= How different that first humble Easter parade from the Easter parade

To tina first Easter parade I'M MARY Magdalsne. md Joanna. and

women whose garments showed the stains of toll. and whose work-worn

Stand on tn sreet-corner this Sunday morning and bear that first lowly
parade in mind, while before your yes pas the glitter Of rainbow fnery

glossy varnish If automobiles
How many women. think you, stayed home from that first parade be-

Rabbits and Easter-eggs n candy an bonnets! Oratory and formal

How ca the mind be free to dwell upon the world meaning of Easter Day

WHAT Is COLOR?


Why are Bolshivih known - Reds7 Why

British scientist explains.
Red, the danger color, represents mental ex-
element and unrest It Is the symbol Of action
of turmoil.
Jules Guerin, color expert Of the San Fran

the mind. DR.. L. e. Landon went further
discovered that red wallpaper produced nervous
ness, bad temper and headache.

What is your favorite colorr--an important
question, for your taste in colors reveals your

Green rests the eyes; we use it for eyeshades.
Nature employs it extravagantly-in grass,

People fond Of violet or purple incline to be

Yellow makes US calm. satisfied, sluggish.
Red excites action, makes one emotional.
Scientists even claim that red undershirt in-
creases worl1man's energy.

APPROVES TRIAL COURT.

APPROVES TRIAL COURT.
There is one man, sovereign who stands OUT
side the peace conference and who thinks Bill
Hohenzoalern ought to be dragged into an inter-
national criminal court and tried and punished
for his misdeeds.
This sovereign is the Prince of Monaco. Here's
what he says:
Bringing the ex-kaiser to trial before an in
ternational tribunal is the solution conscience
demands Though others may decide whether
it is polite and timely. Since attempts against
individuals are punished. why should this fright
full crime against humanity remain unpunished p
The Prince Of Monaco was once q personal
friend of the then kaiser. He severed that
friendship in 1914, sent back to the kaiser all
the high German orders that had been conferred
upon him, and last year published book, Ger
many and Universal Conscience" 1t was pow
erful indictment Of German imperial criminality
and created q sensation.
