taken in faith, hope and charity, we
must credit to the great message of
His life and His death.
'That we do not profit more amply
by our heritage from Christ is due to
many things, but probahlv most Of
ali to the fact that in our pe.force
busy lives we pause too infrequentiy
to think of Him, to ponde- and to
weigh the greater things within the
grasp of human intelligence
what better day to arrest our
hurried ways and to give heed to the
things that Immortality which i"
sane mind can deny, than Good Fri
day!
"We pause now and again to pay
tribute to men who in passing by
have performed great human service.
We have time to do homage to de-
parted rulers, to the kings OF earth.
Why not some sign Of profound af-
lection and appreciation for the King
of Kings!
Somehow, through the nation,
this thought has been stir: e f
late years. Thirteen states have
made Good Friday a legal holiday.
Chambers of Commerce and other
civic and social organizations, join
ing the churches, have approved the
fine idea. The three hours Of the
Savior's agony, from noon to three,
have been set aside in many laces
for quiet and meditation. Ma,.nee
theaters have closed during those
tremendous hours that have guided
the currents Of history for nearly
two thousand years. Business has
stopped its haste and preocCupar' n,
Men and women have looked into
their own souls in the great light
that has searched the world from
the Cross of that tragedy of TRACED
les. The movement is growing,
going on in the hearts and minds OF
people, and finding constantly new
communities in which its EXPIRE SION
halts the days work and brings re-
Election of hallowed things And
from these observances comes ar
inspiration for the finer things of
life through which eventually we
blend into the purely sp ritual eX-
istence.
"Why not Good Friday obser-
vance in our city this year? Let US
give three historic hours to the cter-
nifty of which our passing in this
sphere is but a fleeting phase.
Think it over"

TOMORROW, GOOD FRIDAY;
SHOULD BE OBSERVED

1t is hoped that in the future River
Falls will more thoroughly observe
Good Friday, and especially the three
hours, from noon to three, co'Ice-
Grated to the hours of Christ's agony
on the cross. With that purpose in
view we publish herewith an editorial
from the Wisconsin State Journal
which explains the significance Of
this day in very forceful manner:
Good Friday commentaries the
passing of Jesus Christ out of the
flesh. In the agony of that day was
laid the foundation of our prerent
Christian civilization. Christianity
has not rendered life perfect, but in
every step by which life has been i'm
proved there has been the lifting, ex-
alting influence of the Lowly Naza-
rene. Whatever slow steps we have

too, how the cold folks" used to con-
slider us and our bikes such a NUS
ance on the sidewalks and paths,
soaring the horses, and all? And
now the kids of today are going
through the same experience, at
higher speed, with their automobiles,
their radio sets, and the airsllip.
What will the wonder topic be
twenty-five years hence?
