REPORT OF THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE


During the year a special effort has been made to determine settlement beginning and endings of a great many of the Town's cases. This has insured better collections and will be a benefit in the future.


The burden which was comparatively light during the first three- quarters of the year, has increased considerably in the last three months and while we have been able to pass part of this burden to Works Progress Administration Projects, in a good many cases it has not been possible.


Under the authority granted us at the last Town Meeting, it has become advisable, and the Board has transferred the sum of $425 for continuation of the work on North Street, Chapter 90. This money provided work for part of our Welfare cases.


It has also become necessary to assume part of the cost of materials on Works Progress Administration Projects, for the last month of the year. This was in part necessitated by the increase in quota which was granted us in November and December.


The following is a recapitulation of the families, and persons rep- resented, aided by the Welfare Department of this Town for the year 1937:

We are requesting at the Town Meeting, that a separate appropria- tion be set aside for Aid of Dependent Children cases, as reimburse- ments which are received from the Federal Government can be used by this Department as a current receipt.


We estimate $2,500.00, in addition to Federal Grants, will be needed to maintain this subdivision of the Board of Public Welfare.

REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS


To the Honorable Board of Selectmien:


Gentlemen:


As Park Commissioners we herewith submit the following:


The commons were mowed during the summer and raked in the fall as usual. We are sorry to report the grass sowed in the fall of 1936 was almost totally destroyed by the drouth of the past summer. This will be resowed in the early spring.


The flagpole was painted with two coats of aluminum.


We recommend an appropriation of $200.00 for 1938.


Yours respectfully,

REPORT OF AGENT FOR SUPPRESSION OF GYPSY AND BROWN TAIL MOTHS


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen:


As Local Superintendent for the Suppression of the Gypsy and Brown Tail Moths I submit the following:


I am sorry to report a very large increase of Gypsy moths. A thorough spraying of street trees bordering all badly infested wood- lands must be done in the summer of 1938 or they will surely be stripped.


The whole North section is very heavily infested with several bad spots in the Center and West. The South and East with scattered nests will be in the same condition in 1939 if not looked after. A scouting project was sent in in September but hasn't come through as yet. This is a very important part of the work for we can find and book the bad colonies for spraying and parasitizing.


The Tent caterpillar was very plentiful the past year but did not find any Brown Tail moths.


I would recommend an appropriation of $1,400.00.


Yours respectfully,


HARRIS M. BRIGGS,


Tree Warden.


33


REPORT OF FISH AND GAME WARDEN


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen :


As Fish and Game Warden the following report is submitted for the year ending December 31, 1937.


During the year fifteen complaints were received and investigated. A total of 482 hours of patrol work was done in Tewksbury.


1000 Brown Trout ranging from six to eight inches in length were placed in the Shawsheen River.


A number of Pheasants were also liberated in covers in Tewksbury.


Respectfully submitted,


CHARLES D. PHILLIPS,


Fish and Game Warden.


34


REPORT OF TREE WARDEN


To the Honorable Board of Selectmen:


Gentlemen:


As Tree Warden, I submit the following:


In the Spring of 1937 with plenty of rain our beautiful trees got a fine start with the finest foliage seen in years. This continued till June when a drought lasting several weeks took its toll and by the middle of July many started to shed their leaves. The Elm seemed to be affected more than other trees. This of course has left them in a weakened con- dition and they should be sprayed to supress the Elm Tree Beetle. Some feeding of this pest was noted in the West, Centre and North Sections. No Dutch Elm disease was found in 1937.


Am pleased to report brush was cut on all accepted streets. Many were cut the full width but all curves were cut far enough back to give an unobstructed view for at least 200 feet. Of course the cutting of these curves was done outside the highway bounds on private property. Permission had to be obtained from the land-owner, thanks to them in each case it was granted. If the W.P.A. continues an effort should be made to put there a project for the filling of cavities. We should also appropriate a small sum each year to replace trees removed and to fill in open spaces on our streets that our scenery would be even more beautiful. I recommend an appropriation of $1600.00.


Yours respectfully,


HARRIS M. BRIGGS,


Tree Warden.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE TEWKSBURY PUBLIC LIBRARY


The Trustees of the Public Library submit the following report:


Details of expenditures will be found in the report of the auditor.


Regular monthly meetings have been held with the exception of July and August.


The past year has been a most constructive one. In February two boxes were sent to the south part of the town. The one at Birchoff's bakery is well patronized and meets a definite need.


The library was opened on Wednesday afternoons from 1.45 until 4 o'clock in order that the high school students might have access to the books we are constantly adding for their benefit.


The report of the Librarian shows that 470 books have been added and that the circulation of magazines has greatly increased some periodicals are in such demand that two copies are necessary.


Our thanks are due the librarians and her assistants for the faithful performance of their duties and also to the patrons for their cooperation.


It is hoped that the request for $1250.00 found in the warrant, to- gether with money received from dog licenses be granted.


Respectfully submitted,


HARRY PRIESTLY, RUTH W. SMITH, DOROTHY FITZGERALD, -
