LOS ANGELES, Cal, September 10
Lost in a canyon on San Clemente Is
land with no water and but little hope
of being found by other members of his
party, United States Senator Flint spent
seven hours Monday.
Mr.. Flint was a member of a party
composed of Clifford Pinchot United
States forester; Stewart Edward White
the author. and Charles F. Holder
San Clemente is thirtyfive miles from
Catalina. The party spent several days
in fishing, tramping and exploring the
Indian mounds.
Monday they went on one of these ex-
ploring expeditions. On the return Sen
ator Flint saw what he thought was short
cut to camp. He tried 1t. and soon
found himself working down the narrow
runway of deep canyon.
The senator reached the bottom of the
gorge the sides of which rose abruptly.
He turned to go back, but found that he
could not do so.

but fell and rolled fifty feet, being
bruised severely.
His only way out was to keep straight
on. 1t was desperately hard work. creep

he saw the ocean before him. He
scrambled down the last hundred yards

his coat and waved it as token of dis

of the fishermen, who rescued him.

Strictly defined is the etiquette gov
erning funerals, and only by observing it
can one avoid giving offense. For in
stance, it is customary, as soon as
death occurs, for the immediate relatives
and associates to be notified either by
telephone. post or telegram. AS i'm
mediate relatives are too sorrow stricken
to attend to such matters, an Intimate
friend or relative is usually asked to car
ry out such details, and from that time
until the family returns from the ceme-
terry is in charge In point of fact, such

thing is required All persons who may
feel privileged to call to offer sympathy
must be met by this efficient individual.
She must look after shopping, which.
strangely enough to those who have not
had death in the family. must be done at
once. She buys or orders gowns, II
necessary, sees the dressmaker and ar
ranges fittings. She sends home hats
and bonnets to be tried on for approval.
and the selection of gloves, wells and
even wraps falls to her lot
Nor is this all. If she is wise she

physician before they arrive at the point
of breaking down. The writing of notes is
part of her duties, and she must be able
to tell details concisely. but not brusquely.
all this, there Is a constant demand upon
her sympathies, and she must, too bear
in mind that it is only by not OVERRIDING
that she will be helpful; that 1t will not be
of the slightest use for her to wear her
self out, and to last through the trying
time she must eat, sleep and not become
exhausted.
On the day OF the funeral the duties OF
this friend of the family are incessant

strength to arrange the flowers herself
