Name the auther who created The observance of Easter, which comes this year during spring holidays, has a fascinating and little-known history. Numer ous disputes have figured in the formation of the details of the celebration, but the reality of the resurrection of Christ has re mained the central theme. One of the great disputes has been the setting of a fixed date for Easter. Early Christians cele brated Easter at the same time as the Jewish Passover feast, since Christ’s death fell upon the day of the feast of the Passover—the 14th day of the month of Nisan (first month of the Jewish relig ious calendar, corresponding to March-April). The Jewish calendar consisted of 12 lunar months, or 364 days, with periodically an extra month inserted to bring it in line with the solar calendar. So the date of the new Christian festival, like that of the Passover, shifted from year to year in relation to the Julian calendar, then used by the Romans, which was calculated ac cording to the solar year. Conse quently Easter has remained a moveable date, falling anywhere between March 22 and April 25, the first Sunday after the full moon following the vernal equi nox. What is the vernal equinox? It is the point at which the center of the sun moves across the ce lestial equator from south to north. This occurs about Mar. 21 and marks the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere.

Easter has not always been celebrated on Sunday. Early in the history of the church, a dis pute arose between the Jewish and the Gentile Christians. The Jewish Christians maintained that Easter should be observed, like Pesach (Hebrew word for Pass- over), on the 14th of Nisan—re gardless of the day of the week upon which it fell. On the other hand, Christians of Gentile des cent insisted that the holy day be observed on Sunday, since it was on that day of the week that the resurrection had occurred. This dispute persisted into the 4th century. In 325 the Emperor Constan tine convened the Nicaean Coun cil, where the decision was made that Easter should be observed by all on the same Sunday. But the problem was still not solved because of differences in the sys tems of chronology followed in various places. Moreover, the Gregorian correction of the calen dar in 1682 introduced still furth er discrepancies. Throughout Western Christendom the correct ed calendar is now universally ac cepted, and Easter is solemnized on the first Sunday after the full moon following the vernal equi nox. However, in the East the calendar has not been brought into accord with the Gregorian re form, and the day for Easter still seldom coincides with the Western date! The name “Easter” was pro posed by the 8th century historian Bede, who is said to have derived it from Eostra, a Germanic god- dress of dawn or spring. In many languages, the Greco-Latin title taken over from Pesach tained.

But it must have been a day for test-fatigue for, when the Gover nor asked for directions, he was answered politely and that was about all. Until he got to Moth er Lane’s room, he was not even recognized by the boy who helped him find her and was first to shake hands with him! TWENTY-ONE YEARS AGO the Baptist State Convention met on Mars Hill campus with a Bible, two pennies, a current newspaper, and a cornerstone. (“Brigham Young” was here, too, but that was with Tyrone Pow er.) All the girls were “caught,” too. The occasion? A formal join ing of Edna Moore and the “new dorm,” Stroup. THIRTY YEARS AGO two girls in Spilman were undecided. To neck or not to neck, that was the question — in a questionnaire sent to the house lassies . . . even then? The answer — as report ed by the faithful Wilter Wun- chell — neither.
