MONDAY

Allan Dwan's newest comedy drama,
"a Perfect Crime" which appears at the
Colonial Theatre next Monday reveals
the desirability of indulging in that
American pastime, pretending to be what
you aren't. The hero, Wally Griegs, is
a grand pretender. With the aid of a
little nerve he is transformed from a
timid bank messenger to a dominant
humbug whose latest book on faxed trav-
els brings him a fortune-and of course a
girl. The picture is said to combine hui
NOR with pathos and offers clever char
acterization. The story is simple and
true to life.
Monte Blue, considered one of the
ablest actors on the screen, has the role
of Wally Griggs. the awkward, bashfui
fellow. He quite suddenly decides to rob
the bank where he is employed as mes
senger From this weighty decision to
the conclusion the picture is rich in hu-
NOR and human interest. He blossoms
forth into dashing social lion.

Easter in the Churches.

Sunday, March 9th, Easter, was a
typical May day with sunshine and show
ers alternating. Although Easter came
the earliest this year since in 1917 and
with one exception, March 81, 1929, will
be the only time it will come in March
until after 1880, it was unusually warm.
All the city churches had good audiences,
the usual decorations of lilies, tulips, jon
quils, cut flowers and ported house plants.
All had special music with solos, an
thems. ETC., and helpful and appropriate
sermons in all the pulpits.
The usual Easter services of Palestine
Commandery, Knights Templar, were
held at the North church at p. M, with
fifty members present and occupying
seats reserved for them in the center
section. The decorations were jonquils,
tulips and an abundance of beautiful
Easter lilies. The insignia of the Com
mandery added materially to the general
effect The responsive service was con-
Quoted by Excellent Prelate Sir Knight
Norman S Donahue; the responsive read
ing by Rev. Arthur E. wilson: the lesson
by Rev. George C. Sauer and the prayer
by Rev. William Vaughan. Most inn
pressive music was rendered by a choir
consisting of Mrs. Clement w. Wescott,
Mrs. Melvin %. Dickey, Messrs. John
Parker and Harry L. Coombs, with Miss
Amy E. Stoddard as organist. Mrs. Yves
colt sang the solo. "Angels Roll the Stone
Away" by Scott, in her most charming
manner, in clear tones and distinct utter
ance. The sermon, "The Kingship of
Jesus" was given by the pastor, Rev. A.
G. Elliott, and was in his usual animated
manner. and was logically expressed.
The text was taken from St. John, chap
ter l9, verse 19: "and Plate wrote title,
and put it on the Cross. And all the
writing was, Jesus of Nazareth, the King
of the Jews" Mr.. Elliott clearly defined
why Plate wrote the inscription in He
brew, the language of religion of the
soul; in Greek, that of culture and htera-
ture; in Latin, the language of power
He then drew from each of the above in
scriptions lessons for the present every
day life and proved conclusively the
hingship of Jesus who holds the keys of
civilization as he does those Of the soul
and mind. Sir Knight Donahue paid trb-
ute to the Commandery's dead in the
past year: Sir Knights Cyrus E. Tibbetts,
Royal W. Warren, Clarence N. Cram,
Nathan D. Ross, Adelbert Milett, Albert
Z. Burgess and William E. HOFFMAN.
Flowers from the decorations were dis
trlbuted among their bereaved members.
