Campbell had named his insti- tution for burial and cremation, Broadway at 66th Street, “The Funeral Church.” So I asked him. “About twenty-five years ago,” said Mr. bell,” “the New York Tribune sent a journalist write up’ my place, at that time located on West 23d Street. I was the first so-called ‘undertaker’ who dared to extensively advertise in daily papers and, as everything that is new, my ads attracted attention. “That journalist wrote a beautiful article under the heading, ‘The Church Without Spire or Belfry.’ In it he told how Frank E. Campbell, knowing New York to be a homeless city and one-third of its popu lation to live in hotels, rooming houses, institutions or apartments, all unfitted for the housing and the care of the dead, founded an institution where the dead may lie; not in cold, bare rooms, not alone without attendants, but in homelike surroundings, amongst men and women who care; at a place where the family and their friends may come at any hour, day or night, and make the ‘Church Without Spire or Belfry’ their home while their dear one is there, “He told of names, famous in science, art, liter~ ature and commerce, of professional men and men of finance, of people of every land and nation, of every creed and of those without ‘belief; for the Church is non-sectarian, dedicated by all religious denominations, “A few years later, the last rites over the Trib- une writer’s remains were held jin the place he loved, which often he had visited, and which he had named ‘The Funeral Church,’ ” Since that story has been written, The Fune: Church has a greater, a better home, Broadway 66th Street, with a chapel still on 23d Street. A beautiful church—still without spire or belfry—a church of pure gothic design, fills the entire second floor of two buil The third and the fifth floors of the same two buildings contain private suites, parlors, individual rooms, all beautifully furnished; rooms of different sizes to supply the need of all | living if labor and capital are to be| Franklin ave, Bronx, those who, in this homeless City of ours, recognize pare for cultivation and also on many | ihe ‘period of the war and becomes ct. remy by reverting to industrial n- |peace and co-operation, a day that inoperative upon the formal procia-| darde and” conditlo met | will make for some comfort and hap- | ®"tagontsts instead of partners, ee ee the need of a place like The Funeral Church. ” mation of peace, It is imperativ hich thy pysrage workman of |pineas in living and a more tolerable | Sound thinking amd an honest de- LOST, FOUND AND REWARDS, ats, that it should be extended at once. rid had Pevated It le, | condition among all classes of men. gire to serve the interosts of th: x on Nev, ‘The Department of Justice hae bullt lore, the task of the states: (ortniniy himan intelligence can de- of Rey moray up entensive machinery for the nur- men of this new day ef ghange ‘ive woud wocepiable tribunal for ad- Whole nation ae distinguished from jgmct Jf ;b.
