Show PAST Kit. Tho landscape without is not remindful re-mindful of the resurrection; that is to say, of the return to life of dead nature. Snow covers tho mountains and slush lill tho streets. A raw atmosphere chills the human anatomy. The grass and leaves which, animated by tho sunny days in the earlier part of the month, began sprouting, and the violets vio-lets which raised their modest heads in the balmy air, shiver on their stems or hug the bosom of mother earth. Still, the storm is but transient. Iu this favored climate, where blizzards never rage ond tornadoes are a myth, bad weather is rarely protracted, and tomorrow the sun may dawn upon a cloudless eky and smilo at the multitude multi-tude of Christians as they wend their w ay to church to exult over the fact that the Lord had risen. Strange, how quick a transition takes place in Salt Lake. Only two weeks ago we doubted whether the dead past would ever bo buried and a new life spring up instead, and whether there would be an F'.asler resurrection after the long gloom of Lent. But it is here at last, and the glad tidings may go forth into all the country that a new light is kindled here, Thence diffuse His good to world'Vind as,'cs Infinite. Hail F2aster, the religious and tho symbolic; hail the resurrection and the life. |
