the close Of the season., We cast about
US and call tD MUD many things that
have been done during the year; and rs
tile old disabled veterans who have
made their hWMes in the state of Sautli
Dakota have been taken into the bosOm
ut their state they too may ask what
has been done for them for which they
should be thankful. Among the many
things recognized is u more liberal APP
Precipitation. which enabled the board of
managers to make sucl, improvements
aud changes rs to affect the entire de-
partment. Among the Improvements
are the repairs done OH the boiler house,
rebuilding the furnaces and raising the
smokestack, thus making tile heating
plant available ut all times for steam
heat hot and cold water. both for the
home aud the hospital. Plastering was
repaired aud the rooms calrimihed; a
fence WAS built enclosing the grounds;
u new sewerage system was put in; q
cistern built for a water reserve supply;
the water system has been made cum
pletp, to connect with all departments
Of the home; u large amount Of grading
has been done in tile construction of
roads and the preparation of Il park to
beautify the home grounds; the cottage
tor the a%hjutant is nearing completion.
and ut this writing the pia>taring is
being done. Notwiths' aMding the ALL
noumcement of a possible shortage in
the present appropriation, nothing has
been done that curtails any of the COM
forts Of the members present. The
only thing anticipated in the dire ction
of economy is u greater restriction as to
who shall be- admitted tn membership.
TIE executive management Of the hone
has been at all times OH the side of
mercy.
