1939 Annual Report
ANNO AL REPORT
of the
City of Salina, Kansas
for the
YEAR ENDING
December 31, 1939
.
Compiled by
CHARLES E. BANKER
CITY CLERK
Introduction
In the year of 1914 I compiled and published the first annual report in
pamphlet form of the City of Salina, and as far as I could learn, it was the
first report ever published in pamphlet form in any city in Kansas at that
time. The demand for the report was so great that I have issued one every
year.
I have tried to arrange the report in such a way that the public could
find all the information that they may desire without running through a
lot of dry statistics. All the receipts and disbursements for each department
have been given, also a lot of general information that is asked for by the
public. There is a list of all the Mayors, City Clerks and Managers that have
served the City from 1870 to dare; tax levy and valuation for the last ten
years and other statistics that have been added from time to time.
On behalf of the administrative organization of the City, I wish to
express my appreciation for the encouraging support and kindly co-operation
of the citizens of Salina, which has made any success of the work done in
the past year possible.
Q espectfully submitted,
~~

Chapel View of Hillcrest Memorial Mausoleum
You have your choice of just two things: the grave,
or a snowy-white marble crypt, Which shall it be?
A fund for perpetual maintenance is provided, so that purchasers of
space may be sure that the building will always be well cared for, without
any additional expense to the purchasers.
GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY OF SALINA
It is unfortunate that the selection of a family plot is so generally ignored
until the hour of grief. The relatively simple task becomes a distressing
burden. Every family should be spared this ordeal by selecting the plot, and
a family memorial with the same sensible foresight and economy which
prompts us to provide insurance and to make Our wills. Urge' your friends
and relatives to avoid this distressing experience by selecting the plot and
family memorial in advance. In the confusion and emotion which comes
with sorrow it is impossible to consider carefully the most desirable locations,
the probable number of interments eventually to be made, the type of memorial
to be placed on the plot, the planting that should beautify tho setting and
other important factors. If your family plot has been selected under condi.
tions which made a careful study impossible, then the cemetery will readily
change the location, applying the cost of the original site to the new lot.
GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY and HILLCREST MEMORIAL MAUS.
OLEUM, are owned and under the control of the City of Salina. All receipts
collected from the sale of lots and from all sources are applied on the upkeep
and beautifying of the ground. If at any time the receipts are not sufficient,
the City must according to law, levy a tax for the support of the cemetery,
so there will always be a positive guarantee that the cemetery will be perpetual.
The lot owners have the privilege of placin~ any style of monument on lots
they may desire, or may build private mausoleums. The rules of the cemetery
are very liberal and are made for the benefit of the lot owners who have a
voice in the management just the same as in any other part of the city
government.
Eventually you will want to decide on one or the other. Why not decide
now, calmly and carefully, giving due consideration to all of the factors
involved?
