It will be necessary to provide a new 200-yard rifle range the coming year as the old one has been sold by the owners of the property. A new range can be built at a minimum cost at the 1,000-yard range on Haverhill street.
The town boundary between the towns of Wakefield and Stoneham has been perambulated.
The town bound on Railroad street between the towns of Wakefield and Reading has been relocated, it being found by engineers to be over 100 feet northwest of its true position.
Coal for all departments of the town except light department has been purchased from C. A. Cheney, and found satisfactory.
The selectmen have extended to the mayor and a committee from the city of Melrose their hearty cooperation in an effort to abate the present nuisance arising from sale stables and saloons near the North Union station in Boston.
Extensive repairs have been made on the town hall boiler. R. F. Draper was appointed janitor of the town hall.
Land was taken on Nahant and Traverse streets for the new school house.
One new hydrant was set on Main street opposite the residence of T. F. Martin, Esq., and one on Elm square.
A new vault was installed in the town hall under joint super- vision of the selectmen and a special committee. This vault is large and convenient, with room for every record of every department, and enough extra to last many years. It is fire proof and a model vault in every way.
The selectmen's and treasurer's rooms have been repainted and decorated.
Conference has been held with the water rate committee and S. K. Hamilton, Esq., president of the Wakefield Water Com- pany, regarding hydrant rental rates, but no reduction was obtained.
The oil paintings in the hall of the town hall have been repaired. This contract is not yet completed.
Conference has been held with the board of health regarding the threatening smallpox epidemic.
74
We recommend that a new fence be built in the old cemetery on the north and south lines.
Sixty-six meetings have been held by the selectmen. Sixty- one building permits have been issued for buildings estimated in value over $130,000.
2,829 checks have been drawn on the town for a total of $268,190.39.

Report of the Library Trustees.
The trustees of the Beebe town library and public reading room submit the following as their annual report.
The public library is a department of public education and a valuable adjunct and supplement to the schools, and merits the liberal support of the citizens. The use of the library grows from year to year as shown by the increased number of card holders and the greater circulation of books. Its use for refer- ence has also largely increased, members of the numerous clubs and societies making frequent demands upon its resources. Special privileges and courtesies are extended to the teachers of the schools, of which they quite generally avail themselves, and about one hundred books are in use at the various schools con- tinually. The scholars also are encouraged to make use of the library in connection with their school work, and are doing so to a considerable extent. Increased reference to the magazines through the aid of Poole's Index is quite noticeble.
With the contracted quarters and limited appropriations, the endeavors of the trustees to enlarge the usefulness of the library have been only moderately successful, but they hope some im- provement may be seen from year to year. The building of the vault in the town hall in a corner taken from the corridor has called attention to the corresponding corner, adjoining the pres- ent library room, which it is thought could be added thereto with- out great expense, thereby materially increasing the size of the room and allowing the placing of tables for the accommodation of persons consulting the library. This want has long been manifest, and as this solution of the problem has been suggested by several citizens, with which suggestion the trustees heartily agree, they feel they would not be true to their trust if they failed to refer to it at this time. The expense, it is thought, would not exceed $500, and to bring the matter before the town an article has been prepared for insertion in the annual warrant.
80
Mrs. H. A. Shepard, who has served as librarian for the past fifteen years, was re-elected at the beginning of the year, and has given faithful and conscientious service.
During the year the library room has been made brighter and more cheery by the removal of the heavy inside blinds and the substitution of curtains, thus doing away with numerous lurking places for dust and dirt. Further improvement could be made in this direction by replacing the heavy woodwork by lighter wood or iron. Should the room be enlarged, as suggested, pos- sibly this work also could be accomplished.
The library possesses many books, valuable by reason of age, rarity, author, or former ownership, and a number of these have been displayed in a case in the room. This has occasioned com- ment and inquiry and stimulated interest, thus advertising the library, which pays for a library as for a business. Other old and valuable books have been protected from dust and careless handling by being placed in a locked compartment on the library shelves. A selection from these books, with others of interest, was displayed at the book exhibit of the Educational Association, and served still further to advertise the library's treasures. This exhibit entailed much extra work on the part of the librarian, which was cheerfully performed by her.
It has been usual to close the library for two weeks in August, but believing there was no real necessity for so doing, the library has been kept open continuously the past year, and 1876 books were delivered in August, while in two weeks of August in the preceding year 790 were issued.
As in previous years, a number of persons have shown their interest by gifts to the library, and the trustees desire in this public manner to thank all such,-their names will be found in the librarian's statistics. It seemed proper that the town, through the trustees, should formally and officially recognize such gifts, and a form of acknowledgment has been prepared, which, in future, will be sent to all donors.
The invested funds for the benefit of the library have been Increased by a bequest of $2,000, by the late Cyrus G. Beebe, a son of the worthy citizen from whom the library takes its name, and member of a family by whose generosity it has often bene-
81
fited. As the extent of their help to the library seems not to be generally realized, the trustees desire to call special attention to these funds which now amount to $6,500. Of the amount used for the purchase of books the present year, more than half was the income of these funds, and of the 280 books purchased, 179 were purchased with this income. All books purchased with the income of these funds are appropriately labeled.
The question of what books to buy is a troublesome one with all libraries. Complaint is frequently made by readers that it is impossible to obtain the new and popular books, but, though only one copy is purchased, it is constantly in use, and even ten or twenty copies would not supply the immediate demand. In the words of another, "The demand for the latest new novel, merely because it is the latest new novel, cannot be met by the public library." The trustees endeavor to make a wise selection of current fiction, but add many interesting works of travel, biography, history, science, etc., as reference to the monthly bulletins will show. A few volumes of standard works in French and German have also been added during the year. Suggestions both as to books and methods are invited from users of the library, and blanks are at hand for recommending the purchase of books. It is not always possible or expedient to comply with such suggestions, but all will be given careful thought and attention.
Many books are worn out each year, and quite a number are destroyed in consequence of exposure to contagious disease, some one hundred and fifty books being lost yearly from these causes. Many of these are standard works and appear in the catalogue, and should be promptly replaced, as they are in con- stant demand.
The library is quite rich in magazines, but there are gaps in its files which it would be very desirable to have filled. It may be that some of the citizens have unbound numbers which they would be willing to give for this purpose, and the trustees invite any such to communicate with them. This suggestion also applies to the files of town reports, which the trustees would like to complete. The library is also fortunate in possessing an almost complete file of the "Wakefield Citizen and Banner,"
1
82
which is very frequently consulted. Gifts of the early numbers and of past years of the "Item" would be welcomed.
Ten bulletins have been issued during the year, as books have been added. These are posted in the library and reading room, and copies sent to the schools, and are distributed freely to patrons.
Work on the card catalogue has been continued, and it now numbers some 6,600 cards, the writing of which, as heretofore, has been the contribution of the librarian. A special apropria- tion was made for this catalogue and is not yet exhausted. Miss A. I. Appleton, who has supervised the work from the first, re- ports as follows : "In preparing the books to be entered on the card catalogue, which, by the way, is only one of the fifteen processes each book added to the library goes through, it has been a pleasure to find that the books were of a high class, with very few of the 'trashy' sort that are apt to find their way into town libraries. This shows that great care has been taken on the part of the committee in charge of the selection and purchase of the books, a service in behalf of the town for which its citizens cannot be too grateful. The card catalogue now records all books received since February, 1892, a period of ten years, and it is safe to assume that more than half of the books in ordinary circulation are included among these." It is the intention of the trustees to continue this work until the entire library is cata- logued.
The sub-committee having special charge of the reading room has held monthly meetings through the year and endeavored to further improve the condition of the room. Changes have been made in the list of periodicals as follows: The "National Maga- zine" and "New York Tribune" (weekly) have been dropped, and the "International Studio," "Delineator,', "Lippincott," "World's Work," "Photo-Miniature" and "Wakefield Daily Item" have been added. It is in contemplation to add a few Swedish and German journals for a time, as an experiment, to be continued if found desirable.
. A copy of the Boston Directory has been placed in the room, and has proved of service, also a copy of Thomas's Dictionary of Biography and Mythology. There have been numerous calls
. 83
from the public for the Century Dictionary, but the funds at command have not warranted procuring so expensive a work.
A box has been placed in the room for the reception of suggestions, and has proved its value. Users of the reading room are invited to make known their ideas for improvement of the service. Pencils and paper have also been furnished for the convenience of the public.
The books on the shelves in the reading room are not intended for circulation, and have been labeled, "Not to be taken from the reading room." Some instances of mutilation of papers have occurred, but, on the whole, the privileges of the room seem to be appreciated. Noisy disturbances, while not common, still occur to some extent, especially on evenings when the hall is let and the north entrance has to be used. It is hoped some arrangement can be made the coming year so the main entrance may be used exclusively. With an attendant in the room con- stantly, its usefulness would be at once greatly increased, and incidentally the noise and disturbance would cease. It is hoped this can be brought about shortly.
The following persons have made donations to the reading room during the year : Publishers of "Dumb Animals," H. M. Dolbeare, E. F. Poland, Leslie Clough, J. Frank White, Rev. A. P. Davis, Theodore Eaton, Miss Hattie M. King, A. H. Thayer, Mrs. Sarah Y. Morton, Joseph C. Payro.
As the usual vacation of the librarian was shortened by keep- ing the library open through the summer and as much extra work has been done by her, especially in connection with the card catalogue and the exhibition of the Educational Association, the trustees voted that an extra sum of $25 be paid her. This amount, however, Mrs. Shepard, as an expression of her interest in the library, has generously returned to the board, to be used in the purchase of such books as may be mutually agreed upon.
In consideration of the facts, that the cost of books has been increased from twelve to thirty-six per cent., that the receipts from the dog tax are smaller, and that, after paying necessary running expenses and providing for the repairing and renewing of books, so small a sum remains for the purchase of new books and for improvement and extension of the library's work, the
84
trustees recommend that the sum of $600 and the receipts from the dog tax be appropriated for the library. For the reading room they recommend an appropriation of $200.
