In the days before the suppression
of the patriarchate by Peter the Great,
on Good Friday, or, as tn, Russians
say, Great Friday-the patriarch, In
humble imitation Of our Lords entry
into Jerusalem, rode on an ass from
the Church of Blessed Basil, in Mos

doves, through the Gate Of the Savior,
up to the Kremlin, but last year the
patriarch was forbidden entrance in
the ancient way, says the Detroit

eve before his holiness knew with GER
tainty that he should be allowed to
celebrate in his own cathedral on the
morrow. In spite of the Smelling and

When they reach the Via Dolorosa,

WOMEN IN BANKS

TINE big banks and trust companies
l. are beginning to put women into
important positions. And the girl just
out of college who is looking for
job may find it well worth her while
to interview banker as to getting
start. She will have to begin at the
bottom, but she stands an excellent
chance to get well up to the top.
Take the case of a woman who has
recently been made assistant secre-
tary to the New York Trust company.
Her special work will be to assist the
clients of the company to prepare their
personal budgets, and to advise mi
nors in the charge of the company
bow best to manage their allowances.
There is real opportunity for women
who are capable of it to do very valu-
able and well-paid work in this line.
Another woman is employed by the
Guaranty Trust company in the ca
pacity of bond salesman. She is as yet
one of the very few women who are
making a success in this business, but
her opinion is that it is work wom-
en- can do well.
Any girl who has a leaning toward
finance will be wise to specialize in
some good school. She is advised to
take job in some financial house at
the same time that she is taking her
course at night school, Her job will
probably be a small one, but it will
help out her theoretical work immense
ly to be in actual touch with condi-
lions in a financial office or bank.
There Is dignity about work Of
this sort that appeals to many girls
who have graduated from college and
who do not want to enter the ordi-
nary Office. What is more, it holds
out fine possibilities. But it requires
type Of mind that is not found in
every woman. If you have the gift,
and get the training, you now stand
a good chance of finding full opportu-
nifty to go as far as your capacities per-

field Is rapidly. disappearing.

OPPORTUNITY OF THE CENTURY

The new congress comes into life
facing one of the greatest opportunlt-
les of modern times.
It's action will be watched with IN
terest by millions of people.
One of the worst evils with which
this country is afflicted is the con-
slant and fragrant abuse of board of
trade privileges by certain piratical
spectators who are enriching them
selves at the expense Of the produc-
ing and consuming public.
Boards of trade may be modern
necessity, but multiplying the law of
supply and demand is not necessary
and should be prohibited by iron hand
of the government.
A combination of plutocratic specul-
ators can hammer down or boost to
the skies the price of wheat, corn or
any other commodity are not shared
in by either the producer or the con-
sumner.
1t is purely a juggling of the mark
cts by individuals who have the pow
err to do so, and solely for their own
personal gain.
If we have no law elastic enough to
strange these leeches one should be
enacted and rigidly enforced.
If the law of supply and demand is
allowed to determine the value of
stocks and commodities there can be
no valid objection to the price they
bring, and they will always command
what they are worth.
Any price beyond this is robbery
of the many for the benefit of few.
And price beyond this is robbery of
the many for the benefit of few.
And robbery is robbery, no matter in
what guise We find it.
No congress as yet has had the
courage to meet this supreme issue.
viii the new one go into history as
greater than its predecessors, or will
it content itself with sidestepping the
golden opportunity of the century?
Supply and demandl
What a wonderful treat it would
be to see it again firmly seated in the
saddle.

bolshevik forces, amid the crowds
of steadfast witnesses to the faith, the
patriarchs officiated at Easter.
Easter eve, for two hours before
midnight, one hears the Acts of the
Holy Apostles read. Meanwhile the
lamps and candles, lighted one by one,
swim like planes in one's&k ken. The
church swings in the shadows like
huge censor. Then the gates of the
sanctuary open and, in the vestments
of royal purple, patriarchs, bishops
and priests, with silver and crystal
crosses, like torrent, flood the church
with song. Christ is risen"
The jeweled gospels are Numbered
in different languages from the four
corners of the church to all the earth.
In the orchestra of voices the festival
bell of the tower of John the Great

1t IS lucky to receive an unexpected
gift of an Eastern egg.
1t is bad luck to paint a cross on
Easter eggs and good luck to paint

A tiny lamb or rabbit presented

1t is said to insure luck for the rest
Of the year if you wear a sprig of

If you were born on Easter day, YOU

The custom of wearing a new bon

bring good luck.

Life is what we make it.
BY Mrs. Winnie Exline-

Life is what we make it, friends
With all the trouble and care
For if we look for the trouble side,
We can find it anywhere.
There are some who look for trouble;
They grumble every day.
There's something always going
wrong, go.
But brother, will it pay
To be always sad and complaining
All through the jurney of life?
For life is what we make it friends
Then we should toll and strive,
To make the world more beautiful
And every happy be.
Wear a smile and never frown,
Then all your fiends will see
That you are kind and Thoughtful
Of their happiness each day.
They'll regard and love you truly;
Brother, lister it will pay.
