These are the opening words of an ancient Easter hymn, composed in the sixth century They express fervently the joy that is in our hearts at Eastertide. AU over the world today their meaning is uttered by millions who never heard the ancient hymn but who know the ancient truth that "Christ Is Risen From the Dead and Become the First-Fmits of Them That Slept." Many customs of ancient times are clustered together in our celebration of the glorious Christian Festival of Easter. We are not wise if we despise them. We are foolish if we think these customs "explain" Easter. Nothing ex plains Easter but the glorious fact that Christ Is Risen; 4 hat Death had not dominion over Him; that He is alive forever. The Christian religion is more than a state ment of past occurrence. Christ lived and wrought and suffered ' and died at a certain definite time, within a certain defined geograph ical area. The memory of Him can never fade any more than the memory of Washington or Lincoln can fade from the American memory. But more wonderfully does Christ, the Living Christ, work in the hearts and minds of men; never absent from them, in every part of the globe, turning them to God, inviting them into the pathway of His will, inciting within them the passion of His Eternal Kingdom. Therefore, though we live in a dark and cruel day, we will not be downcast. He is the author and the perfector of our faith. We have not believed "an old wives' tale;" we have believed the Truth. He came, the Son of God, to redeem us and to present us acceptable unto God; His labors do not tarry. There is no moment of time when He is not reaching out and bringing the souls of men unto Himself and the day comes when "every tongue shall confess that He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and of .His. Kingdom there shall be no ' end." - The War Today : By DeWTTT MacKENZIE . Associated Press War Analyst SINCE the suggestion here yesterday that V-E day be made a day of dedication to completion of the '.war against brutality and aggression rather than a mere celebration of another victory along the road, I have received through James L. Muhoney of the Manchester, N. H., Leader, the .following statement by Gov. Charles M. Dale of New Hampshire: "There are two ways our people can observe the collapse of German resistance in Europe. First, visit the churches and give thanks to God for guiding our lenders and men, and second, by buying war bonds with which to purchase arms and ammunition to detent Japan and complete the job." V-E Day Speculation THE question of how V-E day will arrive in Europe that is, the manner in which Germany will capitulate is quite as much a matter of speculation as is the question of when it will arrive. The way things are going there may be no formal surrender of the reich as an entity. The country is being so carved to pieces by the numerous allied drives that there may be no central authority, cither military or civil, to speak for the nation. , In short, as Intimated by Gen. Eisenhower, surrender may be imposed on Germany peace meal by the western allies and the Russians as we overrun the country. That being so, the time will arrive when Elsenhower and the soviet command will get their heads together and say: "Well, all resistance that's worth a tinker's dam has been knocked out. Let's call it V-E day." That's the way observers generally view the situation now. Of course the Hitlerite regime or what's left of it might suddenly decide to throw up the sponge. However, that would be one of the major surprises of the war, since an allied sentence of liquidation hangs over Herr Hitler and his bloody-handed captains, and they aren't likely to put the noose about their own necks. On the contrary they have well defined schemes which gradually are be coming known. a a a a Ruins Ahead NATURALLY this continued hopeless resist ance by military and civilians is reducing the country to ruins, and plunging the German people into greater depths of despair. Fantastic as it may seem, this is exactly what the nazi leaders want. But let me give you a view of this in the words of the British official mili tary expert Veritas who has excellent sources of information: 'The nazi leaders are fully prepared to see every German township turned into rubble and general holocaust. It is quite logical. The resulting chaos and starvation will be an allied burden. When anarchy reigns supreme in Eu rope, the twilight of the nazi gods gotterdam merung will be followed by a resurrection not necessarily the resurrection of the German reich in the first instance, but of the nazi idea to which the tortured peoples of Europe will turn (the nazis calculate) in their horror of 'bolshevism' and in their contempt and distrust of Anglo-American democracy which has failed then." Veritas says that when the German leaders speak of confidence In final victory, they're not thinking of military victory but are plan ning 10 or 15 years ahead, to the restoration of nazism. However, this grandiose program is doomed to failure, as I see it, because the allies are fore-warned and thus are fore-armed. The roots of nazism will be burned from the earth. SIDE GLANCES JCTTfl "When we get a nice, shiny, spring day like this I still imagine I can see mm uying noma uinjuSu tuuov w clouds 1" Occasional Sky Reviews Helpful, Says Astronomer i By HUGH PRUETT Astronomer, General Extension Division, Univ. of Ore. That occasional sky reviews are desirable and helpful, and that information on the identity and location of the more conspic uous stars may definitely be ex plained, in print without the use of star maps, is indicated in let ters from readers of this column. Some who are inexperienced in the use of star maps consider them more confusing than help ful. But whatever the method of instruction, a desire to know and a willingness to observe will always and easily bring grati fying results. ' During the next few days let us observe the sky around 9 p. m. We shall attempt to point out all the brighter stars and planets. Somewhat north of west and quite low. Venue, which for months has been so conspicu ous, is still exceedingly brilliant. Earlier twilight observations will find it much higher. Within the next two weeks this splendid planet will disappear entirely from the western evening sky for the remainder of this year. Nearly due west and well up in the sky the V-shaped forma tion known at The Hyades is easily spotted. All its stars are small with the exception of Aldebaran at the top of the left branch of the V. Somewhat north of The Hyades. the tiny, compact cluster of six little stars, The Pleiades, adds charm to the evening. Some keen eyes see seven stars in the group or even more. Tracing down from the over head point a short distance west northwest, we easily find bright Cape la. Beside this star are three- 'i'-'-.itars in an elongated trhy" jM-e Kids, f Let us trnct again from the overhead pclnt but go southwest. We soon encounter standing side by 1 side two stars, the heavenly twins. The yellow one on the right is Castor; the or ange and slightly brighter one is his brother Pollux. Somewhat lower we pass a still brighter object which does not twinkle. This is the planet Saturn. Between Saturn and the south western horizon, but well up the sky, the large, prominent con stellation of Orion attracts in stant attention. Highest is red dish Betelgouse in Orion's shoulder; much lower, gleaming blue-white Rigel in his upraised foot. Between these, a short line of three equally-spaced stars out line the belt of Orion. . Not high and a little west of south brilliant Sirius, the dog star, sparkles. Above, higher, and more eastward than Sirius, we find bright Procyon. Well up in the southeast the planet Jupiter is gorgeous. High er and more to the west, Regu lus appears at the end of the handle of the Sickle. Between the east and southeast, Spica twinkles not far above the hori zon. Quite high in the sky some what north of due east, orange Arcturus flashes at the right end of the star group forming a hori zontal kite. Democratic Club To Hold Meeting The Democratic club will meet next Wednesday, April 4th, in the City Library club room, at 8 p. m. Henry Semon, state repre sentative, will give an explana tion of the June special elec tion on the school measure, passed by the last legislature and Lamar Townscnd, local at torney, will talk on the Dum barton Oaks conference.

The Principal Witness They say that Christ's body was burled in a rocky tomb And it was scaled against the day of doom. They tell that An angel came and tore the door away: Hence, the empty tomb on Resurrection Day. They claim that lie arose and showed himself alive to men And did aarend to heaven tho first of thorn. None of these I know: I will not say; I was not there to see; And yet, a stronger witness I can bo. This one tiling I know And testify: Ho is risen In me; No better evidence can ever be. Mombert of tho First Christian Church of Klam ath Falls express tha wish that evory citizen of our city and community will bo ablo to attend worship ser vices on this Resurrection Day.
