first words to the waiting and anxious
ones he said, "Why weepest thou? /
am thy Lord and in few days / go
to your Father and my Father, to
your God and my God"
And with these words new hope,
new joy, new faith was born in the
world. The Resurrection was His last
comforting promise. the last confirma-
ton of His divinity, the last great
assurance of His gospel-that death
did not end all and thatit meant only
the beginning of the life to come.
Upon that doctrinal foundation
Christianity is built AS st. Paul
said: IF there be no resurrection Of
the dead, then is Christ not risen,
and If Christ be not risen, then Is
our preaching vain and your faith Is
also vain" SO the spirit of Easter
is one of hope, of faith, of ecstasy, Of
joy. 1t brought to mOrtals an endur-
ing belief in Immortality. Skeptics
may sneer, materialists formalize their
cold analyses, biologists probe into
the mysteries of life-the faith and
the hope that came into the world
with the risen Christ is ineradicable.
From the deepest depths of the heart
of great agnostic 1t found utterance
by the tomb of loved one-''for in
the night of death hope sees a star
and listening love can hear the rustic
of an angels wing"
The greatest joy of the world is in
the spirit of Easter and fittingly 1t is
concentrated at time when nature
itself is exemplifying the mystery of
resurrection, when Mother Earth has
donned her green mantle, the bells
Of the lilies are open and fiinging
forth their unheard melodies, the
sun itself seems dancing with the
spirit of the resurrection that has
come with its annual promise to ma
ture as we'll as to the hearts of the
faithful.-Kansas City STAR. Mt

Easter Promise
Brings Comfort
to Believers
Hope, Joy, and Faith Com
bined in Message
Savior Left
to Men.

Easter day, the day of the risen
Christ-what is its message to human
ity? Above all other Christian festivals
it's significance is paramount. His
birth beneath the wintry stars in the
Bethlehem manager brought joy only
to the few. He came unto his own
and his own knew him not. His death
on that dark Friday plunged even His
most faithful into despair-their faith
was not yet complete. Nineteen hun
bred years ago the loving ones that
had followed Him modrned about his
tomb. The promised Redeemer of
Israel had gone the way Of all hu-
man flesh and the great stone of the
tomb sealed Him from their view.
So His followers mourned and wept,
as stricken mortals mourn ndfweep
today. His great promise was forgot
ten-even the faith Of those whose
eyes had seen Him and whose ears
had heard His words, humanlike, was
weak-resurrection was still mean
ingless word to them. And then, on
that first Easter morn, the great mir
acle that was to confirm their faith
and, to become the real foundation
stone of Christian hope was fulfilled.
He rose from the dead and among His

Jerusalem After the
Tragedy of CALVARY

Clouds, black and frowning, settled
on Calvary like shroud.
The Sabbath stiffness, following the
mad imprecations and bloody tumult
of the day before, sat like a rebuke
over the courts Of Caiaphas and PLATE.
The voice of the cock was hushed,
as if in shame at fisherman's cow
ardice.
In the square houses of the Jews
many still lay abed, bordering bewil-
deredly their wrath of yesterday.
In Jerusalem prison an executioner
hefted the stuff of a strange garment,
grinning over his gamblers luck.
In the procurator's palace wife
saw the worried eyes of her husband
staring doubtfully at his hands.
In the temple thirty pieces Of silver
lay scattered and cold, and the hand
that had hurled them was cured of its
greed.
The rocks of Golgotha held an
empty cross, the reek of blood, the
salt of tears, trampled lilies.-"L. F.

MoraUian Service Has
Become Historic Event

The Easter services in the Moravian
church at Bethlehem, Pa. are most
unique and interesting. The ceremo-
mics begin at daybreak when the from
bone choir of the church plays chorals
at the intersections of streets, warn
ing the citizens to rise and attend
services. Then a staple musical serv-
ice is held In the church, after which
the worshipers preceded by the min
listers and the choir march in process
sion to the cemetery. Here hollow
square is formed, with the minis
tiers and the choir In the center, and
service is held, consisting of music,
prayer and ritual relative to the res
direction. This cemetery was select
Of. the Moravian colony, in 1742, and
in it the dead lie side by side, men on
one side and women on the other, the
idea being that they are equal in death
as they were in life. Many Indian
converts are buried there, including
John Schoop, the famous Last of the
Mohicans" Many of the original mark
ers have been destroyed by time and
weather, but replicas of these have
been carefully prepared and set in po-
sition, giving complete history of the
entire life of the colony. The from
bone choir dates back to the early
days of the church, when, it is related,
some Indians, contemplating mas
sacre of the inhabitants, heard the
sounds Of the trombones, and aban-
doned their intention, thinking that
the Great Spirit had spoken to warn
the Moravians of the danger.

she really liked his parents. Surely
even people like the Gordons would un-
derstand that old folks that had al
ways lived in the country would be
different Little by little he convinced
her that he could not stop his parents
coming, but he could not convince her
in the least that their coming would
not spoil her dinner party.
She met them, however, in her GUS
tomary friendly way, for which he
was grateful, but he could see that
she was extremely nervous, especially
so when the Gordons arrived next day.
They all sat down in the lovely sun
lit dining room, which Vera had made
so attractive for this occasion. A
beautiful mound of Easter lilies graced
the center of the table and the gleam-
ing glass and silver sparkled under
the spring sunlight that came through
the big windows. Billy was more
than nervous as the meal began; he
watched Vera and his mother and IA
Their at intervals, looking for some
thing to happen. But nothing did.
Apparently their other guests knew
nothing of the undercurrent of ner-
vousness that was there, for they were
talking and laughing as If they were
enjoying themselves thoroughly. And
as the meal progressed Vera looked at
them wonderingly several times es
they leaned close toward Billy's ia
Their and mother as If in fear that they
would miss a word. After all, 1t
seemed as If the very thing that she
had said would cause the failure of
her party was making 1t a success.
That evening, after all the guests
had departed, Vera came to Billy's
side, tears shining in her eyes. Humbly
she asked his forgiveness, telling him
that she had learned a lesson that
she would not soon forget: II have
been so small, so little" she sobbed.
Il know / don't deserve your forgive
ness, Billy, but 1 am so sorry for the
way acted. Why, the Gordons could
not stop telling me before they left
how much they had enjoyed your ia
ther and mother. And to think tried
to make you stop them from coming"
Billy forgave her, of course, and in
his heart he rejoiced because she had
learned much-needed lesson.

Whenever ! hear the Easter bells
Ring out their carols gay,
The graves from all the hills and delIs
Dissolve from sight away.
! see the mighty planet left
Without marble stone
To tell Of death, or one bereft
Who comes to weep alone.
Dear hands, long folded to their rest,
Return to touch my own,
And voices memory has blessed
In each familiar tone
Speak as In other days to me;
While on the sprinetime's breath
Is borne to every land and sea
The news, "There Is no DEATH

Billy Carlson picked up the phone
rather nervously and called his wife.
After a few moments Of aimless con-
versation he gulped little and
brought it out: ''Vera, I've just had a
wire from mother; she and dad are
coming to spend Easter with u.s.
Vera Carlson did not answer for q
moment. then her voice came through
the wire cold and cutting: ''You know,
Billy, we just can't have them now /;
you will have to wire them to come
some other time With the Gordons
coming to dinner, you know that it
would be just impossible to have them
you know how they are--why, it
would just spoil everything"
Billy swallowed hard as he listened,
but he tried to keep his voice cool
as he answered: "Vera, it's not like
you to talk that way. Mother and father
are all right-a bit old-fashioned, III
confess, but as lovable as they can be-.
They would be heartbroken if I wired
them not to come-I just can't do it.,
even for you. Let's wait and talk
things over when come home"
Billy knew that Vera had set her
whole heart on making success Of
their Easter dinner. She had asked
the Gordons, who were considered the
best and smartest people in Lonsdale,
and had been more than fiattered at
their acceptance. For the past week
she had talked about it so much--only
last night she had told him she felt
everything was going to be lovely.
He fretted all day at the Office and
dreaded facing Vera after her out
burst Of the morning, but even this
did not prepare him for the storm Of
tears and protests that met him when
he went home. He had never seen
Vera like this before-it amazed and
shocked him-he had always felt that

$154,666.74. The report of the Board
of Audit was accepted. An appropri-
alton of $4,000 was made for the

County Agent
Urges Farmer to
Study Seed Corn
LOW GERMIN ALTON MAKES
NEXT YEARS SEED A PROF.
LEM: LYNN SHELDON OFFER
HELP.

The termination of seed corn is
reported very low by farmers who
have taken termination tests and
from reports of state tests run on
samples from various parts of the
state. Reports from Iowa, the Da-
kotas and Nebraska show that the
same conditions prevail in othe'
states, due to the high moisture cor
tent in the corn and the early heavy
frost.
Corn selected from the field before
frost and protected from freezing ur-
til after thoroughly dry is alright.
A large PERCENTAGE of the corn saved
for seed is terminating very low be
cause it was allowed to freeze witt
too much moisture in it.
For these apparent reasons it be-
hooves every farmer to become con-
cerned of this condition and to run
tests on his seed corn to make sure
of the condition at once.
This may be done with the old Rag
Doll Method very satisfactorily if a
seed corn tester is not at hand. The
important factor is to use some meth
cd at once to try it out.
This appeal is to every farmer who
has good seed available for sale.
Make tests of crib corn also report
to the County Agent. at once all lot
of good terminating corn stating
what kind of corn it is and in what
condition it is kept.
There is demand for good seed
from everywhere. If you need it you
had better get it early. If you have
it for sale, it will help materially to
dispose of it if you, will report to
the County Agent so that quantities
may be booked for sale and buyers
secured

including corn, oats, barley, flax,

should also be listed at the County

price, name and address. Lots of
calls are already coming in, and only
one sample of timothy is listed.
