Rev, T. 8, Kennedy became in- cumbent of the Church of St. John's the Evangelist, Toronto, and died soon after in 1863, and was replaced at Bowmanville by Rev, Alexander MacNab, who re- mained as rector here until 1891, the year of his death. Rev. Dr. Macnab was a remarkable figure in the building up of the English Church here and was extremely popular among his congregation and also the residents of the town, The rectors for Bowmanville since the death of Dr. Macnab are.

The completion of this remodel- ing program has given a beautiful effect to the interior of the church, The Dossal behind the altar is a copy of a fifteenth cen- tury Venetian tapestry, the con- cealed lighting effect adding greatly to the color, The organ which has been in- stalled for only a few years is a splendid instrument for the size o fthe church. Its quality of tone is superh, A number of years ago a peal of tubular bells was installed in the tower, the ringing of whieh is a constant delight to the residents of the surrounding country. There are ten tubes which have a most accurately tuned register, The ringing 1s accomplished by the pper system hy a carilloneur who plays twice on Sunday, The hells are shortly to undergo re- pairs, The bells were installed manship.

EASTER SERVICES AT THE EMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, April 6.--Baster is to be observed in town churches with suitable sermons, floral deco- rations, and special music. Of all the special seasons of the year, a considerable number of people at- tend . the Easter services. The thought of Easter in the religious sense of the word brings to one's mind the feeling of contentment and happiness. Lent ends on Eas- ter Sunday, and the mind again turns to the time long ago when a solitary Man gave His life that the people of the world might be saved, and that sins be forgiven, Appropriate sermons will be preached in the five churches of this town. Rev. J .U. Robins, of Trinity United Church, will speak in the morning on the *"Resurree- tion" and in the evening on "The Disciples' Conception, "Rev. R. J. Shires, M. A, of St. John's Eng- lish Church, will talk on the "Res urrection" Sunday evening. Rev, D. W. Best, D.D, of St. Paul's United Church, will preach on the "Meaning of Easter," AN UNEVENTFUL GOOD FRIDAY (By Staff Reporter) Bowmanville, April 6.--The eri- minal investigation department of this town had an uneventful Good Friday. No extreme cases of law- breaking occurred which as a rule is contrary to general statistics. Chief of Police Venton reported no casualties for his department. It was also stated that no conflagra- tions occurred to mar the peace- ful day of days in the year, TORONTO CHOIR Holy Trinity Artists Delight Congregation in St. John's | Church (By Stam Reporter) Bowmanville, April 6.--The all- male choir of Holy Trinity Angli- ean Church, Toronto, composed of men and hoy singers sang the "Cru- eifixion" to a large congregation in St. John's Anglican Chureh here Thursday evening. The choir was fader the direction of G. Hold, +A., Mus. Bach., and consisted of 35 members. Rev. George Roe, of Holy Trinity Church, accompanied the choir to Bowmanville, and as- sisted in the service. Rev. R. J. Shires, rector of the parish, also assisted. The "Crucifixion" is one of the most well-known compositions thafll is sung in the church. The musie- al anthems and solos were sacredly given and were enjoyed by the many who attended. Such a chance seldom comes to Bowman- ville for citizens to hear such a splendid offering, and the way in which the celebrated choir sang th masterpiece was a revelation i deed. George Coles, tenor, and Emile Schiff, bass, were the main solo- ists. Their work in the *"Crueifix- ion" could not have been replaced, for their voices were wonderfully styled for the 'anthems. The chor- us numbers filled the church with a glorious sound of music, which quite overwhelmed those listening. The sweet and well-trained voie- es of the boy singers was certain- ly never heard to such advantage as last night. It was a privilege and a treat for members of this community to hear the boys of Holy Trinity Church. Their singing will not be forgotten for long years, such an impression did they make. It is through the boys' voices alone that the soprano parts are sung. The large numher of men's voices formed a wonderful background for the *Crueifixion'", Enough may never be said for the fine effect that there singers caused. The sac- red music which is composed for the story of the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the way in which is was sung last night will make history in the church here, SACRED CANTATA MOST IMPRESSIVE "Olivet to Calvary" Cleverly Presented By Trinity Choir (By Staff Reporter) eration for ing. for an early recovery, who sorrowed," "Standing 'mid the mocking soldiers," "Droop, Sacred Head.

The music and chorus work as well as the solo selections were exceedingly delightful, The organ accompan- iment was played by the director, Francis Sutton. The cantata {itself comprises some of the most beautiful sacred musical and vocal selections to be found, The story centers around the time of Christ's crucifixion, from the point where Christ is he- trayed until the time when He is taken to Calvary to be crucified by the mob. The solo work throughout this story was taken by trained artists and proved ex- ceedingly well handled. Rey. J. U. Robins, pastor of the church, opened the evening with a short address which took the form of introducing the occasion as Good Friday Observance. Mrs. T. W. Cawker sang several times throughout the evening and her splendid voice added greatly to 8 musical masterpiece. Miss Margaret Allin also contributed several numbers, doing so with ber usual good style. Melville Dole; and Samuel Leggott were among the male singers, their work never failing to be appreciated to the fullest extent by the listen- ers. A number of the choruses were unaccompanied, which brought out in a remarkable way the beau- tiful musical values of the can- tata, *'Twas Night oe'r Lonely Olivet" proved to be the most ap preciated chorus number, but the uRaccomp: selection "0 Thou Whose Sweet Compasssion'" also gained its share of merit. 'The "Saviour King," the number which describes the Christ on the way to Calvary, was well deliver- ed and the chorus Christianson, into the cantata and sung by the choir in splendid style. Alto- gether the cantata represented many hours of real musical study on the part of the choir and also on the part of the director, Mr. Francis Sutton.
