half of one The head of the house divides the
egg, gives half to the caller, and eats with him
the other part. The custom has such a hold on
the people that the mobiles, when living far
away from the fatherland observe it. Many
years ago Prince Czartoryski in residence in
Paris when he held the usual reception Caster
Monday, receiving each guest the door of his
salon. and dividing the egg in traditional style
with each visitor, who ate 1t conscientiously.
In America, with its population drawn from all
sections of the globe, many Easter observances
distinctive of the various countries have been re-
tanned by the immigrants and their descendants.
So decidedly has Easter Sunday come to be
thought of in the United States the great show
day of the year that the average person no longer
regards it in its most inspiring light-the crown
ing feast day Of the Christian year. Yet its re-
ligious sgnfcance still lives and while the
uous money seekers OF the present day to
have lost sight OF any save its worldly interest
the spirit oil worship is by no means a thing Of
the past and nowhere is it actively alive
than in the up-todate church of a great city
Music is the chief feature of the usual service,
and pains or money is spared to make 1t
noteworthy event
Easter egg rolling the White House grounds
in Washington has become affair of interna
tional note. The children gather in crowds out
side the tall iron fence that incoses the grounds
and when the gates thrown open at exactly
9 they flock in pell-mell and distribute
themselves in squads the hillocks. No time
is lost, the sport beginning at once, and 1t
is in fast and furious progress. the greensward
speckled with eggs and rainbow hues All the
children their best clothes which are
destined to be sadly mussed and more or less
torn before the day is over, yet thoroughly
democratic spirit prevails the youngsters being
of all classes
Fo the eye OF the casual observer the egg play
is somewhat devoid of meaning but study Of II
shows that 1t is both varied and interesting
Some of the children make races with their eggs
starting them simultaneously from the top of a
hilock, with the understanding that the one to
reach the bottom first is the winner II 1t is "for
fair" the egg of the loser passes into the pos
session OF the successful contestant. Another
way is to roll an egg down hill, to be received
at the bottom on the point Of a second egg If the
thing is properly DONE and failure or success in
this object gives rise to much merrment Or.
again, two children may roll their eggs toward
each other on "a fiat piece Of ground and when
they have met the one cracked is lost.
