Southold Churches Junior Choirs Have Prominent Roles Imprwislve services and large con- gregations were reported in all of the Southold Churches on Easter Sunday. The inspiring music and services were In keeping with the true spirit of the Resurrection. Those who attended and those who took part were well repaid. St. Patrick's Church was filled to capacity at the High Ma.'ss at 8 o'clock which was celebrated by Father Ray- mond Costello, the pastor. It was the largest congregation ever to attend the Mass In Southold on Ea.ster. Mr. J. Leo Thompson, organist, directed the choir. The Easter Sflrvlcc at the First Uni- versallst Church was well attended. The choir, under the direction of Mr. Russell DavLson, presented a fine musi- cal program. The church was deco- rated most attractively with lilies, car- nations. stock, daffodils, etc., arranged, as for many years post, by Mr. Frank Smith. Tliey added beauty and uplift to the service. Miss Dorothy Howell was at the organ and enriched the .lervlce with the joyous tone of pre- lude and postludo. Dr. Ayres\ ser- mon dealt with \Unlversallsm and Im- mortality,\ in which he affirmed that finally all men would be saved and that God's love would be vindicated. The entire service was Inspiring. A large congregation attended the Easter morning service in the Metho- dist Episcopal Church. The beautiful Easter lilies, the deep tones of the or- gan and the triumphant joyoasness of the Easter anthems brought anew a happy spiritual awakening to those who listened. The Junior choir proved again that they are, Indeed, a real addition to the regular church choir. With their hap- py faces and their clear young voices Southold Easter Dawn Service Draws More Than Central Park As the old tower clock in Southold struck five on Easter morning, there was unusual activity for that time of day. Cars were hurrying up and down Main Street. In front of the various churches there were groups of cars gathered with young people hurrying to board them. In the Presbyterian Church the lights were on in full, with an anxious sexton hurrying about get- ting up heat and frequently looking out at the weather to see If the threat- ening skies would allow an outdoor service or whether they would have to be cared for by him, as provided in case of rain. Now cars soon came rooming through the village from west and east with heavily clad passen- gers looking out drearily, as If aroused much before their usual time. Here and there persons were to be seen with packages of rolls or the \makings' of the morning coffee, hastening to where folks were to gather for a break- fast soon to follow. It was Easter Morn and a sun-rise service had been called for the moment of dawn. Now at Founders' Landing, sevei-al of the clergy stand about, looking a bit anxious, for it is cold, and nearly 5:15, and .scarcely anyone about. Rev. Ellis of Greenport suggested this. He's very anxious now. Rev. Butterer has brought a man of importance in his church to speak, and he wonders too If there will be more than a handful. But there are folks gathering. And soon more, and more. A hundred or more are now here and the first hymn Is to be sung \Christ the Lord is Risen Today.\ As they sing, cars are driving up In all directions and groups hurry across the lawn to the head of the dock where the group faces the east. Two hundred now, and the scripture is being read by Reverend Shaw, the story of the first Easter mom. All are silent and attentive, the sky begins to lighten, others are hurrying toward the group Charles W. Elmer, Noted Southold Town they seemed fairly to live the words ^ n r v n S SLS they sang, bringing a vibrant beauty P'\®®®' to the lovely anthems. Earl Hagerman g a v e an excellent solo rendition of \Open the Gates of the Temple.\ Rev Mr. Hunter preached a forceful and iii.splrational sermon, taking as his topic \Now Is Christ risen from the dead.\ in which he gave a vWld expla- nation of the mkaculous change of attitude in the diaclpies from cringing fear and despondency on the eve of the crucifixion to a peak of marvelous strength and coiira^ apd <tet¥nnlnji-> tlon to carryon their Master 's work, brought about with the passing of time by their growing realization of Christ's presence and the true meaning of his spiritual kingdom. At the Presbyterian Church on Sun Hunter gives an Easter prayer, and all join In. the familiar words of the Lord's Pra^f. As they sing the Dox- ology another hundred have come. Ex- cept for a very few late arrivals the gathering Is complete, and Dr. Bur- gess is introduced. Rev. Ellis B. Bur- gess, D.D., L.L.D., President of the United Lutheran Synod of New York. All reverently listen In spite of the raw Astronomer to Address Custer Public Meeting All who have had the opportunity to hear Mr. Charles W. Elmer in his former talks on astronomy will want to attend the open meeting of Custer Institute which Is scheduled for this Saturday evening, April 15th. At this meeting, Mr. Elmer will speak on the \Lamps of the Day and the Night,\ and, as is the rule for all of these papers, the subject wUl be treated in such fashion as to be entirely under- standable to all. Mr. Elmer brings to his subject an absorbing Interest which has Inspired him to devots all of his time and ef- fort to the science. He first became interested In A.stronomy y e a r s ago when, as a young man, he paid ten cents to a sidewalk astronomer for the privilege of looking through a tel- e.scope at the moon. Curiously enough, the tele.scope was one of the fine Fltz instruments, the maker of which was undoubtedly the foremost telescope ex- pert of his day. As time v.-ent on, Mr. Elmer's in- terest in astronomy grew from the point where it ceased to be a mere hobby and became his chief Interest. For years he has been in charge of the astronomical section of the Brook- lyn Institute of Arts and Sciences; and he Is known all over the country in astronomical circles. He has served for several years as president of the Amateur Association of Variable Star ^ Observers, a group which is contrlbut- j Ing tremendously to the world fund of data on this engrossing subject. Those who have heard Mr. Elmer talk on any aspect of his subject will recall that he has a world of infor- mation at his finger tips, and that he has the happy faculty of making the subject live for his hearers. This will be one of the outstanding attractions on the Institute's programs, and there Is, naturally, a lively demand for tick- ets. Those who wish to attend should at once make reservations, either from M!r. A. E. Dart or Mr. Charles Van Duzer, as only those who have pro- cured tickets in advance will be ad- mitted. Mr. Elmer will give a portion of his address over to a conslderatlm of our own sun, our solar system, our own galaxy, and then. In imagination, take his. hearers into the vast reaches Choral Society to Have Prominent Part In Suffolk Day at The World's Fair Custer Calls Public Meeting For Southold's 300th Anniversary Assemblyman Lupton'. Bill Semi-Finals and Fioalsof Amendmg Southold Park District Laws Signed By Governor Taking the Initiative in this all-im- portant community undertaking, Custer Invitation Extended by Suffolk Association Accordin g to present plans, the Southold Town Choral Society will play an important role in the program for Suffolk County Day at the World's Fair on June 14th. An Invitation was ex- tended to this organlzaflon by the Suf- folk County Association at a meeting of the latter held on Saturday at the Hotel Henry Perkins, Rlverhead. The Rev. E. Hoyt Palmer, pastor of the Southold Presbyterian Church, repre- sented the Choral Society at the meet- ing. William H. Anderson, an official from the office of the Director of Special Events for the World's Fair, addressed the meeting and Informed the members that the fair officials would cooperate to the fullest extent in staging the Suf- folk County Day Celebratloi^ Besides the Choral Concert, it is psnned to hold a par.i(le and numerous other events which will be primarily of a Suf- f o 1 k County nature. Mr. Anderson urged that civic, fraternal and social organizations together with the schools, veterans and firemen, take part In the parade. In addition to the parade there will be contests and addresses by prominen t speakers on the Fair grounds. The affair will come to climax in the evening with a dinner for residents of Suffolk County.

One of the features of tlie Interesting meeting was a talk by Miss Jean Hal- lock of Rlverhead, who has charge of the radio program \Here's Long Island\ which Is broadcast weekly over Station wncc , Bridgeport.

Suffolk County Scout Executive Promoted Max L. Clark, who has been Field Scout Executive for Suffolk County for the past two years and a half, will leave on Sunday. April 16th, for Sagi- naw, Michigan, where he is to have charge of three counties. This pro- motion came to Mr. Clark very recently out of a clear sky and necessitated his being relieved immediately from Suf- folk County in order to report there on the 17th. The Board of Directors have accepted his resignation with re- gret and resolutions have been adopted wishing Mr. and Mrs. Clark \the best wishes of the Scouters of Suffolk Coun- ty for success and happiness In their new work in Michigan.\ Because of the emergency, the Board of Directors found it impossible and inadvisable to try to work in a stranger on such short notice, and feel them- selves fortunate In beli^ able to se- cure temporarily and on a pait time basis the services of one of Its own Directors, Mr. Joseph V. Kelly of Rlv- erhead who, some years ago, served as Field Executive for the Eastern End of the Island.

We do not know what the plans at the first meeting will be but If there Is to be an honorary chairman, we suggest the name of the Honorable Jo- seph N.
