THE COMFORTING
BEAUTY of a properly directed funeral and the
calm, orderly procedure that acta it apart from
services of stereotyped pattern, rests not only
upon the funeral director's professional com-
petence. It also depends upon the thoughtful
manner in which he cares for the small, but im-
portant, details that need his personal attendance.
