One such instance, Mr.. Gawler
states, was the endeavor to give
direct aid to the wooden trade in
Stuart England of the seventeenth
century. An order was issued by
the state that all men were ito be

OF justices of the peace, who per-
formed the magisterial duties Of

to be OF the highest efficiency.
The mortician must be trained
to perform his functions with

call for his services should be able
to feel that he is thoroughly

and a necessary duty. VI
Because Of the deep sense OF
responsibility to the bereaved ones
