ANNUAL REPORT OF THE FOREST FIRE WARDEN
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
The Forest Fire Department had a very quiet year with the ex- ception of one bad forest fire in South Franklin last spring which re- quired outside help.
We responded to 49 brush fire calls which included mutual to the towns of Norfolk and Sharon.
For the year 1950 I recommend $1800.

FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
BOARD OF WATER AND SEWER COMMISSIONERS
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
This Department has had a very active year between water mains and new services, etc. While it is true the water mains were let out by Contract, a lot of odds and ends have to be done by this Department such as making connections, shutting off water, putting in the new ser- vices, etc.
We have laid approximately 91/4 miles of water mains ranging from 10" pipe to 2" pipe. Lincoln St. was connected, with that section that has been supplied by the Town of Medway now supplied by the Town of Franklin, with better service than they previously enjoyed.
Lincoln Street
2600 feet 8" pipe
Elm Street
3200 feet 8" pipe
Partridge Street 5300 feet 8" pipe
Maple Street 8535 feet 8" pipe
This section now forms a loop from Lincoln Street, through Partridge Street, through Maple Street back to Main Street. At the time being this will not increase the pressure or flow too much, until we connect through Partridge Street on the Pond Street 8" pipe.
27
Plain Street-2323 feet of 6" pipe-where we will be able to make another emergency connection with the Town of Bellingham.
Pond Street from Oak Street to West Central Street a distance of 5335 feet-which makes another important connection in case of fire at the further end of the Bellingham line.
Grove Street from Whitney's Mill through to Rondeau's farm near the railroad tracks a distance of 10,000 feet with a future connection being made on Washington Street. This will make an important cir- cuit later when a tank and booster station is developed in this section.
A further extension was made on Prospect Street, a distance of 1350 feet.
Twenty-five hundred feet was laid on Forest Street as far as Robin- son's land.
A further extension of 4800 feet was made on Pleasant Street as far as Miller Street; this is an important development which some day will extend through Chestnut Street to East Central Street.
Miller Street-610 feet which some day will be carried through to Short Street, thus making a connection with Brook Street to Lincoln Street back to Town-making another circuit.
Brook Street Extension-700 feet of 6" pipe.
Daniels Street Extension-1314 feet of 6" pipe.
Also on Concord Street 300 feet of 2" C. L. Pipe was laid by the department.
The new development on Sherman Ave., and Pine Ridge Road- a total of 1700 feet of 6" pipe was laid.

Hydrant Replacements
During the year 3 hydrants were replaced due to breakage or defects.
Last spring all dead ends were flushed but this fall we flushed only what was necessary because of the extra service work.
`New Services
This has been a very good year for new services in both new and old buildings. A total of 113 new services were made during the year. This has also been a good year for private development, with 5 new houses on Concord Street, Sherman Avenue-3, Pine Ridge Road-3.
Renewals. During the year we made 11 renewals of water services.
Meters
One hundred new meters were bought and replaced those that have been stopped for 2 or more years. We need 150 new meters for new ser- vices that are already installed.
Water Supply
Our gravel packed wells, while showing a little effect of weather, have stood up well in spite of the increased demand. We have a third well site north of Beaver Pond which can be put in use in the near future if, and when, the demand calls for it.
Water Tanks
Both water tanks were painted both inside and outside during the year, and in spite of the fact that they have not been done for several years, they were not too dirty on the inside.

1951 Sewer Report
The low lift station at Milliken Avenue has been operating satis- factorily except when people become careless and allow rags to get into the sewer, which a good many times plugs the pump and this blows the fuses. The electric light company has to be called and we have to take down the pump. This has happened some 15 times this past year.
New Sewer Mains
A new sewer was put in from Main Street through private property to Orchard, Garden and Squire Streets, a distance of 1350 feet of 8" vitrified pipe, connecting eleven houses.
Main Line Sewers
We are now beginning to have quite a bit of trouble with the main lines due to tree roots which entered the joints through the cement and have kept growing, in some cases, up to the size of 2" or more. If it was not for the new sewer cleaning machine purchased by the Town in 1950, we would have had to dig up several main sewers and take out a length of pipe to get the obstruction removed. We have cleaned as many as 10 main sewers this year.
Trickling Filters
These filters are doing a very good job and we will soon have in- creased sewage from the factories as the State Department of Public
31
Health will not allow anyone to empty sewage into Mine Brook unless it is treated first, therefore, sewage must go through our trickling filters before emptying into Mine Brook.
This rule of the State Department also brings about some changes for us; namely, that all water going into Mine Brook must be treated with chlorine first during the summer months, April to October.
There has been a total of 145,964,600 gallons of sewage pass through the trickling filters to Mine Brook.

Traffic
Motor vehicle traffic during the year was extremely heavy. Enforce- ment coupled with educational programs met with approval by the general public.
We feel by continued driver educational methods we will be able to produce more efficient driving.
During the year we were charged with a very unfortunate motor vehicle accident resulting in a fatality.
The plan to continue posting our roads governing traffic was further advanced. This was partially completed by re-conditiong the older signs and placing additional signs where needed.
Action due to enforcement was the cause of many operators losing their rights to operate. The spot check system was again employed throughout the year.
Our traffic officers performed their duties excellently. They were responsible for foot traffic as well as vehicular traffic, keeping the pedestrians and motorists constantly on the alert concerning their conduct.
36
Police Communications System
The radio system is very satisfactory. Three other larger com- munities have joined our frequency, enabling our department to oper- ate in a wider scope. From time to time we will have to make improved changes, however.
Motorized Equipment
Our police car has travelled many miles and it is in pretty good condition. However, it is a good policy to trade cars yearly and I so recommend.
I take this opportunity to extend to all members of the police department my appreciation for their loyal and trusting cooperation.
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, and heads of Town Depart- ments, I extend my gratitude for their kind cooperation.
To the Townspeople, I am most thankful for their interest in law enforcement and keeping our community free of criminal offenses. Without their interest it would be quite difficult.

REPORT OF THE FRANKLIN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION

Magazines donated-Catholic Digest, Christian Science Monitor, Our Dumb Animals, Franklin Sentinel, Opportunity, Specialty Sales- man.
The Ray Memorial Association, which owns the library building as well as its fine furnishings, has always assumed the responsibility of their maintenance. For nearly 40 years, they also paid for heat, janitor service and for the children's librarian. Franklin citizens have never paid rent for the use of this beautiful building. A glance at the large mahogany tables in the reading room which have been badly mutilated with names and initials of thoughtless boys and girls show how little some people appreciate the use of this fine room. In May, 1950, the R. M. A. had one of the tables refinished at considerable expense; less than two weeks later it had been cut and dug with various initials. It has now become necessary to have police protection at the expense of the town, for both the Ray Memorial Association and the Franklin Library Association feel that the library must be used for reading, studying or browsing-not for gang meetings and rowdyism.
The Children's Room, which offers books to boys and girls up to high school age has never had any problems in behavior. It is one of the most attractive in the state, and many out of town visitors come to see and admire it. The Aldenettes, a branch of the Alden Club, who have been so generous in their donations to this room, continue to hold Story Hours for the small boys and girls all through the winter months.
From October to April, classes in Practical Arts for adults are held in the Lecture Room and a visit to any session will show an enthusiastic group of men and women working at rug making, painting on canvas, tin or wood, or stenciling a piece of furniture.
Request for Appropriation From the Town of Franklin
With the library building used by more people every year, plus a growing circulation, the cost for heat, light, salaries, books and supplies grows increasingly heavy. These expenses are met by the Franklin Library Association which should be granted a large enough sum of money to maintain the library at its present state of efficiency. The Association, therefore, respectfully requests that the sum of $8,000 plus the dog tax be granted to them for the 1951 maintenance of the library.
Respectfully submitted,
HELEN H. FEELEY

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DOG OFFICER
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:
I hereby submit my report relative to dogs in the Town of Franklin during the calendar year of 1950:
Number of dogs licensed 620
Number of kennels licensed
13
Number of stray dogs killed and buried
62
Number of dogs killed by cars 39
Number of dogs struck by cars and destroyed 25
Number of dogs killed by request of owners 14
Number of dogs restrained 6
I have answered 377 complaints pertaining to dogs. This is an in- crease of 26 over the year 1949. There was a decrease in the killing of livestock and poultry by dogs during the past year.
It is important that all owners of dogs license these animals in their custody which are three months old or reach the age of three months during the year.
Attention is hereby called to the following extract from Chapter 136A as amended by Chapter 111 Acts of 1943 of the General Laws.
"The owner or keeper of a licensed dog shall cause it to wear around its neck or body a collar or harness of leather or other suitable material, to which shall be securely attached a tag in the form pre- scribed by the director, and upon which shall appear the license number, the name of the town issuing such license and the year of issue."

ANNUAL REPORT OF BICYCLE REGISTRATION

I hereby respectfully submit the bicycle registration report for the year ending December 31, 1950.

$19.00
During the year we were able to control the bicycle traffic much better due to instructions given each bicyclist. At some of the main schools the junior bicycle traffic squad was formed, this to added to the education of safe riding. Their duty was to check double riding.
Each year we find new riders have joined the present number of riders thereby adding more traffic with bicycles.
We are attempting constantly to educate these bicyclists of the dangers and hazardous traffic conditions.
Parents by their continued cooperation will definitely aid in our effort.
45
For necessary expenses for the year 1951 I recommend the sum of $25.00.

Town Mapping Project
Final plans of the area bounded by Cottage Street, Union Street, King and East Central Streets are in the process of completion.
Survey data covering the northerly portion of the Town to the Medway line has been filed with the Planning Board. Surveys are now in progress connecting street bounds with the Massachusetts Coordinate System. Town boundary corners have been computed on the Massa- chusetts Coordinate System and positions of all Geodetic points within the limits of the Town have been placed with the Board.
The plotting of all well marked streets such as State and County ways and such Town laid out streets, that have been properly bounded, is now in progress; these streets being plotted on the Sectional sheets covering the town.
It is the hope of the Board that as soon as all streets within the Town have been plotted on the Sectional sheets that work can begin on the task of plotting property lines for assessing purposes.
