THE CLINfON CHRONICLE
EASTER FOR 1951 WILL BE
EARLIEST ONE UNTIL 2008
Paffe Thrw
Chicago—If for no other reason,
the year 1051 -will be distinguished
by at least one thing for sure: •
Its Easter—on March 25—will be
the earliest observance of the holi
day in the second half of the 20th
"century.
The world will have to wait until
the year 2008 to celebrate it earlier.
That year it will be on March 23,
according to computations at the Ad
ler Planetarium and astronomical
museum, Chicago. The last time it
was on March 23 was in 1913.
Although Easter has come to be
associated with bunnies, colored eggs
f and spring fashions, it primarily is
a religious feast day. It commemor-
v ates the resurrection of Christ on the
third day afteSr-Galvary. As a reli
gious feast it is governed by the ec
clesiastical calendar and is movable,
unlike Christmas which always falls
on Dec. 25.
Easter can be as early as March
22 and as late as April 25, a varia
tion of 35 days. The last time it was
on March 22 was in 1818. It next will
be that early in 2285. It fell on April
25 m 1943; it will not do so again
until 2038.
The method of fixing the time of
Ea&er is complicated and dates back
to 325 AD. In that year the Council
of the Christian Churches met at
^Nicaea (Nice) in Asia Minor. Besides
setting forth the Nicene creed, a sum
mary of the belief in the divinity of
Christ, the councilors decided that
Easter should be the first Sunday af
ter the Paschal full moon which oc
curs upon, or next after, March 21,
the vernal equinox.
Travel underlay this decision. In
early times Easter was a day of great
celebration in big cities and pilgrims
journeyed on foot or in crude trans
ports to take part. They needed moon
light to help them find their way
at night, so the reckoning of the
Easter date was worked out for their
convenience.
If the Paschal full moon falls on
a Sunday, Easter is observed the fol
lowing Sunday. The Paschal full
moon is the 14th day of a lunar
month reckoned according to an an
cient ecclestiastical computation and
not the real, or astronomical, full
moon.
The 20th century had an earlier
Easter twice before. In addition to
March 23 , in 1913, it fell on March
24 in 1940. It will be on March 23
again in 2008 and March 24 in 2391.
