to make friends for Park and 
Cemetery by patronizing its 
advertisers andbygivingthe 
paper credit for the intro-

trees and shrubs, all from choice stock, 
some of which were imported. This

scape work and ornamental planting 
done. Other improvements are now

directors of the association and they 
have just purchased 4^4 acres more 
ground adjoining the Cemetery to be 
held in reserve and planted and plotted 
as soon as required. Mr. L. W. Hoover, 
secretary, writes that the cement block 
vault built m 1906 is pleasing to the
