It is expected by Rev. Hugh Treanor
that the iron fencing will soon arrive
Tor the Sachem park grounds that are
to be converted into an addition to
st. Mary's cemetery, on Boswell ave-
nue., and that the work of erecting
the fence can be begun. The order has
been given for 1000 feet of fencing,
which will be put up along the Boswell
avenue front, extending northerly for
that distance from the line where the
park property joins the Potter land.
At the northern end Of the park prop
erty there will be about 200 feet, which
Will not have any fence, as the Con-
necti.ut company has the right of ac-
cess to = sand bank at that point.
The new fence Is of attractive de-
sign. Ave feet high. above a concrete
base flush with the ground. Every
other picket ends in spear point, and
there 1 a fcroll design between the
tops of the pickets. The pickets are of
two heights, set alternately, those with
the spear point being the taller. Be-
tween the upper rail and the rail at
the base of the fence the pickets are
plain and not of any twisted or orna-
mental design.
The main entrance both for teams
and for pedestrians, is to be at a point
sos feet from the southerly boundary
of the property. Fifty feet from each
end of the 1000 feet of fence there is
to be q gateway for pedestrians.
Civil Engineers Chandler and Pal
mer are now at work on the plan for
laying out the cemetery grounds.

Meade Band is Good

The Meade band played a con-
cert here last Thursday evening
which was one of the best musical
entertainments that has visited
Liberal this season. 1t is indeed
too bad that they didn't have a
crowded house. There was a
missionary rally in progress at
one of the churches, and a number
of other functions in town that
night that tended to make the
crowd at their concert smaller
than it would have been otherwise.
The band is good, and shows the
excellent training they have had
under the able direction of Prof.
John Won Proskey, who is prob
ably the best musician in this sec
tion of the state. In the afternoon
the boys played several numbers
on the street, and then we're taken
around town in automobiles. FL
lsaesser, Woods 6 Henry, the pro-
gressive real estate men, we're at
the head OF the procession with
their big Mitchell Six, and had
their banners hung on the sides of
the car. The Meade fellows are
all gentlemen, and their band is
giving that town some mighty fine
advertising.
