The pastor of the Village church, 
Rev. Dr. Walter S. Eaton, will oc-

service, which begins at 10.45. In the 
evening at 7.30, Harold Caverly, 
Esq., a member of the Boston Bar 
will give an illustrated lecture on 
“The Trial of Jesus from a Legal. 
Standpoint.’’ The slides which ae- 
company the lecture are taken from 
masterpieces of art, both ancient and 
modern, and from actual photographs 
of the Passion Play at Oberammer- 
gau. Most of them were made ex- 
clusively for this. lecture and many 
of them were especially imported 
from Paris. The lecture is in the 
form of a jury address by a lawyer 
speaking to win verdict. It is a 
dignified, reverent and_ standing 
argument that the execution of 
Jesus without the authority and 
formality of a legal trial was prac- 
tically a lynching and its purpose is 
to make Jesus seem more real and 
lessoa. Mere mirage.
