On Easter Sunday, the din ner menu from Manager Henry C.

The feast of Christ's resurrection from the dead. With that res urrection there came into the world a new set of values. "Whereas, before, power, pride, covetousness, revenge, material wealth and bodily strength were some measures of a man's dignity, Christ in His teaching went contrary to all that was held dear and taught obedience, humility, forgiveness, poverty and spir itual strentgh. If ever men gained stature in . this, our world, that stature was gain ed when Christ rose from the dead on the third day after His crucifixion. ' "It is my hope that those of us who are privileged to serve those who served will be permeated with the spirit of 'good living' and 'honest serving,' the spirit engender ed by those holy days." The members enjoyed not only the Easter message, but a special Eastern dinner as well, which consisted of fried spring chicken, gravy, mashed potatoes, buttered frozen peas or buttered broccoli, easter salad, hot roll and butter, Strawberry ice cream, coffee, cream or milk.
