DAYS OF. SPRING ARRIVE
Winters Departure Chilly, But YER
nal Period Begins This
Evening

/ Persons out in the crisp, even biting
:ir last night might not have suspect
I'd that the ycrnal season is near, but,
according to. the almanac, spring be-
gins exactly at 5:39 o'clock this af-
tcrnoon.
Astronomically speaking, the sun
passes through the vcrnal equinox
at the precise moment stated and for
The next day or two will rise almost
exactly at 6 am, solar time, as distin-
guished from standard time, setting
1T 6 p. m. with the same punctuality.
After that sunrise will come earlier
each morning and sunset later, until,
in June, the beginning of summer,
ne nights are shortest and the days
longest.
1t will occasion no surprise to the
rlajorit yof Alcxandrians to know
that spring is SO near. Even though
the cold has perneated their homes
and heating apparatus has needed
unreasonable replenishings in the last
few days, the sight Of milady's bon
nets in the millinery stores and the
bills that have gone forth following
The acquisition of such bonncts have
been the best and most reliable harp-
myers of spring that could be desired
There is another unmistablc sign.
and from today on it will be present
in the city streets, in the schoolyards
end on every vacant lot. When the
boy gets out the bat and glove and
begins to line them out or t.. gobble
them up, then may you know that
spring is night.

eHO|R's SPECIAL MUSIC
interesting Rendition of Select Pro.
gram at Christ Church
Last Night

The choir of Christ Church under
The direction Of Mr.: James +. Bagley,
gave a special musical service yester-
day evening at 1880 o'clock. The ser
vice: music consisted of the magnifi-
cant and nunc dimittis in f. by Sim
7er: AS the ,offertory Gounods bcauti-
nj and dramatic motette "'Gallia"
Cor soprano solo and chorus was
sung, the solo portion being sustained
:,y Mrs. George Z. Pickett.
The history of this motctte is in
:crcsting.. After the Franco-Prus-
;ian war the, respective composers Of
ne two countries displayed the feel
ngs of the times in musical speech.
Hitler published his "Song of Victory
and Gounod produced a work which
he named after the ancient name Of
France when a Roman province. The
words are taken from the Lamen-
tations of jeremiah and if one were
20, search through the entire realm
Of sacred and secular literature it
would be impossible to find passages
more descriptive of the unhappy con-
lition Of France at that time.
The work opens with solcman CHOIR
rs in the minor mode Solitary licth
tho city. She that was full of people
She that was great among ma
ionS-Princcss among the provinces
How is she put under tribute!'
A beautiful solo number "Zion'a
ways do anguish" develops into d
thrilling chorus with soprano obligato,
Behold iand see if there be any sor-
low like unto my sorrow.
The remedy for the country's sad
condition is found in the prophets
words of advice: Jerusalem, o turn
.hou to. the Lord, thy Cod" given to
solo voice and closing the motettc
with i chorus of splendid, dramatic
Intensity.
