Have they considered how much
money has been wasted in copings
and other things that are done to
satisfy some peculiar idea that is sup
posed to beautify the cemetery?
Why not call halt right here and
look into the matter both from a
financial and an artistic standpoint,
secure a landscape architect, if nee
essary, get the regulations of some
of the well-kept cemeteries Of the
east and study them, get posted and
dent have cemeteries looking like
indian burying grounds?
What would cur city paras look
like is every citizen would lie permit
ted to plant few flowers, let more
weeds grow, or some odd, peculiar
idea of their own as to the way of
beautifying the place?
We should make of our "cities of
the dead" beautiful and enuring tenn
pies of art. preserving to future gen.
erations those memorials and at
tributes that endeared our loved
ones. accentuating civilization that
has attracted the admiration of the
world.
| do not wish to condemn any one
in authority for not knowing any bet
ter system than the present one. We
are making our city more modern
every day and we should wake up to
the fact that the ways of fifty years
ago are not in keeping even in our
cemeteries.
would suggest that a landscape
architect should be employed by the
city to park and lay out the new por-
ton of Mountain View cemetery on
the lawn system, the owner of each
lot to have the right to crest any
proper stone monument or sepulchral
structure such as has been approved
by the cemetery committee.
The owner OF each lot should have
the right to cultivate shrubs and
plants in the lot, but all such shrubs
must be of such kind only as will
not interfere with adjoining lots
The tastes of individuals in regard to
the style of their improvements
should not be interfered with any

Our "Cities of the Dead"

We are striving to make our city
a place that tourists will praise;
which they do, as the writer has
often heard remarks about what a
clean place Ashland is. Our parks
are certainly well kept Except for a
certain big signboard) and far sur
PASS parks of much larger cities for
teauty and natural surroundings.
There is one department that is
sadly neglected, and that is our city
cemeteries. A visit to these places
will show how completely the city
council has overlooked these "cities
of the dead; economical, suppose.
Lots were simply blocked out, then
Guartered, with no path between the
quarter sections, necessitating the
owners of the east quarter sections
TO be imposed on if the owners of
the west quarter sections wish to
build an ugly, concrete or wooden
fence up against the face of an ex-
pensive memorial. There are no rules
OF regulations to prevent any lot own
er putting up any kind OF mon
strosity, which has been done, with
old tin cans galore. making the place
look more like the city dumping
ground than the Sacred city of the
dead" Is it any wonder that bodies
have been disinterred and shipped
elsewhere for decent burial?
l understand that the city council
has ordered more of the Mountain
View cemetery laid out in this same
way. They also have placed at the
entrance two beautiful CD concrete
posts and have erected in the center
of the cemetery very imposing cor
rugated iron tool house; a necessity,
of course, but why the location?
The writer has inquired why our
cemeteries should not be laid out on
the lawn plan, with suitable regula-
tions as to grave markers and me-
MORALS, somewhat similar to those
used in cemeteries in the east, but
tfose in authority seem to think that
the people are too poor to pay for the
upkeep. But, do they know how
much more such a system will cost?
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1913-11-17

more than necessary, yet in justice
to the interests of the whole the
council should reserve to itself the
right of preventing or moving any
erection, enclosure or inscription
which may be injurious to the imme-
diate locality or prejudicial to the
general good appearance of the
grounds or which shall, in the judg-
ment of the superintendent, prevent
the easy and proper care of the
graves or lots, no mound or grave to
be raised exceeding two and one-half
inches about the surface of the lot.
Enclosures around burial lots,
grave guards and trellises should be
considered useless membranes,
and should therefore be forbidden.
Boundaries or lots should be marked
with corner posts set level with the
surface of the ground.
For the accommodation of those
who do not wish to purchase family
lots certain portions of the ground
should be set apart to be sold for
single graves and should be sodded
level with the surrounding ground.
In order to prevent a crowded appear
ance of stones or markers on the lots,
and to preserve the general lawn
plan of the cemetery, the grave mark
ers should not exceed ten inches
above the surface of the ground.
Where lot is owned by two or more
it is recommended that they unite in
erecting a joint memorial
Monuments, markers and memorial
structures should be of granite, mar
BILE or standard bronze. Some of the
larger cemeteries of the east do not
permit the use of any material ex-
cept granite. Corner posts should be
of stone, metal or terracotta, not ex-
ceeding eight inches square and not
less than one foot in length. The
upper surface should be set level
with the surface of the earth. The
numbers of the lot and block should
be cut on the upper surface of two
lof the corner posts. The others
might have the initials or name of lot
owner.
All foundations and underground
work should be built by the city. All
monuments and markers should be
placed upon foundations of solid ma
sonry.
The use of chairs on lots should be
disapproved. Untitled vases are un-
slightly and should be removed, as
should be wire designs containing
| faded flowers.
The advance of people in civiliza-
tion and refinement is generally very
clearly shown by its care for the
bodies of it's dead. AS man emerges

Manages Factory From Cell.

Leo NJ Frank, under sentence Of
death for the killing of Mary Pha-

b. Kaufman, warden. sam =. Cron-

fee until the January elections.
Although Frank was in the prison
tower under sentence of death at
the time of the elections in the order
this did not deter his associates from
again placing the fortunes of the
organization, which is charitable in
purpose, in the hands of the young
pencil factory superintendent.
Still Runs Factory.
The reelection Of Frank followed
the announcement that the condemn
ed man had been continued in the
service of the pencil factory as SUI
perintendent, which position he oCCu-
pied when the murder of Mary Pha-
gan was committed.
For several weeks he has directed
the affairs Of the pencil factory from
his cell in the jail. Those who are in
close touch with him say he has
every detail Of the business at his
fingers tips. and that he handles the
affairs as if he were back at his
desk in, the little office

president Of the B'nai Birth as well

tory for many months regardless of
the success Of the fight for his life.
for present indications point to a
fight in the courts unparalleled in the
annals Of legal procedure in Georgia.
Hearing May Be Delayed
The hearing for new trial on Oc-
tuber !. just six days before Frank
is sentenced to hang. probably will
be postponed for several weeks so
that Solicitor General Hugh Dorsey
may prepare his answer.
The Bnai Birth also honored Leon

Sir Thomas Upton is coming TO
America next year in his fourth at
tempt to lift the America Cup. Friends
Of the famous sportsman say that
ne may at the same time try to win
an American girl as his bride. Sir
Thomas admits he is considering the
matter.
Thomas Dryer, one Of the closest
friends of the yachtsman. was quoted
recently as saying that when the cup
challenger returns to his own coun-
try next year he VIII take with him
the coveted cup and a Yankee bride.
Upton was asked about it in Lon
don. He answered:
Don't You think a bachelor of my
experience has learned discretion by
now? You can say this, however:
"'Such a lucky event as the win
ming of an American wife and the
America Cup in one trip is aIno st
more than mortal man can expect,
but | am hoping that Dewar's fore
cast may come true
But Lipton's friends are laughing at
the idea that he mas reached years
of discretion So far, they admit he
has kept little Dan Cupid at bay, but
they declare that his days as d bach
elOr are numbered
If he doesn't return with an Amer-
can bride he viii surely fail vic

Sir ThomaS in interviews has ad-
mitted that he has been deeply i'm
pressed by all four types
He has met many American girls
and he will probably meet many more
when he comes here next year. May
he he will select one of them AS hls
bride. or may be he will seek his wife
on the British Isles
Which type will he choose?
