Superintendent's - Deport
To the School Committee ,o f Mans field :
-GENTLEMEN :—It gives me great - pleasure, to present my
twentieth annual report of the ,schools -of Mansfield for the
year from January, 1910, to January, 1911. The statistics
taken from the registers •are for the year. ending in June,
1910. There is a movement being made by. the State. Board
of Education to have the statistics of the school year co-
incide with the financial year and not have tw•o- different `
years as at present. Also to have the reports from all the
towns placed in the hands of the public more nearly up to
date, not eighteen months behind'` as at- the present time.
Both these changes will prove very satisfactory.

The schools continue to grow. In enrollment we have
gained over last year sixty-two in average membership,
forty-nine and four tenths; in average attendance, thirty-
six and seven' tenths; in number attending between five and
fifteen, forty-four; in number attending over fifteen, twenty-
two,; in -number attending between seven and fourteen, twenty.
We close the year with forty-two more in attendance than
were reported last December in spite of the fact that many
have reached the age of fourteen and have obtained certifi-
cates to work which they are using.
We have not an abnormally large first grade as we had
last year but the increase is shown in the second grade which,
has forty more than last year. While every = seat is taken
in the first grade, at the -Spaulding School,, the same grade
at, the Town Ball_ has .a -comfortable number and can be
thoroughly to fight by one teacher. In the Spaulding School
for 'this grade we have employed two teacherson- full time
and :find it difficult to do the work on account of the many
non-English speaking children. With these children the
classes have to be made very small and the older ones, some
ten and twelve years of age, have to be given more difficult
work so as� to be -promoted as ---fast as possible ,and. not wait
time of promotion in Jun6. They under -
until the regular
stand --numbers - readily,- Viand find =most ZM—_ulty in reading
and iiia erstanding, -our language. While as yet only' a few
have -reached the upper grades- of the grammar --school, the
number of ,those who are in the higher ,grades is incl easing
and we hope soon to have some in the .high school. .
Though many -of the classes, are large the grading of the
Center Schools is much -better than last year, for. in no room
have we twogrades either at the Town House,: Spaulding or
Central Building. The conditions are- not so good . at the
Green Scl ool._.for we have been obliged toy -put three °gradesin
the -primary >room: and three in the gramma,i room. Owing
to the -exceedingly large eighth grade, they could -not all be
accommodated at the Central Building as we would like to do,
so -,a part- of the, class had to, remain at the Green School. -It
is this -grade which has given us most anxiety.for-next yeax;
for -M-01 the town' there are sixty-eight pupils in .it; which, if'':
they should all -come to ninth grade next year would give the:
principal . of the grammar school more pupils than any man',
ought to�beexpected to, teach- at'�one time: � .fit -also adds, to:
,.the. seriousness of the problem of providing for them when
they come to high school. The actual number attending the
High School already surpasses our estimate of last year and
-with twenty-three in the graduating class and forty-nine in
the ninth grade on the way to take their places, the need of
more room is apparent and much more .so than it was last
year.
We have a new condition to meet in the high school in that
with the growth of the town we have to provide for new comers
-as well as for those who enter from the ninth grade. Dur-
ing the fall term we have had seven additions from this class
and there are more to follow who have to be provided for.
We have employed a new teacher and we are using every
available place even to the office �of the School Committee,
which has no ventilation except what may be obtained from
the windows.
We place these facts before the town more urgently than
last year for the need is greater to accommodate the in-
creased number in the high school at the present time and to
make suitable provision for the large classes which are -al-
ready filling the grades. From the present condition of the
schools and the prospects which lie before us, we feel justi-
fied in every effort made last year to, secure a suitable build-
ing for our high school.
This school has a classical department to fit for college and
the higher institutions of learning as we are obliged to do
by- law whether we wish to or not. We are doing' much in
science to meet` the requirements of the scientific world of to-
day,- hence the need' of laboratories. We have lately added
a commercial course, which has proved the most popular of
any course, to fit' students for the business world. Now
there is a pressing demand for an industrial education. In
the large cities separate buildings are erected to furnish
means for this kind of education.° In the country town such
work must be taken in connection with the other courses as
we are told by experts. Now whatever changes in courses .
24
the future may bring all of these will have to be provided for
and architects of school buildings are taking these factsinto
consideration and all their plans such as we have presented
to the town have been built on the unit plan so that no build-
ing can become antiquated. The construction is such that
when new demands are made for any new kind of work another
unit is added to the building without destroying anything al-
ready in use. In our plans for a new building we have pro-
vided for the four kinds of work for present needs and for
requirements for some years to come so that any outlay will
not be wasted.
TEACHERS.
We have had many changes of teachers in all grades.
Miss Sargent secured a position in Connecticut and her place
in the high school was filled by the choice of Mr. Luther in
the commercial department we were obliged to give up Miss
Corey who took a much more lucrative position at Westfield
and in her place is Miss Cassiday. The increased size of'the
high school made it necessary to have another teacher and,
Miss Flavin was transferred to this position while still teach-
ing the history in the ninth grade. She had to give up her
work with other grade pupils who needed special help, much
to our regret. Miss Upton took the place of Miss Mace
who was married. Miss Johansen was transferred from East
Mansfield to, fill a vacancy in the third grade. Miss Chap-
man was transferred from Whiteville to fill the vacancy `at
East Mansfield and Miss Smith employed at Whiteville.
Miss Adams took the Balcom School -in place of Miss Greeley
who went to Falmouth and Miss MacChlerie, the place at the
Briggs vacated by Miss Bruce who was married. The resig-
nation of Miss Bayley at the Hall Scholl made necessary
the choice of Miss Clara Bruce and the vacancy in the
Spaulding first grade caused by the removal of Muss Apple -
bee to Attleboro was filled by .bliss Wetherbee. At the close
of the year comes the resignation of Miss MacKenzie as prin-
cipal of the Green School. She came to us in 1904 and has
proved a most acceptable. teacher and principal. Her suc-
cess has brought her many offers to go elsewhere but much
to our delight we have been able to offer her inducements to
stay which up to this time have been successful. To this
position Mrs. Ingraham has been elected.
Notwithstanding all these changes we have at present a
very strong corps of teachers. Especially fortunate have
we been in the selection of teachers for the outlying schools
and happy should we be if we could retain them. Such
teachers are in constant demand and we have to make the
most of them while we have them and the heartiest co-opera-
tion is urged upon all who can in any way help.
This record of changes may give one some idea of how a
part of the time of the superintendent is employed and as
there is no more important duty than the choice of new teach-
ers, he has to give much attention to this work during term
time and vacation. Never was it harder to find good teachers
than at the present time. So many women are now entering
commercial pursuits where the money received is much
greater than in teaching that the supply is materially de-
creased and the consequent competition so much greater.
Inuring the past twenty years, Mansfield has had one hun-
dred ninety different teachers in her public schools and only
two of those who were teaching when the present superintend-
ent commenced his service are now with us.
We have felt the need of another teacher to help in the
third, fourth and fifth grades at the Central Building where
the smallest class has fifty-four pupils. Many in these large
classes have not had` advantages which favored their advance
and it has been an impossibility for the regular teacher to
give` them the attention which is their due. We trust that
the help which a new teacher already engaged may give will
bring all these schools to a higher stage of efficiency.
26
EYE AND EAR .TEST.
It is expected that this examination will be made by the
teachers in September of each year that any defect may be
remedied, if possible, before the work of the year is attempted.
Hereafter it is expected that only the worst cases will be re-
ported but every year -slight defects are - found which in a
measure hinder the progress of the pupil. We commend the
effort which is made to remedy the defects when once they .
are pointed out.
Number attending when test was made 944
Number found defective in sight 110

PRIZE SPEAKING CONTEST.
The second series of contests between the towns in this dis-
trict comprising Mansfield, Sharon and Stoughton was be- Y
` gun at Mansfield when the preliminary contest took place in
the Town Mall on February 25, 1910. Ten pupils` contested
And the first place was won by Carolyn Walker, the second
by Chester Wyllie and the third by Veronica Bradley. Hon-
orable mention was given Henry Hallihan.
® The final contest took place on the evening of Friday,
March 1S with music furnished by the Hodges Trio. One
first prize was won by Miss Walker of Mansfield the other by
Mr. Pattison of Sharon. Sharon also won one second prize
and -Stoughton the other.
The second contest of this series which takes place at Shar-
on is already, under preparation -and the pupils are contesting
for places on the preliminary list. We wish that 'we had
more time to devote to this branch of our work but little as
it is there are unquestioned advantages derived from it and
fortunate are those who have the ability which puts them in
line -with the training given by a special teacher. To, have
definite goal brings out the best we have in our pupils, and it
will be a blessing to ahem all their lives. The same is true in
their writing. The Argonaut is doing much good in a differ-
ent line but just as helpful. To write for a definite purpose
has much more incentive and profit than simply writing for
the teachers' correction and nothing- more.
THE PRIZE DRILLS.
. The eighth annual prize drill of the boy cadets was held in
the Town Hall on April 1, 1910. The first prize was won by
Private Edward Griswold and the second prize by Sergeant
Philip Comey. Honorable mention was given to Private
Arthur Hodges. The Freshman Medal was given to Private
Francis Jackson.
The third annual prize drill of the Girl Cadets was held
on Friday evening, April 22, .in the Town Hall.
First prize of a gold medal was given to Miss Margaret
Arndt, Freshman, second prize of a silver medal to Miss Ellen
Murray, Senior, and honorable mention to Miss Mary Wroe,
Junior.
PARENT -TEACHER ASSOCIATION.
Through the efforts of Mrs. Walter Leroy Smith of Mal-
den,. Mass., who is connected with' the National Congress of
Mothers, a local Parent-Teacher Association has been formed
with Mrs. W. C. Fuller, President and Mrs. F. H. Hadlock,
Secretary. The whole aim and purpose of the organization
is to do all that can be done for the welfare of the child and
the greater good can be accomplished by bringing the home
r 28 p
and school together, for through the co-operation of parents,
teachers find their work both easier and pleasanter, and
khrough knowing the home life of the children they are better
able to develop and mould character.
Meetings are held in the high school room on the third
Thursday in each month after school hours. Meetings have
been addressed 'by Dr. Bigelow and Dr. Turner and a teacher
from Boston besides other local talent. The question box
has been used and much profitable discussion has been
brought out.
This organization could be made much more profitable by
a larger attendance and by fuller and freer discussion of
subjects mutually interesting to parents and teachers. The
superintendent thinks this is one of the best things that has
come to the work of the Schools and he anticipates much
more good from it as plans are more fully matured and par-
ents are more acquainted with the objects of the Association.
MEDICAL INSPECTION OF WORKING CHILDREN BETWEEN THE
AGES OF FOURTEEN AND SIXTEEN.
Oil and after the first day of August, 1910 children be-
tween the ages of fourteen and sixteen must be inspected by a
physician before going to work in factories, workshops or
mercantile establishments.
A school physician after inspecting the child must certify
in writing whether or not in his opinion the child is in suffi-
ciently sound health and physically able to perform the work
which the child intends to do.. Superintendents of schools,
or persons authorized to approve age and schooling certifi-
cates must not approve such certificates until they have re-
ceived the examining physician's certificate that in his opin-
ion the child is in sufficiently sound health and physically'
able to perform the work.
The steps now in getting a certificate are for the child to
apply to the prospective employer for a certificate that he
intends to employ him. . This he takes to the school physi-
cian who tells in writing whether or not the child is fit in his
opinion to do the work; then the employer's and the physi-
cian's certificates are brought to the Superintendent of
Schools by the parent or guardian who has to sign and take
oath that the facts stated in the certificate are true to the
best of his knowledge and belief.
In spite of all these requirements far too many from choice
or necessity go to work and leave behind what would be of in-
estimable worth as the years roll by.
GRADUATIONS.
The Commencement Exercises of the- high school took
place in the Town Hall on Wednesday evening, June 22, and
the exercises of the grammar school on' Friday evening, June
24.
It was my misfortune to be deprived of the pleasure of at-
tending either of these on account of illness but the Chair-
man of the Board, William M. Packard, presented diplomas
to twenty-one graduates of the high school and Mr.Irving'
Foss, a former teacher, presented forty-seven diplomas to the
grammar school pupils, forty-four of whom entered high
school in the fall.
Of the high school graduates five have entered college,
eight have continued their studies in other places, seven have
gone into business positions and one has married.
Commencement exercises of the ninth grade of the Mans-
field Grammar School were held in the Town Hall, Mansfield,
Friday evening, June 24, 1910, at eight o'clock. Principal,
Allen B. Doty.

Our sad farewell to say,
,With hearts that beat in sorrow
And faces bright and gay,
Life's pathways stretch before us,
The future none can tell,
But Hope's bright star is o'er us,
And thus we say farewell.
To comrades, friends and teachers
We breathe a fond adieu;
Sweet memories we shall cherish
Of happy hours with you.
We meet to part in sadness
We part to meet no more
Until the Day of Gladness
On the eternal shore.

REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF DRAWING
nIr. E. P. Fitts, Superintendent of Schools, Mansfield:
DEAR SIR :--I have the honor of submitting the following
report of the work in drawing.
In comparing the work of the past year with that of the
two previous years, I am' pleased to be able to state that the
progress continues to be gratifying and satisfactory.
It has been most interesting to follow the progress of the
classes from year to year, and to note the ability of the dif
ferent classes to undertake more difficult problems. Some
times, I think we fail to appreciate the great educative value
of drawing.
It is second only to language. It tends to develop the
power -to 'see, gives clearer vision of natural objects, en-'
haunces our enjoyment of nature and thus helps to enrich
and fill our life with the beauty that surrounds it on 'every
side. But this power can only be acquired, when the eye has
,been taught to see and to behold only in the doing do we learn
and only in 'practice oft repeated and long continued is this
ability to see given us.
The essential aim during the past year has been to develop
more fully in this power to see and to show how an object
looks. The form of objects has received the first considera-
tion and though other topics have been studied and developed
this fundamental one has received the most attention. Un-
less children have the ability to clearly observe the shape of
an object and make a truthful representation of their ob-
servation, they can never acquire the discipline, knowledge
and culture which drawing should give.
From the fourth grade up, work in construction, design
and mechanical drawing has been carried on. In this part
of the work, great emphasis has been put upon the import-
ance -of neatness and accuracy from the very first, and as far
as possible in design the children have been encouraged to try
88
and do original work. If the children can be brought to see
that the beauty and utility of the article he is making, it
does not matter how simple it may be, depends -on each and
every part, from ,the drawing and design, to the cutting and
the pasting being neatly and carefully done, a great step in
the right direction has, been made in the educational life of
the child.
The work in the High School, is, divided into two classes,
one class being composed of all the freshmen who take draw-
ing and the second class of pupils from the other three years.
The freshmen class is much larger than usual this year, but
as more time has been given to the work, we hope to be able
to cover more ground than heretofore.
I desire to express my thanks to the School Committee,. and
to yourself for the appreciative interest and support you
have given me and to the helpful co-operation of the teachers.
Respectfully,-
MARY H. PREVOST.
REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC
)JR. E. P. FITTS, Superintendent of Schools:
DEAR SIR :—I think it is Henry Van Dyke who says: "It is
only by thinking about great and good things that we come
to love them, and it is only by loving them that we .come to
long for them, and it is only by longing for them that we are
impelled to seek after them, and it is only by seeking .after
i
them that they become ours -and we enter into vital experience
of their beauty and blessedness." This might be said of the
study of music in the public schools. It is by thinking about
music that the child comes to love it, and by loving it' hE
comes to long for it and to seek after it until he enters into
"vital experience of its beauty and blessedness." Many men
and women today are lovers, of music simply because, during
their childhood they were compelled to think about it and to
study it in the public schools.
The work of the past year has progressed along the same
lines as formerly. The teachers have been most faithful in
their work; and if there has been any lack, it has been due to
unfamiliarity with the work, rather than to any unwilling-
ness on their part. It seems that the day is fast approach-
ing when teachers will be required to have the necessary
preparations along musical lines. At the recent National
Convention of the Music Teachers' Association, held in Bos-
ton,'it was recommended that "every graduate of a Normal
School should have some musical training, as most musical
l,aching in the schools comes from the grade teacher." This
,s a step in the right direction.
Good progress has been made in all the first, second and
third grades, and thus the children are well prepared for the
work when they enter the fourth grade.
The Abbott Individual Sight Reading book has been placed'
in the fourth grade in the Central School. It. is too early
to report concerning the results of this study, but we have
reason to, hope for decided improvement in the independent.
sight reading of the individual child.
The work in all the upper grades is constantly improving:
-Most of the schools read readily and sing with a good quality
of tone.
The ungraded schools deserve a word of special commenda-
tion. The work in these schools has been steadily advancing
all the year and it reflects great credit on the teachers. Es-
pecially is, this true in some of the ungraded schools since the
fall term commenced.
The crowded condition of the High School makes the work
there somewhat difficult. Two persons sitting in one seat
can hardly be expected to do their best work in music. TAe
perfectly upright position, which is so essential in singing is
an ;,.utter impossibility and the entire lack of repose of the
body under these conditions is sure to express itself in the
equality of tone.
40
Sonne one has asked: "What is meant by ability to read a
language?" and has answered "Is, it not that familiarity with
the signs of language which enables us to comprehend an
English sentence the instant it meets out eyes?" If we
ask, "What is meant by ability to read music?" may we not
answer, "It is that familiarity with _the signs of music which
enables us to comprehend a musical phase the instant it meets
the eyes."
Measured by this standard how few readers of music there
are. *Let us aim to make the children of the public schools of
Mansfield as proficient readers of music as they are readers of
the English language.
Respectfully submitted,
J. E. SHEPARDsoN,
Supervisor of Music.
CHANGES.
It might be interesting and not out of. place to trace some
of the -changes which have taken place in the schools of Mans,
field during the ,last twenty years.
The population of Mansfield by the census of 1890 was
3,455 now it is 5,183. The number of children enrolled the
spring term of 1891 was 578now we have 1002. The num-
ber of pupils in the high school that spring was 40 with a'
principal and an assistant; now we have 135 with a princi-
pal and five assistants. .Then it required sixteen teachers for
.all the schools in town, now it requires thirty-one.
Then the course in the high school was three years - with
graduations in the spring, but no one fitting for college,
Now the course is four years, the graduations are in June and
we have pupils in nearly all the colleges that are near us en
tering by certificate such colleges as allow that privilege.'
In the twenty years two hundred twenty-eight pupils have
been graduated from the high school. Then we had no
music or drawing taught by special teachers; now we have
both these branches taught by experienced teachers, also
military drill for the boys and girls of the high school.
Then the high school occupied one room at the Town
House with no laboratory and used a part of the library
room for a recitation room. In 1892 the high school occu-
pied two rooms in the Central Building and had a small
laboratory in the attic. These accommodations were soon
outgrown and in 1900 we had an additional room and a better
laboratory together with an extra room for the grades, for
the primary school had been occupying the old No. 4 school
building after it had been vacated upon the opening of the
Central Building.. In 1903 still more room was needed for
the grades and two rooms were fitted up in the Lower Town
Hall.
October, 1905 the new Spaulding Building was opened
which gave much relief to the school which had been having
half sessions in the old building. In 1908 an additional room
far®the commercial department of the high school was finished
off in the attic of the Central Building. The outlying school
buildings have all been -renovated, the Briggs having been .
doubled in size.
It has been a great pleasure to be connected with growing
schools even if it has caused us much anxiety to provide
properly for the increasing demands. Growth is better than.
stagnation and we face the future with high hopes that there
will be still greater advance in the next twenty years.
In closing I wish to say what seems to me to be so neces-
sary to be repeated that our great need is a new high school
building.
We need it for the health and safety of the many pupils
now in the high school. Our statement of last year regard-
ing numbers has been more than made good and it has come
about from the enlarged growth of the town which as never,
42
before has brought new members into the high school. Wheni,
formerly we never had this factor to consider, now it must be
taken into account and the future growth of desirable citi-
zens will be largely affected by the interest taken in providing
suitable conditions for education.
We need it for the efficiency of our work. To accomplish
the best results we not only need more room but more rooms.
This year we have been obliged to use every available room
set apart for the high school and also the office of the school
committee. Some of these rooms are without any means of
ventilation with the exception of windows and not fit for
permanent use for school purposes. Our laboratory is so
small that two divisions. of a class are necessary in order to
find room for work while with a larger room one division would
suffice and thus the time of the teacher be saved.®
We need it in order to provide conditions which will in-
duce our experienced teachers to stay with us and attract
such teachers as we would like to secure from other places.
It is only too well known how we have suffered in the past
from losing the teachers we wanted to keep because others
offered better attractions for successful work.
We have no personal ambitions to promote; we do not wish
to burden the town with taxation- but we do wish to procure
what we feel is not only a necessary but the best investment
the town can make for the good of the children of the high
school and also of the other grades besides making an added
inducement for intelligent, prosperous people to make their
homes in Mansfield.
For your kind support in every effort which has been made
to further the best interests of the schools I heartily thank
you.
Respectfully submitted,
EDWARD P. FITTS,
Superintendent of Schools.

Eighth Annual Report of the Mansfield
Municipal Lighting Board
Mansfield, Mass.
January 1, 1911.
To the Citizens of the Town of Mansfield, Mass.
We take great pleasure in submitting to the citizens of
Mansfield the Eighth annual report of the operation of the
Municipal Lighting Plant, the same covering the year end-
ing December 31, 1910.
The business of the past year has, been of a satisfactory
nature and new business is constantly being added.
Probably in no other department of municipal affairs is
the growth of the town more noticeable than in the constantly
increasing demand for current, both for power and lighting
purposes.
The almost general adoption of the "Tungsten" lamp with
its great economy in current consumed has caused a falling
aff in the revenue of the plant, but which has been compensa-
ted for with the new business obtained.
The general use of the "Tungsten" lamp has been the
means of giving the consumer more and better light for less
cost to him than was possible when the carbon filament was
used.
4
The benefits have been two -fold, Itot only giving the corn --
Sumer what was practically a reduction in rates, but by the
saving in energy, has permitted the Central Station to supply -
all demands made upon its producing capacity.
It has been found by all electric light plants, both private
and municipal, that there is a steady increase in its business
and it becomes necessary to install additional equipment, at
frequent periods, not only on its lines but in the generating .
equipment.
Additional business means more powerful engines and gen-
erators and in order that new business which is bound to come
may be properly taken care of, and the present load handled
without serious interruption, this plant must have more en-
gines and generators.
At the present time the equipment of the Central Station
consists of three units, two of 120 h. p. each and one of 9,25
h. p.
During the heaviest load hours of the day it requires the
services of the larger as well as one of the smaller units to
supply the current demanded.
If for any reason the larger unit should become disabled
-even though temporarily, the two remaining units would not
be able to supply the commercial needs, thus necessitating
either of two problems, viz; shutting off the street lights of
restricting the use of the commercial, we feel that either of
the above would subject the plant to unfavorable criticism.
It is the opinion of your board that a new unit of larger
:size should be added to the present equipment to meet the
growing demand for current.
As the installation of a new unit would consume the greater
portion of a year, we advise that action be taken on this mat-
ter in the near future.
We believe that the expense will be taken care of by the in-
creased receipts of the plant and we see no reason why the tax
_rate should be increased.
.5
By a careful perusal of the appended report, you will note
that the repair s of Lines and matters incidental thereto have
been an item of considerable expense, this was owing to dam-
age caused,by the heavy sleet storm of last winter. It was
found advisable to over -haul almost our entire system, this
has been done with the exception of plain street, and as the
Telephone company intend to' rebuild their line on the above
named street, we thought that better and -more permanent
work could be accomplished by delaying that part of the
work. We have all the material on hand to complete the
necessary changes.
We find the property of the plant to be in good condition
and a bright outlook for the future. We are convinced that
the town has a very valuable asset in the Lighting Plant,
demonstrating year by year the wise policy .of a municipality
controlling its public utilities.
For the Maintenance and Depreciation requirements of the
plant for -the ensuing year we recommend the receipts of the
plant.
We wish to thank the citizens of the town for their cordial
support and co-operation .in the past, also our most efficient
Manager, Mr. George W. Wood, whose report we present in
conjunction with our own.

To the Mansfield Municipal Light Board:
GENTLEMEN:—I hereby submit for your consideration_ and
approval the report of the business, operation and financial
condition of this plant for the year ending Dec. 81, 1910.
The plant has been operated during the year without any,
serious 'breakdown and the citizens have received practically
constant service both in commercial and street lighting.
New business has been taken on, 71 customers have been
added to the list. 22 h. p. of Motors installed, 89 Meters
representing about. 2000 additional lights were connected.
The income from commercial business was $17,P71.19
which is an increase of 1680.80 or about 10%. This show-
ing would have been much larger except for the general use
of the "Tungsten" .lamp.
It is also due to the "Tungsten" lamp that we have been
able to supply the current demanded and be able to operate
in a manner satisfactory to all. Under the old conditions
the plant would have been loaded in such a manner that it
would not have been possible to supply current for all pur-
poses at all times.
All meters and equipment necessary to take on new business
during the year were paid for out of the amount transferred
from the Depreciation Fund to the Construction account.
The plant in general is in good condition. The No. 1 and
No. 2 engines are in very good condition. The No. 3 or large
unit has been in operation almost constantly for four years
and it will be necessary to make some repairs on it during the
coming year.
A large amount of repair .work has been done on the lines
during the year. All of the outlying lines have been rebuilt
and are now in first class condition. The Main streetand
some few streets which operate in connection with it still
remain to be rebuilt. Arrangements were made last summer
to do this work in conjunction with the Telephone company,
but they were unable to do it then and the work will in all
probability be done this spring.
Lines have been extended on Pratt st., Warren ave., No.
Main st., East st., School st:, and some short lines have been
run on a few other streets in order to take on profitable®com-
mercial business, and most of the cost has been charged to
the Maintenance account.
The net cost of street lights to the town for the past year
was 4,647.68.
This makes the cost for a 82 c. p. lamp $8.21 and the cost
of a 200 c. p. lamp 49.26.
There are now installed 81-200 c. p. and 880-82 c. P.
street lights.
I wish to thank the board for their support and kind assist-
ance during the year.
The following data and financial statements will show the
