recognition that Easter is a
festival of spring. "While
the Christian faith accepts
it as a movable feast de
pending on the time of th
Paschal moon, it is always
within the period when na
ture is awaking from win
ter to a renewal of life.
Each day the sun rises
earlier, its warmth drawing
the frost from the ground.
As if by magic the dull
fields are veiled in tender green and j
the flowers bud In the sheltered
places.
In the first days of human history
the cave man rubbed dry sticks to
gether to steal fire from the sun.
When the spring melted the ice of
winter, he bowed more profoundly to
the great luminary in the sky as It
appeared in the east, and later when
he built his altars he renewed the
fires when the sun turned northward.
The word Easter is from the Saxon
"Eostre," the name of the goddess of
Bpring. "Eoster" lived in the east
with the rising sun. She was th
most gentle of all the deities of the
pagan world. As sne trippea across
the meadows the grass came out, the
flowers blossomed, the ice was broken
in the brooks, and the streams sang
merrily. All the earth rejoiced, for
the fairer seasons of the year were at
hand.
Significant of Resurrection.
Each year Eostre was born again
significant of the resurrection from
the dead of the Christian faith. The
young plants awoke to life from dry
seeds, the chicks from the eggs, and
everywhere in nature the springtide
under the spell or Eostre Decame
lovely after the winter's sleep.
The Romans adopted the Saxon
Eostre as their goddess Aurora, When
the Christian fathers were naming the
feasts of the church it was a wise
thought that brought the old nature
worship and the Easter resurrection
Into harmony.
The Emperor Constantino, at the
beginning of the fourth century, re
solved to fix the time of Easter teat
it should not conflict with the Jewish
Passover. To prevent disputes, he
made the rules which were accepted at
the Council of Nice in 325 A. D. The
twenty-first day of March was known
as the Vernal Equinox, the next full
moon was the moon of Xisan, or the
Jewish Passover, and the Lord's Day
following was Easter Day. But If the
full moon happened on a Sunday,
Easter Day was the Sunday after that.
Old Easter customs, while differing
widely according to religions and lo
calities, had some things in common.
The Easter flower has always been
sacred to altars. Today we speatt or
the Easter lily, meaning the St. Jo
seph lily, and in other parts of the
world the daffodil, or tne narcissus,
or the calla lily may be regard-sd a
the Easter lily.
The colored Easter eggs, as gay ae
the Easter flowers In the fields, are
universal. In Russia and in Paris,
and in fact today in all large cities
of the world, imitation eggs are made
of confectionery, and jewelers go so
far as to make eggs of gold and sil
ver and to set them with gems for the
Easter trade.
Easter Symbols Universal.
The Christian church introduced
the most beautiful celebrations of all.
Easter is the inspiring feast of the
year and its celebration means a re
newal of faith. Even in remote parts
of the world, where priests and their
little flock's assemble, the Easter
lights burn on the altars and faithful
congregations sing Easter carols with
Joy.
The most solemn celebration of all
Is that held In the Church of the Holy
Sepulcher at Jerusalem. Pilgrims as
semble from every corner of Christen
dom, and ascend the Via Dolorosa
chanting prayers. Many attend th
feet-washing ceremonies, and throngs
haste to the church where devotion
keeps them waiting from Good Friday
until Saturday afternoon, when the
Patriarch with unlighted torch enters
the gloom of the sepulcher.
They watch with bated breath for
his return. No light flickers in tM
darkness, then suddenly a blaze
flames up, the torch is on fire and
with a shout of thanksgiving the mul
titude breaks into singing a glorious
hymn of thanksgiving. Those nearest
the altar eagerly snatch fire from the
torch, candle after candle is lighted
until every taper in the church is
burning. The worshipers rise, the
doom is dispelled, and they go forth
into the gray of the morning greeting
one another, "Christ is arisen!" meet
ing the reply, "He Is arisen indeed!"
Ceremonies at Rome.
The festal ceremonies at Rome are
most splendid. The Pope officiates at
mass on that day and St Peter's la
filled with cardinals, prelates, and dig
nitaries from all parts of the world.
The day is ushered in by firing can
non from the Castle of St, Apgelo.
The magnificent basilica is richly
decorated, altars are newly ornament
ed, the lights around St. Peter's tomb
are burning, and the Pope is seated
In his chair of state in vestments
ablaze with gold.
Beautiful Easter Carols.
Easter carols are sung in all Chris
tian lands. Some of the most beauti
ful are those from the Tyrol, where
singers go from house to house. Spain
gives way to joy in fetes, and gifts are
made to the Virgin, who is adorned
with her best robes and jewelB at this
time. Russians enjoy a gift tree,
like our Christmas tree, while jew
eled Easter eggs are exchanged in
the imperial household.
There Is a mystery about the ori
gin of the Easter rabbit of Germany
Egg-hunting in the forest, where
grown people have hidden the colored
eggs, 13 as popular as egg-roinng is
on the WThite House grounds in Wash
ington. In some places doves are lib
erated at Easter, and it is quite gen
eral to fill Easter baskets with flow
ers, or cakes, and to make visits to
renew good will among friends.
A great deal of beautiful music haa
been written for the Easter services,
which have become elaborate occa
sions in the churches. Many carols
that are sung have been handed down
by tradition and repeated from father
to son. They frequently tell the New
Testament story of the first Christian
Easter morning when Christ rose
from the tomb, and gave all human br
ings faith in immortality.

FTER the wonderful mid
night mass on the eve of
Easter, when at 12 o'clock
bells sounded within the
church, and, as each one of
the thousands assembled
lighted his candle, the cry
went up, "Christ is risen!"
came the Easter morning
ceremony in the court of
the holy sepulcher.
Ah, how gentle, how ten
der, how touching, how vi
tal It was, that simple
greeting of the wonderful
morning after the delirium
and the fury of the holy fire! Robert
Hichens says in the Century. All
hearts were excited to frenzy by the
holy fire. The Easter morning pro
cession moved hundreds to tears,
held them tensely silent. Instead of
the blue dome, spangled with artifi
cial stars, a faint blue sky was over
our heads. Instead of the glare of
the torches, the sunbeams fell mildly
upon us. Instead of the yelling multi
tudes, we heard the sound of the won
derfui bells. They began to peal forth
just before the procession entered the
court from the city.
Down below me I saw tears stream
ing over the seamed faces of many
Russians as they signed themselves,
kissed one another, told one another,
"Christ is risen!" answering to the
triumphant proclamation of the bels,
which, unwearied, reiterated their
marvelous message to the children of
men. And the canvasses in blue and
red and gold came slowly into the
court, and a man carrying the cross,
and boys in red and gold with swing
ing lamps on chains, and many priests
In black. And there followed a priest
with his arms full of flowers, and be
hind him another bearing on high the
risen Christ crowned with a halo of
gold and framed in a glory of blos
soms. Then there rose from the thousands
of pilgrims a cry of sweet exulta
tion, and the bells seemed to grow
louder as they told Jerusalem that the
marble house was empty, that the
stone had been rolled away. The
bishops appeared in pale yellow, pearl
color and gold, all holding lighted
candles. And last of all came Dam-
lanos, bearing a staff and a jeweled
picture of the risen Christ. The pro
cession stopped. The bells were si
lent. There was a pause. Then the
patriarch took a step forward, gazed
at the immense crowd of adoring pil
grims, lifted the Jeweled picture of
Christ, held it out toward them and
said, "Christ Is risen!"
As his voice died away the priest
with the flowers raised his arms and
showered blossoms over the crowd;
the bells pealed forth again; the pro
cession moved on and the pilgrims,
eagerly lighting their candles and em
bracing one another, closed in behind,
crying, "Christ is risen! Christ is
risen!"
And so into the darkness of the
great church, quietly, softly, the pro
cession gradually vanished. The gloom
was lit up by the candles of priests
and pilgrims. Through the doorway
I saw Damlanos in his gorgeous vest
ments sink humbly down to kiss the
stone of unction. Then the Russians,
weeping with joy, moved forward and
hid him from my sight.
HE lily is, in the great na
tions of the world, being
considered as important
nowadays, on account of its
symbolism, as the holly or
the evergreen. Indeed,
there seems to be little dif
ference between the Im
portance accorded to Christ
mas and that given to Eas
ter. Each stands In its sym
bolism for a deep religious
event, and each in Its place
holds a significance not to
be filled by the other.
It is regretted by some people that
an observance such as the Easter
festival had its inauguration in a cere
mony that was an outgrowth of a
pagan festival. But to the broad
minded the fact appears as an evi
dence of the lasting traits of man, re
curring in different ages, and modified
to suit the conditions of the times.
The twentieth century celebration
Is the modern evolution of heathen
Ideals influenced by those of the
Christian religion. From time
memorial man has celebrated
birth of spring the passing of
gloomy days of winter.
Easter, through the happy initiative
of the Emperor CenBtantlne in the
fourth century, was celebrated not on
the day of the Jewish Passover, but
the Sunday after. The variation of
the date depends upon the fact that
the vernal equinox, of the 21st day of
March, is the point from which the
first Sunday after the full moon la
reckoned.
The first observance of Easter dates
back as far as 68 A. D. From that
time it has meant much to Christians,
and in the Joyous rebirth of Christ
there is a general heartfelt resolution
to emerge into the springlike fresh
ness of newer Ideals and better things.

T was a happy thought, to
ask me to relate the story
of the delightfully pictur
esque Easter which I
passed at Justin's not so
many years since. If in
my unskilled way I can
trace the faces, note some
of the soulful utterances,
and limn the effect which
contact with the meek
spirits over at the low red
cottage near the hill, In
spired In me, twill make
me Joyous of heart, and
stir my soul with thanks.
And inasmuch as Easter is
symbolical of spirituality,
budding after a winter of worldlyism,
and each Easter we blossom forth
anew with a desire for more spiritual
ity, it's comforting that in thought, at
least, I may turn to the scene which
uplifted my alms and ambitions. It's
because of this that I try to coax back
to mind the incidents of genial good
fellowship which humanized the occa
sion of which I am about to speak.
Right after sunrise there assembled
In the crowded combination room In
the low frame dwelling, known for
miles as Justins', thirteen of us, eight
children and five adults. It was a
rare company. The old grandfather,
slightly bent a luxury of bushy hair
turned white hands thin and knotty,
always outstretched in welcome, and
Janie, the dearest little minx that
ever reigned, at his side, coaching him
if he should fail to discern the speak
er, graciously acted as hosts, and
made us all feel very much at home.
The atmosphere was so peaceful there
that one could not help but be drawn
to the others present. Like an en
chanted fairy's, Janie's golden locks
shed a splendor all about the room,
but with this glimmer was outshone
by the illuminated countenance of
the grandfather which radiated the
light from within.
Weeks ahead, Janie had confided to
me her design to get all the really
poor children to come up to her place
for some Easter joy. To use her own
phrase, "I want to give all the poor
kids a lot of fun on Easter morn." In
this I consented to act as procurer to
the extent of inducing one little crip
ple to promise for my sake that was
the way I put it to accompany me to
Justins'. This little chit of a girl,
Agnes, was weary of heart because of
the thought that her own widowed
mother, whose life's blood was going
out fast, could not muster enough
strength to attend, but she did not
evince any sign of agitation for fear
that it might cause a gloom to settle
on the enthusiasm of the others. I
have always believed that one of the
happy moments in Agnes life was
when Janie embraced her in her arms,
and literally smothered her in her
small bosom with all the warmth that
she could exude.
Hardly had the word been given
1 that all was ready for the egg hunt,
when I offered my arm to Grandpa,
who, with his eyes always turned in
my direction, from habit, nodded a
gracious acceptance as he suited action-
to the word and hitched his arm
Into mine. Off we strode. The whole
company, divided off in twos, threes
and fours, scampered over the ground,
examining every foot of soil to locate
the nests of colored eggs, chocolate
bunnies and other goodies which had
beet secreted the day before by John
Choppe, who alone did not join in the
search. One moon-faced, round, chub
by broth of a boy, failing to extract
any information from John Choppe as
to the whereabouts of some of the
"plants," was wandering off by him
self, sulkingly, when there suddenly
was great rejoicing and shouting.
Far away yonder by the sharp el
bow in the stream where the enor
mous chestnut tree branches hang
low In that secluded spot, Janie car
rying a little tot in her arms and lead
ing caressingly my crippled friend,
Agnes was seen, holding high over her
head what looked as a particularly
rich find. It was a large rooster in
chocolate. Immediately from every
part of the field came groups of anx:
lous eyes who wanted to examine the
Bnd at close range. There was great
glee.
After all the eggs that had been
hidden by John Choppe had been un
sovered, and there had been a gen
irous distribution of the plunder, the
company started to retrace its steps
I

"Well, that is no reason why he

through the blossoming plum trees
and peach trees, along an alley where
the foliage In its Bymphony of green
adorned the group of merry Easter
children. It was here that Grandpa
Justins drew us all nearer to him.
He stood up in the center, all alone,
and asked us to surround him, and
be seated on the soft turf. His voice
was like a song in a minor key.
"I have long yearned for this op
portunity to say a word to you, and
this occasion is most favorable to
thought and meditation." He was not
preachy. He spoke in that gentle
tone for which he was known all his
life. "I want to converse with my
self and with you," he continued, "and
make it possible for us to live closer
to the Inner life. I want to be more
eonscious that I am worshiping right
that I am using the God-given grace
tor snencmg sunering and sorrow,
and strengthening the weak and the
meek." His state of soul was of that
delicate softness.
As it is difficult to be happy and b
away from divine, influence, is it not
best to creep up as close to the foun
tain head of the precious love of th
Master and Savior of Man? It was
this thought that I have carried with
me since that sermon of Grandpa Jus
tins on that memorable Easter morn,
