Wherever there are Chrisitans in this sinful world there is great joy on Easter Day.

Hell and its price, the Devil, Now of their power are shorn, I now am safe from evil, And sin I laugh to scorn; Grim death with all his might Cannot my soul affright; He is a powerless form, However he rage and storm. with Paul they triumphantly exclaim: "Oh, death, where is thy sting? Oh, grave where is they vietory? Thanks be to God which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!" Yes, the vietory over those enemies who have held mankind captive ever since the day of Paradise when man ate of the forbidden fruit and had his eyes opened unto sin. The victory over sin, over Satan and all the powers of hell, it is written in letters never to be erased before the empty tomb of the Prince of Life.

But let us not only be shouting of victory. Let 118 live that new life which we ought to live if indeed we appreciate the vitcory. which has been won for us. not with gold or silver, but the holy precious blood. and with the innocent suffering and death of the only begotten Son of God.

And this newness of life consists in this, that we most conscientiously shun and avoid all those things which have the trademark of darkness.

If the voter desires to vote for one or more candidates whose name or names do not appear on the printed ballot he may do so by drawing a line through the printed name of candidate for such office, and writing below such cancelled name the name of the person for whom he desires to vote, and placing a cross (X) mark in the square at the left of such name. The squares so marked shall take precedence over the cross marked in the circle.
