Let Easter Be A
Day of Inspirations
Isn't it true that in the seeming hustle, bustle and
striving of business life we all sometimes lose sight
of the true meanings of events, occasions, days or
seasons?
Isn't this true, more or less," in regard to Easter?
Are we permitting self glory, desires, ambitions,
commercialisms to overshadow the day and rob us of
inspirations which should mean for us happiness,
peace, plenty?
These few words are not aimed to preach creed
' nor form. Instead they are grouped in a new form
of a sincere invitation to every person in North Platte
to visit his or her church on Easter. To let it be a
day of inspirations. Inspirations to all that is best
in them.
Easter commemorates the resurrection of the
Christ. An occasion which was the living proof of
the victory of Life or Death. And if that be so, then
frail human fears, worries, jealousies, despairs are
all ureless. It is to us to look to the source of our
being -and we are at least striving to do this when
we attempt to live the Christianity that wc all know
Each in his own way.
So visit YOUR church Easter Sunday. It will give
you the inspirations to strive anew in meeting your
work-a-day problems. Dealing with fellowman as
you would be dealt with.
It's well worth the effort.

"Orderly of the day, sir."
"And why tho deuce are you not
