(By Corinne Thomasfl) The cold wind anil snow, which gave a Yultide touch to the spring festival, failed to chill the Easter spirit of the St. John’s goers, who faced the chilly breezes to observe, what is probably the most impressive of religious services. Easter lilies, palms, and spring flowers that filled the altar, defied the winter outside and gave the sanctuary an atmosphere of spring. At both morning and evening services special music was rendered by the choir. At the morning serv ices special music was rendered by the choir. At the morning services a violin solo was rendered by Maceo Williams, and a vocal solo by Rev. R. Taylor. The text for the sermon was. “He Is Not Here, He Has Risen." The Sunday school rendered their annual program after which each teacher gave her pupil the much ex pected Baster memento. The evening hour was devoted to a musical program by the choir. Every number was very appropriate and appealing. cm in ii ok st. I'HlLir THK IIKA('0\ Rev. John Albert Williams, Vicar. Despite the inclement weather the Easter services from the early Euch arist at 6:30 until the children's serv at 6 p. m., wrere largely attended and inspirational. With few exceptions, some of whom were detained by ill i ness, nearly the entire membership ■ made their communion and while no special appeal had been made for an ] Easter offering, the offering was gen jerous. At the 11 o’clock service the music was hearty and devotional, nothing elaborate being attempted, and was materially assisted by Dan Ilesdunes, violinist. The usual services next Sunday at 7:30. 10 and 11 a. mfl and .7:30 p. m.
