Two microphones are placed in the church, one for the preacher and another for cholr and organ, But for the presence of the microphones the church congregation would not be aware that the service, ordinarily limited to the four walls of the church, was going out into thousands of homes over a great territory, Summarizing the first six months of broadcasting of religious services, the Rev. Mr, Anthony made the follow- ing report: “The first services were held on Sunday, October 1, when the morning service of the First Methodist church and a vesper service from the studio were broadcast, and services have been broadcast regularly from that date, Recently, an evening service| has been added to the program. On; Thanksgiving day, the Union service of the First Presbyterian and First| Reformed churches was sent out| through WGY. New Year's eve c.'lmui on Supday evening, so a special Com- | munity Watch-Night service, com-| mencing at ¥ p. m. was arranged at the First Methodist church and sent| out through the station. A wmm\m-i ity three hours service from 12 to 3 p. m. was broadcast Good Friday. “As far as possible, each church equipped with an organ and good/ musical leadership, has taken its turn. The ministers whose churches are nul) equipped with pipe organs have as a| rule had charge of the vesper service. | Occasionally out of town churches have been invited to send out their| services. | “At once the participating minis(t»rs? began to receive letters of apprecia- ! tion, telephone calls, and words of gratitude from members of their con. gregation or acquaintances \vhom‘ they met in the city.
