ANNUAL REPORT 1968 BRISTOL, NEW HAMPSHIRE A TRIBUTE TO BOWDOIN PLUMER
A man's wisdom cannot be measured, but the effects of his wisdom can. Wisdom was Bowdoin Plumer's greatest asset. As early as 1929, the people of Bristol recognized Bowdoin Plumer as a man devoted to the betterment of his community. Confidence in Bowdoin Plumer was continually demonstrated by the voters for they kept entrusting him with
different town offices for the remainder of his life.
As local needs became more involved and complex, Bowdoin Plumer simply stepped forward and went forth accruing those necessary years needed as a Representative to the General Court to make himself more effective in serving the town he loved so well. Bowdoin Plumer was always known to have Bristol's growth, prosperity and well being foremost in his mind.
There was no single act or accomplishment necessarily credited to Bowdoin Plumer, but his thinking was deemed almost indispensable on town matters. The town of Bristol has truly derived much from this extraordinary citizen.
The memory of Bowdoin Plumer will remain for many years to come.

I? H H = O O 51 REPORT OF BRISTOL FIRE DEPARTMENT The Bristol Fire Department wishes to take this op- portunity to summarize the fires and their activities of this past year. The Department responded to twenty-eight calls from Dec. 1, 1967, to Nov. 30, 1968. There were five structural fires, six chimney fires, three flooded burners, four Mutual Aid calls, nine miscellaneous fire calls and one false alarm. Mutual Aid was summoned twice and each time five tank trucks responded from surrounding towns. A "dry hydrant" was installed during the past year on the west shore of Newfound Lake, this being the upper end of the Town Lot. Another dry hydrant will be installed this coming year on the East Shore of Newfound Lake. These are especially beneficial in obtaining water from the lake, especially in the winter time. A voluntary training program was initiated and con- ducted by Captain Kenneth Brown. These classes are held each Tuesday evening and cover different phases of fire fighting, use and care of fire fighting equipment and hose layouts for different sections of the town. To date, results of these classes have been most gratifying, not only in the attendance at classes but in buildings and equipment saved because of the knowledge gained. RAYMOND A.

Circulation has fallen for the second year in a row. This is due in part to the development of the libraries in both Elementary and High School. The use of books by students in the library continues at a high level however. We are now faced with the purchase of a new ency- clopedia. Not only have two volumes been stolen from the Library but also the need to keep our reference material up to date makes this move imperative. With this in mind we have asked for a $300 appropriation for books. Once again our reference collection has been aided by a $100.00 grant from the State of N. H. We are pleased to report that our Library is now a member of the Central group of libraries under the State organization and accordingly book selection meetings, trus- 53 tee meetings, etc., are in the Concord and Laconia area rath- er than in Littleton or Colebrook. The Trustees and all those associated with the Library- have special cause for missing our late fellow trustee, Bowdoin Plumer. He was always available with his special experience and background to help the Library in any way possible. Our long time chairman and prime mover, Hervey P. Lawless, has retired from the Trustees. His years of de- voted work on behalf of the Library was outstanding. His energy, knowledge and help will be greatly missed. Our Librarian, Mrs. Doran, and her assistant, Mrs. Dickinson, are deserving of our special thanks for their faithful service. Hervey P. Lawless Mrs. Chester Wells Fred W. Storm Mrs. Curtis W.

It is also an industrial- ized state and this growth is likely to continue, all of which means more families and homes. Our growing summer population is scattered throughout the state with a phenome- nal increase in vacation homes. Many new homes and practically all cottages are being located in woodlands and abandoned fields and forests crowd into the back yards of our village streets. In a state where the forests cover 86% of the land surface, it is necessary that everyone be aware all through the season, which comes with the disappearance of the snow until the snow comes again, of the need to be careful with outdoor fires and fire sources. The following action will help 1. To teach our children the danger of lighted matches. 2. To never discard lighted smoking material from a car or while walking through fields or woods. 3. To safely dispose of rubbish preferably at the town dump. If you must burn a. You need a written permit from the town fire war- den for all debris burning except when the ground is covered with snow. Cooking fires in outdoor fire- places or in charcoal brasiers in your own back yard is permitted on notification of the warden. b. The warden is forbidden by regulation to allow burning of household rubbish on grass by household- ers between 9 :00 A.M. and 5 :00 P.M. c. Have equipment on hand to control the fire before you light the match. : 69 4. Promptly report any fire out of control to your fire warden or fire department. Help to keep our town out of the fire occurrence column and save our tax dollars for useful purposes.
