Egyptians First to
Employ the Epitaph

The word "epitaph" originally
meant a sepulcher. Then 1t was ap-
piled to the monument marking a
place OF burial, and later 1t was used
exclusively to designate the inscrip-
ton on the monument.
Inscriptions Of this kind, II appears,
were originated by the Egyptians.
From the Egyptians the custom of
using them spread to the Greeks and
Romans and finally to all Christian
nations, says the Pathfinder. Usual
ly an epitaph consists Of some senti-
ment or expression of affection or
faith in addition to the name of the
deceased and the dates of his birth
and death.
Despite the fact that they are inya-
rlably associated with such solemn
things as death and bereavement, cpl
taphs are often highly amusing. In
some instances their humOr is evil
IDENTIFY deliberate and intentional, but
usually il Is the result of faulty Eng
fish or some accident of diction.

Nature Has Provided
the Eye Most Suitable

The American Review Of Reviews
quotes from the Bulletin of the French
Societe de Biologie some interesting
facts about the shape and position of
the eyes In animals, according as to
whether they hunt or are hunted.
In the hunters, the eyes are In the
front of the head and close together;
they are deep in their sockets and
protected by dorsal ridges and by the
masticatory muscles. Thus, the BIZ
nocular field of vision of such animals
Is large, while the panoramic field Is
limited. Hunters that lie in wait for
their prey have pupils vertically ell
optical; those that chase their prey
have round pupils.
In hunted animals, the eyes are at
the sides of the head and wide apart,
with shallow orbits and no protection
from ridges or muscles, so that they
usually protrude Hence their binoc-
ular field is very small or entirely
lacking, bu their panoramic field en-
braces almost the whole horizon.
In the fast runners, the pupil forms
a horizontal elllpse, which assists in
broadening the field of vision; poor
runners have round pupils. The frog,
both hunter and hunted, has frontally
placed eyes, but they protrude and
have crosswise elliptlcal pupils.

Rural Churches.

The rural church is failure and
asinine denominationalism is the
cause.
This is the Indictment returned
against the religious denominations
at the annual conference of the
American Country Life association
in Columbus, Ohio.
And there are few, even though
they be strong denominationalists,
but that win admit there is some
ground for the Indictment.
In a rural life where consolidated
schools, unified farm bureaus and
cooperative marketing associations
have been developed, the church
stands as the only community or
ganization that is divided.
Everyone has seen the tragedy of
the failing rural churches in the
bleak, stark abandoned church
buildings that may be found in most
any rural community.
Left to their own resources, with
out the interference of countless
UNCONVENTIONAL officials, most com
munities would unite on a church
that would serve the needs of all
the people.
But perhaps the rural churches
need an example from their big city
brothers.

Especial to The Daily Worker)

Ell PASO, Texas, Nov. a.
Somewhat on a par with Com
pers' assertion that he did not
endorse "a third party move
ment" in the past election, is the
statement in the last paragraph
of the report of the executive
council on the recent campaign
and the question of political
activity where it is advocated
that, 1.-THE American labor
movement must be as free from
political party domination now
as at any time in the history of
our movement" Actually this
means subordination to capital
list parties.
Permanent Campaign Committee.
To accomplish this, a program is
proposed which is devised effectually
to defeat any movement to bring the
labor unions into real labor party,
by giving them something "just as
good" in the form of non-partisan
campaign committees to be main
tanned permanently.
This is called extending the politi-
cal activity of the American labor
movement Actually this means to
60 along with discontinued groups Of
labor and steer them back to capt
talist parties as promptly as possible
This shown also by the proposal
that labor should in future participate
in primary elections, as well as in the
final elections, thus making the ere

enemies" begin earlier and become
more nearly connected with capitals

The following is a summary OF these
future political activities as put out
by the publicity service of the A. F
of L. convention:
an the direction Of extending the
political activity of the American la
Dor movement it is recommended:
"That all non-partisan political
campaign committees be maintained
on a permanent basis;
THAT particular attention be paid
to the political organization Of women
in the trade union movement and in
trade union families;
THAT the present cumbersome bal
lot be so changed as to make indie
pendent voting easier;
THAT changes in laws be advocated
where necessary, to make the func
tioning OF Independent political move
ments more readily effective;
THAT labor participate more gen
orally than heretofore in primary cleo
tions;
THAT plan be devised whereby
forward-looking groups composed Of
persons who are not trade unionists
may be enlisted in labor's non-par
tisan political campaigns.
