CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, March 22.-May wheat
touched the lowest price since 1916.
Strained economic conditions, bear
ish crop reports and slackness of
export demand appeared largely
responsible. The market closed
unsettled at y c net decline to u C
advance with March $1.51% to
$1.52 and May $1.42& to $1.43.
Corn lost Nc to &c. Oats finish
ed unchanged to $c up and provi-
sions off 21ac to Acc.
Heavy liquidation by holders
took place in wheat after the first
hour. Revival of talk about enact
ment of an emergency tariff had
temporarily given the bulls a little
advantage. but purchasing orders
came largely from shorts. and with
gossip current about storage and
warehouses being clogged with re-
fused merchandise selling pressure
broadened. especially as crop re-
ports were bearish and foreign in
curry reduced to minimum. AT
the extreme low point of the day.
however, one big commission house
turned to the bull side and rallies
ensued. Besides, an elevator in
terest was credited with selling
March and buying May at the
finish.
Corn and oats averaged lower in
sympathy with wheat. May corn
and May oats as well, sold at
cheaper prices than since 1913.
Provisions were weighed down by
the action of grain and by uncer-
tainty about labor troubles.

Editor Morning journal:
Dear Sir:-The state Highway
commission has started to remOye
three spans from the east end Of
the Barelas bridge. Under these
same spans last year there was
q three-foot current, and in lieu of
the spans taken out they are going
to put in an earthen embankment.
This embankment would not last
over night, and If 1t failed to last
it would run all the Rio Grande
in the lower end of town-in the
shop district. The county commits
sioners should enjoin the State
Highway commission from remoV-
ing these spans. If they want new
spans they should put in new ones
on the west side and allow the
present spans TO remain.

BY Howard r. CARTS,

Uncle Wiggily Longears, the bun
ny rabbit gentleman was hopping
through the woods one day TO give
his pink nose a twinkle, his tall
silk hat a ride and his rheumatism
crutch a chance to see if any spring
flowers were growing. All Of a sud

sensate thing, a mere object, 1t had
the power to become living being.
(. To the early Christians the egg sym
bolized the resurrection. Because of
this, and also because eggs were looked
upon as meat, Roman Catholics of
Italy, Spain and France were formerly
forbidden to eat eggs during Lent. At
ter the fasting was over, eggs we're the
first meat to be eaten. Every Easter
table held eggs dyed red, to represent
the blood of Christ, and piled in pyra-
mids at various points of vantage
along the table. Before the eggs were
broken they were blessed by the priest.
Al special blessing for the Easter
eggs was given out by Pope Paul v,
who sat In the papal chair from 16oo
to 1921. This blessing, which is still
used by many Roman Catholics, is:
BLESS, o Lord we beseech thee, this
thy gift Of eggs, that 1t may become
n wholesome sustenance Of thy faith
full servants, eating it in thankfulness
to thee on the morn of. the resurrection
of our Lord" .-s w..
Greek Catholics believe that eggs
laid on Good Friday have within them
their own blessing, and that he who
eats them as his first food on Easter
Sunday wilt be blessed throughout the
year. They, too, hold that the egg
is symboiical of the resurrection.
But all OF these eggs are the fruit

Why All Mankind
Halls the Morn of
; the Resurrection

Easter morning-the most joyous Of
all the mornings Of the year, the one
great day of gladness, supreme above
all others ON the calendar, the Morn
of the Resurrection.
And why Is this the gladdest day
of the year?
1t Is the gladdest Of all days because
1t typifies the hope that beyond the
grave there is another life than this.
1t speaks the promise that we shall
rise again from the dust Of death, that
we shall be reunited with those whom
we have loved and lost, that we shall
open our eyes in another world where
there is no parting again, no sorrow,
no loss, no pain.
Compare THIS hope with all other
hopes that man can have, and they
sink into insigniflcance.
If tho sons of men believed that
this life were the only life they could
ever know, If they believed that the
grave is the end and that when they
We're laid away with the dust from
which they came there would be no

first sent to the earth by the moon

bit was this: Like as I die and rise

to life again. L. ~: .$*,1 IL, I: |. Z. ~
d. The rabbit, i however, thinking it
would be a good Joke on the people
Of the earth, reversed this gospel:
What he said to the people was: "Like
as die, and live, no more, so shall ye
all die and be no more alive" The
people took this gospel very sorrow
fully, which amused the rabbit, and
he went back to the moon god and
boosted of what he had done. The
god was so Infatuated with his mes
sepger that he threw Ratchet at him
and split his lip wide open, and that,
if you would Ike to know, is why the
rabbits lip is slit. III ~. -.
In certain parts Of England, particu-
larry at Hallaton, there was an old
custom Of celebrating Easter Monday
with "hare pie scramble" and bottle
kicking" This celebration began with
a procession leading to the house of
the rector Of the parish and consisting
of two men abreast, carrying sacks
with cut-up pies inside; three men
abreast, two carrying wooden bottles
filed with beer, and the third a large
dummy bottle that was to, be kicked
about; one man, carrying pole on
which was fastened q hare in q sitting
posture, and, last of all, a band Of
music. The band was followed by
all the people Of the parish who could
walk. The dummy bottle was kicked

But the Easter rabbit is far, far
older than this tale, and the myths
about the rabbit, many Of them associ-
ating the rabbit in one way or another
with eggs, are centuries older than the
Easter festival.
The Moon festival in China comes
in the springtime and corresponds with
Easter. It's great holiday. Nobody
works. Everybody puts on his best
clothes and goes out for general jolli-
fication. The elimination Of events
comes on what Is our Easter, which,
as old-fashioned people will tell you,
comes ION the first Sunday after the
first full moon after the 22nd Of
March, ~
It is on this night that "the rabbit
in the moon" Is best seen. The Chi.
nese, In their Moon festival, pay HON.
age to this rabbit. Their ancient reii-
gion, Taoism, taught them that this
rabbit was the slave Of genii who kept
him everlastingly busy pounding herbs
and drugs to make the elixir Of life.
He squats in a cassia tree to do the
pounding, and if you will look at the
