Conies April 20th Easter Sunday this year will fall on April >20, which is considerably later than in recent years, # con sultation of the almanac shows. While Easter has been known to have fallen as late as April 25, it has been many years since it was celebrated as late in the season as will be thc~case this year. The explanation lies in the fact that Easter is always the first Sun day after the full moon on or after March 21, Easter was celebrated on the first day of April in 1923, and the date on which it may fall ranges from March 22 to April 25, although it rarely accurs on either of those dates. As Easter falls on April 20 this year, Ash Wednesday, which marks the first day of Lent will be on March 1. The luna month is used in reckon ing the date on which Easter falls, and it is, therefore, not set by the real, or astronomical moon. This cient ecclesiastical ruling, but sel dom makes any difference in the date as the astronomical moon nearly al ways accords with the luna month. However, it failed to do so last year, and if Easter had been set by the real moon, it would have fallen on April 8 instead of on All Fools’ day, April 1, as was the case. The lateness of the date this year will undoubtedly find a profusion of flowers and all nature is expected to be in full bloom to make the date set aside for celebrating the resurrection of the Christ one of the most impres sive of the entire year.

Dr. Taylor’s peoraion was eloquent! of the close and enduring grip that Woodrow Wilson tenets maintain upon his political adherents, even though the author has passed on. “Posterity will fix a just and due appraisal of the life and service of this great man,” the pastor said. “We can say of him with all due reverence that God sent a man into the world; a man of great spirit and purpose; a man of great in tellectual power and moral idealism; a man who was a seer and prophet CLINTON GIRLS WIN • > Owners of higher priced cars are coming to the Hupmobile in greater numbers every day.

So don’t ask for “chicken feed.” Demand Purina Chicken Chowder and Purina Hen Chow in checker board bags. Please do not feed Chowder without Hen Chow or Hen Chow without Chowder—to do so upsets the scientific balance and loses you extra eggs. Feed as directed on the instructions with each bag and get more eggs. EDGAR TODD WHAT DO P. S.

Taylor. The clergyman gave in stances of kindly witticism voiced to Dr. Taylor at visits to the White House and quoted from a Wilson es say: “For light upon a dark subject commend me to a ray of wit.” One of the last speeches Wilson made in his fatal illness was a jest when his doctor, Cary Grayson, was “examin ing his pupils.” Though after his second marriage Mr. Wilson about divided his ctiurch- goings between Central Presbyterian and the Protestant Episcopal house of worship his wife attended, he was a staunch adherent to the Scotch de nomination, said Dr. Taylor, and very devout. “He was deeply reverential in his worship,” said the clergyman. “He gave the most careful attention to the reading of the scripture and the preaching of the sermon. In fact, it was often quite to a visiting minis ter to discover suddenly that the ser mon was being listened to with such concentrated attention. He always joined in thg singing of hymns and would often, step out of his pew to give a hyiriri book to some one who may have come in late. He hiVnself was always punctual. “During the period of the war, he insisted that his pew should be di vided with the soldier boys, and often jrivctM and nw-eommiseioned of ficers‘were tested next te the Corny FROM FOUNTAIN INN The girl’s basketball team of the Clinton High School defeated the^ Fountain Inn girls’ team in the col lege gym on Friday afternoon by a score of 28 to 3.
