song when They Play God Save the
King" made a great hit ana was
Ioudlv applauded. especially when some
natriOtic scene in accord with the SEN
timent expressed in the song was
thrown upon the canvas. The audience
was highly pleased with the comedy
in which j. A. Murphy and Eloise Will

mer of Augusta. The Board of Health
was represented by the president, DR..

Forms for the proposed bill were pat
forward by the State Board of Health
and after talking the whole matter over
it was left with a committee comroSed of
Frank Redington Of the association, and
DR. Young of the Board of Health. to
work together and draw up a bin that
will be satisfactory TO both the State
Board of Health and the Undertakers AS
ISOLATION, which bill is to be presented to
the Legislature. ii is hoped. this winter.
This is not any move to drive under
takers out of business but to bring them
up to a position desired by the profession.
There will bc two grades. One will be
the regular undertakers. the other
licensed emhalmers. to whom licenses
Will be given by the State Board of
Health after satisfactory examination Le-
fore a committee from the Board of
Health and representative undcrtakers.
Anyone not holding certificates of license
from the board cannot ship bodies by
common carriers
The undertakers claim that by this
move they are seeking to promote public
safety besides bringing themselves into
line with the members of the profession
in other states where similar laws have
been enacted In number of states
there is law governing the shipment of
contagious bodies from one state to an
other and in those states, unless the I'M
dertaker holds license from the State
Board of Health, the bodies cannot be
shipped. The Baggage Masters Associa-
ton requires a certificate of a licensed
embalmer.
Maine undertakers have had this plan
in view for some time and now hope to
see il realized. They are working in per-
feet harmony with the State Board of
Health, both seeking a common end
protection for the public.
