sionaries persuaded the saxons to ac-
cept the feast Of the paschal lamb and
simply change the name to that Of the
feast Of Ostara, which later was angli-
cized to Easter.
The Easter egg also had its origin
among non-Christians. The people of
northern Europe hunted eggs in the
springtime. believing that 1t was good
luck to find them and eat them. OF
course wild birds laid eggs only in the
spring Of the year. The Christian
missionaries to our ancestors saw an
opportunity to win men to a belief in
Christianity by adopting the egg-hunt-
ing day and combining 1t with Easter
The egg was shown to typify life. As

hair and her ivory skin and scarlet
lips made her q conspicuous beauty
anywhere. Added to this, her unique
taste in dress made her more than at
tractive.
Perhaps 1t was her continental man
ner, perhaps merely her natural diff.
dence, that made her difficult Of ap.
proach. But she was admired by ev-
eryone who came in contact with her,
and In the choir where she sang she
had many friends even though she did
not perhaps realize 1t.
Choir rehearsals for Easter music
made her attendance necessary, and
she found herself hurryiny from her
studio to the church without taking
proper time to eat nourishing meals.
Raymonde was very conscientious and
she did not want to neglect either her
painting or her choir work.
It was the week before Palm Sum
day and Easter day that found the
little French girl nearly exhausted. A
boat had arrived bringing her letters
and papers from her home in the SUBJ
urbs Of Paris. She picked up her
mail and went to church for a rehear-
sal without SO much as getting a bite
of dinner. She feared being late and
conspicuous in entering the choir
stalls.
Instead of being late, Raymonde
found herself there before any of the
others. and she was glad of few quiet
moments in which to read her mail
She looked at her home letters, and
then opened up a newspaper from the
suburb in which she lived. Her face
suddenly became as set as the face Of
an ivory image-she had seen her
brothers name among the list of SOL

their regiments.

came upon her in the dimly lighted
church.

OBSERVANCE OF
EASTER SUNDAY

TIME observance of Easter Sun
day dates back to the founding
of the early Christian church
in commemoration of the resur
rection Of Jesus. 1t is generally be.
Heved by all Christians that Jesus was
orucif1ed on Friday and buried. The
following Sunday certain women OF
Judea went to the tomb early in the
morning to anoint his body.
Saturday was the Sabbath day Of the
Jews. That accounts for the delayed
visit to the tomb. Jesus was buried so
late Friday the women did not have
time to anoint his body. AS soon as
day dawned that Sunday morning the
women went to the tomb, and. accord
ing to sacred accounts, found Christ
had gone.
The stone which sealed the mouth Of
the tomb was rolled away. At first
they were filled with grief, believing
his body was stolen. Then they re-
membered the words of their Master.
that he would rise from the tomb the
third day. His temperance and as
surance that all could conquer the
grave was the cause of great rejoicing.
From the time of the fight Of the
children of Israel from Egypt, the
Jews had observed the Passover to
commemorate the night when the an
gel of death passed over the houses Of
the Hebrews and slew the flrst-born
in the houses of the Egyptians. The
feast Of the Passover was being OBJ
served by the citizens Of Jerusalem at
the time OF the crucifxion. The fol-
lowers OF Christ continued to observe
the feast of the Passover, but the OBJ
servance took on a new meaning.
The exact time Of the feast was not
settled until the council Of Nice, called
by Emperor Constantine Of Rome in
the year 1926. It was then decided that
the feast should be observed the first
Sunday after the first full moon after
the spring equinox. The only great
astronomical observatory in the world
at that time was at Alexandria, Egypt.
It was left to the astronomers there to
determine when Easter should come.
The early Christians did not know
the feast by the name of Easter. The
name is of Saxon origin and came
, from the feast of the paschal lamb of
the early Christian church with the
feast of the coming Of spring Of the
Saxons.
Ostara, the goddess of spring Of the
Saxons, was worshiped in England and
Germany before the first missionaries
to the north Of Europe brought the
story of Christ. The Saxons, in &C
cepting Christianity, continued to OBJ
serve their old feasts Just as the Jew
ish Christians continued to observe
the feast of the Passover. The mis-
