THE CHATHAM RECORD, PITTSBORO, N. C.
The TWn.
Easter f There is something in the
very name that suggests all that the
; day stands for. Hope, Faith, Resur
rection! Its sound carries us back
across the centuries to that first
glorious. Easter morning, when the
bereaved 1 women came to the tomb
and found that death had been con
quered. It brings us a vision of the
white-robed: angel in the sepulcher,
saying to these wefcping women: “Be
not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of
Nazareth, which was crucified: He is
risen;: He is not here.’’ And the com
fort and' hope of the words fill us
with joy, for- even Nature today re
echoes the words, as we witness the
miracle of resurrection all around us.
Every field and meadow, every open
ing bud and blossom, the glory and
brightness of the spring day, all
bring happy assurance to our heart.
All that is beautiful never really
dies; each year there is added beauty
and loveliness as the world awakens
from its winter sleep. And so, too,
we feel, that we shall know that end
less life and resurrection in that far,
fair,country that awaits beyond. The
promise that He made is still with us,
and Easter day, with all its joy and
all that it stands for, assures us that I
; ’it’ will come true. ’•

WELCOME EASTER
WEf.y ■g. • Jjft : : :-Z
Thy voice of heart and spirit
raise,
O, Church o£ God, with songs
of praise.
Be ever blest, our Easter morn.
When hope was born.
Darkness Dispelled on
First Easter Morning
Easter is the promise of the Lord
that all the best and noblest in man
shall be renewed, even as growth and
bloom and ripening shall not cease.
Belief in eternal life compels us to
believe in good deeds and honest
thought. The good man toils not for
today, nor for tomorrow alone, but
because he knows that his labor shall
survive long after his hand has fallen
from the plow. ’ The good map pours
himself into the world andmakes
new. He is among the blessed who
win sight out of blindness, order out
of chaos, and life out of death.
Since the first mornipg the.
soul of man has shone with* unwasting
light; for then he looked into the
radiant .face of the risen Christ and
knew that God’s universe shapes It
self not to destruction but to a yet
more glorious genesis; yea, it endur
eth from everlasting to everlasting.—
Helen Keller.
Most Beautiful Festival
The religious observances, past and
present, connected with Easter vary,
and are innumerable, but primarily
they have one idea: the festival of the
resurrection of Christ, observing it as
the principal feast of the Christian
era.
In every home and in every church
It is a significant, spontaneous and
universally beautiful festival; a day
of rejoicing and happiness.
In every pulpit in the world on
Easter messengers proclaim that man
shall overcome all his enemies, con
quering even death itself.
In the story of Gethsemaae and the
darkness of Calvary and story of
Christ triumphant, the world takes
new courage and sees goodness and
right triumphant over sin and Injus
tice, humility conquering pride and
hate cast out. by-love.
