Easter at State Line M. Z. Church,
South.

Yesterday morning was cod and
diSagreeable, yet many appeared in
their Easter costumes, and a vast
audience gathered early at the
church. The Sunday school was
large and enthusiastic. The music
was unusually fine. The anthems,
hymns, and solSs seemed to inspire
preacher and hearers iE all the
service. The whole choir with
those especially invited to aid in
the Easter music deserve much
credit for the faithful work done.
The appreciation by the audience
was plaialy visible.
Rev. D. F, C. Timmons selected
for his topic, "The Philosophy and
scripture of eternal life, y The
treatment Of the subject was net
after the old methods and many
said that it was strong and pow
erful presentation of the subject,
and more came than could be seat
ed. The singing was a delight and
the sermon entertainingly. Thus
closed a happy Easter at the State
Line Methodist CHURCH.
