1940 Annual Report -------- AN N UAL R~PORT of the City of Salina, Kansas For the YEAR ENDING December 31, 1940 «» Compiled by Cf-JARLSS E. BANKER CITY CL¡::RK I ntt'oduction 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 wa" so great that I have issued one nearly 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 date; tax levy and valuation, 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.

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 the 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 placing 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 wh~ 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? 38
