6 FORBIDDEN FLOWERS O
Q @ 9 Q Q G o . Q G o o . @ Q

Bishop Lillis OF Kansas City has
issued an edict that hereafter no
flowers viii be permitted at funer-
ais in any OF the Roman Catholic
Churches OF his diocese. The order
will be received with marked APP
provo, by all sensible people.
There has been a growing tenden-
oy against funeral flowers for some
time. Money is uselessly expended.
We too often neglect the sick until
death relieves their suffering and
then 10 assuage our guilty con-
science We rush to the nearest flo
raj shop and order flowers This is
TO show our grief and our respect
for the deceased. or supposed to do
this, but too frequently it is to make
amends for our neglect
There is a beautiful sentiment in
flowers at funerals. but the senti-
ment can be expressed in other and
more sensible ways Often those who
cannot AFFORD to buy. send flowers
that soon wither and are forgotten.
Frequently relatives of the deceased
foolishly spend money for flowers
when the money is badly needed in
the household. If flowers must be
given, simple Offering should suf-
fee. Elaborate designs have
spectacular appearance, but the
money wasted in this way could be
much better spent.
Flowers in the sick room are al
ways welcome. They add CHEEKY
atmosphere 10 the distressed sur
roundings. Sick people appreciate
little friendly acts and an offering
of flowers is always welcomed. The |
tired eyes of the sick are rested |
when they gaze on flowers. Their |
perfume is tonic and they remind |
one that friends are thinking of you. |
The flowers are silent messengers |
and carry with them thoughtful ex-
pressions of remembrance. After
death has taken our friend or dear
one from US. the flowers have lost
their usefulness. They are mute ex-
pressions of grief, it is true, but
only the living can understand this.
The dead is no longer interested.
The custom of sending elaborate
horal offerings to rest upon the
grave of the deceased has been sad
ly abused. Bishop Lillis takes a
and sensible view of the
custom. He no doubt has in his
diocese many poor people who can
not afford TO spend money for flow
ers at funerals. After all, it is
extremely foolish to become a
slave to any custom. Any unnec-
essary display at the obsequies
Of the departed should be dis
outraged by clergymen of all de-
nominations. II is matter i'm
which their influence can be direct
y exerted on the individuals in
heir congregation.
We should gladly pay our tribute
o the living when our acts of kind-1
less can be enjoyed. and should not
wait until the call of death has
