 SKATING AT PARK
Children'S Easerness Results in
 Prevention Of Sport

Children, too eager for skating, spoiled their own chances 10 have ! skating today at Walnut Hill park,
 according to Clyde Itllingwood, sup crjntendent Of parks. When the snow fell Monday, children. anxious to skate, cleaned away a section and piled the snow on the ice. It being warmer than the outside air it soft rned the ice, water ran out and over the surface Of the frozen pond and spoiled it for skating. When work men employed by the park depart ment attempted to clean off the
 snow this morning they found the surface of the wading pond had been destroyed.
 This removed the last possibility
 of any skating in the parks at the
 present time. The pond at Stanley
 Quarter park is not frozen hard enough for skating, At Willow Brook park the skating pond on q baseball
 diamond has been completed but Superintendent EllingWood says it
 will take several days of freezing
 weather before there can be any
 skating there The skating pond at Washington park will not be com pleted before Saturday night and al
 so several other days of severe weather will he required to make skating possible there.
 At regular meeting of the park
 board 10 be held Tuesday evening at : o'clock, plans and specifications
 for the memorial approach in Wal nut Hill park, as submitted by C. r.
 smith and Architect II. Van Burcn Magonigle will be discussed. A con- tract may be awarded
 The specifications for the con
 structlon of the municipal golf course also will be discussed.

the significance of one of the funda.
mental and inevitable facts of exist
ence. 1t is conceivable that all other
red-letter days may be abolished from
our calendars, that the calendar it,
self may be done away with. But, no
matter what may happen, so long as
human life exists on this earth, the
spirit of Easter will survive. When
s it ends, then ends all hope for man
kind, all reason for mankind's strug-
gle to exist.
If resurrection" is the spirit and
the message of Easter, then the inm0st
essence Of that spirit can be summed
up in the one word Immortality.
If man can find an answer to the old.
old question that has troubled him
through the ages, the question ''Does
death end all?" he can find it in the
message Of Easter. 1t is reinsurance
! that the struggle to live is worth
while and that he does not face a
hopeless task. Even If he did not
have the comfort of his religion to
help him arrive at that belief, he finds
it in the mere fact of living. Each
day, each,year and each lifetime he
sees the cycle repeated. The sun
comes up in the morning and goes
down into darkness at night But he
knows that it will come up again the

man, reasoning logically from this
evidence of which he is aware every
day of his life, believe that the cycle
of lifetime includes a resurrection
just as does the daily cycle and the
yearly cycle? He does so believe and
from that belief comes his belief in
the life everlasting, in Immortality.
Perhaps it would be more accurate
to say he chooses to believe. For few
men, If any, have ever solved the rid
die Of life to their utter satisfaction.
They constantly grope for the truth,

from the belief, that they shall hav4 it.
So whether he be primitive mar or
modern, civilized man, whether h& be
Christian or heather, the essential
spirit Of Easter, the message Of East
err is the same--if Is q
hope, a message Of joy anu prom
Use and fulfillment in one. That
message is delivered to man in many
forms. 1t comes to him in the riot of
bird songs which greet the sun on
every morning in spring. 1t comes to
him in the greenness Of the grass, In
the swelling buds on the trees, in the
flowers which push their way up
through the earth when the warm
ing touch of the sun Is laid upon 1t. II
comes to him in the softnesS Of the
blue sky, in the fieecy clouds floating
above him and in the gentle caress
of the bieezes that touch his face
as he goes forth to start each days
work. It comes. to him, too, as he
watches young animal life about him
lambs, calves and colts wabbling about
unsteadily at first and then, as they
gain strength, running around in those
funny, awkward, stiff-legged little
jumps which are always SO fascinat-
ing to watch.

cries cut exultingly Spring has come!
Spring has comer' Even If she did
not tell him in those words, he would
know it himself-in the surge of new
strength in his own body. In the quick
ening Of his blood after its winter
sluggishness. AS he hears the call of
spring and the message Of Easter he
feels the desire to pass the message
along. He passes it along in as many
ways as it comes to HMM the happy
note in his voice as he greets his
! friends, in the little snatches of song
which he finds himself singing and in
the effort which he makes constantly
to put that message into words.
So in addition to the visible, tam
gible symbols of Easter, it also has its
invisible, intangible symbols. You can
not "see" or "touch" happiness, but
you know there is such thing and
Easter is the one time in the year
when that happiness Is inherent in
all of us. Christmas, of course, is also
a time of happiness, but our participa-
ton in its joys lis dependent upon
others. Its joys are the joys of giving
and the joys of receiving. The Joy
of Easter is more personal, intimate
thing. Regardless Of others, we can
know its jews. for they lie within Us.
They are the joys Of living and the
joys of knowing that life is everlast-
ing. For thar knowledge. too. is the
spirit of Easter.

: Of that day, for all of
them are based upon the same funda-
mental principle. To the Christian
world, 1t is the anniversary of the
resurrection of Jesus. But that does
mot mean that the essential spirit Of
Easter means something to one part
Of humanity, set off from the re-.
mainder by religious belief. and
that they have monopoly upon the
joys of the Easter season. For Easter
has universal significance and the
keynote OF 1t lies in the idea of
resurrection"
! Look at the word itself Easter. 1t
is derived from the word East, and
East is one of the four cardinal points.
1t is also the cardinal point which has
always been most important in all
religious ceremonies of all races and
creeds. This is because 1t is the part
of the heavens where the sun is seen
to rise-the sun, bringer of light and
heat, the very giver of life itself The
most primitive intelligence of the most
primitive man recognized the fact that
the sun and life were inseparably as
ISOLATED and it was only natural that
when he came to worship the thing
which was greater than he, he should
turn to the East whence came that
greater and higher thing which he
recognized as being the life giving
power.
So each day was to him cycle Of q
whole lifetime. In the morning as the
sun came up, life came into being.
AS the sun mounted in the heavens
life grew in its lusty youth and in
creased in power. At its zenith, life,
too. was at Its highest point. AS the
sun declined, so life declined into
old age, into weakness, until there
came darkness. the synonym for death.
After period of darkness, life came
again. There was resurrection and
once more, the cycle of a lifetime
compressed into "a hours. there was
lifel
And that, stripped of all the tradi-
tion, myth, legend, custom and social
practice that has attached itself to
Easter, is the spirit of Easter, all con-
.centrated In the one word "resurrec-
tion." So Easter has significance
that no other red-letter day on our
calendars has and that significance is
