liable Houston Homejournal added
to our exchange list.

T HE word Easter means the goddess
of Love, or, .Venus of the North,
in honor of whom a festival was cele
brated by our pagan ancestors in April.
Rome authorities say that Easter means
the Goddess of Spring; but the more
correct meaning of Easter is a feast or
festival.
Over a hundred years ago the cur
rent meaning of the word Easter was a
feast of any kind—we And this word
appears once in the King James trans
lation of the Bible, but it does not ap
pear In the revised edition at all,.,
In recent years some religious de-
Bome he added another month,* which
was named after him, ‘‘July,” from
Julius; this completed our Gregorian
calendar. If we compute the time
from the period when ten months and
eleven months made a full year until
the twelfth month made a year fre will
find that about three years were lost,
bnt as all the dates of official docu
ments in the archives of the nations
were wrong, by universal consent they
have remained uncorrected, so we are
left to gness at the annual date of the
resurrection of our Lord.

quire a great stretch of the imagina

willing to change the meaning of Easter
from its mythological and heathen
feast to a religious observance in
