Treasurer Howe Talks.
All yesterday and far into the night City
Treasurer Howe was working on his books
in order to get his monthly balance off.
He said last night that the overlap in the
school fund would amount to a little over
5 1900. In May the liqpor license money
will be coming in and then cash payments
can be made as long as the money holds
out. Considering the fact that the board
has been forced to rent a number of out
side rooms in order to take care Of the in
crease in the number Of pupils and the fact
that several additions to school buildings
have been constructed, the overlap is not
considered large by some who take an in
terest in school affairs. There seems TO be
a desire among the people to have the board
confne its expenses to its income. This has
not been done for years as the rapid in
crease in the enrolment has caused an ex-
penditure beyond the means supplied to
the board by taxation and the state appor-
tlonment.
