GREAT TRUTH MADE MANIFEST
Little Group of Followers of the
Master First Had True concep-
tion of Immortality.

In the mournful quiet Of Easter even
the whole world lay well hushed I'M
der the half hope, half sorrow long
ago. No happy preparations stirred
the little group of friends and believ-
ers; all the busy ways were for the
enemies who made ready for their
feast with much outward show Of cere-
monial.
Under the despair that overhung the
little outcast band lay the half con-
scious, scarcely daring hope. like a
muff1ed dream. They had seen the
dead grain sink into the ground and
now waited for the coming forth Of
the fruit. Living so long close to the
presence of the Master, it vas not
strange that they could abide apart,
still under it's influence, in INDIGESTION
ing simplicity expecting the fulfllment
of his words: Except the grain fall
into the earth and die 1t cannot bring
forth fruit"
When the still, mournful ven was
over, and the earliest breaking Of day
showed them the empty husk of the
tomb, the great truth of the fruit
brought forth surged over them. One
by one, breathlessly, each broke into a
musical utterance of faith and joy
from clear hearts that accepted. The
olden knowledge of the death of the
grain, so long familiar to them as a
process of nature, they had witnessed
now as applied to the spirit.

POSTERS HELP
TO SELL BONDS
Work Of Famous Artists Con-
tributed For Campaign.
EXPRESS PATRIOTIC IDEALS
Nine Million Copies Printed For Dis
tribution All Over the Nation.

Nine million copies of posters by
famous artists have been printed by
the government for distribution in
all parts of its possessions in the in
teret of the third Liberty Loan. Any
one of the drawings would be worth
hundreds of dollars, but the artists
gave their work without charge.
Halt the Hum" is the title of one
of the strongest of the posters. 1t
was drawn by Henry Raleigh. 1t
shows an American soldier forcing
back a brutal figure wearing an iron
cross, at whose feet lies a woman
clutching a child.
Howard Chandler Christy has con-
tributed a design of the m~odernized
spirit of Victory bearing an Ameri-
can flag and challenging the patriot
ism of the country for support of the
advancing columns of American sol
diers.
A poster which will appeal especi-
ally to the residents Of agricultural
districts is one which depicts a stur-
dy farmer bidding farewell to his son
as he leaves for the front. The word.
ing reads: Good bye, Dad! I'm off
to fight for Old Glory-You buy Unit
ed States Government Bonds!"
OF particular appeal to foreign-born
Americans is the poster which shows
the arrival Of the immigrant and his
family in Free America, and which re.
minds these adopted citizens to Re
member the Flag of Liberty Support

Legends of the Cross.

The "wood of the cross" it is most
often said, was made from the olive
tree, chosen, according to some legends,
by the hand of our Savior Himself. The
rale color of the olive leaves is be-
cause they still reflect the glory that
.shone on them when He was transfig-
ured on Olivet. Some hold that it was
the poplar from which our Lord was
compelled to fashion His cross, and
that is why it has ceased to
tremble because 1t had a part of His
suffering. To this day many French
Canadians refuse to cut ''popple."
Other legends say the poplar was Ju-
das' hanging tree.

"Wrangle Ev'ry Time They'd Meet"
An asst: "Say, pa, was chickens made
Before the firstest eggs was iaid?"
An Doc, who swore by Natur's laws,
Replied: "My son, of course they was"
Then Joel Tabor says, says 'e:
al guess y'u've got the thing re.
versed.
How could the chickens come to be
If eggs was not invented first7"
That sot 'em goin' IN fer years
Them two was alIus by the ears;
They'd wraneIe ev'ry time they'd meet.
An neither never knowed defeat
When Joel argyed "Primai Cause"
An proved it by the dictionary,
The Doc came back with "Natur's
laws"
An showed that eggs was secondary.
Fer thirty years they jawed an fit,
But neither got the best of it.
An now that both are dead, bet
They're holly argyin' of it yet.

have the same origin, speak TIE same
Language. inhabit the same contiguous
countries, have the same customs and,
above all, entertain the same national
aspirations, thus forming one nation
designated by a common name

The Jugoslavs came during the sixth
end seventh centuries from trans
