The local chapter of the American Red Cross, and the Sal- vation Army, are always very cooperative and do much to alleviate unfortunate circumstances whenever called upon.


The Overseer acknowledges the splendid efforts and gen- erosity of the local Mother's Club when at Christmas time this year they provided gifts and clothing to seventy children.


Our local Rotary Club also make a generous donation to our Christmas fund.


Among the younger groups the Overseer desires to mention the Home Economics Class at St. Johnsbury Academy, who each Thanksgiving take it upon themselves to furnish a com- plete Thanksgiving dinner including a big turkey to a large fatherless family in this community, and the local Boy Scout troops who also contribute baskets during the holiday season.


And there are always those faithful groups belonging to our church societies who silently but generously give assistance to our needy. To these and the individual citizens who contribute to the welfare of their unfortunate neighbors we wish to thank for their appreciated generosity.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT


The continuation in the Spaulding Neighborhood of the farm to market gravel highways in which the State contributes a proportion of the building cost was resumed in mid-summer and another three quarter mile leading to the north was com- pleted. The old road was re-shaped and re-lined. One bad curve was eliminated, a new culvert was installed and a new heavy gravel road base 24 ft. in width was constructed the entire length of the project. Then two 4" applications of fine gravel was applied, the highway was then properly bladed and smoothed, new ditches were properly constructed and all brush on the side of the project was cut and burned. Plans for con- tinuing this project another one-half mile to the north leading to St. Johnsbury Center are contemplated in this summer's work.


Another project of similar construction was begun on the upper or east end of Bible Hill. At this location a very narrow road was widened to about a full 24 ft. Two feet of heavy gravel base was built, new ditches were cut, three culverts were in- stalled and this project was also covered with two 4" applica- tions of fine bank run gravel. The narrow cuts on this section of roadway made it very difficult plowing in the winter as well as very expensive, and this section was also one of our worst trouble spots in the spring during the spring thaws. These con- ditions have been corrected and already this winter expenses of plowing have been cut to a minimum, and in the spring we should have very little trouble with mud. Another new culvert and some widening at the extreme end of this project will be necessary this coming summer.


A mile of re-surfacing was done on the North Danville road beginning at the intersection of U.S. 2 and running north to the Heath Farm. RC/5 Asphalt and Pea Stone were used for re-surfacing.


The Waterford-Higgins Hill highway beginning at the Waterford north line and running north in the Town of St. Johnsbury to the village limits on Concord Avenue was re- surfaced with RC/5 and Pea Stone. This was placed on top of a double tack coat. A part of the cost of this project was paid by the State of Vermont.


On the Back Lyndon Road another one-half mile of this highway was re-surfaced with six to eight inches of selected bank run gravel and then calcium chloride was applied on this project.


It will be necessary this summer to make extensive repairs and some re-locations to the roadway north of the old railroad

station at St. Johnsbury Center. The present roadway runs parallel to the railroad and is much too narrow at this point. Considerable drilling and blasting will be necessary but for the safety of our school buses and all those who travel this highway this project must have an A-1 priority this coming summer.


Improvements are to be made to the highway leading in to the school at St. Johnsbury Center. A double tack coat and widening was begun on this project last summer.


The Selectmen intend to hard-surface all the highways at the Center and at the East Village within the next few years and they will match funds with the State Highway Deparment to make these improvements. It is understood the State will have a part of their funds available for this coming season.


Our D-7 Caterpillar Bulldozer which was purchased from the War Surplus Commodity Division has been used to a great advantage in re-building all our town back roads and is also of material assistance in keeping our highways properly plowed during the winter months in the Spaulding Neighborhood.


The regular road honing and light graveling with some brush cutting was done on all our back roads during spring and summer. As help becomes more available a big brush cutting project will be started as several miles of our town highways have been greatly neglected during the past few years and as galvanized culverts become more available many more of these rulverts will be installed replacing small tile culverts and old' wooden box culverts which have served their usefulness.

ST. JOHNSBURY TOWN REPORT


REPORT OF THE FAIRBANKS MUSEUM OF NATURAL SCIENCE


1947


The Fairbanks Museum of Natural Science as an education- al asset to St. Johnsbury had to function through 1947, again, at far from its possible capacity because the curriculum of our public schools allowed no place for the organized nature study classes formerly held at the Museum. Requests from individual teachers for classroom demonstrations, guided inspection of exhibits, showing of pictures, identification of specimens, and use of reference material on some school topic were frequently granted. These requests were usually accompanied with the wish that regular classes were being held as in former years, and surely this is the constant wish of all in charge of the Fairbanks Museum.


Attendance records give the total number of visitors as 15,582. Of this number 1,029 were adults and children who came in groups from graded or high schools, 4-H clubs, summer camps, and vacation schools, many of them in distant communi- · ties of northern Vermont and New Hampshire, with the ques- tions of students and a real desire to see as much as possible.


Summer activity with local children was under the leader- ship of Miss Ethel L. Shaw, of Greenwich, Conn., former nature-study teacher here. The results of their field trips, study, and handwork were shown by an exhibit at the end of the summer.


On a typically busy day during the summer a visitor from Arizona remarked at the office that this was the most "dynamic museum" he had ever visited and so attractive that it was an unusual pleasure to visit it.


The lighting of the main floor cases has been greatly im- proved by the installation of the series of fluorescent lamps under the balcony. This reveals the desirability of additional units when funds are available. Freshening of the walls and shelves of several cases, together with the regular cleaning of specimens and renewing of labels has also added to the attrac- tiveness of the room.


During the summer the slate roof had to be repaired in many places which had been causing leaks in balcony and office during both winter thaws and summer rains. Unfortunately after fifty-seven years of weathering snow and ice in the several roof angles, the expense of this slate roof has become an almost con- stant item.


33


ST. JOHNSBURY TOWN REPORT


The publicity given to some of the Museum's activities and exhibits by the "Caledonian" has been appreciated. The co- operation shown by adults and children in sharing objects of interest in their possession has added occasional new attrac- tions to the classroom "zoo" or to various specimen cases. The annual gift from Mrs. Edith N. Stevens to the Inez Howe Class- room Fund is acknowledged.


The interest of the public always inspires to further service, and it is sincerely hoped that their interest will as soon as possible restore to St. Johnsbury Public Schools the educational advantage of regular nature study in the classroom of the Fair- banks Museum.


Respectfully submitted, Mabel A. Shields,


Curator.

Librarian's Report


ST. JOHNSBURY ATHENAEUM For the Year Ending December 31, 1947


The report of the work at the Library is practically the same each year, varying chiefly in the statistics. These, however, indicate the actual use made of the Library and hence are of interest to the townspeople.


The Library loaned to 3,421 persons 79,130 books, with a daily average of 261. These were not all borrowed from the main Library. 7,996 were loaned at the Portland Street School, 4,204 at the Arlington School and 13,447 at the schools at St. Johns- bury Center, East St. Johnsbury and Goss Hollow. A total of 32,886 books were loaned to 921 children. A distinct increase in the number of books loaned to the children from the Summer Street Schools was seen after the return to the normal schedule in the fall.


We resumed our regular class work with the sixth, seventh and eighth grades. The children were taught to use the card catalogue, reference books and the index to periodicals. A brief explanatory talk was followed by problems to be worked out by the children.


The work with the Academy was under the direction of Mrs. Margaret L. Woods. A course of lessons in Library Science was given by Mrs. Woods to all Academy pupils. Thirty-nine classes came to the Library for these lessons. This work included practice questions and tests.


There are about 32,000 books in the Library, of which 665 were added during the year. 241 were books for children.


The Library received as gifts 49 books that were regularly catalogued and added to the permanent collection. Many others were placed on the shelves as duplicates and still more of the gifts were put in circulation temporarily.


Hours were spent in reference work for adult and juvenile borrowers. 923 questions were recorded. Many more came in that were not noted on our daily record sheet. Many questions are asked over the telephone, often these calls are for correct spelling and pronunciation.


The Library subscribed to 76 magazines and papers and re- ceived as gifts 35.


The St. Johnsbury Division of the Regional Libraries estab- lished by the Free Public Library Department of Vermont, has desk and stack room space in the entrance hall on the second floor of the Athenaeum Building.


35


ST. JOHNSBURY TOWN REPORT


The present schedule of hours at the Athenaeum is every week day from 11 A. M. to 5 P. M. Monday and Saturday the Library is open until 9 P. M.


Many gifts of books and magazines have been received. For these and for the expressions of interest and encouragement that have come from many friends of the Library sincere appreciation is felt.


Respectfully submitted,


Cornelia Taylor Fairbanks,


Librarian.
