After Sun- day school and church where special Easter Sunday exercises make the iday more joyous, thousands and thou- sands of boys and girls will return home and hunt for Easter rabbits and ggs. Then the egg-rolling contests will begin. But this great sport for the youngsters will not stop with the close of the day. Easter Monday is always a great day for the kiddies, if they have any unbroken eggs left for |rolling. And there always seems to be a reserve supply. Easter Monday {is a gala day for the youngsters of |Washington, for on that day they go {to the White House grounds where they roll their vari-colored eggs for the President and first lady and, of course, for their own entertainment. Easter is now a Christian festival in memory of the crucifixion and resurrection of our Savior, but it had {a heathen origin. It is a relie of the pagan festival of spring celebrating | the rebirth of life after the dormant period of winter. It was not until 3825 A. D. that the Council of Nice proclaimed Easter as the time for celebrating the resurrection of Christ. The council also decreed that it should be a movable feast vhich cannot be earlier than March 22 or later than |April 25, and that it be determined by the old paschal or Jewish lunar month, always falling on the first Sunday after the full moon on or next after March 21, Thus, if the full moon falls on Sunday, then Easter day fis the next Sunday. Easter Legends. All youngsters know about the rabbit and eggs and their connection with Easter. The Easter egg and the legend of the rabbit are universal. But how did these symbols of this joyous festi- val originate? The origin of egg-roll- ing which most children enjoy so much is supposed to have begun cen- turies ago from the practice of farm- ers rolling eggs over their lands to be sure of abundant yields at harvest time. This was because the egg was the pagan emblem of the germinating of life of early spring. The children are told that the rabbits lay the eggs, sad for this reason the latter are nearly always hidden away in nests or in flower beds in the yard and garden. The rabbit is another pagan symbol and has always been an emblem of fertility. Modern people have lost knowledge of what these symbols mean, yet they have continued these old pagan customs, perhaps by force of habits, and certainly for the amuse- ment of youngsters at Easter time, Why Eggs Were Colored. As to the coloring of Easter eggs a religious encyclopedia says: “Because the use of eggs was forbidden during Lent, they were brought to the table on Easter day colored red to sym- bolize the Easter joy. This custom is found not only in the Latin, but also in the Oriental churches.” Christians are supposed to have adopted the egg- rolling custom to symbolize the resur- rection, and the eggs were colored red in allusion to the blood of redemption. Yet, other colors were later intro- duced and now they have no special significance except to make variety.— Pathfinder Magazine, Three Days Noon! on a Roman road By weary prisoners trod, Bowed to the earth a fainting form, The Son of God. Night! and a naked Cross Lifted against the sky, On whose stark arms the Sun of God Lay Down to Die. Dawn! by an empty Tomb, He who is strong to save, The Son of God, hath conquered death And rent the grave. x There is the hazard that one may be wrong on Easter morning, and yet it seems, so far as recollection serves, that Easter mornings commonly are suited to the joyous significance of the day. The sunshine loves the earth, and lingers on it, and trees put forth their leaves in tender haste, and shrub and tree, after their fashion, are in bloom. One would vow almost that the cherries bloomed for Easter, and that the quince in the garden had put forth in token of the resurrection. It is excellent, in all truth, that Easter should fall as it does in this region, and over a broad belt of the planet. For the season is—shall we not say?—synchronized with the mes- sage, and the mother earth cries out, albeit dearly, that there is no death, but only the seeming thereof. You will look long in months to come for turf that is greener than the sod of Easter Sunday, for flowers that are more innocent of hue and petal. And if it be fair, as we insist the morning ought of right to be, you will look long for such another morning. For so many, many days the earth has slept, in that slumber which feigns death. Seed and root in their loam, dreaming of a time when a touch should awaken them, and they of the ana world again—a world of sunshine and should rise to be with laughter. Is there aught of sadness in this? filled. fibers rouse once more, that Easter shall be pleasant, and that lane and lawn shall have leaf and flower and bladed green. On all ordinary occa- sions we have little faith in weather prophecy—but this morning should be blithe and sunny. It really should be, for it is Easter.—Portland Oregonian. German Kiddies Believe Easter Hare Lays Eggs The Easter “hare” originated in rermany, and there the little children in the German village are taken to the woods the day before Easter and each child makes a nest of twigs and then runs away. Then when he comes back next morning, lo! the nests are all beautifully filled. Who else but the hare could have laid the eggs? For the hares do not lay ordinary eggs. Only large painted, candy eggs. At least that is what every child in Ger- many is taught to believe. In certain English provinces there is in vogue the queer “lifting” custom. If a crowd of women meet a man they seize him and lift him up three times, and h2 must pay a forfeit if he would escape. On Easter Tuesday the men retaliate. The woman must beware then. The men will seize her and lift her up and extort a kiss for her free- dom. For several years now there has been an interesting sight in the Good Friday procession in Seville. A gal- lant society man, much muffled and disguised, walks barefoot and carries a heavy cross. Those who do not know him think, of course, that he must be extremely devout to put him- self to so much discomfort. But he is not religious a bit. He is only walking to save the family money. The law of inheritance in his family compels him to do it. It seems that several centuries ago one of his ancestors, also man of many love affairs, was carried off by the Corsairs during one of the wars. made a vow that if he ever returned to Spain alive he would join the Good Friday procession and barefooted he would cerry a heavy cross. did, and furthermore, he made a con- dition that all male inheritants if they wished to inherit the family property, should do the same. the present gentleman in So while There is much of promise ful- | For the seed quickens and the | a society | While he was lying in prison he !

She wears white robes and feels her way timidly. She symbolizes Faith, Failure of Humanity to Find Real ‘Happiness, | Indictment of Christianity By REV. DR. HENRY DARLINGTON (New York), Episcopal. F THOMAS A. EDISON’S birthday statement that he did not know auy one who was really happy is a correct quotation, and if Mr. Edison is only partially right, what a judgment on 2,000 years of Christianity! One of the great things that Jesus sought to give us was happiness, joy and peace. And yet how few of us are realizing that God meant us to get the most out of life. This we are failing to do, I believe, because of four joy-killers that loom all too large in the average person’s mind, the product of over- emphasis on material values. First among these joy-killers we may place the Puritanical ideas and distorted sense of sin that too frequently make people feel that to enjoy themselves would in itself be wrong. They think that anything that is pleasing must be bad. Worry is the second of life’s great joy-killers—worry over things not worth considering. Jesus preached against worry. In one of the modern translations we “Don’t let these fear-thoughts get the better of you.” find Him saying, Our third joy-killer is the ceaseless urge of this age which seems to be prodding us on and on, Iere in America we seem to think that unless a man is working his finger nails off, there is something wrong with him. We seem unable to relax, to sit content on a beach and lister to the music of the waves. Jealousy, bringing us all sorts of unnecessary temptations, is the fourth joy-killer. Typical American and Christian Governed by Ideals Not Appetites By REV. DR. JOHN Mc¢DOWELL, Presbyterian. Character is the only foundation upon which we can build a repub- lic. Conscience, not science, is the only adequate basis for a derhocracy. To speak of our American ideals with no reference to American relig- ious faith is a thin and shallow interpretation of the nation’s soul. A nation can exist without religion, but it cannot live without it. The present situation in America creates and deepens three com- pelling convictions. First—There is no hope for Americans apart from the Kingdom of God. No new political system, no new educational system, no new indus- trial system, no mew social system apart from the Kingdom of God can ever save America. Second—There is no hope for the Kingdom of God apart from the Christian church. Other institutions will help the church, and for their help we are profoundly grateful, but not one of them will take full and primary responsibility for bringing the Kingdom of God—the king- dom of righteousness, pre and joy—into the life of America. The school will not take it, the college will not take it, the legislature will not take it, congress will not take it, the court will not take it, the lic press will not take it. If the Kingdom of God is to come into our American life, the Christian church must take primary and full respon- sibility for bringing it in. Third—There is no hope for the Christian church apart from an efficient, consecrated leadership and membership which possesses the fol- knowledge, conviction, co-operation, sacrifice pub- lowing qualities: yision, and character.
