ago.

have his last collection-models

Canada and Latin America
shown here.
He was too i'll to witness the
display. Mrs. Faith put up a bold
front by attending in her usual

For millions of people, to-
morrow is Easter, and they will
celebrate the resurrection of
Jesus Christ with JOY and
thanksgiving.
The celebration follows by a
week the Easter of most
churches.
This situation results from
the use of two different ways of
calculating the event. One way
is used by all Protestant and
Catholic churches and the other
is used by the Eastern Orthodox
faiths.
There are seven Orthodox
churches in the District-two
Greek. two Russian, one Syrian,
one Armenian and one Ukrai-
nian.
Their ceremonies are similar.
At midnight the churches will be
full of worshipers. but entirely
dark. At the stroke of midnight
the priest will light a single
candle at the eternal flame"
hidden behind the altar.
Advancing through the gates
OF the sanctuary, the priest will
raise his candle high and call
out to his invisible congrega-
ton:
Come forth and take light
from the undwindling light, and
glorify Christ who has risen
from the dead!" The choir re-
peats the cry.
Church Soon Lighted.
People in the first rows will
rush forward. light their can
dies from the priests and carry
the flames back to the others.
In a moment, the church will be
ablaze with light.
The priest, holding up a pic
ture of the Resurrection, leads
a procession through the church
and back up to the altar.
He reads out the Gospel pas
sage describing the happy event
and the choir breaks into a
hymn of jubilation.
The congregation itself then
joins in and the church echoes
with repeated shouts:
Christ has risen."
Truly He has risen"
The choir calls to the priest
to begin the regular service and,
in the Greek churches, the priest
then begins the Liturgy of st.
John Chrysostom, the service
which is repeated every Sunday:
Blessed be the Kingdom of
