Brand, of Ker- nle, organized the third chapter at Creston. This is an excellent show- .ng for this time of the year, for fall is the proper time for organization of every description.

VISITORS' DAY IS HELD LAST WEEK AT CENTRAL SCHOOL Thursday last the pupils and teach era of the Central school were ut home tu their friends, when for several hours in the afternoon the work of the school for the past year was examined by a large number of those interested in the welfare of the children. H&ving passed through the many rooms, one could not help but be impressed with the excellent work thai is being done, as evinced by the fine exhibitions hunj,' on tlie walls of the several cluss room-i. One thing that was particularly noticable was the beauty and artistic nature of tht* displays, each room resembling an art gallery, while muny hnd exhibit* of more than ordinary interest. Among the latter was the representation of a .scene from "The Lady of the Lake," Kilena Isle. Loch Katrine. This was very cleverly done by pupils of Miss Woodland's clnss. Gurnet Blaine and Gordon Dezall. One has only to make a visit to tho school on an occasion of this kind to realize the amount of worK that the tenchers have to accomplish, and to become convinced that trying to implant the three "R" in the risinn nenerution is no sinecure bj any means. In this regard it was nf interest to note that some of the pupils hnve a proper conception of Uie none too enviable position of Iheir teacher, as may be judged from a few of the verses written by some of the pupils of Miss McDonald'-- loom at the Central school, which were on exhibition. If I were a teacher for just one day I'd let the children laugh and play; I'd give thi* big ones lots of work And see that none of them did shirk; I'd give the little ones lots of books With pictures of hears nnd running brooks. But I would only last one day If I'd let the work go on that way. If 1 were a teacher for jwst one day I'd make the pupils work away; I'd give them spellings they had never seen. So that they would think me mean; And I wouid be so strict a creature That they wmld long for their own teacher, Q . Many also took the opportunity to visit the manual training school, where they got a good idea of the fxcellent work being done by Mr. F. G. Morris in the training of the boy-. An interesting program of music wus put on during the afternoon by the clnss rooms, Miss Kathleen Edmondson being responsible for its eudership in the ubsence of Miss Me- Dermot, who had trained them in the work, but who was compelled to enve earlier in the afternoon. Miss Woodland and her staff have every renson to fee! gratified with the showing made. On Monday of lust week the South Wnrd School held their visitors' day. prior to closing for the holidays.

ERY DETAIL ISION Wallace gave an appropriate Kaster addrOBS on thr "Easter Dawn.'* At thifl service forty new member's were welcomed into fellowship, twenty-two by profession of faith, and eighteen j by certificates, and one hundred and sixty persons partook of the Sacrament. It was estimated that close on three hundred people were present at the morning service. Every available inch of apace waa utilized, the vestry also bein^ crowded. It was made evident to all th.it a new church is an Imperative need. The evening service was entirely choral, the pro- (Tram being arranged by Mrs. F. M. MacPherson. The building was again crowded. The deathless songs of Kaster were presented by the senior choir in two beautiful anthems, "Jesua is Risen/' and "The Resurrection Morn," the sulo parts being taken by Mrs. W. Nlsbet, Mrs. J. Norgrove, Mrs. G. S. Mcintosh, Mrs. F. M. MacPherson nnd Mr. Coleman. Mr. Vincent Kink rendered, in his own muster y style, a violin solo, while Mrs. N. R. Park was heard to advantage In the solo, "1 Know That j My Redeemer Llveth," from the "Messiah." The large congregation! joined heartily in the singing of thel welt known Kaster hymns. Tbe ser-1 vices were in every way memorable j and inspiring. The church was tastefully decorated by Mr. Willis, of Cranbrook Greenhouses. The children of the Sunday School met In the main body of the church after the moi ning service and the junior choir sang acceptably. Mr. G. J. Spreull conducted a special Kaster service for the children, the praise being led by Mr. J. M. Clark. For the week preceding Easter special services were conducted by the minister, Rev. J. Evans and Rev. V. H. McNeil assisting. All these meetings were well attended and a fine spiritual tone pervaded them. On Friday evening, at the Reception and Preparatory service a large congregation witnessed the coming into fellowship, and heard the profession of faith, from a goodly number of the senior Sundny school and Young People's Society members. It was the largest reception service in the history of the church, which speaks well for the future success of the United Church in Cranbrook. Next Sunday Rev. E. Leslie Best, B.D., of Fernie, will exchange pulpits with Rev. Bryce Wallace. Mr. Best is one of the outstanding young preachers of thc United Church. Eastertide at St. Mary's Church The Holy Week services, so impressive and devotional, were attended in great numbers at St. Mary's Church. ' On Easter morning for the com- munipn mass the attendance was the ' largest ever, children and adults all I receiving Holy Communion. For the ' High mass, the church was filled, the altar being beautifully decorated, and | the choir rendered Leonard's Mass in master fashion. The pastor, Rev. J Father J. P. Ehmann, preached on the resurrection of Christ. j Presbyterian Church Like most other churches, our Easter services were largely attended. The morning service, which was given over to the dispensation of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, was one of the largest in years. A gratifying phase of the service was the reception, or the announcement of the reception, of a number of new members, most of these being young people, and on profession of faith. It is very encouraging indeed to see the young people of our church respond so readily to the call of the Master. In spite of the inclemency of the weather, there was a large congregation nt. thc evening service. Special Easier music was rendered by the choir, thc anthems being. "1 Am He That Llveth," and "This Is The Day." Knox Church Notes The Women's Missionary Society will hold their annual Thanksgiving Offering on Wednesday. April 20th,. Mr. Morley, of Kimherley. will he the speaker of the evening. A musical program is being arranged by Mrs. J. L, Walker, and everyone is asked to be there. The meeting begins at 8 o'clock in the evening. Rev. R. G. MacBeth has just returned from thc Assembly's committees antl has reported that from the Atlantic to the Pacific the greatest enthusiasm prevails. Since 19-25 the membership, which was then about 150.000, has increased to 175,000. The two colleges, in Toronto and Montreal, report a large increase in the number of students, and the walls of denominationajism, which were thought to be crumbling, are being rebuilt. We are thankful that we are in n position to make our appeal to a certain temperament everywhere. Baptist Church The Kaster season is the season of triumph for the Christian church since it represents the triumphal cilmas to the life of our Lord, the risen Christ, Our religion centres not in a dead man, but in a living lAtrd. A very sincere nnd reverent congregation gathered in the Baptist Church on Easier Sunday morning lo take part in the worship "of II ini who was dead, and is alive again," The Kaster anthem presented by the choir was much appreciated. In tiie evening the choir had charge of the service, at whicli time tliey presented iheir Kaster cantata, the rendition of which occupied just about one hour. The «olo5, duets nnd trios, as well as the choruses, were very well presented indeed, wliich reflects much credit not only upon the Blngers, but also upon the choir leader, Mr. J. L. Calmer, and th.* organist. Miss Thelma Bartle. This is the second musical festival given by the choir in the course of a few months besides their regular work each Sunday. It is now almost seven months since I arrived in Cranbrook to take over the work laid down by Rev. W. T. Tapscott. The foundation had been "well and truly laid" under his ministry, so that it was not al all difficult to tuke up the work where he had left off. We feel that we have made some pt ogress, ami that our efforts are being rewarded in seeing men and women, boys and girls, heing brought into louch with the living Christ. V. II. MacNEILL, Pastor. Anglican ILaiW-r Services The congregation.*- ;ii Christ Church for ihe Kaster services were the best for Kaster during tin- last len years, except that the evening numbers were smaller, owing to weather conditions, which were more like Christmas than Easter. The special Kaster music was much enjoyed and the Chora! Eucharist at 11 a.m. was attended by an overflowing congregation. Mrs. J. S. Anderton was the recipient of much prnise for her rendering of the solo in the Easter anthem, "Christ Is Risen." The Easter offertory, whicli i.s a gift to the rector, was over $100. 26th to .*10th. Mr. Melrose was called upon to address the meeting and dwelt at some length with the great devastation which hns nnd is taking place from year to year in tin* depletion of the forests by fire. He pointed out that nt least 75',; of the 'forest fires were caused by human agencies and asked the various organizations to co-opcrato in the <*t'- forts being mnde by the various governments to educate the people along the lines of preventing forest fires. i Representatives of the Retail Mer- | chants and the Board of Trude will consider the matter of bringing the , attention uf this subject to the minds of the public in their regular adver- ; Liainp next week and by displaying ! cards in their windows and on their i delivery trucks or wagons. It was suggested that the Boy ! Scouts nnd (Iirl Guides organizations might put on a free tag day to furnish all with a tag bringing the matter to their attention. It was arranged that Mr. Melrose, or one of his representatives, arrange to address the schools on Monday afternoon. Rev, Bryce Wallace undertook to have the matter brought to tbe attention of the Young People's Society at a meeting to be held on Thursday night. E. T.
