SEXTON At CEMETERY
NOW MAKES REQUEST

Thoughtlessness in some instances,
is a crime, in many others inconven-
ience and hard work results. In this
connection we wish to call the atten-
ton of Americas citizens to an act
CT thoughtlessness complained of by
Mr.. j. P. Raiford, sexton at Oak Grove
cemetery. He says that it is COM
mon practice on the part of those hav-
irg plats in the cemetery to clean thcrl
Off only few hours before the time
for Memorial Day exercises, thus en-
failing a lot of extra hard and rapid
work in order to get the walks and
drives in presentable shape for the oc-
casion.
The sexton suggests and kindly
III ges that the work of removing rub
bish from the graves in the cemetery
be attended to at least four or five
days in advance of Memorial Day. In
this way they can help no little in
aiding him toward making the grounds
appear as they should
That the sexton is right, we think all
will agree, hence The Times-Recorder
joins with him in this request, be.
lieying that our people will meet him
more than half way.
