terest falling due before the next tax levy, out of any other funds at
their disposal, and to include in the next levy the amount necessary

event of a vacancy of the Commission by death, resignation, or other-
wise, such vacancy shall be filled by the Board or Boards, and in
the manner, by which the member of the Board whose vacancy is
being filled was originally selected.
