In St. Francis Catholic church the Rev. Father J. H.

Cath erine Covach-Fraderich directed the singers. St. Patrick's Holy Rosary, the Church of the Madeline and all other Catholic churches had beautiful ser vices. In the Episcopal churches the observ ances of the day were elaborate and marked with great dignity and im presslveness. Trinity's choir, which is directed by the rector. Dr. A. A. Mor rison, did well in several well chosen selections. The choir is made up of mixed voices. In St. Mark's the boys and men's choir rendered an ideal com munion service and otlier numbers. Bishop Sumner Preaches. "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad it." This was the text from which the Rt. Rev. Walter T. Sumner. Bishop of the Episcopal diocese of Oregon, preached yesterday morning in St. Stephen's pro-Cathedral. Bishop Sumner paid tribute to the splendid work that had been done by Dean Ramsey in the ten years in which lie has been in charge at the pro-Cathe dral.

If a man would be ready for heaven he must make his heaven nere first. The mortal must put on the garment of immortality and cast the light around among men." Dr. Dyott pointed out that Jesus placed the present tense value on eter nal life. Life here is not a candle to bo snuffed out. It Is a preliminary to the greater and sweeter life to come, which is eternal. Dr. Dyott compared human existence to an April morning; the shower and the rainbow and the sun all gleaming at the same time. The shower, he id, was the sorrow of the world, the ratnbow the rays of gladness cast about by faith and hope, the sun the eternal joy of service to God and to mankind. Twenty-six Join Chnrch. Twenty-six new members, seven ba bies and five Bmall children were re ceived into the. church. The altar of the church was beauti fully but simply decorated In lilies and greens. Especially impressive was the spe cial music rendered by the choir and by Professor Bruno Colettl on the cello. "The tragedy of any man's life is not in its littleness, but in the fact that it is un-irradlating. because no divine splen dor falls upon it," said Dr. John H. Boyd in his sermon at the First Pres byterian Church yesterday morning. The minister made a plea for his hearers to lift their lives above the commonplace by taking into them some divine reality. 'It is our fortune that we are not great and' never can be." he said. "So thought of ours or deed which we do will be remembered by the generations of a thousand years hence. Our lives are but petty pendulums. It seems, vi brating between an office or place of business and our homes. Yet with this very comraonplaceness our lives have Infinite possibilities if we will but per mit the divine splendor to enter with its ennobling influences." The speaker said that man needs something higher than himself to nerve him to do great deeds. Easter Aathcma Sung. Several Easter selections were given by the choir, among them being: O, Day of Chrlat," by Bartlett; "Unto Him That Loved Us." by Stewart: "On TOP A FEW GLIMPSES AS THE CROWDS WERE GOING TO CHVHCH.

We are here to celebrate, but unless we have come to worship, we have come In vain. "The greatest need of the hour is Jesus In the home. A union with God is necessary before you will find your greatest troubles are easy to bear. This is a day of consecration." There were four babes in arms christened and several others baptized. Many new members were received in the church on confession or by letters from other churches. Beautiful music added to the impressiveness of the oc casion. Communion ended the services which lasted almost three hours. STYLE PARADE HELD KNIGHTS TEMiPLARS WORSHIP ' - V Easter Observance Held by Members or Fraternal Organization. Washington Commandery No. 15, curiosity? Do we come here through sentiment? What does the day mean to you. 2000 years after the resurrec tion of our Lord? "I do not have to ask the question of those -who came early in the morn ing to the altar. This Is not a day for much speaking, rather, for thinking, praying and introspection." Word Snokea to Sad. Rev. T. W. Lane, pastor of Centenary Methodist Church, preached his Easter sermon to a large congregation. In it he said: "The resurrection of Christ Is the foundation rock on which the fabric of the Christian faith stands. All cnria- tton history is to be seen in the light .of the resurrection of Christ. That gone, all is gone. Doubling back on history in the light of the resurrection I want to speak a word to those of Jesus, every miracle has a new who are not Joyous. If you have come 1 meaning, every message a larger inter fere loaay wun your hearts more or le. filled with sin. then come to Christ with contrition and find forgive ness and peace. "Have you ever stopped to think what the world would be like with dead Christ? His resurrection is the divine mystery, but it cannot be denied. It Is history. Let this be to you the day which the Lord hath made and may you rejoice and be glad In it." In Atkinson Memorial Congregation al Church Sunday school exercises were conducted under the direction of W. B. Bethune and Mrs. E. Palmer. The au ditorium was filled. After the ad ministration of baptism came a recep tion of members by the pastor. Dr. Frank W. Gorman. Dr. George E. Pad dock and 'Dr. D. B. Gray presided at the sacrament of the Lord's Supper. The sermon by the pastor was on "The World's Greatest Miracle." He said: "If Christ did not rise from the dead, then what happened? If the disciples had stolen the body, why were they doubting? If the Roman soldiers had stolen It, why did they not produce the body when the disciples preached Mesus' and The Resurrection'? Every drop of blood running through a man's veins must be touched with the resur rection life If he is to live again. What kind of a moral universe would It be from which a man like Jesus could be blotted out? I believe that nothing worthy to live shall ever per ish." Hallelujahs Are Suns. At the evening service the chimes of Trinity Church. New York, were played on the Victrola as a prelude. W. Rob inson sang wtth fine effect "Hallelu jah. Christ Is Risen." The choir, under the direction of Mrs. E. B. Bischoff, sang the cantata "Allelujah, Hall With Gladness." The church was beautifully decorated with Easter lilies and palms. An Easter offering of more than 125 new members distinguished the morn ing services at the First Methodist Church yesterday morning. At the close of the sermon Pastor Frank L. Loveland's assistant read a list of 115 names of new members who sought membership in the church. Not all of these were able to be present at the service, but those who were came forward and clustered about the chan cel rail solid phalanx of men and women, ranged three deep and semt clrcling across the entire width of the auditorium Besides those who came in response to the reading of the names, many protRtion. every prospect a wider hori zon." lOOO Membership Mark Attained. In the Sunnyside Methodist Church the 10SO membership mark was reached yesterday by the receiving of 66 new members. There were 672 in the Sun day school. Since the arrival of Rev. R. Elmer Smith as pastor the church has added 260 members. The Rev. A. C. Moses presided at the services in Waverly Heights Congrega tional Church. In his Easter sermon he said: "The angel's announcement to the two Marys, 'He Is risen as he said.' com pletes Christ's victory over death. It has been shorn of Its power; its fear has been removed: Its occurrence has been made. In part, a scheme of life. Christ is greater than his resurrection in himself. In his being and in nis character. When he arose, tne con queror of death, he took with him the same body In which he died on the cross. He died physically and he rose physically. It was Christ's body that was crucified, not his soul. That which needs resurrection Is that which has been killed." Greeks Observe Sacred Day. The Easter services of the Greeks of Portland, which began at'ti o ciock Saturday night at Trinity urcnoaox Church, Seventeenth and Taggart streets, were completed yesterday aft ernoon with exercises beginning at 2 n-Mnric. The services were In charge of the priest. Rev. Panaretos Panagio- topoulos, and were carnea oui accord ing to the beautiful and impressive ritual of the Greek church. The pastor also spoke, dealing with a fitting Easter subject. The Greeks attended the serv ices In large numbers, the day being observed as a sacred holiday by them. St. James' English Evangelical Lutheran Church. West Park and Jef ferson streets, perhaps held the largest cmgregation in its history yesterday, and realizing that the attendance would be large, extra chairs were placed in the main room and In the balcony and in addition the ante-room, used for Sunday school, was thrown, open. The decorations were Easter lilies, cala lilies, palms, ferns, dogwood and festooned cedar boughs. Day One ef Consecration. Dr. J. Allen Leas, the pastor, chose "The Place Whers He Lay" for his topio and said In part: "Easter Sun day is in commemoration of the most glorious day in Christendom, yea in Knights Templars, yesterday morning attended the Easter services in the Rose City Park Methodist Church, under the direction of Rev. W. W. Youngson, sir knlcht and prelate, who delivered me sermon on the subject "The Way of the Cross." The Knights Templars, in uni form, marched to the church from the Rose City clubhouse, and were received by the congregation, which had risen as the knights filed in. Eminent Sir Theodore F. Drake was in command, assisted by Sir Harley H. Young, gen eralissimo, and Sir W. W. Youngson, prelate. Dillon B. Grant, right eminent commander and head of the Knights Templars In the state, and Frank D. Winn, past grand commander of ldabo, were the honored guests. The services were opened by the pre lude "Pastorale," rendered by Mrs. W. C. Schmitt, director of the choir, at the piano. Then followed the responsive reading, in which the knights took part. Washington Commandery quartet, it. i. Oehr, Dr. W. C. Adams. N. B. Stone and E. N. Wheeler, rendered the "Resurrec tion." Rev. Mr. Youngson delivered the ser mon, which related to Easter and the presence of the Knights Templars in the services. He told or tne foundation oi the Knights Templars In the 11th cen tury at the time .when pilgrims were visiting the shrine of Christ at Jerusa lem, which was then in tne possession of the Turks and Saracens. The pil grims were persecuted, he said, and subjected to many forms of hardships before they could visit the shrine, and nine knights banded together for their protection, to clear the highway lead ing to Jerusalem of those who preyed upon the pilgrims. Rev. Mr. Youngson then pointed out that while the days of the knights were past, when the sword was used for the protection of pilgrims, yet the knights remain today for the protection of the Innocent, womanhood and the defense of the widow and the oppressed. "And hence the swords our visiting knights are wearing here today." said the pastor, "are symbols, not of war, but of mercy and brotherhood, of pro tection for the oppressed,- and of pro tection of womanhood and in the de fense of the cross of Jesus Christ. Chivalry may pass, but the same spirit that founded the Knights Templars re mains active today. The conflicts are still here today, and there Is need of the protection of these knights." The pastor then discussed "The Way of the Cross," when the services were brought to a close with the benediction. The commandery marched back to the clubhouse. One of the beautiful features of the morning services was the receiving into the mombershlp of eight girls, all mem bers of the Sunday school, by Rev. Mr. Youngson. The church was attractively decorated, and on the rostrum was the banner of tne commander.

Father, husband or brother was In evidence, but scarcely as a part of the picture, being along principally as an unobtrusive background of neutral tint against which the warring . colors made handsome display. -With the "safety first", idea prevail ing, the umbrella was present, but was carried rather shamefacedly . by the male of the species, for brightly colored sunshades would have been inore in keeping with the day. Old Sol was shy and seldom glared forth fiercely. It was more the bashful but coquettish air of the debutante, which reached its boldest at the noon hour, as a benediction on the throngs ushered from the churches. ' Day Sets Blood Leaping. The vivid coloring of the Spring styles was not without its rival in the complexions of Portland's fair women, for the glorious day set the blood leaping to cheeks paled by Winter skies. An insistent voice, that of the woman who stayed at home, is heard, saying, What was worn! What are the latest styles?" It Is a rather difficult ques tion to answer, but, here goes. The military touch, to be expected from the War's influence on fashions. was present, but not so strikingly as advance styles led one to believe. It was seen particularly in the soldier like buttoning of semi-military cut Jackets, the flowing officer's cape, the enveloping collar and the absence of trimmings. Then, of course, there was the Tipperary hat Why "Tipperary," when it is a Scotch Highlander's saucy bonnet. is shrouded in milinery mystery. The lines of dress, in the main, were severe and more plain than in former seasons, but not without attractiveness. Hats Mostly Small. The severity of dress was reflected in the hats, which were -on simple lines, mostly small, depending more on their shape than trimming for style. Feathers were not greatly in favor, and plumes were scarce. Ribbon as a trimming found much favor. - Flowers? There were gardens of them, and they formed possibly the chief adornment of the Easter bonnet. Saber bows accentuated the meek ness of many of the new hats, while turban bows gathered others under their wing. New varieties of the tricorne were in evidence. On this gen eral type was a star-pointed shape, with purple wistaria blossoms over flowing the brim. There was also to be seen a panache of flowers, set like a sentinel in the front of an attrac tive hat of black, the flowers a riot of coloring yellow, white, pink, orange and purple. Contrasting colors were featured in the suits. The favorite was a com-; voflern torpedoea have a rants slisntly binaujn of black and white, not the exceeding 7voo yards.

Experts from Cramp's shipyard in Philadelphia have arrived In San Francisco and made a preliminary examination of the J engines of the liner Great Northern, troubles of which forced her to put back to port last week on the trip to Flavel. The Great Northern has been lying at her dock ever since and is likely to be laid up for several weeks. At the time the Harvard and Yale came to this coast four years ago they had turbine trouble and experts had to be brought from the East, as has now been done with the Great Northern. The Northern Pacific, of the same line, has passed through the Canal and is due to arrive In San urancisco nexi Sat urday. News From Oregon Ports. ASTORIA. Or:. April 4. (Special.)
