ANOTHER CONCERT
MONDAY NIGHT
To Beautify Rosario Gene
terry Where De Vargas
Chapel Is Located
MISERERE WILL Be SUNG
Miss Hinojos Will Be Star Soloist
A Varied Program
Is Offered.

| The holy and wholesome thought"
of praying for the dead has been en-
phasized for centuries, and the care
of the graves of the departed dear
! ones of this life is also considered by
| civilized nations a fitting tribute to
those who are no longer able to ask
our remembrance.
Near this city is the Rosario ceme-
terry which is hallowed by memories
sacred to many a resident here and
is the romantic location of the Ro-
sario chapel where Don Diego De Var.
gas carried out his VOW to the Bless
ed Virgin.
This cemetery needs to be beauti-
fed and the ladies of the Cathedral
have arranged to give a concert for
the Rosario Cemetery Fund Monday
night 1t will be at the Elks' theater,
with the assistance of that theater's
manager, Michael Stanton.
Many of the ladies' and their chill
dren have worked very hard to sell
tickets and make the affair a success
and the seat sale now is on at Fisch-
er's drug store.
The concert will be a memorable
one because of the appearance of
Miss Hinojos, a young lady who had
a really wonderful soprano voice, ac-
cording to musicians VINO have heard
her. She comes of a musical family,
her father being the organist at the
Cathedral.
The Miserere.
There will be one very appropriate
selection sung by Miss Hinoios. It
is the Miserere from Verdi's opra, II
Trovatore. Certain it is that this
number, with all its sadness, will ap-
peal to any who have lost dear ones
by the hand of the unrelenting Grim
Reaper. Certain it is that no number
could be more suitable for such an
occasion, considering that the OBJ
Ject of the concert is for the beautifi-
cation of the graves Of the dead.
The Catholic church indeed, does
lay more emphasis on praying for the
souls of the departed than showing
honor by expensive tombstones to the
resting place of their ashes But
there is very pitiful psalm sung by
the church particularly in the month
of November dedicated to the poor
souls in which they say 'Miseremini
| mel, miseremini mel, saltem vos,
| amici mel" CHave pity on me, have
pity on me, at least you, my friends.l
! And this pity is expressable not only
J by prayer, but by an occasional visit
to the grave of the dead friend, and
| keeping the grass green around that
grave as the memory is held sacred
| It is a noticeable fact, deplorabe in
deed, that in too many cemeteries or
the land, including Catholic Gene
/ teries, there are palpable signs of neg
lect of the very injunction of the
! Mother Church to remember all our
! dead friends.
| Those who will aid the concert Mon
| day night, therefore will be doing
good work, and it is hoped some day
that not only will the cemetery be
beautified but that a row of trees will
be planted leading to this spot, sacred,
| historic, romantic.
