Scriptural account of the resurrection,
and preliminary to this was given a
sort OF object lesson in the meaning Of
the mysterious process. In the course
of this latter feature huge nest OF
beautifully colored eggs-which are
symbolic of the resurrection-was the
deus ex machina.
On the afternoon of Holy Saturday
Father Boniface, the young monk who
had charge Of this important duty,
craved an audience with the abbot Of
the foundation.
"Alas. my lord" said the young
monk dejectedly, ''the foxes have eaten
every chicken belonging to the abbey.
They have, in fact, eaten every chicken
in the country, and there isn't an egg
to be had for love or money"
''Then why haven't you seen to it
that we were rid Of the pests?' the
abbot asked severely.
Because your lordship has ordained
that no living thing which Is mention
ed with respect In the sacred Scrip
lures shall be hurt, and the fox is men

spectfully," Father Boniface reminded
him.
The Benedictine smiled family. "The
fox is sly sinner, but he should not
be permitted to outwit a community
living under the rule of the blessed
Benedict" he said dryly. 'In the good
old days, my brother, you would have
gone directly to heaven with your
plant and not to your abbot"
The young monk betook himself
to the chapel and passed the night
In vigil. At early dawn he arose from
his aching knees and sought the nest
which he had left empty. As be ap-
preached snow white rabbit leaned

toymaker. Each district has Its own
popular variant. Baden's legend is as
follows:
In the mountains overlooking Frei-
burg early in the twelfth century there
was an abbey Of Benedictines who
dominated the spiritual affairs Of the
entire countryside. At the abbey
church the Easter festival was always
celebrated with marked splendor, and
it was visited on those occasions by
the devout from all Germany. One OF
