37 <br />Report of Veterans' Services <br />District Board: <br />Chairman Henry R. Darling—Yarmouth <br />George L. Cross—Barnstable <br />Kirkwood B. Brown—Dennis <br />A. John McQuade—Sandwich <br />Leo Sweeney—Mashpee <br />Board of Selectmen, Town of Mashpee <br />Gentlemen: <br />It is with a great deal -of pleasure and honor that I make <br />my first written report to you. The Town of Mashpee was ac- <br />cepted in this District beginning this year. I would like to <br />give to you a brief summary of the advantages of Mashpee <br />joining such a district. <br />This District Department of Veterans' Services comprises <br />the Towns of Sandwich, Mashpee, Barnstable, Yarmouth and <br />Dennis. I am a full-time Veterans' Agent and Director of <br />Veterans' Services with two full-time secretaries. The office <br />is located in the Town Office Building, Room 1, 2nd floor, <br />Hyannis. The office hours are 9:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. five days <br />a week, Monday through Friday. <br />It has been my pleasure to meet many fine citizens of <br />Mashpee the past year and assist them with their Veterans' <br />Benefits. <br />This Department would be remiss if I did not pay tribute <br />to my predecessor, Mr. Francis Devlin of Halifax. He devoted <br />many days and hours in aiding the veterans and their de- <br />pendents in this town. I wish him success in his new venture <br />in our State government. <br />I wish to acknowledge the complete support and coopera- <br />tion which I have received from the Board of Selectmen and <br />all other town departments. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />CHARLES H. CROSS, <br />Director and Agent <br />
