EASTER ISLAND.
\ Curious Story About One Of the
Polyuesian Group.

= Curious Story About One of the
Polyuesian Group.
Far away in the Pacific ocean lies a
lonely volcanic island which is called
Easter island from the fact that it was
discovered ON Easter day, 1922, by nav
igator named Roggereen, Dutch adj
miral. Its real name is Rapa-N ui, and
its Polynesian Inhabitants are fast dy-
ing out. Comparatively few explorers
have visited it, and, contrary to the joy
Gus spring name 1t has, it is deserted
place.
What makes Easter island Of interest
are the numbers of curious colossal stone
heads and busts, called moai, which
abound there. evidently the work of the
natives hundreds of years ago. A few
Of these are erect, but many have fallen.
The legend says that King Tukuihu
settled in Rapa-Nui and retired into a
cave, where he carved AMI cut all the
gigantic heads, which removed them
selves to their present position on the
island.
When he became old, he did not die,
bst was turned into a butterfly, which
is called in that country by his name.
Tukuihu used to search for eggs in
the nests Of the sea birds, and when be
lost his human form the chiefs who wish
ed to succeed him agreed TO search for a
certain number of eggs and the first 70
collect them was appointed king. II
seems singulat that eggs without any
especial significance should have been so
important on Easter island.---ChicagO

Ii takes me back 10 boyh0od as nothing
else could do. They tell me that here
in the north the children don't have very
much fun with Easter eggs, but In the
south, where l was raised, we used to
have great sport from Good Friday TO
Easter Monday, and the old customs still
survive TO n large extent. Picking eggs
was the popular sport with the boys. 1t
was not altogether as harmless a form
of gambling as fond parents usually i'm

The process is simple. The contest
ants must first be provided with the re-
quisite number of hard boiled eggs, usu-
ally dyed in gay colors Sometimes we
used to be able to buy real dyes and boil
the eggs in them, but the popular meth
cd in the little town where | was raised
was to get all the scraps of gay colored
calico that could be obtained, wrap each
egg carefully in the calico and boil il.
This would result in transferring the
pattern of the calico TO the egg, and the
gaudier the colors the better we liked
them. The brilliantly colored prints
which are made for the negro trade in
the sourh are seldom seen in the north,
but they were just the things we want

nature in spring Though associated in
this manner with the yernal equinox, it
is nevertheless particularly a moon-fes-
tival and most of its folklore has to
do with the lunar orb in one way or
another. The Council Of Nice, in the
year 351 A. D., decided that Easter day
should be the FIST Sunday after the first
full moon following the vernal equinox:
and if the full moon fell on Sunday.
then Easter Sunday was to be the Sun

making so-called ''moon-cakes," and in
dulging in various amusements that are
supposed to have to do with congratulate

the last-named animal constantly appears
in their art and in that of Japan, painted
upon the disk of a lunar orb. Nearly
all over the world the hare is associated
with the moon mythologically, and it is
on this account that the rabbit has so
much to do with Easter.
There has been much dispute as to
why the hare should have anything TO
do with the moon, but nobody has arriv-
ed at any satisfactory conclusion on the
subject. 1t is evidently a folklore no.

accounts for its wide distribution. The
rabbit is nocturnal in habit, coming out
at night to feed, and that may have

two-thirds vote by the bituminous coal
miners 10 accept the proposed reduction

serious struggle that would paralyze
manufacturing just when it is beginning
to revive.
Complications have arisen in the local
building trades that retard structural

far available for March show a de-
crease of only 8 per cent as compared
with last years figures
Another week has brought no check to
the progress in the iron and steel indus

denly, nor is there any inclination to ad-
vance prices by bounds as in the boom
four years ago. This conservatism will
bring beneficial results If continued. All
divisions of the pig iron market are more
active and the level OF prices tends grad
