EASTER PLANTS.

A little plant is an Easter ser
mon.
1t breaches more elOquently
than many men.
The life story of the plant is
the life story of man.
Endurance and patience are
seen in the struggling seed.
Buried in the black earth. it
patiently endures until the time
of birth.
The struggle of the plant
pushing it's way from darkness
to light is well rewarded.
In the sunlight and air of the

higher growth and development.
The beauty of the blossom Is
