Do you know, my friends, the re-
surrectiOn is the very foundation
stone upon which Christianity is
builded, and has endured through
out the ages As the scripture
saith, without He had risen. our
faith would be in vain"
And now journey with me if you
will. through the principal scenes
of his marvellous life, begin at the
beginning; think of his miraculous
conception, and the star of Bethle-
hem, that guided the wise men from
the east, to the place of his nativi-
ty; think of the warning received by
Joseph and Mary, and their fight
into Egypt, thereby saving the life
of the infant Messiah.
Think OF Him grown to maturity,
and going up and down the high
ways, the byways and hedges,
preaching the doctrine of love, of
truth and righteousness, for right
eOusness sake; think of the mira
cles He performed, the turning of
water into wine; the story of the
loaves and fishes; His walking on
the sea; the irony Of his rebuke,
when he said, "Oh We of little faith"
Think of His temptation when he
was taken up into q high mountain
by Satan and offered dominion over
the earth, if he would but worship
him. Think of His firm refusal; !;
think Of his scourging the money
changers and profiteers from the
temple, and then of the agony in
the garden. and the pathos of his
prayer-"Oh my Father, if it is pos.

Then came His betrayal; His
mock trial: His condemnation, and
the agony of the cross. Compare
the brutality of the Roman soldier
in thrusting an iron spear into His
side. the insOlent mOckery OF the
rabble, in placing u crown OF thorns
on His head, and pressing sponge
of vinegar and gall to His lips; to
His own comforting words to dy
ing thief on a nearby cross, This
day thou shalt be with me in para
disc" Then crying out in loud
voice and giving up the ghost, He
was dead; the saddest tragedy ever
enacted on this earth was ended.
Were His dead body still lying
beneath q Syrian sun, his life work.
his teachings and divinity would all
have been in vain; the world would
have scOffed and refused to believe.
But thank heaven he had said
Though you destroy this temple.
in three days it will rise again;
and we know it did BY that one
act He founded the only religion
that satisfies the human heart, and
created the prOfOundest philosophy
the world has ever known.
From what l have read, l think
in the early days of the church, this
festival was celebrated with more
devotion and glory than now. In
those days the roads were deserted
of travellers, the sea of sailors, and
every one attended divine services
arrayed in their best garments.

FOR IT'S ENFORCEMENT
This Is the Contention of Mr.. A. M.
Dicks in Splendid Easter Address
At Holly Baptist Church Last
Sundsy-An Eloquent Appeal.

The following splendid address
was delivered by Mr.. A. NJ. Dicks at
the Easter Sunday services at the
Baptist church last Sunday, and re-
quested by unanimous vote of the
congregation in attendance that it
be ublished.-EditOr's Note.
First, l want to say l have been
delighted with the program. es.
pecially with the singing, as usual
ly am. Do you know Scottish
highlander will take up his bagpipe
and produce from it musical har-
mony that thrills his very soul? An
Italian will tune his violin and pro
duce from it q musical harmony of
such divine sweetness that he too,
Is enraptured and waited upward
on a wave of heavenly bliss
But there is sWeeter, nobler
strain than this: Tis the living
voice of the Sunday school child as
it sings the praise of it's creator:
the living voice of the Sunday
school child as it sings an anthem of
love and reverence for it's crucified
redeemer.
Why is it my friends, that the old
songs, like There Is Fountain
Filled with Blood" Rock of Ages"
Nearer My God to Thee, and many
others that have been sung for an
hundred years or longer, are the
best? Tis because they touch the
heart strings and harmonic, it
seems to me, with the songs the an
gels sing.
This day, Easter Sunday, is the
great festival day of the church
throughout the world; everywhere
our Savior is worshipped, in all
Protestant denominations, and the
Catholic as we'll This is Gala"
day, a spiritual 1Ovefeast, when the
people gather together to rejoice

Opening Of Big League
Season Finds Pitching
Staffs HOpelessly Weak
Ry H G. Hamilton

q UNITED Press staff correspondent
D ts.,orS, York, April asa state Of
"aSk re nearly ideal than has ex-
iste0-. for years seems TO pre-
vail even>.. early stage of guess
ing. but in the same breath let it be
stated that pitching staffs are more
nearly hopeless in the two majro lea
CUES than is the usual wont
Usually opening weeks find this or
that young star having shut out or
no hit games, with columns of acclaim
being handed up for the fan. This year
supporters of the game are finding 1t
hard in many eases TO alibi even the
staunehest of veterans. Last week S
ball games-those which were played
in spite of the frigid weather-were
dotted with base hits. HurleTs proclaim
ed earlier as exhibiting fearsome form,
have been busy dueking their shoots
returned to them by walloping oppo-
nents. Cincinnati for instance has ae-
cumulated forty hits in five contests.
The Cubs, generally looked upon as
the best of the pennant eOntenders be-
cause of their pitching corps, have con
trasted with this list of hits by getting
A in winning only two games.
In the American league things have
been quite as bad, although there have
been spurts of good hurGng.
Scott Perry and Walter johnson, for
instance, battled l3 innings before the
latter was able to take to 0 victory
and the heavy hitting Yankees were
held to four blows and marry run by
Carl Mays in the opening games. The
reason for this are vague but the cause
is that managers are. hmping around
with the best they can scrape together
while waiting for a full return of The
soldier sailors athletes. Drafts and pur'
chases from the minor leagues last year
also were at n minimum and new stars
are lacking.
