HEATER ARCADE WEEKLY PROGRAM NEW COFFINS GIVEN A TOUCH OF “JAZZ" X. Bright Color* Displace Con ventional Black. St. Louis.—What will be next! Th* latest Jazz-wrinkle designed to spread cheerfulness instead of deep gloom 1* competing with Jasz musle and Jaxz dancing. It 1* nothing more or less than the jazz era coffins now being shown by dealers. As if net to be outdistanced by the trend of the times, th* casket manufacturers are turning out their finished product clothed in bright exteriors and In teriors instead of the dreary and cheerless conventional blaek colon. A few years ago such a casket would have created a sensation and shocked everyone. But today the casket ha* blossomed forth from an emblem of sadness to a thing of beauty. A visit to several undertaking establishments disclosed many Inter esting changes. More than 200 col or* are used on modern caskets to meet a popular demand. The reason for the revolutionary change In customs incidental to the undertaker’s profession, a* given by a veteran director, was that we now Hve In an age of jasz and that people no longer desire to be sad at funeral services. The old-fashioned and cheap ly fabricated shroud of conventional black and other somber colors has given away to colorful and expen sive suits and dresses. The gloomy crepe one was wont to see appended to the door where a death had occurred has given way to wreaths of beautiful and vari colored flowers. There are so many styles of caskets being made and such a wide variety of colors utilized that the majority of undertakers have no space for the 150 samples. Funeral directors also point out that funeral services are not as long and drawn out as heretofore, but state that there Is the same amount of respect shown at such occasions. Even the time-honored hearse has been Jazzed up. Instead of the con ventional deep black and highly or namented vehicle, they now are painted with a bright shade of gray to add a touch of cheerfulness to the cortege.
