Brings Message Of Hope.

Let us each catch a fresh vision OF
thee, O Christ! We each need 1t.
Our upward way has been beset by
fears and many obstacles. Some Of
us need to go with thee to the mount
called Calvary, and there have our
hearts made tender and soft again !;
have the bitterness taken away. Some
of us need to walk out on the road
to Emmaus, till one shall come and
walk with us, and speak to us, till
our hearts shall burn within us, and
we be purged and hearteued to do thy
will. Some need to stand with the
men Of Israel Of old on Mount Olivet.
and gaze after our ascending Lord,
till we hear the angelic voices say,
why stand ye thus gazing? The
same Jesus shall return again, even
as We see him go:s It'll the promise
of our coming Lord shall clear ali
shadows from our lives, and We live
IN the glory that shall be- forgetful
|of the present and its Ills. Whatso
ever our need, mag Il be supplied.

is custom which is said by some to
go back to the eating of cakes in
honor Of Easter, the goddess of light,
among the pagan Saxons; by others
it is traced even further back to a
very ancient Egyptian custom. How
ever that may be, it was enthusiastic
cally embraced by the English peo-
pie. At Chelsea there were two noted
bun houses, each claiming to have
been patronized by the king, to which
the people flocked for miles around on
Good Friday to stand under a sort
of porch or shed and eat Of the IA
nous buns. The custom of eating hot
cross buns on Good Friday has in re-
cent years become almost universal in
this country. In the village of Sussex,
in England, the playing of marbles is
considered Good Friday duty by
young and old, although Just what con-
nection it has with the meaning of the
day is lost in the folklore of the past.

Mourning Friday.

It was not always called Good Fri.
day. Years ago In Germany it waY
frequently referred to as Mourning
Friday. Our early ancestors in Eng,
land did not call 1t Good Friday, either,
but Long Friday. Such Ii the term
in an ancient ecclesiastical law about
1000 years old. The Danes used tho
same name. Long, instead Of Good
Friday.
The reason for using the word
'long" was doubtless found In thh
seeming endless and severe fast prac-
ticed that day. AT one time the Span.
iards emphasized the soiemnity Of
Good Friday by closing all the
churches.
Nowhere else that ] have happened
to be on q Good Friday was the day
so solemnly observed as In Rome. The
city seemed to be In mourning, max.
ing all the more inspiring the match

There was something new and a little

they had struck into n quiet road where
other cars were few he slowed dowr

as though he had been thinking some

smile before she answered.
"Of course" she said. "You--why
you're the very finest boy I've evei

Try as she would, Polly could moi
finish the sentence. But then, She
did not have to, for Matthew'S arm
had stolen about her.

Casters Deep sIanifieance.

Easter is the greatest Of Christian
festivals because its date of celebra
ton and purpose are clearly deter
mined and almost universally accept
ed. Many are aware that Christina
can hardly be the real anniversary 0
the birth of Jesus, for numerous schol
ars hold that he was born in tn
spring, not in December, but non
doubt that the crucifixion took plac
during the passover week, and tina
the resurrection, as chronicled in tn
Gospels, occurred on the third day al
ter his death.
