How many male and female ances-

that you should have a father and

father and mother That makes four

must have had father and mother,

Can burning hearts keep back the
message? These disciples were filled
with Joy. Possibly they did not wait

worth while to take time on the first
day Of his resurrection to walk seven
miles into the country with two sor-
row-stricken disciples.

heart Is with us yet. The evangel OF

ness and despair, no hope OF heaven.
Paul lays great emphasis upon these
vital things in | Corinthians 15:12-19.
1t is significant that after his resur-
rection, Jesus appeared only TO his
disciples; and Of these, first to those
who needed him most. There is deep
meaning in the very order Of the re-
corded appearances after his resurrec.
tion. First to Mary, probably the
most heart broken OF all the little
band; then TO Peter, who had denied
him, and since then had been weeping
bitter tears of repentance; then 10 the

Emmaus who were saving. I'VE

have redeemed Israel"
On the Emmaus Road.
Let us consider this story of the
first Easter Sunday evening. There
is a peculiar charm in it, and the very
simplicity wins our hearts. How real
istic il is, how true to life, how pa
thetic in it's exhibition of mutual sor-
row and the concern Of a friend who
knows all about us, though we may
not know who he is; how encourag-
ing to hearts respondent and sad. One
can picture the scene, without Difficult
ty. 1t had been a day of great excite
ment in Jerusalem; there were many
conflicting reports about Jesus, who
had been away In the tomb, few days
before; some gave account of strange
things they had seen and heard, but
grave doubt still possessed many Of
the disciples; and now these two are
on their homeward way, sorrowful as
they go, under the shadow of great
perplexing mystery. Perhaps light and
comfort will come in the quiet and
rest of home.
AS they journeyed a stranger Joined
them, inquiring the cause of their sor-
row, and learning what he knew, their
perplexity about what had happened
that day. IL was not strange that they
did not know him. To Abraham he
came as a wayfaring man, to Joshua
as a soldier, to Jacob as a wrestler, TO
Mary as a gardener; besides their eyes
were holden. But, meeting their per
plexity and doubt, with a precious un-
solding of the Scriptures, beginning
at Moses and all the prophets, he ex.
pounded unto them in all the Scrip
lures the things concerning himself. >
| Four blessings came to these sorrow
! ing travellers from their unknown com
panion-their minds were opened
| their hearts burned within them, their
eyes were opened. and he revealed
himself as set forth in all the Scrip
1 lures.

The Elks and Knights of Pythias
kept open house last night to watch
the old year out and the new year in,
and when the hour of midnight arriv-

broke loose simultaneously in all
parts of the city. At the Knights of

dulged in an informal dance and so
well was the function enjoyed that
the dancers remained long after mid
night. To-day the streets Of the city
present a deserted appearance, the
banks, all city and county Offices are
closed, and the employees as a rule
are out in the fields with dog and
gun, but those who remained in the

that tor the past six weeks the roads

reau this morning asking him If the
music lovers of this city would like
TO hear the great tenor, Evan VIII

cert and Oratorio has no superior in
the world today, he is a disciple of

No singer of today has done more
to preserve the lofty Handelian style
than Evan Williams, whenever he is
announced for a part in the Mes
siah," music lovers who know of his
wonderful work are delighted and he
easily outranks all other artists in
that particular oratorlo.
