Honey Announced as Candidate for Mayor, 1935 dan Dean of Varsity to Visit Here Friday $1i29,000,00, Last year the amount of overdraft on Nov. 15th was only $15,â€" 000,00 A glance at the liabilities will show that the town has not been borâ€" rowing from the bank to pay accounts that were allowed to stand to the end of the year last year. There is about the same total of Kabilities to be met this year as last. In other words the town has gone behind during the year and is back to the sad game of paying bank interest on heavy overdraft. It is true that from the $125,000.00 might be taken $50,000.00 for unsold debenâ€" tures for sidewalks, but even this leaves a sad balance. Still more startling are the figures for charity and relief. Last year charity and totalled $74,440.07, oneâ€"third of this amount being paid by the Govâ€" ernment. This year charity is given as $90,434.21; direct relief, $68,778.90; reâ€" lief fund, $3,542.76; a grand total (though "grand" seems an unsuitable: worq in this case) of $162,755.87. It is true that the Government is paying half of this amount, but even so there the same this year town has and is b: Town‘s Overdraft $125,000.00 as Against $15,000.00 in 1933 Fotal Re for th recupine Branch of Varsity Alumni CGiving Dinner and Dance on Friâ€" day Evening of This Week. nvitations have been issued by the cupine Branch of Varsity Alumni the Varsity Alumni dinner at the pire hotel on Friday evening of this ‘k, Nov. 23rd, at seven o‘clock, and the Allâ€"University dance to be held the same place on the same date, cing being at 10 p.m. Invitations the dance must be presented at the t the Varsity Alumni dinner toâ€" row (Friday) evening the speaker be Dean A.
