Easter

Christianity is often called a love
religion. 1t would be even more ap-
propriate to call it a life religion.
The Lord God is the Author of life.
and this is His first and his compre-
hensive gift to the world. The Nigh
ty phenomenon of creation is an OBJ
ject lesson in life. The word ma
ture" means birth. Jesus said Of his
Father, Il know that his command
ment is life eternal Perhaps this
might be called the great command
ment embracing within itself not
only mankind but all animal life and
all animated nature.
The Lord Jesus himself was al
ways talking about life. In that
marvellous testimony that he gave OF
himself: Il am the way, and the
truth, and the life," the climax is
upon life" He says of his friends
Il came that they may have life,
and have it abuntantly." He said to
Martha: Il am the resurrection, and
the life: he that believeth on me,
though he die, yet shall he live; and
whosever liveth and believeth on me
shall never die" When Jesus said
to the Twelve one day, Would ye
also go away" Peters answer was,
Lord to whom shall We go? thou
hast the words of eternal life. +"
II there is one thing more than
another which characterizes the
teachings of Jesus Christ it is life.
Therefore Easter is an appropriate
festival in the Church. 1t is Chris
tan through and through. In the
world the great enemy is death. 1t
claims power over all men. The
Christian challenges this. Paul in
the spirit of Christ. cries out, 20!
death, where is thy sting!" Because
of this confidence the Christian
looks forward to better world be-
yond the gateway of death. and the
eternal life that Jesus told us about
is not mere eXistance. They who
have truly learned TO rejoice Ibis
service in, this world could not be
satisfied with idleness and useless
ness even in Heaven.

battling as that which you viii see in
"12:1O," which will be the attraction
at the Crescent Theatre today, to-
morrow and Wednesday. Tho star of
his super feature is Marie Doro. one
Of the most illustrious stars that ever
left the spoken drama to take up
screen work. Such famous men of the
theatre as David Belasco, Charles
Frohman, William Gillette and Arthur
Hopkins recognized her ability and
backed their judgment by investing
her with plays to exploit her genius.
The director vas Herbert Brenon,
one of the few very great men who
have given us pictures as will be part
Of the history of p~hotoplays.
No intimation of the battling prob
lem that is the very backbone of this
feature Is shown at the beginning of
this strange tale made use of in Gre
ating a picture that will grip you as
YOU have seldom experienced. The
nerve-wrecking experience of a young
and sensitive girl at the hour of mid
night. in n lonely house. far in a
sparsely-settled ne~ighborhood, with
strange noises, slowly moving doors,
praying beside the body of her adopt
ed father who has passed away and
as the clock strikes the covers on
the bed moves. This is a sufficient
indication Of the suspense which this
picture holds to make n who Is
sven not overly curious want to sec
It. 1t is the one picture among the
many that you have seen that defics
the most imaginative to tell just how
it will end.
