EASTER
AN1 HEN we speak about pictur-
AkGRA osnna Eastor ,.,storas our

NN1 HEN we speak about pictur-
VlWW esque Easter customs our
thoughts naturally turn to
other lands.
Russia used to be the scene of the
most wonderful Easter celebrations,
but today the festivals of the church
are frowned on, and although the
churches are still filled, it is mostly
the older people who attend them, and
the ancient ritual is shorn of much
of it's former splendor.
In Hungary, however, you will still
see amazing scenes at Easter. AS mid
night on Saturday approaches gay
throngs crowd into the churches
townspeople in evening dress and peas
ants in the colorful national costume.
AS twelve strikes, the priest calls
Christ is risen," and the choir replies
"He Is risen.'
There are flowers everywhere. And
ii, as you mingle with the gay multi
tudes, some one throws water over
you, you mustn't be annoyed. It's
an old Hungarian custom.
Brazil sends up thousands of rockets
on the morning Of Easter Sunday, and
some of the Spanish cities celebrate
the festival with a procession.
This year there won't be so many
opportunities for observing the Easter
customs of other lands, except for
those who go cruising. But number
of old Easter customs are kept up.
Maundy money is still distributed at
Westminster abbey the day before
Good Friday; there are quaint Easter
Monday dole survivals at Biddenden,
Kent, and Ellington, Hunts; and eggs
figure in a number of old ceremonies
in various parts of the country. Then
there is the famous centuries-old-go-as
you-please football game which is
played through the town of Working
ton every Easter Tuesday.
The Maundy money ceremony is par
ticularly interesting, not only for it's
picturesque details, but because the
king usually distributes the gifts in
person. They consist of purses of red
and white leather, with long strings at
tached, and containing money specially
minted for the occasion. The number
of recipients is supposed to be the
same as the sovereign's age in years,
and each of them receives exactly that
number of pennies in four-penny,
three-penny, two-penny, and penny
pieces. All the money is siryer.-An-
swers Magazine.

Easter Is Our Day of
the Resurrected L

MzAsTER is the spiritual New
VI Years day. With the drab De-
cember days the old year of the
calendar comes to an end and at the
midnight another circle of months be-
gins. Though we christen it the New
Year and celebrate its birth with the
ringing of bells, outwardly there is
no change apparent and inwardly
there is only the hope that change for
the better and brighter may soon
come. But with Easter day comes a
real sacramento TRANSPORTATION of ma
ture and of human hopes-the "out-
ward signs" and the inward grace"
conjoin-the yearnings of the spirit
are answered from the earth and from
the skies. The dead things have come
TO life. Beauty and splendor are re-
turning to 'soothe and heal and bless"
Now the real New Year is beginning
and its heralds are abroad everywhere
in the land. With flowers, with mu-
sic, with prayer and thanksgiving,
with hopes renewed, we welcome it's
dawning. 1t is the day of resurrec-
tion.
Religion and nature both meet today
in the miracles of rebirth. The hopes
of Immortality and redemption SYM
boliZed by the Risen One centuries
ago are again given solemn pledge and
saction. From that ancient tomb we
hear re-echoed that heartening ques-
ton, "Why weepest thou?" From the
sod, the trees, the shrubs and the flow
ers comes again the visible assurance
that they were not dead but sleeping.
To these symbols, spiritual and nat
ural. the human heart must needs re-
spond, and does respond whatever its
cares or sorrows, its waverng faiths
or its buried hopes. Easter is our day
of resuirected life and resurrected
hopes. and to such rebirths all things
are possible. Greet the New Easter
year with cheer and song. Re
lease the newborn hopes and faiths to
grow and expand with awakening ma
ture and the resurrected spirit.-Kan-
sis City Star.

AcI mOLner, SUE pretty anu dppSohh6'
and learned to flirt in her cradle. How
long did you say you'll be in Denver"
Geoff's eyebrows lifted in imitation
Of her own. He had caught the trick
from her when he was an adoring
small boy, and had never lost 1t.
II told you," he said mildly. "A
year; perhaps longer. 1t depends on
how well stick to business and learn
what I'm there for"
LESS than a year them" she said
with some dryness. ''You work like
tiger. / wonder why?"
The idle question betrayed how little
understanding she had of the fierce
ambition which had whipped him
along for years. To be as brilliantly
successful as his father had been; to
command his mothers respect, her ad-
miration; to stand at last on an even
footing with her who had been the
idol of his boys heart! This had
been the goal toward which he had
been working through long months
and years Of study.
And now that he was within sight
Of that goal, now that he had met
his mother as an adult instead of a
child, he asked himself uneasily If 1t
had been worth while after all. His
clear young eyes saw her now as she
was: a woman suddenly deprived of
all that had made life worth while to
her, getting through the rest of her
days as best she could, having an af-
fectionate interest in her son but never
rising to those heights Of companion
ship and understanding of which he
had dreamed so long.
He was remembering this converse
ton now as he stood outside the
Carys' yard. There was little girl
in there, he saw. jumping rope. She
had heavy dark hair cut in an Egyp-
tian bob, big black eyes, thin little
heart-shaped face, and long thin arms
and legs. She wore handsome linen
frock which was none too clean, a
pair of blue silk socks and patent
leather slippers. Her bare knees were
scratched and grimy.
AS Geoff laid his hand on TIL, gate
she came toward him, still jumping.
"Hello" he said with his friendly
grin. Does Mrs. Aylesbury live here?"
The child nodded. "And Cynthia
and Cap'n and Marguerite"
Geoff shook his head reprovingly.
"Never give out more information than
you have to-" he instructed her. TITS
extravagant, and besides, in these days
of kidnapers-"
She skipped closer and regarded him
with interest.
"Are you kidnaper?"
II don't know yet. I'll tell you
later, when I'm better acquainted with
you. Is Mrs. Aylesbury at homer"
She nodded, never ceasing her rhyth-
mical motion.
"You can unlatch the gate yourself,
can't you? l have to jump all the
way up to the front steps and 1 have
to be careful about cracks Step on

FARMING A BUSINESS

Not that it makes any difference to Henry Ford, but
resist taking exception to his statement that
farming is not business but method of making iv
ing" It most certainly is business and with prob
lens that are harder to solve than those of most other
enterprises In facing these problems the farmer must to
be successful resort to business methods.
There farmers who accept Fords theory and who
not content to look farming mere means of
making living On the other hand there some who
go at it in business way They keep books the
any other business; elaborate system but accounts
which enable them keep close track of everything paid
out and taken in. They know where they att and
running farm not htormss proposition with them.
The farmer is, actually believe, counting failure
he thinks he independent and nfabe He dependent
his soil and victim of his location He is dependent

chant He is not independent Of foods pests falling
markets farm without records of kind by which

IMPROVEMENT IN LIVE STOCK

The improvement of live stock through selective
breeding such commonplace matter these days that
think little about it. But there time when it would
have been impossible the idea had been Matched
Up to 1850, European writer points out, there
fences, and the animals wild mixed up
breed with another. 1t not until about 1900 that
form of pure breeding began to take shape About
1900 the custom began of letting out bulls and
to test what sort of stock they bred. 1t
monty thought that the of the early masterbreed
due to inbreedng This not the case it
due to the of good bulls In the production of such
bulls certain amount of inbreeding was, of course
essary Then effort to collect pedgrees the origin
of the present herd books.
Now it is a simple matter for every live stock pro-
Queer to be live stock mprover with the best breeding
available to ALL and for the time being at attractive
prices, everything considered than ever before.
