V ROGERS & GOODMAN (A Mercantile Trust,) ATHENA, OREGON TKF EASTER CANTATA WELL; PRESENTEDISUNDAY.NiGHT The Christian church' was filled to the doors Sunday night when the Athena community chorus presented the Easter Cantata, "The Story of the Resurrection" by Carrie B. Ad ams. The altar was beautifully decorat ed with blossoms, spring flowers and Easter lillies. A prelude by Mrs. Max Hopper and Invocation by Rev. D. L. Hackett preceded the Cantata. The chorus of about thirty-five voices was much enjoyed and por trayed the Easter story most ef ectively. Soprano solos worthy of mention included "There is s a Green Hill Far Away," by Miss Eva . Wells and "Christ the Lord is Ris'h Again" by Mrs.. David Stone and "Whosoev er Believeth Shall Live," by Miss Jennam.ae Read. A well balanced mixed quartet which gave several numbers was made lip of Mrs. Floyd Pinkerton, Mrs. Arthur Douglas, Mr. George Gerking and Mr. C. M. Eager. Miss Lorraine Terry's rich contral to has received much praise and with Jennamae Read and C. M. Eag er in the trio, "Awake, Awake Glad Soul Awake" was one of the fea tures of the ' program. 'Mr. Justin Harwood appeared to advantage in recitative numbers while the bass solos were well carried by Mr. Lewis Stewart and Mr. C. M. Eager. Other soloists enjoyed were Mrs. D. L. Hackett, Mrs. Lloyd Michener and Miss Dorothy Rodman. The male quartet, George Gerking, Mr. Charles Dudley, Mr. Lewis Stewart and Mr. C M. Eager sang "All Hail." The chorus was well supported by Mr. Lawrence Pinkerton and Mr. Fred Kershaw, first and second vio lins and Mrs. Max Hopper at the piano. An interlude by Miss Lois Johnson pianist, was a feature. Credit is due Mrs. R. B. McEwen who directed the production, and Mrs, B. B. Richards who had charge of the decorations. Many out of town people were present for the occasion and the chorus feels well repaid for its ef forts in this first presentation.

' "THE FRESHMAN" GQMINC TWO NIGHTS NEXT WEEK Harold Lloyd in his big comedy production, "The Freshman," comes to the Standard Theatre for two nights, next Wednesday and Thurs day. To satisfy yourself if this is not one of the best pictures of the year, ask anyone who has seen it, It is not often that the smaller reel subjects take almost equal promin ence with the feature subject on a photoplay program, but in this in stance, they do. In connection with "The Fresh man." there will be shown on both nights "Flashes of the Past," a two reel chronological review of princi pal world events of the last ten years beginning with Roosevelt's African big game hunt down to the inaugur ation of President Coolidge. Just imagine seeing the French call to arms;., Joffre at the Marne Russia battling through Galicia; the exodus from . Belguim; the Czar swept from his throne; Wilson sign ing declaration of war; Pershing ar riving in France; "Over There" Mar ines at Chateau-Thierry; the depth bomb; the flame projectors; tanks in battle; the 27th Division; great sea battle taken by Pathe camera men, and down to the world flight and the funeral , of Lenin, all from the film files of Pathe News as they have been carefully preserved. Tomorow night the Standard will present Henry B. Wathal, Roy Ste art and Marguerite Snow in "Kit Carson Over the Great Divide," a satisfying Western picture.
