not work against Christ, and that for which He stands, without suffering. It is man who is selfish and unwilling to accept the true meaning of Easter. The civil rights bill is one of the instruments we may use to show our full appreciation of Easter and the right to maintain a free life which is our heritage, and has been paid for, by the suffering of Christ. Must we pay again? The color of the skin or the place of abode means nothing to Christ-let us all work together to make Easter have a true and full meaning, and become real.
