All the balloons rose to great height and sailed swiftly and maiestically in di- rect line to Norfolk or beyond.

EASTER IN TEE CHURCHES

It Is evident from the large numbers who thronged all the churches in this village on Sunday that the fact of the resurrection of Christ and the doctrines growing out of that fact have strong hold on the popular heart
 h the Pilgrim church, Christ church and in the Methodist church there were magnificent displays of beautiful flow CTS, including Easter lilies, in the ar rangement of which rare good taste was shown. The choirs also had made special preparations for the due obeerv- ance of the day and the results were most gratifying. The service at Christ church was choral, with the exception that the prayers were not intoned Special praise is due to the choir of the Pilgrim church for the rendering of the anthem, 'tChrist Is Risen," and 10 the Methodist church choir for the manner m which the several anthems were sung. E W. Adams played the cornet in the Methodist church with fine effect at the morning service, An effort is being made to secure his services every Sun day In future.
 The preachers made the resurrection of the Lord the theme of their dis courses
 The Rev MT Milliken chose as his text II Tim. I. 10. His sermon was . grand one, full of original thought He showed the continuity of life. and death was only like a bend in the river.
 Iu Christ church there WAS morning prayer, sermon and celebration of the Holy Communion in the morning. Rev MT Whittlesey assisted the rector. The sermon by the rector was an admirable discourse on Luke XXIy, S4. The beautiful hangings for altar, reredoe. pulpit and prayer desk. of white broad cloth with gold thread embroidery, and the white silk stole for the rector, all presented by the Ladies' guild. were used for the first time. In the evening there was special service for the chil- dren,
 In the Methodist church, Rev MT Bonds text at the morning service was Acts X. 40. Al. In the evening the congregation was greatly augmented by many from the Pilgrim church who attended by invitation. The | Rev MT Milliken assisted in the servi- ces. This attendance was also intended as tribute to MT Bond whose deeply regretted departure IS now so close at hand. MT Bonds evening sermon was on Luke XXIy, 6. Both of Mir Bonds sermons were able efforts. characterized by earnestness, historical argument and rich in practical suggestions
 The services at St Joseph's on Easter Sunday were very beautiful and attrac- tive. This was largely due to the zeal ous efforts of several of the young ladies of the parish- The altar was elsborately and tastefully decorated with potted plants in bloom. boquets and festoons, amid which gleamed the light of many wax candles. During the mass large choir of children sang Easter carols with sweet voices and in a spirited manner. The number of communicants was large. Father Ramon preached an eloquent and appropriate sermon. Among other thoughts which he eI- pressed he urged his hearers to rise from the death of sin.
