Bell Syndicate.)--WNU Servlo*. NCR there was an Industrial Slave whose Name did not appear in the History of his Own * . Times. He cut no Ice except -tbat he added a Grand Total of 1 to the Census Total. He was just an Other Passenger on the Trolley and Mother Pay Envelope on Saturday Bight and another Vote to be rounded up by the.;Precinct Captain.' He was known to the Folks living Next Door «nd the Foreman remembered him from one Week to another and that it as far as his Fame ever spread. He Wore Overalls and carried a Lunch Pail with a Cup inverted on the Top *nd pulled at a stubby Dudeen, which was about all of the Biographical Details available. Except that, being a Namesake of the great martyred Pres- ^Went, he was commoniy know as Link, v ; ^.Nothing ever happened to him until " v;:,s,-.•!»:'>;$}§ died and then he received as much «. - ^ifcrsWpfuJ Attention as ever was ex- " ' pended on a; Crowned Head. Be may _ h8ve been a Mutt while he was breath- V lag but the Moment he became cold ^V'. was a Prominent Citizen. ' , * . When he joined the Majority the bereaved Helpmate consulted the Bank Book, which showed a stingy Balance of $534. There was an unpaid Balanee on the House and a Doctor Bill. Germany was well off as compared *rtth Link's Family. However, a Sick Benefit had accrued from the Union. r So the poor bereaved Widow began . make arrangements for the Obsequies. She took all she had in sight and went Jnto Debt as far as they Would let her go and gave his Nobs 08e Whale of a Fare-Ye-well. While T.ink was here He and the *"17 Hissos used to go to the Mat about once so often. In fact, they averaged about three Armageddons a Day, with the Issue always in doubt, but the Moment he cashed in, she remembered him as" a Male Turtle Dove who did •Calling but Coo. He was a Tough Bird while he had his Health but the Minute he breathed v: Ids Last he was Snow White. Alive and Kicking: Dead--Cant Kiek. As soon as they began making the Arrangements it occurred to her that __ they did not have, in the principal, - high-priced, aristocratic Cemetery, a ,L©t which was in keeping with the Social Prominence and Eminent Virtues of the Deceased. v So she sent for one of the Trustees of the Graveyard and he let her have a small Tract of Grotind on a High 8pot, commanding a good view, and all he charged her was about four times what she would pay for land at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 42nd . Street. After that she called in the Undertaker, who is a great help on such Occasions. He had a very beautiful Catalogue showing the different kinds of Caskets which might be purchased. He showed her some of the cheap ones hot he very frankly admitted that possibly some of the Wood had Worm Boles in it and the Handles were not Sterling Silver, and, although he didn't want to influence her in any way, he suggested that she could not get anything which would be worthy of the Dear Departed unless she picked out something in the Back Part of the Book. The Widow must have been in a W7 Sentimental Mood when she gicked out the Metal Casket that let down in front, the same as a Kitchen Cabinet. It had a lot of Puffed Satin and was guaranteed to stand up and remain in Good Condition for a great many Years, which didn't make any Difference, but the Widow fell for it just the same. She wanted Link to have the Best of everything. . While he was alive, she would holla- until you could hear her a Block •Way 'if toe bought a Collar Button that cost as much as 50 Cents, but now that he was gone and had become one of the Angels, let us hope, she couldn't think of anything too Recherche for him. So she ordered the kind of Coffin which is favored by New York Millionaires and when she heard the Price was Eight Hundred Dollars she Wasn't feazed a trifle. Then the Undertaker took up with Iter the Important Matter of how they Should attire Link before spreading ltim out. He said that the neatest and niftiest and slickest Costume for a Gentleman of Standing was a Tuxedo with Pearl Studs and Patent Leather Dancing Pumps. Than which nothing * could have been more appropriate for Link. Soprano Tried for Distance. ' He not only never had worn a Lew Oody outfit but he never had seen one. What is more, it would have required a Posse of very determined Men to get Link into a Tuxedo but, of course, they had him counted out and lying horizontal and the Widow was having her own Way, so she ordered, at a very high Price, a very beautiful Regalia suitable for one who is going to attend a Dinner Dance at the Ritz. After they got Link Into the Nobby Outfit it would be unfair to tell you that he looked different If he ever appeared at the Gates of Heaven in the Masquerade Costume there is a Question as to whether or not Saint Peter would have identified him from the Description which had been received in Advance. Quite a Question arose as to where $fe Funeral Services would be held. v;lt would be necessary to hare a Preacher and It was customary to break into a Church. It Just happened that Link had not attended Church for something like a matter of 28 Years and he had no Sectarian Affiliations that anyone remembered, but his Wife happened to think that one of his Aunts had been a Methodist, so they fixed it up and had the Methodist Minister come over and he looked at the Remains and secured a few Data from the Bereaved Helpmate and by the time he got through Link was almost a Methodist in Good Standing. The Pastor and the Undertaker told the Widow that it was customary, if you wanted to have a real Swell Funeral, to have some singing and that a good Soprano who was guaranteed to ush&- the Departing Soul right into the Blissful Beyond would bring about 50 Dollars. Link's Wife said that nothing was too good for Him so they hired a nearopera Singer and she did^hree Obligates at the church, her^fdea evidently being to let them know in the World Beyond that Link was on his way, because she certainly was Loud. Fortunately Link could not hear, her Slid did not know what it cost, so iftVerything was all right. -.V..' Roping in the Relatives. It seems that the Importance of a Fimeral nowadays is gauged by the Number of Motor Cars , which follow the Motor Hearse out to the Cemetery. All you have to do to get a Motor Hearse is to buy it and use it once and then give it back. < Link's wife wanted the Funeral to be a Real Success so she engaged ail of the Automobiles from three Garages and had them lined up in front of the Church, so that all of the Mourners could get a Free Ride out to the Cemetery, with the result that a great many People who never had heard of Link rode out and stood beside the Open Grave tftid cried like Children. We must not overlook tlie fact that Death Notices had been inserted in all of the Newspapers nearby and that Mrs. Link had sent for Link's Brother, who lived five hundred miles away and had paid his Railroad Fare and had bought a new Suit of Clothes so that they would let him enter the Church. All of this helped to whoop the Expense Account but there is one time when a Sentimental Woman will not balk at Expenses and that is when she is planting the Beloved. It certainly was a most successful Funeral. Link's wife sent Flowers in "her own name and in the Names of all of the Relatives who were not present. Link looked simply wonderful in his ballroom Costume and the Preacher tajked about hiin until almost anybody could believe that Link amounted to something and the Soprano did herself proud and the Parade was about four blocks long and the Assembly out at the Cemetery looked'tike a Mass Meeting. After it was all over, the Widow held a Consultation with the Children and checked up on the Family Budget. They had no Assets in sight but there were quite a number of Bills. The Widow said, by way of Explanation, "It ^oks as though we would be brokp for the next twenty years, but you must admit that we gave Papa quite a Send-Off." : MORAL--If peopH) Are overlooking you, die. Forma of Government in European Countries The following European nations are republics: Austria, Czechoslovakia, Esthonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, San Marino, Spain, Switzerland and Turkey. Russia Is a federation of republics, hut of republics of a sort quite different from the oldes kind. The kingdoms are those of Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Rumania, the Serb, Croat and Slovens (Jugoslavia), and Sweden. The government of Hungary is also, in form, that of a kingdom, but the throne is vacant at present Luxemburg is a grand duchy. Monaco is a principality. Ireland and Danzig are called free states. In Danzig. there is a legislative assembly, elected by the people, and a high commissioner, appointed by the League of Nations. In Ireland there is the sort of quasi-independent government that Canada has, with a very slight formal acknowledgment of the sovereignty of the British king. Bit of Early History Nicholas Disbrowe, joiner, who "made the earliest piece of American furniture of proven origin," held the office of chimney viewer in 1647 and again in 1655, 1663, and 1669. He must have been good at it. In 1065; he did more "sighting" as surveyor of highways. He served, too, in the Pequot war, for which service he was given fifty acres of land. Nicholas, with all these good deeds to his credit. Is reputed to have been charged with witchcraft, but this was due as the story continues, to a dispute over a bill. Accountancy Very little is known of the origin of accOTihtlng as a profession. The first ass^etation of which there is rec ord is nie Collegio del Raxonali, found-* ed at Venice In 1581. Professional accountants probably existed in Milan at an early date, as the government estab lished a scale of charges for them In 1742. The first Scotch professional ac countant was George Watson, born In Edinburgh In 1645. In 1790 the British directory listed five.
