Show city cemeteries the most pleasant places in the old cities of the east are cemeteries many are perfect dreams of beauty and in the summer evenings the tired people ef the city of the living love to go oat and rest a while in the city of the dead there seems to be something about a graveyard that lifts a reflective individual a little above his earthly surroundings it seems to be a sort of a connecting link between this lifes short existence and eternity one feels while seated in a well kept cemetery like ho does when looking out on the ax ocean bounded by the blue horizon all is more or ipas a djs tery and humanity loves the mysterious te rious it would be a joy to all in this city bad we such a well kept cemetery as eastern cities possess it would be a comfort to the living in baoy ways and not less in the that a duty had been well fulfilled toward dead friends in keeping their graves green today our cemetery is little more lovely than the green fields that surround it the flowers placed on the graves cannot be watered except by packing water to them and onn soon kirea of them V iab a water main extended to the c methry which cerald be done at a ainali every family almost owinna ios there would take the city water with a little piece of hose the graves of apar ones could constantly be kept green our sexton could kea more ornamental shrubbery growing and jooa provos cemetery would become famous we already have borne lovely and costly statuary thero and by a little effort on the part of the chiy ual effort could be more extended we believe it would be well for the city adminis to find out how many will take the water if extended to the cemetery and how much say a four inch pipe would cost laid that far most of the work need cost nothing more than labor six or seven hundseid dollars will pay for the pipe and many owning lots at tho cemetery would gladly work a day or two on the trench to pay the assessment ses on their water in advance ad vanne the whole thing seems folly within the reach of the city low as inq finances are and it is an improvement of which provo will always be proud |
