He always remem- bered that the three essentials to health were good food. exercise out- doors, and plenty of sleep. Now this was all right up to a cer- tain point. but it often interfered with the comfort and pleasure of others. At camp for instance he wanted the rest of the fellows to get up at a certain hour, take a regular walk, breakfast at a certain hour, and so forth. 1f an excursion were planned, he couldn't accompany the other fellows until at least half an hour after eating. He had to be in bed a certain hour to get in the ex- act number of hours that he thought he needed. Although otherwise a good all round fellow and a good athlete he finally became a nuisance to his friends.- Now while this ideas of health were corre--t, this feeling that he must do everything at a definite time in a dcflnite way got on his» mind, and because he was forced to lose some sleep for a few nights he got the idea that this loss of sleep would undermine his health, and that he might even lose his mind. He then tried to make up for this loss of sleep by going to bed early for a few nights. As he did not get right off to sleep, in fact the fear of not getting off to sleep actually kept him awake, he became even more wor- ried, and his appetite began to fail him. In desperation he consulted his doctor who fortunately knew him well. v His doctor agreed with him thn‘: sleep was very important, more im- portant than "fcod, and that the loss of sleep might indermine his health. However he pointed out that one of the reasons he couldn't sleep was because he was afraid he wouldn't get to sleep, and the thought kept him alert, awake. He pointed out however that next to sleep, rest was the next best sub- stitute, and that as long as he got his rest, even if he were not asleep, he could retain his health and do his work. He showed him how, by simply lying down, his heart rested ten to twelve beats a minute just as it did during sleep, and that his lungs rested and breathed air in and out, about four times iess. Similarly with the rest of the body. The chap went to bed that night, without worrying about sleep, allow. ed his body to relax, and in a short time he was off to sleep. And even if he had not gone to 5199i). the doctor's words were true. If you can't sleep, but will lie down and relax the body, and perhaps get another hour during the day to rest, you should be all right.

As everybody knows. thc word Easter means spring 0r springtime. But back of that mean- ing lies also the idea of the East with the rising of the sun and the dawning of the dnY- 5nd 5° when the Easter flowers were springin! and the nesting birds were singing Jesus Christ come forth as the light above the brightness of the sun at the dawning of the dny. H15 fir“ word was Rejoice, or, All hflll- It was a cheering, peace-bringing salutution. Is it not wonderful to think that, as Christ came from the gloom of the tomb, that home of the dead, His first words were words of cheer, ineffable cheer. There were no words of horror or of fear, only gladness. As if he would say to thc ages: The sting of death is gone. The victory of the grave ls ended. Death shall have no more dominion over us forever and ever. All hail! Rejoice! Fear not! No wonder that day upon which he rose became the first day of all days and set the keynote for all thought and lite. No wonder that death was trans- formed and life became victorious. No wonder that they wanted to go into a world of death and wave the torch of life, to sing with joyous lips, “He lives! He lives! We shall my die." No wonder they felt all nature was gay with vivider life as their Master burst the bonds of death. No wonder they knew that henceforth life to them must he an everlasting Easter. They had D0 "Churches then in which to sing with harp or organ. There were no chancels with white-robed choirs to sing the Easter songs. ‘Their livflfi were anthems. Their bOdiBS W0" the temples. They went forth into a realm of death and pain. 0f persecution and of sorrow With triumph. In the faith of the Living one they vanquished pagnism and founded the Church, which does not rest upon a. vision or a lie, upon fiction or illusion. but upon thc great fact: of the Risen Lord whose exultant cry, ,"All hail! Fear not!" sent them into all the world con- quering and to conquer- Soon the Easter bells will be peal- ing in a myriad steeplcs. Anthems will be ringing from ten thousand choirs. In Christ's Church Univer- sal, millions will stand and say: I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord. I believe He rose again from thc dead. And up to that throne of grace on which He sits at God's right hand, the focussed adorations of rejoicing hearts will ascend to Him Who ever liveth to make intercession for us. i once as to the day for its observance lid!!! f0!‘ i116 m9 oon arose betiveen the Christians f Jewish and those of Gentile de- Cent. which led to a long and bitter lmlffll/QTSY.
