Curious to know how often the late date of Easter occurs in the Calen- dar, I wrote to the David Dunlop Ob- servatory, at Richmond Hill, Ont., and received some very interesting in- formation, and supposing some other people might be interested, ,I attach the information. "The Faster date limits are March 22nd to April 25th, inclusive, so East- er this year occurs at the latest date possible." "Taking the interval from 1800 to 2390 the years in which. Easter falls on April 25th are as •follows" "1886, 1943, 2038, 2190, 2258, 2326." We are informed by Astronomers, that so perfect is the revolution of our earth, that it • has not varied one second in 2000 years. Surely these Iezfect moventients reveal the mighty hand of God the creator and controller of the Uni- verse, Surely David was correct when he said "The Heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth His handiwork."'
