Death in Europe
By Charlotte Teller.

WHO wrote
'Every one is afraid to die; that
is the great law of conscious ex-
istence."
THE greatest evil, the worst thing
that can he threatened. is Death.
Tho greatest fear in the world is the
Fear of Death"
It was a German, scropenhauor.
who wrote:
1t was a Russian, Tolstoi, who
preached this gospel:
That to suffer death at the hands
Of ones enernies is better than to
cause their death. even in self de-
Tense.
1t was the philosopher Guyau
Who said:
That al! religion is only a think
ing about death 1t is TO avoid
death that one accepts the idea OF
eternal life.
1t was a Greek. Socrates. who
said:
The life Of a philosopher is
spent in nothing else than thinking
about death"
IT was Roman. Cicero. who said:
IF TO believe in eterna! life is an
illusion, nevertheless l love the il
lIsion. aud shall never give it up
At lea-t there will be no one there
- laugh al me # 1 am wrong"
The Fear Haunts Parents.

thought of death hidden behind his
smile. only his wife has seen the
shadow of the thought in his eyes
Death makes that mother and
that wife almost glad 10 hear that
son or husband has been taken pris-
Cner or that he is coming home
TOO badly wounded TO go out again

Death may be a release for those
who are sick or desperate. Many

Judge Wadhams asserted that. while
he Ia an advocate OF farm prisons. he
would choose the Mutual Welfare League

He believed the Sing Sing cell blocks
should be torn down.
The meeting was held TO discuss the
respective merits of the Wingdale m
Beekman sites " the location OF the new
State prison. Judge Gary said the COM
mission hopes to build one OF The greatest
prisons ever erected In the United States.
Henry c. Henderson OF White Plains IA
yored the selection of the Wingdale site.
considering Beekman unfit from an ag-
%ricuitural point Of view.
