The word "Easter" itself comes from Eostra, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of Spring and pagan symbol of fertility. The snows melted and flowers bloomed when she touched the earth, the Teutonic tribes believed. According to legend, Eostra transferred her pet bird into a rabbit who later developed into our familiar Easter Bunny. That's why the elusive, generous hare still builds nests like a bird and fills them with colored eggs for children. Our custom of donning new clothes for Easter springs from the age-old desire to "spruce up" at a time when all nature is blooming with new life. The Chinese and North American Indians always cast off their old apparel in the spring, and the Roman Emperor Constantine introduced the custom to his royal court in the fourth century. Easter, which is celebrated this year on March 28, can fall anywhere between March 22 and April 25. The Church's Council of Nice decided in 325 A.D. that Easter should henceforth fall on the Sunday following the first full moon after the vernal equinox, March 21. This was believed to be the time when Easter lilies, symbolic of Christ's resurrection, bloomed in Egypt. Today's Easter morning sunrise services are curiously similar to solemn pagan religious rites held long before the time of Christ. Every year, on March 21, tribes gathered on mountain tops at dawn to celebrate the "Festival of the Sun," hailing the lengthening days and the beginning of spring. Persian sun-worshippers began their New Year on this day, and gave each other colored eggs, dyed with herbs. Early Christians arrived at 8 o'clock that day with his personal appearance, honor of the anniversary traveled via TWA Constellation. Also enjoying the affair Mrs. Gibson's son-in-law daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Riley, Jr., of the same family. The young couple plight troth two months ago. Ms. is the former Veda Annunciation.

Gibson saw that of coastal Persia and Arabia stated that the sight of Anaheim was "darn good."

Alden, Today's Easter morning sunrise services are curiously similar to solemn pagan religious rites held long before the time of Christ. Every year, on March 21, tribes gathered on mountain tops at dawn to celebrate the "Festival of the Sun," hailing the lengthening days and the beginning of spring. Persian sun-worshippers began their New Year on this day, and gave each other colored eggs, dyed with herbs. Early Christians consecrated eggs and continued to exchange them at Easter, staining them a deep red to symbolize the blood of Christ. An Easter gift of colored eggs came to denote affection during the Middle Ages, and elaborately gilded eggs—often adorned with jewels — were exchanged among royal families. Colored eggs proved rather impractical to send any distance as Easter greetings, and in the middle of the nineteenth century the people of northern Germany began sending Easter cards in their place. These early cards were religious scenes mounted on vividly-colored velvets and silks, often competent cast.
