Increase in population forces up on citizens and persons having charge of cemeteries and of other places provided for the burial of the dead, the makinj of new ar rangements, and very frequently the regulations which must be made cause unpleasantness between the lot owners aud the companies. It should be remembered however, that cemetery companies are not corporations for profit; but the pri mary object is to save sorrowing friends and relatives the trouble of the details of burial and the anxiety that everything may be done de cently and in order, and that the highly wrought feelings of the sur vivors may be soothed by the quiet and orderly conduct and manage ment of the cemetery employees. Thus u becomes necessary that rules and regulations which time and experience have adopted shall be observed and euforced. That everything should be done that can be, to aid and accommodate the friends in these last sad hours, is the duty aud satisfaction of manag--ers and their servants. But you sometimes find amongst the mourn ers persons with no sense of the fit ness of things, nor of the proprieties of place or occasion. It should bean unbending rule of all cemeteries in the growing towns not to admit to the cemeteries any carriages of attendant friends not being relatives of the deceased per son. Relatives are entitled to see and know of the proper interment of their loved departed. Aud yet in many places and with great pro priety, a gentleman friend of the family is deputed to attend and take note thateverythiugis done in that due and solemn order which is fit ting to the occasion. Thus, also, at many funerals carriages and friends are sent, but go no farther than the cemetery gates, continuing directly past them and home, while the gates are shut after the carriages with the immediate family are admitted; ol which the friends should give the gate keeper notice. The regulation also has its great usei in wet and cold and otber disagreeable- weather; iu the case of delicate people and aged ones who cannot well endure the strain of long funeral orations and religious services, which are of very ques tionable propriety at the grave. The subject is being considered in many quarters, in which the health and comfort of the living have a place as well as due respect to the dead. Rosemont. The way to keep children in school is to make the school the most valuable place to them. The school must be made attractive. We must change front and recog nize that the schoolroom is made for the child and not for the teach er. At present only the appurte nances of the teacher are placed iu it, and whatever may be done for the children is done only because the teacher's interest can best be served by such. The schoolroom must be made for children, declares Arena. As the business room is made attractive and fixed up for customers, and whatever is done onlv because thereby the best inter ests of customers can be cared for, so in the schoolroom the interests of the children must be consulted and those things done for children which make the schoolroom next to the hrme, the most attractive place.
