Coming Retween-the annual church meeting and the New Year's supper was the thirty-fifth organ recital at |Fy 5 o'clock by Organist H. L. Yerring- ton, assisted by Miss Ruth Lathrop Potter ,soprano. A good introduction to the program of nine numbers was Bach's Fugue in G minor. The full sweet chords and majestic movement in Handel's Minuet from Berenice de- lighted the audience. Forceful was the interpretation of the Romanza and In- termezzo written by Mabel Howard McDuffee. Pleasing was the rendering of the familiar tune Aurelia, which is one of ten offertories on American hymns. The three movements of Rheinberger's Pastoral Sonmata in G were skilfully given. Schubert's Ser- enade, always a welcome number in a program of music, was greatly ap- preciated. There was a joyous note in Wachs' Hosanna, the weil chosen clos- ing number in the recital. Miss Potter was heard in two selections, the aria, With,Verdure Clad, from Haydn's Creatfon, and Gounod's Adore and Be Still, given in sweet tone and exc: lent phrasing. Church Supply. At the ciose of the organ recital all adjourned to the chapel, where a sup- per of cold meats, scalloped oysters, pickles, biscuit, coffee and cake was served by this committee: Mrs. Alble Hale, Mrs. C. J. Abell, Miss Fanny L Wiliams, Mrs. D. W., Underwood and Miss Addie R. Heath, the young peo- ple assisting at the different tables.

There are two perform- ances daily, at 2.15 and at 8 o'clock. This picture will be seen here in all its marvelous completeness, something that the big cities have not been able to_clam. The Boston Globe: “As a work of art it is so wonderful and so_beautiful and =5 full of life that it Tobs one of the power of criticism. It is a great work first, last and all the time, and it stamps Mr. Griffiths as'a master ar- tist in whom the power of visual inter- Dretation reaches a height that cannot be easily comprehended at one sitting. In such a man there must be the im- agination of the poet, the creative po- wer of the artist, and with these the genius of the architect, the dramatist, and the modern stage manager, who understands all the subleties of stage effects in their relations to. human e€motions. You are lost in amaze- ment at the acting of these hun- dreds and hundreds of people in this drama. The Birth of A Nation is a picture ‘hat satisfies the desires of every class of people. To the meere amusement secker, it opens up flelds of action and heart "interest that sends the blood rushing through the entire body. Its thrills are big thrills, and the patriotic fever with which the subject inspirtes all isfelt long after the performance is over. To the historian, there is a new knowledge, of facts and conditions during the troublesome times of the Great Rebellion and the Reconstruce 1 | tion Days that is not to be found in or- dinary histories. To the lovers of the spectacular there are scenes of such gigantic magnitude as to make one feel almost lost in it all. One gazes with amazement at the thrilling scenes . | Scenes of battle, the terrible carnage and hotror of war; the awful destruc- tion in the ranks of the soldiers as they blindly charge against the de- fences of the opposite forces. The scenes presented before the spectator are without equal in any kind of a production ever offered the public. Such massive and masterful presentations as Sherman’s March to the Sca, The Burning of Atlanta, The Surrender of Lee to Grant, The As- sassination ‘of Lincoln, have ail been handled in such a way thata it seems | O is transported o as though one ‘back the days of the great conflict and is md;mlorml:zw?mmm Rev.
