have decreased one-half in the past
ten years. 1t is sad commentary on
the passing Of many old-style people.
In Toxic there are about fifteen
merchants who sell the bamboo for
the pipes. and the Chinese bamboo Is
considered the best. This business

cruing are often very small. This
business ia practically limited to old
men, They take off the silver or brass
bowl and mouthpiece and put In new
bamboo stem, then clean the whole

seems as good as new.
Another parsonage among the street
merchants is the Amazake-ya. His
cry, Anal. Anal! Sweet, Sweet is 80
suggestive Of sweet things that the
cry brings the children from every
quarter. The men who ply this trade
are generally old. They form one OF
Tokio's picturesque street elements
with their two large red lacquered
boxes on either end of shoulder pole.
Amazake is sold to the street retail
ers from thirteen wholesale merchants
who thus supply the trade.
An applicant who wishes to enter
this business goes to the merchant
with a person who acts as a guaran-
tor, and borrowing the outfit, which
consists of the aforesaid red boxes, is
almost ready to set forth on his trav-

viii settle claims by drawing war

Monument Fund
One of the cardinal principles of
all fraternities is the burial of the
dead and the care of the sick and
distressed. In the past few months
have noted the very Indifferent spirit
our people manifest toward their dead.
A member lives in the order for
years, contributes to its well-being
and support. He dies and after his
body Is buried he is soon forgotten.
In few days weeds and grass are
growing on his grave and it would
take you half day to find out where
the body lay This is absolutely
wrong and shows a very low scale Of
intelligence. The higher people ascend
the scale of civilization, the more
marked are they in the burial and
care of the dead The men and
women who have lived with us and
helped us build this order should have
an abiding place in our hearts for
ever. am recommending that we
create Monument Fund, said fund
to be collected by a secretary elected
by the State Grand Lodge. This fund
be maintained by a tax of 40 cents
per year per member, and whenever a
member dies monument for his grave
be purchased by this department On
this monument will be the name of
the lodge to which he belonged. the
emblem of the order, the deceaseds
name, date of birth and date of death
This being done it would be a very
easy matter to go into any cemetery
and find every Mosaic buried there
Further, / am going to recommend
that one day in the year, some day in
May be set aside as Memorial Day.
On that day all of the lodges in any
city will assemble in the cemetery
clean the graves of deceased members,
plant flowers on them and have
short program, consisting OF music
and a memorial address. do not
mean any great picnic occasion and
parading, but a quiet, solemn affair
to be done at the proper time without
foolishness and noise. The people can
assemble at a given hour, do their
work, have the program and be on
their way home in an hours time.

not accommodating property Many of
our old orders would have been gone

property in halls, etc, scattered in
various parts of the country. | am

place and keep within the states a
reasonable amount of finances. You
now have your state and uniform tax,
