Real Lesson of
the Empty Tomb
in Paul’s Words
Eastei^thought is thus phra^
by at Paul r “If ye then tw rtsen wfth
Christ seek those things which are
above. Set your affections on things
above, not on things on the earth.
Mortify therefore your members which
are upon the earth; fornication, un-
cleanness, Inordinate affection, evil
concupiscence, and covetousness, which
Is Idolatry; for which things’ sake the
wrath of God cometh In the children
of disobedience: In tlie which ye also
walked some time, when ye lived in
them.” Men have thought and
preached so much about the empty
tomb, In their effort to prove the resur
rection as to have entirely overlooked
the question asked by the angel of the
resurrection. “Why 8«»ek ye the living
among the dead?” That has been what
many have been doing for tweuty cen
turies, and are still doing. There were
those whom the empty tomb did not
convince—the women thought the body
had been stolen. It Is in^ed written
of one of the disciples that, when he
entered the tomb, “he saw and be
lieved.”
Of St Peter It Is written: ’“Then
arose Peter, and ran into the sepul
cher; and stooping down, he beheld
the linen clothes laid by themselves,
and departed, wondering In himself at
that which was come to pass”—plain
ly he was not convinced, but bewil
dered. What did convince Ills dis
ciples was communion with Him, a
renewal of the old association and
fellowship, the happy consciousness
of His presence wlilch they knew
would be on abiding one, and the ten
<ler words that He spoke to them.
Then it was that they knew He w.ts
alive, alive forevermore, and realized
that they were called to follow a liv
ing and not a dead Leader. They saw
that “In Him was life; and the light
was the life of men.”** _Also they,
realized—and they never lost their
grip on the thought—that death and
the grave were but the gate opening
on a larger, finer, happier and nobler
life.
“Because I live, ye shall live also”—
such was the assurance given by
Christ to His disciples on the eve of
Hia departure from them. It was the
assurance of a life unbroken by death,
of continued and uninterrupted fellow
ship with Himselt Argument on the
subject is, and ever has been, for the
most part futlLe. The most thatj^
prbved^ was that YhetwwaB
a moral probability of immortality—
and that is much. But for the Chris
tian. Easter Is the festival ot the life
eternal, and he must feel that the
assurance of his Master—“Because I
live, ye shall live also”—Is as truly
for him as for those to whom the
words were first spoken. Yet compar
atively few Christians, it is feared,
give much thought to the subject—
perhaps becau.se they shrink from the
contemplation of death. And that is
to be regretted. There are some doc
trines held and preached by the
churches which ought to be, and in
time will he, abandoned, but the doc
trine of immortality Is not one of
them. On the contrary, it should be
more and more stressed, for it may
be, as It was in the first days of
Christianity, a great power in human
life. It will be remembered that St
Paul was sure that there was laid up
for him “a crown of righteousness.”
It might be expected that he would
have said “a crown of life.” But “a
crown of righteousness” Is a crown of
life, for righteousness is Itself life.
So we are privileged tc enter Into the
joy of another Easter, and once more
to think of It as the foretaste of an
Immortality which Is In truth—or may
be—a present possession. Arnold puts
it well, though perhaps somewhat se
verely :
No, no! the energy of life may be
Kept on after the grave, but not begun;
Anti he who flagged not In the earthlv
strife.
From strength to strength advancing—
only he.
His soul well-knit, and all his,battles
won,
Mounts, and that hardly, to eternal life

ing, .'^ril 5th, has been set for the
Clinton appearance of the college’s
first sortie into the realm of the dra- *
matic. It is learned that attempts are
being made to arrange for one or
more performances away from home.
This should arouse a greater interest
in the play, and in the future activi
ties of the dramatic.
“Second Story Peggy” rs a delight
ful comedy-drama in four acts„ writ
ten by Katherine Kavanaugh. It was
designed to provide a pleasant even- j
ing's° entertainment, and has been
i chosen by the authorities of the dra-1
I matic club for the same reason. Those i
i who are in charge feel confident
i that Clinton folks will be pleased with
the production! i
! Mrs, M. W. Brown, whose original
; ideas and unfailing energy have added I
i to so many college functions in the
past year or two, is entering into the
produeftion of the play with great in
terest. Under her guiding hand, and
with the able assistance of President
Jack O’Neal, of the dramatic club, the
play can be nohting but worth while.
It was the same combination that
st^ed,-ther Freshman success, “The
Juhior,” not so many weeks ago.
Students are asked to put a circle
around April 5th on their calendars,
:n order that no other function may
become confused with “Seconef Story
Peggy-” Those who saw “The Junior”
will not miss the dramatic club’s ans
wer to the challenge of the frosh.
These who missed the rat perform
ance will know better than' to miss
this one also.
