Lion Pat Yeo presented Lion Bob Kent with his 15 year 100 percent attend- ance pin. Lion Alex McGregor intro- duced Bob Williams to the group and gave a brief resumne of Lion Bob's life. Mr. Williams, is employed as an embalmer with F. F. Morris and Com- pany. Tells of Profession a"When I chose embalming as apv-ofession I had considered several other fields, but later discovered that embalming re- quired some of the ability con- nected with these other profes- sions," Lion Bob said. He point- ed out that an embalmer must have the general knowledge of a surgeon, plastie surgeon, salesman, public relations man, hiair dresser, barber, chauffeur and many others, to fulfili bis required duties. Practiced in 4000 B.C. Embalming Is a profession wbich. bas been practiced for many years. The history of embalming provides us with a cultural background and shows advancement in this field. The hist9ry of embalming is divid- ed into three eras fromn the year 4000 B.C. until the pres- ent. The first era o! embalming was from 4000 B.C. to 600 A.D. and was practiced by the Egyp- tians and Babylonians. Their reason for embalming was of a religions nature. During this era an estimated 400,000,000 bodies were embalmed. The earliest embalming was done by the Egyptians who lived on the outskirts of the city. Alds Medicine fluring the mediaeval era from 600 A.D. until 1850 A.D. European Countries led the field in embalming. The reason for embalming was to advance the study of anatomy and pa- thology. Embalming was done by doctors. The third or modern era of embalming began in 1850 A.D. and is stili used today. The reasons for embalming are - sentimental reasons; sanitary; preservation during transpor- tation. There is sometimes a long period ibefore intermeîît and embalming is used for san- itary purposes, he pointed out. Improved Health Conditions It is estimated that embalm- ing has improved health con- ditions for the living by close ýto 60 percent, and has helped to stamp out epidemies, which are common in countries where embalming is flot practiced, Mr. Williams said. Preservation ofa body during transportation makes it possible to ship it to ail parts of the woQrld. Today embalming is done by only li- cenced embalmers or funeral directors possessing a special 11cence, he said. Serves APPrenticeship To become an embalmer a person must have four years" high school or the equivalent and must register as an "Arti- cled Student". He serves a two year apprenticeship for a fun- emal director. During his ap- prenticeship he is requimed to attend the Canadian School of Embalming for a fivewek course each year. On completion of the appren- ticeship, he or she, must have reached the age o! 21. There are several women in Ontario holding embalmers licences. An embalmer is equired ta re-. new their licence annually and refresher courses must be at- tended every fîve years. Difficuit Training The school course in embalm- ing is intemesting, but rather difficuilt. Some o! the subjects studied include, physiology, anatomy, chemistmy, bacteriol- ogy, general science, psychol- ogy, restorative art, principles of embalming and funeral di- recting, accounting in funeral and several others. Since the introduction of the "'A" bomb and "H" bomb spe- cial lectures are being given on the effects of radiation and how embalmers are to treat it. Embalming is a vital public service and an embalmer's re- ward comes from the feeling he bas been able to aid fami- lies in times of their deepest sorrow, he emphasized. Lion Don Allin thanked Bob Williams for bis excellent talk and presented bim with a gftt on bebaîf of the club.
