Why Buried With Head to the West

Why Buried With Head to the West,
The usual posture Of the dead Is
with the feet eastward and the head
toward the west--the fitting attitude
OF those who look for their Lord,
"WhOse name Is the East" and who
will come to judgment in the regions
of the dawn suddenly. But 1t was
the ancient usage Of the church that
the martyr, the bishop, the saint, and
even the priest, should occupy In their
sepulture position the reverse Of the
secular dead, and lie down with their
feet westward and their heads to the
rising sun. The position Of the crozier
and the cross on ancient sepulchers of
the clergy record and reveal this fact.
The doctrine suggested by such a
burial was that these mighty men
would be honored with first resur-
rection, and as their Master came on
from the East they were to arise and
follow the Lamb as he went; mas
much as they, with him, would ad-
vance to the judgment Of the general
multitudes, the anclents and the saints
which were worthy to judge and reign.

PEOPLES COLUMN.

To the Public:
In letter to the voters of Cecil
County Mr.. Joseph T. Tyson clearly
shows that he is unfamiliar with the
Constitution of the State of Mary
land. He bids for votes on plea
for reduction in the salary" paid
the Register of Wills. Mr.. Tyson
should know that the Register of
Wills Office is not a "salaried" Of
flee before asking the suffrage Of
the voters. The Clerk of the Court
and the Sheriff also come under the
Constitution, and are paid for the
work they do, and not by salary"
They derive their pay from fees
paid by the parties who have bust
ness in these offices, and not from a
salary" out of the funds derived
from taxes on property. All Mr..
Tyson's talk about saving the tax
payers money is nothing but ROT.
But why try to fool the voters on
false plea, Mr.. Tyson? Why not
stand on your merits, for the people
are the jury of last resort that are
going to Judge the facts?
If you are so unfamiliar with the
Constitution of your State and the
Office of Register of Wills as your
circular shows, do you think all the
recipients Of your circular letter are
like you?
You speak of the Legislature
passing law reducing the SALARY"
of the Register of Wills $500 a year.
Why, man, do you suppose the
Legislature has power to change the
Constitution of the State? The last
Constitutional Convention cost the
taxpayers of the State of Maryland
$350,0OO. Do you favor calling
another convention in order to have
a change made whereby Cecil county
can save your imaginary $500
year for six years?
Yours truly,
JOHN F. SPARKLIN.
