AS DEATH STALKS
Eat Lunch in Mortuary Chapel
Pail Bearers as Walters

New York, Feb. 29.-One hundred
and fifty women the youngest 60 and
the oldest more than so, cheerfully
discussed death and why one should
not be afraid of it, but should well
come it when it comes, at meeting
yesterday of the Sunset club to which
they belong.
Also they ate ice cream and cake
and had a drop Of harmless punch, all
of which they received from the hands
of four pallbearers with boutonnieres
in their lapels, while listening to
hymns and sacred songs by quartet.
The fact that the function was held
in a mOrtuary-at least in the Camp
bell Funeral church establishment at
66th street and Broadway-and the
fact also that the Sunset club mem
Ders were all dressed in black did not
make it particularly lugubrious.
Mrs. G. A. H. Rugge, founder OF
the organization, explained to re-
porter that it is made up or women

But we have another purpose"
Mrs. Rugge explained. I'VE are try
ing to make the last hours of life as
bright and cheerful as possible for
each other by rem lowing the dread of
death and finally getting Ito a point
where we welcome it with open arms
We do all we can to make each other
happy and comfortable"
There is a Junior Sunset club, Mrs
Rugge said. to which anyone between
six and 60 may belong, and the
object of this is to make life pleasant
for older folk. so that the Juniors
them selves will find life beautiful
when they become old.

MILITARY RULE IN
KOREA To END SOON

TOXIC, July 10 Correspondence
of The Associated Press)-That all
aspects of military rule should be
completely banished from Korea is
the opinion of representative Japan
ese Thus only, they say, can Japan
hope to re-establish peace and order
among the Korean people.
1t is generally admitted here that
the disaffection is not removed, but
merely quiescent, ready to burst forth
anew once the existing military pres
sure is removed.
Institution of civilian government
and removal Of the present gendarme
police system are believed here to be
necessary. The gendarmes are held
responsible for cases of brutality and
mistrcatment, the soldiers being only
responsible, it is declared, for the kill
ing of Koreans in the Christian
church at Cheam-ni. In this case,
says the Herald of Asia, a Japanese
pOilCeHluU Hiu DttH HluGueTcu, anu
his body mutilated. The gendarmer-
lie told the arriving soldiers an exag-
gerated story, says the newspaper,
and the young troops joined the gen.
darmes in massacre of the people.
Once the gendarmerie method Of
policing the peninsula is removed,
and the people given more local az;
tonomy, such as the villages of Japan
enjoy, the newspaper thinks, the Ko-
reans may see that their best inter
ests lie In the peaceful acceptation of
things as they are.
Responsible organs Of opinion here
favor making Korea an integral part
of the Japanese empire politically as
it already is territorially. Korea, they
conceive might be made province of
Japan, with u civil governor and prop
er representation in the Japanese
diet. But before this is possible, the
newspapers think, the Koreans must
pass through the necessary educa-
tion and show themselves prepared
for seif-government.
