Henry H. Rogers Trust Fund. High School Fund.
In 1918 one of the most important matters and benefits the town has received was the allowance to the town from the heirs and children of the late Henry H. Rogers, the town's greatest benefactor, who gave the town our High School, the sum of Four Hundred and Seventy-nine Thousand (479,000) dollars, the interest from which will aggregate twenty-five thousand (25,000) dollars annually for the support of the High School.
The said interest is forwarded to the Town Treasurer, by the Farmers Loan and Trust Co., of New York, who have charge of the Trust Fund, the accounts to be kept separate from all other town accounts by the Town Treas- urer, and all accounts before payment approved by School Committee and the Board of Selectmen.

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
The first meeting of the Board of Selectmen and Over- seers of the Poor was held February 4, 1919, and organ- ized with the choice of John I. Bryant as chairman, and Thomas W. Whitfield as clerk. Miss Lillian H. Simas was chosen as secretary of the Board of Overseers of the Poor.
At a Special Town Meeting held November 12, 1919, it was voted to approve the action of the Selectmen in selling a part of the old Town Farm to Mina Jacobs, for the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500). It was also voted to in- struct the Selectmen to sign deeds of conveyance for the Town of the so-called Town Farm on the east side of North Main Street, and the tract of land known as Spooner's Point on the north side of the Howland Road, near the Acushnet River.
On January -, 1920, the Selectmen sold the so-called Spooner's Point, five acres more or less, to the Fairhaven Mills Corporation for a mill site, for the sum of Five Thou- sand Dollars ($5,000), which was placed to the credit of the Incidental Account.
The Selectmen and Overseers of the Poor most ear- nestly recommend that a new barn be built at the Town Farm for a sum not to exceed Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000). The old barn at this institution is in a delapi- dated condition and it is impossible to take care of the stock at farm in a proper way unless we have a new barn.
