He spoke of His own plan for curry-
ing on. He did not violate the very laws
which he gave the world. Life is something
graeter than the body which is the vehicle
through which it expresses itself in deeds.
To plane stones and soldiers at the
mouth of the tomb of the Giver of Life is
like children placing straw in front of the
oncoming tide to hold it back.
“It was not, possible that the grave
should hold him,'’ was tin- word said of
such Person.

Can the acorn shell hold back the life
once the gram has been panted in the
ground? Can the container of the life in
the wheat kee'p it from rising and produc-
ing additional wheat when the grain has
been planted?
All life today as it struggles upward to
express its own individuality is an analo-
gy of what came to pass that early morn-
ing in the garden of the Resurrection.
“Come see the place where He lay.”
That empty tomb is the assurance given
that He has gone to prepare a place for
those who love Him and keep His com-
mandments.

The Empty (Tomb and the

“He is not here, He is risen.”
if hat word spoken by the angels that
early morning to the women who came
to the tomb to do the last rites l'or a buried
Lord, sounds the call triumphant to a dis
heartened group of followers of the Savi
our of the world and is the challange to
take a world for Him by the preaching of
a Gospel of the Risen Lord.
Why should He be in the grave?
You can’t bury truth.
And He is the truth.

Denison was grieved early Friday
morning on learning of the death of one of
its outstanding leaders and bankers, civic
worker and friend of all men when the
news came that Ford Seale, president of
the Citizens National bank had passed
away at Marlin where he had gone in his
last stand for life on this earth. Denison
will miss this noble man and friend. His
children left motherless some few years
back will miss him more than ail. Mr.
Seale was, one of the men who tried to
really improve life in the deeper sense.
He studied how to use his time to the
greatest benefit. One of his joys in life he
stated to this editor was tha of trying to
learn to live on the hours eaclt day brought
him, more than how to live on so many
dollars a week. That explains something
of the kind of man Mr Seale wanted to
be He now is free of the hindrance of the
world time and sense knows and is able to
a i rightly compute and evaluate life.
HITLER’S AID PLAN
Hitler has a plan of aid for
Germany, not so well publicized us
American aid for Britain but
nonethelesw highly effective in the
vassal states of the Reich, says the
Fort Worth Star-Telegram. The
plan nets Germany $4,200,000,000
annually for Hitler’s program ol
extending1 his< "new order” ovei
Europe.
FVuncc is Germany’s major
benefactor in being forced to paj
$3,308,000,000 in tribute each
year to her conqueror. Tim wutai is
listed as expensci money for fi
nancing the Nazi army of occti
pation in Northern France A
recent collection was the German
requisition of over a million
pounds of poultry in unoccupie.i
France, which i, now urgent!)
asking for food supplies from
America. Other forced donors to
the Nazi cause and their tribute-
are: Norway, $272,01)0,000; Den
reported after German occupation
and their plight is admittedly ag-
gravated by the British blockade.
It is puerile to hold that the
plight of these afflicted serfs
would be alleviated by American
relief. They all are in »| perma-
nent state of appeasing Hitler by
forced donations of billions, to the |«
Nazi cause. Thus tribute would |
be continued after a Nazi 'victory i
over Britain. The only hope for j
relief of aggression’s victims in
Europe lies in their liberation b\ I
the defeat of Gerfnany.—McKiri-!

A New.paper Woman, Indeed
Denison has a newspaper wom-
an who came as near being born
and rocked, fed and slept in a
newspaper office as could be. ,
She has lived in Denison since the
early days and recalls vividlyj
runny of those interesting things j
which are associated with the
city and the newspaper business >
in particular. We refer to Dulce i
Murray, daughter of the late he- |
loved B. C. Murray who did so j
much in shaping”the early events !
in the city and who was editor of j
a paper known all over the coun- i
try. As an editor and lover of the |
fourth estate, he naturally h-inded |
this love for newspaper work
down to his daughter Dulce.
There are other children but she
was the one who took the business
of making a newspaper. Duire
is as proud of that father of hers
as a girl could be and she is fond
of talking about him and his ex-
perience in the newspaper field
in this city. Duke has plenty of
good talent and it should not he
permitted to go unused. And that
is something about which we hear
more in the future. i
Along the New* Beat
Saturday, today is the first of
the Passover. That is, the Chris- j
per. It is the central) object in
the worship program of tha
Christian today on the first day
of the week or the Lord’s day.
Easter day, the day of ressur-
ection, the day of breaking the
bread and partaking of the wine,

ship, offering and service. That is

given to the Jews, as their day, it
is noted by the Christians ns some
of the hallowed days of the Pas-
sion Week.
The Passover is a sign of bloody
days for the Jews. It was intro- j
duced at a time when Pharonh :
was piling persecution after p<)r- '
sedition on the Jews who were in
bondage in Egypt. Then came the
night for the doors to bp sprinkled
with blood as a sign for the death
angel that was to visit and pla-
gue Pharaoah to overlook that
blood sprinkled door. The result
was that the children of Israel
were permitted to leave the land
of slavery and start toward the
promised land. No wonder it is
an event long to tie remembered.
Blood is the price of everything
that is worth while. Without its
shedding there could have been no
remission of sins, whether we
understand what that means or
not or why it should be. Every
mother who bathes her feet in
the river of death to bring a child
In the world knows that it is
true that suffering unto bloon is
what gives life.
