ing In the Easter service, led by their
patriarch and dozen long
priests, CARRIED in vestments Of red
and gold. There are no pews in Rus
sian churches and the great throng
was PACKED in so tightly that women
were carried out, faintlng. All night
long they surged through the great
bronze doors, swaying like a field of
grain in the wind or slow swell on
the ocean. Gradually they pushed
closer to the altar, to come within
range Of the blessing Of the patriarch
and the priests. And always they were
bent in devotion, making the sign Of
the cross three times, and as many
as possible of them working their
way to the sacred paintings and
pressing their lips against the glass.
Throughout the watch service of this
Easter night the majority Of Worship
ers in the cathedral carried lighted
tapers in their fingers-thousands of
tiny flames.
City Settling With Joy.
We were told to be at the cathedral
before midnight, where we would be
met and escorted to a place inside.
AS we clattered in droshkies down
the paving of Tverskoi boulevard,
Nlkitski and Prechistenski, we passed
a steady stream of people, all bound
for church. The streets were lighted
better than I had ever seen them in
Moscow and the big apartment
houses lining the boulevard showed
light in every window. Life and cheer
all about. Laughter, merry voices,
and the ringing Of bells-it was like
Broadway.
At the cathedral there was q crowd
standing on the great steps which
looked like the overflow from a pre-
election meeting in Madison Square
garden. But here laughter ceased and
the spirit Of worship prevailed. II
was no longer New Years. 1t was
Easter. AS we walked through shad-
ed paths leading to the cathedral and
listened to the steady tramp of feet I
was reminded of the night before
Armistice day in Washington, when
thousands Of American pilgrims
marched, silently, four abreast, under
the trees Of the capitol grounds and
then filed into the rotunda to pay
their hushed, fearful homage to the
Unknown Soldier. There was the same
spirit Of nation at prayer-pausing
in the years work to take part in q
sacred rite.

Grant, who admits in his communi-

1T is not the tone quality which is
degrading he aserts. but the slov-

the instrument is made to bring out.

The rule of petty officials was

Any complaint to higher authorities
brought certain punishment. The
evils were those of a military occupa.

not permitted freedom of assembly,
many minority schools and institu-
