DOG OFFICER


When things are rough, in storms, hurricanes, etc., we find that residents expect a great deal from such organizations as Civil De- fense and our object is to be as capable as possible with a limited budget and a volunteer organization. If we were to be subjected to a war-caused disaster our problems would be overwhelming. We count on continued backing from the residents so that when "the chips are down" we can do as good a job as possible.

CONSERVATION COMMISSION


Report of the Conservation Commission


To the Citizens of Norwell :


At the Annual Town Meeting in March, 1962, the Town voted to accept a new Zoning By-Law establishing a Conservation District for the tidal marshes on the North River. Similar Articles were adopt- ed in Scituate and Marshfield. We believe this action not only demon- strated the public concern for conservation but illustrates how such measures can protect the immediate interests of the public today, as well as for years to come.


This year, at the Annual Town Meeting, your Commission is asking for an appropriation to be made from the Conservation Fund to purchase some twenty-five acres of marsh and upland at King's Landing on the North River. It is hoped that a boat launching ramp and swimming area will be developed on the River, with parking and camping facilities provided on the upland acres. It is planned that use of this area would be restricted to Norwell residents only. State funds are available to defray 50% of the cost of purchase and devel- opment of this property.


For the past two years the town has wisely voted to appropriate the maximum amount allowed by the State ( one-twentieth of one per cent of the town's Real Estate valuation ) for the Conservation Fund. Once again we are asking for the maximum and hope that the vo- ters will understand why it is to the town's advantage to appropriate this amount every year. For example, if the town had not voted the maximum amount for the past two years, we would not be in a posi- tion to ask the State for a fifty per cent return on the money to pur- chase and develop the property at King's Landing.


While final disposition of the Cohasset Naval Annex has not yet been made, we are confident this area will be taken over by the State Fish and Wildlife Department. This would mean that the 540 acres of Norwell land lying in the Annex at present would become part of a 3200 acre public wildlife preserve. Members of the Com- mission have attended numerous meetings throughout the year with representatives from Hingham, Cohasset and Scituate, relative to the disposition of the Annex. We are unanimously in favor of such a preserve and are actively supporting the Fish and Wildlife Depart- ment's proposal.


Mr. and Mrs. John Bond of Old Oaken Bucket Road have of- fered to give to the town a strip of land along First Herring Brook for Conservation purposes. The Commission has arranged for the


137


CONSERVATION COMMISSION


land to be surveyed and this strip will soon become the first part of a hoped-for green belt all along this brook as it flows through Nor- well.


In the spring, the Commission plans to put up a picnic table, benches and trash containers on the small plot of land between Jacob's Pond and the Little League Field.


For one reason or another, the original seven-member Com- mission was reduced to two members earlier in the year, but it is now at full strength. We would welcome any suggestions or com- ments from interested citizens.

PLYMOUTH COUNTY AID TO AGRICULTURE ( Plymouth County Extension Service ) BY Robert B. Ewing, County Agent-Manager


A review of last year's report would show that an attempt was made to answer the question - "What is the Extension Service?" The report stated that in 1914 Congress passed the Smith-Lever Law which clearly stated, that the Extention Service shall "aid in diffusing among the people of the United States useful and practical information on subjects relating to Agriculture and Home Economics, and to encourage the application of the same".


The Extension Service has always been known as "the educa- tional arm" of the United States Department of Agriculture and the title "Cooperative Extension Service" is used because Federal, State and County Governments cooperate in furnishing this service to the citizens of Plymouth County. Each year agreements are written between the United States Department of Agriculture, the University of Massachusetts, and Plymouth County.


Since 1915, when the Plymouth County Extension Service was organized and established, educational information pertaining to Agriculture, Home Economics and 4-H Club Work has been given free to citizens of Plymouth County.


Although methods may change with the times, the basic job of the Extension Service remains the same, and that is, as the 1914 Law states, "to aid in diffusing among the people of the United States useful and practical information on the subjects relating to Agriculture and Home Economics and to encourage the applica- tion of the same".


The Extension Service office is located in the Court House, Brockton, Mass. and is staffed by agents who conduct programs in Agriculture, Home Economics and 4-H Club Work by furnish- ing educational information through farm and home visits, let- ters, newspaper articles, radio talks, meetings, office visits and telephone calls.


Federal, State and County government funds are used for con- ducting the Extension Service programs. Along with these funds, most towns in Plymouth County make an annual appropriation which is used for the general expenditures of the Plymouth County Extension Service. Town Directors are appointed in those towns where an appropriation is made. These Town Directors are unpaid volun- teer leaders who serve as the Extension Service representative in their respective town.


139


All citizens should make full use of their Extension Service as it is supported by the Federal, State and County Governments. It should be remembered that while the Extension Service furnishes the infor- mation it is up to the individual citizen who receives this information to decide how it can be used to best advantage.


Requests for information can be directed to the Plymouth County Extension Service, Court House, Brockton, Massachusetts.


The Board of Trustees, appointed by the Plymouth County Com- missioners, administer the Plymouth County Extension Service pro- gram and is composed of the following members :


MR. JOHN PRENTICE, Plymouth, Chairman MRS. ELVA BENT SWARTZ, Brockton MR. LEWIS BILLINGS, Plympton MRS. MABEL CHANDLER, Duxbury MR. JOHN DUFFY, Halifax


MRS. GLADYS GIBBS, Hanover MR. ROBERT HAMMOND, Wareham

The program from January 1 to December 31, 1962, has been as follows :


1. Home Nursing Care.


2. Well Child Clinics.


3. Hospital beds, crutches, wheelchairs, commodes, etc., made available to all the townspeople. No charge made for sickroom supplies.

6. Charity.


7. Award of the Annual Nursing Scholarship in 1962 to Miss Sandra Erickson, who is training at the Children's Hospital in Bos- ton, Mass.


Home Nursing Care is ably staffed by Miss Catherine Roe and Mrs. Ruth Lantery. Mrs. Doris L. Bartels resigned from Home Nursing work because she moved from Norwell. The board mem- bers feel very fortunate in having Mrs. Lantery take over the nuis- ing care during Miss Roe's vacation, sick leave and assisting in the more active weeks of school.


The Well Child Clinic meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 1:00 P.M. Appointments are necessary. For information and appointments call Mrs. Harold King, OLdfield 9-2804. Dr. Alice Butler, Pediatrician, is assisted by Mrs. Harold King and Mrs. Francis Dyer. Mrs. James Robertson is Chairman of Trans- portation. Do make use of our clinic.


The Annual Membership Drive with Mrs. Theodore Dyer, Chair- man, and Mrs. Harry L. Chase, Jr., Assistant Treasurer, in charge, brought a welcome response.


New equipment, both for the annual Rummage Sales and for sickroom needs, has been purchased. It includes one new, low hospi- tal bed with mattress and side bars, mattress covers, crutches, one bedside tray with reading rack and one trapeze which is a "pa- tient's helper. "


Gifts of many useful articles have been received, including one used wheelchair and a new wheelchair, new canes and a covered


144


VISITING NURSE ASSOCIATION


rubber cushion. All of these items are in almost constant use.


Four Board Members resigned this past year. They were Mrs. Philip Young, Mrs. Edward Keefe, Mrs. Thomas Barstow and Mrs. Ernest Haskins. Four new Members have been appointed to fill the vacancies until the Annual Meeting, when they will be voted in as regular members. They are Mrs. Gentry Clark, Mrs. Harry L. Chase, Jr., Mrs. Richard Gaudette and Mrs. James Robertson.


Extra retirement insurance for Miss Roe, and Mal-Practice In- surance, which will cover any nurse employed by the Visiting Nurse Association, has been acquired this year.


The officers and board members wish to thank all of the people who so generously contribute to our Rummage Sales and to the Annual Membership Drive. The amount of rummage material de- livered to the "old shop" at Sparrell's ahead of these dates is a great help.


The Annual Meeting and Tea will be held at the Parish House in Norwell Center on Wednesday, March 6, at 2:30 P.M. Mrs. W. Clarke Atwater will be the Tea Chairman. Our speaker will be Dr. Marion Wier. Her subject will be " Project Hope in Asia," with pic- tures of the voyage of the S.S. Hope. All are invited to attend.


The Treasurer's Report, which follows, shows the sources of in- come and expenditures.


Anyone in need of nursing care, call OLdfield 9-2342 before 9:00 A.M. or before 1:00 P.M. For hospital equipment, call OLd- field 9-2894.

REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN AND MOTH SUPERINTENDENT


To the Citizens of the Town of Norwen :


Wish to take this opportunity to submit the annual report of the Tree Warden and Moth Superintendent.


This year, as voted in the Annual Town Meeting, the Tree De- partment acquired a new truck. The truck was delivered in August and has worked very well in all respects. This truck is also used to plow snow under the supervision of the Highway Surveyor.


Seventy-five additional roadside trees were planted this year, ranging in size from small flowering species to the larger-growing types. There are plans for an increase in the planting program during the coming year.


Approximately fifty diseased Elms were removed from Norwell roadsides this year. Although control measures reduce the number of trees that are lost, there is no way to stop the infection of Dutch Elm Disease. Therefore, every Elm Tree in this area can succumb to this disease at any time.


147


TREE WARDEN AND MOTH SUPERINTENDENT


Mr. John Burns, who has worked for the Tree Department for twelve years, retired this year. His services in the past were very much appreciated, and the town has lost a faithful employee. We wish him well in his retirement.


The North River Gardeners did their annual project at Gaf- field Park this year. This consisted of clearing brush and remov- ing dead trees. This work resulted in establishing an excellent pine grove in the park. There are plans for several picnic tables to be placed nere. This is an excellent area for a family picnic, and is located in the section which is bounded of Forest Street, Forest Avenue and River Street. All residents of the town are invited to use this facility. The monies used for this work were furnished by the North River Gardeners.


In closing, I wish to thank the other town departments, all of which cooperated with the Tree Department.


Respectfully submitted,


WESLEY H. OSBORNE, JR. Tree Warden and Moth Superintendent

WATER COMMISSIONERS


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS


Board of Selectmen Norwell, Massachusetts


Gentlemen :


The following is the Water Board Report for the year 1962.


During the past year the Water System has functioned in a satis- factory manner.

Water pumped


90,000,000 Gals. 95,700,000 Gals.

*Does not include services installed by developers to unoccupied houses.


At the 1962 March Meeting the Town voted under Article 17 to install a water main on Old Oaken Bucket Road. The installa- tion proceeded with a minimum of expense, thus making it possible, with the use of new and retrieved pipe, to extend the new main be- yond the planned termination point. Additional homes that were in desperate need of water were therefore connected to the system. In accord with the Water Main Extension Report submitted to the 1958 Annual Town Meeting, the Town voted, under Article 18, at the 1962 meeting to install a water main on Norwell Avenue. This work is substantially completed and is the second step or section of a loop connection designed to connect the existing main in Norwell Center with the mains in Washington Street at the intersection of Grove Street.


This loop installation is needed to effect a two-pipe feeder system and to deliver a greater volume of water to the western area of the Town. To continue this project according to the yearly schedule as indicated in the Report, the Board is submitting an Article in the 1963 Warrant for the laying of a main on Grove Street.


149


WATER COMMISSIONERS


During the year approximately two thousand feet of water main was installed on Summer Street by a developer at no cost to the Town except for the cost of inspection and the furnishing of two hydrants. Such installations cut the general expansion cost and in- creases the area served by the system.


Testing for new water sources was continued during the year. This testing effort was for the most part conducted in the area north of Grove Street between Washington and Prospect Streets. Although additional testing is needed before a final determination can be made, it now appears that although there is a large water resource here, only the western section of the area contains additional potential water sources suitable for a public water system.


Also during the year a new well site north of Grove Street but remote from the existing Town well was tested and subsequently approved as a public water source by the Massachusetts Depart- ment of Public Health. The Board plans to submit an article at the coming meeting to ask for an appropriation to add to the exist- ing funds for the installation of equipment to put the new well into operation.


The pipe connecting a building with a street main is called a service connection. Such a connection is installed by the Town each time a building is connected to the system. Until the past year the excavation for this work was done by hired personnel and equip- ment. However, during much of the past year the recently purchased Highway Department's combination tractor loader and backhoe, operated by their personnel, was used, thus facilitating the work.


We wish to invite any interested townspeople to our weekly meet- ings.


The Board wishes to express its appreciation to other Town Boards and Personnel for the cooperation they have given this De- partment during the past year.


Respectfully submitted, JACOB LEE TURNER, Chairman EDWARD F. WALSH AUGUSTIN J. THIBODEAU Board of Water Commissioners

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS


During the past year further work has been done on the Equali- zation Program. Further study and evaluation of land values will be done.


As a note of interest indicating the increased amount of routine work in the Assessors' Office on Motor Vehicle business alone, the amount of Motor Vehicle Excise Tax assessed has increased yearly at the rate of 10"%.


On March 17, 1962 Mr. John L. Crowley was elected to the Board of Assessors. On May 19, 1962, Mr. W. Clarke Atwater, the then Chairman of the Board of Assessors, resigned due to other commitments. On June 4, 1962, the combined Boards of Assessors and Selectmen voted to appoint Mr. Stanley N. Baker to the office of Assessor until the next Annual Election. On August 4, 1962, Mr. John L. Crowley was elected Chairman of the Board of Assessors.


The Board of Assessors wish to thank the citizens of Norwell for their patience and cooperation.
