= ME legends say children were first
l. To be abroad that Easter day
When morning out of darkness burst,
And angels rolled the stone away.
For children's hearts are quick to feel
The deadening pail of mortal pain,
And children's hearts first to heal
When light and comfort come again.
And they had loved the Lord Christ's face,
And on His knees had laughed and cried,
md heard Him say the heavenly place
Is where all child-Iike souls abide;
And they had often heard Him tell
Strong men by pride and greed de6led
That they could never please Him well
Till they were humble as a child.
And they had heard the tale that grieves
All little hearts: how One dear
Was nailed upon with thieves,
And tortured with poisoned spear;N
And how the temples wondrous veil
Was riven by the lightning stroke,
While, mingled with the women's wall,
The earthquake and the thunder broke;
And how black night came down at noon,
And ghosts from graves that opened wide
Skulked out beneath blood-red moon,
When He that loved the children died.
For two long days no girl or boy
In Galilee or Jordan plain
Could laugh or sing, for hope and joy
In every little heart slain.
But when the earth that third Gay morn
was Hooded with such golden light
AS never since the world was born
Had come to dazzle human sight,
Then every child, the legends say,
Knew that the time was at an end,
Knew that the stone was rolled away,
And flew to meet the risen Friend.
And long before the Magdalene
Had reached the empty sepulchre,
Or Peter heard what she had seen,
Or feet John fastened after her,
The children had gone forth and found
The Master in the garden walk,
And scattered lilies on the ground,
And seen His smile, and heard Him talk.
No child was puny, halt, lame,
Or hungry, or in tatters clad,
But clothed if in light they came,
And all were whole, and strong, and glad.
They thrOng along the Kedron rill,
They thread the city through the gates,
Straight up to Joseph's garden hill
Where He that loves the children waits.
They dance, they sing, they climb the trees,
They circle round in ring and file;
They know they cannot fail to please,
And win the guerdon of His smile.
He lifts His hand: 81 bore the pain
Of death for men by sin dehled;
rise hencefOrth to live and reign
Lord of the Kingdom of the Child"
They vanish, and He stands alone;
And when the women come to weep,
The garden flames with flowers new-bIown-
The children at home asleep.
What makes that garden spot so bright?"
The learned rabbs stroked their chins;
They knew not yet that love is light,
That knowledge fails where love begins.
But somehow still on Easter morn
The world is beautiful again,
And in each child-like heart is born
Some yearning of good will to men
Some haunting sense, some happy dream
OF singing birds, Of daffodils,
Of olive branches, or the CLEAN
Of dew-shine on the Syrian hills.

Learning Arhcitecture.

Our good friend, James Bowe, was
telling me the other day the story of
the man who lived in n rented house
to whom someone gave dog. OF
course the dog had to have a kennel.
The man got some old packing boxes
and made it himself. He had never
built anything before and making this
house for his dog gave him so much
pleasure hat he bought Il small piece
of land on the outskirts of the town
and with the help of local carpenter
built house for himself and family.
1t is likely that he would be a renter
today If someone hadn't given him
that dog. Most of us are like the old.
fashioned automobiles without self.
starters. Someone has to crank US
before We'll run.-Forbes Magazine.

DOCUMENT BINDS
ERIN TO CROWN
IRELAND is GRANTED SAME
STATUS AS DOMINION OF
CANADA.
CONSTITUTION FRAMED
WOMAN SUFFRAGE AND RELIC
IoUs FREEDOM PROVIDED
FOR FREE STATE.
Western Newspaper Union News se,ice)

London.-The draft of the new Irish
constitution made public here gives as
the document itself states, force of law
to the Anglo-Irish treaty and express
ly declares that any provision of the
constitution or any amendment there
to, or any law enacted under the con-
stitution, which is in any respect re-
pugnant to the treaty, shall be void
and imperative.
The constitution thus embodies con-
nection with the British crown, as al
ready established in the treaty, and
generally places the relations between
Ireland and the empire on the same
basis as Canada and the other domin-
ions.
The constitution requires every mem
Der of the free state parliament to sub
scribe faith and allegiance to the con-
stitution and swear to be faithful TO
the king in virtue of the common citi-
zenship of Ireland and Great Britain
and lreland's membership in the Brit
ish commonwealth of nations.
The document contains seventy-nine
articles and is considered an up-to-
date instrument, not only granting fe-
male suffrage, proportional repreSen-
t1tion, and referendum to the peo-
pie, but also empowering the people
themselves to initiate legislation. 1t
gives to the chamber great power with
respect to money bills without control
from the Senate, thus duplicating the
position as between the British House
of Commons and the House of Lords.
1t eXempts the free state from ac-
tive participation in war without the
consent of Parliament, except in the
case of actual invasion, and gives the
Irish Supreme Court the fullest pow
ers, only stipulating for the right of
citizens to appeal to the king in coun-
Gil against the Supreme Courts de
csion.
1t provides for freedom of religion
and conscience gives free state citi-
zens full protection against the ar
bitrary power of court martial, and
extends to Parliament exclusive CON
troll over the armed forces, as stipu-
lated in the treaty.

Martial Law in Utah Coal Fields.

Salt Lake City-The killing of a
mine guard and the wounding of a
mine official by men who shot at a
train near Castle Gate, in the coal
strike area of Utah, resulted in the
dispatch of three units of the Utah
National Guard to the scene and the
issuance of a proclamation by Cover
nor Mabey of martial law in the dis
trict. Two bnndred guardsmen have
assumed the responsibility for the
maintenance of law and order in the
vicinities of Cameron, Helper and Sco-
field.
