FRIENDLY RIVALRY At THE BOOTHS

Inc DaZdT IOT lH6 DGuClll Vi W. SNSAAfo
church was opened last Monday night,
and from all indications promises to be
decided success. Owing to the inclem-
ency of the weather the attendance was
kept down for the first two nights, but
as the bazaar will continue for two weeks
those in charge say they will more than
oct even with the elements for their in
reference. Every one connected with
the affair is working hard to make it
success, as this will be the last bazaar OF
the century, and the proceeds will be
used in renovating the interior OF the
church.
A word in regard to the societies taking
part would not be out of place. AS you
enter the hall on your left you find the
ST. Vincent de Paul booth, with lots OF
pretty things to catch the eye. This
booth is in charge of Mr.. Andriott and
Mike Collins, assisted by several other
members of the society, and If indica-
tons count for anything they will make
some of the younger people hustle to
keep pace with them.
Next we have the Catholic knights
and Ladies of America table, all decorated
in green and yellow, and in charge OF
Mrs. Mcnahan and Mr.. M. Hoban, as
sisted by Mrs. Galway and others, who
have always made their table a success,
and it goes without saying that they will
not be left this time with such hard and
earnest worker as Mrs. Monahan in
charge.
Next you will find st. Joseph's Aid
Society, and if you think the little girls
have been outdone by the older members
of the congregation. just pause as you
pass their table and take look at the
host of pretty things they have collected
and YOU will certainly admire the little
ones for the interest they have shown.
This table is in charge of Miss Henley,
assisted by Miss Fisher and lots of other
young girls of the Aid Society.
In the rear of the hall you will find the
Altar Society, who will serve you refresh:
ments at reasonable prices, and if you dc
not get your moneys worth 1t is because
you are hard to please. Mrs. Joe Heffer-
nan, Mrs. Flood, Mrs. Morrissey and
several other ladies have charge of this
table and they certainly know how to
entertain.
After leaving the Altar Society, where
you have been SO royalty treated, you
cross over to the other side of the hal
and near the door you will notice
gathering of pretty ladies who belong tc
the Young Ladies' Sodality, who will
make it interesting enough for you
Their booth is certainly evidence enough
of the work they have done and what
they will do. This table is III charge o.
Miss Nora McDonough, assisted by hos
of pretty girls.
Last but not least we come to the
young mems booth, composed OF mem
bers of Mackin Council, in charge o.
James Duffy, Charles S. Raidy, William
Kerberg and V. B. Smith, assisted by
Misses Ida Raidy, Lilly Schneider, Tilli'
Curran, Lizzie and Mamie Morgan, Evi
Raidy. Rose Huber, Rose Reagan, Anna
Boyle, Mesdames Eschmann, Weber
Timothy Crowley, Kibby, Messrs. Barney
Flynn, Thomas Burkholder, Barney Daw
son, John McQuese, Frank Morgan ant
several others. The ladies have charge
of the booth and have lots of nice articles
to show you and will try to induce you t.
invest if you give them call. The boy
have charge of the wheel, where you car
win anything from pin to house ant
lot, to hear them tell it.
The contest between Master Grube
and little Miss Butler promises to be very
interesting. The victor has choice be
tween a gold watch and bicycle. Maste
Gruber is the son of Bes. Gruber, thu
well-known Portland avenue butcher
while Miss Butler is the daughter o
George Butler, the popular grocerymai
at Twenty first and Portland avenue
With two such we'll known people as thu
above interested the contest promises t
be very interesting before the finish.
The bazaar is being held in the schoo
hall beneath the church. The Yves
Main-street cars will carry you within
half block of the door.
