Probably nowhere in the eastern
hemisphere is the Easter season ob—
served with as much slnrpliclty and
reverence as at Bethlehem, Pantry the
Moraviatrs,. whose services for' more
than a century and a half have attract-
ed the Christian world's attention.

ly deal with Biblical history of the
time which is commemorated, inter-
spersed with appropriate hymns. then
follow the impressive Good Friday aft»
'ernoon service anti the love feast on
Saturday afternoon. ending with the
various Easter Sunday services,
The most notable service, however,
is on Easter morning.
Long before daybreak, by the light
of torches. the trombone, choir awaken
the populace by rendering at promi-
nent piaccs throughout the town the
old "carols," to which the earlier-
churches were so attached. aIId in the
stillnes of the night. the beauty and
soletnnity of the music being undisv
trrrbed, the impression made is never
forgotten.
Quickly the lights appear In the
homes. and are long from all directions
the worshippers throng to the old
church. where shortly before sunrise
a short preliminary service is held.
Then the congregation. led by the cler.

to decide whether this case should be
tried now or later. Mr. Stoddard stat-
ed that the decision of the Supreme
Court regarding the admission of the
‘sealed letter" as part of the will
would weaken or strengthen his case
in the Bennett appeal according as it
is admitted or excluded the. “scaled

case be postponed until after the. de-
cision of the Supreme Court. Judge

alleged in the Bennett appeal and if
the "sealed letter" is excluded from

not insist upon this trial. that his side
