GLENDALE
By PAUL PRY

The showers that visit us daily are
surely bringing flowers from lhelI
bOWers. and the fragrant apple, anu
neach blossoms that invade the atmos-
nhere on every hand gives ample evil
dence of a coming bOuntiful crop OF
fruit which delights the heart OF every
thrifty farmer. Quite a frost was seen
early Sunday morning, but we can see
no bad results from 1t.
Easter dawned bright and all ma
ture smiled upon us, and every PREF
tv girl was happy with her pretty
bonnet. The evening Easter service at
the church was appropriate ana eau
orate. The exercises by the Epworh
League were enjoyed by all, and tne
snecial music by the boys OF the BlDle
Glass was simply grand, and VIII
venture to say that no town on the
neninsula can boast of a great amount
of high class music, both vocal ana IN
s+runentaI. than can Ellendale. Ihere
are a number of overseas soIolers
whose vocal training while in the ar
nv. has qualified them far beyond the
nsua1 country lad. The splendid ser
mon TO the new audience gave our
new minister an opportunity to meet
a great many of his people.
