VESPER SERVICES AT
STAYTON KCTKODIST
Chorus and Orchestra first
Methodist Delight Big
Audience
Xature herself seemed to lend kind
ly ear to the efforts of the First Chris
tian church chorus and orchestra Sun
day afternoon, as they conducted vesper
services at the Wayton Methodist
church, in fulfillment of a promise
made by the director, Dr. H. C. Epley,
that a concert would be given at some
time. The trip was made by automo
bile, or rather many automobiles loaded
to the runningboards, and was thor
oughly appreciated by all the chorus,
who derived as much enjoyment from
the trip as did the Stayton people.
The services began at 4 o'clock, and
continued for almost two hours. Eaeh
number was vigorously applauded, the
male quartet being especially favored
in that manner. A number by the or
chestra opened the program, after
which the chorus sang the anthem,
"Come Ye Disconsolate." This was
followed by paper by the Rev. M. F.
Home, of Htayton. After a beautiful
solo by Miss Vie Cave, the ladies' quar
tet, composed of Mesdames Peterson,
Hwart and Porter and Miss Vie Cave,
sang a difficult but well rendered selec
tion. The chorus next gave the anthem,
"River of Life," and then came one
of the stellar numbera of the service, a
solo, "Abide With Me," by the popujar
concert soloist, Miss Pauline Liska.
Her rendition of this piece was almost
faultless, and the selection was sung
in a number which attracted and held
the attention of the house-
The nrineinal address of the day, a
patriotic talk on "Echoes of the Old
Bell." was delivered by Dr. H. C. Ep
lev. telline of the many times the Amer-
iean soldier hs gone forth to fight for
liberty in response to the eono or tnat
dearly beloved Liberty bell. His .vivid
description brought tears to the eyes of
his bearers, as lie tola or me saurjuicw
made, and those which America atands
willing to make iu defense of her great
foundations, Liberty and Justice.
Mrs. Peterson and Miss Cave sang a
selected duet after Dr. Epley 'a address.
Then came a nature anthem by the ohor
ns, "A Rose Brightly Glowing." Rev.
F. T. Porter, taking for his general
theme "Music," told of the many kinds
of music to be found in the world, ne
spoke of labor, of faith, and of trust
music, because 01 tneir oaiuranj

forth a vigorous nana-ciappiug wun
they sang "Walking All Over God's
lleaben." a nocro plantation hymn. As
on eneorrf, they sang, by special request,
Don't Bite the Hand That's eeoing
You" The musical program was
euoshed bv the anthem, "Great is
Jehovah," and -"e" "fana of. "Amer
ica," after which the benediction was
pronounced by Hev. E. B. Loekhart. .
The church was crowded, and it is es
timated that more than two hundred
were present. At the close of the pro
gram, a luncheon, the goodness of which
can but faintly be told, was aerved the
visitors. Strawberries and cream, aad
as some of the party expressed it, real
cream, formed that part of the repast
which appealed most to all present.
The return trip was made in the cool
of the evening, and although the writer
can speak for but one carload, he is'
safe in -saying the home coming was
one of the enjoyable parts of the day.
