ON Good Friday the death of Jesus is commemorated, and that being so it is a day of gloom and sadness. On Easter Sunday the rising of Jesus from the dead is commemorated, and that being so it is regarded by the Christian Church as a day of great joy. In the old times, indeed, it was called the Sunday of Joy, and in the Eastern world it is still called the Bright Day. When friends met each other upon Easter Sunday the favourite salutation used to be : He is risen, and to this was given the reply : Verily he is risen. Every where there was happiness, and this happiness was shown in many ways. At Easter slaves used to receive their freedom, while at the present day, in Russia, birds that have been shut up in a cage have their cagedoors opened, and are permitted to fly away. That is a beautiful custom an emblem of the free dom that Jesus brought to the world when he broke the power of Death in rising from the grave. In 53heathen ritual, and in some parts of Europe bonfires are lit at Easter, while n the Roman Catholic Church great importance is given to the lighting of candles and tapers. Then again, there are the Pasch or Easter eggs boiled hard and dyed in various colours which are so interesting to . This name of Pasch is derived from the Jewish festival of the Pass over, and the egg we now regard as an emblem of the resurrection but all the old peoples of the world looked upon the egg as a symbol of new life coining forth with blessing. It was, in some respects, a sacred thing in the old heathen world of the Egyptians and Persians while here in this country the Easter eggs used to be blessed by the priests at the altar, and kept all the year as a charm against various ailments. Is it not curious to think, , how races and religions have come to be linked together by small things These coloured eggs which please you so much at Easter link you with strange old peoples and their strange old customs. Easter Sunday is what is called a movable feast it is not held each year upon the same day of the month. The rule is, that Easter Sunday is always the first Sun day after the full moon that happens upon, or next after, the 2ist of March and if the full moon happens upon a Sunday, Easter Day is the Sunday after. As regards the name Easter, it is very likely derived from an old Saxon deity called Eastre for when the Christian religion was first preached to the heathen the missionaries often took an old heathen festival and turned it into a new Christian festival. Now, in the ancient heathen world there was always great joy and feasting in the springtime when the sun began to rise higher and higher in the heavens, and there is little doubt that the early missionaries, when they converted the heathen, gave a new meaning to the old joy. Jesus, the Sun of Righteousness, had risen from the dead that was the new gladness.
