At College hall beginning at 10
o'clock yesterday morning took place
the twenty. second annual commence
ment Of st Cecilia's academy. No de-
scription can give true conception of
the magnificent simplicity that marked
the exercises. There was nothing to
lay claim to elaborate grandeur simply
because the artistic taste OF the Sisters
Of the immaculate Heart was so refine
ly blended as to betray no desire to
dazzle.
The operetta. "The Hunters Daugh.

programme. Floreeu, the hunters

and was no exception to the usual sue

Games and music Of an impromptu

Although the Young Woman's Chris.

days and evenings by many girls and
women, much larger number would
make use of the association il it's apart

excellent opportunity fo- some charit-
ably disposed person or persons to
equip the main floor with electric fans,
1t is probably correct supposition that
many are deferred from using the

the pupils under the direction Of the
