Wt hold memorial days in their non.or. Their bodies lie buried in foreign land^ but their graces are te.idery careri for by loving hearts ani will- ing' hands. Should we not dc as much for our pioiieer a«i;e5tor â-  by beautifying their last i-esting place? They came to this country 'n its youth, and labored under a great many difficulties clearing land, build- ing homes and making the founda- tion of communities today. Is it cot to our credit to cherish their memory by keeping tidy and respectabh their burial grounds? In large towns the cemeteries have caretakers, and plot l-olders p\y fflr perpetual care, but i^ these country cemeteries it is to the interest of rhf- people and the credit of the com- munity to beautify such grounds. One of these cem^ttr.'es is sicuated on the South Line^^rtemesia, and ii- known as Evergreen Cemetery. At one time this cemetery was tenderly cared for by an old Scottish gard- ener, who loved the beauty of flowers and who spent long hours working among theni in this cemetery. .-Vfter his death, no one took the same pride and interest in it which he had and it became neg'lected. Two years ago interest was agai.T aroused, as relatives of deceased persons buried there and plotholders, met and planned voluntary bees. Since that time a voluntary bee has been held twice a year for the pur- pose of levelling graves, cutting grass, trrmmiug trees and giving the cenietei-y a general clean-up. A couple of large flower beds have been mcde and roots, bulbs and plants al- ready there were moved. .A. memor- ial tree has Seen planted by a garden designer, once an oU neighbor of persons now deceased and buried in this cemetery. In 1948 an appeal for funds 'o make improvements, was sent out to plotholders and relatives. This met with a genei-ous response, and from that assistance, fence post and gates were painted, fences repaired, more bulbs pui-chased and planted for spring bloom. Plans are under way at the pre- sent time to erect a sig'n bearing the name of the cemetery. This matter s being gi\-en special attention by an appointed committee. What has been accomplishied in the South Line community cemetery, could be done in any community.
