ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
CEMETERY COMMITTEE.
CEMETERY COMMITTEE.
Report of Cemetery Committee.
The work of the Superintendent, Samuel Williams, for the past year, has been to the satisfaction and approval of the Com- mittee. We submit his report which fully explains the kind and amount of work done during the past year. The Cemetery Fund now amounts to $9,574.25, a gain of $525 during the past year. All receipts from the sale of lots and perpetual care go to increase the permanent fund and owing to the thoughtful- ness of the citizens in attending to these matters it is expected that the interest of the fund, will in a few years, be sufficient to pay all expenses connected with the care of the Cemetery. We believe that we have one of the most beautiful and best kept Cemeteries in the state and we trust that the citizens will co-operate with the Superintendent, as heretofore, in making it yet more beautiful.
The investment of the fund, as required by the town by- laws, is made by the Town Treasurer and is as follows : - Southbridge Savings Bank, $1,600 00
Salem Savings Bank,
1,000 00
Worcester Co. Institution of Savings,
1,000 00

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMITTEE.

Superintendent's Report.
TO THE CEMETERY COMMITTEE :
Gentlemen : The same ideas and improvements as recom- mended by you last spring have been carried out.
The grading of the land near Coombs street entrance is completed, it contains about 140 lots which will when sold realize about $7,000. It will have to be resurveyed before the lots can be offered for sale.
I commenced the removal of the sand bank, carting the sand to the adjacent low land which needs to be filled from 2 1-2 to 4 1-2 feet in depth. It will probably require nearly all the sand to do the filling. When the bank is removed and the low land brought up to the grade it will add much to the beauty of the Cemetery.
If the town should think best to do the above work this year, also build the pond on the east side, it will complete all the heavy improvements after. which a small appropration will be sufficient to keep the yard in order.
Respectfully submitted,
SAMUEL WILLIAMS, Superintendent.

HENRY B. MONTAGUE, Secretary.
Librarian's Report.
The number of books issued for home use is 19696, a slight gain over last year. Fiction, French books, and maga- zine literature have each decreased in circulation under one per cent. The circulation of children's books shows a trifling in- crease. The combined increase in circulation of history, biog- raphy, travel, science, and literature is nearly 2 1-2 per cent.
102
REPORT OF LIBRARY COMMITTEE.
These figures mark but slight variations, but show a tendency which is in general encouraging.
Two hundred and twenty-six new readers have registered. 531 volumes have been added, 14 have been removed, making the total number of volumes in the library 17246. 40 volumes have been replaced, 32 have been rebound. In the annual in- ventory 6 books were missing; it is likely that some of these can be accounted for later. Other statistics follow this report.
Among the more notable purchases of books are a revised edition of Chambers's encyclopædia, the Warner library of the world's best literature (in 30 volumes), a new atlas of Worcester county, the last 15 volumes of the New England historical and genealogical register, the history of the Lewis and Clarke ex- pedition to the sources of the Missouri river, Britton and Brown's Illustrated flora of the northern United States and Canada, and Vallance's William Morris.
In the periodical list, Le monde moderne, New England historical and genealogical register, Recreation, and the builder's edition of the Scientific American are added.
A new bookcase has been placed in the reading room. The worn and unsightly floors have been covered with a cork carpet.
The classification of the books is being continued as fast as there is time for it apart from the regular work of the libra- ry. A classified list of books of travel has been printed since our last report. We hope within a few months to have printed a classified list of the history.
No account is kept of books consulted in the library but so far as we can judge without statistics the reference use of books seems to have been more than last year. The librarian gave a short talk to the pupils of the high school on some com- mon reference books and how to use them.
The museum has had frequent visitors, most of them children.
103
REPORT OF LIBRARY COMMITTEE.
Gifts have been made to the museum by Miss Fidelia Simpson, Mr. J. N. Larned, Mr. W. H. Clarke, Mr. Michael Earls, and Mr. W. J. Litchfield. Names of persons who have given books appear in the list of donors. We are indebted to Mr. Roland Harper for adding to our fern collection. The local newspapers have done the library a real service in printing weekly lists of books and items of library interest. We have been glad to observe that these lists are read and found useful.
In the summer of 1898 we joined the Library Art Club. Through the club we have had three exhibitions: in October original drawings lent by the Youth's Companion; in December photographs of Florence, Italy; in February views of New England scenery furnished by the Boston and Maine R. R. There will be other exhibitions later.
Heretofore the library has never been open on Sundays, While we were not aware of an urgent demand for Sunday opening, we considered it only just to the public that the ex- periment should be made. In case the attendance should be insufficient to warrant a continuation of the plan, we should have the satisfaction, at least, of feeling that the library was not unused on Sunday because the opportunity to use it was denied. Accordingly the newspaper- and reading-rooms were opened from 3.30 to 8 o'clock p. m. on Sundays from Nov. I to April 1. No books are issued for circulation, but any book in the library can be read there. It has not been possible to keep account of the attendance in the newspaper-room, as that is without supervision, but the total number of visitors in the reading room in the sixteen Sundays to March I has been 321, the largest 34, the smallest 10, an average of 20.
The librarian has attended during the year meetings of the Mass. Library Club and the Bay Path Library Club and the annual conference of the American Library Association at Chautauqua.
