Small boys looked forward to Easter, or "i/nas," much , the 'same as to Fourth of July. They * wanted egas by the hatful, the bas-![ kotful or the barrel fill, and they stole'1 them as shamelessly :ts city do the fuel for bonfire*. j Dyed in various colors, the Easter1! | egus came from hidden stores for the ; family feast, and win :i the amusement I Of stealing ami ilyeing for general use ' became too tamo the hoys also laid by I fctores for a vagabond feast in the woods. Eggs were roasted In ashesjT ; ami devoured with the relish that jrocsr I with an out of doors amDotlie. To lend,, i {' further zest to the fca Ct the boys of D one neighborhood Would raid the hid-- den stores of amvhcr. If t!:r» party raided was alert, tliere would happen, !n scramble as fierce atid Woody as a i football rush. If the conlest was close, a then eggs raw or* .eggs burning hot rf were iired into the faces of the com- / 1 batants. lVrhaps there was economy ' hi the long run in this recklessness, for • the boys who reveled in an Easter j feast didn't have any appetite for eggs j the remainder of the year. In olden times the church pave to Easter a festal coloring by let time people down to their common tastes at the close of la-nt.

Small boys looked forward to Easter, or "i/nas," much , the 'same as to Fourth of July. They * wanted egas by the hatful, the bas-![ kotful or the barrel fill, and they stole'1 them as shamelessly :ts city do the fuel for bonfire*. j Dyed in various colors, the Easter1! | egus came from hidden stores for the ; family feast, and win :i the amusement I Of stealing ami ilyeing for general use ' became too tamo the hoys also laid by I fctores for a vagabond feast in the woods.

To lend,, i {' further zest to the fca Ct the boys of D one neighborhood Would raid the hid-- den stores of amvhcr. If t!:r» party raided was alert, tliere would happen, !n scramble as fierce atid Woody as a i football rush. If the conlest was close, a then eggs raw or* .eggs burning hot rf were iired into the faces of the com- / 1 batants. lVrhaps there was economy ' hi the long run in this recklessness, for • the boys who reveled in an Easter j feast didn't have any appetite for eggs j the remainder of the year.
