EASTER IS OLDEST OF CHRISTIAN
FESTIVALS; OBSERVED 400 YEARS
BEFORE JESUS BIRTH CEI. .EBRA TED

the day, according to Scripture, upon
which Christ rose from the dead.
These differences, due largely to
astronomical problems of a confusing
character, continued until the year
325 when, at the council of Nicea, it
was decreed that everywhere in Chris
tendon Easter, should be celebrated or
the same day. 1t was not, however,
until the adoption Of the Gregorian
calendar in 1852 that this decree Sc
cured general acceptance. and even to
this day in the churches of Russia and
Greece, as well as in some Of the
or modern calendar has not been ac-
cepted, Easter falls sometimes before
and sometimes after the date on which
the festival is celebrated by the west
ern churches.
As Easter Sunday thus became q
fixed festival in the Christian. calendar
so, likewise, throughout Christendom,
with the exceptions noted. is it de-
creed that GSod friday. colnnemora-
tive of the day of the Crucifixion
shall be observed on the Fridav imme,
diately preceding the festival Of
Easter.
Christmas again comes into juxta-
position with Easter inasmuch as the
two signalize the great outstanding
facts in the Christian faith--the Birth
connection between Easter, the day of
Resurrection. and the awakening to
life of the earth after the passage Of
winter, gives the festival a significance
out of which has grown the diverse
forms Of observance of the day which
carry it beyond its initial religious
meaning, but without detracting from
it. According to the venerable Bede,
the day takes its name from Eostre. a
Teutnoic goddess of the rising lights
of Day and Spring.

It is interesting to note that Easter
is the oldest of all the festivals in the
Christian. calendar. It even ante-dates
the observance Of Christmas: for while
Easter has been observed from the very
foundation a. Christianity over 1900
years ago, it was not until the fourth
century of the modern area that the
natal day Of Jesus Of Nazareth began
to be celebrated. Like Christmas.
Easter has assumed q universality of
observance which is tribute to the in
stinctive religious beliefs of a large
portion of the worlds people; and the
as the ranking festivals Of the year.
Probably one Of the most interesting
facts in connection with Easter. which,
to those Of Christian belief, marks the
resurrection of the Saviour, is that it's
origin dates back to the old Jewish
feast Of the passover.
7 ''The first Christians being derived
from or intimately connected with the
Jewish church." says a church his
torian, naturally continued to observe
the Jewish festival, though in new
spirit, as commemorative of events Of
which those had been shadows. The
passover, ennobled by the thought of
Christ as the true Paschel Lamb, the
first fruits from the dead, continued
to be celebrated and became the Chris
tian Easter"
But while Easter is a continuation
in Christian form of the Jewish pass
over, early differences arose as to the
pra,ise day on which the Easter fes-
tival should be observed. In the Jew
ish faith the passover occurs in fixed
day Of the month; whereas the Chris
tian believers from the earliest days
assigned the Easter festival to a fixed
day Of the week. namely. Sunday, that
being the first day Of the week, and

ALBI FAILURE
AS DEFENSE IN
LIQUOR ACTION
Cecil Mcmahon Guilty Of Sell
ing Whisky; Will Serve
80 Days and Pay 5000.

A defense based on the alibi that she
was in Havre several days preceding
and following December 6, 1921, the
day she was charged with having sold
whisky and beer to two federal agents,
proved unavailng Saturday in the case
against Cecil Mc1ahon, proprietress of
the Comfort rooming house, 315 First
avenue south, the jury finding her
guilty after five minutes of deliberation.
The verdict left the setnence to be fix
ed by the court and Judge J. B. Leslie
ordered her committed to the county
jail for 80 days.
Hotel Register introduced
to testify that she was in Havre on
December 6. Frank McNlahon, her hus
band, said, he was dicharged from
Columbus hospital on the morning Of
December and that his wife left that
evening for Havre. James Carnell, who
said he was a former banker, and his
brother, f. A. Carnell, former county
attorney of Hill county. told the jury
that Mrs. Mcmahon had registered at
the Liberty rooming house On De-
cember and that she had come to
Havre to look over the rooming house
with the intention of purchasing it.
r. A. Carnell declared that he had
seen the defendant several times be-
cause he was conducting. the negoti-
ations for the purchase of the rooming
house. The other witness declared that
he registered Mrs. McMahon and the
defense entered the register of the Lib
rty rooming house for December to
support the testimony. Examination Of
the register showed an apparent error
in the room number and the date of
registration. it was contended by the
state. County Attorney W. J. Tighe,
in his argument to the jury, said the
register had been mutilated to suit
the needs of the defense. He charac-
terized the entire defense as no more
than fixed up," defense which he
said was usually resorted to by liquor
defendants.
Divided Beer Money
The two federal agents, who said
they had been in the government ser
vice for the last seven months, testi-
fled that they had met girl known
days prior to December 6. They met
her again on the evening of Decem-
ber 6, when she invited them to the
Comfort rooming house and introduced
them to Mrs. Mcmahon. They pur-
chased several pints Of beer at 81 a
pint and when one of the agents said
he didn't like beer and that it would
be necessary to go elsewhere to obtain
whisky, Mrs. Mcmahon said she had a
supply available. The agents further
testified that Mrs. McMahon divided her
beer receipts with Rose.
The prosecution was conducted by
County Attorney Tighe and Chief
Deputy julius Wuerthner and J. w.
Speer represented the defendant.
