This is over sixteen per cent, of all the farm loans in the State.

had to hide the seemingly dead thing, whlifli yet contained a hidden germ of life. A watering by the tears of th* great Nature Mother, the beams of a far away source of heat were necessary. Out of the very "Valley of th* shadow of death" that bravery of green and brilliancy has coma We may not "smell the mold above th* rose," but It has come forth from the blackness of the dirt Into lta fret grant beauty. The Easter time hales us back to the days when the perfect Man, th* Flower of our -race, was cut down "by the hands of wlclfed men, a&4 crucified and slain." It would be an Incomplete history, judging by the analogy of nature, It It left him there. The life history ot your'Hly neither begins nor ends with the fading of the bloom. It wm because this was the first real exemplification of the raising to "the life ot the world to come,"

It was heralded by the Angel of th* r. Resurrection. The first flower of huI inanity to pass into its perfected stage of glorious fruition, was the Man who came back from the dead In the mysi - tery of "a Spiritual Body" on the first . ! Sunday that ever was. ' j Every garden is a sacramental place * j now, since the Easter flowers first d! woved, near 1900 years ago. It is a sign - of the inward grace which moves amid t! the dust of the ages, preserving tba germ lives of all who have gone down | into the soil, resting until the Angel of l_ . the great Resurrection sets to hlB lips the golden trumpet, and sounds th* 0 clarion call of the Great springtime, 1 when the garden of Paradise shall 'f I give back Its souls, and the black earth y and the deep seas shall give up their i- dead, and lives shall bloom again In j new beauty, and the unfading majesty for which they were created at th* j first. When Love Is King When April winds are blowing t And May is just beyond, '■ When all the hills are glowing '■ And Spring's rich robes are donned, u Why should one heart beat sadly, g One soul be in dismay? g The storms that raged so madly h j Haoe worn themseloes away. e Why should doubt come to chill us ^ When bells of Easter ring With gladness that should fill us — When Looe is crowned as king ? b The rain upon the shingles a Makes music that is sweet And on the windows jingles A tune for dancing feet m S E. K1SER |e Easter in the Greek Church, y The Easter festival stands greatest; among the festivals of the Greek church.
