In closing, the eminent needs of the library, which have become increasingly apparent, should be mentioned. To carry on the splendid educational program of the Town, the Public Library must do its part. To do this an addition should be built which would provide a room of proper size for our young people and a hall where lectures, exhibits, story hours, and civic and educational groups may meet. This overcrowding of the Children's Room forces many boys and girls who should be under the supervision of the Children's Librarian into the adult department, where they are lost and where they are made to feel very unwelcome by adult readers, due to the crowded condition in the reading room. The citizens of Arling- ton who have had the vision to build up the present educa- tional system with its fine schools and its library will, I feel sure, not fail to enable the library to keep pace with the grow- ing Town and fulfill its greatest possibilities.


GIFTS


The library has been the grateful recipient of $500 for the purchase of children's books, several groups of technical books and popular novels from interested friends. During

ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT


the summer months the rooms were made attractive by gifts of flowers.


Knowing how completely public opinion is based on news- paper articles about books, service, and organization, the library is thankful to the Arlington Advocate for the generous space it has given to library items and book lists.


I am grateful to the staff for their loyalty and co-operation in carrying on the work, for on the efficient performance of their duty depends the credit for the operation of the library.


To you as Trustees I wish to express my sincere thanks and appreciation for the interest you have shown in the ad- ministration of the library and in all its activities. Your sym- pathy and encouragement in our work have made this a very satisfactory year.


Respectfully submitted,


(MRS.) LUCINDA F. SPOFFORD, Librarian.

TOWN ENGINEER'S REPORT


To the Honorable Joint Board of Selectmen and Board of Public Works.


Gentlemen:


I respectfully submit my report as Town Engineer for the year ending December 31, 1928.


As has been customary, this department is required to render services to all Town departments when required. We have, during the year, performed such services when called upon, and we have been exceptionally busy.


I will not attempt to enumerate the many and detailed accomplishments during the past year, but will review only in a general way what has been done by this branch.


All necessary estimates on construction work have been made. Numerous lines and grades have been given for street, sidewalk, sewer, and drain construction.


Record plans were made of all new streets laid out, and all sewer, water, and drains laid; also all assessments were furnished for sidewalk, curb, sewer, and street assessments.


Several studies were made in connection with the laying out of undeveloped sections, namely, Jason Heights, Winn Farm, and Hartford development. The Board of Survey plans of above, with others, were carefully verified and filed.


I feel deeply grateful to my assistants and all others who have given their help and hearty co-operation through- out the year, and it has been a pleasure working under such ideal conditions.


Annexed to this report is a table of general statistics pertaining to the Town, and a list of the public and private streets.


Respectfully submitted,


JAMES M. KEANE, Town Engineer.
