Jic- Carrell spoke at a joint closing ex ercise of all departments, pleading for a fuller re-establishment of fam ily altars as n means of raising bet ter boys and girls; and for a greater icspect of mother and father by the boys and girls. William Rover sang, by request. "The Rose of No Man's Land;' 'and Ivatherine Klemm play ed a piano solo. The attendance was large, and to additionally carry out the atmosphere of comradeship, and in keeping with the day, candy pops were freely distributed at the close of the service, bearing the slo gan, "I go to Olivet —a real, live, likeable and growing Sundav School."' Plans are being laid for a Joint monthly closing exercise on the first Sabbath in March, when Walter Shaffer, the Dauphin aviator, will speak. It is expected that the ca pacity of the school rooms will be greatly taxed. Miss Ruth Rraseinjan, superin tendent of the primary departments, has announced the advancement of Miss Elizabeth Smith to Vie superin tendent of tlie beginners' depart ment, and the selection of Miss Flor ence Hill to be an assistant in the same department. Sylvester Howard. the school librarian, and his assistant. Lee Lutz, are busy recataloguing the library—occasioned by tlio addition of. nearly two hundred volumes as the result of the book social held on Friday evening of last week. it is expected that this work will be completed within the next two or three weeks. With Choir and. Organist Mrs. Charles A. Carl, formerly a resident of Harrisburg, lias been chosen soprano soloist of First Pres byterian Church. Lancaster, and re ports from that city show the wisdom of Mr. Carl's selection. For a short time, while the choir of Westminster Presbyterian Church, this city, was ir. process of reorganization, Mrs. Carl was leading soprano and charmed th e worshipers there by the beauty of her voice. Mrs. Carl also lias been soprano soloist of Zion Re formed Church. Chombersburg: Grace Lutheran Church, Witliamsport, and of the Carlisle Lutheran Church. The transferror the general offices of the United Telephone and Telegraph Company, of which Mr. Carl is gen eral manager, from this city to I.an caster, made necessary Mrs. Carl's removal from the music circles of Harrisburg. Recently, Choir and Organist is informed, the consistory of Fourth Reformed Church, of which the Rev. Homer Skyles May is pastor, de cided upon improving the music of the church, if possible, and to that end planned the engagement of an experienced leader, who in Wrn was to organize a quartet choir. It de veloped, however, that the expense was considered prohibitive and the plan, much to the regret of the con sistory committee, had to be dropped temporarily. A committee from the church advised the Telegraph that it was much to be regretted that the church finances would not permit the carrying out of the program. It Is well known that the war, with its vraied demands on congregations throughout the country, has criptlled many prosperous congregations and that a sufficient time has not elapsed to enable t orecoup their losses. Choirmaster George A. Hutman, of Second Reformed Church, has lilt upon a noval plan to stimulate mu sical interest in that congregation. Mr. Hutman Is convinced that not a few people find their way Into the pews of the church Sundays who would like to sing with the choir end LIVE WIRE BOOSTERS FOR ' BIG C.

All that is necessary to do is to advise the choirmaster by printed card of their intention and they are wel comed to the first rehearsal after the card has been received. The choir of Second Reformed Church is an ex cellent organization and )Ir. Ilutmin i long has given it his best services. ] Something must be radically wrong when tllere are 4 not several anthems and at least one individual number ! on its program, for this earnest di- j rector gives enough time out of a . busy week to outline a splendid mu sical program for the' Sunday ser vices..

"On ward we go, but still we hear them singing" which occurs in this num ber: likewise, the verse beginning, "Far, far away."
