has been spent so far this fiscal year for school purposes and the board had about $30,000 to carry the work through for the remainder of the year. The board will keep within the amount granted in the budget.
 It is an interesting fact to note that the school committee has been able to keep within it's budget since B. K. ShoWalter has been superintendent of the schools. When MT. Showalter first came to Berlin there was a slight deficit from the previous year. He was able to pay this with the next years expenses and has not exceeded the budget since.
