From those whose hearts now ache for

In virtue of what occurred 1000
years ago, there was brought within
9the grasp of men the accomplished
fact of new creation, built upon the
foundation of the supreme sacrifice
and established outside of the domain
and power of death. Nothing that
has transpired since has ever touched
those foundations or marred the per-
lection of the moral structure reared
thereon. In virtue of what TRANSFERRED

Gethsemane through which myriads
have gone, of the actual tasting Of
death which millions have done, the
hearts of men have been shaped and
nodded for the reception of the cur
rents of the new life.
To all such this Easter Sunday will
be tinctured with an inexpressible
charm to which their hearts will re-

Taft and the Supreme Court

The Supreme court of the United
States, said to be the most august tri.
bunal in the world, Is now for the
first time In its history presided over
by a chief justice who formerly was
President Of the United States
William Howard Taft. Chief Justice
Taft succeeds in office the late Ed.
ward Douglas White of Louisiana who
died last May. Two months later Pres.
ident Harding appointed Taft TO the
vacancy, the third Ohloan to become
chief justice. The appointment was
confirmed by the senate, but owing
to the close of the last term of court
and the adjournment over the summer
months, Chief Justice Taft never pre-
sided over the court.
The administration of the indi.
cial oath, the final step In the Induc.
lion Of new chief justice, was at.
tended by all of the age-old ceremony
attached to the nations highest Fri.
bunal. The oath binds the chief i,ls.
ect to perS0ns and do equal right To the
