breaches ON SIGNIFICANCE
OF THE RESURRECTION

Rev. A. C. Smithers, pastor of the
First Christian church, gave fine SER
mon on the Significance of the Resur-
rection." He said:
THE fact of the resurrection is one
of the best substantiated events in his
tory. The significance and meaning of
the resurrection challenges attention
today. The resurrection of Jesus was
upon level with his works and words
and is no more wonderful than his con-
duct and character. His resurrection
was an expression of his mastery in
realms defying the powers of man."
The special Easter music was given
under the direction of j. p. Dupuy by
the choir of sixteen voices. The an
thems We're: He Is .Risen," and THE
Easter Hymn" The contralto, Blanche
Brown, gave a solo. LAS 1t Began 10
Dawn" with pleasing effect.
At the evening service Hammond's
cantata THE Triumphant Christ"
was sung by the choir. with Miss Mot
tram, soprano; Blanche Brown, con-
tralto; j. P. Dupuy, tenor; J. j. Mar
tin, bass, and Miss Madge Patton, on
ganist.
The choir rail of the church was
hidden by a mass of mustard blossoms,
and there were clusters of calla lilies
in front of the platform. A large cross
of calla lilies and palm branches COM
pleted the decorations.

BOYS CHOIR MAKES FIRST
APPEARANCE AT MISSION

The services at All Saints mission
were of especial interest yesterday for
they marked the first appearance of
the boy choir,
The choir is under the direction of
Mrs. A. G. l.. Trew, and in addition to
the fourteen boys, there are several
men. Mrs Trew has been training
the members in class and individually,
and the music given by them yester-
day was source of pleasure to all,
The young women of the Altar chap
ter spent all day Saturday decorating
the chapel for the occasion, and the
success achieved by the combination
of white Easter lilies. white roses and
carnations and asparagus plumosus
was marked. The window easements
were hidden underneath white lilies
and the chancel rails were covered
with net of white blossoms. Sus-
pended over the chancel was a large
cross made OF delicate pink roses.

CHAPLAIN kIDDER SPEAKS
OF THE EASTER JOYS

Chaplain Kidder addressed the
Strangers Friend society yesterday
afternoon in Burbank hall on the topic
of Easter joys" He said in part:
Easter is coming to be the happiest
time of the whole year throughout the
Christian world. Resurrection joy is
ringing all the bells today and Lenten
melodies have given way to the Halle
lujah chorus. The hope of the world
rests upon Christ, the Mighty One
who was able to abolish death. The
resurrection was the principal theme
of the apostles during their lifetime,
for they went everywhere preaching
Jesus and the resurrection. Today the
churches must preach and sing the
resurrection, its great meaning for the
everyday life is that the Christian
should live the resurrected life, dead to
sin and alive to God; dead to selfish
ness and alive to the needs of man;
dead to pride, jealousy, hatefulness
envy, and alive to love and mercy
Humanity waits the dawn of such a
resurrection, and when it bursts out
in the words and lives of the people of
God and gets on to the street into the
factory, into the bank, into store and
on to the farm, then it is that we shall
have new heaven and a new earth
Let us pray for its coming.

1.-THE MESSAGE OF THE
ANGELS AT CHRIST'S TOMB

Rev. j. S. Thomson, pastor of the
Independent Church of Christ, III
Dobinson auditorium, preached a SER
mon on The Message of the Angels
at Christ's Tomb" He said:
Christ and his disciples in the New
Testament assure us that we need not
fear. Christians should not be cow
ards. They have ON their side God.
the universe, Christ, angels and the
spirits of the departed. The angels at
Chrlst's tomb pleaded heroism. The
angels knew the purpose of the
women's visit to the tomb. The beings
whom we cannot see can sometimes
read our thoughts; but not always can
they do this. 1t was gratitude, love,
loyalty and remembrance that led them
to the garden that early morning. The
angels commanded the women to pub
lish Christ's resurrection and they be-
came the first preachers of his resur-
rection. They were also informed by
the celestial ones that Christ would
appear to his friends and disciples in
Galilee. Why seek ye the living among
the dead? said the angels; He Is not

dead persons, persons whose spiritual
nature is dormant, nor among dead and

ELOQUENT EASTER SERMON

One of the largest congregations in
many months filled Christ church al
the service yesterday morning. Tho
auditorium and Sunday school rooms
were packed with worshlpers.
The decorations were in charge Of
Mrs. S. z. Posey, president of the
Daughters of the Church. The altar
was beautified with Easter lilies and
ferns. The pulpit was adorned with a
profusion of calla lilies and ferns. over
which were suspended five Easter
chime bells with beautiful floral de-
signs. over the central arch was d
large cross of solid white carnations,
surmounted by a crown of carnations
The arch over the lecturn contained d
large wreath of carnations and ferns.
The pillars supporting the roof screen
were twined with lilies and ferns. The
steps leading to the altar were outlined
with potted Easter lilies and palms.
The impressive service was carried
out in the ritualistlc form. The music
evinced the careful training of the
vested choir.
Dr. Bowling preached an interesting
sermon, emphasizing four thoughts as
Endorsements of the teachings of Jesus
Christ. He said in part:
"Our aspirations for Immortality are
limitations of the teaching of Jesus
Christ. The fact that we reached out
for them show there is something
within us which reaches out. The rest
lessness of the Gagged beast teaches us
that his home is outside the cage; the
huttering of the embryonic wings OF the
fledgling proved that the nest is not his
abiding place. In the same way man is
a yonder- minded being. He is an em-
bodied hereafter
He reminded his hearers that in each
OF us there slumbers consciousness Of

useless things. He is alive with the
whole power of God in his life. He is
the greatest living face in the world
today. Mary was asked by the angel,
Why weepest thou? Her joy was
going to be excessive. She was going
to be the first to see her spiritual
Master. She was worthy to have this
divine favor. Easter is glorious
festival a sublime revelation, a door
of the grandest hope, a blessed message
to Gods children on earth, a declara-
tion of that law of the universe which
insures immortality and upward pro-
gress forever. The angels are at every
grave that will be visited today. They
will not be seen but through spiritual
laws and agencies their messages will
be felt and learned. The angels told
the women that Christ's words should
be studies regarding the resurrection.
When we visit the tombs of our be-
loved dead 1t will be we'll for us to re.
member lovingly the words and deeds
of the departed, in order to feel the
divine meaning of the resurrection.

Twilight Communion" at which the
rite of the sacrament of the Lords sup

roses, palms, ferns and papyrus taste

ture in front of the massive organ.
Special decorations were also placed

mo matter how long we live, nor how
much we accomplish" said the speaker,
1--WE pass out with the cry upon our
lips, In aspirations infnite-in accom-
plishments infinitesimal If this life is
ever to be perfected it must be pro-
longed beyond the span of seventy
years.
"These are fundamental instincts. and
fundamental instincts are always trust
worthy. There is no fraud in the con-
stitution of things. Nature always
speaks the truth. No instinct has ever
been discovered which Is a delusion.
God is a faithful creator. If death were
the end of all things then this is a
crazy universe, without any purpose

which has been bestowed upon it's de-
velopment."
DR.. Bowling had announced to his
congregation that he desired an Easter
offering of $4,000 in order that his sue
cessor, the Rev. Baker p. Lee. should

finances of the parish The congrega-

cessor, the Rev. Baker p. Lee. will

with the dawn of yesterday came
Eastertide.
From the smallest church. snuggled
away among the dilapidated buildings
of the unkept quarter. and alike from
the most costly edifice of the exclusive
portion of the city, thousands of voices,
lifted up in unison, sang hosannas to
the risen Christ.
Birds and flowers and trees took up
the song.
All indomitably energetic Los An
geles, for the day at least, put aside its
cankerous striving after civic greatness
Worshpers went their different ways
to their churches with chastened hearts.
Many of those who knew no faith were
drawn across church thresholds by
some unknown but Irresistible impulse
of the Easter mystery. The day for
Los Angeles was one of religious hap
piness.
Flowers breathing forth California
fragrance garlanded pillars and gal
leries and choir lofts of churches. and
lecturns, climbed and kissed the Bibles
with their petals.
Deep toned organs. which during the
season of pentence have sounded only
passion music swelled forth into hymns
of praise and Thanksgiving, which were
caught up and returned in songs of re-
joicing by the congregations
Tell of Resurrection
Ministers told over again the story
of the atonement and of the resurrec-
ton.
During the morning the sun shone
fitfully. One moment it flashed through
churches, testifying to the worshipers
the joy of the Easter day, the next
moment it vanished behind a cloud AMI
left them In the gloom of the Lenten
season lately past.
Church services began with sunrise
and continued until late in the evening.
At nearly all the churches special
musical programs were given.
For the smaller children Easter, in
feality, began yesterday. Grocery ac-
counts when checked up will show un-
usual quantities of eggs purchased and
many fingers stained with all the colors

The difficult service of the Episcopal
