The cemetery association is ondoavi
oring to have some system in tho man
agement of the cemetery in order that
it may bo kept in shape. In ordef to
do this it is necessary to have, some
rules. Heretofore when a gravo was
to be dug anyoue who was so inclined
went to the cemetery and helped dig
the grave. Tho dirt was left in an uu
shapely pile. Now the trustees have
decided not to allow anyone to dig a
grave except the sexton. This is tho
rule in almost every cemetery. Then
the dirt is taken away and the
lot cleaned off. Mr. Liebhnrt, the
soxton, gets very littlo for his services
and has put in a groat deal of hard
word. It is asking too much for him
to bo required to take away dirt in ad
dition to the regular work unless he
gets paid for it. Those looking after
graves are also required not to dig
holes or ditches to get dirt to till up
sunken graves. The Boston has to All
up these holes, be to considerable
trouble in avoiding them when run
ning the lawn mower or leave these
lots alone. Tho last choice will prob
ably be taken in the future. Those
Interested in tho cemetery should co
operate with the trustees in this good
work.

deavor to cure a cancer on his hund.
His wife has been sick much of the
time for a year or two. He is raising
some grandchildren, and all this on a
small pension and what littlo he raises
on a few town lots. Mr. Scrivoner is
one of our best and most charitable cltis
zeiiB, and when it was learned that his
cow was dead it was immediately
proposed to take up a collection and
buy him another. This was done
Monday forenoon and 930 was raised
in a very short time, which was turned
over to Mr. Scrivoner.
