REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE
In making up the report of the Welfare Board for the year just ending, that of 1933, we instinctive- ly turn to the financial statement for the year, appearing in the report of the Town Accountant. We find the appropriation for the Department of Public Welfare, not including Old Age Assistance, was $90,000, with an overdraft of nearly $40,000, making a total relief expense outside of the Old Age Assistance of nearly $130,000. Now in comparing this 1933 expense with the same relief expense of the previous year, that of 1932, we find this ex- traordinarily trying year, just past, shows an in- creased expense of nearly $23,000. This increase reflects one of the Town's most difficult problems, if not its greatest.
INFIRMARY
This department continues under the able man- agement of Mr. and Mrs. Russell D. Dickson, su- perintendent and matron. While the number has decreased by one, the physical condition of many of the inmates necessitates much extra care. For, today, there is hardly a one of them who is able to do any work about the place. The usual garden has been carried on that the inmates may have fresh vegetables for the table. And the income from the Julia P. Robinson fund has been used for their ben- efit.

MOTHERS WITH DEPENDENTS
Assistance given in this department shows a de- crease from five families to three, two of the cases now being self-supporting. The three families re- ceiving aid represent eight persons. As usually stated, this department as well as Old Age Assistance, is under the supervision of the State Public Welfare, in conjunction with the local board; one-third of the expense is reinbursed to the town by the State.
OLD AGE ASSISTANCE
Our last year town report contained the follow- ing lines, which best describe the principles of this assistance. "Again we call your attention to the fact that the law distinctly states 'this is not a pension ; but public assistance given to deserving cit- izens in need of relief and support, seventy years of age and older. And that it does not relieve the children from supporting their parents if they are able to do so.' This assistance is a great help to the aged. It relieves them of the mental worries and material cares which cause so much havoc among the old. And by allowing them to spend their de- clining days among their friends in peace and com- fort we lengthen the span of their life among us."

GENERAL WELFARE OR OUTSIDE AID
The peak of our temporary assistance came in April, when we were aiding 439 families. At that same time assistance was being given five mothers with dependents and eighty-four old age assistance cases. The combined assistance being given in the above referred to cases represented over two thou- sand persons.
During this year, as well as the year previous, we have given considerable time and effort in placing the able-bodied, seeking temporary assistance, on some town departmental work, that they may return to our town by their labors, a value in exchange for the food and other necessities they received. We feel that in most cases this privilege has been great- ly appreciated by the recipients and that to a great extent this total cost of temporary assistance cannot be rightfully called an expense.
During the latter part of November this depart- ment was relieved, in a great measure, by transfer- ring most of their welfare labor, as it was called, to Civil Works Administration projects, which reduced the cost of assisting a large number of the able- bodied on our welfare list. The Civil Works Admin- istration, it is believed, has greatly helped others of our town who were not on our lists, giving them a means of supporting themselves and families with- out seeking assistance from this department.
Through this department the Surplus Federal Emergency Relief commodities were distributed, and this, too, has been a slight factor in reducing our
-110-
relief costs, although in most cases where the dis- tribution was made it meant an additional assistance to the party receiving it. For some of these com- modities this department was the distribution centre of twenty Cape towns.
In view of the fact that our total expense for the last year has been $132,800.99 for the Infirmary, Outside Aid and Mothers with Dependents, and $26,341.32 for Old Age Assistance, we recommend the following appropriations.
For Infirmary, Outside Aid and Moth- . 1 ers with Dependents, $130,000.00
For Old Age Assistance, 25,000.00
WILLIAM T. ELDRIDGE, Chairman.
GEORGE L. GOODING, JAMES RAE.
On January 28, 1934, (before the above report went to print), the Board of Public Welfare suf- fered a great loss by the death of their secretary, Asa H. Burgess. Each member of the board realizes the great service Mr. Burgess was rendering to the town through this department and each deeply regrets his absence.

PLYMOUTH PUBLIC LIBRARY CORPORATION
Report of the Directors for the year 1933
As the Librarian's report is given in such detail it seems unnecessary that any additional report be ren- dered.
Would say, however, that while there has been a further increase in circulation, our Library is main- tained with efficiency as to service, at a less expense than the majority of towns comparable with Plym- outh. The Directors feel that this standard can be maintained for the coming year on the same income.
We, therefore, request the same appropriation as last year, $8,850.00.
For the Directors, F. D. BARTLETT, President.

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN
To the Directors of the Plymouth Public Library :
The annual report of the Library is herewith pre- sented :
In the presentation of this report it is the Librarian's wish to condense much of the text and not incor- porate that part which appears in the statistical form recommended by the American Library Association, at the close of the report. While this form tends to make a seemingly briefer account, it in no sense in- dicates a lessening of activities, or signifies any omissions in rendering the record of the year's ser- vice. A careful study of the statistics is urged.
The spectacular gain in the circulation of 1932, the largest in the history of the Library, might well have been considered the peak, yet we have exceeded last year's circulation, with a total of 161,555, and made a slight gain of 2,676. The adult department, naturally most affected by present economic condi- tions, actually gained 5,135, but losses in deposit cir- culation decreased the total gain.
Our reference department has received extra con- sideration in its share of the book budget this year, and has reached a high standard, making it possible adequately to assist students in finding supplementary school material. During the next few years it will be possible to apply book funds largely to technical and books for general reading.
The instruction to eighth grade pupils of the Jun- ior High School is to begin later this year owing to extra activities in the school program. The same method of instruction successfully carried out last
-113-
year will be continued. The self reliance and applica- tion of the student, especially in his use of reference works is a pleasing result of this work. Fewer awards of State Honor Certificates have been made this year. Many teachers have preferred book de- posits to include books requested by the children, and those supplementing subjects taught in their classes, rather than be limited to the titles included in the State lists of required reading for certificates. The Librarian and the Children's Librarian are in accord with this preference.
Visits were made to all classes of the Grade Schools before Book Week, and the significance of the Book Week slogan "Growing up with Books" explained. Response to the invitation to attend Story Hour and the Book Exhibit was very gratifying. Ninety Ju- venile books were added at this time and made an at- tractive display.
The Junior Reading Club conducted during the summer school vacation interested sixty boys and girls during a season when Plymouth's out-of-door attrac- tions tend to draw our young readers away. Since contact lost at this time is sometimes difficult to regain, it seems wise to retain interest with some such special feature.
Our picture collections comprising the Miss Mary Bartlett gift, and the Arts and Crafts Committee gift, a large and unusually fine collection ; do not include many subjects needed by the schools for exhibits and supplementary instruction material. The Library staff during a busy summer has found time to mount, arrange and file by subjects, 1600 pictures. Our cir- culation of 3,488 prints borrowed largely from this collection justifies the time and expense devoted to it.
The Long Pond deposit continues under the cap- able supervision of Mrs. W. E. Randall. Satisfactory reports from school deposits are evidence of their far-reaching results. Woman's Club members form-
-114-
ing Literature Groups have availed themselves of special collections. Girl Scouts and Summer Camps borrow deposits of books related to Scout and Camp study. One hundred and fifty worn books, and used magazines were sent to the Civilian Conservation Camps. Several of the Camp members have reg- istered at the Library.
Realizing that the Directors and the Librarian are in agreement that the Library should at this time do its share in reducing town expenditures, we shall save suggestions for expansion and improvement un- til a future time. That we are able to maintain the Library's service at its present level we believe is un- derstood and appreciated by our public. To the Gar- den Club for its generous gifts of flowers during the summer; to Miss Margaret Kyle for Story Telling ; to the many donors of books; to the State Library Commission and neighboring libraries for the lending of books; and to the local Press for Library publicity ; we extend our sincere thanks.
In closing I wish to express my appreciation to the Staff whose loyalty and enthusiasm have contributed so largely to the success of the year. To you, the Di- rectors, I express sincere gratitude for your consid- eration and cooperation in the administration of Library affairs.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLOTTE HASKINS,
Librarian.

REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS
To The Honorable Board of Selectmen :-
We respectfully submit the following report for the year ending December 31, 1933.
BEACH PARK
During the winter season very heavy storms un- dermined the various cement steps, carried away the piazza of the bath-house and caused damage to the amount of $1,500.00. New cement work was erected in the front of the bath-house and sea walls to com- bat the heavy seas.
At the bath-house 3,764 lockers were rented during the bathing season. Receipts $640.25.
STEPHENS FIELD
Bangs Park, at the southern entrance was beauti- fied by additional trees and shrubbery.
The bathing beach was cleaned and the shore sanded, making a longer space for the small children to play and enjoy the beach.
Bath-house receipts, $36.00.
BREWSTER GARDEN
The walks throughout the garden were built up and trimmed, having been in a sunken condition.
The material used in repairing the walk and relin- ing the brook included 30 yards black loam, 21 yards wood loam, 10 loads of sod, 4 loads of stone, and twelve loads of screen gravel. The gardens and shrubs appear to be in excellent condition.
-120-
SOUTH STREET PLAYGROUNDS
The slides, swings and playground equipment was completely renovated and installed about the field for the children's enjoyment.
BURTON PARK
A new fence was erected adjoining the Brockton and Plymouth Street Railway property. The usual care was given the grounds and trees.
BATES PARK
The shrubs and grounds received our attention. Gravel was placed on the walks.
NELSON STREET PLAYGROUNDS
The northerly section which had previously been filled with sand and gravel, was covered with 330 yards of loam. Grass seed was sown on the area. Bath-house receipts, $12.25.
MUNICIPAL CAMP
The camp was open from the first of June until the 15th of September. The number of campers was somewhat smaller than in previous season, due to general business conditions. More travelling student- bodies enjoyed the facilities than in other years, and the camp was placed on the itinerary of nearly all travelling colleges for the 1934 season.
Amount received from camping fees $483.10.
DEPOT PARK
The usual care was given the grounds and shrubs.
-121-
VETERANS' FIELD
This playground has the largest attendance of any in Plymouth. The athletic apparatus and playground equipment should be increased to give all the chil- dren a chance to enjoy it.
· A football gridiron was layed out in the fall. Since the game has become so popular, the demand for the use of Stephens Field was too large to satisfy all teams. Veterans Field was used by the Plymouth Athletic Club as their playing field on Sundays.
TRAINING GREEN
The grass and walks were trimmed and the cus- tomary care was given.
MORTON PARK
Morton Park is in better condition than at any time in the past twenty-five years. All the roads have been gravelled, the paths trimmed and cut, all under- brush cleaned and burned and the park kept in its natural state.
Over six hundred pine trees were set out during the year, making a total of 3,000 planted during the past three years.
The moth infested trees in the swamps near Bil- lington Sea, were removed and all trees which had received their growth and were rotting away, were taken down by welfare workers under the super- vision of the Park Superintendent. New trees are growing in their places. The work of fighting the gypsy moth was continued. Bath-house receipts, $71.85.
INDIAN LANDS
An electric power line was extended to the camp- ing grounds from the main highway at Raymond's
-122-
Corner. Electric lights were installed and a water system with electric pumps connected, for the con- venience of the campers. The popularity of this camp is reaching our expectations as shown by the cash receipts for the second year, which are nearly double the first. Receipts from auto fees, $257.15.
