GOOD FRIDAY MUSIC AT ST. PAUL'S. Maunder’s important work ‘ Olivet to Calvary’ will be rendered by the cathedral clroir at 8 p.m., Mr E. Heywood. F.R.CTO., presiding at the organ. This work recalls the scenes which mark the last few days of the Saviour's life, on earth, and some of the reflections suggested thereby. The rejoicing of the multitude with hosannas and palms, the view of Jerusalem from the steep of Olivet, the lament over the beautiful city, the scene *n the temple, and the lonely walk back over the mount at night form the chief features of the first part. Part 11. opens with the Supper of the Passover, at which Jesus washes His disciples’ feet, and gives to His friends the new commandment of love for one another as the sign of true discipleship. From this the scene passes to the infinite pathos of the Garden of Gethsemane, the sudden appearance of the hostile crowd, Jesus forsaken by His disciples, His utter loneliness among ruthless foes, the tumult before Pilate in the Judgment Hall, the Passage of the Cross, the Tragedy and .Triumph of Calvary.
