Police Department
The Board had the unpleasant duty of removing two police officers and suspending another during the year. The cases were carried through the courts and the Board was sustained in its decisions in all cases. On July 24, 1941 Arthur M. Curtin and Joseph M. Green, Re- serve Officers, were appointed to the vacancies on the regular force.
At a Special Town Meeting held December 1st, 1941 it was voted on recommendation of the Selectmen, to abolish the Reserve Police Force. The Board recommends that inasmuch as the three remaining officers on the Reserve Force are doing and have done for several years the work of a regular police officer that they be placed on the Regular Force at once.
#Deceased.
105
Following the custom established several years ago a new cruising car was purchased to take the place of the one which was two years old.
Ambulance
A charge for the use of the ambulance became effective on March 1, 1941. Considerable reduction in the number of calls has been made over a like period in the preceding year. An amount of $257.00 has. been turned back to t. e Treasurer for the use of the ambulance. This reduction in the number of calls greatly reduces the time taken out of the work of the police officers and allows them to perform their reguhir duties with less interruption.
Fire Department
Al equipment is in excellent condition and no requests for addi- tional apparatus are contemplated.
Serious consideration must be given by the Town to providing two regular firemen who will be assigned as permanent men to Engine 2 on Woburn Street.
Tree and Moth Departments
Owing to the several home development projects in the Town, a greater demand than usual has been made for shade trees.
The Tree and Moth Departments have been aided materially the past year by the W. P. A. in the work of tree surgery and moth ex- termination.
Traffic and Parking
Complaints are still being received in regard to speeding throughout the Town. The police officers have been active but with the large area to cover and the limited number of officers available, especially in the morning hours when the officers are protecting the school children, the situation is not in hand as well as the Board would desire. Resi- dents of the Town could help the situation materially by cutting down their own speed.
The parking situation still remains unsatisfactory. The Board is studying a proposition placed before them by the Reading Board of Trade of providing a parking space in back of the stores on the west side of Main Street.
W. P. A.
The Town has received much benefit through the many W. P. A. projects carried on throughout the year. The largest project under- taken was the drainage on the east side of the town.
106
One of the outstanding projects planned for the year 1942 is that of the completion of Forest Glen Cemetery. When the southerly section is completed the Catholic Church is to request the Town for a section of this area. This will mean immediate and additional revenue to the Town.
Civilian Defense
With the Pearl Harbor disaster of December 7, 1941, the defense program took on a new significance. As has always been the case in community affairs Reading is among the forerunners and now can boast of over one thousand in its organization.
The divisions are somewhat as follows with more enlistments all the while.
Auxiliary Police 100, Auxiliary Firemen 50, Women's Defense Corps 250, Rir Raid Wardens 325, Boy Scouts 125, Airplane Observers 110. Health Units 65, Service, Supplies and Planning 50, Public Works 65, Public Utilities 65, and Gas Decontamination and Rescue Parties 100.
Most of these are trained or being trained and the main problem now is to co-ordinate the various groups and practice air raid alarms are to be held.
To carry on this program $8,280.00 was appropriated on December 29, 1941 at a Special Town Meeting, and the various budgets are being spent under the supervision of your Board.
Town Forest
On November 21, 1941 the Town Forest suffered a severe fire and about 35,000 trees were lost. Many of these trees were the first ones planted at the Forest eleven years ago.
The Town employs one man in the Town Forest most of the ye. 1 and he has done excellent work in preserving the trees.
The Board wishes to express its appreciation for the co-operation of all Boards, officials and employees during the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
CARL W. GOODRIDGE, Chairman ROBERT E. FOWLE, Secretary HERBERT K. MILLER

MIDDLESEX COUNTY EXTENSION SERVICE
The following is a report of some of the activities of the Middlesex County Extension Service in the Town of Reading during the year 1941 :
General information was sent out to those people interested in gardening and fruit growing. A talk was given before the Reading Garden Club. Through the Metropolitan Reading Poultry Association, assistance was given to the poultrymen of the town in planning their programs, in addition, many farm visits were made to assist individual poultrymen on disease control, brooding and rearing chicks and poultry farm management. Mr. William Johnson has been President of the Poultry Association and he has also served on the County Poultry Committee.
A series of meetings of interest to homemakers was held on food preservation, clothing construction and food preparation. Single meet- ings were also held on better home lighting and Christmas gift sugges- tions.
Five boys and girls 4-H clubs were organized during the year, with a total enrollment of thirty-four. Mrs. Howard Perley served as chairman, with Miss Annie Poock and Mrs. Henry W. Camp making up the committee. Local leaders were: Mrs. John O'Brien, Mrs. Lois Connor, Mrs. Walter Connor, Mrs. H. Perley, Miss Hermeana Hop- kins, Mr. Alvin Call and Mr. John McKinnon. A boys' club, known as the Doughboys, won first prize at the identification contest at the Wakefield Rally of club members. In the spring, an exhibit was held at which time several girls received blue ribbons for the dresses they had made. Eleanor McLeod won a blue ribbon in the county dress contest. Prizes donated by the Reading Garden Club and Mr. Arthur F. Hopkins for excellent boys' and girls' gardens were awarded to Shir- ley Magison, Lawrence Poole and Ann David.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of the Town of Reading, the School Committee submits its annual report :
This past year we were able to maintain our schools on our budget without adding any new equipment beyond necessities and to return to the Town $10.55. For several years, W. P. A. work has helped ma- terially in our expenses for upkeep, but this year no W. P. A. help was available.
Now that we are at war, we may expect a decrease in our High School attendance, although our Elementary schools continue to show an increase. We may also expect that there will be heavier demands on our teaching staff and a larger use of many of our schools for the various defense and Government needs in relation to war projects.
As you will see in the Superintendent's Report, we are taking all measures possible for the safety and protection of the children during any emergency.
With all the extra activities necessary at this time, we are still maintaining our policy of including in our budget only the items needed for our usual maintenance. With an advance in price on all supplies, it is natural that our budget will show some increase. Also, there is the need of temporary adjustment in pay to take care of the present increase in living costs.
On March 12, Dr. Charles R. Wakeling resigned from the Commit- tee, after serving the schools for eight years. On April 21, Ralph W. Allen was appointed to fill the vacancy. The terms of Ralph W. Allen and Miss Margaret Canty expire this year.
