REPORT OF SELECTMEN
Jan. 1, 1927.
To the Citizens of the Town of Lynnfield :
The Selectmen have endeavored to keep the Town's buildings and property protected and insured to the best of their knowledge and ability for the year ending Dec. 31, 1926.
They have held numerous public hearings for licenses or permits for gasoline and roadside stands. The requests for these permits be- came to be an annoyance to the citizens of the Town and created a hardship for them to assemble and voice their protests against such propositions that the Selectmen decided, in July, not to give out any more applications for such for the remainder of the year.
After giving the question of purchasing a new fire truck for the Town much consideration and investigation, the Selectmen were able to obtain a wonderful buy for the same in a Dodge-Graham truck. This new truck is to be housed in Chemical No. 2 House and to be used as a hose wagon, and should prove a good addition to the outfit the Town already has.
In November, the Selectmen decided to remodel and equip the road roller for a snow plowing outfit. This apparatus has proven a success beyond all question of doubt.
Throughout the year we have used every means available trying to get assistance on our highways from the County and Public Works Dept. of the State.
-
The County Commissioners did agree to help the Town of Lynnfield, but the Public Works Dept. has repeatedly refused to assist. In January, 1927, the Selectmen, Town Counsel, State Senator Haley and Representa- tive Pratt held a conference with Mr. Williams at the State House, en- deavoring to persuade him to give Lynnfield a little consideration. We hope our efforts will be of some benefit to the Town in the future.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANK C. NEWHALL, Chairman, JOSEPH F. SMITH, Secretary, RALPH E. COX,

REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :
Gentlemen :- I herewith submit my report of the Highway Department for the year ending December 31, 1926.
The large expenditure of $2,800 for the removal of snow for the . first few months of 1926 in comparison with $700 the year before left the Department with insufficient funds to carry on work which had been planned.
Also it was necessary to apply tarvia to some of the main streets and side streets, that it was not necessary to treat the year before.
A few streets had practically nothing done to them but the holes filled with patching material.
Essex Street, which was very rough and full of holes in the spring, was scarified and graded with gravel and then rolled. One application of oil was applied to this street. This kept the street in good condition. for a few months. By the end of the summer it was full of holes and rough again for lack of funds to have given it two applications of oil at the beginning when it was first repaired.
Walnut Street was scarified from Summer Street to Salem Street. A stretch was graded near the entrance to the golf links which has been always very muddy in the spring. This street was given two appli- cations of oil. One of light oil as a binder and the other of heavy oil for a surface. I am in hopes this street will come through the winter and spring in very good condition and with a treatment of tarvia in the spring ought to be all that will be necessary for two years.
This coming year, Walnut Street from Salem Street to the Saugus line, must be rebuilt, as it is in a dangerous condition at the present time. .
The streets in the South part of the Town are in very good condition except one of the newer ones, Fairview Avenue, which will have to have . some grading done on it.
The people living in the north part of the Town on Chestnut Street and Lowell Street are very much in need of having their streets rebuilt. Both of these had practically nothing done on them this past year. I would recommend that funds be provided to rebuild these two streets.
Many of the guard rails about Town have decayed and should be re- placed this coming year.
Work also should be done on resurfacing some of the sidewalks.
Work that I know which should be done in 1927 to make traveling : safe and comfortable over our streets is going to call for a larger appro- priation for this Department than has been appropriated lately for this Department.
I hope that the people of Lynnfield, when they vote in March on the .

One of our citizens, Mr. K. Tornberg, manager of the New England Telephone Exchange at Lynnfield Centre, has given much time and study in developing a map of Lynnfield Centre.
The Selectinen felt that many persons would be interested in such a map. Through the courtesy of Mr. Tornberg we were given the privilege of having the original, a 36" x 48" map, reduced to permit publishing in the Town Report.
Persons desiring the large size may obtain one from the originator.

REPORT OF FIRE DEPARTMENT
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen :-
Gentlemen :- I herewith submit my report of the Fire Department work for the year ending Dec. 31, 1926. The Department has been called upon to answer over sixty alarms; and as usual, quite a number of false alarms.
I wish to thank the citizens for their splendid support of the articles in the Warrant this year, calling for very extraordinary expenditures for the Department, and I take this opportunity to personally thank them. As a result of the new equipment in House No. 2, the insurance rate, in the water district, has been reduced, more than 50 per cent.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM W. MOXHAM, Chief.

REPORT OF TREE WARDEN
To the Citizens of the Town of Lynnfield :
At the last annual Town Meeting an appropriation of $250.00 was made to take care of the shade trees. Most of this appropriation was used to remove dead trees.
Owing to such a small appropriation it is impossible to do the neces- sary work to be done. There are a great many dead trees and branches along the highway which are very dangerous to the public and should be removed.
It must be taken into consideration that large trees must be taken down part by part, that there may be no damage caused to wires, poles or other private property.
I hope the appropriation will be much larger this coming year so the work can de done properly.
Respectfully submitted,
LYMAN H. TWISS, Tree Warden.

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS .
To the Citizens of the Town of Lynnfield :
The grass on the occupied parts of the cemeteries has been mown once, and the brush and other wild growth have been cleaned up and burned on unoccupied parts. ] It is really important that grass on occupied parts should have a second cutting, but with the other necessary work our appropriations are inadequate. There are two avenues running almost the entire length of Forest Hill Cemetery, which very much need to be surfaced with good gravel. The lots on these avenues are largely owned and occupied. In the days of horse-drawn carriages the grass avenues were satisfactory, but they will not hold up the present motor conveyances. This gravel surfacing whenever it is done will require an extra appropriation. An unusual amount of work has been done in Willow Cemetery the past year. The avenues have had the loam removed and have been partially resurfaced with gravel. The loam removed has been used for filling unused lots.
Respectfully submitted,
For the Cemetery Commission. SETH H. RUSSELL,
