The First Easter Day
BY STANLEY WATERLOO.
Never so sweet a hush
To- III T,,dac~ ,cjrh%o

Never SO sweet a hush
In all Judean nights,
Never SO fair a sun
Rose DER Judean Heights,
Never SO lowering close
Did all of heaven lean
AS when approached the tomb
The weeping Magdalene.
What marvel greets her eyes!
Too tear-bedimmed are they?
Behold no portal barred;
The stone is rolled away!
Vacant the sheltering depth
Where he was laid to rest,
Vacant the narrow space
Whereon his body pres't.
Only the cerements white
Where He, the Son, had lain
Only at head and foot
The guarding angels twain,
The guarding angels twain,
Of gentle mien and grave,
To speak Of word fulfilled
OF him who died to save.
How spread the mighty truth,
How all the earth Givined!
What glorious promise kept
The saviour of mankind!
And, so, the world is glad
And men, rejoicing, pray,
AS did his servants when
Came the first Easter day.

callv with reference to the conditions ana re-
ourements presented by the particular church
in which it is to be installed. Accordingly, DE-
fore beginning work upon a large pipe organ Tor
q church the builder must study not only the
architecture of the church, but also the coors
presented in the frescos on walls and ceiling ana
other features of the decorative scheme pipe
organ is made up Of several thousand dlherent
parts and the great pipes from which peal 1ortn
sonorous sound on Easter morning are, IN the
case of the largest organs, each thirty-two feet
in length.
The Easter season always brings into especial
prominence the song service" another compare
lively recent development of church activities
Such service, as its name would imply, pre-
sents program that is almost wholly musical IN
one form or another and that in most churches
embraces both vocal and instrumental solos. or
course, song services are held in churches all
through the year, but those at Easter have espe
cia1 significance and present more than ordinar-
lily pretentious programs. The most popular hour
for the song service is at four o'clock in the att
ernoon, which time prevents it from interfering
or rather conflicting with any of the other church
services. In the southern cities where Easter
usually is characterized by balmy atmosphere
the outdoor Easter song service is gaining popu.
larity in the same measure that open-air church
services gaining vogue in all parts OF the
country during the summer.

bureaus have been established spe"
cially to carry on negotiations look
ing to the engagement of choir sing
ers. Some singers are so much IN
demand that they sing In two or
even three churches each Sunday,
and an amusing Illustration OF the
lengths to which churches WILL go
to secure coveted soloists was al
forded recently when a rich church
in a leading Eastern city had spe"
cial door constructed SO that. a
vocalist after singing her solos
might slip out unobserved In time
to fill similar engagement IN an
other church down the street.
In the average church the great
est factor, next to the vocalists, IN
making the Easter music is the pipe
organ. These monster instruments
with their rich deep tones In ire
mendous volume seem to provide
the ideal background for the soar"
ing melody of the Easter anthems.
Nowadays every church that is very
ambitious aspires to a pipe organ
but here again we find it possible
for churches to be decidedly ex-
travagant, for $4,000 is by no means
an unusual price for pipe organs OF
@the largest size in this day and age.
The demand for these instruments
may be imagined, however, from
the fact that America, which leads
the world in such manufacture, now
has seventy-tive pipe organ manu-
facturers.

small sizes, are not built In accord

mothers time, that they would have
church services without music. On
the contrary they recognize that
music is an important, not to say
essential, feature Of devotional ex-
ercises. What they complain about,
though, is the seeming disposition
IN some churches, particularly the
fashionable ones, to have the must
cal numbers completely overshadow
the sermon and the prayers and
everything else.
But for all that there exists this
vide difference of opinion as to the
part music should play in church
services there Is one occasion dur
ing the year when practically all
churchgoers are agreed that it is
fitting and appropriate that melody
should dominate the whole interval
OF worship. This exceptional occa-
sion is, of course, Easter. AS the

Commencement time has come
again, and to the city of Grand Forks
that fact is significant. Within the
next few days there will depart from
the several institutions of higher
learning in this city young men and
women who have been giving over
some of the best years of their life
to the attainment Of knowledge-and
to the degree these institutions are
capable of affording such knowledge,
: they have been successful. Outward
acknowledgment of that fact will be
found in the time honored presenta-
ton of diplomas at the exercises plan
ned.

POPULARIZING THE ARMY.

The suggestion by General Wood
for six months trial enlistments in
the army is likely to attract the at
tention of great many young men
who would never have considered en-
listment for three or five year periods.
This is admittedly the purpose of the
proposal, to popularize the army, to
interest class of persons who here
tofore, if attracted at all, have been
interested only in the commissioned
grades, and to extend the physical
and mental benefits of military train
ing, while at the same time develop
ing a body of citizens whose expert
ence in the service would make them
valuable in emergency.
General Woods belief is that many
high school boys and graduates of
colleges might be induced to enlist
for such period between the time
when their studies end and their life
work is taken up. The experience in
the army would, he thinks, round out
their equipment the physical train
ing, compulsion of regular habits and
submission to discipline at the forma-
tive period tending to make them bet
ter men and citizens. But at the out
set he disabuses them of any idea that
the trial enlistment would be a pic
mic. While he believes that young
sters of high intelligence should be
able to ground themselves in military
practices in six months, he admits
it would be by hard work only. Only
those would be accepted who offered
themselves with the proper spirit and
held out the hope that the seriousness
Of their purpose justified the govern
ment's giving them the opportunity.
At present the suggestion is offered
for public discussion and considera-
ton. 1t it is endorsed an effort will
be made to secure the legislation re-
quired at the regular session of con-
gress next winter. Properly under
taken, it seems to offer many advan-
tages both to the young man indi-
vidually and to the country,

NORTH DAKOTA ADVANCING


"That farm in North Dakota should
raise chickens and eggs and butter
reckoned so good that the best eating
places in st. Paul and other large
{, towns get it in preference to Alinneso-
ia products speaks much for the
change in that state from a wheat
field" says the ST. Paul Pioneer Press
"In the midst of a colony of Holland
ers A. D. S. Johnson of this city is
conducting several farms near Marion,
N. D., as an example Of what can be
done when farming is done on scien-
tific principles. To obtain dairy prod
ucts which are the best on the local
markets the secret of the whole thing
seems to be system The ground is
not plowed and planted to the same
thing it has produced for the past ten
years. Regular rotation is practiced
to put back into the soil those ele-
ments which have been extracted by
other crops. His chickens are fed on
a regular basis, not permitted to get
their living as they can by running
loose over the farm. The COWS are
we'll cared for and of the strain which
produces large quantities of milk.
North Dakota is changing to diver
sitied farming, and nothing better can
be done to put the state faster to the
front as the home of prosperous farm
ers. 1t took Minnesota a number of
years to turn from wheat to dairying,
and all that diversified farming i'm
plies. North Dakota has better eX-
amples, and is following them rather
rapidly. Mr.. johnson has found it
more profitable to raise corn and oats
and barley and turn it into eggs and
chickens and butter than to sell the
. raw product, as it were, from which
the other is obtained. By making the
farm place where all the processes
belonging to farming are carried to
their highest development, any farm
er can usually profit more than by
permitting another to finish the crea-
. ton Of the wealth which should have
been done by him."

THE AMERICAN CARDINAL.

The "Ecce Magnus Sacerdos" rings
true when it greets such a man as
Cardinal Gibbons. His station in his
church is great one; great eccles-
iastical statesman fills and adorns it.
A true Christian withal, no bigot. no
brawler; a gentleman, loyal to his
own, courteous to all, and American
to the marrow Of his bones. He was
already a prince Of the church, as we
remember it, when he said-in Rome
itself-that the title he was proud
est of was American citizen. There
is a tradition that one of the late
Pope Leo's first questions to visitors
from this country was about the
health of that dear Monsignor Glib
bons;" and last weeks jubilarian
seems to have the happy faculty of
inspiring the personal affection which
breathed in that question in all sorts
and conditions of men. He knows
his Baltimore as the present pope in
happier years knew his Venice, and
we are told that the Baltimore truck
men and porters give their good arch
bishop, as he walks by, the same
smile the gondola men gave their
good patriarch. 1t was a happy day
for the Roman Catholic church in this
country when the red hat of the car
dinalate was conferred upon John
McCloskey-a happy and fortunate
day when it was conferred upon
James Gibbons. May the red hat
never be bestowed, on this side Of the
Atlantic, less wisely and worthily!
