to md in this list of recipients of civil
list pensions is that of Lady Murray.
She is to receive $3.50 year 'fn recog-
milton of her late husbands services
ary.'" Nothing is said in this case
about "straitened circumstances" but
it is fairly safe to say that Lady Muir
ray would not be getting this money
unless it were known that she needed
it. Her late husband. Englands
Great photographer" of his day, was
a thrifty Scot, and. as editor of the
Oxford Dictionary. a position which he
held for upward of twenty-five years,
must have enjoyed an adequate salary.
but his last illness was a long and.
presumably. costly one, which may well
have made inroads upon his savings.
~
The story of the making of the lexi
con of which Sir James Murray was
the editor is one of the romances OF
the literary history of England. Be-
gun nearly sixty years ago. it is not
yet completed. Scholars all over the
world were appealed to to send in
periods and they made a wonderful
response. More than 1000 of them. in
cluding many Americans, took part in
the work and turned in. from first to
last, more than five million quotations.
The record in this respect was achieved
by a resident of the Hornsey district
of London, who sent 100000. An
American scholar came second. how
ever, with $4,000. This was Rev. J.
Pierson of Ionia, Mich. Prof F. A.

intended and organized the American
contributors. prominent among whom
was Richard Grant White. the author
of Words, Their Use and Abuse"
Sir James Murray died almost ex-
actly a year ago. His widow, whom
he married in 1867. was formerly a
Miss Rutherford of Kendall. The fact
that they had twelve children. of whom
six were daughters, may possibly re-
veal an additional reason for the
granting of her civil list pension to
Lady Murray.

rules which it recommends every one
to follow in the erecting of memorials
for the dead warriors.
First and most important is that the
tomb. no matter of what design, shall
be recognized instantly as the grave
of a German soldier.
Second, that the original grave mark
erected by the comrades of the dead
man shall be preserved. as far as pos
sible, in the permanent design, as many
of the hurried burials have been
marked by a simplicity and an indi-
viduality that should not be lost.
Third. the tombs should be left as far
as possible in the original places, but
when transference is unavoidable
an attractive place should be chosen.
preferably in the midst of trees.
Fourth, that when number of SOL
diers are buried in one grave. the grave
should be proportionately as large as
the number of men buried there.
Fifth, the fundamental form of the
German soldiers tomb should be
simple cross. rising out of the ground.
When 1t has been erected by the SOL
diers comrades, it should be preserved
unaltered, as no greater thing of
beauty than this simple cross can be
found
The committee recommended that
thing to be avoided in any case is the
intrusting of the final designs to any
so-called artists happening to be with
the troops. 1t also recommended

EIHE German people do NOT forget
their dead. Even the graves of
people long dead. and almost
unknown to the present gener-
alton, are kept forever green. 1t is al
most a part Of a Germans religion to
20 and sit a while in the quietness of
the graveyard.
When one stands in the Central ceme-
terry In Vienna. In that little square of
green where lie so many of the worlds
most famous musicians-Beethove
Mozart, Schubert. Gluck, Offenbach and
many others-one feels almost as
though he could write a song. When
one visits, in the same city, the old
church crypt where the King of Rome
lies buried one sees by the hushed by
ISLANDERS and fresh flowers the tender
ness the memory Of this boy has awak-
sned In the toughest heart.
How many German soldiers have
found their last resting place not only
in q foreign, but in an enemy's land
in Flanders, in France. in Russia-so
far from the Fatherland, SO wide from
the Heimat. Somehow the earth is not

home. and the flowers grow better
there.

photographs of famous tombs showing
how each grave can be marked by some
individual sign of the dead within. The
exhibition demonstrated the difference,
by samples, of well proportioned and
poorly proportioned crosses, and the
committee has tried to impress on the
public that the first and most beautiful
thing is simplicity.
