GREENEVILLE NEWS Large Attendanoce at the Congregation- al Church—Sunday School Exercises At the Easter moraing service of the | Greeneville Congregational church there was a large attendance, and the pastor, Rev. C. H. Ricketts, delivered a forceful and convincing sermon on Ividences of the Truth of the Resur- rection of Christ. Rev. Mr. Ricketts took for his subject the 89th verse of the 24th chapter of Luki Behold, see my hands and my feet that it is I, myself, handle me and see, for a spirit hath not flesh and bones as ye behold me_ having Rev. Mr. Ricketts said: Life and not death is dominant in religion. Its evidence is seen in the resurrection of Christ. From the call of Abraham to the time of Christ death was dominant. The most far- reaching event in the annals of man- kind is the resurrection, yet the truth || of the resurrection is widely question- ed. The word resurrectiom means but one thing, and not several things. It comes from the Latin and means the Tresuming of life. On the Sunday morning following the crucifixion the tomb where the body of Christ lay was empty. People Who question the truth of the resur- rection say that Mury made a mistake in the location of the tomb, and had come ecross one that had never been used. This is barely possible, but it 18 not probable that Mary would mis- take the place where her Lord I Others say that the body of Christ had been carried away by his disciples and had been secretly buried. This again is not probable, because after the crucifixion Christ's disciples were like lost sheep, without a leader. Everything points to the truth of the Tesurrection. Furtber evidence is shown in the appearance of Christ to his_disciples when he said: “Behold, it is I A spirit hath not flesh and bones.” Tk | the living Christ and not the dead, At _thé offertory Mrs. Louis O. Pot- ter rendered a_ solo, accompanied by Miss Leutla Kramer, orgamist. The floral decorations, Baster lilies and paims, were beautiful. Easter Exercises.

The first Methodist church was at- tractively decorated Sunday with Has- ter lilles, azaleas and potted plant: The pastor, Rev. M. R. French, spoke lon The Power of the Risen Christ Power 1s His by right of inheritance and by right of conquest, he began. There had been rebellion in the world snd_Christ. went forth to war and on Calvary He won the victory. In the tomb another foe, death, was con- quered. Thine is the power and the glory forever. All power before the throne in Heaven is His. This ls for | our comfort who need a strong friend |in the Son of God, one who can save lto the uttermost. This power is in the hands of the only one who has the right to use it and in whose hands that power is safe. The Lord reigneth, {let_the people rejoice. The keynots of the sermon Christ's | Power, was emphasized in anthem and Easter response. The solo in the an- | them was rmendered sweetly and ef- fectively by Miss Esther Jones. At the evening service a cantata, The Tri umph, was given. The chorus work was well sustained, the voices blending admirably. The solos by C. F. Fra- zler and Clement Bushnell were most excellent. Mrs. F. H. Bushnell gave the alto solo, Mary's Song, in fine voice. Miss Martha Brown's recita- ltive was much enjoyed as was the duet by Miss Ruth Nichols and Miss Esther Jones. The programme in de- tail follows: Prolude, Joyous Festival March: processional, Christ Is Risen, tenor solo, C. F. Frazier; cantata, The Tri- umph: recitative, Who Is This That Cometh baritone solo Clement Bush- nell; chorus, Glory Be to Jesus: duet, Sweet the Moments, Misses Nichols nd Jones: chorus, Let Saints on Earth; soprano recitative, In the End of the_ Sabbath, Miss Martha Brown: solo, Miss Martha Brown: solo, O Deaih Where Is Thy Sting?

At Sacred Heart church the services, special music and beautiful floral dec- orations all were In accord with the spirit of the day. The singing at the children's mass at 8.30 o'clock was joyous and expressive of the meaning of the words sung. Miss Mary But- ler accompanied with her violin. At 9. o'clock the Holy Name society received holy communion in a bod: There was benediction at 2.30 o'cloc in the afternoon. At the high mass at 10 o'clock the singing by the cholr was of especialiy fine quality and harmony. The soloists wera Misses May Pounch, Katherine Butler and Bessie Callahan, John Kingsley and Benjamin Houlihan. Miss Elizabeth Malone, organist, had full charge of the singing. Rev. Charles BErennan's sermon at s tnass was upon the resurrection the great miracie of the Chriatian faith. The Christian religion is built upon the resurrection of Jesus. The fact has been fully proved Part of this proof is the silence of the Jews about the event. The faithful women never foresook Him, they were first at the tomb. The disciples were slow to belisve until Our Lord proved Him- self to them. He lived with them for- ty days, teaching them in order that there should be no doubt concerning His resurrection. 8t. Paul tells us that our bodies shall be made glorious after our resurrection even as was Christ’s _body. It is no wonder that on this Easter day the gladness of re- Jolcing is expressed chureh in her leluias and flowers, All sad thoughts should e place to joy in our hearts The aliar decarations were {lilias, ferns palms and carnations. the 'sanctuary were carnations i palms, and roses, potted plants and ferns were placed at different points, | the whole producing a fine effect.

In both carols and anthems the good work accomplished showed careful training. Azaleas, Easter lilies, begonias, spirea, stock, ferns and palms made the church most beautiful for Baster Sunday. The flowers were afterwards sent to those unable to be at the ser- vice. The pastor, Rev. G. H. Ewing, took for the text of the morning address, We Would See Jesus. He called the attention o fhis hearers to the differ- ent classes of people who are seek- ing satisfaction and rest. He spoke of | what reward some fined in literary pursuits and in other walks in life. | No person today has perfect rest un- til he sees Jesus. He is the one whom the World is secking. Perfect rest | and satisfaction cannot come until He | nd Party in Honor of Mr. and Mrs. Wood.
