Visits the Famous Forest Lawn
Memorial Cemetery in Pasadena, California.
In a letter received from Mrs. A.
J. Warren, written while she was
in Pasadena, she gives an interesting account of a sightseeing trip she
took. She says, "The manager of
the hotel took five guests out to
beautiful Forest Lawn Meirforial
Park cemetery. In the Memorial
Court of Honor we viewed a beautiful stained glass window depicting
Leonardo da Vinci's world famous
masterpiece, 'The Last Supper.'
This priceless gem was recreated,
from the original * sketches collected
from the art museums of Europe by
Rosa Caselli-Moretti. It is recognized as one of the world's great
art treasures. Since it was dedicated April 28, more than one million
people have come to view it. Within the sacred grounds is the Forest Lawn mortuary which offers
the privacy and seclusion of funerals, a modern class-A building, it
is the only one in the Los Angeles
metropolitan, area which is fireproof, earthquake proof, and completely air conditioned. The charming Little Church of the Flowers
adjacent to- the mortuary is a reproduction pf the village church at
Stoke Poges in Buckinghani, England, where the immortal poet,
Gray, wrote his "Elegy to a Graveyard", and The Wee Kirk of the
Heather, a reconstruction of Annie
Laurie's little church in Dumfrie-
shire, Scotland. Here is where Will
Rogers funeral was held and his
body lies in a crypt the front of

Hundreds of other1 handicapped youngsters are seeking the opportunity to romp and play like these boys. You can help provide this
service through purchasing Easter Seals.
School's out—it's time to play.
And the urge to play is no less
compelling to boys who must spend
their waking hours Oh crutches and
keep ever iri inind their incapacity
for too active ^jort.

lation and treatment of crippled
limbs and a determined effort to
make the public conscious of the
problems of the crippled child can
do that.
The Michigan Society for Crippled Children was formed for the
sole purpose of focusing public attention on this problem, long neglected or ignor-df and urging the
public through its local organizations to help solve the problem.
The annual Seal campaign of the
Society and its affiliated local committees helps to provide some of
the money for this undertaking. The
Society '--is offering for sale at a
penny each Its Easter Seals to help
finance this necessary work.
The Seals, yellow and blue and
white, show a girl with a crutch
under her arm watering a lily plant.
They will be on sale here from
April 1 to 17. The slogan is "A Bet-
ter Life for Crippled Children."

Warren, written while she was in Pasadena, she gives an interesting account of a sightseeing trip she took. She says, "The manager of the hotel took five guests out to beautiful Forest Lawn Meirforial Park cemetery. In the Memorial Court of Honor we viewed a beautiful stained glass window depicting Leonardo da Vinci's world famous masterpiece, 'The Last Supper.' This priceless gem was recreated, from the original * sketches collected from the art museums of Europe by Rosa Caselli-Moretti. It is recognized as one of the world's great art treasures. Since it was dedicated April 28, more than one million people have come to view it. Within the sacred grounds is the Forest Lawn mortuary which offers the privacy and seclusion of funerals, a modern class-A building, it is the only one in the Los Angeles metropolitan, area which is fireproof, earthquake proof, and completely air conditioned. The charming Little Church of the Flowers adjacent to- the mortuary is a reproduction pf the village church at Stoke Poges in Buckinghani, England, where the immortal poet, Gray, wrote his "Elegy to a Graveyard", and The Wee Kirk of the Heather, a reconstruction of Annie Laurie's little church in Dumfrie- shire, Scotland.
