And dazzling new dresses.

In corals and pearls
This trio of girls
Remind you of Neriads fresh from the

There's the daughter of Erin, the merry

Bewitching in tunic of soft crepe de chine,
Her corsage bouquet
Is of lilies today,
Her veil and her stockings of emerald

But Betty's new bonnet

Just a rim, and a crown covered over

True there is the cheap imitation bro

For along with the gold is the tinsel dis

But all nature seems newer,
The skies always bluer,
When mingled once more in the Easter

service of Easter day, whilst in Ger,

This flower was regarded by the

The Two
Greatest
Festivals
of the
Christian


Easter, like Christmas. is IA 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 early
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 a 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 allusion In the New Tesla
ment that would indicate a very early
observance of Easter, as a feast cele-
bratlng 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 a new
lump, ven as ye are un~leavened.
For our passover also has been sac
riiced, even Christ wherefore let
US keep the feast, not with the old
leaven, neither with the leaven of
unleavened bread OF sincerity and
truth"
In the subsequent records the first
allusion to Easter is in connection
with q dispute between two groups
of Christians as to the date of the
observance when, in the last decade of
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 crucif1xion 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 20 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

REIMBURSEMENT of the dates Is achieved

nineteenth years.

ear varies from 1853 TO $50 days and
Ssh new year may occur anywhere be-
tween September 5 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, i'll dispute because of calendar
and religious differences, was finally
settled, but this did not obviate all
difficulties. Because of the imperfec.
tons of the Julian calendar days of
the month and yes; began TO fall be-
hind. BY the year 1882 the calendar
was 10 days behind and the vernal
equinox, supposed to fall invariably
on March p, fell upon the 18th. This
caused difficulty in fixing the correct
date of the Easter celebration and
because of hat the Gregorian re-
formed calendar vas invented and
adopted.
This festival was always preceded
by a 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 1t was extended to a 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.

PLANTING Of TREES
SUBJECT Of WAGER
(East oregonian Specially


BOARDMAN. Feb. 19.-Boardman
is very busy at this writing planting
trees. A campaign was inaugurated
n few weeks ago and when the Her
mission Commercial Club heard about
IL they cane forward with challenge
that they would plant more trees this
season than Boardman, and would
furnish dinner II they failed TO do
so. The Boardman club accepted the
challenge and the race is on. Some
one will get a dinner November LIST
without cost.
The community service idea is
growing and a committee has been ap-
pointed consisting of S. II. Boardman,
a. L. larsen. and NJ. B. Signs. to
work up the federation OF the various
local organizations. The plan includes
the election OF a community secretary
and the appointment of board of di-
rectors which will be chosen from the
officers of the existing organizations.
The identity of present organizations
will not be sacrificed but will retain
their individuality as bureaus of the
larger organization. The federation
plan should eliminate much overlap
ping of activities and so correlate the
community work that 1t will become
much more efficient.
There is considerable sickness am
ong the children of the community,
mostly mumps and measles. 1t has
not been necessary to close the schools
however.
washington's birthday will be OBJ
served with program in the local
schools. School win convene as usual
on that day and will close at noon aft
er the program, for half-holiday.

truck of G.. Il Blayden and has as
sumed the contract for transportation
of pupils to and from school. Cramer
