Win Send Representatives Of the Holy
Name Society 10 Washington Next
Sunday Enthusiastic Meet

Last evening an enthusiastic meet
ing of the Holy Name Society took
PLACE at St Mary's Hall. Quite
number of men were present. and
the zeal which those interested dis
played indicated that st. Mary's par
ish will be largely represented in the
demonstration in Washington Sunday
next.
While il is held under the auspices
of the Holy Name Society a number
of those not affiliated with the society
will also participate, and all the men
of St. Mary's parish are invited to
lend their presence on this occasion.
The last celebration of this char
acter took place two years ago AMI
was large affair, but il is the ambi-
ton of those in charge this year to
exceed by far any held heretofore.
According TO tentative arrangements
the society will leave Annapolis on
the IL. 20 car, and the demonstration
is expected to begin at o'clock.
Special rates on the w. b. & A.
have been obtained and the tickets
are being disposed of by Messrs. A.
C. Davis and w. H. Wilson the vice
president and secretary of the society
and tickets at special rates can only
be obtained from them.
More than 20, 600 men pledged in
their association to protect the Holy
Name against profanity and bias
phemy will march in a remarkable
demonstration at Washington on Sun
day october 20 under the auspices of
| the Washington section. The Bait
more and Western Maryland section
will have conspicuous places in line
Baltimore having the right of line by
virtue of the fact that the president
of the society in the archdiocese of
Baltimore is Jerome H. Joyce of that
city.
1t will be the second demonstration
Of the kind by the Holy Name So
ciety of this archdiocese. A few days
| ago more than 80, 600 men marched in
Philadelphia. Throughout the coun-
try annual demonstrations are 10 be
made and the society is rapidly grow
ing numerically and in influence into
one of the first forces of the Catholic
| Church of America. At his jubilee
Cardinal Gibbons especially COM
mended the work of the Holy Name
/ Society the national convention of
which was held in Baltimore and
| urged that it be made subject of
thought and work at the various re-
| treats.
There are forty-eight parishes in
the archdiocese of Baltimore, affiliat-
ed with the society, and every one of
them will have not only a large
marching representation, but bands
to play in line. Perhaps the largest
attendance will be that of st. John s
Church, in Baltimore, headed by the
Fifth Regiment Band, with 1000
-marchers. ST. Peters, with the Park
Band, will send 500, St. Joseph's,
with the Fourth Regiment Band, will
have 400, and so on down the line.
Each section will be in charge of its
president and every parish will
have its marshal and local officials.
Grand Marshal Haltigan of Wash
ington, will head the parade from the
Capitol grounds, by way of B street
to Pennsylvania avenue, to Fifteenth
street and to the Washington Monu-
ment grounds, where a stand will be
erected for speakers. Cardinal Glib
bons and eminent church and laymen
will be on a reviewing stand at the
| New Willard Hotel, to view the pa
rade as it passes that point with thir-
tv or more hands intersnereed
