The story of Scripture ami the visible wonder of the earth's trans figuration tell alike of the triumph of life over death, of hope’s victory over despair, of the dawn that ends the night of doubt and waiting. Easter is a Christian festival, but all nations ami peoples from ancient tlnu^s have acknowledged the symbolic significance of the coming of spring. Easter itself is linked to forgotten ceremonies by which the sun was wel comed and the earth rededicated to beauty and fruitfulness. This was al ways a mystery; It Is still a mystery and a marvel, though man has learned a little knowledge and has made the seasons his servants. The flower that springs from the seed, the glory of green that sweeps the hills in spring time are manifest miracles. They fortify and Justify the faith of those who believe that on Easter morning a stone was rolled away from a sepulcher In Palestine and death was found vanquished In the Resurrection. « * * In the simple words that tell of the earliest Easter, there is evident the wonder of Its witnesses and the Joy with which they found their hoi>e* come true. For In the dark hours of (Jethsemane and Golgotha all seemed lost save an oft-repeated promise ..uf. resurrection, and ho|»e alone was left to warm the heart of faith and give it courage. But the promise was kept and hope was Justified, and the mir acle of Easter morning became the cor nerstone of Christian faith and doc trine. In a more ancient story, written when no legend lacked a meaning, hope was the last gift of the gods to a world infested with evils and sor rows. And hope mighjt: hnvq died and left the world 'desbTiftP were it not for the promises made and kept with every cycle of the seasons. These have nourished in all ages the faith which is “the assurance of things hoped for, the proving of things not seen." They have taught men to work and wait and trust in the future, to keep courage through darkness and doubt, to seek for new life and happi- ness. even in the presence of suffering Katherine 6Jehnm \ H OW joyful the music of Easter i* falling, What promise and hope lie in every glad <1 strain. la garden and woodland the songbirds are Spring with its sunshine has come back again.

All things unite to make Easter more lovely, To tell us that winter and sadness are fled; All things unite to pay homage and glory To One who in triumph has come from the dead. How joyful the music of Easter is falling, All thmgs of nature in unison sing.

If this is so. then tiiis year’s Easter will be widely ob served in serious and thoughtful spirit. For these are times of doubt and dis couragement and hope itself is weary of waitjng for light and leading. The modern man is perplexed with many problems, hut those that touch him closest are old as humanity itself. He seeks life's purpose and its destiny. He is aware of his own bewilderment The Christian finds a sufficient an swer in the significance of Easter morn ing. The foundation of his faith Is the promise of resurrection and its su preme fulfillment in the risen Christ. But the question is older than Chris tianity and its answer as old as the everlasting hills and the seasons which visit them. Life is stronger than death and is forever renewed in Joy and loveliness. Darkness prom ises the dawn, winter gives way to spring and snmmerr The -past mar be forgotten: the future is worth waiting and working for. For every flower of spring declares that nature is no pessimist and has kept her promises since the world began. And man. who is by birth a child of nature, may learn from this living lesson to deny his own doubts and keejMhis courage for the work before To Bring an Easier Smile In northern Europe, many peasants still greet one another with the cry, “Christ is risen,” The answer comes, “He is risen, indeed.” Then colored Easter eggs are exchanged. Some times jokes are told to Induce aa “Eas ter smile.” forty days of Lent are re- UL garded as being kept after the example of Moses (Exodus 24:28) and Elijah (I Kings, 19:8), and above all, as commemorating the fasting of Christ (Matthew, 4:2). The forty-day fast dates to the early Fourth century. Its origin is obscure In the early church the duration either was not fixed or it varied in the churches in different countries. But from the Fourth century the period of fasting seems to have approximated more or less closely in most places to forty days, the fast being extended over six or seven weeks, according as Sundays only or Saturdays and Sundays were excepted. According to the Catholic Encyclo pedia, St. Leo (who died in 461) ex horts his hearers to abstain that they may “fulfill with their fasts the apos tolic Institution of the forty days.” But the encyclopedia adds that mod ern scholars are almost unanimous in rejecting this view, because the exist ing remains of the first three centuries show “considerable diversity of prac tice regarding the fast before Easter and also a gradual process of develop ment in the matter of Its duration.” ‘The- passage of primary Impor tance,” It resumes, “Is one quoted by Eusebius from a letter of St. Irenaeus to Pope Victor in connection with the Easter controversy. Irenaeus says there Is not only a controversy about the time of keeping Easter, but also regarding the preliminary fast ‘For,’ he continues, ‘some think they ought to fast for one day, others for two days, and others for several, while others reckon forty hours both of day and night to their fast.’ “He also urges that this variety of usage is of ancient date, which im plies that there could have been no apostolic tradition on the subject . . . We may then fairly conclude that Irenaeus about the year 190 knew’ nothing of any Easter fast of forty days. The same inference must be drawn from the language of Tertullian only n' few years later. . . And ^hore^Ur-the same Spence obgervpble In all the pre-NTcene fathers, though many had occasion to mention such an aftostolic institution if it had existed.” Pope Nicholas, who served from 8T>S to 867, declared that abstinence on Friday was obligatory on all commu nicants of the Roman church. Friday corresponds to the day of the week on which Jesus was crucified, and many -Of the early Christians were already observing it as a weekly fast day; that is, a dav on which they abstained from eatfnjr Ib'^h meats. Fish being principal nonflesh meat, It accord ingly been me the favorite food for those days when flesh meats were for bidden. Also, the fish was one of the earliest symbols of Christianity.— Cleveland Plain Dealer. We clean your clothes the most sanitary way with experienced men.

The Law and the Prophet* “Whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them; for this Is the law and the prophets.” Easter, the Birth of Sunday /Ip ASTER, by the derivation of its name, is intimately connected with the East, the sun-rising, day-dawning point! It symbolizes for us the beginning of a new era, with death no longer a blank door closing upon human existence, opening upon only uncertainty or fear beyond; with sin no longer interposing a dense veil between mankind and an offended Creator. Instead, it tells of life as the Spring-time of a glorious summer, illumined by the beauty of a gracious Father reconciled to mankind—of death as bnt .the entrance to a fuller life in another sphere. A new life-blessing Sun issued from the garden tomb on Easter morning, and ever since that day of the opened grave we have called the same first day of the week Sunday and made it a happy and should-be holy rest day as $ weekly memorial of the most beneficent and most revolutionary event this earth has gmr witnessed since upon it light was first made to shine.
