An article appearing at the end of
the Herald's Potosi notes last week
was not written nor sent in by me-
The article saying that number of To-
cal citizens wonder how many" met
at the school grounds to organize a
national sane burial society, but does
MT say on what school grounds. 1t
was not in the village of Potosi, as
the Potosi correspondent has been
swamped with questions that he is I'M
able to answer. The object of the so
ciety if there be such a one may be
alright with some people. Who don't
know how to mind their own business
The view of these people as the arti-
Gle reads is that too much money is
spent on funerals, especially by peo-
pie in humble circumstances. Is this
any business of this proposed society
or any other society. There are too
many useless societies now, but an
other one is needed, and that is a So
ciety to prevent the making of moon
shine.
