THE TORNADO

Recent tornadoes in Texas and
other areas have focused atten-
ton on this type of storm, about
which comparatively little is
known even today.
One of the generally-agreed
upon conditions which usually
exists before a tornado is an in
version. This places a layer of
heavier air above a layer of light
air, temporarily, and the heavier
air eventually breaks through to
the surface of the earth.
This condition often occurs
along an occluded front, and when
it does - most often in the spring
and early summer tornado
conditions are present.
Unlike hurricanes, tornadoes do
not live long. They may travel
a few miles or as many as sew
eral hundred miles, but they usu-
ally bounce over the earth and
hit relatively few places along
their course. They range in width
from several hundred yards to
two or three miles. The speed of
wind inside them is estimated to
exceed $50 miles an hour.
Only in Russia and in the mid
die and western sections of the
United States are tornadoes, as
know them, of frequent occur
renee. Most of Europe, and other
parts of the world, are spared
this particular type of storm, ex-
cept in rare instances.
Tornadoes are usually accom-
panied by rain or hail and occur
most frequently in daylight. They
move rather slowly, usually about
twenty to thirty miles an hour,
and one a usually get out of
their path in an automobile, or
possibly on foot, if he sees the
''cone" or funnel of the ap-
preaching storm.

The history Of Easter, which is
a symbol of the Resurrection to
us, lis interwined with many re-
lgious customs and observances
dating back hundreds of years
and before the time of Jesus
Christ. However, Christians have
utilized various customs and ira
ditions to create and color this
observance in the real spirit of
Jesus rebirth.
The Easter egg, for example,
came to be associated with Easter
because eggs were forbidden to
be eaten during Lent and on
Easter Sunday they were tradi-
tionally served. The Easter egg,
though, had dated back to the
Egyptians and Persians, and also
the Greeks and Romans, who ate
eggs annually in their Spring fes-
rivals. Eggs have long since been
connected with new life, as was
the rabbit, a most prolific ami
NAL, and the rabbit was eventual
ly TO be used, in children's tales,
as another emblem of fertility or
new life.
Jesus arose from the dead on
the first day of the week, and
Gentle Christians have held ever
since that Easter should be OBJ
served on Sunday. Jewish Chris
tians for many years observed
the day on the date of the Pass
over, regardless of whether it was
Sunday or not.
In any event, it Is appropriate
that Easter comes in the Spring,
when the renewal of life is so
apparent about us all. Sunrise

TODAY'S YOUTH

AS we have heard for many
years, today's youth is supposed
to be going to the dogs.
Cycles occur in a country's
history when youth is more ram
bunctious than normal. 1t would
appear that the crime waves
which are sweeping Chicago and
New York are examples of a
tragic cycle in which we now find
| ourselves.
The main responsibility for this
juvenile delinquency, which is
serious and includes such crimes
as murder, lies with parents, who,
too often in today's busy world
do not take the time to rear their
children carefully and give them
the Christian training which is
all-important to impressionable
youth.
Fortunately, teen-age crime in
the smaller cities and in the typi-
cal American community has not
reached the alarming state of af-
fairs now worrying officials in
the metropolitan areas. Neverthe-
less, juvenile crime is on the in
crease in all parts of the country.
This seems to be a very clear
challenge to our churches, ou-
schools, to parents and law en-
forcement officials.
1t is also a challenge to or
CARNATIONS which work with

youth, and to those In charge
of these, organizations.
Special programs to maintain
the interest, the highest level OF
activity and the stimulation of
youth is in order in every COM
munity. Where churches, the
YMCA, sports programs and
school programs do not fill the
entire gap, and this is usually the
case, interested citizens are in
vited to give of their time and
effort in training today's youth.

services in our churches - an
observance of recent origin in
most churches - symbolizes the
Resurrection at sunrise. Today
this religious practice is observed
in practically all Of the churches
as a symbol of hope, inspiration
and faith.

For Year Ahead

WASHINGTON, January 30 -
With new Congress Just getting
underway and the Presidents re-
quests not yet received in detail
on Capitol Hill, the Washington
scene is still one of expectation,
question and speculation. It seems
certain that the year 1857 will be
a year Of unknowns for the
first months anyhow
The business picture is certain
ly on of doubt. There are those
who see a better year in 1857
than IN 1856, and among these
people are the top governmental
advisers and economists. But
there are those who see larger
gross and about the same, or a
little less, profit as in 1856.
Secretary Of Agriculture Ezra
Benson has predicted that this
year would be a better one for the
farmer. He says exports will set q
record, prices viii go up and sur
pluses down. If he is correct, il
might swing the economy's move
