Interesting Easter Services at
the Churches

Last Sunday was Easter and
several of the Lexington churches
had special services in observance
of the occasion. The day was
ideally spring, with only sus-
picion of c;ispness in the air. The
churches were well attended and
the observer had no difficulty in
discovering that this day of all
the days Of the year, marks the
laying aside Of winter fabrics and
the appearance Of spring bonnets
and gowns. Sunday was no
exception and femininity appeared
clad in bright and becoming colors.
At Grace Memorial Episcopal
church an interesting service was
held il the morning at II O'Clock,
with special Easter sermon by
the rector, Rev. DR.. Il. j. Nc
Bryde. The church and chancel
were deliberately decorated with
flowers, and special program
Of Easter music was rendered.
in the afternoon at 4 O'Clock the
Sunday school rendered an at
tractive program, beginning with
professional and, after an inter
esting service of songs and
responses, conducted by DR.. Nc
Bryde and the superintendent, Mr..
j. d. Letcher, concluding with a
occasional.
At the Presbyterian church Sun
day morning Rev. DR.. S. H.
Chester, secretary of the Board of
Foreign Missions Of the Southern
Presbyterian Church, gave a
descriptive account of his visit to
Korea in 1897. He spoke of the
geography of the country, its vast
population, the dense ignorance of
its people, and the religion OF
Buddhism and Confucius, which
they tenaciously cling to. In the
evening ne lectured on his recent
"trip to Brazil-tOld Of its wonder
ful and almost unchanging climate,
the rich red soil, its government as
Il so-called republic, and the great
success the Presbyterian church
had attained in planting true,
evangelical religion there. The
sill ging Of the choir at both SER
vices was a marked feature.
At Trinity Methodist church
the pastor, Rev. j. II. Light,
at the morning service, II a. n,
preached an Easter sermon. The
pulpit and @hancel were decorated
with flowers, and special music
was rendered by the choir,
Rev. DR., Charles Manly of the
Baptist church, held services
appropriate to the occasion, in the
morning preaching an Easter
sermon.
