ranging elaborate decorations in pul
pit. and pew. Hyacinths, azalias. tu- !

tet will play in St. John's Reformed I
church at 5-40 o'clock.

They crucified the King! His head fell low
And from the tortured body fled the soul
While nature mourned, convulsed, and darkness fell.
Three days the sealed tomb! Men did not know
That countless ages worked toward this goal,
That life and heaven follow after hell.
Yet so it is in God's unfathomcd law;
Deeper the night, the brighter dawns the day
And all things equalize at final test.
Although the world is brutalized by war
And universal peace seems far away,
The Easter promise holds. HIS ways arc best!

"State street between Front and Third
might well bo the logical home of all
Harrisburg churches." the bishop was
quoted by his friends as saying one
time. To-day Grace Methodist and St
Michael's German Lutheran Church and
St. Patrick's cathedral grace the city's
broadest thoroughfare and tills nu
cleus with the Imposing Capitol build
ings in the background was the basis
of the Bishop's dream.
Practical realty men endorse the plan
from another viewpoint. "The old
churches In the central section of the
city are so situated that their sites are
in ever growing deirand by the com
mercial interests," said one. "That
means that It shouldn't be a matter
°" very man y tn°re years until the.v
will want to move into another quai
ter. And when that comes, why
wouldn t State street bo a mighty tine
p i? c t. to center the city's houses of wor
