This thing we call hope—it is a strange thing. It springs eternal in the human breast.. .and yet so often it has been mocked by time and tragedy.

Why, indeed, does every man and * woman cling to his or her hope, even when the self-styled realists cry "hopeless."

The answer is written in the beautiful history of the first Easter Day. Faithful friends of the Master came to anoint His body. Came sorrowing... .without hope.

And they returned rejoicing: "Christ is risen..."

That was the birthday of Hope.. .the certainty of Christians that even death cannot destroy the believing soul!

And every Easter Day countless men and women discover or rediscover that Hope. It brings a new joy to their lives. It will, to vours.
