REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS. 1919
To the Board of Selectmen:
In submitting the following report your Commissioners beg to state that we have made quite a few improve- ments in laying out a portion of the new grounds and have sold a number of lots in this section and have the fence around this new land as well as part of the old near- ly completed and we have purchased a machine for mak- ing and numbering cement markers for lots and single graves besides general maintenance.
For the ensuing year we would recommend complet- ing the fence continuing our work laying out the new part of cemetery besides our regular work.
In consideration of this work we would recommend an appropriation of $800. and the funds received from the sale of lots.

REPORT OF ENGINEERS
Record of Fires for the Year 1919
January 19. Alarm for fire at Geo. Mills, Miller St. Two Story hen house. Loss $400.
February 12. Alarm at 12 a. m. Grass fire at Peder- zinnis.
June 13. Alarm for fire at barn owned by Wm. Ryan, Adams St. Damage small.
June 16. Alarm for wood fire back of Longacre Farm. Two small buildings burned and about 100 acres of second growth wood and sprout and swamp.
August 26. Alarm for house owned by Levi Taylor at Medfield Junction. Damage $4500.
October 15. Alarm for chimney fire at 33 Frairy Street. No damage.
November 21. Alarm for grass fire between Medfield junc- tion and Farm St. on Railroad land. No damage.
25
19 still alarms for grass and chimney fires.
At a special meeting $5500 was voted to purchase motor apparatus. After testing out several makes of trucks we decided to purchase two Republic chassis. A one ton we had equipped by the O. J. Childs Co., at Utica, N. Y., with two 35 gallon chemical tanks, ladders, extinguishers, etc., a 11/2 ton chassis we had equipped in Town by Albert A. Dean, with steel body for hose, brackets for ladders, etc. Both pieces we had painted in Town by Fred M. Smith. The fire August 26, at Medfield Junction was the first alarm the chemical responded to and was on the job inside of 8 min- utes after the alarm struck. Unfortunately the hose truck was not in commission at this time. We are satisfied that we have two good pieces of motor apparatus. If we had an auto pumping engine to go with these we would be as well equipped as any town around us. We would strongly recom- mend the purchase of an auto pump this year. We were obliged to pay out over $225.00 in repairs on the old pump this year much against our judgement, in order to keep it going until we can get something better. We should have 500 feet more hose. We recommend $1200 as the regular ap- propriation this year if we get the new pump. If we keep the old one with liability of expense of repairs we shall feel obliged to ask for $1800.

PUBLIC LIBRARY REPORT
To the Board of Selectmen the following report is re- spectfully submitted.
The organization of the Board of Trustees remains as last year. Mr. James Atherton being the new member and Mrs. Keyou having been re-elected.
There have been 61 books presented, and 92 purchased, making a total of 153 books added during the year. Of this number 121 are fiction and 62 juvenile. For the donations we are indebted to Mrs. Frank Day and Mrs. Laura H. Smith for the greater number, and to Miss Gwendolyn Morse, Mr. Geo. H. Ellis, Mr. W. H. Everett and Mr. Geo. Boose for others.
Most of these books had been used but were in good con- dition when received and are much appreciated.
We are also indebted to Mr. Granville Dailey for the brass door-plates and the door mat.
The list of periodicals subscribed for are the same as last year except The Ladies Home Journal has been added and American City omitted.
28
The circulation for the year is 8,103.
The resignation of Miss Lucretia Johnson as librarian took effect January first, after a period of about thirty-five years of faithful and devoted service. In recognition of her un- tiring efforts in the interest of the library, the honor of Lib- rarian Emeritus has been conferred upon her and we will continue to have her advice in matters pertaining to the wel- fare of the library.
Miss Ethel Wood has been appointed librarian and Miss Gladys Wright has been engaged as assistant, while Mrs. G. F. Mitchell will continue to act as substitute.
During the winter Miss Wiggin from the State Library Commission gave four lectures to the pupils of the High School and 8th Grade, on the use of the library. Owing to the increased expense of maintaining the library, the trustees recommend that the town appropriate the sum of $1,200.00 in addition to the regular resources.
