dies Memorial Association, of Wake
county, have begun work in the COnfed
crate cemetery here. Scrub grass has
gotten in the cemetery so badly that next
fall large part of the grounds will have
to be ploughed up and blue grass sown.
Now it is to be thoroughly cleaned up,
the walks gravelled, the pavilion and
summer houses painted. Flower beds
are being made in which hardy flowers
will be put, so as to have growing, bloom
ing flowers there A number Of spruces
and magnolias will be put out this month,
and the association hopes to haye it In
beautiful order before the close of the
year. The object Of the association is to
beautify the grounds and enough of the
money should be used for that purpose
and think there will be but few, if any,
opposing voices.
