CLUB NOTES

How to save coal-It is the doctors duty to find out things for the beneft of humanity and it is then his duty to teach. In these days of coal shortage, life may at times depend upon fuel. How to make one ton of coal do the work of three tons is information that may save life. Try the following in a small way. If it works for you as it has for others, then you can use it exclusively. All I ask in return is that you write and tell me of your success or failure.
 Take: Common salt 1 pound OxaIic acid ounces Water gallon
 Mix these together. Now take a bucketful of the finer coal and mix it with two bucketsful of ashes that are free from clinkers and slate. Mois ten these with the solution and feed the mixture to your fire.
 The chemical change that takes place is simple and gives a. practical explanation of the process. The aquose solution of alkaline salt, mixed with the coal ashes produces a mild lye, which, when mixed with coal and the unbUrned matter in the ashes and sub jected to heat, gives off oxygen gas; this insures rapid combustion while the addition of oxalic acid produces stranger chemical change, resulting in the formation of carbide and acety- lene gas, thus producing an intense heat similar to burning coke. By using practical common sense and good judgment in this experiment, you may save about one-third of your coal bill.

 Poke effects in millinery have left all other styles behind just at present. These are shown in liserie and Japanese straw braids: Many of them do not look like braids at all. Facings of crepe, taffeta or satin in springtime colorings com bined with some slight trimming in the way of fruit or small flowers make the hat for early spring a sim pie but very smart affair.

TRACED TO PAGAN CEREMONY
Christian Anniversary of Easter and
Worship of Goddess of Spring
Have Been Mingled.

1t was through the efforts of the
priests and teachers of the early
Christian church that the Easter sea-
son was shorn of its pagan ceremonies
and converted into a Christian ami
versary. These priests, finding it i'm
possible to induce the German and
Saxon tribes among whom they la
bored to u their worship of the
Goddess of Spring-variously known
as Ostera, Eostre and Eastre-skil-
fully managed to give the ceremonies
another turn, proclaiming that the sea-
son celebrated the rising of Christ from
the dead. Gradually, as the new re-
ligion gained ground, the old heather
superstitions died out. The goddess
Eastre was no longer revered, but her
name was retained to designate what
had now become the festival of the
Resurrection. For the first three CEN
turtles of the Christian era Easter was
celebrated on the same day as the
Jewish Passover, but after much dis
satisfaction had been expressed at this
coincidence of the two feasts the coun-
Gil of Nice devised, in 325 A. D., the
present mode of determining the date
of Easter. This, as every n knows,
provides that it shall fall on the first
Sunday after the full o which &C.

SUNDAY
new YEARS DAY
Originally Marked the Beginning
of the Twelve NOTWITHSTANDING
Festivals in Vogue Long
Before the Time of
Christianity.
BY REV. ARTHUR HOLT.

= ASTER Sunday was formerly
- equivalent to New Years day /;
though not the first day of the
year it was the day on which
the opening of the year was celebrated.
Historically the Christian Easter Is
simply a continuation of the Jewish
Passover, which was celebrated on the
18th day Of the first month of the Jew
ish year-that is, on the day Of the
first full moon next following the day
Of the equinox. 1t has been questioned
whether any special observance of this
day was practiced or enjoined by the
apostles and the early Church Fa-
theirs yet the words of st. Paul II Cor.
5:7-S) seem to sanction if they do not
recommend An observance of some sort
and foreshadow the thought which
came finally to underlie it: "For even
Christ u passover is sacrificed for
us. Therefore let us keep the feast,
not with old leaven, neither with the
leaven of malice and wickedness, but
with the ~unleavened bread of SINGER
ity and truth" According to the jew
1911 lTdulIlOl, lu6 1dSSONeT COlulu6luO-
rated the passing Of the Angel Of
Death over the houses of the Israelites
in Egypt, the doorposts and lintels of
which had been sprinkled with the
blood of the paschal lamb. The Chris
tians, in adopting the festival, gave it
a new significance. For them the Saw
Tor became the true Paschal Lamb, and
the new festival commemorated His
resurrection on the third day following
the C~rucifixion.
The proper day for celebrating East
er was of the questions which the
Council of Nice "a. D. $3.50 was called
upon to decide. By the Eastern Chris
tians it was at that time celebrated on
the same day as the Jewish Passover,
without regard to the day of the week
on which it might fall. Among the
Western Christians, who held that the
crucifiXion occurred on a Friday and
the resurrection on a Sunday, there
had arisen a custom of celebrating
Easter on the first Sunday following
The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1918-03-30

and though I would willingly assent
unto any sympathetic exultation, yet
we cannot conceive therein more than
a tropical ~(fgurative) expression"
Perhaps there is no more striking illus
tration than this of the power of an
inherited belief to live on In spite of
the testimony of all experience against
1t. In some places, apparently as an
alternative for giving up the belief
wholly, it was held that In order to
witness these three leaps n must
look, not at the sun itself, but at the
reflection of it in a pool of clear water.
AS a last resort, to saw the belief, the
sun might be made to dance. Brand
could recall that when he was a boy
he had seer "a vessel full of water set
in the open air, in which the reflected
sun seemed to dance, from the tremu-
lous motion of the water" If the
mountain will not come to Mahomet,
then Mahomet must go to the noun
tain.
Among the customs handed down
through long ages and accepted by the
Church were those of Easter eggs and
the Easter tale which the preacher told
from the pulpit, in lieu Of a sermon,
connecting it with Christian reminis-
cences Later still there were in Ger
many dramatic shows, named Oster-
spiele, executed by twelve performers,
one of whom, apparently, was the
leader, and represented Summer beat
ing Winter out of the land. The dances
and sports prevalent at this season in
Germany among the youths and maid
ems appear sometimes to have been
marked with something of the loose
ness characteristic of the floral games
in Italy.
