The 21st of October will not soon be for
gotten by those who were fortunate enough
to have been in Helena at she time. Fri
day was an ideal day. bright and sunshin
ing and just Crisp enough to make one
Feel the electric thrill, the touch
OF life that seems almost too much.
Those who began the day by going to the
cathedral and hearing the impressive serv-
ice and exquisite music of Mr.. Garland's
mass in ID minor must have felt more than
rewarded. Probably many appreciated
more than ever on that day, when the first
splendid chords of the Gloria were struck,
that We have in our midst a musical mind
that may some day rank with the noted
composers Of the age. Following the morn
ing sc, vice the Catholic public schools
gave some very Interesting exercises. The
auditorium presented a very attractive APP
pearance in the afternoon when l, 500 chit
dren, represe ntiEg all the public schools OF
Helena. marched into the building, es-
corted by the Sons OF Veterans. After Il
number of patriotic cho uses aud fine adj
dresses the children filed out and wit
nessed the raising of the flag on the high
school building. A more imposing and pa
triotic scene has never been witnessed il
Helena.
In the evening several very enjoyable
balls and private parties were given. The
Ladies' Aid society of the Sons of Veterans
gave a very novel entertainment in the
form of a souvenir spoon ball at the Elec.
trio hall. The dancing hall was gaily
decked out in bunting and flags. and pre-
scented a very festive appearance On en-
tering the hall each lady was presented with
Il ticket bearing a number. After all the
guests had assembled the gentlemen were
given large gilded wooden spoons with
small mustard spoons attached to them.
The large spoons were numbered with
plumbers corresponding to those on the la
dies tickets, and it became the duty oil
each gentleman present to occupy himself
in finding his partner for the evening. The
party was Il very large one. The music
furnished by Majors orchestra, was excel
lent. and altogether the ladies who so am.
bitiously labored to make the event a sue
cess, may Pride themselves on the result.
A very good programme has been pre-
pared for the musicale to be given mex,

fist church. Th services of the best local
