Easter Sunday At
Zion M. E. Church

Those who were fortunate enough
to attend the services at Zion M. E.
Church yesterday will long remember
the day, because every service brou-
ght to mind with increased interest
the great subject of the Resurrec-,
ton of the Saviour of the World.
The morning sermon by the pastor.
Rev. w. E. Gunby, from the subject,
Sunrise on the Sepulchre,' was
thoughtful and profitable presenta-
tion of the climax of the Christian
faith. The Easter cantata, ''Redemp-
tion's Song," was rendered at the ev-
ening service under the leadership
of Mrs. V. Calvin Trice, with about
twenty-five voices, in a very attrac-
tive manner, and greatly appreciated
and enjoyed by crowded house. The
address by the pastor on ''The Place
of the Resurrection in Christian
Thought," was forcefully presented
to an appreciative audience. Alto
gether, it was great Intellectual
feast to the minds and hearts OF
those present. The pulpit and chan
eel were attractively decorated with
flowers.

Church Beautifully Decorated Fol
Occasion-Choir Renders Excellent
Musical Program.
The services at Grace NJ. E.Church
South, yesterday will long be remem,
bered by all those who took occasion
to attend. From early morning, un-
til ten o'clock ill the evening, the
subject of the resurrection of ou1
Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, was
impressed upon the minds of those
present by sermon and song.
The services of the day began at
9.45 a. m, when the Baraca Class
held special Easter service. The
teacher, Rev. ]. D. Brown, delivered
splendid message to the class, and
the musical program was excellent.
A trio by Misses Elsie Robbins, Eve
lyn Pritchett and Francis insley was
greatly enjoyed, as was also the mu-
sic by the Baraca Orchestra. There
were Ill men present.
At II o'clock services were held in
the main auditorium of the church,
when the pastor, Rev. Henry w.
Dunkley, delivered a mastery ser
mon on The Resurrection" A full
choir, tuned to the spirit of the day,
rendered beautiful Easter anthems.
At 2.15 p. m. the Sunday School
convened, with oyer 200 scholars
present A collection of s2S was
taken in the school for. the Orphan
age
At the evening services Rev. F. Il.
McSparran, Presiding Elder for the
Eastern Shore District, preached a
splendid sermon, and the choir rem
dered excellent music.
To say that the decorations were
beautiful would be putting,::t mildly.
Under the supervision of Mrs. VIM.
L. Barrett, the pulpit and chancel
had been banked with wild flowers,
palms, fern, and other potted plants,
and presented a scene of rare lowell
ness and beauty. The music through

overflowing, and all present could
not help but feel that they had been
lifted just a little higher in their
christian experience.
The Easter Offering for the sup
port of the Orohanage amounted to
som mething over one hundred dollars.

attention to the peace treaty nor to the

problems to solve which are of a practical
and serious nature. One of these is the
supplying of food for ourselves IN abund

the same time feeding the hungry popu-
latlons of the foreign, over-crowded ma
tons. There seems to be no reason for
tearing serious shortage this year, hut
the food problem projects itself into the
decades and into the centuries. The world
is growing, One hundred years ago Great
Britain had 5000, 900 people. She could
have fed these from the products of her
island home. Today there are 40, 900, 600
living there, and if the coasts should be
blockaded these people would starve
