A Late Easter Due, This Year.

Easter Sunday will fall this year
on April 70, which is as late as it
can usually come and later than it
has come before in a century. 1t is
known in the church calendar as a
movable feast and its coming is
regulated by the fulling of the moon.
It comes on the first Sunday after the
first full moon following the vernal
or spring equinox. This latter comes
on March 81. This year the moon
fulls on April 16 and that throws
Easter to the following Sunday. 1t
is possible for the feast TO fall on
March q, but never earlier.
