BRIGHT IS +HE EASTER BAwN.
Today is Easter, and the prospects

Today is Easter; and the prospects
yesterday were for perfect weather
Easter day. The day of sunlight,
and gladness and music. The day Is
glad because it commentaries the
gladdest event the World ever knew,
the day that is bright with sunlight,
because the Son of Righteousness has
arisen with healing in his wings; the
day that is glad with song and palpitant
with melody, because the heart of men
are filed with the joyous echoes of
that grand triumphal chorus, Christ is
risen, Allelula
Naturally Easter day is associated
with flowers and brightness and
music. We think of it as a day of
rising, as a time of the triumph of day
over night, JOY over sorrow, life over
death.

festival, and the temples will be
thronged with the devout. The peni-
tential season is over. the solemn
time of prayer and fasting and self
sbasement is past.
All nature smiles, happy in the
caressing touch of spring, and we are
to break forth into glad songs of praise
and anthems of triumph. The music
in the churches Is always especial fea
ture of the Easter day worship, and
today's services will show no excep-
ton IN this respect.
The choirs of most of the various
places of worship have been preparing
special musical numbers for the day,
and those who attend the services may
expect TO be charmed with the music
