Telephone 434, ey SAYS IN CEMETERY WAS "STRIPPED OF SOD Prope: Supervision Is Like- * ly to be Sought by County Council (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Jun:e 17--The charge that the country plot in the Union Cem- etery was being stripped of sod for use in other parts of the cemetery was made by Reeve J. M. Kenny, chairman of the county property com- mittee, in a report to the county council in session here last week. The county plot is used for the inter» ment of those who die in poverty apd whose bodies are not claimed for burial by relatives or friends. Reeve Kenny could not sce why this plot was not given the same care as other plots in as much as the county was paying for its upkeep. In commenting upon Reeve Kenny's report, Reeve Croxall, of Whitby township, stated that he had recently inspected ' Groveside Cemetery and found that the county's plot in this case was not being properly looked after. Whereas the grass was kept trim in all other parts of the cenietery the county's plot wore a neglected appearance. The council will demand that the officials of both cemeteries accord proper supervision of the county's plots.

The present poles may have to be replaced as they have done ser- vice for over thirty-five years.
