The foregoing question has been asked repeatedly by eminent American pulpit orators, distinguished literary men, educators, scientists, philosophers, and historâ€" ians, nearly all of whom cite some evidences that the present generation of humans is not far in advance of some peoples who lived several centuries ago.

This is the only place of human interment in Lake County which renders this kind of service. Our plantings are different from any which may be seen anywhere else, even in the best cemeteries of Chicago, New York, or other large cities.

(11) No two sections are planned or planted alike. Every grave borders on a 1ooe-fut«h or on a driveway. There is no crowding even in the lowest priced lots. Placing graves close together for the sake of nvin{ a few dollars is a gruesome practice which is not found in this GARDEN. If anybody says our prices are too high to admit of their patronage, it is probable that such people will pay $600 to $800 for a new automobile every two or three years while they think they cannot pay so much money for a burial place in an everlasting and most beautiful garden of memories which will be the resting place of an entire family for untold centuries to come. What degree of civilization and refinement does this indicate?
