The brief article above appeared in the Standard newspaper on 16 November 1918 and unfortunately there does not appear to be any reports in subsequent editions of the Standard to record the order of service for any of the local churches.  There is an article in that same edition of the Standard that gives a hint of what was planned for the Methodist Church in Graham Street.
