The stage settings were as impressive as was the nature of the service. The large orchestra, composed principally of members of the Philadelphia Orches tra, was seated in front of the lowered curtain, which arose shortly after 8 o'clock, revealing the chorus of nbout 00, all in the surplices and caps of the Kpiscopnl Chinch. The members of the chorus were drawn from the choiis of the churches of the diocese, and included boy choirs, whose fresh, on th fill voices formed a conspicuous and charming clement of the service, ns well ns the best mixed choirs. The festival opened with the proces sionnl march of the bishops and clergy, composed by the late Dr. David D. Wood, and conducted by Hollo F. Mait land, organist of St. Paul's, of Over brook. During the plnjiug of the pro cessional Ilish'op llhinciander nud cler gymen to the number of nbout sitty entered and took the seats of honor nt the front of the platform. Then fol lowed the singing of "America" by the huge choir and the audience, after which canie the p'incr of thanksgiv ing, said by the bishop, and then the "Te Deum T.audanius." composed and directed by Dr. Ilerbeit J. Tily, n com position well in keeping with the spirit of the celebration mid admirably sung and ltd. Memorial Poem Read The llev. John Mills Gilbert, rector of Trinity parish, of West Chester, next read the memorial poem. This. Bishop lihinelnnder announced, had been unanimously selected by n com mittee, consisting of Drs. Ilnrvey M. Watts, John Quinn and Felix Rebelling bring the church to Us tight position In civic life. These are: (1) We must believe Implicitly In the church. (") The church exists to bring men into touch with God. lint it exists also to bring men into touch with one another, and to do this we must mnke the church, far more thnn In the past, a meeting place for human brotherhood and perfect humanity. (H) This is the time for the church to utidertnlte creat and renl things or lose the opportunity of all time nnd fail in the mission on which it tins been sent. It must tnke n stand for rcn sonable hours of labor, for just mid even generous wages, for right living rnniUHnns nml fur n more enultable Uls- trlbution ot the wealth which Is the joint produce of capital and labor! Step .Must He Taken Furthermore, nsserted Doctor Man ning, It is time for the Church to take a daring step in the direction of Chris tian unity. There is danger in this, but no step of progress was ever taken that did not lie next door to peril. It may be that a far greater danger lies In inaction at this time. So, therefore, the Church should go forward in a spirit of courage and confidence to do what lies before it. After the address the anthem, "The .Morning Stnis Sang Together," for fliorus, soprano solo nnd orchestra, by George Alexander A. West, was sung, conducted by Mr. West. This is a con cise, work of great melodic trentment mid produced nu excellent impression. The thnnksgiving for victory from the Hook of Common Prnjer was then re cited by the bishop and the audience and Harry Alexander Matthews con ducted his line setting of Kipling's "Re cessional," for chorus, tenor solo nnd orchestra, a work which lias been given here before, but which lost nothing on lepetition. Dr. Howell S. Zullcic sans the solo part with splendid effect A ft the singing of thelimu, "O God Help in Age's Past," led bj I Tilj, the festival closed with (ionium -"Gloiiu in Hxcelsis," for choir, tluec solo voices and orchestra, led by Ilcmj S. Frj, organist of St". Clement's. i The musical compositions, which weie principal by local organist-corn posers, showed a high order of musical merit. Doctor Tily's "Tc Deum" nnd Mr. Mntthews's "Iteccssionnl" were given before at the concert of the Straw bridge & Clothier chorus, but it cannot be denied that both gained by the peiformance of last evening with the laige orchestra and choius. Mr. Hanks was the only composer to take advantage of the wonderful beauty of an a eappella chorus, and his anthem wns not only exceedingly well sung but is a musical composition of a high order.

The main theme wns in the form of n tribute to those who had given up their lives that liberty might live. After the poem the anthem. "The Souls of the .Righteous," composed by Harry C, Ilnnks, Jr., which wns se lected for the festival by competition, wns sung, being directed by Mr. Hanks. The work is n stntcly composition Hung without accompaniment, the composer therefore taking ndvantage of the tonal possibilities of the immense choir with out diverting voices of the orchestral Instruments nnd was given with fine effect. Bishop Jlhinelaudcr next introduced the speaker of the evening, Rev. Dr. William T. Manning, of Tiinity parish. New York, late chaplain of the 103d En gineers, of the Seventy-seventh Di vision. Doctor Manning spoke first of the reasons why the American people should give thanks at this time. One of 'tlie principal of these, he said, wns be cause the American, late as they were in entering the great conflict, had still time to play n most important part in the ending of the war. We should give thanks not only for the splendid con duct of our men in the service, but also for tVat of the men nnd women ntliome who answered the gicnt call. Always the American people were ready when the leaders weic leady to act. Wc should nlso give thanlw for that great company of our brethren, who, in their youth nnd strength, went forth into the great conflict never to return. I!!stor's (Jreutest Days We should give thanks for the privi lege of living nnd doing our part in the greatest dnjs of all human history. Wc are now faced with tremendous dangers; mighty forces of cv ii seek to destroy the foundations of human life nnd of society. Hut gieat as are those forces, tye forces of good, which are nt our command, are mightier, if we will but claim them. Amet ica has nn oppurtunity today such as was never before given any nation.

ONCE IT WAS.SHAD Herring This Time Visit Qlpucester. Camden Is Very Jealous Thousands of herring have nppenred in the Delaware river near Gloucester City, and the natives will be eating fish everj meal for a week. It didn't take long, after the herring were sighted, for men, women and chil dren to bring out improvised nets, bent pins, and houcst-to-gooduess hooks nnd lines. And they set to wtih a vim. Why the fish enme to Gloucester City is a mjstery. Gloucester said, "To view the city." Camden said, "IJecause, they mistook it for Camden," No other proof is needed to win you to it. Thousands have placed their orders upon the demonstration revealed in a short ride. Its performance is so convincing that one is not left with indecision as to its value. Consider What Thousands Say On every hand you hear praise for the Essex. Its newness created an interest that sent hundreds of thousands to Essex stores to see it. On the first day more than 5,000 rode and were won by its performance. Every day of the past four months has seen a swelling tide of admiration, until now all are saying the finest things for it. What Is It That They Admire? Is it performance or appearance low cost or economy of operation? One speaks of one quality, another of some other feature. That is accounted for by the experience those persons have had with other cars. The man who has owned a good light weight car recognizes in the Essex a wider power range. He sees a complete car. It has features he had never hoped to obtain in any car selling within his price range. The man experienced with fine cars sees in the Essex an equal quality to that with which he is accustomed, but at an immense saving in operating and maintenance cost. It Has Appealed To All Motorists Interest in the Essex has come from all classes of motorists. That proves the fulfillment of the aim of its builders. They intended it should be the car that would embody all the advantages of the two accepted types of cars. It should have lightness as well as dura bility performance as well as low first cost easy-riding qualities as well as economy of operation. They did not sacrifice the advantages of either they combined' them. That is what all have recognized. It is what we want you to know, and' thus our statement "Just you ride in an Essex."
