THE PALACE OF THE
GOLDEN PATH

A fair young princess lived in a
beautiful palace. The palace had a
high wall around 1t. A golden path
ran to the gate. From the window
in the palace the princess could sea
any one who passed over this fine
path.
Three princes wished to marry tho
beautiful princess. Each went to the
palace to try to win her. When the
first prince reached the golden path
he would not ride over 1t. lie founu
another path and rode over that.
The princess saw him leave the gold
en- path and ride over another. Then
she said. He Is thinking more OF
the gold than of me-" and she had
him sent away.
The second prince came to the
golden path. He would not ride over
the gold. either. He left his horse
and walked to the gate. The princess
saw this and said, HE. too. thinks
more of the gold than of me-" ana
she had him sent away. The tnird
prince came. He was thinking only
of the beautiful princess. lie DID
not see the gold ON the path. He
rode over the golden path, through
the gate, and straight to the castle.
when the princess saw this she was
glad. She said. He loves me more
than gold. When he thinks or ma
he cannot see the gold" The prin.
cess loved him and married him. and
they became the King and Queen OF
the Palace Of the Golden Path.

AN EASTER HUNT.

1t was going to be Easter Monday
nd every little girl knew where
hey were soing to have a good time,
hree days before Easter. at school,
I'll the little girls were talking about
t. Three prizes were offered TO
hose who found the most eggs. The
,irst prize was gold watch; second
prize was a silver pocketbook, and
the third prize was one dollar. Ev-
erybody was invited to come to hunt
eggs. Monday was a beautiful day,
pretty as the eggs some said. The
hunt was in the woods. and every
body came early. They brought their
lunch along. so they could stay all
day. When . o'clock came every
girl in the country was hunting eggs.
And, oh. what a time they had. Soma
of the prettiest eggs you have ever
seen were hidden in the trees.
bushes, leaves and almost every
where.
Mary Ryan won the first prize;
Rosa Blake the second. and Bessie
Jensen the third. and they were three
little happy girls that went home.
That evening they played all sorts of
games. such as base hide and sock.
bear. ball. dropping the handkerchief
and many others. That night every
body went home happy and tired.

Easter is the day On which we
celebrate the resurrection OF Jesus
Christ. 1t comes once every year
and lasts one day. On this day many
years ago the most wonderful event
this world has ever yet witnessed
came to lass, namely. the resurrec-
tionSof Christ He had lain in the
tomb three days and nights. Early
In the ,aorning of the first day OF
the week Mary Magdalene and an
other Mary went to the tomb of
their Lord expecting to find Him
there. But In his stead. seated
nearby, they beheld an angel cloth
ed In white raiment and his eyes were
like lightning. He told them that
Jesus had risen. The women wers
oyer1oyed TO hear the good news,
They told the disciples and other
people whom they met. Jesus had
really arisen. was seen later py
Mary Magdalene and the disciples.
1t CHANGED that two of the disci-
pies had been to a city which was not
far from their home. and as they were
returning they were overtaken by a
stranger. who said that he was go
ing the same way that they were,
accompany them. AS they talked
this stranger expounded the scrip
lures to them. Now. the unknown
man was Jesus. but he had disguised
himself SO that his disciples did not
recognize him. When they reached
their destination they asked Jesus to
spend the night with them. He 40
cepted the invitation. AS they sat at
the supper table Jesus took the
bread and broke 1t and blessed It.
and then mysteriously disappeared.
Then they knew Him and doubted
not.
Even the flowers seem to pro-
claim the glad tidings, for without
their loving assistance Easter would
not seem half SO dear to us. We
decorate the churches and school
rooms for this happy occasion with
vioiets. prlmroses jonouils and many
other flowers. The birds, TOO. sing
very sweetly about Eastertide. but
do not know whether they realize
the joyous time or not. Easter Is Z
very happy time for everybody.

WHAT WE PLAYED EASTER.

Mary, Ethel May Bessie and
Bernice came to- gee me Easter and
OH my, what q time we had / had
saved all the eggs l could find. and
painted them In pretty colors and
some Of the other girls brought along
some eggs. too We played in tho
front yard hid all the eggs my
self first and Ethel found the most,
and then she hid them. While she
was hiding them we went Into the
dining room and got some crackers
and candy tn eat. We then hid the
eggs again and again, We all agreed
tina: we never had had such good
time before. When 1t was time 10
go home I told all the girls good-hye
and to come again real soon'
