the eye is caught by the tender spring
bushes of blossoming nature, cleaning here
and there from banks of hyacinths, daffodils
tulips and a bewildering variety of other
dubious treasures, and again from the bud
laden boughs of trees and shrubs And over
the thick green grass romps and plays mot
ley picture of young America. Tiny tots
crow from the baby carriages that dot the
lawns and walks; little toddlers bend down
in eager waiting for the brilliant-hued egg
that mamma or nurse rolls toward them;
bigger boys and girls dash in and out in Wig
orous sport, chasing one another Joyously,
and still bigger boys and girls saunter along
and seek vantage places whence they can
view the throngs and feel the fancy peculiar
to spring steal over them.
BY noon the crowd usually is already

mendous, and still new arrivals in long, un-
broken lines make their way through every

tude is gathered together. At 2:30 cheer
goes up, for then the United States Marine
band takes its place in the music stand, and
when the leader raises his baton every pulse
chimes in with the time of the melody it
brings forth. Truly, Easter Monday is a
glorious day for the boys and girls of Wash

when the crowds turn homeward at sun
down, hearts still throb with pleasure and
memory stores away another treasure to
gladden. coming years.
The egg-rolling always affords pleasure to
the occupants of the white house, and it is
said that President Cleveland took an active
interest in the sport, even before Baby Ruth
was old enough to share in its enhancing
runs. President Grant, also, gave unlimited
liberties TO the children, and President Nc
klnley is reported to be an interested OBJ
server of the doings of his little guests.
The fact of the matter is that any presi-

Old Easter Customs
Many Of Them Still in Vogue

NH ANY curious Easter customs and
Mll superstitions have come down to
u II us from the old Saxon celebration
of the day. One is that the sun dances in the
sky on Easter morning, and in Devonshire,
England, young girls still get up early to see
the planet skip about. If an east wind is
blowing on Easter morning II is a custom in
some parts of Germany to draw water and
wash in it, thus avoiding all danger from
the east wind during the coming year. In
the county of Sussex. England, the peasants
believe that if the sun shines on Easter day
it will shine, if only little, every day in the
year; if it rain, every day will see rain, If
only few drops. In Continental Europe
the peasants formerly celebrated the day by
putting robes on one of their number, crown.
ing him with tin crown and saluting him as
king
In Russia the feast is celebrated on Easter
eve. All night long the streets are brilliant
ly lighted and crowded with people in new
clothes. At midnight mass is said in all the
Greek churches. Russians call Easter
"The Opener of the Gates Of Paradise"
InGreece men and women greet each other
with kiss exchanging red eggs and the
customary Easter greetings.
In Rome, naturally, the celebration of
Easter is most splendid. Formerly the pope
himself said mass in st, Peters The day
was ushered in by the firing Of cannon. St.
Peters was brilliantly lighted and splen-
didly decorated, and the Papal guards, in
full uniform, formed double line from the
altar to the shrine of the apostles. At night
St. Peters was lit by hundreds of thousands
of tiny oil lamps. Later they were extin-
guished and as many basins Of golden fire
were Lit at the same time The ceremonies
have lost some Of their splendor in recent

Easter Egg Rolling
A Washington Pastims

~ FALL American cities Washington,
(\S the nations capital, is the only one
~ which has distinctive Easter cee-
bratIon. How and where the Easter Monday
egg-rolling originated no one now living in
Washington can tell; but that the beautiful
slopes of the white house grounds, where the
annual event occurs, give it inviting encour-
agement no one seems willing to dispute.
With every year the crowd Of youngsters
engaged in the harmless sport has increased,
and the egg-rolling has finally grown to the
Importance of festival The public schools
are closed on Easter Monday, and thousands
of children swarm about the enchanting
white house grounds. These. are prettily di-
versifed with little hills and intermediate
valleys, and on the knoll above the steepest
of these grassy slopes the children gather.
Baskets and boxes are quickly emptied and
the sport of rolling the colored eggs begins.
1t has no apparent object, unless it is to test
the strength of the egg shell and see how
many times it will go humping over rough
places without breaking. Some of the little
tots try to roll their eggs against others to
see which win break; others run after their
eggs as they roll down, to catch them before
they reach the bottom, 80 that they may not
break. But they are not long-lived. Even
the hard-boiled egg has its limit of endur-
ance. Before long the first corners have seen
the best of their colored treasures broken
and scattered over the grass. But the new
corners constantly bring fresh supply, and
keep things rolling"
A view of this pleasing scene leaves a
never-to-be- forgotten impression on the
adult observers mind. In every direction
