EAST r.

The festival of the resurrec-
ton of Jesus Christ. In the
ancient church the celebration
of Easter lasted eight days. 1t
was formerly the favorite time
for performing the rite OF bap-
tism. Courts of justice were
closed; slaves received their
freedom; people gave them
selves up to enjoyment; pOpu-
lar sports and dances were
given and the clergy would re-
cite from the pulpit farcical
stories and legends. Against
all this the reformers in the Six
teenth century loudly and sue
cessfully raised their voices i.
Then began the holding of dali
ly services. On Easter Day
the people saluted each other
with the Eastern kiss and the
exclamation, HE is risen"
This day is now and will be fit
ly celebrated throughout the
Christian nations of the earth
The cardinal doctrines of
the Christian religion clus-
ter around that event, and
1.-THE truth of salvation through
the Redeemer hangs solely upon
the fact of Christ's having
arisen from the tomb. While
the beautiful, though perhaps
heather legend of the rabbits
and the eggs brighten the lives
and cheer the hearts of the mil
lions of children III Christian
homes of this and other lands.
the grander and deeper mean

ton of the Lord Christ on
