WHEN WE REACH THERE

See the golden roses there,
Resembling the crown she wears;
And bouquet of lilies too,
An emblem of her love for YOU
But as linger at her tomb,
l can't but think Deaths cruel
To rob of the priceless jewel,
That always dispelled our gloom
And made night look like noon
But as I mourn alls forlorn;
And Death mocks and scorns
And seems to think she was born
For Him to fondle in his arms
Oh. Death, she Is your prey,
And smouldering now in silent clay
But not through all eternity;
For on the eternal morn
The frail form,
That we have worshiped through the storm.
Shall rise in triumph over thee
And mock the palace you call your see;
For 1t can never be,
That Death will reign eternally,
Then we'll ever walk with her.
The blissfui streets over there.
And never mourn or despair
That we'll be severed when we reach there:
But fondie love and cherish there,
Affection warm when we were here.
For when this corruptible
Shall have put on interruption
And this mortal shall have put on
Immortality. then shall be brought to pass.

u pute the historical accuracy Of the
story of the empty tomb-of Mary, her
soul aflame with the doctrine of new
life-is to relegate to mythology the wars
Of Napoleon and to declare that Caesar
never lived
The atheistic mind is fond Of cuddling in
its shallow corners the threadbare recital
that the body of Jesus was borne away by
His disciples, as related by the Roman
soldiers who had been left to guard
the tomb. Could those unarmed fearful
followers Of the Savior have so defied the
power of mighty ruler? And if, as
claimed the body was removed while the +!
soldiers slept how did they know who took
it?
Falsity is branded deeply on all such YER
sions, the superficiality of which is only
exceeded by the premeditated attempt to
disturb the faith of man in Immortality.
Of course, there is miracle in the as
cension of Christ after his poor body had
been nailed to the cross of a cowardly
| judgment and pierced by the spears of a
blind hatred. But all life is a miracle in
the hands of the Omnipotent. What

vive the cold clay of His Son. sent into the
world to win it from the grasp of evil and
lead it to the higher standards we of today
observe, although the closing chapters Of
redemption are still deep in the slowly I'M
winding scroll of the ages
The facts of Christ's life and death and
ascension are as well established as any
. historical statements ever recorded, and
today the story of the resurrection is
precious belief in the minds of an ever-in-
creasing army of Christians-a countless
| host moving onward to eternity with the
noblest faith that was ever bequeathed to
human thought, revolutionized and en-
riched by moral philosophy, the sublim-
' ity and truthfulness of which are attested
by it's successful challenge to the tempests
that for centuries have ragged around the
. Gibraltar of Christianity.
A thought that must occur to many as
they contemplate the significance of .
Easter revolves around any disposition to
destroy that faith.
What satisfaction may any man gain
from SCATTERING the confidence of the
mother who reads the Bible to the child
at her knee or from disrupting her trust in
life hereafter?
Perhaps no stronger proof is needed of
the correctness of the Bible story of the
risen Christ than the failure of such agen-
cies to move mankind to blot out the rad
lance OF an empty tomb and visualize only
the darkness and despair Of Calvary
If their philosophy were true and sound
undoubtedly it's adherents would multiply;
but it fallacy is so unmistakable, rejection
is all but universal. To accept it means
