TWO LABOR BILLS KILLED
BY STATE SENATE VOTE

MADISON-Two labor bills, one
prohibiting night work in bakeries,
the other extending the scope of the
law for one days rest in seven to
creameries and cheese factories, were
killed by the Wisconsin senate. These
measures were passed by the assem-
bly, by large majorities.
There was the first evidence of a
division in the upper house alignment
on labor measures, with several Pro-
gressive Republicans opposing the
bills. This is taken to mean that
much of the lower house legislation
affecting labor will meet strong OPP
position in the senate.
The Killian bill, prohibiting work in
bakeries after p. m. or before a. m.
was killed by reclamation. The Ruff
fing bill extending the scope of the
rest day law was killed by Is to 10
vote.

HOW AUTHORITIES
DETERMINE EASTER

Easter Sunday, this year on April
1st, variable date in the spring.
Agreeing that the resurrection fell
upon Sunday the rule adopted by the
Roman Catholic church and by the
church Of England is that Easter Day
is the first Sunday following the Pas
cal full moon. This full moon is the
one that occurs on or after March 81,
the date of the vernal equinox. If the
full moon occurs on Sunday, March
81, Easter is the Sunday following, or
March 2Sth Even this ruling gives
wide range for the date of Easter. In
case the full moon should occur O..
Saturday, March 21st, the following
day, March %, would be Easter Sun
day, the earliest date possible. In
case full moon should fall on Mon
day, March goth, the Pascal, which is
the first full moon after the 21st,
would not occur until four weeks
later, on April II, bringing Easter
Sunday on April g. This is the latest
date possible.
Easter, in modern sense, has lost
much of its original meaning. Sense
less displays of finery do not show
proper evidence of appreciation of the
meaning of Easter. The white Easter
Lily is The flower of the day and flor
lists evidence great skill in bringing
the bloom to perfection exactly upon
the day. The habit of presenting eggs
to friends is an old custom possibly
derived from the Persians. The egg
symbolizes the spirit of Easter, re-
birth and budding forth running
through creation at this time. Dyeing
eggs is a Christian custom, red sym
bolizing the blood of redemption. The
commanding habit of eating large
quantities of eggs on Easter is harm
full and foolish.
Good Friday, commemorating the
crucifixion of Jesus, is a legal holt
day in England and Ireland. In this
country some states make it a legal
holiday for schools and banks. Where
Good Friday falls late in the spring
some people use it for planting seeds,
considering the day suspicious and
favorable. The actual date of the
crucifixion has been set, by good au-
thority, to have been April 6, A. D., 30.
april Fools Day." or "All Fools
Day. is by tradition day for merry
making and jokes, handed down from
periods when people were simpler,
more fundamental, and considerably
more human and child-like than the
blase and -vitalized moderns. In
England and America the one imposed
upon is called an april Fool" In
France he is an April Fish" In
Scotland a "Gowk" The various
Jokes conjured up on this day are of a
harmless and laughable nature. Bricks
under hats on sidewalks, coins with
string attached and the joker on the
other end, sending people on foolish
errands and various wheeZes and
puns are as old as the hills.

RISING TIRE PRICES
MAKE CAREFUL BUYERS

"The end of the limit" in the low
prices for tires has been reached, and
like DUSTY Rhodes" they have
bounced back" to what manufactur-
ers assert is only live and let live
plane. 1t is apparent, from the steady
price advances in rubber, cotton and
other raw materials to the tire manu-
facturer, that further increases of tire
prices to the public may be anticipat-
ed.
Under the circumstances" said
Mr.. Wright, of The Farm Power &
Equipment Co., distributors of Mason
True Value Cords, "The tire user who
has not learned that real value is
found most surely in tires carrying
the Tire Manufacturers Standard
Warranty, is liable to lose out when
purchasing tires. The reason for the
necessity of discrimination now, Lies
in the fact that during the era of alb
normally low prices for all makes of
tires, the INSCRIPTIONS dealer in low
grade, long guarantee castings was
virtually forced out of business, be-
cause his margin of profit was cut TO
the vanishing point by the competition
of standard makes. With the return
of prices of high grade tires to normal
levels, the old batting of low price and
the old song of "just as good" may be
expected from familiar quarters.
This period of dehation has been
an eye opener to thousands of tire
users who have discovered that even
at much higher prices for the we'll
known standard makes, their annual
tire cost per mile would be far lower
than when they shopped around for
so-called seconds" no-name-no-war-
ranty, and other alluring long mile
age tire decisions" Mr. Wright add
ed that the tires that have come
through this ordeal of low price with
unimpaired public confidence are the
ones for tire buyers to tie to for
keeps.
