How still the woods are when the

For Benefit of St. Joseph's Hospital Promises to Be Conspicuous suc- cess.

That the Carnival Of Nations that opened for a weeks business in Town hall Monday evening for the benefit of St. Josephs hospital will be the greatest success of any similar event ever held in the Thread city was night when the hall was literally packed in every available niche and cranny.

 The complete arrangements for the carnival have been made by the La dies auxiliary to St. Joseph's hospital materially assisted by George E. Stiles and others prominently identified with the institution. The carnival was for mally opened by Mayor Daniel P. Dunn, President Guilford Smith and Dr. F. E. Guild, president of the med- ical staff of the association, who all made brief but interesting and en- thusiastic spes.hes
 The ladies' in charge of the same were kept busy all the evening and deserve great credit for the untiring efforts that they have expended per -fecting the innumerab1e details that went to make the opening night an unqualified success
 The programme rendered Monday evening was as follows: The Glory of the Yankee Navy, as sung by Blanche Ring in The Yankee Girl, Agnes Regina O'Neill, soloist. Dou- ble quartette composed of May Keat- ing, Helena Twomey. Julia Shea, Mar garet Harris, Jane Ashton, Elizabeth Wingertsman, Edward LHeureux, John McQuillan, William Hussey. John McShea, Francis Ashton, Harry Tobin.
 The opening night might be aptly styled Americas night. as the stars and stripes pre6ominated in the color scheme and the uniforms of the sol dfers of our commonwealth were in plain view throughout the evening, as members of Company l. assisted in the work of carrying out the evenings programme, as far as the floor ar engagements were concerned
