AUDITOR'S REPORT.
The accounts of the Town Treasurer for the year 1910 have been examined by me and found to be correct. Receipts have been credited and payments charged to the proper account, and vouchers shown for the payments. The cash balance Dec. 31, 1910, was $31,449.21.
The accounts of the Collector of Taxes were also verified, and uncollected taxes for years 1908 and 1909 were checked and found to be correct.
The debt of the Town at the close of the year was $350,753.08, making a net decrease for the year of $5,173.32.
All trust funds are deposited in the savings banks, with the exception of the Murdock, Warren and Morton, amounting to $3,730.00, which are included in the Town debt given above.

We would recommend an appropriation for the year 1911 of $2,600.00, and that the assessors be paid a salary and that they be in attendance all the year, as there are inquiries nearly every day; and furthermore the tax commissioner objects to the valuation books leaving the assessor's office, which would necessarily require the office to be kept open every day.

REPORT OF OVERSEERS OF THE POOR
Annual report of the Overseers of the Poor for the year ending Dec. 31, 1910.
The business of this department runs in about the same channel from year to year with its almost constant list of those incapacitated by sickness, old age or other cause that throws them into the ranks of those that burden the com- munity, and who must be carried through the rest of their lives either by their relatives and friends, or the Town, and perhaps by all three, varied only by the dropping out of those cases which are able financially to stand on their feet without further assistance, and by the application of the later unfor- tunate who finds it necessary to appeal to the Town for help.
However, it seems to us, without giving the subject the com- parative study that would give the statement a place as a statistical fact, that taking into consideration the increase of our population in the last seven years-a gain approximately of 1,783 people, the number of persons aided has not in- creased in proportion, certainly our expenditures this year are lower than last year's, and last year's were lower than any year since 1902. But we are inclined to think this is purely a local condition, for Massachusetts as a whole has her share of paupers, as the Pauper Abstract, published by the State Board of Charity, for the year 1909, gives 26.01 paupers per 1,000 of population, based on the 1905 census. Perhaps for the pur- pose of comparison the published report-newspaper-for Eng- land and Wales, with something like eleven times the popula- tion of Massachusetts, may prove interesting; this was given as 24.4 paupers per 1,000 of the population in 1905.

One thing appears quite certain with the care that the State assumes and compels for the individual, whether insane, epi- leptic, consumptive or what not, there is bound to be a con- stantly increasing sum of money necessary to pay the bills, and all who contribute must bear a little larger share of the run- ning expenses in the shape of taxes, either direct or indirect. The State tax will be a little larger than ever before, and if our local poor department expenditures do not grow quite in proportion to population it will be found that the Board of Health spends more than enough on its contagious and infec- tious disease cases to offset any saving in our department, the needy cases coming under the aforementioned headings, hav- ing been removed from the care of the Overseers of the Poor, excepting under certain circumstances, and placed in charge of the Board of Health.
This care of the individual is apparently all right and a move in the direction of humanity to the man and a credit to society, but we must not permit this protection to under- mine the independence of character that should be a part of every man, and every family, to the extent that prevents pub- lic aid except in the direst extremity.
Our Almshouse still maintains its standard as a cleanly and well kept institution, under the care of Russell L. Dickson and wife, as warden and matron, respectively. A somewhat smaller number of inmates has obtained-17, against 24 for the preceding year, with the cost of keeping somewhat increased, partially accounted for by the purchase of fuel and other sup- plies late in the year, and the appearance of the expenditure in this year's accounts instead of next. In the matter of re- pairs, aside from the somewhat numerous small things that arise, we have had all upper story rooms of the house reno- vated, ceilings whitened, walls painted and woodwork of the rooms and corridors varnished-cost $317.02.
To those people who have contributed to the happiness of the inmates during the past year, either by visits or the fur- nishing of reading matter, we wish to express our thanks.
