The force consists of a chief and four patrolmen. The same as last year, the patrolmen report for duty at 7 P. M. Their routes are as follows : Officer Barry has the centre of the town with Pleasant street to the Belmont line, Academy street, Mystic street to Winchester line, and from Bartlett avenue to Webster street.
Officer Austin has the territory from Bartlett avenue, to Forest street, including Arlington avenue, Summer above Mill, and all connecting streets ; he also covers Jason and Academy streets when he reports at the Station at 11 P. M. Officer Irwin takes all above Forest street, and Officer Hooley all below Webster street.
Exact bounds or time cannot be made for any of them but they are ordered to go where their services are most needed. They have so much territory to cover that it must not seem strange that they cannot always be just where they are most wanted. They have the street lights to look after as far as reporting the " outs."
In 1890, as in previous years, an earnest effort has been made to suppress the illegal sale of intoxicating liquor.
110
REPORT OF CHIEF OF POLICE.
The keeper of the "kitchen" bar is the most difficult to convict. Ofttimes a neighbor will say such a person is selling rum, still while they would like to see them prosecuted, they will give no evidence to help convict, and many people have the mistaken idea that all an officer has to do to convict a person of violating the liquor law, is to find liquor on the premises ; but such is not the case, for in connection with the finding of such liquors, a sale must be proven, or evi- dence given that it is a place of common resort. It is safe to say it was never more difficult than at the present time for a person to procure liquor in Arlington.
Our town has been comparatively free from crimes of a serious nature.
In three cases of breaking and entering, property of very little value was taken and the most of that was recovered. For these crimes the thief was given a sentence of three years in the State's Prison.
The Sunday travel to Arlington the past summer was greater than ever before, making it necessary to employ four special officers almost every Sunday. They were placed where it was thought they would do the best service in pre- serving the peace and protecting property, but it was found that four men scattered as they were obliged to be, could not give the satisfaction desired. I recommend that at least two more specials be put on duty on Sundays when needed.
The regular officers are on duty Sundays, one in the morn- ing and three in the afternoon ; this service they give in ad- dition to their night duty, and for it they get no extra pay. I recommend that they be given half a day's pay for the Sun- day afternoon work.
In closing my report I desire to thank the honorable Board of Selectmen, also Town Clerk, B. Delmont Locke, and Wm. H. H. Tuttle, Esq., for counsel and friendly advice.
I have the honor to be, gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
EUGENE MEAD,
Chief of Police.

We consider our Fire Alarm second to none in the State with the exception of those in the cities. After nearly two years of trial it has proved itself to be of valuable assistance, at the same time, however, requiring considerable careful attention.
BUILDINGS AND APPARATUS.
The new house for the Chemical at Arlington Heights was completed and a Company stationed there July first. A con- tract was made with Mr. Dennis Reardon to furnish a horse to draw the same at the rate of fifty cents per day.
I would respectfully suggest that the town furnish a pair of horses for the Chemical, under the same conditions as those furnished for similar purposes in other parts of the 8

114
REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
town, and that a pole be attached to the Chemical for this purpose.
The Broadway house needs repairing and painting. The Hook and Ladder Truck needs some repairing, the most im- portant of which, perhaps, is a pair of wheels.
I would further suggest that a four way post hydrant be placed near the Town House instead of the flush hydrant now in use.
APPROPRIATION.
I would recommend an appropriation of $3500 to meet the expenses of the coming year.
In closing I desire to express my sincere thanks to your honorable Board, and to my Assistants and the members of the Department, for the cheerful manner in which they have aided me in the discharge of duties.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES GOTT, Chief Engineer.
REPORT
៛ OF THE
TRUSTEES OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
To the Town of Arlington :
In submitting their report for the year 1890, the Trustees of the Public Library have to state that the library has continued to prosper under the efficient charge of Miss Newton. In March, Miss Marion B. Fessenden, who for some years had held the position of assistant librarian, re- signed. Miss Fessenden's uniform courtesy and readiness to oblige, as well as her diligent performance of duty, made her departure a subject of general regret. Her place is now . filled by Miss Mary L. Dupee.
As is almost necessarily the case in so well established a library as ours, few important or striking changes of system occur in any year. Such alterations and improvements as are made are ordinarily in small details of management, each of no great moment in itself, but all tending to increase the usefulness of the library. The librarian's statement shows that both the number and circulation of the books are increasing and no signs appear that the public interest in the library is likely to diminish.
In the selection of books a high degree of care is used. Books are rarely ordered unless their character is vouched for by responsible persons, by critics of repute or by their
116
REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY.
admission into other libraries of high standing .. When re- ceived they are subjected to a further scrutiny and not placed on the shelves unless they are apparently desirable. Nevertheless, complaint is occasionally, although rarely ' made that valueless or objectionable books are in the library. In such cases the book criticised is carefully examined, and if the complaint appears to be well founded, its use is re- stricted or it is removed altogether. It is not to be forgot- ten however that in a public library designed to serve readers of every variety of taste no hard and fast rule in the selec- tion of books can or ought to be followed. While obviously harmful and worthless books should be excluded, many books of no great literary value which nevertheless give whole- some and attractive reading, ought to be admitted. Even the poorest books in a public library often do good by tak- ing the place of outside reading that is a great deal worse. The Trustees welcome all the assistance that the public can give them both in criticism of books that are in the library and in recommendation of books that should be added. As has been said in former reports a blank form of application is provided, and the person recommending a book is given the first opportunity to read it.
One very useful means of assistance to readers is the card catalogue, which has lately been moved into the reading-room where it may be freely consulted by any person. This con- sists of a case of thirty drawers containing cards upon which are written the titles and numbers of books. The cards are placed in the drawers in strict alphabetical order according to their headings, which are of author, title or subject. The catalogue is designed to be an index to the contents of the library fuller than any printed catalogue could be made to be without great labor and expense. It assists the reader in various ways. If he wishes to know what books by a certain author the library has, the cards under the name of that author will inform him, not only as to complete works but in many cases as to parts of books. If he knows the title of a book and wishes to see if the library has it, he may
117
REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY.
find out at once by looking for that title. If he wishes in- formation on a certain subject, the cards catalogued under that subject contain the names of such books or parts of books as treat of it. The use of this catalogue is as readily learned as the use of the ordinary printed catalogues, while it serves needs that they cannot. Before it was placed in the reading-room, the librarian and her assistants found it an indispensable aid and now that it is more accessible than heretofore, its usefulness is continually increasing.
The weekly delivery of books at Arlington Heights has been continued under charge of Miss Lucy C. Bailey. Upon her removal from town in December, Mr. H. S. Russell took her place. The success that has attended this system favors its introduction at the eastern end of the town if the people of that neighborhood so desire. The Trustees believe that under suitable management such weekly delivery of books would be found as convenient there as at the Heights.
The experiment was first tried last year of publishing in the Town Report a list of books added during the year. A list so published is more accessible and likely to be preserved than if printed separately. The same plan is followed this year and will probably be continued.
