Another Anniversary Of the Gage Gem
otery Improvement society has rolled
around and the society is justly proud Of
its work. Only four Years ago the
grounds were covered with obnoxious
weeds, broken stones. etc. whereas nov
the drlveways are beautifully laid out
weeds nearly obliterated and stones in
GOOD preservation and nearly all grading
completed. Many beautiful monuments
have been recently placed in the cemetery
and a manifest interest seems to per-
wade the community. A substantial mon
ument was erected in 1914 to the memory
Of the owns poor by the srciety and
town. who have CALAMITY stood by TIE
society In all enterprises, The society en-
pended 81 Ii for work alone last year. To-
day the society stands clear of debt with
something over slro in the treasury. Tho
question now confronting the society Is.
how can water be obtained in order that
the work of identifying the grounds may
progress to ADVANTAGE.
