The terrific gale and storm of Jan. 13th did considerable damage to the shore at Beach Park and also the Public Bath House, sweeping it from its foundation and tearing it to pieces in some places, making it necessary to move the building back on new foundations, build a new piazza, etc., at an expense of about $300, as near as we can estimate.
The money spent for the enlargement of the Bath House last
-184-
year was a very great improvement and was much appreciated by the inhabitants of Plymouth and also by the summer resi- dents who live in that part of the town. It seems to your Park Commissioners that the town of Plymouth could spend a little money to advantage by building a breakwater along the beach at this point to protect this property, its present situation being at the mercy of wind and tides without any obstruction whatever.
We respectfully recommend the sum of $300, to be used for repairs at Beach Park Bath House.
We also recommend that the sum of $200 be appropriated for the superintendence and maintenance of Beach Park Bath House for the ensuing year.
We also recommend that the sum of $150 be appropriated for the superintendence and maintenance of Nelson Street Bath House, for the ensuing year.
We ask for an appropriation of $1500 for parks, $300 for re- pairs on Bath House at Beach Park, $200 for care and main- tenance of Beach Park Bath House, $150 for care and main- tenance of Nelson Street Bath House, $200 for power sprayer for use in the Park Department, and $200 for Training Green.

A large amount of trimming has been done, and dead limbs removed; also a number of decayed trees cut down in various sections of the town. Fifty new trees, of the maple and linden varieties, have been, set out in different localities, and with one exception they are doing well.
Notwithstanding most of the trees, especially the smaller ones, have been protected as far as possible by wire guards, I have had considerable trouble, resulting with serious damages in some cases, where horses have gnawed and even stripped off portions
-192-
of the bark. I have endeavored to prevent this by posting notices of warning, and have called the attention of the police and others to report any such violation of the same that might. come under their observation, but thus far have had no war- rant for a conviction. I trust that all owners and drivers of horses will be more careful in regard to this matter, as often- times a tree may be permanently damaged or killed.
I find that the older trees require more attention every year on account of the number of dead limbs and other gradual signs of decay. Some of the old trees are dead and will have to be removed.
As it was necessary to overdraw my appropriation, and in consideration of the outlook for the coming year, I would re- spectfully recommend that the sum of $1,200.00 be appropri- ated for the ensuing year.
C. S. MIXTER,
Tree Warden.

REPORT OF FOREST WARDEN
Plymouth, Mass., Dec. 31, 1914.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-
I submit the following report as Forest Warden :
Since May 1st, at which time I assumed charge of the de- partment, 58 fires have been reported. A large part of them were in the vicinity of No. Triangle Pond and the Plympton Road, and many would appear to have been of incendiary ori- gin. Eleven were R. R. fires. Nearly all occurred previous to July 1st, only 3 being reported after that date.
The fire truck being in poor condition, its use was abandoned early in the season. It is the opinion of this department that more satisfactory results are obtained with horses at fires not far from the center of the town. Many are in localities not possible to get near with a motor truck, but could get right on the fire line with horses. For fires at a distance the truck could be used to good advantage, if in running order. The sub- ject of forestry is one of increasing importance and is receiving more attention every year. I recommend an appropriation of $3,000.00 for this department.
Respectfully, IRA C. WARD, Forest Warden.

REPORT OF FISH COMMITTEE
REPORT OF THE FISH COMMITTEE OF THE TOWN OF PLYMOUTH FOR THE YEAR 1914
There has been no activity on the part of the Fish Committee this year in stocking the ponds of the town. The injunction issued to Ida Douglass against all parties taking fish from Ship Pond is still in force, and the committee has been unable to purchase white perch elsewhere.
It has come to the attention of the committee that the Fish and Game Commission of Massachusetts are now able to supply fingerling black bass in limited numbers, and the committee is to make application for some.
It has also come to the attention of the committee that the Fish and Game Commission has been experimenting with land lock salmon, with good results, and the committee believes that it is possible to use any to advantage in any of our waters, and will attempt to get some.
There has been no money expended by the committee during the past year.
We recommend that the usual appropriation of Three Hun- dred Dollars be made for the use of the committee if needed.

Committee on Inland Fisheries.

HERRING FISHERIES
AGAWAM AND HALF WAY POND HERRING FISHERIES
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-
We herewith submit the following report :-
The stream was sold in April. 1914, for a term of five years, at $627.50 per year to each town. The average for the last 17 years has been $244.00 per year. The committee thought it advisable to change the term of years and through the efforts of Representatives Churchill and Bodfish, an act was passed by the Legislature authorizing the sale of the stream for a term of five years.
Respectfully submitted, ALFRED HOLMES, Chairman. FRANK HARLOW, ARTHUR L. MORSE,

HARBOR MASTER'S REPORT
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-
The dredging in the harbor has made some trouble for ves- 'vels coming in and going out, but the captain of the dredge has been very accommodating, and has kept a clear way as much as possible. There have been several obstructions to navigation removed during the summer.
The December and January gales have done a great deal of damage to Pilgrim Wharf, and the wharf will require very ex- tensive repairs, and probably the advice of an expert to know what to do.
Respectfully submitted,
ALFRED HOLMES, Harbor Master.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR OF SHORES
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :--
There has been an increase of 1,000 or more buckets of clams dug over 1913. The shores abound in small clams and at the present time it looks as though they would be appreciated by the men out of work. The shores and flats are well seeded.
Respectfully submitted,
ALFRED HOLMES, Supervisor.
