Through my activities in the inspection of Hawkers and Peddlers, and Transient Vendors the Town Treas- urer has received $350.00 from the Director of Stand- ards for licenses issued to hawkers and peddlers in the Town of Arlington.
As a result of inspections I found it necessary to prosecute eight cases. Seven were found guilty and fines amounting to $75.00 were imposed by the Court. One was found not guilty.
In addition to my regular duties, reweighings were made of coal for the school department of the Town of Arlington amounting to 44,600 lbs.
Respectfully submitted,
ALLAN E. COWIE, Sealer.

HIGHWAY DIVISION
During the year the Highway Department has, in addition to the regular maintenance work, resurfaced with a penetrated macadam surface, Highland Avenue, from Eastern Avenue to approximately one hundred feet north of Ottawa Road.
375
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
Massachusetts Avenue was reconstructed from Menotomy Road to Lowell Street (both sides) with a reinforced concrete pavement. In this project the Board was fortunate in obtaining State and County aid which enabled the Town to reconstruct three times the original amount of roadway planned, the State and County each paying one-third of the cost of construction.
This year $12,447.60 was spent on the cleaning of streets ; $14,406.54 on maintenance and repairing of street surfaces; $1,841.40 on repairs to Massachusetts Avenue, and $4,814.13 for surface treating with asphal- tic tar.
Six thousand, six hundred thirteen dollars and thirty-one cents was expended on the care and repair of Storm Drains and Catch Basins.
Four thousand, five hundred sixty-five dollars and fifty-two cents was expended on the maintenance of gravel sidewalks; and two thousand, thirty-three dol- lars and seventy-nine cents on the care and repair of permanent sidewalks.
