Budget This Yer Wil Be| Biggest Ever SCHOOLS New Water Tank for Trains to Be ected—Webster-Jarvis Wedding | | November {—JFagan Leaves School Committee—Briel Items. | The annual town meeting, which ’.’\dj(lul‘n“d October 5th will be held this evening at 8 o’clock in the Town hall. This meeting will be one of the most important ones of the whole vear as the budgets and the appro- priations for the ensuing year will be passed upon. This year will see the greatest budget in the town's history as a new road will be constructed at a Wost of $9,000. Then therc is the in- creased cost of running the schools, | which means at least a $45,000 ap- propriation. i The newly elected officers of the ' town will be in control this evening | for the Irst time. Dr. R. M. Griswold, first selectman, will occupy the chair. | It is expected that Dr. Griswold will vhave something to say to the voters about his plan for a reassessment with a view to increasing the income to make needed improvements. The ! tax rate will come up before the town meeting in March but it is probe that matters pertaining to the rate will be brought up tonight entire town has been hit by the real estate boom of the past several month with the result that property ! has been selling at unheard of prices. | How this condition will affect the re- | essment is a matter of speculation, | but it is generally admitted that now is the time to make a revaluation on | all the property. The grand list last | vear was $2,375,813, and according to report the next grand list will run lose to $3,000,000 if not over it | "he rate last year was 16 mills but! where it will be this year no one! dares to surmise. | There is no doubt but that every- | thing brought up this evening will be passed upon everything in the budget is very badly needed. The in- creased cost of maintenance for the ‘hools must be met and the budget as passed on by the finance board does not include anything not needed, but is based on the lowest possible es mate for the expenses during the en- suing year. The $9,000 appropriation ! for the K Berlin road was passed | on at a special town meeting several weeks ago but must be included in the budget This is but a quarter of the total cost, the state standing the Yemainder. Ta Erect New Tank. The New Haven road has com- menced to tear down the water tank at the Berlinvdepot and will construct new one with a much lacger ca. pacity to accommcedate the main line trains. The old one has been stand- ing there for 30 vears and although st a | vember 1, at 6 o'clock | is the first of the Americanization s Hitherto there was some delay in schedules, especially when several engines wanted water at the samey time. To obviate this, the tank will be made larger to gel an increased flow so that an engine may 4ll in much quicker time. The old tank | was being empiied this morning, both outlets being turned on full.. e The -oilets are connected with the tank at the station and these wjll he ( closed to the public, until all. neces: sary repairs haye been completed. ., Invitations- Out e Wedding invitations Jrave- been” re+ ceived “in town . for the sapproaching wedding of Merton Wgbster dnd Miss Pauline Jarvis of Porttand ‘on" No- n the evening.
