MUSIC
The influence of music on the
emotions is well known. In
times of trial it can do more
to soothe the feelings than
any words of consolation. For
thi sreason we give muisic a
prominent place in the services
we conduct. We make all ar-
rangements for this feature of
the service, subjject, of course,
to the wishes of the family.
