An effort is on foot TO have the
cemetery at this place newly
fenced, a house built, and a keep
er employed by the year to keep
the cemetery up. This is a move
in the right direction. A few
hundred dollars will build the
fence, and in these depressed
times it will be no trouble to EN-.
ploy a good, reliable man at a fixed
salary, reasonable, by the year, to
look after keeping the graves,
grave stones, etc., in repair. We
trust this effort upon the part OF
our people will meet with success
and that the resting places of the
beloved, departed friends, kindred
and neighbors will not be neglect
ed in the future as they have beer
in the past. Let everyone con
tribute to the noble cause.

they have bargains for the trade
