A memorandum prepared by Dr. B. J. de Klerk condemns the practice as being contrary to the scriptures. Early Christians, he said, replaced the funeral pyre with an hohorable burial. "Cremation is a sign of the times and shows that age-old Christians, are being swept aside and Exchanged for heathen customs," he said. "Cremation Is becoming increasingly popular and it is no longer a rarity for people to express as their last wish the desire- that their bodies should be burned after death. The names of many prominent Africans are already displayed in ash urns. "When Christianity came to the world the custom of cremation was dlmost wholly in use use among the heathen peoples. The modern movement In favor of cremations is nothing else but a revival of the old heathen practice. It stands In .close relation to unbelief and is a love- child of liberalism."

You will obviously find it to your advantage to wait a little longer, until we are in a position to deliver a car against your own order. We are sorry to say that delivery to you may be delayed for some time yet. This is due, in particular, to the shortage of many materials. General Motors has done a splendid production job under the circumstances and expects to steadily increase the rate of production. Meanw'hile, these conditions, combined with the wide popularity of General 'Motors cars, and such an unprecedented demand, mean that delay in some-instances is quite inescapable.
