EASTER THIS YEAR..
Date May Be Uncertain if Prayer
Book Rule is Followed.

The present year is one in which uncer-
tainty might arise as to the date OF Easter,
# the Prayer Book rule were strictly fol-
lowed. DIR. Downing, F. X. s., of the
National Almanac office, stated that in
lduities have been addressed t. him OH the
subject According 10 the Prayer Book,
Easter Day ION which all other movable
feasts and holy days depend) ''is always
the first sunday after the full moon, which
happens upon the next after the 2Ist day of
March,"
In 1905 the moon is full on the morning
of Tuesday, March 21st, at Al. 56 min.
Greenwich time, and therefore, Easter Day
would Sc, m to be the Sunday following,
March 26lh. But, explains DR.. Browning,
'the moon referred 10 in the ecclesiastical
calendar is not the actual moor In the sky,
which is full at a definite instant of time;
but a fictitious mO0n, the time of the phases
IF which are so arranged rs not to differ
much from those of the actual moon.
These phases are held to occur vaguely
on certain days ard hold good for all Ion
gitudes.I In the instances before rs the act
ual moon is full at All. St min, a. NJ,
Greenwich time, while the same moon is
full at llh. 4S min, p. H., ION the preced-
ing day. Washington mean time. Thus
people adopting Greenwich time would
keep Easter Oh March 26th, while those
adopting Washington time would keep it
on April 23rd the next full moon." DIR
Downing gives as the simplest expression
for the date of preceding full moon, and
the Paschal full moon is found by adding
% to this date. In 1905 the epact is "a
and the calendar moon is full on March 20
and April 18th. The latter is, therefore
the Paschal full moon, and Easter Day is
the Sunday following April 23rd-as stated
in the allnanacs.

THE EDITORS SPHERE

The editor has a hard place to
fill, and especially so If he tries to
get along smoothly through life.
On one occasion the writer IN
tended doing a great favor to a
young couple who had run away
from parents and got married, oy
giving them a nice write-up. The
notice of the marriage was head
ed "a Gretna Green affair. In a
few days the following message
sent to the editor: 81 want
you to understand that am nc
greener than you are if you are
an editor. My husband will see
YOU about this insulting notice. .
THE BRIDE.
From some cause or other the
husband did not call and we are
glad he did not.
On another occasion a very tai.
man was engaged in weather
boarding a church building. The
editor in Doting the improvement
said that the church had employ
ed a. man, did not name him, sui
fciently tall to do the work with
out the expense of scaffoldlng
The next day this tall man visit
ed the editors sanctum, with {
frown upon his brow and remain
ed for an hour or more and refus
ed. even to comfort the editor b.
making known his business. Fl
nally he left as he came and M
damage resulted.
These are the troubles tina
editors often get into unwilling
ly.

THE GROUND HOG

The ground hog theory so far
this season has not been exploded.
While the weather has been ex-
stremely inclement 1t has not
been extremity cold, though cold
enough.
The ground hog as a prognos-
ticator is a miserable fraud, and
the same is true of the almanacs
that frequently promise US lots of
snow when there is none, OF
promise us no snow when there
is lots of it. With our present
knowledge of the weather, the
service given US by the United
States is generally correct, though
that system is not faultless.
"The wind bloweth where it
listeth and we hear the sound
thereof, but cannot tell whence it
cometh or whittier it goeth."
These winds have a resting
place and there are conditions
that set them in motion. They
are, at times, severe in their work
and at other times only gentle
zephyrs. We can here the roa1
of them and often feel the effects,
but never yet have we seen them,
They may be precursors of foul OF
fair weather, Of cold or warm
weather, all depending upon
which way they come. We are
sure of one thing, and hat is,
they perform a good service, if
they do blow our hats off and fill
our eyes with dust and sand.

Letter From Bat Cave
Bat Cave n. c.

bdU lave IN. W
Dear Editor:-If you will be so kind
as to allow NE space in your valued
paper, I will say as we sit quietly by
the warm fire and cast a look at the
earth wrapped in its snow-white robe'
and the beautiful feather-like flakes
still falling, we sometimes think that
we would like very much indeed to fall
asleep with Mother Nature and not
wake up until spring comes again. But
Mother Nature doesn't go to sleep dur
ing the winter hours, but just brings
about a change of work, and teaches US
a beautiful lesson that we should ever
heed. The creeks may be ice-covered
and peacefully silent. The timber may
be bare of leaves, and be sleet-laden.
But the process of life goes on just the
same preparing for the most, lovely
spring time that mortal eye a behold
with all it's fragrant flowers that
bedeck the banks of the crystal
streams which so gently murmur by on
their way to meet the ave of the
deep blue sea. And if we do not enjoy
life as we find it, we are not fulfilling
our obligations to our creator. Hap,
piness is our birth-right and a heritage
| that no one can take from us, unless we
~dispossess ourselves of it. 1t is moi
work that steals from US our brightnes:
| and cheerfulness. But it Is worry that
curses the human race. So let's take
things as we find them.
However the following few verses will
give you an idea as to my own restless
ness.
81 am the queerest sort of boy the
world has ever seen.
In fact ] don't suppose before, my
like has yer been.
Because from early dawning to the
setting of the sun,
always want to do the things tina
really can't be done.
For instance when the summer come!
l sit down by the gate
And almost zeal my hair with rage
because l can't skate.
And through the heated Angus
nights 1 often lie ia bed,
And moan and groan because l can
go coasting on my sled.
Then when the frigid winters her,
and things begin to freeze,
1 feel as though I'd like to climb u
in the apple trees
And pluck the blossoms from tn
twigs but blossoms none are there
When winter winds are blowing an,
the apple boughs are bare.
And 1 would say to other boys VIII
think it's fun to be
Contrary wise that they would bes
take warning now from me-;
Because [ find the habit leaves m
always dull and sad,
And makes of me a very drear, i'll
natured sort of lad.
The above little poem would yer
likly apply to all of US, and would be
good lesson if we would take it as such
Wishing The Hustler a long and pros
porous life.
Respectfully.
PETER SHACKLEFOOT.

O%STEOPATHIC AIMS
Sec. Meacham Talks Interestingly
OF Little Known Profession


DR.. w. Banks Meacham, of Asheville.
secretary of the North Carolina Osteopathic
Association talked interestingly last night
on the aims and progress of his peculiar
science which durir G the past few years
has had a frequent exploitation at the
hands of both the Legislature and the
courts. AS will be remembered the hill
passed at the last session of the General
Assembly requiring o~steopaths To undergo
an examination at the hands of the State
Medical Board was declared unconstitu-
tional by the Supreme Court and the mem
bers of the profession are now permitted
to practice within the State without.et or
hIndrance.
The purpose of the bill urged yesterday
by DR.. Meacham and 9th ers is, they say.
to establish within the bounds of their own
association a similar standard of efficiency
to that required by physicians in the
practice of medicine. The law having in
tervened to give them the right of practice
INDEPENDENTLY of the medical cult, they
desire to be endowed with the same rights
of discrimination accorded to the board
which has the power of accepting or re-
jecting applicants for license to practice
medicinetiu the practice of osteopathy.
The bill, according to the members of the
ASSOCIATION, is aimed only at unworthy
parties who without experience or practical
knowledge trade upon a little known and
