EASTER,
The recurrence of the anneal Easter
season invariably awakes in the
thoughtful mind thoughts of the im-
portant events that should be—and are
intended to be—commemorated by
Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
The crucifixion and resurrection of
our Lord are facts ineffaceably stamp-
ed upon history's pages, but their chief
valve lies in their bearing upon man's
present and eternal welfare. To some
Easter means nothing more than in-
dulgence of the appetite and the over-
loading of the stomach with an un-
usual number of eggs. To others the
memories connected with the day are
far too sacred to allow it to pass em-
phasized by appetite indulgences.
Instead of a lengthy editorial on the
Easter season, we append the follow-
ing selection :—
C Lamb of God, once wounded,
With grief and pain weighed down,
Thy seeped bead surrounded
With"['horns, thine only crown!
O Lamb of God, what glory,
What bliss, till now was thine;
Yet, though despised and gory, .
I joy to call thee intee.
'
What thou. myI..lf�. lxts t suffered
Was all for slum t '4.
Mine, Irvine was the rettefe'eesiou,
But thine the deedlysgeettreae
Lo, here I fall, my Sit104.11;;S
'Tis I deserve thy telaW• f
Look on me with thy f ireer,'-
Vouchsafe to me thy grace.
What language shall I borrow
To praise thee, dearest Friend,
For this, thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end ?
0 make me thine for ever;
And should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never,
Outlive my love for thee.

shareholders, The high price of cattle

have found it more profitable to turn
their milk in other directions than
cheese making. Wm. Wray and Wal-

T a. Goderich.
The Advance understands that Mr,
E. L. Dickinson has entered into a
partnership with a son of Judge Gar.
row's and expects at an early date to
remove to Goderich. Mr. Dickinson is
too good a citizen to lose, bttt we pre-
sume the county town has attractions
for the legal profession that Wingham
has not. Mr. Dickinson's frieuds,while
regretting his intended removal, hope
that the change will be to his advan-
tage, from a business standpoint.
School Board.
A special meeting of the School
Board was held on Tuesday evening to

room for the successful prosecution of
the Continuation classes. There were
nineteen applications, Miss Cummings
s
of Eml>ro, daughter of James Cum-
mings, of town was the first choice,
and Miss Buddy of Owen Sound second
choice of the Board, The former was
communicated with by telephone, and
accepted, duties to commence after
