Cartai won ttje mrtnry.” Execration of Judas Marks Mexican Easter Easter throughout Mexico ’s cele brated by the hanging of Judas. For two weeks before the end of Lent the shopa display hundreds of quaint fig ures ranging In size and prtce from a little toy a couple of Inches long and costing only 1 cent to an eight-foot Image of the arch betrayer marked at 823. All are made Hllke, being con structed, with a light wooden frame work and pnpler mache head with a brightly painted complexion and bristling mop of coarse hair of rav eled rope-yarn dyed black. Sometimes Judas has a flowing beard, sometimes only fierce mustaches, but he is al ways made us repulsive as ¡»ossible, cross-eyed and beetle-browed, with huge outstanding ears and leering Ups. On the very small Judases the hirsute adornments are merely painted, but what cun he expected for only a cent? Judas Is always clothed in pupei gar ments of many colors, green predom inating. though why that particular hue should be associated with the crime of the ages is a mystery as great as the custom Itself. The more expen sive Judai dolls are filled with fire works that explode and make a great racket wh -n the match Is applied to the ettigy. Others are stuffed with candy, nut these are only hung in pri vate grounds where the purchaser and his friends can enjoy the sweets while watching Judas burn. Though the hated figure is destroyed In different ways it is always first hung with appropriate maledictions and Insults, and left to dangle in the breeze until nightfall, when It is either set fire to where It hangs, if it Is pos sible to do so without endangering property, or cut down and thrown on huge bonfires kindled for the purpose. Sometimes Judas is drugged through the streets by a rope attended by a singing, shouting mob of men and boys until nothing is left of the grotesque manikin but. a few scraps of torn paper. All day long, while It hangs from clothes lines, balconies, street signs, hitching posts or trees, Judas is stoned by every passing man, woman and child. Many broken win dows are the result, hut nobody com plains, because It is the proper thing to do. A Mexican would as soon for get to go to mass on Good Friday as to pass a Judas without pelting It with sticks, stones, chunks of mild, tin missile cans, empty bottles or nearest to his hand. VERNONIATRADING COMPANY 4 Nature's testimony Is the renewal of life; but we turn to another wit ness of man's immortality; no splendid I guess, sup|H«rte<l b.v the analogy of earth's reuewed energies, but the cer- . titude of the witness of History. The I church has kgpt the feast of connnem- 1 oration of the Resurrection of her Lord ever since the first Easter when |«the Angel of the Most High rolled back the stone from the rocky crypt of the Judean sepulcher. The church's holy festival is the evidence before men's eyes, objectively presented, not only a spiritual truth, hut a histor ically recorded event coming down through the long centuries, as dis I I tinctly proved as our keeping our na I tional birthday—not the sweet rea sonableness of faith, hut plain, visible fact, not to be gainsaid, witnessed to by the church concerning her Founder. Immortal life! This Is what the I victim of Calvary bestowed: through , the sharpness of death He opened the kingdom of Heaven to all believer«.— The Living Church. * for SPECIAL CARE WITH FURNITURE HAULING Phone 663 Re«- Phon«. 863 Vernonia, Oregon Dupont Explosives and Blasting Accessories Lime) Brick, Plaster, Cement Feed, Grain and Hay Job printing can be done in Ver- nonia an good aa any place in the «tate, at right prices.

NOTHING BETTER Hare-Pie Festival Every Easter sees s strange custom enacted at Hallaton. In Leicestershire, England, a custom which has con tinued for long decades. Thia Is wi.ut Is known as “the Hare-Pte Festival" There Is a procession formed wblcli. led-by a brass band, marches through the chief streets of the village to rhe church. Here, after a short service, the rector, assisted by two or tlires chosen officials, cuts up a large ha is pie which has been specially made fur the occasion. The pieces of pie are scrambled for down a steep bank iu the village known as Hare Bank, and It is considered a noteworthy feat ts secure the largest possible portion. Later on there Is feasting In the vil lage. and a stated quantity of ale has to be given to the villagers In accord ance with the traditions of the bars Vigorous Easter Dance There are many old-time English country dances more weird and won derful than the jazz. The coconut dancers of Rossendala, in Lancashire, celebrate the. anniver sary according to ancient custom by a dance the like of which Is to b« seen nowhere else on earth. They caper, they prance, they twist round and round like whirling der vishes. and perform many other star tling evolutions. Their costumes, too, are unique. They wear floral turbans, kilts; whtte'ktock Ings, and I embroidered fancy ddga. And attached to various parts -of their clothing are'boxwood cymbals made to reaettttMe coconlita, which strtkin'g' together cause a din that would make the most exacting of jazz band Conductors ehvlons. For real nourishment and food value per pound, Bacon is the leading meat, at least so food ex perts tell us. And when it is cured to a turn, sliced thin and served crisp, it is delicious. » •.
