the second century of the Christian
era, PolycrateS, bishop of Ephesus
and Irenaeus. bishop of Lyons, wrote
letters to Victor of Rome differing
with him on the subject of the proper
date for the feast.
The crucifixion occurred on the
sixth day of the week, or Friday The
following day was the Jewish Sabbath
and the Resurrection occurred on the
first day of the week. The early
Christians of Jewish ancestry wished
to signify their separation from their
former faith, so, presently, they
ceased to observe the Jewish Sabbath
and made their holy day Sunday, the
first day of the week.
The Jewish calendar is based on the
phases of the moon, having months
of 90 and 80 days alternately. The
days of the month in the Jewish cal
endar, therefore, change from year
to year during a period of 10 years
or the metonic cycle, at the end of
which period the phases of the moon
reoccur on the same day. A partial
reimbursement of the dates is achieved
by introducing an extra or interclary
month in the third, sixth, eighth,
eleventh, fourteenth, seventeenth and
nineteenth years.
The years having this interclary
month are known as "embolsmic"
years. The length of the Jewish
year varies from 353 to 3S5 days and
because of this irregularity the lew
iSh new year may occur anywhere be-
tween September and October 5.
All other dates, including the Pass
over, are movable because of this
popularity of the calendar.
In 325 A. D. the date of the Easter
feast, in dispute because of "alendAr
and religious differences, was finally
settled, but this did not obviate all
difficulties. Because of the imperfec-
lions of the Julian calendar days of
the month and year began to fall be-
hind BY the ..ear 1882 the calendar
was 10 days behind and the vernal
equinox, supposed to fall invariably
on March q, fell upon the 18th. This
caused difficulty in fixing the correct
date of the Easter celebration and
because of that the GregOrian re-
formed calendar was invented and
adopted.
This festival was always preceded
by fast of some duration. At first
the fast began on Good Friday and
continued for 40 hours. A little later
it was extended to three days and
later still it was extended to week
known as Holy week, during which
there was general abstinence from
flesh meats. The first mention of
the fast, corresponding closely to our
present Lenten period, occurs in the
fifth canon of the council of Nicea in
which it is styled ''the quadrigesima"
or 40 days.

The Two
Greatest
Festivals
Of the
Christian
World

Easter, like Christmas, Is Il season
of great rejoicing throughout the
Christian world, writes George B..
Catlin In the Detroit News. The two
might be termed the alpha and the
omega of Christian festivals, since
one celebrates the nativity and the
other the resurrection of the Lord
Jesus Christ from death and the
grave.
AS the early Christian records are
fragmentary and imperfect it is i'm
possible to determine when the cele-
bration of Easter began. The carly
Christians of the church In the East
were mostly converts from Judaism
and these Christians continued the
observance of the principal feasts and
fasts of their ancestors, the ancient
IsraeliteS.
The death and resurrection of Christ
occurred at about the time of the
Passover, which Jesus and his dis
ciples had gone to Jerusalem to OBJ
serve. The Last Supper, held in an
upper room" Of private home in
Jerusalem, by some authorities sup
posed to be in the home of the mother
of st. Mark, was the Feast of the
Passover:
The only aIlusion in the New Tesla
ment that would indicate a very early
observance of Easter, as feast cele-
brating the Resurrection, is in the
first collection of the letters of st.
Paul to the Christians of the church
in Corinth; fifth chapter and seventh
and eighth verses: purge out the
old leaven, that We may be new
lump, even as We are unleavened.
For our passover also has been sac
rificed, even Christ: wherefore let
us keep the feast, not with The old
leaven, neither with the leaven Of
malice and wickedness, but with the
unleavened bread of sincerity and
truth"
In the subsequent records the first
allusion to Easter is in connection
with dispute between two groups
of Christians as to the date Of the
observance when, in the last decade OF

ANCIENT ENGLISH TAG DAY"

KNIGHTS Wore Feather Ornaments.

1t is pretty certain that the custom
of the knights and cavaliers of wear
ing feathers did not come from the
Indians. In the Fourteenth century
in the reign of Edward H. it is SET
down that the knights wore on Their
shoulders feather ornaments callet
"aillettes' or little wings.
All the men of that generation an(
those that Immediately succeeded il
wore plumes of ostrich feathers

cler writes that the men wore "feath

well to the flesh. According to an
other authority the derivation is from
carnis and levamen, solace, meaning
the solace of the flesh, but the former
seems the more probable origin OF
the term. In modern Rome these fes-
tivities are limited to eight days. In
several southern cities of the United
States as New Orleans, Memphis, Mo
bile and Galveston, short carnival
celebrations are held each year begin
ming on Monday before Ash Wednes-
day and continuing through Shrove
Tuesday. Mardi Gras is applied to
this carnival in America.
