One hundred and twenty-five Cath
olic girls We're guests last evening OF
the Young Ladies' Sodality of st. Mi
chael's church at the merriest Hal
lowe'en party that has been recorded
III several seasons. The party was
given in the knights of Columbus hall
and tine wierd and mystic stunts that
followed one another in rapid success
sion were The best that could be found
in book. magazine or ancient history.
Six girls were responsible for the
splendid success of the party. the COM

Pouporc. Eileen Neville. Margaret
ltarl. Mary O'Keefe. Margaret Lynch
and Julia O'Gorman. and they received
generous compliments before the ev-
ening came to a close on their rare
n unsurpassed entertaining abilities.
The program was a succession of
scares and ghostly frights that made
the evening a continuous scream. At
the head of the first stairs the guests
were greeted by the most uncanny
looking %inlabitant of the graveyard
that can be imagined and each had to
shake it's cold clamy hand before she
could pass. Then by the faint and
glimmering light of a pumpkin jack
o. lantern they had to ascend the next
stairs backwards. Another ghost
turned them in the right direction at
the head of this stairs and still an
other vas encountered when the dress
ing room was reached. These beings
were impersonated by Misses Sarah
Hart. Camilla Mccoy and Edna Bar
low and their tall angular forms will
not soon be forgotten.
The big dance hall, decorated with
h%angings of black and orange crepe
paper. jack O. lanterns and scores Of
college pennants. was then opened for
the Virginia reel and the fun was on
in earnest. Miss Elizabeth O'Gorman
made an ideal black eyed witch and
foretold the future of many an anxious
cold water for apples. blindfolded
picked the college from which their
life mate will come. INDUCED in a
cracker eating contest Inc screamed
to their hearts content when ice cold
slippery oysters, soaped sponges. pick
les and hot pebbles were passed in the
pitch darkness.
The supper was passed in baskets
and pals but more delicious sand
wiches. doughnuts. coffee and apples
have never been tasted. The hard
times idea was carried out in the cos
tunes and was one Of the evenings
features.
