PEACE THAT Ab|OES
Comforting to All Sad Hearts Is the Glorious Message of the ts,.sa ..' .I Easter Time.
A/ HAT strange and wonder.

]" ful uplift is experienced by [ . those who observe in true spirit the day which commentaries the resurrection of Christ. Into their souls there is waited something of the sweetness of the winds of heaven. Into their hearts flows the peace which the world. cannot give. The very comfort of God. is theirs. .,. .. uz. The Easter message speaks of vic tory. The grim foe that has terrified men in all ages has been conquered. Jesus has triumphed over death and his victory is ours. His foot is on the skull'' of death. There is no place tor mournful music in the resurrec- tion anthem.
 The Gospel of Easter day is marvel ously comforting. There are multi tudes of sad hearts in the world. How Jew are the homes that have not felt pne iDHghting touch of bereavement. HOW HOW few across whose thresholds the sollnp1er-robed messenger has not en- tered. To all who sorrow the Master speaks in, great tenderness: q am the resurrection and the life; he that oeleveth in me, though he die, yet shall he live.' #..;se. p.:l1 E.!r

New York Central Shows
Large Equipment Orders

New York, Oct. 27.-A. statement of
the very large purchases. since the
war began. of train equipment for
the use of the New York Central
Lines. was made here to-day on au-
thorization of Alfred II. Smith. pres
ident of the big railroad system.
The facts given out, which include
prices and comprise the aggregate of
vast transactions. form perhaps the
most comprehensive basis for judg-
ment and comparison recently dis
closed. and are most significant in
connection with various phases of
present railroad conditions.
Summary of the grand totals of
the tabular statement shows that the
New York Central system purchased
during the three years and two
months since the war began august
1910 locomotives, freight cars and
passenger coaches costing sS4.324.735.
These same units at present-day
prices would cost the companies
S193.025. .610-just 0S,703.S74 more
money. or an increase in the aggre-
gate of 1891 per cent!
This this railroad system by
prompt. heavy buying when war
broke out. and in early preparation
against the present existing dire
&C combination of extraordinary de-
mands for freight srvice. high prices
and shortage of materials and labor,
gained an equity of a cool 100000, 900
based on present values.
