Dr. George F. Dunham Visiting in Town-Miss May 'Tcbbctts Leaves for Missionary Ficld-Other News Notes From About Town.

The finance board is meeting this over the budgets as presented by the different departm ents of the town. In order to remove as much criticism from the board, the public is asked to come before the board this evening and voice any criticism or make any suggestion that would materially aid the board in making up the budget to the satisfaction of all. This year is going to be an important year in the towns history and it is very important that everything pertaining to the budget is done right and done well so there will be no obectiona ble com ment arise afterwards. The school budget has been prepared well as the remaining budgets and these are open to the inspection of all citizens.
 This invitation to all is genuine, as the board is out this year to get q budget which will be satisfactory in every respect. Last year the budgets for the different departments fell short in a number of cases and it is the plan of the board this year to an- ticipate any increases and to allow for them in the budget for the ensuing y&ar. There may be a number of cor rections to be made in it which the board has failed to see and if the citizens will come before the board and make suggestions or criticisms, it will be greatly appreciated.
