At the request of residents of North Street, a study was made of the feasibility and cost of an extension of the public sewer in a northerly direction from the corner of Dale Street. It was found that this sewer may be extended, without pump- ing, up North Street to Pine Street and up Pine Street and Summer Street for a total of 2135 feet, and that a large part of the new development off North Street might also be served by gravity into the same sewer. Costs are estimated at about $10.00 per foot at the present time. Since very few of the abuttors appeared in favor of an assessment based on this amount we are making no recommendation at this time. How- ever, we feel that this project is one which should be kept in
47 :
mind for the not too distant future, due to the fact that this whole area is rapidly being built up to a high residential density.
For proper care of the sewer system we ask for an appro. priation of $1400. for the year 1950, the same as in 1949.
Respectfully submitted, John D. Williams

ANNUAL REPORT from the MEMORIAL PUBLIC LIBRARY 1949
To the Citizens of Medfield:
The Memorial Public Library is open every day from Sep- tember through June from 2:00 to 8:30 P. M., excepting Sun- days and holidays and through July and August from 5:30 to 8:30 P. M. The library staff consists of Mrs. Leslie Howlett, librarian, and Miss Ethel Hersey, assistant librarian.
Mr. C. Monroe Clark was elected to the board of library trustees in March. Mr. E. Perley Eaton moved from town at the end of the summer and Mr. Charles F. Woodard was ap- pointed to fill the unexpired term.
The Library circulated an average of 49 books daily during 1949; 14,973 is the annual total; 3,636 of these books were juvenile. In the past several years the total yearly circulation has been:
1945 - 14,436 1946 12,949
1947 - 13,177
1948 - 15,623
The number of library patrons is approximately 1,000. There have been 97 new applicants this year. It is apparent that the library is becoming more popular as a reading room. The numerous current magazines are an attraction, of course, and school children use the room regularly for finding reference materials.
48
Books have been lent to the school to a greater extent this year. The primary grades keep a book corner in their class rooms where library books are deposited on a month's-loan basis. This practice enables the child to have new reading material through the school day and also helps him to realize the advantage open to him at his public library.
During Book Week, in November, the elementary school children visited the library by grades and were informed on some of the uses of the library. Novel bookmarks and library application blanks were given to the children. Nine of the children returned with their signed applications and are now regular borrowers. To make the library more interesting to visitors during Book Week, Miss Madelyn Grant consented to lending her collection of antique dolls. The children and adults were very interested in these period dolls and their costumes. The trustees wish to express their appreciation of Miss Grant's kindness.
The Story Hour program for children was very successful this past summer. The library was filled to capacity. On one day, over fifty little children came to hear recordings from "The Music Box" which was rented from the Division of Public Libraries and to listen to fairy tales. Mrs. Ann Young helped with the story telling and Miss Jean Gilbert assisted as part of her Girl Scout Reader's badge work. Mr. Joseph Marcionette made all the children happy by giving them lollypops on one of the best attended days. This morning program for children from the first and second grades was held from July 5 to July 15 from eleven o'clock until twelve and a similar program is being planned for the coming summer. The library building was surprisingly cool and comfortable on some of the warmest days of summer and the children seemed interested.
The Massachusetts Division of Public Libraries at Boston has been very helpful to our small library again this year by lending books on specialized subjects whenever there were re- quests which we could not fill. When this Division does not have the desired book, it arranges for an inter-library loan. If you are not affiliated with a city library and wish to borrow technical books, your local librarian will be glad to try to borrow for you.
There were 196 new books for adults purchased this year and 90 new ones were bought for the juvenile department, making a total of 286 new books. The trustees of the library feel that this is a small number of books for an annual circu- lation of over 14,000. They hope that the library department will receive a town appropriation sufficient to increase the
49

Goldthwait, Mr. John Yeo, Mr. Lester Rudd, Mrs. E. N. Woelfle, Mrs. Ed- mund Pease, Miss Dorothy Gardner, Miss Lillian Fish, Mrs. Lindsey Ripley, Mrs. Richard H. Hager, Mrs. Henry Young, Mr. Lawton Kingsbury, Mrs. Catherine Long, Miss Mary Flagg, Mrs. Joseph Limric, Mrs. Thomas Clancy, Mr. Joseph Kennedy, Mr. Pliny Jewell, and Mrs. Evelyn Byng who has given several beautiful sets of classics. The trustees are grateful also to the members of the Garden Club who sent beautifully arranged flowers to the library during the year.
The library trustees and staff want very much to extend every library service possible. There is a suggestion box on the center desk; all book suggestions or suggestions for greater service to the community will be appreciated.
The members of the library board have carefully con- sidered the cost of library maintenance, repair, and the pur- chase of new books for the coming year and recommend that an appropriation of $1200 together with the dog tax receipts and the amount of library fines for 1949 be voted to the library department.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE
The Board of Public Welfare has had an extremely busy year. This has been due to the handling of the case load and some changes in regulations by which the Board is governed. The Board has met with several cases which were extremely complex and, therefore, time consuming.
Following are the statistics of the cases handled by the Board during the year 1949:
1. Old Age Assistance:
On January 1, 1949 there were 51 cases. During the year 15 new cases were added. Of these 15 cases, 10 were Medfield settled, 2 were unsettled and 3 were other than Medfield settled. During the year 9 cases were closed by death and 2 by admission to Institutions. As of December 31, 1949 there are 55 persons receiving Old Age Assistance.
2. Aid to Dependent Children:
On January 1, 1949 there were 4 cases. These 4 cases are continuing to receive aid as of December 31, 1949.
3. General Relief.
On January 1, 1949 there were 4 cases. During the year 5 cases were added of which 1 was other than Medfield settled. Four cases were closed during the year. Two of these cases moved from Medfield and in two instances there was a change in economic circumstances. As of Dec- ember 31, 1949 there are 5 General Relief cases.
We were instructed by the State Department of Public Welfare to increase the grants to all persons receiving Old Age Assistance by $4.00 per month effective December 1, 1949 under the "Leisure Time Activities" enactment.
A new set of federal regulations was issued July 1, 1949. In brief the requirements are as follows.
1. The Board of Public Welfare must have separate quarters in which all vital records are kept.
2. Accurate records of attendance, mileage travelled in visit- ing, and administrative expenditures must be kept.
3. An agent, other than a Board member, must be employed to do the social, clerical and fiscal work.
The requirements are not mandatory but must be met to receive Federal participation in administrative expenses.
To date all of these requirements have been met with the exception of the employment of a suitable agent. We do, how- ever, expect to overcome this obstacle very shortly.
52
In conclusion we would like to express our appreciation for the cooperation of those town officials upon whom we have had to call during the year and to those private businesses with whom we have dealt and to the doctors of the town for their helpfulness.

This year we had a bad train and automobile accident in which one passenger was killed and the operator badly hurt.
Two persons were drowned- one female, one male.
A new police car was purchased for the Police Department and if the Town would purchase a new one each year they would save money in the end.
Two new men who passed civil service tests were appointed spares, with conditions. As things are today, I recommend another regular officer.
