due in 1938. There is another. how-
ever. for 8100.000. due the next yedr.
We are now putting out hydrant
rentals towards these notes. and- in
addition are putting in a 1-8 mill
tax. We have been paying 810,000
a year interest, but your commis-
sioners want to retire these debts.
and get clear once more. The old
Norwslk debt or 8880.000 will be
met. when it tells due, and we have
about 8229.000 in the general sink-
ing fund tor that.
"As to the new water mains. We
have replaced all the concrete pipe
with the exception 01 a iew hun-
dred test. The system is in A1 shape.
We have pressure enough through
and even upon the Hospital Hill we
have a. pressure that will throw a
stream over the hospital building.
“We'have all ground purchased
for {new reservoir with the creep-
tion of one small plot. The East
Nor-walk billing has been a sore spot
but ybur commissioners thought it
the fairest way. The people oi! East
Norwelk supplied by our service do
not psyvany interest on the water
bonds. Therefore we consider it
only fair to continue with the charge
of rate and a half tor water service
to them."
J. Murray suggester that instead
of a. ié-mul tax‘belng put into the
\\ atcr Department sinking fund.’tha.t
the water rates be raised.
John Friasell. complimenting the
Commissioners to: the work of the
pm year stated that he questioned
1 term ornamental lighting. “It
passed the ornamental stage—it
.. .. necessity to a. live center. Many
people from out of town have spoken
favorably of it, and it is work well
done."
,Hs suggested that the cluster of
five lights on Mill Hill be separated,
and this will be done. possibly this
year.
A motion from the door by Dr. J.
the Library. This is the same
amount as last year. The report of
the Library Directors said in part:
One thousand. four hundred
books. by gift and by purchase. have
been added this year and 059 remov-
ed. This leaves 10,070 still upon the
shelves. Another year will see the
need of much necessary repair which
it seems impossible to meet with the
present annual appropriation. For
the successful maintenance 0: the
Library. its extended usefulness and
its healthy growth. we bespeak the
continued friendly co-operation of
the district.
Respectfully submitted,
By the Board of Directors of the
Nor-walk Public Library-J. G.

Hanford. Henry ‘W. Gregory,
John '1‘. Hayes. Thomas C. Bal-

port. thanked the audienca ot the
Garden Club for their donations or

it was time that the charter was
changed.
William H. McMahon stated that
the District was lucky. that they
had honest commissioners or the
District might have been sold out.
Mr. McMahon thought it was a. bad
custom 'to turn the sum of 810,000
over to the district. He thought that
all of the profits of the plant should
be turned over to the district and if
any money was needed by the plant,
it should come to the district.
Mayor Thomas Robins who also
one or the Electrical Commissioners
of the District told of tho steady in-
crease in business of the plant. He
pointed out that at the present rate
of increase they would need more
equipment at the plant, and that the
reserve fund was kept for this work.
He said that the local plant had a
. record of being one or the best
municipalplanis in the country.
w-MrrMcMnhon then asked 'what
had become of the $300,000 bond
issueytlmt was put at the disposal
of the commissioners sometime no.
He was informed by Judge Tam.
many that this had not been used
and that it could not be used by the
Electrical Cohimissioners until they
had come back to the District and
obtained the approval or a District
meeting.
According to the report the plant
realized a total gross Prom 01 852.-
688.“ during the year and has a
reserve fund of 861,478.19.
The report as presented by Elec-
trical Commissioners Jacob Linx-
\vciier. Thomas Robins and Patrick
F. Brophy was approved by the
meeting.
It was the 83rd annual report or
the Electrical Commissioners.
Mention is made in the report of
the great loss suffered by the plant
in the death at Mr. Winchester.
Because of the wording of the not
passed at the last session of the state
legislature it was necessary for the
meeting to change plans for the
water bond issue of 880.000. aulhOr-
iced at the meeting on July 27, so
that the bonds could be retired at
the rate of 81.000 each year instead
of at stated periods.
The bond issue has been sold to
the R. M. Grant Company of Boston.
it was stated by District Comv
missioner D. W. Hsrford, who acted
as the Chairman 01 the meeting the
the sum of 850,500 had been spent
during the year for the extension or
water mains and other impr’va.

Charles A. Walte'rs was -agsin
elected to the position or District
Auditor. His report for the year
, was accepted by the meeting.
The report el the District Treasur.
er Walter R. Ceilings and of the
Library Committee were also ‘ac~
copied by the meeting.
