FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 1919 A Good Omen Faster is celebrated to mark the resurrection of the Savior of mankind from the grave. It promises life, and life abundant beyond the realiza- tion of the soul bound down to things of this earth. It is a time for joy, for flowers and all that belongs | to the overcoming of a great sorrow. Good Friday is a day of grief and | 'loss. On that day those devout per- | sonal followers of the Lord saw His | life go out upon the cross. The Earth | was darkened and nothing seemed 10 | be left to those who had believed in the coming of the new kingdom but despair and great grief. It was on Good Friday that the United States accepted the burden] which was laid upon the world by the national ambition of Germany. It is to be on Easter that the world is to be made glad again by the consum- mation of the treaty: of peace that shall conclude the years filled with | the agony of war. { ' But it will be only by the conclu- | sion of the peace that will be lasting that we shall be able to celebrate the Easter of this year in the spirit that should prevail upon such an occasion. If, when the terms of the peace have been given to the world, we find that the rights of mankind have been sac-| rificed to national ambition the sor- rows of the Calvary through which Europe and, in a lesser degree, the United States, have passed, will not have been the price paid for the se- cure future of the world. There will be other wars and other Calvaries. |: It is a propitious omen that the day | of the resurrection should be set for | the day to see the restoration of} peace to the world. It will be a| grievous thing if the omen is not ful-| filled. ---.BA DSH |u | Magazines For The Soldiers | Magazines are still being for the men in the service overseas: The number of those contributed since the signing of the armistice has | fallen far the record of the months of the period of the war, while | the requirements of the men have de- | creased very little, if any. It is true, of course, that the ranks of men oveér- seas have been materially reduced by the transportation of many units home, yet the greater amount of leisure, the removal of 'the spirit that was bred of the fighting and died with it, have made the furnishing of the facilities for amusement and en- tertainment for the men a much more vital problem. There is nothing harder than to| have to stay in one place, when there | seems to be no reason why that par- | ticular spot should be chosen aver' any other. With no need to serve as a military force, the continuance un- | der military discipline cannot help | but grow irksome in the extreme. | Books and magazines help to relieve | the tedium of the situation and should | be furnished to the soldiers in the quantity necessary for every purpose. Even if the magazines that used to vy the line requesting that each copy be sent on to the men in the service have removed it from the cover, the opportunity still exists for sending magazines for one cent postage to the men in the service. Readers are being asked by General Pershing to continue their practice | sought below of sending their periodicals to the road. | attended by Friday afternoon, April 11, the] mothers were invited to a Peace | inbilee at the Horace Mann school | were reviewed in a delightful series men of the army until such time as| Mrs. Henry Stanton, 635 Black- the need is passed by the return of | stone road.
