of approximately: $(.,000 and Mho
board saved about $-1,000 from its
yearly budget allowunco; In other
words, did not expend $4,000, which
the taxpayers authorized.' Short

over of taxes duo the district from
the county Is about $1(1,000 short;
Uuring the yonr, all Interest on the

of the district become due. dur

'always been compelled to borrow
