REPORT OF SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Thomas E. Rush
Superintendent of Schoolls
My Dear Mr. Rush,
The following is my report for the past year:
Total number of children examined 312
Number of children with major defects 74
Number of major defects 89
Number of new defects 56
Number of irremediable defects
14
Percent of major defects corrected during the last year 57%
Number of children taken home ill 113 .
Perhaps the above figures are of little significance to most people but to those concerned with the health of the school child they are of great importance. Not only do we note an increase in the school population but also in the number of physical defects which have been corrected.
We want to have strong, healthy men and women for tomorrow. Therefore it is necessary to do everything within our power to attain our goal. This can best be accomplished by learning the importance of healthful living and living it!
At this time it is more important than ever for all of us to share this responsibility. The teachers under the kindly guidance of Mr. Rogean are cooperating with all the health services of the school. Respectfully submitted, CATHERINE A. ROE

REPORT OF THE SELECTMEN
The Selectmen, in summarizing the events of 1942, briefly list below those of evident interest to the citizens of Norwell. In the early part of the year the Town of Norwell, through the generosity of the American Legion, Lowell Post, 192, was presented with an ambulance for the use of the towns- people. To date we have had occasion to use and welcome the addition of this service for the citizens of Norwell, and at this time publicly extend our acceptance of and thanks for the Legion's most generous gift.
In an endeavor to conserve the materials necessary to the war effort, the Federal Government early in January requested through the State that a committee be appointed and a local board organized in every city and town to administer rationing. In accordance with instructions a committee of three was suggested to and approved by the State Board, the local board to be controlled by the State under the direction of the Federal Government. It is interesting to note that although of vital interest to the citizens of Norwell, the local board is responsible entirely to the State and Federal authorities and does not in any way come under town government super- vision.
A Board of Appeal on the Zoning Laws was appointed in May, with Mr. Humphrey Turner as Chairman. The Zoning Laws as accepted and approved by the Attorney General appear in the Town Clerk's report.
Joseph F. Merritt who, having faithfully served the Town of Norwell and its citizens for forty years, retired from the Office of Town Clerk on June 1st. Mrs. Nellie L. Sparrell was appointed to fill his unexpired term. In behalf of all department heads and the Norwell citizens in general, we extend to you, Joseph F. Merritt, our sincere appreciation of your long and faithful service.
In July, Edward B. Haskins resigned as Registrar of Voters, and William O. Henderson was appointed to fill the unexpired term.
Due to unforeseen expenses it was necessary to draw heavily on the Incidental Account, which resulted in over drawing of the sum appropriated. The addition of a temporary partition to house the Rationing Board, neces- sary equipment to outfit the town ambulance, and costs in connection with the Zoning By-Laws, all combined to quickly reduce the Incidental Account, and it was necessary to transfer from the Reserve Fund.
For the duration of the war there will be no further Chapter 90 Con- struction work on the highways, and Chapter 90 Maintenance is still only a probability, depending entirely on the legislature voting sufficient money for this work. This is also true in connection with Chapter 81 work.
The town dump has been well cleared and is in good condition for the needs of the townspeople.
We wish to express our appreciation of the splendid cooperation of all the department heads during the past year, of the Advisory Board, Civilian
