used a form of writing very differ- ent from ours. In their picture 180811888 the hare was used to in- dicate the word “moori." and a Very fitting symbol it was. since the hare and the moon are both nocturnal. 1'00. baby bunnies are not born blind like kittens, but. like the moon which the Egyptians called" the "open-eyed watcher of skies. come into the world with their eyes wide open. Because of this. the Egyptian name for hare was "un". which means "to open." And the hare brings forths its young in thirty days. the same length of time as a lunar cycle.

Q. I live in a rented house and hBl/e Sub-let one furn shed bed- room, My husband is ill and we have to getaway for about five months. I would like to know if I could sub-let the rest of the house furnished or could the landlord prevent me from doing so. If I can sub-lee, will I have to inform the landlord?

A. As far as WPTB rental regu- lations are concerned. there is no order covering such a. sublet. in this connection. This is, a matter of or- dkiary Provincial law and your solicitor can advise you about it . . _ Your lease may contain a pro- vision that d-lsallows subletting the accommodation. It's a matter be tween the tenant and the landlord and WPTB rer-tals regulations are not concerned in it. If you should f ahead and sublet the rest of the

oilse furnished, you would of course have to have the rentals set by the WPTB Rentals office.

Q. I rented a six-room house and I had two rooms rented to sub tersinis. Now I have glverl up the house and gave my sub tenants notice to vacate. I am gone. They are still there. two’ weeks overdue. I had the electric meter shut off. They phoned for a ma to come down and put it on aga in their mine. Are they allowed to do this? What can be done?

Wit-hour lcmwing all tile de- tails about your rentals arrange- ments with your landlord and your sub-tenants, we can't give you an answ to your problem. We would advise you to go at once to the nearest WPTB Rarlitals office. tak- ing copies of any leases or notices to vacate and correspondence you have. They will be glad to tell you what t8 do.

LEGEN DS OF EASTER.

‘There are a greay many legends concemlng animals. birds and in- sects that are associated witih. the Easter celebration.

Olf course. the most common ani-

mill-symbol of Easter today, is the rabbit and brightly colored eggs. The egg was regarded by the people of ancient times as symbolic of life and the early Chris made it an errl-bleen of the Resur- rection.

As everyone knows. the date of Easter is decided,by tihe moon and many) Fecfrle believe they can see a ra. bt. nstead of a man. in the moon. Tile ancients considered the hare a symbol of the moon. be- cause lt wandered out to feed only

Ellen 's Diary

This morning brought clearing skies and I know that more than one of us at Alderlea was relieved to find that the grey skies of l-e- ccelt days had lifted and ai. last the whirling snow flurrles llad found convenient places to rest. April storms are a bit tedious- or perhaps I only found this one so, because of the llouscv-ieaning season at hand. And presently sun shadows dappied the lawn and yards; long heart-warming triils of song floated beguilingly from the maples and there were flashes of matchlesa blue wings from the orchard. James, at a window early, reckoned that “since we have logs to yard from the woods and tiiere'll be no last to this snow-—liiu=ly we'll g0 at that first thing" but when the plans were made it was

Another symbol oil’ immortality was the peacock because its flesh was said never to decay and be- cause ol the annual molting at which time the faded feathers were replaced with beautiful new ones.

The mythical phoenix and the eagle were other emblems pf ini- mortality. The phoenix, according to folklore. when tired and weary. usually every five hundred years. would build a nest atop some tree and then fan the nest into flames. When the fire had w- siuned both nest and bird. the phoenix would arise. more beautiful than ever. to a new life. The eagle when old and worn, would fly into the sun and afver its old body was consumed. a resurrection took place and the mighty bird retumed more vigor- ous than ever before.
