Report of Selectmen For the Year Ending December 31, 1919.


Following out the system adopted by the Town in 1917, the Town Accountant renders a report of all the financial transactions of the Town under the direction of the Bureau of Statistics. We believe that this system as carried on so efficiently by Mr. Arthur C. Peckham, the Town Accountant, is a vast improvement over the former system of accounts. Under this system the State audits the accounts, which automatically abolishes the office of Town Auditor.


This year a new heating system has been installed in the Town Hall and offices which works satisfactorily. Two gas ranges have been installed in the kitchen. While the general condition of the hall is good, some repairs to the building are necessary and we have recommended the appropriation with this in mind.


E. S. LELACHEUR, ORVIS F. KINNEY, JAMES A. HEMENWAY, Selectmen.
