I do mot know that I have very much to say to you this morning year, as I have heretofore prior to and after .the election, mentioned some of the matters requiring the attention of Council this year. K Expenses With reference to expenditures, I may say that IT can hold out no hope for a reduction of the tax rate thie year, owing to the heavy expenditures ' the Counell haa ta meet, We are starting with a small overdraft, which will have to be taken care of; we will have to pay for the grader out of the cur- reny revenue unless we decide to issue debentures for this small amount and there will be other large items to be faken care of. We will also have to issue deben- tures this year for the new ad: dition to the High School, al- though we will not have to pay on this issue until next year, am hoping that the revenues from the police department, licenses, rentals, scales, poll and dog taxes, Town Hall, and the various other sources, will be well maintained this year, If so, the Council will have more money to spend and will be in a better position to avoid an overdraft at the close of the year. I hope that each come mittee, in so far as is possible, will endeavor to keep within ite estimates, 1 also trust that each chairman will call his committee together before amy work is un dertaken, New Industry Soon With reference to the new fac: tory for which negotiations are now under way, I have every hope that it will be located here thie summer, giving employment to a number of men and women, and bringing new families to the town. I feel sure that every member of Council will do his share in bring: ing this factory here, and will throughout the year give best care and consideration to any other in- dustrial proposal that may arise, ALL LINEN LETTERED Glass Towels Red, Blue, Green and Mauve Borders, Towels are 19" x 28", portunity to lay in a good supply at 21c each I hope that some opportunity Thursday and Friday are DAYS OF ECONOM as Prices Listed Here will Speedily Prove BASEMENT "SHOPPE" SALE--All lines of merchandise A splendid op- 49c each Pure Linen Table Cloths The famous John $.- Brown line.
