Funeral Notice

It was voted in the Official
Board meeting of the Methodist
Episcopal Church last Monday
night that hereafter in funeral
services held in the local church
that the casket would not be
opened. The custom, as it has
been hereto fore, has been ex-
tremly hard for the mourning
friends. 1t is customary for
the friends of the bereaved
family to call at the home dur
ing the days previous to the
funeral services and thus it be-
comes unnecessary, we believe,
to open the casket in the public
service We are of the conviction
that our friends in their deep
sorrow should be the people to
be considered first.

Re- mer, of Birkda1e, by one up in the first round of the British amateur golf 4chanpionship tournament and thus enters the second round. Sixty six matches were down for decision on todays program and interest in the play was undiminished.
 The easy victory yesterday of Charles w. Evans. Jr.. of Chigago, and the way in which Francis Ouimet, of the Woodland Golf club, Mass, open Champion of the United States. came on to his strong game put a stop to the jubilation Of British golfers who had thought that the defeat of Jerome D. TFavers. the United States amateur champion. had practically eliminated the danger of victory of the Ameri- can contingent. It was recognized that the international situation still presents interesting possibilities.
 The victory Of Harold Weber leaves six Arnerican players still in the tournament. These are. Francis Ouirnet woodland Golf club. Mass; Frederick Herreshof, New York Charles W. Evans. Jr., ChiaaBo; Fra ger Hale, Chicago; Harold Weber, To ledo; Arthur G. Lockwoods Belmont Springs, Mass.
