The Cemetery Beautiful

Only a few people realise what 4
beautiful place the Abilene GENE
terry has become. We beautify oul
home surroundings and take muct
pride in doing so, but not many OF
us give much thought to the fRal
resting place of our dear ones who
have been called to the home beyond.
There Is not cemetery In Kansas
that Is cared for better than our own,
and yet, only a few stop to think Of
the time and effort given to this
worthy cause by the trustees Of this
association.
The city water has been extend
ed to the cemetery and pipes have
been laid on the principal streets so
that any one who cares to do so can
have water on their own lot, thus
enabling them to have all kinds Of
flowers II they are willing to devote
the necessary time to care for them.
The principal streets have been
nicely graveled for two years but
now the streets in the outlying parts
are receiving the same care and In
a short time you Will find beautiful
roads throughout the entire grounds.
The trees have been well trimmed
and much Of the old curbing has
been removed and it is surprising to
see what an improvement has been
made. The income from the perpet-
ual care fund and that from all other
sources Is spent in improvements
and it is sincerely hoped by the trus-
tees that the people generally will
TO- operate In making this the most
beautiful spot In Dickinson county.
II you have not already arranged
for perpetual care for your lot it is
your duty to do so at once. In do
ing so you will a&d your share in
identifying the place that is already
an object Of pride on the part of the
city. -

the habit virtually are in a state OF
perpetual inability.
There seems everywhere in the west
to be a sort of restlessness among
working men. from which they now
are only convalescing. A case in point
occurred on our contract in Rainier
park this summer A crew of striking
coal miners looked over our works and
finally consented to go on the payroll.
Several days later the entire crew,
without n word of explanation to any
body, laid down their tools and walked
off the job.
Declined Free Transportation
A week or so later they came back
and began work where they left off,
but without saying anything to any
body. To this day we don't know why
they left. or, for that matter, why they
came back. The incident serves fairly
well to illustrate the general attitude
of men towards work at the present
time. When the work in Rainier park
was completed, we offered to pay the
transportation of this same crew if
they would transfer to q contract we
under way near Hamilton, Mont,
but not a man accepted"
The company's Hamilton contract Is
being carried with a half crew, and In
Colorado the working force is consid-
erably below normal. In Minnesota.
