Finding Our Work.

Finding Our Work.
 All along the way of Christian ser vice we will ever find this true, that places our work ready to our hand. We have not to make, but to find 1t Reach out thy hand in the darkness of thine ignorance, and thou wilt find 1t grasped by another hand, Divine hand, which will place 1t on the work which God has for thee to do; and If thou doest 1t not, 1t must be undone forever. For each of us there Is a niche in the great working world which none else can All. Be 1t ours to i'll 1t well and faithfully secluded though 1t be.-Rev. '. B. Meyer.

Gods Choice.

When the choice lies between hap piness and usefulness, God always chooses the latter for his children. This Is the key to many a mystery. We seek joy, God seeks fruit. We pray for comfort, God sends trial Not be- cause He Is unfeeling, but because He loves us too much to please us by in- turing us. The care-free life Is not the cared-for life. The crown shines brightest upon the forehead where pain has plowed her deepest furrow. That life Is the loveliest which has been chiseled into beauty by the sharpest tool of sorrow. God Is aiming at use. fulness, not limited to earth, but reach. ing past all stars and composing eter. nity. God has chosen us and into His plan Is woven both to-day and to-mor- row and the eternal years; and He will not give us the happiness of to-day Y that can only be purchased by tho

CARE FOR THE DEPARTED
Important Meeting of Joint Cemetery
Committee Last Night
To Improve.

The jont cemeteries committees met
at the office of Secretary Nichols last
night and outlined work for the com
ing year. A special effort will be made
TO interest more people in the matter
OF caring for the graves of their de-
parted friends, that the revenues de-
rived may be such as to warrant the
erection of shelter for those who Wis
II the cemeteries through desire or
necessity.
1t is a matter of public interest and
should be one of public pride that our
cemeteries be made beautiful. The
services of landscape gardners come
high, and none such can be employed
until such time as a sufficient number
or lot owners shall patronize the com
mittee with orders for Improvement
and cultivation of their lots. But the
conditions surrounding the cemeter-
les are such, that any spot of green
or towering shrub is as an oasis in
the desert and also relieves the mind
from the idea that our sleeping
| friends are expelled from our af-
fections.
The members of the committee are
busy men and give their services graf
Is. No profit above necessary ex-
penses is expected or desired. The
revenues from the cultivation of
lawns now planted. at the rates
charged will not pay the services of
the sexton for three months of the
year. The deficit for the past year
was $3.50 which was made good by
the owners of the Masons, Odd Eel
lows and Orchard Mesa cemetery
associations.
More lawns should be planted and
prompt attention to the payment of
bills therefor be made in order that
the comittee may be justified in pro-
yiding the common necessities for
the comfort of those who visit there
The care of the lawns for the first
year is eight cents per square foot,
whether they be built and seeded by
the sexton or the lot owner himself,
and two cents per cquare foot for
subsequent seasons. The care of trees
and shrubs is ten cents each per
year. The cemetery owners paying
to the committee the came rate as
the lot owners. Patrons may place a
permanent order with the committee
to care for their lawns year after
year, by an agreement to pay charges
in advance on or before the first day
of April of each year. This will re-
lleve the committee from the neces-
sity of loking after the matter every
spring.
Application has been made by the
owners of Calvary cemetery. the Ca
tholic burying ground, and by Mr..
Mr.. Bannister's new cemetery, to be-
come parties to the agreement under
which the other cemeteries work, and
an order was passed admitting them
on the same terms. AS soon as these
new cemeteries shall have provided
water system, orders for lawns
therein will be accepted by the COM
mittee.
The rules were amended to re
quire that collections be made by the
secretary of the comittee instead of
the treasurer thereof as heretofore.
It was also ordered that hereafter
no monument or gravestope should
be erected in the joint cemeteries.

short time after a number of stones of varying
sizes had been found by men on the estates ad-

discovered, and through whose land the green
strips also ran On his arrival at the supposed
diamond field. Dir. Kunz made careful tests ana
