It is always "a;T pleasure to the editors of this7 newspaper to devote space'to questions submitted by intelligent boys ancl girls and to give them .the "correct •■'answers. Many of The Sun's warmestY admirers are to be found among the young people in what is known, as "The Sun's territory,'' and the edittfrs consider it a high compliment to be known as the ;friends of such bright boys .and girls: . . '-■• . .7 ;. As Known! Elsewhere - Good Friday is observed in memory of the Crucifixion, as Easter Sunday is observed in memory of the Resurrection. Good Friday is the'saddest? day ih the year for millions of Christians, and "Easter Sunday will, be the most joyful. Good Friday—"The Holy and Great Friday"'in, the Greek. "Holy Friday" in the Romance languages. "Sorrowfuli Friday" in the .German. "Long Friday" among-. the Anglo- Saxons and Danes. . Some Bible students say" the original spelling probably was "God's Friday," rather than Good Friday. Some ■historians have reckoned "that the actual, date, of the Crucifixion was Fri-- day,.-'April. 3, in the year-33 of the Christian era. Others reckon the date as having heen April 7 in the'year A:D". 30. ■i:' • '*" - y yy^-:.k ■ 'Observance of the event, "however, varies from year to yearj depending on the time of the first full moon of Spring and not on a fixted date'in the calendar. This shifting of'dates of Good ^Friday and Easter in accordance withYthe moon's changes is a survival of a 7 custom prevailing among the early Christians. It was formally approved .by the Council of Nice in the fourth century. It will no dpubtj interest our young friend to Iknow that sbnje years ago bill was introduced int6 the English arliament to the effect that Easter should-always be observed on the second ,'Snnday in April. t is argued*.that this would bring the\ annual observance on the date nearest to the true anniversary of the events which are being celebrated. A committee of the League of Nations ■took Vip the subject in 1923. And in 1928 tJiie English Parliament (A body like our Congress) .passed a law fixing "the first Sunday' after the second Saturday in April" as ..the date of Easter for future years; the change not to ta*ke "effect -until after other nations agree to it—and the other nations have not accepted the idea yet. DR. IISETOIPEAK Will Address Ygchool Assembly On Friday Afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.

Standing hack of the ferns and overlooking the entire display are' two life-size Brownies who. are grinning at the onlookers, and who appear to have just stepped out from the pages of the fairy books'; A tiny lake, with a little bridge, beds of Easter flowers, and "four little,fairies with their wands complete the scene.

Covered Wagon Days .The adult department was especially arranged last week and, this for those readers who care more for the story of days gone by, rather than some of the modern fiction. Miniature covered wagons carried the titles of some.of the older and better books, while displays and collections were made of the different type western stories. Zane Grey's collection is accompanied by his photograph which is autographed. ; Easter Reading , A nice collection; of religious books are pn display for those whose trend of reading is ■ along that line during this season.

' HlSTifSKEYcHES SONGS OF GLADNESS ON EASTER MORNING "ON THEIR HIND LEGS That is what the top sergeant says about the raw1 recruits after a few days of outdoor exercise and training in a C. M. T. C. citizenship school: When most of the young men arrive they straggle around, leaning on one foot, with one elbow resting in air. They soon snap out of it, however, and stand on their ''hind legs," look one squarely in the eye, and generally have that smart "front" that gets a person somewhere in daily life these days. The American Legion throughout the country sponsors the-Citizens' Military Training Camps because they teach young men the principles of good government, healthful living and obedience to law! All Churches In the . Territory . Served By The Sun Expect, As In Former Years, Crowded Auditoriums — High-Class Music Dominant Feature. CHOIR LEADERS ACTIVE -.... _''ti__.. y Easter Sunday church" services in North Canton and the district served by The Sun always attract numerous congregations, and if the day is clear in this section of Stark county the churches will be packed to the doors. Going to church on Sunday is a fixed habit with the people, but on Easter Sunday everyone goes to at least one service. That is an ironclad rule of years' standing. Following their usual custom, the pastors and choir leaders extend the musical programs, and "Joyous Easter" comes into its own. This year elaborate preparations have been made and full choirs will be assisted, in several instances, by singers of note belonging to churches in the cities. . Below will be found the news furnished The Sun by the pastors, and readers will perceive that the day Will i be honored in songs of gladness. o An artistic booklet reached The Sun this week. It is issued by The Citizens Building and Loan company and on the cover appear the lines: Another Milestone of "The Citizens'." An excellent picture of the company's new two full-story building on the Square in North Canton, graces the page and the 'caption reminds you that it is "A Friendly Institution." A Useful Map A two-page map, in colors, shows the large territory served by The Citizens Building and Loan company from Canton and the North Canton office. The map is the best this writer for The Sun. has stfen of Stark county and the counties bordering it north and south. It is well worth preserving as a guide, and we believe it will be by the public. Pictures of the interior of the new home and of the . large vault are shown, also a brief history of The "Citizens" since its organization on February 10, 1899, on the southwest corner of Third, and Cleveland avenue SW., Canton. The main office on the Square in Canton occupies a page. ■ North Canton Officials Among,- the interesting features is a picture of Ralph Young, manager of the North Canton branch of The Citizens. His superiors pay a well deserved tribute to the industry, integrity and general all-round usefulness of Mr' Young, and the praise will be fully endorsed by hundreds of men and women who transact business with Ralph. Mr. Young's Assistant Mr. Young's assistant, Miss Mary Patterson, receives a choice bouquet alongside of her picture, and readers are reminded that "her.pleasant word, of greeting,, he^ch-erfi'ilness'(ind will- ingiiass t6»'db'i$0<&,^Ui;'!ijs' "pi/ssjble- itt. the accommodation of patrons of The "Citizens" will prove a real welcome." No one will find fault with the above statement. Miss Mary Patterson is a big asset to an institution, and like Mr. Young, her one ambition is to serve the public faithfully. Picture of the "Squire" Any reference to The Citizens- Building and Loan company without mention of its original guiding spirit, "Squire" William Wagner, would be like omitting dates in a work dealing: with history. The compiler of this interesting booklet realized this and. as a result he gives us an excellent likeness of the genial Squire and a brief sketch of the man who first saw the immense good he could be to tha public if he could put his high ideals into a working unit. William Wagner's name is enshrined in the hearts of the people of Stark and his sage advice is still the SPRING SPRINGS . county, I guiding star for The "Citizens" pres- j ent president and its able board o£ Community Christian Church j directors.

No matter what tlie weatherman may predict, signs of spring are everywhere to be seen in northern Stark county. Not buds, blossoms or singing .birds (although there may be here and there some evidence of Spring's approach in these early manifestations of nature), but in the condition of yards. Piles of brush are seen, yards have been raked, and everywhere is evidence that .house cleaning has begun and that northern Stark county will be as much a place .of beauty this year as always.

Maunder, an English composer, "Olivet to Calvary." The latter part of the program is complimented with a number by John Prindle Scott and an adaptation of an old church hymn tune, "Allelulia." Continental Program A Sunday morning musical service is a departure from the usual order among churches which have two services. Usually special cantatas and oratorios are given in the afternoon or evening. A large audience is anticipated on- account of the Easter period and' sterling character of the music. The first two parts of the program are taken entirely from "Olivet to Calvary." This production barely- missed being catalogued as an oratorio. Perhaps its brevity was the cause. The number has all the dramatics of oratorio composition, happily combining the melodies in it's construction. These two parts recall simply and1 reverently tho scenes which mark the ! last {ew, days of the Saviour's life on earth, and some of the reflections sug-, gested.s i Triumphal Entry j -Tho introduction describes the re-; joicing of the multitude with hosanivas ; and palms, the view of Jerusalem from [ the steep of Olivet, the lament over the beautiful city, the scene in the Temple,.and tho lonely walk back over the Mount at night, form the chief features. . The Passion The second part opened with the Supper "of the Passover, at which Jesus washes His .disciples' feet. Here He gives to His friends the new commandment of love of one another as tho sign of Uuc discipleship.

The Present President W. Paul Wagner, son of the Squire, started his training in The "Citizens"' 29 years ago. Today he is the president, and so highly did the Ohio Building and Loan League regard the modest young man that they made him president of the League. It con- i tains more tlian 800 building and loan | companies and the amount of money it j handles yearly would cause even Roth- I schilds to make a low bow to it. i Officers and Directors The officers and directors are merr -of the highest standing. William Feller is vice-president; Lester H. Hig- gins is secretary; Hayes R. Putman is assistant secretary; W. H. Smith ■and John T. Blake are the attorneys. The directors are: Harry Ross Jones, William Feller, John T, Blake, O. W. Renkert; W. Paul Wagner, W. H. Smith, John L. Arnold, Paul B- Belden, Edward-Williams. Mr. Jones is chairman of the board. A Faithful Institution . For thirty-two years The "Citizens""- Building and Loan company has serv-*- ed faithfully and well tho public of Stark county. Its founders were proud of its reputation, and J. B. Brothers, its sterling president until his death in 1926, assisted in guiding- the company in safe waters. His successor, W. Paul Wagner, and his advisors, are steering a similar course^— a course far removed from the shallow waters. With such men at the helm, passengers and cargo are safe.

■ 'Observance of the event, "however,
varies from year to yearj depending
on the time of the first full moon of
Spring and not on a fixted date'in the
calendar. This shifting of'dates of
Good ^Friday and Easter in accordance withYthe moon's changes is a
survival of a 7 custom prevailing
among the early Christians. It was
formally approved .by the Council of
Nice in the fourth century.
It will no dpubtj interest our young
friend to Iknow that sbnje years ago
bill was introduced int6 the English
arliament to the effect that Easter
should-always be observed on the second ,'Snnday in April.
t is argued*.that this would bring
the\ annual observance on the date
nearest to the true anniversary of the
events which are being celebrated. A
committee of the League of Nations
■took Vip the subject in 1923. And in
1928 tJiie English Parliament (A body
like our Congress) .passed a law fixing "the first Sunday' after the second Saturday in April" as ..the date
of Easter for future years; the
change not to ta*ke "effect -until after
other nations agree to it—and the
other nations have not accepted the
idea yet.

SONGS OF GLADNESS
ON EASTER MORNING
"ON THEIR HIND LEGS
That is what the top sergeant says
about the raw1 recruits after a few
days of outdoor exercise and training in a C. M. T. C. citizenship school:
When most of the young men arrive
they straggle around, leaning on one
foot, with one elbow resting in air.
They soon snap out of it, however,
and stand on their ''hind legs," look
one squarely in the eye, and generally
have that smart "front" that gets a
person somewhere in daily life these
days. The American Legion throughout the country sponsors the-Citizens'
Military Training Camps because they
teach young men the principles of
good government, healthful living and
obedience to law!

CHOIR LEADERS ACTIVE
-.... _''ti__.. y
Easter Sunday church" services in
North Canton and the district served by The Sun always attract numerous congregations, and if the day is
clear in this section of Stark county
the churches will be packed to the
doors. Going to church on Sunday is
a fixed habit with the people, but on
Easter Sunday everyone goes to at
least one service. That is an ironclad rule of years' standing.
Following their usual custom, the
pastors and choir leaders extend the
musical programs, and "Joyous Easter" comes into its own. This year
elaborate preparations have been
made and full choirs will be assisted,
in several instances, by singers of
note belonging to churches in the
cities. .
Below will be found the news furnished The Sun by the pastors, and
readers will perceive that the day Will i
be honored in songs of gladness.
o
An artistic booklet reached The
Sun this week. It is issued by The
Citizens Building and Loan company
and on the cover appear the lines:
Another Milestone of "The Citizens'."
An excellent picture of the company's
new two full-story building on the
Square in North Canton, graces the
page and the 'caption reminds you
that it is "A Friendly Institution."
A Useful Map
A two-page map, in colors, shows
the large territory served by The
Citizens Building and Loan company
from Canton and the North Canton
office. The map is the best this writer
for The Sun. has stfen of Stark county
and the counties bordering it north
and south. It is well worth preserving as a guide, and we believe it will
be by the public.
Pictures of the interior of the new
home and of the . large vault are
shown, also a brief history of The
"Citizens" since its organization on
February 10, 1899, on the southwest
corner of Third, and Cleveland avenue
SW., Canton. The main office on the
Square in Canton occupies a page. ■
North Canton Officials
Among,- the interesting features is
a picture of Ralph Young, manager of
the North Canton branch of The
Citizens. His superiors pay a well
deserved tribute to the industry, integrity and general all-round usefulness of Mr' Young, and the praise
will be fully endorsed by hundreds
of men and women who transact
business with Ralph.
Mr. Young's Assistant
Mr. Young's assistant, Miss Mary
Patterson, receives a choice bouquet
alongside of her picture, and readers
are reminded that "her.pleasant word,
of greeting,, he^ch-erfi'ilness'(ind will-
ingiiass t6»'db'i$0<&,^Ui;'!ijs' "pi/ssjble- itt.
the accommodation of patrons of The
"Citizens" will prove a real welcome."
No one will find fault with the
above statement. Miss Mary Patterson is a big asset to an institution,
and like Mr. Young, her one ambition
is to serve the public faithfully.
Picture of the "Squire"
Any reference to The Citizens-
Building and Loan company without
mention of its original guiding spirit,
"Squire" William Wagner, would be
like omitting dates in a work dealing:
with history. The compiler of this
interesting booklet realized this and.
as a result he gives us an excellent
likeness of the genial Squire and a
brief sketch of the man who first saw
the immense good he could be to tha
public if he could put his high ideals
into a working unit.
William Wagner's name is enshrined in the hearts of the people of Stark
and his sage advice is still the

'Home-
"Signs of Spring?" No matter
what tlie weatherman may predict,
signs of spring are everywhere to be
seen in northern Stark county.
Not buds, blossoms or singing .birds
(although there may be here and
there some evidence of Spring's approach in these early manifestations
of nature), but in the condition of
yards.
Piles of brush are seen, yards have
been raked, and everywhere is evidence that .house cleaning has begun
and that northern Stark county will
be as much a place .of beauty this
year as always.
