Banquet Is Thursday Father and sons'a banquet Is to be conducted at the First Methodist church on Thurs day evening, as originally announced drla, the then home cf astronomical science, and the noman pontiff was to communicate the date to the tthurches. This arrangement fixed date of Easter Sunday as the Sunday "following the 14th day of the pas chal moon," and defined the paschal moon as "the moon whose 14th day followed the spring equinox." But this ruling did not settle all difficul ties. The third pftsza of the contro versy arose from the divergent cal endars and cycles In vogue In the eastern and western church centers. St. Augustine tells us that in the year 387 the churches of Gaul kept Easter Sunday on March 31, those "Cat and Fiddle" Starts Tomorrow That Easter Sunday Is what Is known In ecclesiastical circles as a "movable feast," falling now upon of Italy on April 18. while tMe Egyp one calendar date and again upon tlan Christians celebrated Apirt 25 another, yet always at present upon ; as Easter day.

Somet h lng of mystery, how ever, attaches to this chronological paradox that now and then per plexes the curious and the Inquisi torial, declares a writer In the Kan sas City Star. The time of the Crucifixion Is fixed as coincident with the Jewish pass over, or paschal feast, in the Jewish calendar mouth "Nisan," the month of the vernal equinox. The first ob scurity In regard to the day arose from the Christian Gospels them selves. The Synoptic Gospels seemed to favor the day as the 15th of Ni san, that of St. John, the 14th. This The banquet is scheduled for 6:30, established, by the preponderance of o'clock, and a smalt charge per plate will be made. Policy Files Report Joe Policy of Jacksonville this morning filed an accident report with city police, as the result of his automobile going over an embankment on the Apple gate highway. Polley stated that he "had to drive on the left side of the road to miss hitting a truck head on." Dog Is Lost E. M.

I With the adoption of the Metonic cycle as a guide, the formula- for fix ing the Easter date was determined I as "the first Sunday which occurs after the first full moon, or, more accurately, the first 14th day of the moon, following the 21st of March, w.hlch Is the vernal equinox.

According to Mat- tnew, tne resurrection occurred "in officers, were me ena oi tne saDDRtn, as it negan to dawn toward the first day of the week." Ecclesiastical history preserves three distinct phases relating to the sub sequent commemorative day which came to be known as Easter. Al-1 though the observance of Easter was at a very early period the practice of the Christian church, a serious difference as to the day for Its ob servance arose between the Christians of Jewish and of Gentile descent. With the Jewish Christians, who as sociated the deatn of Christ with the sacrifice of the Paschal Lamb at the Passover, which ended "on the 14t,h day of the moon at evening." the j Easter festival followed the paschal ' tradition, no matter what day of the lunar month it chanced to fall upon, i The Gentile Christians, on the other hand, followed the Synoptic Gospels. ! identified the first day of the week.: Sunday, as the day of Resurrection, : and kept the preceding Friday as the 1 anniversary of the Crucifixion. This was the pha-se of the controversy that characterized the first centuries of Christianity. The second stage in the Easter con troversy centers around the Council of Nice. A. D. 325, where eo many doctrinal points were given authen tic sanction. This council was sum moned by Emperor Constantine. The decision of the council was that Eas ter was to be kept on Sunday throughout the Uirlstian world. It was at this point that astronomical science entered Into the controversy.
