The Easter Egg Is Here Again An egg can mean many things to people—something to go with ham, whether fried, scrambled, or poached, something a hen lays, or the proverbial question of which came first. But at Easter time, eggs mean only one thing, objects to dye and decorate. Monks ornamented them with emblematic designs, after which they were blessed and eaten ceremoniously. Great originality and skill was found in the decoration of Easter eggs throughout Europe. In England eggs were stained, decorated with cupids and other emblems of affection, and given as presents. Easter was a visiting day in Germany and Russia, and there people gave their decorated eggs to friends. During the years, the religious meaning of the Easter egg declined, and children found a favorite pastime in the egg dying. But have you ever wondered just where the custom of dying eggs for Easter originated? The egg stood as a symbol of the birth of mankind thousands of years before Christ. At one time they were taken to church Easter Sunday to be sprinkled with holy water and blessed by the priest. We now dye. Easter eggs many colors, but originally they were stained a brilliant red, typifying the blood of Redemption. Today our eggs are decorated less elaborately than in ancient days. Odds and ends around the house go into the making of interesting designs on the eggs. Sequins, beads, ribbons, flowers, cotton, and crepe paper can be fastened with cellophane tape or paste, producing table decorations, party favors, and the center of attraction in Easter egg hunts.
