Spring's Glad Awakening
Beauty.
With Holy Scriptural Teaching at
the Christian and Hethodist
Churches.
christian church.
The auditorium of the Chris-
tian church was almost entirely
t filled Sunday with members of
various churches of the city, who
by invitation were in attendance
at the annual service of the
Knights Templar.
This lodge in full regalia was
well represented and conducted
an appropriate Easier service.
The choir under the leadership
of Vernon Marshall had prepared
sweet music for the occasion.
They were assisted by Joe Rucker
and Walter H. Marshall of Dal-
las, and Miss Margie Lovejoy of
this city.
Miss Jimmie .Jenkins' voice
elicited praise in the anthem
"God Be Merciful," as did also
Miss Margie Lovejoy in her well
rendered solo "The Dream of
Paradise."
Mrs. W. B. Nowsomo and Mrs.
J. D. Stiff were the artistic do-
signers of flora I decorations.
Tho pulpit was embowered with
palms and graceful trailing foli-
age. On either side tho altar was
a huge potted lily, impressive in
stateliness and purity, while above
the study picture wore red, and
pink geraniums. Bunting repre*
sonting Knights Templar color
was used in drapery.
ilev, (i. L. Bush, pastor, deliv
ered a most excellent address, re-
plete with scriptural history and
rhythm. His portrayal of
"Death" as "Beauty Sleep" was
especially beautiful.
« •
mkt hod 1st church.v
There was a large overflow at
night at the Methodist church to
hear the Scripture Oratorio ren-
dered by members of the choir
and band*? School.
Mrs. Gibson, who has been so
instrumental in cultivating Mc~
Kinney's musical ear, certainly
did credit to herself on this occa-
sion.
Each number was a compli-
ment within itself.
"With Waving Palms" was a
march and chotus bv a number of
young girls arrayed in white, car-
rying bouquets of sweet tlowers,
who to the organ's strain marched
from the entrauce to the pulpit,
where they sang.
Little Misses Ruby Johnson,
Fay Ingram and Paulino Rogers
delighted tho a'idtcnce with their
sweet voices, while no less appre-
ciation was shown Misses Allie
Johnson, Lula Allison Maggie
Furr, Ella Felton, Mary Lou
Bristol; Mesdames Forbes, Stiff,
Norvelle, Goodin and Heard; and
Messrs Hunter, Erwin, Jaruagan,
Gadberry and Piorce, who ren-
dered their respective numbers
most efficiently.
The pulpit was beautifully dec-
orated with tall palms and cut
flowe.s. The palms signifying
"Jerusalem or the land of palms"
in honor of which tho "Oratorio"
was given; and tho cut flowers
representing Easter love, beauty
and gladness.
Mrs. J. D. Stiff and Mrs. J. E.
Gibson displayed rare skill in
these decorations.
At the close of the service Rev.
Stuckey cordially invited every
one to attend tho Abe Mulkoy
meeting, which begins next Fri-
day, and asked the aid of all
Christian? in this meeting.
The Reply Courteous
Four-year-old Garland is de-
voted to his young and boautiful
Aunt Louise. Ono morning, as
she was talking to him from the
second story window while ho
save bei ecstatic answers from
the brick sidewalk, he suddenly
held up his chubby arms and call-
ed up to her:
"Throw yourself down in my
arms auntie! I'll catch you."
"Why. Garland, if I were to do
that," his auntie said, laughing,
"I might make a buckwheat cake
of you."
"Well, then auntie," said the
Eallant little lover, "I'd be the
uckwheat oake and you'd be the
honey J''—Selected.

Real Estate Transfers
In a pasture about two miles
from Georgetown a wonderful
cave has been recently discovered.
The first adventurers were forced
to dig an entrance for themselves,
and after descending into tho
strange cavern, they walked for
several hours in all directions,
trying to hnd some limit to the
immensity, but in vain. Stone
found therein resembles pumice
stone, particles of which have
been sent to a chemist for analy-
sis, It is found to be a first-class
tilterer and polisher and promises
to be quite valuable. It also con-
tain* rich deposits of guano,
which is being excavated tor fer-
tilising.
