Under the auspices of the Womans Club, Mothercraft was taught by the Public Health Nurse during the summer two afternoons a week at School and Central Streets play- grounds. The girls enrolled in these classes were from ten to fourteen years of age. Ten lectures were given, which included public and personal hygiene and the care and feeding of babies. A large sized doll and utensils for making up formulas were used for demonstrations. At the end of the season a quiz was given, and it was evident that much interest had been taken in the class work. 64 girls received diplomas.
Health Crusade literature was introduced on the other grounds. This consisted of ten health chores to be put into practice daily.
School visits 311. These visits included follow up work of the defects found by the physician at the time of examin- ition, and also children that have been absent from school for sickness. Parents were urged to take the child to a physician for advice and treatment. Special appeal being nade that the parent realize the necessity of proper food. est, fresh air, and sunshine.
Several class room inspections have been made for con-

Health talks have been given in the class rooms, anc health literature given to the children to learn and practice daily. Several grades have been enrolled as Health Crusaders.
The nurse assisted at the examination of 180 pupils.

MILK INSPECTOR'S REPORT
To the Honorable Board of Health.
I hereby render my report for the year ending December 31, 1920. .
I have during the year issued the following licenses :
Licenses granted to peddlers 36
-
Licenses granted to stores 2
Permits granted to sell oleomargarine 15
I have deposited with the Town Treasurer the sum of $26.50 received for these licenses and permits.
But very few complaints have been received about the quality of milk sold in town, samples have been taken and examined and in no case was it necessary to bring anyone to court.
One dealer has this year been delivering pasteurized milk which gives the public a chance to buy milk that is practi- cally free from disease bearing bacteria; this is a move in the right direction if milk is to be handled by dealers.
Again I must call to your attention the practice of leaving

the full milk bottle after delivery in the sun or in a place where it will become dirty, as this is a sure way to make sour milk, it should be taken into the house and placed in a cold place.
I wish to thank the farmers and dealers for their efforts to give the people of the town clean and pure milk.
Respectfully submitted,
ALBERT R. BROWN.
Inspector of Milk.

LIBRARIAN'S REPORT.
The circulation of the library during the year has reached 55,299, a slight gain over 1919. The percentage of circula- tion in the various classes remained much the same as last

ANNUAL REPORTS
year, with a rather larger increase in the use of technical books and books of travel.
The library now contains 24,093 volumes. Among the additions have been a number of notable biographies, includ- ing "Theodore Roosevelt and his time" by Bishop, "The Americanization of Edward Bok", Watterson's "Marse Henry", Margot Asquith's "Autobiography". Other books worth noting are Brand Whitlock's "Belgium" Shackleton's "South" and a number of books on economics and industrial conditions, business and education. Among the new techni- cal books are a special group on woolens and worsteds. A bulletin containing a list of all of the books purchased can be obtained free at the library.
We were unfortunately obliged to return the books in Polish, Greek, Italian and Swedish which had been loaned to us by the Mass. library commission, and much used and appreciated by the people of those nationalities. The Woman's education association of Boston has kindly loaned us an "Italian library of forty-six Volumes.
Groups of young women in the "Continuation classes" have been given instruction in the use of the library.
There have been interesting and valuable gifts to the historical collection. We especially wish to thank Mrs. A. J. Bartholomew for a collection of antique objects, Miss Cady and Mr. E. F. Dakin for early maps of Southbridge, Mr. H. L. Ammidown for a family chart, the Monday Club for their records and programs.
The usual exhibition of pictures have been sent us by the Library art club.
The reading-rooms have been very popular, the children's room often truly overflowing. Familiarity does not always breed contempt. We hear more and more appreciative re- marks about our beautiful building each year.
The sad event of our year was the death of Mr. J. M. Cochran, who had not only been a trustee. of the Edwards

Report of Sewer Commissioners
To the citizens of the Town of Southbridge:
Your Board of Sewer Commissioners herewith submit their report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1920. There are now connected with the system 1130 buildings, including manufacturing plants, schools, public buildings, tenement houses and residences. Inasmuch as there was not a great deal of sewer construction done during the season of 1920 the Sewer Commissioners have not much to report.
The Central St. has been completed and accepted by your Commissioners, and the balance due the conductor, the American Optical Co., has been paid.
In accordance with the recommendation of the Town of Southbridge the Commissioners have built a stretch of sewer on Everett St. of a length of 252.1 ft., at a cost of $624.65. The same has been completed and accepted by the Board and assessments have been levied.
In anticipation of the concrete highway construction on Elm St. the Commissioners in conjuction with the Board of Selectmen deemed it advisable to construct 232 feet of sewer on this street at a cost of $527 78. This was accepted and assessments levied.
The work at the filter beds has been satisfactory and met with the approval of the State Inspector.
In reference to the appropriation for sewer maintenance
118

for the coming year we recommend the sum of $3,000.00.
Respectfully submitted, J. A. ALLARD, PHILIPPE DAGENAIS G. W. LAVALLE.
Report of Cemetery Committee
To the Citizens of the Town of Southbridge.
The Cemetery Committee organized for the year of 1920 with Wardwell M. Edwards as Chairman and S. W. Williams as Clerk.
We have endeavored during the year to interest all the lot owners with whom we have come in contact in Perpetual Care, feeling that the owners that have this care on their lots will be better satisfied with the condition in which their lots all kept.
At the present time we have two hundred and sixty-six lots that are taken care of in this manner, and our first endeavor is to see that these lots receive the best of care.
We have improved the Everett Street entrance by the planting of trees and shrubs, when developed this planting will greatly beautify this entrance. A number of lot owners have, with the sanction of the Committee set out shrubs and small trees on their own lots, this improves these indivi- dual lots, and, at the same time beautifies the section of the Cemetery in which these lots are located.
The Committee appreciates their doing this, and trusts hat in the coming year more owners will become interested n this kind of work.
The Committee planned on extending the Water System so as to supply a number of the lots that have been sold in the past few years, but, on account of lack of funds were
120
ANNUAL REPORTS
unable to do so, we trust that this will be done during the coming year.
We wish to emphasize at this time that we cannot assume the responsibility for vases or flower pots that are left on the different lots, we endeavor to keep as close a watch as possible to see that nothing is stolen, but on account of the size of the Cemetery and the number of different entrances it is an impossibility to give any individual lot special attention.
If anyone wishes to, they may hand their vases to the Foreman at the Cemetery with their names and he will hold them until called for.
We wish at this time to thank the citizens and town officials for their cooperation during the year.
Respectfully submitted
WARDWELL M. EDWARDS, GEORGE H. HARTWELL, JR. CLARENCE F. MORSE, DANIEL T. MORRILL, ALVA L. HYDE, SEAVER M. RICE.

Report of Playground Committee
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
I respectfully submit the report of Miss Margaret Butler, Supervisor of the Playgrounds and Bathhouses for the year 1920.
The season started with $151.91 of 1919 unpaid bills and ended with a balance of $328.95.
Extensive needed repairs were made to the bathhouses and buildings on different playgrounds and all apparatus put in first class condition. We bought two new grapho- phones, one portable and with music on all playgrounds, a couple of times per week, it was a great help in making the year a success, by encouraging and keeping the children interested in their other work. These two machines are now being used by the schools during the year.
I would recommend that the bathhouses, store sheds and other buildings, as well as all apparatus, that remain out of doors, be painted, before reopening for the next season.
Yours respectfully, HECTOR M. LECLAIR, Sec'y of Playground Committee
Mr. Hector Le Clair, Secretary of the Playground Com- nittee.
Dear Sir :-

122
ANNUAL REPORTS

The playgrounds at Central, School, Union, River, Eli streets and Sandersdale opened for the summer season c six weeks, Monday, July 10, with an attendance of 109 children.
Play Periods :--
The sessions were divided into play and work periods During play periods time was devoted to active games singing games, folk dancing, team games, and quiet games

Swimming :-
Instructors in swimming were at Big Pond to teach children in the art of swimming, on Monday and Tuesday mornings. The classes were well attended, but the in- structors feel that parents should interest themselves in this department and encourage children to attend.

Health Classes :-
Under the patronage of the Southbridge Woman's Club,

During the year many inspections were made at differen times of which no record was kept. The scales of hawkers peddlers, coal dealers, ice dealers and those in markets grocery stores etc., were inspected to insure against care lessness and fraud.
Within the last few years many outside hawkers anc peddlers have been eliminated from this town, to the benefit of our merchants, who pay rent and taxes and give em. ployment : it is no more than right that they should be protected .
The department has received few complaints of short weight this year, although many violations of the law were noted and quickly adjusted. All of the violations except one, where a fine was paid, were slight, and it was not deemed advisable to bring them to the attention of the court.
More incorrect scales have been seized and condemned during the past year, and are held at the Sealer's office.
The duties of the Sealer of Weights and Measures are becoming more important and harder each year, as the Government and State inspectors require more work and
127
ANNUAL REPORTS
time put in the position to stop fraud and deceit and give a greater protection to the purchasing public. 1
The town is in need of a large platform scale to weigh big truck loads of junk, coal, hay, merchandise, etc., which should be located in the center of the town.
The town owns a platform scale over 5000 lbs. situated on High Street, which is out of the way and located on the and of the Hamilton Woolen Co., which requests that it should be removed.
The inventory of the Sealer's dept., which was taken on Dec. 31, by former Sealers Daniel T. Morrill, Fred G. Adams and Eugene Gabree has given the amount of $401.00. .
The fees collected during the year and paid to the Town Treasurer amount to $162.72.
Respectfully submitted
FELIX GATINEAU, Sealer.
