Annual Meeting of Association—Per- petual Care Fund $10,000—General Fund $7,000, The arinual meeting of the Westfield Cemetery association was held in the cfice of the secretary, Attorney Arthur G. Bill, Tuesday evening, Reports for the year 1911 were presénted and of- ficers® elected for the ensuing year. The report of the treasurer, Nathan | D. Prince, showed that the associa- | tion is fn good financial standing, the | perpetual care fund amounting to | about $10,000, and the general fund to | about $7,000, this latter fund accru ing principally from the sale of lots. The income from the fund is used in making general Improvements about the cemetery and in beautifying the grounds., An improvement made with money from this fund during 1811 was the in stallation of a 5-horsepower gasoline engine for use in pumping water from the Quinebaug river, skirting the cem- etery, and insures an adequate sup- ply for all cemetery purposes during drought periods in summer. The in- sallation of this engine causing an extraordinary expenditurs, the receipts of the association during the past year were somewhat exceeded by the expenses. The treasurer's report shows. that there is a growing tendency to take advantage of the perpetual care of icts plan of the association and 'the fund used for this purpose is con- stantly increasing. According to the size of the plot to be cared for, the payments for perpetual care are §50 or $100, and may be more. The grow- ing number of lots cared for under this fund makes the cemetery more beautiful each year, a fact that is coming to be more and more appreci- ated, All of the assoctation's funds, with the exception of $1,500 loaned the town of Killingly, the reports show, are invested in Counecticut savings banks. Those interested in the cemetery and knowing of the amount of pains- taking detail work that its administra- tion and supervision entail are appre- ciative of the management given by ths association's officers, Borough Notes.

Other reports of the church show that twenty-one persons were recetved dur- ing 1911, ten on confession of faith and eleven by letter, The number of new members received in the Sun- day school just equaled the number lost from the school by death.
