a
view
to
obtaining

There

the

exceeding
the
estimates.
This
was
indicated
at
last
night's
meeting
of
the
board
when
the
ttustees
reviewed
their
financial
position.
The
over-expenditure
may
be
soma
ten
percent.
The
total
estimate
for
the
year
was
$73,932.97
and
up
to
the
end
of
September
expenditures
had
amounted
to
some
$59,000,
It
was
disclosed
last
