The advantage of a system of first
class highways is not merely one of
economy, but it will bring the towns
and the rural districts in closer touch
with one another. Contentment and
satisfaction of the rural population
would be augmented. The problem of
checking the flow from country to
city would have another encouraging
factor.

IT'S EASTER DAY.

They have seemed dead who lie on Natures
breast,
They have seemed lost IN the eternal rest;
LO, now they wake! The passing zephyr brings,
Though family yet, the scent of growing things.
Nature TO Natures God responds to-day;
The buds are swelling up on every spray
The warmth and light have come, gone is the
gloom
Gone is the GOODNESS Of the wintry tomb.
And souls uplift, there is another birth;
The Lenten season yields to followed mirth.
What rOusing life does all about disclose,
The dead have risen because He died and rose
SO, year by year, the loving cycles end;
So, year by year, the grateful prayers ascend;
The plan Of Heavenly Love is so unfurled;
The Father raised the Son, The Son the World.
Stanley Waterloo.
