SERMONS


What a change has come to the
meanings of life and death. that hu-
manity can now look into a tomb with
JOY. That has ever been the place Of
mystery and fear, of sadness and de-
spondency. of gloom and grief, Of
darkness and despair. There love
turns to agony and memory to an
infinite pain. Here the song becomes
q sigh, music only discord, and laugh
ter bitter tears. Here hopes lamp is
dashed to fragments, life's stars of
JOY sink behind the clouds of doom.
O,i how dread, how fearful is the
tomb. Men have passed it with avert
cd gaze. But today the angel speaks
as Ia the day long gone by he spake
to those three timid women, say
ing: "Fear not; come. see the
place not where the Lord lies, but
where the Lord lay. He is not here.'
The terror has gone, the gloom has
vanished; the grave has lost its
dreadfulness: the power of death has
been broken. "The Lord Is risen"

EASTER LESSONS .

not stand: in the darkness. mOrtalS

ed words are spoken: now half sob

darkness died hard. 1t was the dark

Had Recently Held Auction and Had Sum Of xo,-
ey. But None Can be Accounted For,
Some time during Sunday
night or Monday morning, the
little house in which David
Strauss, aged 20 years, has been
living for the past year or so,
near the south county line on
section 35 in Georgia township
was burned down, and the trunk
OF the body of Strauss was
found in the ruins. Monday q
ueighbor who was working in
his field nearby in looking to-
ward where the house had been
located and not being able to see
it, sent boy over to the place to
make an investigation. When
the boy arrived at the place he
discovered the ruins of the
building.
The alarm was gwen and the
neigh bors made a search of the
ruins. The trunk of the body
was found, but was badly burned.
There was no way of recognizing
the body owing to the head, arms
and lower limbs being complete
~ burned off. A very small
piece of the skull was found.
The fire must have got we'll
started in order to have suffo-
Gated the man before he could
get out. Strauss was slight

pounds and was of German de.
scent. He lived in a little two
story shack in a hollow in hills,
near creek He had devoted
much of his time to hunting aud
trapping, and the metal parts of
a revolver and several guns, and
other trapping equipment were
found in the ruins.
Upon arrival of information

that the man had held IA ~dt- IF
