The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1896-04-05

Christianity ii has
been celebrated by Christians with the
greatest joy. It is prominently a day
of flowers and marks the transition from
the austeries of Lent to the vanities OF
the world.
There are few churches in Savannah
that will not observe by music, sermon
and flowers or in some way, the great
festival that marks the resurrection. The
preparations for the festival services
have been going on for weeks and the
music in the Roman Catholic, Episco-
palian and Lutheran churches, which OBJ
serve Easter with more eclat than other
denominations, will be of an elaborate
and impressive character. In nearly all
Of the churches affairs and pulpits were
being decorated last night and this morn
ing will be radiant with bright flowers.

Of an imposing char acter. The church has
been richly decorated with flowers and
plants. The morning service will be at II
o'clock, at which the Easter music will be
sung. The programme is as follows:
