The Risen Christ's Easter Message

The message of Easter is Identical with the
truth that each Lords day proclaims to men
the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The central
thought of the apostles minis ry was the
resurrection OF their Lord and Saviour. 1t has
been the dominant theme Of every gospel mes
sage. The risen Christ's first communication
was sent to his discouraged disciples that they
might rejoice because he was risen from the
dead.
Does Easter find you discouraged? Have
you made a bad investment of your life and
labor? Are you disturbed as to the futuref
Has death terror for you? Then let us rejoice,
for Christ has victory for Let US
give thanks because he is risen. His resurrec-
ton contains the promise of our endless life.
1t is also prophetic of the Christians resurrec-
ton when Jesus shall come again. The hopes
of eternal life should inspire with dynamic
force by which can through the presence
and power of our risen Lord, rise above the
difficulties, discouragements and defeats Of this
present age His resurrection has solved our
problem. removed sin and burdens that have
filled with despair and turned our apparent
defeats into one glorious triumph. The gospel
of the resurrection proclaims victory of re-
generation over degeneration, of construction
reformation, OF life over death. that
Christ has secured for every creature that will
believe on him as their risen Saviour.
To the disciple that denied him early on
Easter morn Christ sent a message that re-
called Peter to his service Have you been
following Christ afar on? Has your life been
marred by sinf Have you denied your Lord?
return to your Lord and then you will rejoice
that he is risen and be will restore unto you
the Joy of your salvation.
The last message that the Master gave to
his disciples was delivered near Bethany. while
they were still in sight Of the capital city of

MASTER put ner pride in her new hnery can
usually be relied upon to help her combat the
icy winds.
A movement was started some years ago to
induce the women of the United States to unite
In robbing Easter Sunday of its Significance as
Held day" for the new fashions According
to the new mandate 1t was not to be consid-
cred good form" for woman to appear on
Easter resplendent in fresh additions to her
wardrobe. She might display her new treas
ures-for, of what would nice clothes be
to woman If she could not show them-on
the Sunday preceding Easter on the Sunday
following Easter or at any other time but the
custom was to be decried of turning Easter in
TO grand review for marshaling the newest
products Of the dressmakers. the bootmakers
and the milliners.
The new plan was all very well in theory,
but the persons who suggested 1t evidently did
not figure on the persistency with which the
daughters of the republic cling to a cher
lished prerogative The American women SIM
ply declined to abandon their Easter fashion
parade and consequently the seasons surprises
In new raiment continue to be as indispensable
lad1uncts to regulation Easter observance as
are the Easter lilies and the Easter eggs The
credit for the preservation OF the traditions of
the Easter fashion parade is given to the
women because 1t Is the members OF the fair
sex who both spectators and participants
ARE the most numerous and most enthusiastic
supporters of the function. At the same time
1t would be idle to insinuate that many of the
opposite sex have not succumbed to the infiu-
lence of the Easter dress parade. Among the
male contingent there Is brave representa-
ton of spring overcoats and spring SUITS that
make their appearance for the first tfme but
the one preeminent touch which proclaims the
occasion is the array Of collars and ties
Some men there may be. who. because OF
prejudice or pocketbook. will not indulge them
selves in the new conceits OF the tafors on
Easter. but there none who need forego
the indispensable Of q novelty in neckwear.
As has been said, fashions parade on Easter
marches up and down the entire land There
are some famous Easter fashion parades in the
United States. notably the one Fifth ave
nue., New York. and the one on the Boardwalk
az Atlantic City. but there is city or
town or village from Maine to California or
from Michigan to Texas that does not enjoy its
own Easter panorama particularly If the COM
munty is not so small that there are no church
services to act an incentive to draw forth
the birds Of plumage. And just here, 1t may
be noted In wonder, that such is the perfection
Of our modern system OF fashion distribution
that the Easter parade In the most remote
town affords proof that her feminine residents
are little behind New York and even Paris in
the main essentials Of the new styles"
While on this phase of the subject It may
be remarked that very few OF the fashionable
paraders in the Easter throngs realize how far
reaching have been the preparations for this

Fred Beel Will Arrive Here
This Morning for Champ Match
ByCondo

Tonight at Moose hall will be
staged what promises to be one or
the wrestling treats of the season
when Fred Beell will defend his
title against Frank Riley, the Ta-
coma champion. Beell, the husky
Wisconsin man, who bears the dis
tinction of being the only man
who ever threw Frank Gotch
since the latter has been cham
pion, arrived In town today. He
Is looking fine and says he ex-
poets little trouble disposing of
Riley. The Tacoma champion de-
clares Beell will have to work
harder than when he threw Chef
Mcintyre, which took hour ana
B minutes.
The program Is complete. There
will be iiu jitsu match as a cur
tain-raiser and two good wrestling
matches between welter and ban
tamweights. OF course the Beell-
Riley match will be the big event
and hundreds of fans are prepar-
ing to witness one of the best
matches ever held in the city.
Rollo Branch, a well known
real estate man of Tacoma, is an
old friend of Fred Beell, the two
having worked out together many
times In Marshfield, Wis. where
the little champion has his home.
He has not seen Riley work out,
but says he will have to work to
make q showing against the
champion. He declares that in
stead of Beell losing form or
strength that each year has added
TO his science and good condition.
and that he is more fit than ever.
Riley and Tisch, the U. p. 8.
heavyweight, have been working
out daily and the Tacoma man Is
in fine fettle for the bout. He ex-
poets to get at least one fall from
Beell. Fans consider that II he
could gain one fall 1t would make
the classiest match ever pulled off.
