really bright and beautiful spectacle to be
seen there. And when the gaslights illum-
mate the scene tonight many pretty
girls in pretty costumes will occupy q
prominent part of it, for then the grand
bazaar in aid of the Sacred Heart parish
will be open.
All day yesterday several Of the leading
ladies of the Sacred Heart congregation
were busy in Armory Hall directing prep
arations for the festival, and large force
of carpenters and decorators worked hard
to complete the booths and stands. The
result was that at night the hall was en-
circled with continuous row of booths,
all facing on q line and decorated in a
great variety of delicate colors. A beauti-
ful effect in white and pale green stood
beside stall in lavender, pink and yell
low. No two were draped alike, so that
there was good oppor tdnity for the dec
orators to display their taste and versa
tility. The general effect was artistic and
quite picturesque.
The festival will be opened this evening
by Supervisor Joseph Dimond, and with
out formalities or delay the good work
undertaken by the ladies will commence.
