Methodist Church Notes.

The Easter services at the Methodist church were a great success. There were 451 at Sunday school and $66 was given for the missionary collection. The morning service brought out a large congregation and Dr. Curnick preached upon “The Resurrection of Christ.” The Epworth League had 66 present. The sacred concert at night was one of the finest concerts ever given by the church. The entire church building was crowded from the front doorsto the wnidows in the Sunday school room. All the singers did their parts with great credit and the solos ana quartettes were greatly appreciated. The organ pieces played by Mrs. Gwin were wonderful and delighted everyone. The Methodist church is prospering along every line of church activity and the Sunday school and congregations are larger than they have ever been. The Brotherhood will give a supper and entertainment Friday evening, May sth. It is expected to have Dr. Tillitson, of Greencastle, as tne speaker of the evening.
