EPIPHANY NEARIN B0TH ANNIVERSARY First Occupancy to Be Ob- served Coincident With Coming of New Rector. Coincldent with the coming of Rev. Dr. Ze Barney T. Phillips as rector of the Church of the Epiphany, in suc- cession to Bishop James E. Freeman, next week, the parish will, on July 6, observe the eightieth anniversary of the first occupancy of the church for divine service. The history ot Epiphany Church has been a very interesting one. In 1841 a small group of people conceived the idea of forming a new parish in the city. They were encouraged in this idea by Rev. John W. French, who was then chaplain of Congress and also city missionary. Several prayer meet- ings were held at the home of one of the interested group, the house then being located on 14th street near G. On January 6, 1842, the name, Church of the Epiphany, was chosen by an_assemblage of thirty persons, and shortly after it was declded to commence action through a mission church, and a room was hired, called Apollo Hall, on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue near 1ith street. Decision to Build. Apollo Hall was used during the week for various purposes, and on Sundays arranged for church serv- ices. This building was used but a short time, the decision soon being reached to build a house of worship. The site on_which Epiphany now stands was donated on_ October 24, 1842, by Miss Louisa Harrison, but was not accepted for several months afterward, as some of the church ; trustees thought the site was “too far ! uptown.” They desired the church i located at 12th_and E streets The { majority ruled, and the site donated by Miss Harrison was accepted. Defi- * nite plans then were taken for the erection of a church. The plan_ for the proposed edifice . was perfectly plain, without transepts !or chancel. The facade was orna- i mented by two small granite towers ion each side and a large window cpening into what then was the choir Fallery. As time went on, the con- | Eregation, getting fresh inspiration . !from succeeding rectors, gradually enlarged the church. Some of the largest and most im- portant changes occurred during the rectorship_of Rev. Dr. Randolph H . McKim. In the second year of his ministry at KEpiphany (1890), the ‘ ehurch was further enlarged and thoroughly renovated. 1In October, 11911, under the direction of this ven- erable rector, a large and complete parish house was put into service, the building including a large auditorium, a gymnasium, and numerous other rooms for church offices, meetings, etc. Later Improvements. The next important change in the architecture of Epiphany occurred during the brief rectorship of Dr. James . Freeman, successor to Dr. McKim. The improvements consisted of a new tower, of the block style, and the installation of & complete set of chimes. The chimes were given by {wo_ parishioners in memory of Dr McKim: the other improvements were made §y the members of the congre- gation, also as an expression of their love and esteem for the one who had served the parish for more than thirty-two vears. The church was resurfaced and many interior changes made for the enlargement and beau- Uification of the edifice, the total cost being about $80.000. There have been eight rectors since the first formation of the parish. The first rector received the munificent cum of 3600 per annum. and the ves- iry. in 1844, authorized the expendi- ture of $75 per annum for the serv- ces of a sexton . *The first person to be baptized in Epiphany is stil an honored and . 'much-beloved member of the parish. ‘As the first service in Epiphany was on Sunday, July 7, 1844, it seems ftting that a new rector of the church in 1924, eighty years later, should begin his ministry. - ‘Exhibit Bible Pictures. The Church Pageant and Drama Council of the Episcopal Church in the diocese of Washington, organized a vear ago under the auspices of the diocesan board of religious education, has on exhibit at its offices at 1417 K street northwest, a book of pictures collected by a worker in church pag- eantry in this city, showing Biblical costumes for both the Old Testament and New Testament periods. The pic- fures are principally reproductions of the well known sot collection, which is noted for its historical ac- curacy. Other plctures have been added so that the collection forms an excellent guide for amateurs who are * planning to reproduce Biblical scenes. Rev. J. G. Smith in Virginia. Rey. Jesse Guy Smith, director of religious_education of the Vermont Avenue Christian Church, is attend- ing the religious education confer- ihée of the Chesapeake area at Lynehburg, Va. which continues to Monday.

The bell was cast for the Unitarian Church of Washington in the Paul Revere foundry, Boston, in 18 by the son of the revolutionary patriot. Because of this close identification, the bell has usually been called the Paul Revere bell, and the local tradi- tion is to this effect. The bell meas- ures 33 inches in width and 30 inches in height, exclusive of fittings. The estimated weight is half u ton. It is in perfect condition and the tone is gen- erally regarded as exceptional, both in_quality and in volume. The D! ase of the bell was o possible by the help of citizens of Washington, the President of the| United States (James Monroe) having been a generous contributor. The bell hung in the old Unitarian Church at 6th and D streets until 1878, when it was reverently taken to the new church at 14th and L, streets. Since the demolition of that structure in 1920, the bell has been in storage. It has now been mounted in the steeple of the new church. Rev. Dr. Ulysses G. B. Pierce, the minister, is to speak on “Bondage and Liberty”' tomorrow morning and a program of special vocal numbers has been prepared PIANO IS GIVEN IN HONOR OF AUTO CRASH VICTIM Sunday School Class of Takoma Park Baptist Pays Tribute to L.

Dr. Clark, chancellor of the American Univer- sity, and Dr. J. Phelps Hand, District superintendent, are also to partici- pate. Rosedale Church first was known as Rosedale Mission and was estab- lished by Douglas Church under the supervision of the Women's Home Mission Soclety with Miss H. E. Worthington as resident deacones: It was first located on H street b tween 16th and 17th streets north- east. Here it met with success and Miss Worthington had as her assistants Miss Runyon and Miss Johnson, both graduates of, Bucknell, and both now missionaries 'in the foreign field. In 1911 Miss Worthington went to China, and the work was carried on by Miss Edith Smith, deaconess, un- der the direction of the Women's Home Missionary Society. After a year's service Miss Smith resigned and the Women's Home Missionary Society gave up the mission. Foun- dry Church then took up the work, paying the rent and seeing that the necessary supplies were furnished. It was at this period that Dr. Kettler was for a brief time supervisor of the work. Philip Lederer First Pastor. The first pastor was Philip Lederer, followed by William H. Honn.* Both of these men served without re- muneration. At one time the mission was lo- cated at 15th street and_Tenn avenue northeast. Here Rev. H. Huddleson was pastor = and served for a time without remuner. tion. It was here, also that the mis- sions was organized into a church by Dr. MacDowell, the District superin- tendent. In 1916 the Methodist Union gave the portable church, no longer needed by the congregation of Lincoln Road M. E. Church, and D. B. Gottwalls loaned the use of his lot located on Tennessee avenue between D and E streets northeast. Rosedale Church then moved to its present location. The lot was finally purchased and with it enough adjacent ground for all of the church units. Last summer the portable was moved to the rear and plans were made for beginning the mew church.

Enrollment at End of First Week Mounts to Seventy-Two. The first week of the new Bible school in Washington was concluded yesterday in the Fourth Presbyterian Church, 13th and Fairmont streets, with marked success. The school opened Monday with an enroliment of thirty-two and closed yesterday with an enroliment of seveénty-six. None of the ordinary craftwork is being taken up, many features of hand- work, all of which directly illustrates Bible truth, is being done by the boys and girls. One of the encouraging develop ments of the school is said to be the discipline and reverence on the part of the children. A system of credits for studies and also for other work is being successfully operated. Another feature is the system of honor marks for prayers in home on the part of the children, and for grace said by them at the table Rev. Dr. Ward is laying plans for another four or five weck period of this school in October. Mrs. Harry B. Gram is supervisor of the Fourth Church Bible school and Miss Ruth Tuckey, Miss Jane Hunt and Miss Garrett are the teachers.
