The Faith &
That Life Is Stronger
& Than Death
jUf^dor-f
3 N A spirit of solemn festival Eas
ter Is celebrated, commemorating
to all Christians the miracle and
season in the Northern hemisphere is
the springtime of nature’s rebirth, a
perennial drama of life arising anew
from the death and darkness of win
ter. 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

Spring with its sunshine has come back again.

To tell us that winter and sadness are fled;
All things unite to pay homage and glory

* It has been sakl that Ore times have
taught us again the value of faith and
the need for it. 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.—

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.
