Preble, Lewis Mclaughlin, c. F. Chandler, F. +. Patten,> F. G. Sanford; auditors, F. G.. Sanford, B. E. Penny. A number Of things were discussed. There has been criticism of the association tecause graves have not been opened during the winter months. Since the tomt was built it has been the policy of the association, on account of thefeXtra expense and difficulty of digging, not to open graves in the winter. At times when the winter was mild re- quests have been made for the open ing of graves but it has teen the pol icy not to do so. The president and secretary were appointed a committee to establish a price for the opening of graves during the winter months. A suggestion was also made that the cemetery be given some name other than Stafford Springs cemetery. This was discussed but was left to be de- cided later. . On account of the difficulty of obtaining trap rock last year none was used on the drives. It is intended to use some the coming season. The enlargement and i'm provement of the looks of the tool house, which was left in the hands of the executive committee, will also be considered this year. The report of the treasurer was as follows:
