NO Dinner
CEMETERY ASSOCIATION LADIES
WILL NOT SERVE MEMO
RIAL DAY.

At a meeting of the ladies' com
mittee of the Madison Cemetery as
ISOLATION, of which Mrs. +. G. Smith
is the chairman, at Sec. +. l.. Bur
nett's office last evening. it was de
cided that the association would not
serve dinner on Memorial day this
year.
For nearly a score of years the
ladies of the association have served
dinner annually on Memorial day
and it has been an important feature
of the days observance, growing in
popularity until it was not unusual
of late years to serve nearly 1000
meals to local citizens and people
visiting the city. The reason for
abandoning the custom for this year
at least, as explained by Mrs. Smith,
is the high cost of provisions and the
large amount of work necessary to
make successful a dinner which has
come TO be ~patronized so generously
Besides the association is in excellent
condition financially, with sufficient
funds in the treasury to pay the cur
rent expenses of the association for
the ensuing year, and the ladies are
loath to assume burdens that are not
necessary for the upkeep of the prop
erty of the association.
