Is why 1t seems so hard for many Of
us to find peace. To realize the unity
of the personal will and the cosmic
love 1t is first necessary to. rid one
self of arrogance, pride, conceit and
every selfish desire that is RESPONSE
bile for that sense Of separateness that
causes all confusion. To bring about
the "atonement" the self must become
subordinate to the one Master of life.
In time, we are told. "every knee shall
bow and every tongue confess that /
am God" for mo flesh shall glory In
His presence"
1t is good to hope for the resurrec-
tion of the body; 1t Is better to be-
lieve In the final redemption of the
soul and to see. with eyes of faith,
the far-off heaven of promise; but
infinitely better still is It to realize
here and now that the soul has awak-
ened from it's sleep. that regeneration
is already accomplished and that
Christ 'the Resurrection and the
Life" has come into the soul to- live
forever. e,

and Happy Laughter.

On Easter Sunday the most delight
full spot in the world is Venice. Here,
as I'm Rome. however, to enter into
the spirit of things, you must rise be-
fore the lark and make your way to
the plaza of st. Mark, the very heart
Of Venice, where from morning until
night congregate all the wealth and
fashion of the canal city.
If you can win your way into st.
Marks yon are very fortunate, for en-
tire Venice is bent on reaching there
before You. You must needs be car.
ricd there in gondola, which on this
festive occasion is enchantingly pic
turesque IN it's floral decorations.
AS you drift lazily along toward your
goal propelled by the gentle padding
of the gondolier, who is clad In his
giaddest rags in honor of the day.
Easter hymns peal out across the way
ing waters, and the whole setting Is
replete with music and happy laugh
ter Along the shore f0wer-covered
shrlnes greet your vision; indeed fiow-
ers are everywhere in magnificent pro-
fusion of color and bloom.

CASTERS SYMBOL A
GLORIOUS. PROMISE
"He That BeIieveth on Me,
Though He Were Dead, Yet
Shall He Live"

ON .sssdNA The glad world greets
lzM sSsXTX the day long celebrated
,Yk%ST0@ as the anniversary. of
VEEs$% the resurrection of the
ASWsPGM Son of God.
EY%kVSSSV Nineteen centuries ago
ESA1STM He came to earth wear
&adaSafsx.--&y ing a garment of flesh,
but He knew His body
for the temple of God; and although
foolish men, who knew not what they
did, attempted to destroy that temple,
the Christ that dwelt within those
sacred walls made death His slave,
walked calmly from his tomb and
COMPOUNDED materialism with his ra-
diant presence. Demonstrating the
power Of the soul over every mega
tive force, He glorified flesh with a
baptism of heavenly fire. proved the
unity of the natural and the spirit
ual, and so became for all mankind
''the way, the truth, the life" HI
had the right to say-as any man
may declare when he has walked
The Way-I and my Father ARE
one"
There are those who declare, that
this resurrection of Him who was
the first fruits of them that slept" is
only a myth and symbol of the
possible. His rising was indeed a
symbol and promise, but it was
more than that; 1t was and Is both
a natural fact and a spiritual truth
for He rises daily in nature and In
the soul of man. His glory shines
from every rising sun and, when the
day is ended, his peace comes to man
in the calm of sleep the while He
smiles from all the glowing stars
"The dark and the light are both
alike to Him." The Resurrection
was a promise to those who were,
and who are, dead In spirit, for 'He
that believeth on me. though he were
dead, yet shall he live" His resur-
rection was a corroboration of the
truth realized to great extent by
those already awakened, for HE
that believeth on me and liveth shall
never die"
Example Of Nature.
AS fact in nature-and certainly
the resurrection Of our Lord was no
example of the eversal Of the order
of nature-Christ's victory over the
grave was demonstration of that
wondrous system exemplified by
every bursting bud of spring, by the
birth OF every sentient being, by the
constant expansion of the powers of
intellect and of the love of the heart.
In nature resurrection Is continuous,
and science has found no place or
thing where the germ of life is not.

She wore neat black suit. strictly
tailored; small, -close-ftting black tur-

quite as correct as the rest of her
attire.

said: I'm afraid you'll think this the

der If by any chance you could tell me
where can find rabbit dealer or
hutch near enough for me to get them
before the train leaves for Ardmore?"
The girl at the cigar stand, without
waiting for the clerk to answer, re-
piled: "Why, yes, can tell you.
There's boy near my home who has
some beauties, but It's a good ways
out"
LET me help out In this" inter-
rupted very pleasant voice. and the
widow turned to meet one pair of
admiring eyes and an outstretched
hand.

eyes, and I'll undertake to go hunt
ing for those rabbit skins, with the
rabbits in them, for the Baby Bunt-
ings and have them here by train
time"
ooh, but I couldn't let you. You
must have some business of your own
or you would not be here"
"My business takes me to Ardmore
also, so you can go to the station
when the time comes, and I'll be
aboard with the game, If it's possible"
Mrs. Dale would have demurred still,
but Paul Rochester was losing no time;
he gave directions about his baggage,
and fastened away.
True to his word, he was on hand
promptly with the box containing the
pets. In fact he was not in the habit
of failing In what he undertook to do.
yet he had failed in the competition
with Jack Dale for the hand of pretty
Betty Daere, though he had loved her
devoutly for years. His business In
sArdmore now was to tell her this, and
. that he was just waiting for a season
able moment to press his suit.
They had plenty of time on the jour-
ney to talk over old times and old
acqualntances, also time to talk about
iBetty's beautiful little girls, Ruth and
! Margery, aged five and three, and Paul
was most gratifying listener, asking
g interested questions and enjoying the
recital of childish pranks, till finally
Mrs. Dale exclaimed: "Why, Paul,
you encourage me to be perfectly gar
rulous about my habits, something I've
always tried to avoid. didn't know
you would be SO interested in chill
dren."
'Yes, Betty" he returned grayely,
'Tve always been fond of children
7 and I've often thought that If anything
should happen to you / could take
those little girls and devote my life
to taking care of them"
Betty looked at him in astOnish-
ment, then she tried to make her reply
seem casual: 81 really don't know
of any man, Paul, whom would rather
trust them with than with you; but Of
course, you know, my constant prayer

Palm Sunday.

Palm Sunday has been commemo-
rated from an early period on the Sun
day. preceding Easter, In memory of
Jesus last triumphal entry into the
Holy City. when the people took
branches of palm trees and went forth
to meet him, crying 'Hosanna J" On
this day palms are blessed by priests
and are later burned and laid aside
to be sprinkled on the heads Of wor-
shippers on the coming Ash Wednes-
day, after they have been blessed.
Palm Sunday marks the beginning Of
Holy week.

few days ago Franklin ID. Roose-
welt is quoted as saying that 80 ma
tions had already Joined the league of
nations and that in remaining out the
United States had buried her head in
the sands of civilization. Also that
If the United States joins everything
can be Strengthened out satisfactorily.
If 80 nations cannot put an end to
the endless small wars now in pro-
gress through Europe, and enforce
peace, the foriteth would be of little
or any assistance. II we would have
our soldiers called across the seas
to undertake this stupendous task
of world peace, then the league is the
thing, but II is well to remember that
In taking on this obligation we are
dealing with nations every one of
which has u direct individual interest
to serve.
President Wilson readily accepted
the plans worked out by those polish
ed representatives from England,
France and Italy-men all schooled In
the hard school OF diplomacy, and
