Quite a long time ago there were
two little girls. They were about
seven and eight years old.
A few days before Easter they
began to talk about Easter eggs
and white rabbits, they thought
the white rabbits laid pretty color
ed eggs. So the evening before
Easter they thought they would
make them some rabbit nests. They
got some shoe boxes and some
dried grass and put the grass in
the boxes and set them under the
current bushes in the garden, and
then they went out to help their
Mother with the milking. When
they got through with the milking
it was almost dark. SO they decided
to see if the rabbits had been to
their nest and. Oh, joy, they found
three eggs in one nest and two in
the other. Two happy little girl

FLYING A SAFE pASTIME

Flying is one of the safest pas,
times in the world. Judge for your
self. When the United States was
training men to fly in France it was
found that one man lost his life for
every 3,400 flying hours spent aloft
If you count that the average speed
in flying is something like seventy
miles an hour on the average, it
will be seen that only one life was
lost for about 100000 miles actual
ly flown. In other words, a man
while learning to fly, not an expert
enced pilot, could fly about ten
times around the world to every
fatal accident Boys Life.

Easter
Dear Juniors ::

Happy Easter to you!
Easter Day, we are told, stands for new
life-and especially, the wonderful coming
to life again of Jesus.
Anything new we like and admire but
when we realize that these long twentyfour
hour days that belong to us are to be more
splendid and happy than ever before be-
cause of the life Of Jesus, and his coming
to life again it makes us, very, very glad
So, on Easter day. everyone dresses up
in his very best and smiles brightly and
feels that Friend Life is a pretty fine chum
after all. And all you children have colored
eggs and candy eggs and little cotton chick
ems and Dummies, because they mean new
life, too.
Best of all, Easter day is observed in
the spring of the year when all the trees
and grass and birds are awakening from
their long winter sleep. Isn't it just won
derful? The buds on our lilac bushes are
so big and green they are almost bursting
our apple tree is covered with little green
buds, up the hill from us, is a yard all over
which crocuses are blooming, white purple
and gold-the tulips and daffodils are al
most in bloom and the birds just sing and
sing. 1t all seems part Of some great
triumphant procession.
And it seems to suit the event so well,
for the coming to life again of Jesus is the
greatest triumph that ever was.
hope the bunnies bring you all sorts OF
good things and that they forget am sup
posed to be grown up. For l feel real fes-
tive and young, even though | an your

came running in the house with
their eggs, they thought they heard
noise so they decided they had
scared the rabbits away. SO back
they went to the nest again and
finding another egg they were sure
then that rabbits laid eggs for
Easter Sunday. And, Oh, such
pretty colored eggs they were.
AL day Easter Sunday they en-
joyed their eggs and talked about
rabbits laying eggs for Easter Sun
day. You make a nest and try
your luck with the abbits.-Good-

How would you like to live in a
country where you knew that, at
any minute soldiers might SWoop
down on your house and kill you
and father and mother or carry you
all away to become slaves" asked
Ladydear of the children as she
continued to tell them about
Armenia. Jack and Jane agreed
that they wouldn't like it.
well, the Armenians have reas-
on to fear something like that at
any minute" said Ladydear When
the Turks raid city or village the
Armenians who aren't killed must
see all their grain and other sup
plies carried away"
Cant anyone do anything to
help the Armenians?" asked Jane.
Armenian societies and other or
CARNATIONS all over the world are
trying to relieve the suffering in
Armenia and help the people to be-
come strong enough to control
their own country some day, The
DiS6Sl idtloAS may PlOlCtt iici
from the massacres by the Turks
and the forces of other Asiatic
countries replied Ladydear
Late that afternoon Captain
Brave turned from watching his
charE and compass long enough to
tell the children that they were
nearing the city of Bitlis, where
they were going to stop. And such
queer city. thought Jack and
Jane, when they finally piled out
of the airplane near the center of
the town. And you would have
thought so, too.
First of all, the city was built on
a hill. The houses, little, low, one
story affairs, were built right close
together up and down the streets
which ran up the sides of the hill.
And, would you believe it, on the
roofs of these houses the children
could see grass growing. And on
one house, close to them as they
turned into the first street, two or
three sheep were nibbling away at
the grass. And the children were
playing games on the roofs.
The children marveled at the way
the children scrambled from roof to
roof until they noticed that little
steps or platforms connected the
roofs.
why, you can walk right up hill
on the tops of the houses" eXclam-
ed Jane in glee.
And few minutes later, when
the children peeked into one of the
houses the children were more sur
prised than ever. The house had
just one room and in one end of
that room were three oxen, eating
away as contentedly as you please.
1--WE thought it very funny when
we saw how the Swiss folk kept
their cows in the lower part Of
their chalets," said Jack, "but this
is funnier than that"
The children soon got another
surprise. too. for in the next house
they found the family eating supper

Easter Time

Every Easter the chickies lay the
eggs and the rabbits paint them.
Then on Easter morning the rab-
bit leaves the colored eggs in the
nests that the children put outside.
Sometimes he leaves little wag-
ons with Dummies fastened to them
and the wagons are filled with ex-
celsior and colored eggs.-William

School.

Instead of sitting about "a table and
eating from individual plates and
other dishes, papa, mama and the
three or four children were sitting
on the floor eating out of one big
dish. The dish was set on very
short stool.
