REPORT OF TOWN ACCOUNTANT
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
Gentlemen :--
In presenting my report for the year ending December 31, 1921, I will say the system of accounting has been carried out as in the previous years as installed by the Bureau of Statistics of Massa- chusetts.
As for suggestions I would ask that all Boards and Committees who contract bills for the Town to have same billed to the Town of Southbridge and to the proper department, and not the Chairmen or Clerks of the Boards or Committees. If this is complied with, it will save a great deal of correspondence. The same careful scrutiny of all bills is maintained as in former years.
Attention should be brought to the various Departments not to contract bills in excess of their appropriation.
A few of our merchants hold their bills too long, and I am of the opinion if they were filed with each department more promptly, delayed payment would be avoided and would be of great assistance to the several departments.
In closing I wish to extend my sincere thanks to our various town departments for their hearty cooperation and assistance rend- ered during the year.
Respectfully, VALMORE P. TETREAULT,
Town Accountant.
