CONCLUSIONS

N our plan n adopted the adminls-
tra,ion OF approximately 10 agencies
dealing with labor and Industries VIII
be merged into one department. The
governor makes but one appointment
uhe director OF tho department of
labor and induRtriesl. instead of II,
but the other appointments are made
by heads that are directly responsi-
bic for their work. The operation of
this plan should result In more co.
ordination and less duplication of
work. and In addition promote more
economy and Efficiency.
A proper and intelligent admins
tration OF the functions OF the pro-
posed division OF Industrial relations
ought 10 insure TO our state indus
trial peace ~ there In q genuine
desire on the rart OF all parties for
industrial pence while securing and
maintaining their economic rights.
We believe thai there IL no reason
why this machinery. II cr-Aied by the
state, should not be able TO function

WHY
Costly Funerals Are Well
coined In China

In China every item OF expense Is
welcomed by relatives Of a dead per-
son. Indeed. II 10 q mark of great re-
gard for the dead parent should
Chinese contract enormous debt IN the
administration Of the last rites.
A truly good son will effect enough
debts to keep him a slave to the
memory Of his dead parent for years.
The funeral must be accompanied with
all the pomp the son can afford for
borrow. Net only must the funeral of
the father or mother be pompous. but
the oldest son Of the family must also
maintain the honor Of his ancestors
and spend all the worldly goods he
has accumulated to take care of such
grave hills as he can claim belonging
to those ancestors.
As q result Of the obligation of
reverence to tho dead New Years day
Is set for the annual visit to the grave
yard by the family. In most cases 1t
Is the occasion Of family reunion far
and wide to Join In the ceremony. For
days prior to the time their carts and
wheelbarrows can be seen In long pro-
cession along the narrow roads. AT
night the squeaking Of the vehicles.
never creased, sings a funereal dirge.
When the family is assembled In the
town nearest the graveyard, the old
rst man leads the procession to the
dirt hill under which his father rests.

himself Of not being worthy of his
parent and asks the fathers aid In
combating the evil spirits that follow

Mr.. G0SLINGTON AIRS VIEWS
Old Gentleman's Philosophy Of Life
Has Something in It Very Much
Worth While.

This morning / met walking along
not at something he saw, but just
laughing to himself at something he
had in his mind, at happy thought.
His face was inclined downward lit
tie and he slowed down little In his
gait, as he had become absorbed in
now. as he passed the peak of this en-
joyment, he lifted his head again to
its usual level and strobe on again at
his usual gait; his face, however, stj1
smiling. Fortunate is the man that
has in his heart Spring that bubbles
happy thoughts.
Every time l give the brush boy In
my barber shop a nickel | feel
ashamed, for myself and for him.
For him, because he does his work
in careless, inefficient manner; for
myself, because | continue to pay for
such service. And he's a nice boy at
that; cheerful, wellmeaning, polite,
but he simply doesn't know that he
isn't living up TO his privileges, that
he isn't doing the best he could.
i don't know what l can do about 1t
nothing, / suppose. Having started
giving, I must keep on. I would like
to tell him that the one and only way
for anybody, man or boy, to get on In
the world Is to do his work. whatever
it may be, to the very best of his abil-
ity; but this Is something that can't
pluck up the courage to do.-New York
