February 14, 1928


Dr. Walter D. Shurtleff,


Health Officer,


Plymouth, Massachusetts.


My dear Dr. Shurtleff :


I am pleased at this time to write you of some of the progressive activities in which the Plymouth Board of Health has taken the initiative.


I am informed that Plymouth was the first town to of- ficially adopt and subsequently enforce the Minimum Rules and Regulations for the Control of Communicable Diseases. Also I am aware of the fact that you have had, for several years, milk regulations making it necessary for milk sold in Plymouth to be either pasteurized or from tuberculin tested herds. Plymouth is one of the few towns of its size to have been recorded in favor of this very important health measure.


At the present time steps have been taken, I believe, to initiate some diphtheria prevention procedures in Plym- outh in conjunction with the School Department. I can- not recommend too highly this sort of thing as a public health activity of extreme importance. You may feel certain that this Department is ready and willing at all times to aid and advise you in the furtherance of this and other public health work in your town.


Yours truly, GEORGE H. BIGELOW, M. D., Commissioner of Public Health


February 9, 1928


To the Selectmen and Voters of


Plymouth, Mass.


Greetings :


We ask for just enough space in your Town Report to let the people in Plymouth know that we fully appreciate


-154-


the great help your Board of Health and its Clinic, "and particularly the personal supervision by Dr. Shurtleff and the nurses," has been, and is to those unfortunates to whom it has been a very personal help in their time of need, physically, by medical treatment and mentally by suggestions, and human sympathy. We sincerely hope you will continue your good work, and may you in results reap one hundred fold is the sincere wish of


CHARLES W. EATON, GEORGE E. BELKNAP, Board of Health, Duxbury, Mass.


November 28, 1927


Eoard of Health,


Plymouth, Mass.


Attention : Herbert S. Maxwell, Chairman Gentlemen :


Enclosed you will please find my check for $2.35 in payment of your bill as rendered.


I take this opportunity to extend to you my expression of sincere appreciation for your very successful efforts in behalf of my son and the courtesies extended both to my son and myself.


While I know you look upon acts like that to which I refer as the performance of your duty; I feel that the Town of Plymouth is to be congratulated in having for the Chairman of their Board of Health a gentleman of determination and ability who has also the fine feelings and sympathy you displayed.


Respectfully yours,


HAROLD A. PHEENY.

Plymouth, Mass. Sept. 9, 1927


Mr. H. S. Maxwell, Chairman


Board of Health


Plymouth, Mass.


Dear Mr. Maxwell:


At your suggestion, I am making a formal request to the Board of Health to provide for additional dental ser- vice for the ensuing year.


I would recommend that Dr. Dyer and Dr. Donovan be employed at once sufficient mornings so that all the chil- dren in grades 1-6 inclusive, may be examined. This will be followed by the usual Dental Clinic work in grades 1-3. The increased cost of the department would be between $100.00 to $150.00.


Please let me know at once the decision of the depart- ment so that the work may begin immediately.


Thanking you for your splendid co-operation in the past, and hoping that we may all work together for the best interests of the children, I am


Yours sincerely,


ANSON B. HANDY, Supt. of Schools.

SIXTEENTH


ANNUAL REPORT


OF THE


TOWN ACCOUNTANT


OF THE


Town of Plymouth


For the Year Ending December 31st

-161-


SIXTEENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTANT


For the year ending December 31, 1927


Plymouth, Mass., February 25, 1928.


To the Board of Selectmen,


Town of Plymouth.


Gentlemen :


I submit herewith a report of the financial transactions of the Town for the year ending December 31, 1927, ar- ranged in the same general order as in past years.


Schedule A. shows all receipts and payments for the year from Jan. 1, to Dec. 31, classified in accordance with requirements of the Division of Accounts of the State.


Schedule B. is a detailed account of the several ap- propriations, showing the amounts appropriated at Town Meetings, any additions to same, payments made, balance remaining or transferred to surplus.


Schedule C. is a statement of Estimated Receipts.


The charges are amounts used by the Assessors in making the 1927 tax rate. The credits show amounts actually received from the respective sources.


Schedule D. The Revenue Account for the year.


Schedule E. A list of the unexpended appropriation balances transferred to surplus (Excess and Deficiency ) .


Schedule F. Balance Sheet, January 1, 1928, of all ledger accounts.


Schedule G. Summary of the Outstanding Indebted- ness (bonds) showing debt at the beginning of the year, amounts paid, and principal and interest requirements for 1928.


Schedule H. Detailed statement of bonded indebted- ness, giving the particulars of each bond issue.


Plymouth Eleven


-162-


Schedule I. List of all Trust Funds not including the January, 1928, dividends.


The amount appropriated by the Town in aid of the Plymouth Public Library has been handled in the same manner as any town department during the last year. This change was ordered by the State Examiners follow- ing the audit made by them in the fall of 1926.


Soldiers' Benefits have also been paid from an appro- priation made at the annual town meeting and not car- ried as overdrafts to be made up.


No department reported unpaid bills at the close of the year. Through an error, however, the Health Depart- ment was allowed to pay bills in excess of the appropri- ation to the amount of $594.34. This amount will have to be raised and appropriated in 1928.


The condition of the Town financially is excellent. Taxes and water rates are well paid in; the amount of uncollected being a small percent of the total levy.


The balance to the credit of Excess and Deficiency has been very materially increased through the year's trans- actions, and is larger than there is need to carry. I would suggest that $25,000 a year be used to reduce the tax levy until the balance is reduced to $50,000.


Respectfully submitted,


ELMER R. HARLOW,


Town Accountant.
