EASTER: CHRIST AND THE POOR

In Russia, where the people to expend upon rei
gous observances the energy which allowed to put
into politics, Easter is great occasion People kiss each
,aother meeting saying 'Chrst is risen! And the
person sauted returns the KISS shouting with great JOY
''He is risen indeed*'
All over Chrstendom the bells ring out the best robes
donned, the highest sung, the grandest

Only there will be this difference Some will be salts

much little looks at it; but if that sweet spirit,
with which He set forth to conquer the wordf that be
