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 , —Indianapolis News. Don’t wait until the last minute.

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.
