 filled with 8 noisy but happy crowd
 In some cases the parents accompanied
 the children The hall was prettily dec
 orated for the afternoon with stream
 CTS, and the candy booth, which is on
 the south side of the hall, was the center of attraction for all, and from the time the doors opened until the close of the afternoon a swarm of chil dren surrounded 1t. This booth was T charge of several of the sisters of the convent, and they were kept busy try ing to supply the demand for candy John Murphy, who was in charge o1 the lemonade booth, had an equally busy time supplying the children witt lemonade, for which there was an in- | cessant demand.
 In all. the day was very successful from start to finish, which was very pleasing to the clergy. Father Massi cot was in charge of the hall for the afternoon. Regretting that they mus wait another year for children's day t( come round again, the children tool their leave late in the afternoon.
