At -I mays said in his honor, Ihe old i I l;miii;ir hymns rang: out with mi- ! witmci volume and earnestness. In the j afternoon St. Angela's Literary society ; . eiittriained the rest of the school and a crowd, of visitors by a programme. . ! Hl'l'i'mpriate to the oeca.sion. The whole ; sn.icty was represented, in two very S'wd ehorasos: 'Killarney' and, "I'm L;ivin8 Thee, Ireland." The juniors J ' executed a w.'tnd drill with much ipro virdon and gra.ee of movement. .Vocal o1js were pleasingly rendered by the i Misses L. Kyan and V. Bowden, and interesting: pieces were read 'by the j Misses M. Franklin and G. Burton. The instrumental music including; piano, harj. violin and ruita.r. was contributed . ' ; 'by the Misst L.

It inut be added that the cut programme was highly creditable credit-able to all taking purt in it, and a gre;it ' deal of pleasure and appreciation was evinced by the audience. I An examination- of the classes in French and German was held recently under the presidency of the liev. Father Koeser, S. M.. -who expressed great satisfaction with the result. The avor- ap'S. as a rule, were remarkably high, tiiHwiiiR that the foreign tongues thrive 1'airly in our western clime. A public competition in Christian iotrine between the Catholic pupils of 1 he first and second senior classes took place in the study hall Tuesday afternoon. after-noon. The subject ma.tter was confined con-fined to ihe mass, which with all its wealth n significance, doctrinal and hist.cirical, its variied and inUrestins: rites and ceremonies, proved a proline .1 heme -for -study and research, and iuestions and answers alike indicated lhat a. thorough preparation had been made on ilKith fides. The highest percentage per-centage was reached by the first ' fen ion, who drew for the prize a liand- I some -prayer book, Miss J. McCuo being the lucky one. A second prize was Biveti to the other class, their work jieing considered too go"d to pass un-jewarile'd un-jewarile'd and Miss M. Evans nas the winner. Besides the general victory of the first, seniors one of their numfber. Miss AT. Desmond, so far surpassed the rest, that she richly deserved to be further fur-ther signalized, and was therefore accorded ac-corded the title of champion, to be re- Ilained until Iter record is exceeded by another. The Rev. Father Deneaf presided pre-sided and made the closing remarks, in i vhich he complimented the young la dies of the success of the contest and Irxhoried them to further pursuits of the same kind. A number of sisters- also lent the kindly encouragement of their presence, together with a close mid interesting attention to the eom-p- lition: and lit is to 'he hoped that the other classes who were privileged to ' hear it will be incited to follow this initial performance bv similar efforts. f ' Ave Maria.

I CONCERT WAS A SUCCESS. 1 Splendid Entertainment for the j Kearns St. Ann's Orphanage. I The friends of the Kearns St. Ann's orphanage lilled the Salt Lake theatre f ; last Saturday night and were reward - I ol by a rare treat in the concert giv- ; en by the Junior choir of St. Mary's I t ; ; atliedral. Many of Salt Lake't? bet I ' i musicians joined with the Junior choir I , . lo make the affair a complete musical f . " and financial success. To mention each number is not possible, as the pro- ; gramme was all well rendered. Among I ihe linest numbers may lie mentioned I the exquisite harpcsolo of Mrs. Edward J McGurrin. the beautiful violin solo by i Arthur Pederseu. Professor I'eiler- I ' seii's artist son: the fine work of tjho All Hallows College band, under Pro- ! fessor Pcderscn; the harp accompani- l ' ; incuts by Mi9 Mulvey and Mrs. Mo- i . - Gurrin: the sj.lendid soprano solo by Miss McCue. the talented young singer f ' cif St. Mary's academy; the excellent chorus work of the Junior choir and j the St. Cecelia rhorus: the finely ren- dered solos of the three young girls I Clara. Fafek, Hallie Foster and Kath- f ' leen Fitzpatrick; the ?oul-stii-ring solo by Charles Kent, and. last but not I least, the work of the dear wee babies, f Gladys Reilley, Emily Reilley, Bessie I Johnson, Thehna Cronin, Alice Geary, 1 : and the pretty little girls, Marguerite ' ' - Lacuyer a.nd Marguerite Locke, who . 5 -won .the hearts of all by their song, "Onljr -a Soldier . foy." Marguerite ! Locke is i wosV precocious little child, j Ith a beautiful voice. I . JTlie pnly. tad feature cf the entire , . affair was the late hour -when the programme finished. For this two reasons can be given. The first is that the management erred seriously in announcing an-nouncing the hour as S:30, instead of 8, for the opening number: the other i-eason. and the most important one, is that Miss Gleason unfortunately believes be-lieves in quantity as well as quality, so the programme was too long. She believes in giving the audience the full value for the money, and she makes a serious mistake. Any programme that she conducts for the future will end at 10 o'clock, if ihe haa to procure the services of a notary public to take her deposition. With this exception the affair was highly successful. ECHOES OF THE CONCERT. Stalls for the concert -were taken by Rev. Father Guinan. president of All Hallows college, Horn, and Mrs. Thomas Thom-as Kearns, Mr. and Mrs. W. S. 'McCor-nick. 'McCor-nick. Miss Frances Little, who assisted in the training of the children, deserves all the commendation liossible for her untiring un-tiring work. The rule "no flowers over the footlights" foot-lights" -won the commendation of all. Those in charge of 'the concert ex-fend ex-fend their gratitude to Mr. G. D. Pypei. Mr. George Dorr and all the employes for the courtesy extended at the Theatre. The-atre. One of the prettiest numbers on the programme was that given by the little folks from the Kearns- St. Ann's orphanage. or-phanage. Surely the bright, pretty pupils pu-pils ore a c redit to the untiring zeal of Rt. Rev. Bishop Scanlan, Rev. Father Kiely and the good sisters. A particularly attractive feature was the appearance of the All Hallows college col-lege band, under Professor Fedcrsen. The boys opened the programme with a fine march that inspired all, both performers per-formers and audience. No one 'took more interest in the concert than Rev. Father Guinan. the popular president of All Hallows, who numbers his friends by the legion. . 1 f-; Tha t the concert was a, success' was gratifying to clergy and laity alike. The children, from the tinv tots, some not 3 years old. to the young ladies, made a. beautiful and inspiring picture. In the minds and. hearts of the audience were tender thoughts of the good and worthy bishop, to whonr all the credit reverts. The Junior choir of St. Mary's cathedral was organized by him, and all these years it has been under his snecial protection, he has given every detail of the choral instruction instruc-tion his individual attention; from his private purse has f-omo entertainment for the children and many an hour on Saturday afternoons has he spent with Ihe little singers. He has such a hold on their young hearts that every little child itaking part in the programme last week was inspired to do her best by remembering that the bishoo would be pleased if he were present. To Bisliop Scanlan are the children of the Junior choir indebted for their training and to no one else. In the-rears to come the gratitude they already have for him will fill their hearts for all time. |
