full drive, certainly, but then it is Cemetery.
and fast driving can scarcely be considered AZ
just the thing for the place. In the presence
of the dead, We are naturally impressed with
solemnity and awe, and the respect that man
pays to the dead is one Of the evidences Of
superiority to the brute creation. When.
therefore, we enter the cities Of The dead, we
should not forget the sanctity Of the place. but
remember th,t we are upon consecrated
ground and that only the vulgar and ill-bred
ignore the mute but eloquent evidences OF
death that meet them on every side. We re-
greet to learn that there are persons 80 lost to
sense OF the eternal fitness of things" a.
to indulge in fast driving and run races over
the smooth and level roads In the Metairie
Cemetery. This should be stopped at once,
or it will result in driving away those who
visit the place to indulge in silent commune
with the dead and enjoy the varied beauties
| of the place.
