Gay-Hued Coffins Putting Jazz in Funeral Gloom Bpecial Dispatch; to The Star. OMAHA, Neb., June 8.—Even as the gwsoline motor ousted the hearse-horse, so bright hues today drive somber colors from the fu- neral scene. Black is no longer popular as “mourning.” Red, blue, green and yellow coffins are win- ning public esteem. The jazz in- fluence is felt even at the tomb. Undertakers of Nebraska, now in conventlon here, will take this message home with them tomor- row. It comes straight from E. H. Morgan, secretary and treas- urer of the Nebraska Casket Salesmen’s Club. ‘Of course,” said Secretary Mor- gan, “one may get a black casket, but it is out of date. There is a general trend to do away with the somber. Black is no longer the garb to be worn for mourning. Any solid color is appropriate.” The State Funeral Directors’ As- soclation had just been told by President Livingston that modern undertaking had nothing to learn from the anclent Egyptian em- balmers. He's right” sald Mr. Morgan, “our profession is far ahead of the ancients. A body embalmed under modern methods will last indefi- nitely. Tn the hot, dry climate of Egypt King Tut's mummy wouldn't compare in preservation to a body embalmed as we do it. The mod- ern embalmer is not trying to pre- serve bodies forever, although if this were desired we could outdo the anclents. The art of preserva- tion is no problem. TO COMPLETE PROGRAM. Arts Club Entertainment Finale Tomorrow Evening. Owing to the distraction of the Shrire pageant, it was found impessible to give last evening the full program scheduled for the Arts Club Thursday dinner, at which Mr. and Mrs. H. K. Bush-Brown were hosts in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Kane. Consequently, tomorrow even- ing at 8:15, in the garden of the club at 2017 I street, the interrupted pro- gram will be completed with a dem- onstration of motor-mental-rhythmics by pupils of Ethel Hoffman Kane be- fore members of the club and their guests.
