EASTER SUNDAY Easter services at

interesting and impressive. The rich floral
display and decorations In commemoration OF
the day were exceedingly beautiful, and ar
ranged with exquisite taste and harmony
The Rector, Rev. DR.. Hull, preached on the
theme natural TO the occasion, and after the
morning service the holy communion was par
taken Of Ia the afternoon occurred the always
charming Children Easter in which the church
is given up mostly to the Sunday School and
their offerings and carols are the service OF
worship. The sacrament of baptism was ad-
ministered to several children of the parish.
In the evening the Rector delivered an able and
appropriate discourse to large and attentive
congregation. Preceding this, however, the
sacrament of baptism was administered to two
adult members. The music, furnished by the
excellent quartette Of the church, was quite
elaborate, especially at the morning service
embracing many choice and beautiful selections
rendered in an effective and finished manner
aiiording musical treat Of great merit The
Easter Offering amounted to something over
thirty-Gye hundred dollars, enabling the church
to pay Of its entire Indebtedness, and leave a
surplus in its treasury.
