But economy that results in a cheap funeral, perhaps conducted hur- riedly and without complete facilities, leaves a pang of disappointment for many years. The funeral service should always be a beautiful and reverent ceremony, so that it acts as a comforting memory picture in days to come. How true it is that a civilization can be judged by the care given its departed. In Washington no family need risk disappointment with a so-called “eco- nomical” service. It is possible here to obtain the finest tribute known to this age—a service, conducted by Joseph Gawler Sons, who have served Amer- ica’s leading families since the time of President Fillmore. No establishment in the city can provide an appropriate service for less than we. AR {g\ila\ AR Joseph Gawler cvlflud:,g.-:u s I We Maintain alter A.
