Report of Selectmen,
For the Year Ending December 31, 1921.
The grounds in front of the Town Hall have been greatly improved. A Memorial Tablet has been erected on a suitable plot with a cement drive about it and the grounds graded and seeded.
Grading in the rear of the building and a drive around the north side of the hall would add much for convenience. A few minor repairs should be done on the inside and the woodwork and inside finish varnished.
In the recommendation of appropriations the Selectmen have asked for a larger amount for Charities, as at the pre- sent time there is a much greater demand for assistance in this department.
We respectfully recommend the following appropriations for the ensuing year.

There has been quite a lot of work done on the streets in Town the past year. Every street in Town has been scraped and cleaned up once, and a great many of them twice; a
51
number of culverts cleaned out; one new culvert built on Progressive Avenue, ; and face wall laid in cement on West Center Street over the brook near the Howard High School.
Cinders have been put on sidewalk from Matfield Depot to the East Bridgewater line, and gravel put on walks on Matfield Street and at Cochesett.
Work has been done on the gravel roads with Steam Roller, viz .: West Center, South, Matfield, North Elm, and Plain Streets.
Gravel has been put on a number of streets: The whole of Grant St .; a number of loads on Progressive Ave .; Brooks Place; the whole of Sunset Ave .; nearly the whole of Spring St .; Crescent St .; the whole of Francis Ave. ; corner at Spring St. fixed; corner of Walnut St .; the greater part of Forest St .; corner of West St. fixed; and a great many loads on different bad places in roads. Quite a long piece of road on Matfield St. has been dug out and stoned and cinders put on.
There has also been a piece of Black Road put in on Mat- field Street by the Barrett people, about 400 ft. in length, for experiment. This did not cost the Town anything only for closing the road and keeping travel off for four days until the road got hard. I picked out this piece of road as a good place to try out. Quite a lot of heavy travel goes over this road and it is a good place to watch and see how frost will work on the mixture. I wish people in Town would watch this piece of road for if it stands travel and frosts it is a good road to build on quite a number of our streets.
The Town equipment of tools for building good roads is rather poor. The time has come when a gravel road will not stand the hard travel the roads get and the only tools we have got to build black roads with are picks, shovels, rakes, forks, stone forks, lanterns, gravel screens, road machine, road plow, tar kettle and snow plows.
