COROiJER'S JOB
E
STRANGE DUTIES
j1 v'"r--""' ". :saaSBSBSHBBasBSBSBSBBSBSBBBaBMBWSBft'-:'r'4 '.
Recent Statistics From Multno
mah .County Coroner's Office
Show Many Duties of Official.
. Does anybody! want the job of
coroner? V ,
Don't all speak at once. A glance
at the primary ballot might Indicate
that other public positions appeal
to a larger class of people. The cor
oner is one, the public servants
who has wLat is often called i a
"thankless job."
Multnomah county has three men in
the coroner's office. They" are Coroner
Karl C. Smith. ChleT Deputy Leo
Ooetsch and Deputy Robert A. Calkins.
The coroner la the man who performs
the tasks which most people would shun.
When a person drops dead on -the street.
Is killed In an accident, commits, suicide
or meets death in some other unusual
way, the coroner is the man who must
reach the scene an quickly as possible
and remove the body
It matters not to the coroner whether
the man is of high or low estate, he
takes the .body to the county morgue 'as
quickly as possible and sets out to find
relatives. ' . j . '
MTJ8T BREAK SAD SEWS f I j '
One of his unpleasant tasks is to
break the sad news to the nearest rela
tives. "I generally tell them right out that
X am rrom the coroner's office and that
some member ot their family is dead and
have it over with as quickly as possible,
said Goetsch. "It Is better for them and
for me." -. -
Occasionally a dead man is found
along the railroad track or in some north
end lodging house, with no identification
papers. Goetsch then has the long and
tedious task of finding the nearest rela
tive. Sometimes it is impossible to locate
friends or relatives, so the body la cre
mated at the expense of the county.,
INTEREST IK CAMPAIGN ? -
The coroner hasj taken exceptional in
terest .in the accident prevention cam
paign, conducted by The Journal and has
endeavored through the powers vested
in him to bring careless drivers to Jus
tice. In every automobile accident
where Coroner Smith believes negligence
or carelessness was shown an. inquest
has been held.-- , I :.i ' . ;':
The coroner . is also severe in his
criticism of men I who .rent canoes to
children and others not experienced in
the art of rowing. . He has assisted the
harbor patrol officials in rigid enforce
ment of the city Ordinance covering the
renting of eanoes and, has also asked
boathouse men to inform canoeists on
the rules ot navigation in the river. -The
coroner found that many people could
not tell the difference at night between
a passenger boat or towboat. By having
the harbor : rules posted many people
have been saved from death by becom
ing entangled in
the tow line between
a steamer and a
raft of logs.
EXE VA TORS AID MATCHES
Inexperienced elevator e operators are
another class the: coroner has consider
able trouble -with. ! He believes that those
who are allowed to operate passenger
elevators Should be well trained and be
of a quiet, unexcitable temperment.
Matches left within' the reach of chil
dren and burning candles often bring an
unwelcomed call to the coroner. . s

Name Printed
' Millions will ning . "America1 on
this dduble holiday.. Comparatively
few know the i origin ' of the name.
Its history and 'its symbolism are de
scribed : In a .communication i to yie
National Geographic society by John
tt. Flnley. as follows: ! ' .
Amriea,-a , name that was flrst
heard on the planet, or at any rate first
put on a prlnted'page, according to the
best authorities, in the village of St. Die.
among the Vosges mountains. -in the
east of France.; often .called the bap
tismal font of America)
"On a pilgrimage to this valley of the
Vosges some years ago, I found stilt
standing the cloisters where the schol
ars had lived who wrote The introduc
tion to . Ptolemy's 1 Cosmography, . the
book In which it was suggested that the
name 'America' be given to the newly
discovered fourth continent, and who
prepared the now famous map on which
the emerging continent was identified.
There, too, I found the site of the .old
printing- shop, and the house Itself in
which the printer, Jean Basin, had
lived. .a
"At the beginning of the war the
Germans had occupied it, and, in 1017,
their guns looked down upon it from
the "blue line of the Vosges.' The cloist
ers, close under the mountains, I found
in a . recent and second pilgrimage had
not been damaged, but there were many
houses that had been destroyed by shell
or by wanton fire, though' Jean Basin's
was still standing. - f "
"But ? the printer who- a few years
ago reproduced in facsimile the famous
book, had had both legs Shot ofr-while
crossing the bridge one day between the
two parts of the village. 'Alas 1' he
said, when he learned that he must die,
'alas I I shall hot be the first to carry
flowers to Btrassburg for f he had
dreamed of the day when Straasburg,
where rests one of the original copies of
thiat famous book, again would be within
French borders. - ;
"It ia a significant fact that while
violators. Motorcycle ' policemen under
Lieutenant Ervln arrested 465 of the
total number, i Fines from these arrests
aggregated 81985. :

First in St. Die
this name 'America' was suggested in
a geographical treatise in . wliich the
earth was considered the center of the
universe, there waa at the moment of
the first printing of the name a Polish
scholar, . Kopernik Copernicus), who
was developing a new system of astron
omy, a new cosmography, whose sub
stitution for the Ptolemaic, geocentric,
anthropocentrlo creed of- the universe
was to be the 'capital event of mddern
thought.'
'And so it was that while 'America'
was baptised Into the Ptolemalo cosmos.
Its inhabitants, after the aborigines,
dwelt from the first in a Cofiernican
universe, wanderers in an infinity of
space, .with a 'shuddering sense of phys
ical immensity.' - -
