Town Council made arrangements for tlie collection ai taxes in twa or more instaîlments, believing it ta be ta tlie general interest ai citizens. Tlie by-law provided that the assessinent for this purpase must be based an tlie assessment ai tlie previaus year, sa that tlie assessment uspd for 1932 will alsa be used for 1933. That is the reason that assessment papers1 for 1933 are being received by cit- izens at this time. The usual procedure will be foal- lowed and Monday, November l4tli, is set for the sittings ai the Court of Revision an Assessment. It Is not1 hawever expected that the appeals will be many as the assessments are1 practically the same whicli were re- 1 ceived earller this year and on wltich the Court af Revisian sat. 1 It lias been proven i many mun- icipalities where tlie taxes are coi-9 lected more aiten than once a year1 that citizens are able ta makte bot- ter payments on them. It lias also been found that whlle the expense is a little greater in collecting tlie taxes this disadvantage is more than overcame by the saving ai interest on money borrowed from the Bank.
