The Chinese bury their dead on
the mountain side where the earth
is dry and there is less danger of
floods. The monuments are built
along the highway to inform the
public of the great men who have
lived and died in the neighborins
villages
A brief history of the dead MAJ
serves as an epitaph, and a tortoise
or dragon, carved into the stone,
symboiizes eternal life.
Death is an expensive proposition
for the Chinaman. Only the leaders
OF community life are honored by
monuments along the highway. But
by the time even the average citi-
zen's funeral expenses are paid
with numerous pallbearers and
teasts for the mourners-well, it's
cheaper to live.
There is an average of one doctor
to every 100000 Chinese. So the
Interchurch World Movement, in
which Americas evangelical bodies
are cooperating, intends TO cut
down funeral expenses for China by
opening a large number of new hos
pitfalls and by strengthening existing
institutions.
