~ the Roman CHRISTIANS TO nave:
I'D the ancient egg gorging feast of
the Aryales Fratres-pagan gods
of the continued fertility of summer
transferred to Easter and absorbed by
it, for the reason that they were not
allowed to eat eggs during Lent, the
very season when the fowls began to
lay. And so, in al lands to which
they sent Christianity, Easter is par
ticularly an egg festival, and many
are the strange customs. connected
with it's celebration in this regard.
In some parts of France the cure
bIesses the eggs on Easter eve, go

of the monarchy the biggest eggs

The Russian Easter festival lasts
four days, during which people carry
eggs and exchange them with one an
other when they meet, with this salu-
tation and answer:
Christ is risen! z
ssIt is so of truth
Then the speakers kiss, whether they
be men, women or man and woman.
The offering of an egg in exchange and
the saying of the salutation give the
right to the peasant to kiss princess
in that glorious season. Many are the
Russian romances based on the daring
of youths who did that very thing,
even before the eyes of the princely
parent, who could only Wreathe his
chagrin in smiles because of custom
and the holy season. But often the
romance ends by the irate father cut

enchanted time is over.

Two Sides to This Question,

The democratic party contends that the
tariff is the root of all evils. If there were
some way by which the members OF thai
party, and not the people of the whole
country, could be made to suffer for this
hallucinaton, there would he cause for con
graduation, and the democratic party might
be forgiven for some of its yagarieS Oak
land Rp"JIic"".
Not money" said Hillard, 'is the root
of all evil, but the love of money.
Paraphrasing the Rep"b'ico", the re-
mainder of its statement would read
this way:
If there were some way by which the
haters of money and not the people OF the
whole country, could he make to suffer for
this reckless hallucnation, there would be
cause for congratulation, and those who dis
like money might be forgiven for some OF
their vagaries.
Either way of putting it is about as
rational As the other.
And neither way explains why, if the
tariff be the root of all righteousness, 1t

To the MINING JOURNAL.
knowing that the JOURNAL and its
readers are always interested i'll any
institution of education and culture,
take pleasure i'll writing a brief account
of the abovc-named Seminary, at which
| am d student.
Situated Oh the Virginia side of the
Potomac river, seven miles from the
National Capitol and three and one hall
miles from the old historic city of
Alexandria, it is a spot admirably suited
for its purpose. Here, detached from
the whirl and hustle of worldly life, can
be developed to its fullest the spiritual
side of ones nature-that side which is
necessary to be firm and vigorous in
those who are destined to be the re-
ligious leaders and teachers of the
world.
In the year 1918 the Protestant Epis-
copal Council of the Diocese Of Virginia
determined upon the founding of "a
Theological Seminary, Nothing definite
was done until 1921 when "a class in
Theology was formed at the College of
William and Mary, which class was two
years later removed to Alexandria.
The first building being completed i'll
1921, the Seminary was removed to its
present site, where it has continued to
gro in size and influence unto the pres
ent day
That one first building has long since
been replaced by seven larger and better
fitted buildings as follows:
A Library erected in 1850; Aspinwall
Hall (recitation rooms and Prayer halD
in 1888; st. Georges 1856; Bohlen 1859,
and Meade 1860 (Students quarters and
dining rOOm; Il Chapel 1880; Wyman
Hall (gymnasium), and Whittle Hall
1889 of which have been gifts of
friends or alumni. In addition to these
five houses for the professors adorn other
parts of the grounds.
For the year 1923 there are 10 stu
dents, which is about rs large a number
enrolled at any one time during the
career of the institution, and yet from
such numbers As this there have gone
out from its walls over 200 ministers
- of whom have been promoted to the
BishODric, and more than fifty have
gone to the Foreign Mission fields.
1t is interesting to note i'll this con.
nectiOn that every new field which ouI
church has opened, has been pioneered
by men from this Seminary.
Hoping that you will give this letter
space i'll your valuable paper, that al
who are interested may know something
of this noble and historic institution
which has done and is doing so much
all over the world to raise mankind to a
higher plane of living and teach him the
blessed truths of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ, l am sincerely,

the JOURNAL to accompany him on a tour

Newspaper men, something happened
yesterday morning.
Something that induces the JOURNAL
to venture this hint:
Whenever an individual, firm or cor
poration proposing to advertise places
his or their price on yo"r service, let him
or them understand that in thus depre-
ciating the worth of your space, etc, he
or they are also confessing the inferior
selling quality Of their own goods
Brethren, this thought is original with
the JOURNAL, but it is worth ID cents a
