Adams will be the preacher. All clergymen urge that there be a hearty response to this call for wor- ship on this day. which is the anni- versary of the saddest day in the life of, tho Lord and which is of such deep sidnifcance to the revcrent Christian heart.

Dr. Hill will give an it. lustrated address on "Jerusalem in Passion Week and Eastertide" It is tho idea not to make this in any sense an entertainment, but a. service for tender devotion, the lantern slides be- ing used to visualize certain scenes and places connected with the last days of Christ's life. There will be spe- cial music.
