Easter Relic of Old Pagan Celebration old pagan celebration of the beginning of spring, and this explains why some of those old customs and traditions are still linked up with It--such as the use of the egg and the rabbit as symbols. But in the religious senses Easter commemorates the resurrection of Christ. The crucifixion took place at the time of the Jewish Passover, and this fixed the time so far as the Jews were concerned. But the Jews counted time by the lunar year of 354 days, while most other nations went by the solar year. Thus a confusion as to the aotual date to be observed as Christ's resurrection at once arose. That confusion caused bitter controversies during the early history of Christianity and it remains with us today. While at first Easter was observed by the Christians at the same time as the Jewish Passover, gradually they were weaned away from that practice and another date was proclaimed. Elaborate rules were adopted known in Latin as the "computus paschalist" by which to ascertain the date for Easter. These were based largely on the Jewish "paschal moon" but there were complications to the process and so the date does not necessarily coincide with that of the real or astronomical moon. As the time of the actual full .moon is different for different points on the earth, it is plain that some arbitrary rule would have to be adopted. It was the purpose of the church fathers not to have Easter ever fall on the same date as the Jewish Passover. However, In 1023, this did come to pass. Easter is the first Sunday that follows this ecclesiastical or pascal full moon coming in or next after the nominal vernal equinox, March 21; if the pascal full moon falls on Sunday, then Easter skips to the following Sunday. The date of Easter, is specially important because it fixes the times of the other movable feasts'for the whole year. Lent begins with Ash Wednesday and is the period of forty days (not including Sundays) preceding Easter. Shrove Tuesday Is the last day before l^nt and thus marks the end of the gay winter season, known in. Europe as the "carnival" or "meat-farewell" season. The French term for Shrove Tuesday is "Mardi Gras"---meaning literally "fat Tuesday." This date is observed by feasting and revelry--hence the **fat.H--Pathfinder Magazine. g EASTER a SBy .s * LEILA E. BRACY ^ (In Detroit Free Prem.)

For more than 1,900 years the resurrection has been the keynote of Christianity. Preachers of faith in Christ as the hope of humanity have from the days of the Apostles based their messages upon this foundation and without the resurrection have regarded preaching as vain. . Thought Rabbits Laid Eggs |n the old days in Germany, the Children built nests in the brush and thicket, even as they do in the United States today. When they ran to the nests on Blaster morning, rabbits usually scurried from the bushes. And when the children found the bright eggs in the nests, they jumped to the conclusion the rabbits had laid them. Their parents did not disillusion them.

And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. MAnd they said among themselves, 'Who shall roll away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?1 "And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away, for it was very great. "And entering the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment, and they were affrighted. "And he said unto them: 4Be not affrighted. Ye seek Jesus of Nasareth, which was crucified; He is risen; He is not here; behold the place where they laid Him. " 'But go yoar way, tell His disciples and Peter that He geeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye seek Him, as He said unto vou.'
