'\■ w :: " ■> ■ Easter:— Easter is the day of great hope. I- is, the day which emphasizes, nian/s . instinctive beliej that “though he die, yet will he live.” In the spring, nature with its ever recurrtent, resurrection from the apparent death of winter tends to strengthen naan’s belief in his cyrn immortality. Religion, which is individual man’s effort to reach out and commune with God reinforces the beauty and truth of "Christ’s resurrection. Christians find joy and.-renewed vigor in their belief that 1 “Christ \ the Lord if risen today!” They sing joyfully, “Alleluia, Alleluia!” 4 Gur churches will enhance this inward spiritual joy. in services that commemorate the redemption of mapkind through Christ’s triumphant victory over death. So on this Easter Sunday let -• 'S'.-- - ' 1- - us hope and let us The church holds for this day the lovely couplet; "‘This is. the day which the, Lord hath made; ■~fe r us rejoice and be glad therein.” , "Why" Os Korea:— Ever since the Korean war lieA . gan, waves of questioning about, it.: wisdom and reason have swept across the nation from time to ' time, Lately it is being said, not y in pMfre isolated instances but with increasing frequency, that the men in the battle lines wonder, when they have time to think, why they are there. 'Why are they fighting In cold and misery, an enemy whose purpose they can hardly understand? Underneath the commie,xitiesCof- - this Korean war there is reason, he’st; understood by analogy with World War 11.

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE DURING the morning, a wagoher came. He’d been driving eastward through the night and must give fata horses a rest before he went on. The men In the taproom gathered around him to hear what news he had to give. “Dyou mean ft—that you didn’t know a war was on till last night!" He let out a booming laugh. "Why, Hull’s been marchin* an army through Ohio these weeks past! Headin’ for Detroit to cross into Canada there. Likely they're miles Into it, by now. Another army's set to gw north from Lake Cham* plain and they*!! meet Hull’s men and they'll squeeze the Britishers between them. It’ll be all over before fan. But you fellows here with your guns'll have your fun!" Now Quint felt less apprehensive. Fighting was not likely to come here, to the river. He found himself thinking that a keel tor the new ship could be laid, straight off. There’d be nd ferry money coming tn through the summer months but he had enough saved to buy the timber. William Pettlpiece bad come into the taproom. At sight of him Quint was! certain he had come to preach, but be sat at a table, listening attentively to the talk around him. He waa trimly shaven and wore' his black clothes, looked less cadaverous and not so old. Later he approached the wagoner and engaged him tn some talk, and then to everyone's astonishment he was accepting the man's Invitation to enjoy a glass of rum. “A wew role, this?" thought Quint. It was midafternoon when Quint, coming up from the Rock, met the old man outside of the shedroom door. "A moment, Mr. Darby, to say goodby as those mea were saying it this morning." QUint found Ms voice over Ms surprise. “Running away? Or joining tip with the militia?" Pettlpiece drew his thin body up to a haughty erectneaa “Your amusement is in-timed, Mr. Darby. There is work for even those who cannot carry a gun. But my work I is not here-— this stranger who came today has said I may travel

Quint frowned, remembering that sound of the clinking of coins he had heard in the shedroom. But he did not speak of it—to have the old pest gone for good was worth more than the cost of his lodging and board. He was in his office when Jennet unceremoniously opened the door. Her face was puzzled and disturbed. “Uncle Quint, did you know that Aunt Rhoda is going away? She’s dressed to travel, and has a satchel packed." Quint sprang to his feet, but he stood, staring at Jennet, stupefidt, "Where can she go? And how?" Then it flashed in on him—with this wagoner, along with old Pettipiece. Escape. From war? No —from him. His face went white. "Where is she?" “In the kitchen. She’s just come down. Rhoda was standing in the middle of the kitchen looking slowly around it, as if she were impress* ing everything in it upon her mind, to be remembered afterwards. Her face was flushed with excitement and her eyes were bright. Her bag waited, on a chair. "Rhoda, what is this? What are you thinking of doing?" § She lifted her bead with some defiance, but she answered calmly., ‘Tve opportunity to go away with this wagoner.
