 KilIingly's town debt will show re- duction of approximately s14,0o0, it is | indicated, by advance figures made avail able Thursday This will be highly pleas ing news to the taxpayers. especially in view of the fact that & very substantial reduction in the debt was male last year, | and Selectmen John A. Gilbect, James Bacon and George Alvord are entitled to congratulations for the excellence Of the showing.
 Three things that account for the extra good showing are that the town court shows profit instead of the usual deficit this year, this making a difference of nearly $2,000 in the balance sheets; that i $2,5O0 made available for the rebuilding of the foot bridge over the Assawaga river has not been used because high water prevented undertaking Of the work | up to this time and that Sl530 made available for the construction of public comfort stations has not be en expended only in part as yet.
 But these things notwithstanding, the balance is so favorable as to assure 1 good feeling throughout the town. Even a better showing would have been pos sible were it not for the fact that storms have damaged the highways in unsual de- gree this year. All of this repair wcrk has not been completed and wllas remains to be done will cost money, but everything considered, the showing is excellent this year and the taxpayers will be very pleased.
 | Work tearing down the old foot. bridge across the Assawaga river near the state armory, is under way. The oridSc is now closed to travel and RivervieW residents are going around by Main ant Maple streets to reach thair homes.
