WEDNESDAY, 'AUGUST 16, 1916., LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER PAGE SEYEKI Ay ''A '''i '.(V" -1 The Better Way PEOPLE'S views vary on the question of burial. To 'some, any discussion of the subject is distasteful, and tliey avoid consideration of it until they are brought face to face with necessity; then they probably allow someone else to act for them. Others consider the preparation for such things important, and they realize that it is wise to attend to it when they have time and opportunity. Still others, especially those? who have lost dear ones, desire to do all in their power that may betoken a respectful service to the memory of those whom they loved. ULTIMATELY the subject must be faced, for the day will come when, as heads of households, we must provide for those who shall pass away from us, and preparation for it is plainly a duty which' should not be indefinitely deferred. THE practice of burying human bodies in the ground, coupled with certain knowledge of what becomes of them there, is responsible for much of the horror and dread of death, while the unsanitary character of this method of burial is a source of un deniable danger to the Jiving. Sir Henry Thompson says: "No dead body is ever placed in the soil without polluting the earth, the air, and the water above and below it." THE "Better Way" makes it very much easier for those who are left behind to lay away their loved ones. It is a plan whereby a number of families co-operate in erecting an imposing mausoleum containing sealed compartments, equipped with sani tary devices, which tend to pres erve the entity of the body in stead of destroying it. The Compartment Mausoleum marks the highest development of present-day burial, customs. It brings within the reach of the average man the finest interment possi ble. Crypt owners are afforded the satisfaction of b.eing prepared to give to thtose most dear to them who depart this life, the bes that it is possible to give, with the certainty that in fuure years their last resting place will stand as secure as the monuments of the ancients. !!5 MARKETS HAVE YOU SEEN OUR ILLUSTRATED BOOKLET?
