RECITAL ENJOYED BY MANY IN
GRANTWOOC CHURCH

An hour of delightful music was
enjoyed at Trinity Episcopal Church,
Grantwood, at four o'clock Sunday
afternoon. The recital was the first
of a series of recitals to be given by
the church's musical organizations,
to secure new pipe organ for the
church.
The program, as arranged by the
organiSt, w. S. 3. Dana, was of a
triumphal character, in keeping with
the season of general thanksgiving
1t was opened with the inspiring pro-
cessional Rise Crowned with Light, "
with the full Sunday school and
to the chancel and were assisted by
the singers in the pews.
After short devotional service by
the rector Rev. Marshall F. Mont
gomery, the great anthem by James
C. Knox to the 122nd psalm: 20
Pray for the Peace of jerusalem
was sung by the entire body of sing
ers massed solidly on both sides of
the chancel. This work is one of
the most uplifting in all church mu
sic and carries performers and hear
ers along with it irresistibly. The
solo portions were taken with fine
effect by Wilbur F. Halt, basso, of
Falisade. Many more beautiful num-
beres were rendered during the after
noon
The offering amounted to fifty dol
lars, which sum would probably have
been considerably exceeded, had a
larger number been able to be pres
ent. The need of new pipe organ
which shall commensurate with the
rapidly growing spirit of worship in
I Trinity Church, as well as with a
possible eXtention of the church it
self, is realized by all The fund for
the new pipe organ is in charge OF
w. S. B. Dana, organist, Grantwood

UNITED CHARITIES OF CLIFF
SIDE PARK

A special meeting of the Executive
Council of the United Charities of
Chtfside Park was called by the chair
man, Mrs. Charles Levermore, on Sun
day afternoon at her home on Cort-
landt Place, Edgewater Heights, at
three o'clock, with two guests, mem
bers of the old Board of Charter mem
bers, as the subjects under discussion
We're the revision of the constitution
and plans for the season.
Mrs. Levermore read the present
constitution and compared it, article
by article, with one sent by the head
OF the United Charities of New York
the local one seeming to be the better
for the local work, in brevity and
defniteness.
In regard to several additions it was,
after some discussion, decided that
nothing definite could be decided on
until after the conference of the
chairman with the Bergen County Sec
rotary Of the Red Cross, as this organ
iZation has planned to include civilian
relief in its activities, and this will
probably eliminate the local charities
society as such. In the meantime,
however, the work will be pursued,
and the new name, Family Welfare
Work, was much approved, eliminat-
ing the Objectionable terms of charity
or relief.
There was quite discussion in re.
gard to friendly visitors" and lin.
vestigators," some feeling that these
should be in the same class, but the
majority considering that there should
be two distinct classes.
1t was felt that friendly visitors
were much more needed than investi
gators, as charitable relief will be a
minimum part of the work in these
days of good wages, but the friendly
touch and the Americanizing influence
is always crying need for the "stran
ger in our midst"
! The possible need of medical relief
was another subject under discussion
| and this was also duly considered
and the chairman empowered to lay a
proposition before the local doctors
In the discussion, the surprising fact
was presented that whereas the Cliff
side Park Postal Savings Bank had
deposits of $500 four years ago, il
now has deposits of $4,000 and that
80 per cent of the depositors are for
eigners.
| The meeting adjourned at o'clock
agreeing to convene again after defin
) lite information from the Atlantic Div
ision of the Red Cross was gained by
the chairman, Mrs. Levermore.

ers, as were the walls, streamers and
flags were strewn across the ceiling
and these flags caused much merri-
ment during the evening. This will
be explained in another part of the
story.
The music for the occasion was
furnished by Brudies' orchestra,
which has great notoriety in both
Bergen and Hudson Counties. This
was another factor of the large at
tendance of this dance
The decoration committee received
much praise for their work, but the
arrangements committee, which in
cluded all the club members received
the congratulations of all those who
were present.
Among the odd things they had
prepared were the turning down of the
flags that were suspended from the
ceiling. Every few minutes one of
these flags were turned and one time
lolly-pops fell and there was a scram-
BILE for them, another time peanuts
were dropped, while other times bal
looms were dropped and scrambles
