Something Ahoat Easter.

This year Easter Sunday will fall on the
2nd of April. The earliest possible day for
Easter is the 22nd Of March, and it fell on that
day in lSl8-for the FIST time in about 200
years. One object in arranging the calendar
moon was that Easter might never fall on the
same as the Jewish Passover. They did occur,
however, in 1850 on the l4th day of April, in
1925 on the 3rd day OF April, and will do so
again in 1923 on the lat of April, in 1927 on
the 18th OF April and in 1881 on the 18th of
April. Last year Easter and the Passover
we're separated but by single night. The
Jewish festival usually occurs in Passion week
in Lent, and Fever before the 18th of March or
after the 10th of April. On the other hand,
The Christian festival is never before the 22ud
of March or after the 25th OF April. In 1913
Easter will fall on the 22nd Of March, as it did
IN ls45 and 1856. The latest Easter occurred
in 1886, the 25lh of April. and it will net fall
on that date again until 1913.
