THE HOME Gen. Horace Binney Sargent of Boston, "The Father of the Soldiers' Home," to [' whom more than to any other one we are indebted for our Home, began in 1875 by rousing the members of the Grand Army of the Republic, and they caused the Department of Massachusetts, G. A. R., to take up the work with vigor. The public nobly responded and contributed freely their sympathy and money. Members of the G. A. R. and associates were incorporated in 1877, worked hard, opened the Home July 25, 1882, with the General as President, and, although in California, he continued a Trustee until his death, January 8, 1908 (Annual Reports, 1883, President, page 4; 1901, President, page 5; 1903, Secretary, pages 1, 7, 8; 1908, President, pages 1, 4, 5). The fourth Thursday of September is the annual meeting - the first day of the corporate year; and July 1 is the first day of the financial year, but it was July 25 up to 1892, when it was changed to conform to the year of the National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers. The Trustees were eighteen in number when incorporated by chapter 218, Acts of 1877, and were increased to twenty-one by chapter 282, Acts of 1889. The Gov ernor fills all vacancies in the three Governor's appointments, and the Commander of the Department of Massachusetts, G. A. R., is ex officio, a trustee . . All other vacancies are filled by the remaining Trustees; but there must always be fifteen members of the Department of Massachusetts, G. A. R., one member of the Depart ment of Massachusetts, Spanish War Veterans, and one member of the Division of Massachusetts, Sons of Veterans, U. S. A. Seven Trustees constitute a quorum for doing business. CHARTER MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE ORIGINAL OFFICERS President Gen. HORACE BINNEY SARGENT V ice-President Capt. JOHN G. B.

To the Trustees of the Soldiers' Home in Massachusetts: GENTLEMEN: - The forty-eighth Annual Report of the Soldiers' Home, owing to the authorized change in the fiscal year of the Home to coincide with the financial year of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, embraces the seventeen months' period ended November 30, 1930. Since our last report on July 1, 1929, the following Trustees of the Home have been summoned by the Supreme Commander to their eternal reward: Thomas J. Buffum - Died October 25, 1929 Trustee 1922 to 1929 Major James Beatty - Died May 6, 1930 . Trustee 1921 to 1930 Freeman B. Sanborn - Died October 6, 1930 Trustee 1925 to 1930 Colonel George A. Hosley - Died May 13, 1930 Trustee 1924 to 1930 Vice-President 1927 to 1930 Captain Joseph B. Maccabe - Died November 17, 1930 Trustee 1890 to 1930 Asst. Secretary 1892 to 1903 Secretary 1903 to 1930 Mere words but emphasize the futility of an attempt to adequately measure the loyal, devoted service of these patriotic men, nor can the personal loss that we as their associates have suffered, be more than feebly expressed. All gave unselfishly of time and talent for the welfare and comfort of the Veteran Soldier, and while we record our profound gratitude to them all, especial mention should be made of the long service of Captain Maccabe, for forty years Trustee, of which thirty-eight years as Assistant Secretary and Secretary. No one has served more zealously, or" with greater kindliness and sympathy than Captain Maccabe. ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL It is the consensus of opinion that if the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is to continue its appropriations for building and maintenance, a closer supervision and control by the Commonwealth in the administrative affairs of the Home, than is now possible under the present Charter, should appropriately follow. During the past seventeen months a number of conferences have been held with the State Commission on Administration and Finance, at which there has been discussed a possible building program, based on the very excellent report by Colonel Whipple of the Commission, which would be contingent upon eventually placing the Home under State control. Under a plan, which has been suggested, control of the Home would pass to the Commonwealth, and the present Charter surrendered, on Decem ber 1, 1934, as recommended in 1924 by the Special Commission on Institutional Care of Veterans. To accomplish this, it will be necessary for the Trustees of the Home to petition the Massachusetts Legislature for the necessary changes in the Charter, and this matter should have our early consideration. The Home is operating on approximate capacity basis with increasing demands upon State appropriations for maintenance. The necessity for building replace ment construction is apparent, if the Home is to continue, and we are confident that out of the conferences now being held a satisfactory plan, which will be sub mitted to the Trustees for action, will evolve, by which the interests of the Common wealth will be conserved, and the future of the Home for the benefit of the veteran soldier will be secure. We acknowledge with deep appreciation our obligation to all who loyally and interestedly have cooperated in service for the Soldiers' Home in Massachusetts. WILLIAM J. KEVILLE, President. 9 REPORT OF THE TREASURER

REPORT OF THE COMMANDANT CHELSEA, December 1, 1930. Col. WILLIAM J. KEVILLE, President of the Trustees, Soldiers' Home in Massachusetts: SIR: - I have the honor to submit the forty-eighth Annual Report of this office, together with the reports of the Adjutant, Surgeon, and Chaplain. Owing to the authorized change in the fiscal year these reports cover the period from July 1, 1929, to November 30, 1930. The report of the Adjutant shows a net gain of nine members, with an average present of 387, an increase of 18 over last report. There have been admitted and readmitted during this seventeen-month period 65 Civil War Veterans, 310 Spanish War Veterans, 466 World War Veterans, 13 Indian War Veterans, and 11 Mexican Border Veterans, making the total number of admissions and readmissions 865. The total number cared for during this period was 1334. There have been admitted to the Home since it was opened July 25, 1882, 7,110 Civil War Veterans; since May 4, 1903, 1,687 survivors of the Spanish War, Philip pine Insurrection, Chinese Expedition, Indian War Campaigns and Mexican Border Service; and since January 6, 1919, 1,172 survivors of the World War; a total of 9,969 survivors of all wars. . There have been 4,721 readmissions, making a total of 14,690 veterans cared for since the Home was opened. . This report shows a loss of 93 by death, 4 less than in the previous year. Of this number 90 were members of the Home, four of whom died on pass or furlough. Three died temporarily at Post. The deaths are classified as follows: 47 Civil War Veterans, 3 Indian War Veterans, 28 Spanish War Veterans and 12 World War Veterans. The loss by discharges total 766, classified as follows: 41 Civil War Veterans, 12 Indian War Veterans, 313 Spanish War Veterans, 395 World War Veterans and 5 Mexican Border Veterans. Following is the classified enrolled membership in the Home as of June 30, 1925 to 1929, and as of November 30, 1930: 18 1930 1929 1928 1927 1926 J 925 Civil War Veterans 48 71 94 126 174 225 Spanish War Veterans 203 234 232 227 192 192 World War Veterans . 211 152 139 102 73 76 Indian War Veterans . 11 9 5 11 10 8 Mexican Border Veterans 5 3 Total 478 469 470 466 449 501 The percentage of the classified enrolled membership as of November 30, 1930, is as follows: Civil War, 10%; Spanish War, 42.47%; World War, 44.14%; Indian War, 2.3% and Mexican Border, 1.05%. The report of the Surgeon, covering the many activities in the Hospital depart ment, is worthy of careful and serious consideration. The hospital still maintains its high rating with the American College of Surgeons, the American Medical Asso ciation and the State Board of Registration of Nurses. The Training School for nurses has finished its fourth year, graduating eleven pupil nurses, three of whom have been selected to continue in the service of the hospital. Special attention is invited to the table of activities of the Medical Staff, and particularly to the work performed in the Dental Clinic, Physiotherapy Clinic, Out Patient Clinic, special treatments and X-Ray examinations; all of which have increased more than double that shown in the last report. During the past five years the percentage of disability has increased perceptibly. That of the Spanish War Veterans from 67.47% in 1926 to 81.68% in 1930; the World War Veterans from 43.55% in 1926 to 69% in 1930. The Civil War and Indian War Veterans are rated at 100%. The above figures present a condition which will increase and continue for some years to come. From 1882 to 1924 the majority of our hospital cases were Civil War Veterans. As these veterans reached the extreme age and their disabilities became chronic, the necessity of specialists was not so obvious. Since 1924 with the decrease of the Civil War Veterans and increase of Spanish War and World War Veterans, now comprising approximately ninety percent of the Hospital mem bership, many cases have needed the services of a trained specialist. Due recognition is herewith recorded for the efficient service rendered by our staff of consulting Surgeons, who have given liberally of their time and knowledge; and for their earnest cooperation with the medical staff of the Hospital, in the care of the veteran. I also wish to express my appreciation to the Surgeon and all the employees of the Medical Department for their loyal cooperation and efficient manner in which they have performed their several duties.

MARTIN, Adjutant. 62 REPORT OF THE SURGEON SOLDIERS' HOME IN M ASSACHUSETTS, CHELSEA, December 1, 1930. CHARLES W. PARKER, Commandant: S IJ~: - I have the honor to submit the forty-eighth Report of the Medical Department of the Home covering the period June 30, 1929, to December 1, 1930. The Hospital still holds its high rating with the American College of Surgeons, The American Medical Association, and the State Board of Registration of Nursing. The death rate has been further diminished and I have to report for the past per iod of seventeen months there has been a decrease to 7%. This, I consider the outstanding achievement of the Institution. The Training School for Nurses finished its fourth year, graduating eleven pupil nurses during this period. Up to the present time, every graduate of this Institu tion who has taken the State Board Examinations has received a creditable passing mark on the first examination. This speaks well for the character of the girls and the type of careful training given them. The turnover of em ployees has been dropped to 22% a year as in contrast to the annual turnover of around 400% for this type of employee before the Training School was established. Careful reading of the table of activities as compared to last year will show a tre mendous increase in the work done. Reference to the figures of patients admitted altogether show an actual increase of about 5%. Further investigation, however, shows that in this period of seven teen months, the months of July, August, September, and October appear twice. These are the low months of the year in this Institution. Comparison month by month shows an increase of about 10% in work done, as was predicted by Colonel Keville, President of the Trustees, in his report of 1929. The following improvements have been made in the physical equipment of the hospital: A retention room has been installed to properly safeguard delirious or insane patients until such time as they may be taken care of by another institution. Complete dental laboratory has been installed in the basement. The lighting facilities of the operating room have been improved and we now have available not only the Home current, but the Edison current, in case of emergencies. Two hundred chairs have been supplied by the Legacy Fund, and furnishings for two rooms in the hospital, four student internes' rooms and two student nurses' rooms have been provided from special funds. Shower baths have been provided for the west end of the building and new urinals at the east end. Electric water coolers have been provided for the main and top floors of the hos pital, for which we have to thank the Department of Massachusetts National Auxiliary, United Spanish War Veterans, and The Ladies' Aid Association in con iunction with Mrs. Winifred Paine and a group of Daughters of Veterans of the Civil War. Stone benches for the corridors were also provided through the kindness of the Carrie Buchan Club and the Massachusetts Department Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War. These improvements have greatly added to the comfort, safety, and convenience of the members of the Home. A fracture bed was also donated through the courtesy of The Kiwanis Club of Chelsea. A varicose vein clinic and hemorrhoid clinic have been established and have greatly contributed in the treatment of these troublesome and disabling complaints. The work in the Dental Clinic has increased considerably. The value of the work done is more than double that in the last report. I wish to thank the Trustees for their aid and cooperation, without whose assist ance this favorable report would have been impossible. I also wish to thank the 63 Commandant and other officers of the Home for their assistance and to extend to the employees of this Institution a word of commendation. Their work has been faithful, loyal, intelligent, and cooperative, and it has been a great source of pleasure to me to be associated with them. Attached is a list of the disabilities and statistics of the Home.

CHARLES W. PARKER, Commandant: SIR: - The report of the Dental Clinic for the period from July 1st, 1929, through November 30th, 1930, is respectfully submitted, together with a statistical table showing the amount of work completed during the period. As in the past, for the most part the value of this work has been based on the charges allowed by the United States Veterans Bureau for work of a similar nature, and a comparison of the attached table with those of previous years will show that a greater volume of dental treatment has been rendered. The addition of another dental chair, unit, and light will permit the rendering of more treatment and will speed up the completion of work. The demands on the Clinic are increasing as members of the Home are gaining confidence. II wish at this time to thank the Commandant, Charles W. Parker, the Surgeon, Dr. William H .

PARKE R, Commandant: SIR: - I have the honor to submit the following report for the year ending November 30, 1930. There is nothing unusual to report. We regret that the congregations are so small, because of the feebleness of the older veterans and the negligence of the younger ones who do not feel the need of Divine worship. However, it is a great pleasure for me to preach the Gospel of Good Tidings to those who are able and have the disposition to come. I thank God for the opportunity to visit the wards of the hospital and carry cheer and sunshine to the bedridden ones. There is where a chaplain can be a power of good. I have answered all calls for funeral services. I am gratefully indebted to Mrs. Albert Nickerson for supplying speakers and singers during the two months I was unable to attend my duties, due to a nervous breakdown. As usual the Memorial Service on the first Sunday in June, conducted by the Sons of Veterans, was successfully and profitably carried out; likewise, the second Sunday in June, Father's Day, by the Daughters of Veterans. I appreciate the kind felicitations of Commandant Parker and Adjutant Martin and for their personal visitations to my home in Wakefield during my illness. May God bless all the officers and members of the Home and grant them all a blessed New Year. Mass has been celebrated every Sunday morning by the Clergy of Our Lady of Grace Roman Catholic Church. Respectfully submitted, BENJAMIN G. SEABOYER, Chaplain. 80 OFFICERS OF THE LADIES' AID ASSOCIATION OF THE SOLDIERS' HOME IN MASSACHUSETTS 1930 President MRS.
