officers:
Charles M. Litchfield, chief; Alfred B. Cole, first assistant chief; Joseph P. Murphy, second assistant chief; Harry M. Litchfield, district chief; Frank W. Litchfield, district chief and clerk of board.
This department has been called to twenty-one (21) alarms for buildings and fourteen (14) tor forest fires during the year. Total value of buildings involved is $211,075; insured for $65,750. Damage caused by fires, $3945, which is less than a two per cent loss.
We are still of the opinion that the Town should have some adequate equipment, namely a motor-driven pumping engine for the protection of our public buildings and congested areas.
Respectfully yours,
CHARLES M. LITCHFIELD, Chief.
ALFRED B. COLE, First Assistant Chief.
JOSEPH P. MURPHY, Second Assistant Chief. HARRY M. LITCHFIELD,
FRANK W. LITCHFIELD, Clerk of Board.

Report of the Welcome Home Committee
REPORT OF WELCOME HOME COMMITTEE
To the Board of Selectmen, Scituate, Massachusetts.
Gentlemen: As Chairman of the Scituate Welcome Home Committee I have to report:
Immediately after the annual Town Meeting held lost year, at which $8000 was voted for the completion of Memorial Park, your Committee, through Olmsted Brothers, landscape architects, sent out specifications of the work to be done and requested bids thereon. Several bids were sub- mitted and the contract was awarded to Morrison & Gillis. Your committee feels that the finished park is the best evidence as to the wisdom of the award.
In addition to the work done on the park, your committee purchased, and had placed on the large boulder a supple- mentary tablet containing several names which through error were left off the original tablet. Medals were also pre- sented to all whose names were placed on the supplementary tablet.
· As per his promise to the Town's voters, your chairman has personally contributed cash to the Welcome Home Fund to the amount of $1,132.61, in order that all bills contracted might be paid. Furthermore, he has personally contributed, and which is not included in the Treasurer's report, addi- tional trees to the value of $645.89, labor in setting trees and for the care of the park during the summer months amount- ing to approximately $1000, a fountain for the pool valued at a great many dollars, also flowers, etc.
Through the efforts of the Grand Army and the Board of Selectmen, two large trench mortars were secured from the Government and have been put in place near the point of the park which is formed by Central and Willow Streets.
Some other improvements to the park are contemplated,
124
Report of the Welcome Home Committee
viz: the removal of the line of telephone poles on the Willow Street side, the relocating of the flag pole and the planting of additional trees and shrubs.
The careful mowing and treatment of the grass on the park last summer contributed much to the beautiful lawn which resulted, and, while this work will not be so expensive during the coming season, it is very important that it should be kept up; and your chairman recommends that an article be inserted in the Town Warrant asking for an appropriation of $500 for this purpose, the same to be expended under the direction of the Welcome Home Committee, and your chairman agrees to supply any deficiency if this sum is inadequate to properly take care of the work.
The Treasurer's report follows, which shows receipts and disbursements in detail.
Respectfully submitted,
THOMAS W. LAWSON, Chairman. -

Report of the Clean-Up Committee
REPORT OF THE CLEAN-UP COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Scituate:
Clean-Up Week was observed in Scituate May 17-22, 1920. The campaign was well advertised by flyers dis- tributed by the pupils of the Jenkins and Hatherly Schools and by the clergymen in the various churches, the Scituate Herald, the screens at the moving picture theatres, and posters designed and drawn by grammar school pupils.
The committee is indebted to these pupils in the graded schools, who assisted in this clean-up work without remu- neration of any kind and we take this opportunity of express- ing our thanks to them and the teachers who directed the work.
It was found necessary this year to turn over a part of the Ridge Hill Pit used for a dump at Scituate Harbor, and this was done in preparation for Clean-Up Week.
The same method of collecting and disposing of rubbish was pursued as in previous years, teams being sent to the premises of persons notifying the committee.
The rubbish barrels were placed at convenient points and cared for during the season from May to October by the Boy Scout Troop at North Scituate and David O'Hern at Scituate Harbor.
One additional barrel was purchased, lettered and placed at the Sand Hills Post Office.
Following is the report of the treasurer:

Report of the Scituate Historical Society
REPORT OF THE SCITUATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY
During the year just closed the Cudworth House has been the scene of much activity. In the year to come the society plans to take an active part in the tercentenary Pilgrim anniversary celebrations. Scituate, three hundred years ago, stood next in colonial importance to Plymouth itself and for the fifty years preceding the amalgamation with Massachusetts Bay it was in the lead of all of the Old Colony towns. It has much in history that is worthy of remark and attention and the Society feels that in this tercentenary year an adequate Town appropriation should be made to celebrate them.
From among the members of the Society donations have been made which are sufficient to refurnish the north chamber and place appropriate furnishings in it.
Respectfully submitted,
SILAS PEIRCE, President.

Report of Committee on Street Nomenclature
REPORT OF THE STREET NOMENCLATURE COMMITTEE
Following the appropriation by the Town at the last annual meeting of the sum of two hundred and fifty dollars to be expended in new signboards of the design recently established, your committee placed orders with Mr. Jesse P. Litchfield covering the appropriation for new signboards for its amount.
At about the same time he entered into a contract with the Pilgrim Tercentenary Commission for the creation of one hundred signboards of the same design as those which have in the last five years been erected in our Town, to mark the Plymouth and Bay Road, the Massachusetts Path, the Country Way and the King's Highway, as these ancient highways extend through the counties of Suffolk, Norfolk, Plymouth and Barnstable from Boston to Province- town. The work for Scituate is being done in connection with this contract and all will be ready for placing in the spring. In this connection it is worthy of comment that the Pilgrim Tercentenary Commission, before making the above contract, submitted the design of the signboards to the Art Commission. This body not only approved the design, but commended highly its beauty and appropriateness.
MARY A. FORD, For the Committee.
Scituate, January 7, 1921.
