During the past week, the liberal
spirited people of Rebersburg assisted
by a few persons in the country near

over six hundred feet. The walk be-
gine st the Reformed church and leads
along a portion of the Ualon cemetery.
The improvement will prove a great
convenience and the efforts of those
who are responsible for it will be ap-
preciated, An extension of the walk
for a hundred snd fifty feet would
give better satisfaction, and make the
improvement complete. Probably the
opposition to this extension will, at
some future time, yleld to the wish of
the msjority, when the good work
begun will be completed.

A count of appropriation bills before
the house appropriations committee
shows that they carry a total of $114,-
000,000 or within $11 000,000 of the rec-
ord-breaking sum of money asked of
the same committee in the session of
1911. The committee Is struggling to
get the bills within the $55 000 000 or
$57,000,000 which it is estimated the
state will have available for use in the
