This increase, the select- men state in their annual report which has just been issued, is principally on account of various repairs which will have to be made to the buildings dur- ing the coming year and to the fur- ther fact that the estimate for salar- {es last vear was slightly less than the amount required. The following is the sehool budget by the finance committee of the school board, William P. McGarry and Charles A. Saxtan: Estimated Receipts.

As the seiectmen are asking for a 7- mill town tax, the school tax rate will bring the total tax to 15 1-4 mills which will be a decrease of 1 3-4 mi over the amount requested and proved last year. In addition. how- ever. several petitions have been ceived from citizens asking for sun- dry appropriations by the town for variuos purposes. These petitions wili be acted upon at the annual .own meeting, and, if approved by the voi- ‘ers. wil!, of course, necessitate a larg- er tax. > large savings in the town expenses are shown in the outside poor account and the almshouse account in the last cleven vears.
