Harvest Festival Church Services
Harvest festival ceremonies were conducted in the Baptist. Presbyterian and Methodist churches in Whangarei
on Sunday
Fine collections of fruit, vegetables and all that grows in crops were neatly and originally arranged at the three churches, where appropriate sermons and anthems were rendered. The Rev. R. G. Eycroft conducted both ceremonies in the Baptist Church, while the Revs. W. Elliott and H. J. Tozcr, of the Presbyterian and Methodist Churches respectively, changed pulpits for the harvest thanksgiving services in the morning.
