Stephen also saw Christsitting .. ' on the right hand of God, Acts '1: 55. Thus Christ had really risen in body and ascended into heaven in bod- ily form, but was changed from mortality to imrnortzility of course before ascending as will all of God's people in the future at Christ's second coming.

And should we not memorialize this great event asked the evangel- ist? We should, but not by cele- brating Easter. The event of Christ's resurrection should be celebrated in the way that God says in his word. This is done by being baptised as Mr. Johnston read from Romans 6: 3-5. Also Co‘. 2: 12. But‘. Easier Sunday is not the memorial of Christ's resurrection. Easter. said Mr. Johnston. does not occur on the same month every year. It is sometimes in March and this year in April. The way people find ‘Easter is that it always occurs the

irst Sunday after the first new moon after the vernal equinox. But is the saviour‘: resurrection left in such uncertainty as that, asked the evan- gelist, and it lllaster Sunday is the memorial why do people keep fifty two of them every year?

Easier said Mr. Johnston is not a christian institution at all; It was borrowed from heathenlsm and was known in some heathen coun- tries by the name of Astarie and in some others as Ishtar and was in existence long before the Christ- ian era. This very fact shows that it was not the memorial of the res- urrection of Christ. The early Christian church in the fourth centtoury after Cri‘1ris"tl.‘el£>Lrsr-owed marg cus ms rom ea in so as become more friendly with them and in trying to get them into the church, and after adopting their customs attached christian excuses to them to justify themselves in the using of such. These customs were held on by the christian church for over a. thousand years in the time of the Dark Ages and in the days of the Reformation when the reformers came out from the darkness that entshrouded ' the church they carried out many of these customs into the Protestant faiths and there they have re- mained ever since. He urged his hearers to give up heathen customs and follow the unadulterated work of the living God, the Bible.

seek Witness of liamur Tragedy

urrection and the origin of Easter was the topic discussed by Evan- gelist 14'.» w. Johnston in the Brighton club Sunday night. He spoke at length on the proofs of Christ‘s resurrection showing from the scriptures that the body of Christ rose from the dead, and that he did not rise a spirit being as some suppose. He referred to ex- perience oz Thomas who would not at first believe in the resurrection until eight days after the other dis-

For the great Festival of Easter the altar of st. Peters Cathedral looked beautiful with its lovely rich frontals and furnishings. flowers and Euchariitlc and other lights.

At the seven and 8 o'clock ser- vices la‘_.- numbers made their Easter Communion. The 11 o'clock service was preceded by U19 sins- ing in procession of the hymn “Come Ye Faithful, Raise the Btrii.in," which was followed by it choral celebration of the Holy Eucharist. The Rev. Canon Banks preached a splendid aild most in- structive sermon on the Resurrect- ion. A very large congregation was present at this service—perhaps the largest for some years past.

At Evenscng. Canon Banks took as his text the 3rd ver.e of the 1st Chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, and preached 5111’ mid Eastcr.message. At close of the service hymn no. 188 was sung in procession, after which Prii:-.t and choir gathered about the Altar and sang a sol- emn Te Deum. The music of botii services was of high order.

On Sunday evening next the Lord Bishop of the Diocese will administer tllc Sacrament of Con- firmation in St 'Peters Cathedral at '1 o'clock.

ST. PAUL'S CHURCH

Easter day services at St. Paul's Church were bright with stirring music and hearty congregational worship.

As usual on Easter day there were large numbzrs at the com- munion scrvices at 8 and 11. and following the evening service. At ll o'clock the morning service was broadcast over CFCY. The choir sang delightfully the antllcins "Christ Our Passover," I-Iiimphrcys. aild "Rejoice ill the Lord" by Sir

George Martin.

The rector's Sr‘I’l'lll0ll \\'hs from

the text "Fear not ye for I know that ye seek Jesus."

He depicted graphically the scene on the first Easter morning, when

the women on coming to the tomb found the resurrection had taken place. The speaker remarked that they had come looking for death

and had found life. Instead of it

crucified dead man there was a living Savior, crucified indeed, but all the more a. savior because’ of that. They came to pay their last tributes of respect to their friend. They found themselves bearers of wonderful tidings as they hastened to tell His discples. "Good news" was the name for the whole Gospel in the language in which it was written. They came in utter dc- spair, they went in ecstacles of joy. They came convinced that death ends all, they found that death is the gateway of himself the corn of wheat "cast into the ground to die, which would bear much fruit. “We as christian people are seekers for Jesus in all our worship of pi‘a.yC'.‘, praise and sacrament." the speaker said, and continued. had been ‘He is not here.’ but we are not looking for Him in the tomb. He was the same Jesus who said ‘suffer the little children to come unto Me.’ aild He says it still The same Jesus bids us"come unto Me all ye who labor and are heavy laden.’ and His parting promise was ‘Lo I am with you always. even unto the end of the world.’ To the women the message was ‘He is not here. He is risen, go and tell the disciples.’ The messase entrusted to

"To them the answer

us is not for disciples only but ‘go

ye into all the world and preach the izospel to every Crcalure."‘

In the afternoon Sunday School

service was conducted by Messrs. George Hart and William Trainor.

Awards for scripture memor-

ization were presented to boys and girls who had completed the course. Tile rector spoke of the first day

of the week as the lords Day and traced the custom of Sunday keep- ing. which has replaced the Jewish Sabbath. The Lord's day became

quickly the most sacred day in the Christian Church.

At the evening service Mr. Percy My

Jesus was more thiln a great man, He was the true son of God in a way which no other man could claim to be.

Jesus by conquering death and the grave proved His deity. and He in His teaching and in His resur- rection showed the promise of a life eterilnl.

“If we believe in the resurrec- tion." snld the minister. "then we should have new aims, new objects in lifc. As in the words of the text we should seek the things that are above, find, as Paul would have us, press on to the high calling whicll is found in Christ Jesus."

“Christian living," Dr. Legato stated, "is the biggest thing in the program of life that this world has ever known. Christian living is e. resurrection from the dead, and we should be raised in Christianity from all that is low, and merely inatecial. and commonplace.“

As special music for the evening service it duet, "Love Divine." Staiiier, Wils sung by Mrs. J. A. Lawson and Mrs. H. S. Henderson. The choir also sang “Rejoice Ye ill the Lord," Elvcy, as an offertory. At both services the choir sang Handel's “Father in Heaven" as a response following the Benedic- iions. G.

ST. DUNSTAN'S BASILICA

Yesterday was Holy Name slin- day at" St. Dunstan's Basilica. Large numbers received Holy Coni- munion. Pontifical High Mass was celebrated by His Excellency Bish- op O‘Sullivail at 11 o'clock. Rev. Thomas McMahon, C.S.P., preached an inspiring sermon on “The Vic- tory Ovcr Dcnth."

In the evening at 7 o'clock Rev. Thomas McMahon, C.S.P., preach- ed the farewell sermon in the lcnten series. He took as his sub- ject “The Beauties and Blessings of Catholicism." Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament was given by Rcv_ Dr. McMahon, rector of St. Dunstan‘s Basilica.

THE BAPTIST CHURCH

A large coiigregntioil was present at the Baptist Church yesterday morning when the Rev, F‘. ii’. Bishop spoke on the text 2nd, Timothy 1:10, “But is now nlade manifest by the flppejfiflllg of our Saviour Jesus Christ. who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.“

This has been called Easter's audacious claim, the speaker said. Jesus brought to light a. life which is immortal but this is what we might expect for man, considering man's nature and possibilities. Man desires to live and we would not ex- ilect God to disappoint him. Im- mortality is a suitable ‘climax to man‘s greatness especially when that greatness has been developed and enhanced by the gospel. Pu;-. ther. man does not reach maturity here and we can expect future de. Velopments. "We are here in our extreme youth. never to be men and women grown in this world."
