WIRES.
The condition of the wires through the trees is a very important matter, and we shall always have trouble from burning until they are put underground. I wish to testify to the prompt manner in which the Edison Light Company attends to all complaints. They have been willing at all times to conform to the laws, and to meet the wishes of the Tree Warden. Through the combined efforts of the Tree Warden and the Inspector of Wires, we com- pelled the Bay State Street Railway Company to re-run their wires the entire length of Mystic Street, so that now this line is in a much better condition.
CONCLUSION
I would recommend that $1500 be appropriated this year - $750 for the planting of 300 new trees, to be set on the following streets: Freeman, Melrose, Milton, Varnum, Magnolia, Amsden, Winsor, Trowbridge, Cliff, Draper Avenue, Florence Avenue and Orvis Road; $250 for 400 Lombardy poplars for the New High School lot; and $500 for the removal of dead and dangerous trees, and for the general care and maintenance of existing trees.

REPORT OF BOARD OF PARK COMMISSIONERS.
ARLINGTON, MASS., January 2, 1916.
The Board of Park Commissioners desire to submit the following report:
There has been little change in the work of the Commission the past year. The principal matter requiring the attention of the Board has been the settlement for land taken on the shores of Mystic Lake for park purposes and turned over to the Metropolitan Park Commission. This Commission having already built part of the Boulevard to subgrade, it looks as if the work might be completed in the near future. The triangles on Medford Street were planted this year, and one hundred 36-inch pines were set out in Menotomy Park. The seedling pines set out in this park a few years ago are growing rapidly and if they are left to grow they will make quite a showing in a few years. To keep this park up, it needs a caretaker about all the time during the summer and fall.
Outside of the planting, the appropriation this year has all been expended in the care of the various parks under our jurisdiction.
Respectfully submitted,
C. H. GANNETT, WILLIAM W. CROSBY, WILLIAM E. LLOYD,

REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
-
The Board of Public Works herewith submits its annual report for the year ending December 31, 1915.
At the Town Meeting held on March 1, 1915, Philip Eberhardt, Henry S. Adams and Robert W. Pond were elected members of the Board for one, two and three years respectively. The Board organized on March 1, 1915, with the choice of Henry S. Adams as Chairman.
Mr. Henry W. Hayes, who has given most efficient service to the Town for the past eight years as member of the Board of Public Works, is now Chairman of the Planning Board, the Town thereby continuing to have the benefit of his experience and judgment.
APPOINTMENTS.
At a meeting held March 8, 1915, Harold N. Willis was ap- pointed Clerk of the Board. March 29, Herbert S. Clark was appointed Superintendent of Public Works, George E. Ahern, Assistant Superintendent of Public Works, and Harold N. Willis, Water Registrar and Bookkeeper. These appointments were from April 1, 1915.
MEETINGS.
The regular meetings are held each Monday evening. During the year the Board held fifty-two regular and eight special meetings.
The following are the net expenditures made under the direction of the Board:

HIGHWAY DIVISION.
During the year Jason Street was reconstructed from a point opposite No. 36 to Gray Street; Broadway on the Northerly side from Warren Street to Gardner Street and on the Southerly side from Harlow Street to Marathon Street; and Medford Street on its Easterly side from Lewis Avenue to opposite No. 119. The total cost of this work was $5,000.29.
The following streets were resurfaced at an expense of $2,973.88. Prospect Avenue, Park Avenue to Hillside Avenue.
Hillside Avenue, Prospect. Avenue to Oalkand Avenue, entire width, Oakland Avenue to Florence Avenue, westerly side.
Appleton Street, Florence Avenue to Massachusetts Avenue. Warren Street, Franklin Street to Palmer Street.
River Street, from the Boulevard to the bridge.
In addition to the above, the sum of $8,189.27 was expended on the care and repair of public streets. Under this head is included the cost of tar patching parts of streets that were be- ginning to show undue wear and depressions in the surfaces, thereby improving the surfaces and postponing until some future time the necessity of reconstructing or resurfacing same.
The sidewalks were gone over carefully, in some instances being built up with cinders and elsewhere given a top dressing of fine stone. The cost of this work was $3,077.27.
Owing to the heavy rains in January and July, the storm drains and catchbasins required an unusual amount of attention and more waste material was removed from the latter than has usually been the case.
As there was no appropriation made for permanent sidewalks, what little work was done in this particular had to be paid for out of the Highway appropriation.
378
ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT
There were constructed two short lengths of tar walk, one on Winter Street in front of the Crosby School and the other on Appleton Street near Acton Street. This type of sidewalk can be constructed for about fifty cents per square yard, and the Board recommends that the Town adopt a policy of appropriating a given sum each year for the construction of tar walks.
An appropriation of $1,870.80 was made for the widening of Massachusetts Avenue on its northerly side, between Water and Central Streets, and the relaying of the sidewalks, relocation of edgestone and resurfacing the roadway. The work, owing to the delays caused by the construction of the new stores, the laying of public service conduits, and construction of retaining walls, cost $2,977.60, the excess being taken from the Highway ap- propriation.
The Town appropriated the sum of $5,000 for street sprinkling and treatment for the prevention of dust. In addition to this amount the Highway Department was obliged to draw upon its appropriation to the extent of $2,795.85 to do the necessary amount of work.
Davis Avenue was constructed from the top of the hill to Orient Avenue. Paved gutters were put in on both sides; the cost of this work being $629.83.
Eight streets were accepted by the Town at its March meeting in 1915 and have been constructed at a total cost of $9,483.23. The Board advertised for bids for a portion of this work and received replies from five reputable contractors. None of the bids were accepted, as the Board considered them too high, and it was decided that the work be completed with the town equipment. It is gratifying to be able to state that this work was completed for less money than the offer of the lowest bidder and that the labor was performed by town employees who thus were benefited to the extent of several thousand dollars.
In 1914, believing that a second steam roller would be ad- vantageous and in the end a decided economy, one was hired from the Buffalo Steam Roller Company at a rental of $800 for the season, with the understanding that if same were this year purchased by the Town, the $800 would be considered as partial payment upon the purchase price which was to be $3,600. This
379
REPORT OF BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
year the roller, weighing twelve tons, was purchased and the balance of $2,800 paid for same.
Fourteen thousand dollars were appropriated this year towards the construction of Summer Street Extension and work was started in the spring by clearing and staking out the roadway and the construction of storm drains and culverts alongside of and under the street. In August, in response to an advertise- ment of the Board, thirteen contractors entered bids for sub- grading a portion of Summer Street Extension, from Forest Street to the Lexington line. The bid of Francis J. Mague of West Newton, being the lowest, was accepted. In September the Board advertised for bids on the section from Brattle Street to Forest Street. Mr. Mague was again the lowest bidder of nine contractors by $1,090; therefore he was awarded the contract.
The way the work has been handled by the contractor has resulted in many delays. The Board has extended the time of completion of the contract on section one to January 8, 1916, and on section two to December 31, 1915. The indications are that the work will not be completed within the given time and the Town may be forced to look to his bondsmen to complete the contract.
There was appropriated $3,640 for the construction of a storm drain from Highland Avenue Easterly in Massachusetts Avenue to a point beyond the Easterly end of the new High School Building and thence through a 36-inch pipe beneath the High School lawn to an outlet into Mill Brook. The cost of this work was $3,633.63. This gives a storm drain outlet sufficiently large, it is believed, to take care of all development that may in the future come on that section between Bartlett Avenue and Highland Avenue.
The total cost of maintaining the stable teams for the year 1915 was $7,024.82, the average cost of maintenance per working day being $1.75 per horse.
The Board has charged the Health Department for use of a horse $1.55 per day, these horses having cost the Highway Department $1.75 per day, a loss of twenty cents per day has resulted. As the Health Department used the equivalent of one horse for 1900 days, the loss to the Highway Department was $380 for the year.

SEWER DIVISION.
The demand for sewers is increasing rapidly and the time has arrived at which the cost of sewers required is greater than can be paid for out of the sewer assessments collected the previous year. Therefore the Board recommends that bonds be issued for the extension of the sewerage system. The Board further believes that the construction of sewers this year is imperative to take care of Sylvia Street, Hibbert Street, Lancaster Road and adjacent streets, also in the area east of Mystic Street and south of Fairview Avenue, and that the cost of this construction be paid for from the sale of bonds. There are other districts in the Town which will require extensions in the near future.
Reference to Tables 4 and 5 will show the details of construction and maintenance for 1915.
Six thousand, five hundred and ten feet of main sewer were laid at a total cost of $7,368.91.
