THE EASTER SEASON

To-day terminates the Lenten per-
iod of 40 days that is observed by
the Catholic and Episcopal denomin-
ations in their faithful attendance to
the church services and by conform
ing to its laws and In self denial In
their various walks OF life. Those of
Protestant faith are now uniting In
holding special devotional Lenten
services in larger places.
Like Christmas, Easter is a joyous
season on the church calendar, and is
ushered In to-day-Easter Saturday,
following Holy Thursday and Good
Friday. Easter Sunday, tomorrow,
commentaries the Resurrectior of
Jesus Christ from death and the
grave, and will be celebrated through
out the Christian world.
Easter is in celebration of the Res
urrection-the awakening from phys
ical death. AS such 1t typifies the
season OF Spring-the awakening of
nature from its Winter sleep and, in
cident thereto. the resumption of
human activities.
Men and women generally, having
obeyed the lenten injunction to SUBJ
due worldliness and the flesh, are dis
posed to turn normally to the other
direction and "in the fires of Spring,
the Winter garments of repentance
fling" The most prominent mani
festation is to emulate the world Of
growing happy things and put on
new. enchanting raiment.
The first Easter revealed that
Christ still lived. Appropriately then,
the occasion became and has contin-
ued one for the casting aside of
gloom and fears and the inaugura-
tion of hope and joy.
