St. Augustine’s Church Notes.

Easter Sunday, the festival of the resurrection of our Lord from the dead is the principal feast of the ecclesiastical year. St. Leo has called it the “feast of feasts” and said that Christmas is celebrated only in preparation for Easter. It is the oldest feast of the Christian church, the connecting link between the Old and the New Testaments. The joyous character of the time besides the adorning of the church and altars with flowers and lights, is marked in the services of the church by the consfcant repetition of the word alleluia, (the Hebrew cry of joy meaning “praise the Lord”). During Easter time the paschal candle is lighted on Sundays and holy days during high mass and vespers, and in primitive ages the newly 'baptised converts came to church in white robes, which they did not lay aside for a week. The keeping of other feasts ends with their octaves, hut that of Easter asts till Pentecost, full fifty days. All movable feasts are calculated from Easter, while Easter itself has no fixed’ date; it is the Sunday after the first full moon following March 21; as a result the earliest date of Easter is March 22 and the latest April 25. The order of services will ibe as loilows: Early mass with sermon at 8 o’clock. The Catholic Order of Foresters will receive holy communion at this mass. During this mass the children will sing the following songs: “Christ the Lord is Risen Today; “Today He’s Risen;” “Hail the Holy Day of Days”. Rosary, high mass and sermon at 10 o’clock. The choir will render the following music: Vidj Regina,” “Haec Dies;” “O Salvataris”; “Tantum Ergo,” “Holy God We Praise Thy Name,” by the congregation.

JAPAN BRINGS UP NEW IMMIGRATION PROTEST

International Situation May Force President to Yield to Nipponese— Veto May Halt Crisis. Washington, April 21.—At a time when the United States is on the verge of war with Germany and involved in a situation in Mexico w r hich may force intervention, Japan, has revived the immigration question with ths government. Viscount Chinda, the Japanese ambassador, called upon the president at the vyhite house today. This in itself was an unusual circumstance. The ambassador requested the opportunity to confer with the president in order to present the protest of his government against the immigration bill which passed the house and is,pending in the senate. This blil is objectionable to Japan because it seeks to legalize the “gentleman’s agreement” under which the Tokio government has been prohibiting emigration to the United States and its dependencies, and because it classes Japanese with Hindus and other races. Japan is determined that her equality with other nations shall be recognized. Philip Blue received a letter this week from hife daughter, Mrs. William Brown, in, Canada. It had been opened, read and then sealed with a censored paster at the end. Evidently all mail now sent from Canada is being examined.

Safe Medicine for Children.

“Is it safe?” is the first question to be considered when buying cough medicine for children. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has long been a favorite with mothers of young children as it contains no opium or other narcotic, and may be given to a child as confidently as to an adult. It is pleasant to take, too, which is of great importance wheh a medicine must be given ; to young children. This remedy is most effectual in relieving coughs, cold sand croup. For sale by B. F.

An Easter Message.

Easter Sunday is the one day of the year that appeals to the hope of the world. It is a day of joy, of love and of hope. When Jesus Christ arose from the grave he brought life and immortality to light. Easter Sunday binds all humanity together and breaks down all ban iers of creed, race or church. Easter is the exaltation of Jesus as the Godman, who triumphed over death and became the first fruits of them that slept. Every church in Rensselaer will be joyous with the good cheer and hope of Easter. The songs, music and eit tire program of the services will be full of Easter joy and inspiration. The pastors will preach on the Resurrection. Let every family worship God Easter with glad hearts and attend divine services. Every church and Sunday school will welcome every one who comes. Let the one thousand grown-ups of Rensselaer wh<r do not regularly attend church, be found in the house of God this Easter. —Contributed.

Sportsmen Resist Efforts To Have Game Law Changed.

All efforts on the part of “commercial” hunters of the central west t< have the federal migratory bird law changed so as to permit the shooting in spring of wild ducks will be vigorously resisted by sportmen who believe that the law is essential to the preservation of wild fowl life in this country. The law is now before the United States supreme court awaiting a ruling as to its constitutionality, but pending a decision the supporters of the measure intend to see that the violators are prosecuted. Pot hunters and market hunters, ac cording to the law's defenders, are the only ones who seek the privilege of spring shooting, and it is said they are working in a quiet way to arouse sentiment in favor of their contentions among the lawmakers at Washington. Their chief contention is that the law is too sweeping—that it favors some districts while o|>erating against others. It is deemed that the law is necessary to protect the fowl during their hatching and migratory seasons and to preserve the game.
