this year and part of next to raise the money. If the road is to be built it will be built of concrete in all proba- bllity as the difference in the cost of a macadam and concrete road is but a trifle over $2,O00. A concrete road can be kept up with a minimum of cost, whereas in 8 few years a ma cadam road begins to need constant repairing. A Warrenite road is more costly by far than concrete and is consequently out of the question:.
 Finance Board Meets s:,
 The finance board met last evening at the town hall to go over the various budgets for the ensuing year. The en- tire evening was practically taken up with the school board budget, which will call for between 1000 and SAT- 800 for the coming year. There are four more teachers on the staff this year than last which is a big item in the increased budget. The deficit of $3,50O is included in the above amounts. The meeting last evening was in entire accord, much different from the town meeting a few weeks ago..
 Another meeting will be necessary to iron out the remaining kinks in the different budgets as there are still one or two items in the school budget to be considered and some on the roads. East Berlin Items
