CHURCH OPENS; OLD BELL HEARD AGAIN The new Druid Hills Methodist church was opened yesterday morning at 11 o'clock, and the church today was pronounced one of the most beautiful edifices in the city. After many months of silence, old Trinity Methodist church’s bell pealed forth in its familiar tones a call to services yesterday morning. But the call was not to Trinity church. That . old structure is being torn away. The Druid Hills church has the old bell of 1 rinity church, the bell being one of the few things left undisturbed when Sherman passed through Atlanta in 1864. Bishop Warren A. Candler delivered the opening sermon. His text was: “I i am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ. Dr. W. P. Lovejoy, presiding elder of the Atlanta district; Dr. W.
