Dear Mrs. Pease: I’m -teaching kindergarten in Clearwater in the forenoons so miss out on the “Voice of The Frontier,” on Mondays and Wed nesdays but always listen on Sat urdays. I must say I am unhappy when The Frontier fails to arrive on Thursdays — although it usually does. I have found some interesting items about Easter I’d like to pass on to the readers. It gets its name in English from an Anglo Saxon goddess, “Eastre,” who represent ed light or spring. Easter is the spring time Christian festival which honors the resurrection or rising from the dead of Jesus. Some Easter customs are quaint and others are full of meaning. The idea of Easter eggs comes to us from ancient Egypt and Persia. The eggs are a sign of new life. Legend has it that they are laid by the Easter rabbit on Easter eve. White lilies often decorate the church. The lilies are a symbol of purity and light. The cross re minds worshipers of the true re ligious meaning. The earliest possible date of Easter is March 22 and the latest is April 25. As the readers know, Easter is April 1, this year. _ BUNNY SALAD FOR EASTER Make a nest of shredded let tuce. Place half of a canned pear on the lettuce, round side up. Add ball of white cream cheese for tail, pimento for nose, almonds for ears, cut carrot and parsley in front of nose. Chop cocoanut fine and sprinkle over pear for fur. Happy Easter to each of your readers. MRS.
