especially good one, and will not fail
to be beneficial as dispensers of in

CRUCIFIXION
BY N. E.CHOIR
Large Crowd at M. E.
Church South Last
Night
Beautiful Rendition of 0ratOriG
Splendid Work of
Chorus

"The Crucifixion," probably the
most beautiful and certainly the best
loved of all oratorios was resented
last night by the choir of the Wash
ingtOn Street Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, to an audience which
filled the house.
The part of the questioner was sung
by Mr.. Jackson, who is already well
known to Alexandria's music lovers.
His work was marked by intelligence
and sympathy and his voice added ma
terially to the beauty of the male
chorus.
Mr.. w. Frank Sunny, of Washing
ton, who has been a member of the
Church's quartette for some months,
sang the difficult work for the bass
soloist with marked ease and feeling.
The exqu site pathos of Gould Ye Not
Watch With Me One Brief Hour" was
exceptionally we'll done and the en-
tire role was noticeable for quiet
beauty and strength.
Mr.. Kenneth w. Ogden, has sung
the tenor role in this OratOrio on sew
eral occasions before Alexandria au-
diences, but never with such beauty of
dicton. The well loved King Ever
Glorious" was given with dramatic in
tensity and in perfect voice.
Too much cannot be said of the
work of the chorus. The regular choir
of the Church presented the work,
which is trying in the extreme and
which would tax the efforts of much
larger chorus. The chorus parts were
given with understanding and in an
authoritative manner worthy of a
metropolitan organization. Special
mention should be made of Filing
Wide The Gates" and of the beauti-
full and difficult Cruelty Chorus"
The Interpolation of the Mary
Song" from "Gethsemane to Golgo-
tina" was an inspiration and afforded
an opportunity for the exqulsitely
lovely voice of Mrs. Harrie White to
be heard in this Oratorio in which the
solo work is entirely for the male
voices. The MARY Song" is the cry
from the heart of Christ's mother to
her Son upon the Cross and was sung
Immediately before the recltatiye IN
which the Saviour commits ms
mother to the care of the loved Dis
ciples. This was the first occasion
upon which this rare song has been
used in conjunction with this Oratorio
but is hoped by Alexandria's music
loving public that this may become
fixed part of similar productions. Last
nights audience owes a debt of graft
tude to the leader of the choir for
this thought.
Mrs. George E. Warfield gave a
most beautiful Interpretation Of the
March to Calvary" and ooh, Rest in
the Lord" was played as the offertory'

q The Lonely Tomb

This good rich man was Jesus friend
And tried to take His part,
So when they crucified our Lord,
1t sorely grieved his heart.
Straight to the Governor he went
And begged His body there,
And laid it in his own new tomb
All wrapped in linen fair,
Since the next day was the Sabbath,
And the night would quickly come
They rolled the stone before the door
And mournfully went home

Presently DER those garden paths
In breathless haste there ran

St Peter and st. John.
Into the tomb they looked and went,
And saw the grave clothes laid.
Each clasped the others hand with joy,
He is risen, as He said"

7--Mary MagdaIene

After these two had gone away,
Mary Magdalene stood alone,
Weeping and feeling very sad
Because her Lord was gone.
And when man came near her
She could not look at Him.
She thought he was the gardener.
Her eyes with tears were dim.
But gentle voice said, Mary"
And when she heard her name
She knew the voice of Jesus,
And her face was all ahame.
"Rabboni," she cried, ooh! Master nine"
And her grief all fled away,
While the sun rose DER the mountain tops,
Bringing the joyous day
"Go, say to my disciples"
Then said our blessed Lord,
81 ascend urto the Father,
70 my God and to your God"

g. The Strong Guards

But now the wicked, cruel men
That crucified our Lord
Came quickly to the Governor
And asked him for a guard.
Those wicked men professed to fear
That Jesus friends would come
To steal away His body
Out of that rocky tomb.

So a guard of Roman soldiers,
With shield, and sword, and spear
Two nights and a day there watche,
And let no one come near.

1.-The Lovely Garden

In the time that's long ago,
In land that's far away,
A rich man had a garden,
So the Bible writer's say.
And in that lovely garden
Were trees, and walks, and flowers,
And the birds sang in the sunshine
Just as in this land of ours.
But in this far-off garden
There was something very strange
Something you here will seldom see
However far you range.
The rich man in his garden
Had made himself a grave!
1t was not hole dug in the ground;
1t was much more like cave.
Yes, it was like little house
With rocky walls and floor
And a great stone stood beside it
To roll across the door.

And this is the joy of FASTER
That we, too, each one, can cry,
"Rabboni! my own dear Master!
Jesus, my Lord on high"
And each one can give Christ's message
To ali who will give heed,
And say, "He lives at Gods right hand
To help us in our need"
Wen tell them, God so loved the world,
That His only Son He gave;
VINO believes in Him shall not perish,
But eternal life shall have"

5--Ihe Faithful Women
Still before the break of day
A band of women came
With Spices sadly through the dark
His body to embalm.
"Oh! who shall roll away for us
The stone" the women say;
But when they came quite near, they saw
The stone was rolled away.
And bright angel sat on it,
Who to the women said,
oh! foolish ones, why do you seek
The Living among the dead?
He is not here, your Saviour Christ,
He from the dead is risen,
Did He not say that He would break
The bars of deaths dark prison?
Go quickly, His disciples tell
That He is risen indeed
To be their Helper and their Friend
In every time Of need"

f. TIE Strong Angel

Before the sun began to rise
Early on Easter Day,
An angel came on wings of light
And rolled the stone away.
When the bright angel touched the stone.
Men felt an earthquake shock;
And when Jesus rose from the open tomb
The guards amazed fell back
When Jesus rose, alive and strong,
The soldiers fled in fear,
And quickly from the garden ran
To reach the city near.

WILL FIND YOU OUT
BE sure your sins will find

BE sure your sins will find
you out"
The above words were spoken
nearly 1900 hundred years before
Christ. They are as true today
as them.
Another sacred writer saws
nearly 700 years before Christ
that, our sins testify against U.S.
Apparently there are many
crimes hidden, but if we could
have 3. complete record of all
crimes committed we would
awake to the fact that there are
few crimes that are completely
covered. The following is taken
from The Robesonian, Lumber
ton, N. G.
1t can't be done. No use try
ing to get away from it if you
murder somebody or kill some
body in a fight. Forty-four ears
is long time. measured in hu.
man life, but it is not long enough
to cover up homicide. A Rob-
eson county man who killed
another forty four years ago, es-
capped and disappeared complet-
ly has been brought back to face
trial. He talked too much to
chance acquaintance-and the
next thing he knew he was in the
hands of officers. Another Rob.
eson county man who killed an.
other got away with it for months
and nobody but his wife even
knew that man had been killed
and he is now awaiting Griai
also. Talking about warnings in
thunder tones
There is no doubt that sin is ar
accuser and one may feel secure
in his sin, but at a time least ex
pected he will realize that what
he thought was a profound Sc
cret has become an open book.

CRIES OF DEATH

Bulletins

Athens, Oct. 20, lBy the Associated
Press THE Greek revolution was ac-
claimed at a great mass meeting held
in the Place De Laconstitution yester-
day Citizens of Athens and members
of the revolutionary committee har-
angued the vast crowd Of people which
packed the spacious square, while air
planes circled above, releasing thous-
ands Of bulletins referring to the ma
tons greeting to the .'all saving re-
golution."
Cries of death to the traitors arose
when Colonel Plastiras, a member of
the committee, Quilting the aims of the
revolution, mercilesslyl dashed those
Greeks who, he charged while seeking
lay the blame for the disaster in
Asia Minor upon the army, were them
selves solely responsible by their mis-
demeanors for the allusion to the inn
This was an allusion to the inn
prisoHed former premiers and military
officials whose trial for treason awaits
the decision of the next national as

The imposing manifestation was ar
ranged by various public organizations,
who presented the revolutionary com
mittee with resolution approving the
abdication Of Constantine who can
never remount the throne of Greece
