CERMANY'S PEACE
TERMS FORMULATED

Washington, Nov. 5.-"When Eng
land begins to talk peace the war in
Europe will be near a close. Germany
looks to England to open the discus
sion and Germany's terms already are
formulated"

Germany's peace conditions as fol

to pay Germany's war debt
Retention of Poland, which will be
made an autonomous state with q
customs alliance; retention of strip
OF Courland and the territory now
held by Germany in Russia until a
war indemnity is paid. Restoration
of at least a part of Germanys colo

turn of all.
Germany will evacuate Belgium,
which "she does not care to assimi-
late"
Evacuation of the Balkans by Rus
sa.
Complete Austro-German control
there.
The power to modernize Turkey

House of Lords.

London, Nov cabinet response
bilty, conduct of the war and the cen
sorship were discussed, criticised and
defended at a short sitting of the
house of lords.
Baron ST. Davids demanded a full

been better conducted by the late
Liberal government than by the pres

cabinet he did not trouble the lords
with any reasons, which he consid-

The Serbian army is retreating
steadily toward its central defenses
but it's fighting qualities apparently
have not been seriously impaired by
the tremendous battering it has re
ceived from the invaders.
The only success for the Serbians
admitted ~ Berlin is one along the
Nishava river, where the Bulgarians
have been thrown back toward Palan

vaders now are only twelve and a
half miles from the temporary Serbian
capital and check along the Nishavs
is not likely TO give the harassed de

that the Russians are concentrating

 Treasurer Ballard's report showed that $430 was received for the trust fund of the association during l9l3. The trust fund was shown by the re- port to total Sl5 1881 .4S. and all but Sl05 of this is tied up in the Putnam Saw ings bank, and has been since the inc stitution was closed on December 70, 1913. This fact has made il difficult for the association to carry on its work, and during 1914, when ailincome from the trust funds was cut of, the as soeialion bore the expense Of giving care lo the lols provided for by tfast funds Outside Of this. only neees. safy Wafk was done in the cemetery There was no grading of uew Lots er other improvement wafk Though tbe association aas able 6e take cafe ef Cine expense during l9l4 as indicated. ii has about reached tine limit of its resources and ability 10 du this.
 The amount received during i3i4 for the general fund of the assoeialion WAS $2, ,545 3f, and t6e amount expended for ali purposes was s5.006.64 The ex. penditHfes included S2 ,500, which was paid To Nelson King for tract of land between SIX and seven acres adjoining the present cemetery and to be de- veloped for cemetery purposes. The report showed the general fund as S9ll 9s, Of which amount s739.94, like the trust funds, Is tied up in the local savings bank. This leaves the asso- citation with free funds of S102 .04.
 An interesting and important change in the bylaws was made at the meet ing, this being the rescinding of the rule prohibiting automobiles from en- tering the cemetery. Automobiles, like teams, a5e to be allowed to enter here after, those improving the privilege 10 be liable for any damage that may be caused by the machines, as teams also shall be liable for any damage they may cause.

Accurate Records of Graves In Cemetery

The Putnam Cemetery association rightfully brides itself on the accuracy with which a record is kept of the bodies iterred in it's grounds and of the location of each grave Of the several thousand that have been filled. An illustration of the careful manner in which the records are kept occurred re- gently, when an order was received for the disinterment of body that had been buried for 2s years. After Iocat. ing the family lot on the cemetery map and noteing the grave number, each lot being the same size and divided for m equal number of graves, the eXea. vation was mnde with an exactilude that did moi vary an inch from the lo- cation wanted.
 ThIs accurate recording of where bodies are placed applies to practically ali of the cemetery excepting the very oldest parts, and there are many times, as in the instance cited, when the knowledge to be derived from the re cords is of much value. Few cemetery associations have been so particular in keeping such records as the one in Putnam
