poles on Albion Street have been removed and the appearance of the street improved thereby.
Eventually all lighting and commercial service on Albion Street, North Avenue and Foster Street will be underground and it is anticipated that similar lighting and servicing will be extended to that part of Main Street where the conduit line has been laid.
At the North Avenue works much has been done to improve the prop- erty. A new roof has been put on the building formerly used as an engine room. This was the first new work on the roof for a number of years, patching with the by-products from the gas plant, which have been avail- able in the past, had kept the roof in fair condition for a number of years. These products being no longer available, the local roofer was called in and ordered to make a new top. The purchase of a paint spraying device, attached to the portable air compressor has made possible the painting of the whole set of buildings, in much less time, and shows a considerable saving in the amount of paint used on previous work of the same kind on the same buildings.
The coal shed which has been out of use for a number of years and an expense to maintain, is in progress of being demolished. The Boston and Maine Railroad has been notified that the town no longer maintains a railroad siding at the gas works.
The action of the Town Meeting of December 28th amended the Light Department's contract with the Heywood-Wakefield Company and by so doing, the Town received from that Company all rights held by them on the water course outlet to Crystal Lake.

Fire Alarm
January 2, 1932.
Municipal Light Commissioners,
Town of Wakefield, Massachusetts.
Gentlemen:
This very essential but little thought of means of protecting property and life, the automatic fire alarm system, has worked excellently all during the year.
No new boxes have been purchased this year. An additional box has been placed in Boyntonville district, at the corner of Spring Street . and Druid Hill Avenue.
For many years the Street Railway has supplied the town with a battery charging current for the fire alarm. Sometime in October, after due notice, the current on all the street railway lines was stopped and this free service discontinued.
In anticipation of this, a motor generator set, of sufficient capacity, was purchased and installed at the Substation building on Wakefield Avenue, together with the accessories for charging the battery; by means of relays, this is semi-automatic in operation. There is another motor generator set at the Central Fire Station, which is cut into the line for a standby unit, so that this department is well taken care of.
Respectfully submitted,
SAMUEL H. BROOKS,
Superintendent of Fire Alarm.

REPORT OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES
BERTHA A. ROUND
Mrs. Bertha A. Round became a member of the Board of Trustees of The Lucius Beebe Memorial Library in 1926.
From the first, her great interest in library problems and library service was apparent to all the members of the Board.
Believing that her greatest interest would lie in the work of the Greenwood Branch and that of the Children's Room, she was appointed to those committees. To their special problems she brought the wide experience of her public work as well as the resources of her trained mind. The result was a very practical help.
It is not possible to estimate her services as a Trustee. She was generous in the use of her time and her energy. Her great personal charm made her contacts with both the staff and her fellow trustees a constant pleasure.
132
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
The Trustees of The Lucius Beebe Memorial Library herewith submit the seventy-sixth annual report for the year 1931.
It is again the privilege of the Trustees to report a year of progress. The library has had more borrowers and has had more books in circulation than ever before. Some of the growth comes as a natural development but in common with other public libraries, we have been faced with an unusual demand for books as a result of the prevailing unemployment. Some have taken advantage of the spare time afforded to fit themselves for new positions. Others have used the library to make themselves more proficient in what they were already doing. Some have read because there was little else to do, and others have frankly admitted that they were seeking diversion from worry. Whatever the cause, the situation has brought problems which it has been the duty and pleasure of the staff and the Trustees to solve.
Gifts of books, magazines and flowers have shown the good will of many friends. The Mothers' Club again has given ten dollars ($10) to be spent for books of interest to mothers. The same generous help as in previous years has been continued by Mr. Harris M. Dolbeare and Mr. Gardner E. Campbell of the Daily Item, a help which is appreciated by the public as well as the Trustees. To all of these friends the Trustees wish to extend their thanks.
A bronze tablet in commemoration of the purchase of the library site has been placed in the entrance hall on Avon Street. Mr. Harris M. Dol- beare of the Library Site Committee, and Dr. Richard Dutton and Mr. Arthur Evans of the Trustees, acted as a special committee and the Library Site Committee gave the tablet.
More exhibitions have been arranged than in previous years and the public has shown great interest in them all.
On November 5, the Trustees were shocked and saddened by the sudden death of Mrs. Bertha A. Round. She had attended the regular meeting on November 2, apparently in the best of health. The following appreciation of Mrs. Round was sent by the Trustees to her family, to the Daily Item, and was spread upon the records.
The Trustees of The Lucius Beebe Memorial Library wish to express to the family and friends of Mrs. Bertha A. Round their sincere appreciation of her services as a member of the Board.
At once upon her appointment in 1926, it was evident that her interest in library problems was unusually keen. Among her other duties as a member of the Board, she served on the Greenwood Branch Committee and on the Children's Room Committee and in each case her work was never perfunctory. She brought to it the best of her trained mind.
The loss of her practical and unselfish interest on be- half of the patrons of the library is greatly to be regretted.
133
REPORT OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES
The loyal co-operation of every member of the staff has been a source of satisfaction to the Trustees throughout the year. More borrowers have asked for special help than ever before and the staff has shown a ready spirit of helpfulness which is sincerely appreciated by the Trustees.
The circulation for the year 1931 is as follows:
Main Library
Adult
114,203
Juvenile
48,118
162,321
Greenwood Branch
Adult
29,448
Juvenile
20,699
50,147
School
High
899
Deposits
7,216
8,115
220,583
This is a gain of 22,557 or 11.4% and is a circulation of over 13.7 books per capita at 16,000 population. There have been 1023 new borrowers.
In April, 1923, the library was established in the new building and that year the circulation was 106,244. With these figures in mind it is easily seen that the circulation has more than doubled in the seven years. All this increase means more work to be accomplished, more wear and tear on books and furnishings (over 10,000 books were mended this year) and necessitates more careful planning than ever before. The Trustees, how- ever, no matter how difficult the task may be, are glad to co-operate with the Finance Committee in their efforts to reduce expenditures and for the year 1932 they recommend an appropriation of $20,250.
FLORENCE L. BEAN, Secretary.

TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
To the Trustees of The Lucius Beebe Memorial Library:
THE
LIBRARY'S
PART
The report for the year 1931 is a record of the public library as a social factor in the community. Our reasonable and creditable growth for the past two years has averaged 6% per annum; this year it was over 11%. In such a year of world-wide depres- sion comes the test of the importance of library serv- ice to the individuals who make up the community. It is to be noted that 50% of the population of Wakefield are registered borrowers of the library, and that in addition, many school children who use the books on deposit are not registered at the library.
IN
The enumeration of the number of books issued, borrowers registered, books purchased and prepared for the shelves, will be found in the tables accompany- ing this report. It is not enough that the library has 50,000 books, 60,000 pictures and nearly 4,000 pam- phlets for the use of the people of Wakefield. It is important that the public library material be of active service today, even as, 14 years ago in war times, books were needed to support public morale and much thought and money at that time were spent on them.
FOR
During the year, 1938 books were sent to the class- rooms of the grammar schools. Here the children developed reading habits and became familiar with books. Over 7,000 books were read in this way.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND
More frequently deposits were sent to the High School library to supplement their own material on the various subjects being studied.
CHILDREN
Children in grades five, six, seven and eight over the town, came to the library this year for instruction in how to find material here, or in any library.
AND
Providing books and supplementary reading ma- terial for the school children, the college students and the many adults who are taking extension or graduate courses, is a part of the regular reference work of the library and was constantly being done.
ADULTS
Not only our own resources have been used in this connection, but an inter-library loan arrangement has provided our patrons with books which we have borrowed from the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, Harvard University, Boston University, Essex County Agricultural College, Boston Medical Library, General Electric Company of Lynn, as well as the public libraries in and around Boston and the State Division of Public Libraries. The latter has also
1931

REPORT OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES
INCLUDING
EXHIBITS
AND
LECTURE HALL
PRIVILEGES
PUBLICITY
USED
furnished us with collections of books in the Swedish, Italian and Polish languages. To all of these sources we are especially grateful.
The picture collection containing material on over fifty subjects has been found useful not only to the school children but also to adults interested in the fine arts, public speaking, arts and crafts, as well as in their personal problems needing illustrations.
The part which art exhibits play in education as well as in enjoyment may defy analysis, but its im- portance is acknowledged. Each year the library has had an increasing number of exhibits. In this report the full list for 1931 has been tabulated. It includes those in the balcony, lecture hall, children's room in the main library and all of the projects as well as picture displays at the Greenwood Branch Library. The patrons of the latter consider these projects an especially valuable feature of that library's work; and they have been outstanding in effectiveness.
Many of the exhibits in the children's room were loans from the Children's Museum of Cambridge and the Junior Red Cross in Boston. The work of the individual artists mentioned in the table was dis- played in the Lecture Hall,-Mrs. Walter Cannon and daughters of Cambridge, Miss Lucia Buckle of Wakefield, Miss Belle Lamprey of Wyoming and Mr. Joseph Fanck of Wakefield. Mr. Eric Kelly, Professor of Journalism at Dartmouth College, lent the library a most interesting Polish exhibit in November; and in October, Miss Bess David of Wakefield displayed her valuable collection of air mail stamps in the balcony.
Not only for exhibits has the lecture hall been used; the Board meetings of the Kosmos Club, a series of lectures under the auspices of the American Home Committee of that Club, meetings of the Arts and Crafts Society, the Garden Club and the Historical Society have been held there. From the children's department a throng of children filled the hall for the story hour on Friday of Book Week in November.
The weekly column which the Wakefield Daily Item gives us has been especially valuable in furnish- ing book suggestions and notices of recent accessions to our resources. We are glad to express our appre- ciation of this help at this time.
Check book lists of new books the Library issued each month; the constant decrease in the supply of these lists testifies to their popularity.
136
TOWN OF WAKEFIELD
During the year special lists were published on Child Welfare ("Our children)), Arts and Crafts, and Music. Suggestive lists were pasted in the front of many popular books.
At Greenwood, Miss Wilson has given two talks on books before a section of the Community Church Society and a Greenwood club.
After eight years of service, it was necessary this year to paint the adult room, the main lobby of the library. The library patrons were most gracious in adjusting to the inconveniences of having only the children's room at their disposal during that last week in June.
MAINTENANCE
AND To provide room for the library's collection of Town Histories of Massachusetts, shelves have been IMPROVEMENTS built in one of the front rooms. The published list of these Town Histories, issued in 1930, has been re- quested by libraries and historical associations in many of the states over the country.
The two lower shelves in the sections of the steel book stacks on the first floor have been replaced with sloping shelves, enabling the public to read the titles of the books with much greater ease.
At the Greenwood Branch Library, new shelves have been built to provide an additional alcove and more book room. Celotex covering the blackboard in the reading room makes an excellent background for pic- ture displays.
The conference of the American Library Asso- ciation was held this year at New Haven, in June. Six members of the staff including the librarian attended some of the meetings.
Two meetings of the North of Boston Group of Libraries (which includes eight neighboring libraries and Wakefield) were held this year at Malden and Medford. Various members attended and contributed to these meetings.
The Massachusetts Library Club held its summer meeting at Vineyard Haven in September. Miss Wil- son was a member of the committee displaying various library methods for advertising books; her portion of the exhibit at the meeting was excellent. The librarian also attended this meeting.
Another group of libraries on the other side of Boston, form the Charles River Library Club. At its November meeting in Newton, the librarian was a member of the players who were asked to repeat a

REPORT OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES
THE STAFF
brief skit about library work, first given at Vineyard Haven last September.
A satisfactory contact on the part of the library with the public is an important factor in effective library service. The realization of its importance by the members of this library staff and their co-opera- tive and helpful spirit have played a major part in the accomplishments of the library during the year.
My own realization of the constant interest, thoughtful support and valuable consideration of library matters on the part of the Trustees, I men- tion with much appreciation.
