Facts About Easssr Dates,

Easter, falling on SO carly Il date
this year, makes some Easter statis-
tics interesting.
The earliest date on which Easter
can fall is March %. The moon must
then be full on March 81, and that
combination Of circumstances is tx
tremely rare. Easter Sunday has
fallen as early as March % in 1903, in
1851 and in 1917, and it will fall on
March % again in 1900, POTS and 2144.
The latest date on which Easter can
fall is April %. That happened in
1866, in 1870 and in 1885. 1t will hap
pen again in 1913. This year it falls
on March 9th.

conclusion of the morning service, II
desire to thank the congregation for
fifty-seven buttons placed in the COL

If now the philanthropically inclined
donors of these objects will put a

of other strictly secular garments on
the plate next Sunday morning, so
that we may have something to sew
these buttons on, we shall be addi-
tionally grateful. .''-Harper's Weekly.
