PAGE SIX Flowers Express Essential Feeling of Joyous Easter “The altar is snowy with blooms, The font is a vase of perfume; On pillar and chancel are twining Fresh garlands of eloquent hloom!" LL the churches are decorated A for the festival after Resur- rection; and the lily, emblem of purity, sweetness, and grace com- bined, is the favorite flower for deco- ration. Flowers voice the essential feeling of Easter. Each fragrant blossom Is the fulfillment of a divine promise. For the perennial miracle of an awak- ened earth is in full harmony with the aspiring note of religlon reiterating its faith in the promise of a new life. Flowers, like music, speak the lan- guage of the heart. They are capable of conveying the most personal and in- dividual ideals while yet appealing to a common universal vision and imagi- nation. This characteristic of flowers fits them especially both to express the private affections of the giver and en- rich the symbolism of the altar. A basket or & cross of flowers can say all the heart wishes to say and say It without obtruding personal feeling. In medleval times flowers spoke a definite language, the Interpretation of which seems almost lost for a season. The palm, the classical gymbol of victory, was early taken as the symbol of martyrdom. It was outllned on the tombs of the early martyrs, and it was placed in the hands of those who suf- fered in the cause of truth, to express thelr final victory over the powers of sin and death. Roses white and red voice Innocence and love. The Madonna was the “Rose of Sharon.” A wreath of roses is placed upon the brow of St. Cecllia, Roses and frult are borne by St. Doro- thea. A white anchor of camelias, with its top a cross, expresses faith and hope. The lily has long been regarded as expressive of purity. In Bermuda, the home of our Easter llly, all the roads are full of people, white and black, carrying lilies to the churches at dawn on Easter day. With them the door- ways, altars and pulpits are decorated, and the graves are completely covered. Each lily and each Easter flower thus bestowed is vocal, like one of those old litanies that have descended to us from time Iimmemorial, full of wholesome piety and charity—com- mon prayer to all devout souls. The flowers are of yet older birth than the anclent prayers—primeval litanies be- for ever musle was. Their eloquence Is growing on wus from year to year, as we bring roses, lilles and other Easter flowers to deck the altars of God, to hallow with their perfume and beauty the resting places of the departed and to dedicate our homes to Christ with our bright, sweet, sacred emblems. “Chris ! Ahm!l t(nl: ll;?:tnho‘filg'nlg:mr’\ell?; we utter, Archangels the paean re-ech And crown him with lilies of light!™ The Lilies’ Message 0, lilies, snow white lilles, 0. lilies, radiant, sweet, Ye are angels trooping earthward To kiss our Savior's feet. One Famous Easter Egg. The record in the size and cost of Easter eggs was broken by one given some time age to a famous Parisian actress by one of her admirers. On Easter morning an immense van rolled into the courtyard of the house in- habited by the actress, and on the van rested a gigantic egg made of wood and decked with velvet. At the first moment the astonished lady did not koow what to do with this amiable gift, but soon she noticed in the egg a door, and, upon opening it her eye fell upon a carriage with two fine horses and a coachman sitting motion- less on the box. AT THE THEATERS JEAN DAWN AT REX. Tomorrow Jean Dawn, known throughout America as the Wireless girl, will begin a week’s engagement at the Rex. She will appear in per- on in her famous psychic wonder act. It is an act that will startle, baffle and thrill you. Charlie will appear at the Rex tomorrow in a side splitting comedy, and ‘‘As the Sun Went Down,” a true mining camp photoplay, featuring Edith Storey, will also be shown. This story deals with the life of a woman who was an outcast of the settlement in which she lived, and whose associates were the lowest scum of the town. The names of these rough characters tell the story of their life and are char- acteristic of the days of the gold rush in the early fifties. There is Pizen Ike, Faro Bill, Piety Pete, Gin Mill Jack and the “Tarantula.” The heroine of the story is ‘‘Colonel Billy,” who is noted for her quick- ness and sureness with her gun. Sal Sue is another girl, and tue favorite saloon goes by the asthetic name of “The Miner’'s Paradise.” AT THE REX TODAY. “Romance and Arabella,” is shown at the Rex theatre today. This is Constance Talmadge's latest Select picture is one of the cleverest comed- ies that the screen has ever seen. It is a comedy written in a satirie vein of modern fads and ideas, and is filled with sprightly humor which offers the popular Select star many oxcellent distinctly Constance Tal- madge comedy opportunities. The means by which a clever, if prosiac, young man, who loved an adventur- ous and romantic young widow, res- cued her from marrying several other young men who would not have made the romance-seeking voung widow happy, is the theme of “Romance and Arabella.” The fifth episode of “The Light- ning Raider,” will also be shown to- night. MABEL NORMAND TONIGHT. Irrepressible Mabel Normand has broken out again! Proof of the out- break is found In *““The Pest,” and evidence of the sprightly comedien- ne’s high spirits will be enjoyed when the new Goldwyn picture comes to the Grand theatre tonight and Sunday. And there is something more-—a wistfulness and a pathetic appeal never before found in her madcap heroines. Funaier than “Sis Hopkins,” the new play strikes the high lights of rollicking fun and at the seime time brings a catch in the throat now and then when least expected. As the fun-loving farm- house drudge, Mabel Normand is at her best—perpetrator of a hundred Jjokes, always in a dreadful, but per~ feéctly logical scrape, and the center of a charming romance. Easily she curpasses herself as ‘“Puckers,” the lovable pest. COMEDY WHAT AM. A burlesque manager and his per- formers being welcomed to a town by the mayor and a brass band is a highly amusing situation in itself, but the incident is only the starting point in a riot of fun that follows in “Smiling Bill” Parsons’ newest Capi- tol comedy, ‘“The Potum of Swat,” which Goldwyn presents at the Grand theatre tonight and Sunday. . LAST SHOWINGS TONIGHT. A new bidder for popular favor, “The Eyes of the World,” had its first showing at the Elko theatre yesterday before a crowded house ““The Eyes of the World"” is the first work of its kind, dealing in a big way with California life in the pres- ent day and putting. into pictorial form the most phenomenally success- ful romance of the times, while its characters are fresh in the minds of several million readers. The ex- teriors are things of beauty. The rugged, towering mountains of San Bernardino county and the orange groves and rose gardens around Red- lands, the locale of the story, have been exquisitely photographed into scenes of rare charm. The fight scene is not like any other shown and is full of suspense, the cumulative in- terest at this point piling up from several directions that keep the spec- tator's mind literally on the jump. “The Eyes of the World". is exhibit- ed with a pretentious musical score, and is to be again screened for two showings at the Elko tonight. A SUPERB PHOTOPLAY. D. W. Griffith has switched from royalty to the ‘‘old folks at home,” from uniform and bursting rockets to drab denim and the old oil lamp, in his picture, “A Romance of Happy Valley” Which will be shown at the Elko theatre tomorrow and Monday, matinees and evenings. The man who was sought by the British and French governments to produce the dramatic epic of the war, “Hearts of the World,” has turned to homely life in henmcky and produced “‘A Romance of Happy Valley,” which i% a superb photoplay with situations of peculiar heart appeal and tremen- dous dramatic power. Mr. Griffith never has displayed his genius as producer to greater advantage than in this excellent photoplay. Lillian Gish, George Fawcett, Robert Harron and Kate Bruce are the principals of the cast. A feature of this delightful play is the music. Old time melodiss of the kind everyone loves, are on the musical program which is to be given by an orchestra Sunday and Monday evenings. GARAGE AT HINES, The V. M.
