CASTERS ORIGIN
ANCIENT MISSIONARIES TRANS
FORMED SAXON PAGAN FEAST
INTO A NEW MEANING.

Margaret Sangster. in the Kansas
City Times: With the return or
spring blossoms and birds, a general
feeling of gladness prevails the
world owe However we may have
enjoyed the winter, we bid 1t good
bye without regret, and go merrily
onward to meet the spring. In u
thoughts of winter and In the pic

When the old paganism OF the an
cient Saxons was given up Tor the
worship OF Him whom the people of
Britain in those days called the
White Christ. the missionaries
found established a festival to the
goddess of spring, whose name was
Ostera, a wora signifying ito arise, :
and symbolizing the awakening of
nature after her wintry sleep. This,
in turn, pointed to the old Greek
myth of Persephone, called Proser-
pine by the Romans. The story, fa-
miliar to youthful students as n
OF the dantiest and most poetical of
any in the ancient mythology, was
that while ~Persephone was gather
ing narcissus in a field near Aetna,
In Cicily, the god of the underworld
suddenly emerged from a dark hole

down upon the hapless virgin, car

Demeter, the mother of Perse-

down imploring everybody she met
to tell her what had become OF her
daughter. Finally the all-seeing and
all-hearing god of the sun. from
whom nothing that happened could
ever be kept secret. took pity on the

she, of course, felt more distressed
than before, and begged Zeus and
the other deities to interfere and re-
store the lost one but they declared
themselves unable to do this unless

the mythologies of the world.

tive, In order to show that in the old
pagan religions there was a hint of
that victory of life over death which
is one of the ~grandest articles of the
Christian creed. Persephone's six
months in the regions of darkness
we're emblematic OF death; winter,

poetical way of saying that the tor
por of death had been broken, and
that spring had given life and bloom
to the world once more.
am coming step by step to the
higher meaning which our Easter
has for all who believe in the Lords
resurrection. In winter, you know,
there Is no real death; 1t Is only ap-
parent, for even when at rest, ma
ture is busy, and under the SHOWS
the wheat keeps on growing TO make
the next years bread while the sap
is stirring in the heart Of the trees,
although they are bare and leafless.
The early missionaries, wishing
great happiness to the people whom
they taught to love and serve the
White Christ, I'm contrast with the
dark and cruel gods, to whom they
had hitherto given reverence, desir-
ed them to observe the feast Of the
resurrection. 1t always came around
in the spring, and its name, Easter,
was like that OF the old goddess, re-
christened and made beautiful and
fragrant. In keeping the Easter fes-
tival, again the Christians simply en-

life and venerable feast of the Pass
over, which the Jews had observed
from the date of the Exodus.
Easter is full of brightness and
Joy, not only because of the lower
meaning given it by nature, and van
ishing of the winter death and the
kindling of the springtime life, put
on account of that event, far greater
and most mysterious and sacred, the
rising of u Lord from the three
days bondage in the tomb.
Why does Easter not always occur
on the same date as Christmas does?
Is a question asked by some little
people who have heard their elders
remarking that there will be plenty
OF flowers to dress the churches this
year, Easter coming so late. There
was originally a good deal OF trouble
in deciding on what day 10 observe
the Easter festival, some pleading in
favor of one. and some of another
day, and IL was finally decided, by a
great church council at Nice. A. d.,
325, that Easter should always be
the first Sunday after the full moon,
which happens upon or next after
March 81, and If this full moon hap
pens to be a Sunday, then Easter is
the following Sunday. 1t Is thus,
you see, what we call a movable
feast.
In reality every Lords day, which
was the name given by early Chris
tians to Sunday, is q feast OF the
resurrection, an anniversary on
which we may devoutly say: II be-
lieve in the life everlasting"
The most beautiful Easter way"
that / know about is that which
sends flowers to the sick and sorrow
full on the morning of Easter Sun
day.

ParoIed Prisoner from south Dako
Ia Found In Oklahoma.

Sioux Falls, April III. - Leonard
Schaeger, b~ookkeeper at the peniten-
tiary, has gone to Oklahoma for the
purpose of bringing back a paroled
prisoner from the Sioux Falls peni-
Tertiary who broke his parole by
crossing the state line. The man is
William Bayne, and he raj sent to
the penitentiary from Hanson county
to serve a period of five years for
robbery. When he had served some
thing over half of his term he APP
piled for a pardon and as he had been
a model prisoner his application for
a parole was granted. Among the
conditions of the parole is one that
the paroled man must remain in the
state OF South Dakota and another
that he must report to the warden of
the p~enitentiary every so often.
Bayne turned up missing some
months ago and the officers have
been on the lookout for him since.
He was finally located at his old
home in Oklahoma and Mr.. Schaeger
armed with requisition papers made
a trip to the southern state to bring
the man back. However, the papers
were not to the liking of the Okla
homa officials and Mr. Schaeger was
sent back for another interview with
Governor Bryne who fixed the pa
pers to comply with the require
ments Of Oklahoma.
1t is claimed that Bayne is not
only a bad man but that he has a
number of relatives and friends who
are classed in that category and II is
believed that Mr.. Schaeger will have
a lively experience before he gets his
man out or Oklahoma.

there is just one thing I would like
to call attention to. The shippers all
give the government the business
when the postal rates are lower. but
i believe there are some instances
where the parcel post and express
rates being equal, the old companies
are given the preference. The gov
eminent should have at least an
equal break under all such circum-
stances. The more business that is
entrusted to the postal service, the
quicker will it equip itself to meet
the requirements, and the more expe-
rience the department has in adjust
ing itself to conditions comparatively
new, the more efficient will it become
in handling the parcel post end of it"
