H"v to make Denver's thousands of j-.,ir people happy for Christmas is the 1 .(ii-Miisorbing topic just now. Nearly ! all the I'atholic societies of the city will I ,!)ake up a certain number of baskets for distribution among poor families as veil as for charitable institutions. Chief amongst these is the Sacred n.ait Aid society, whose members are I alnady scouring: the slums for the f n-o'ly. They have all contributed gen- j er.iu.--ly anc are working hard to make their Christmas distribution a success. I In the Denver hospitals special prepa- i ration is being made by the sisters, to f make the day as enjoyable as possiole. t AViih the orphan asylums the contri- 5 luit ions for the children are nearly al- j ways sent in from the various church- 5 es. Aside from this numerous individ- rial donations are received. At St. Vin- ; cent's, particularly, will all these offer- j fags l acceptable, where the Sisttrs l i have undergone such a trying year. It I is lhe wish of the latter to make up in j I J a certain measure the privation which j has in a way falien to the lot of the i little ones during thej year. It is cer- tfiin that the people of Denver will j contribute generously, regardless of ? creed, to make the day one long to be j rmeni beted by thsoe homeless chil- dren. i Preparations are about complete for tV musical programmes to.be carried i ent in the Denver churches.- Great j "care has ben exercisfd-in-training the- choirs of the city which will be a prom- j inent feature of the Christmas services. ! In really all the churches the re j Fperiive pastors will deliver the ser- i nn nof the day. but at Logan avenue I chapel r.isbop Matz will give his an- rual address. i At L'wm avenue chattel the Christ- J mas masses will !e at o'clock sol- j .11111 hiph mass), 6, 7, 8:30. 9:39 and sol- emn pciitiHcal high mass at 11 o'clock. I The cathedral fair has passed into i history, but something more substan- l tial than the mere memory of it re- J mains. !- it the treasury of the new j thunh is richer by nearly $11,000. Of ; this amount the voting contests netted i the largest receipts. The final deci- sinns were made Saturday evening, when Coliseum hall was packed to its 'j utmost capacity.
