Corpus Christi Church.

People passing the Catholic church
last Sunday little after noon were
doubtless surprised to see the large
crowd leaving the church after the
High Mass. Although Sunday was
one OF the hottest days OF the summer
yet an unusually large number at
tended. 1t was evident before ser
vices started that the seating capacity
Of the church would be entirely mad
equate, and fully twenty-five men had
to stand during the services. The
congregation has grown so large dur
ing the past fifteen months that addi-
tional chairs We're bought for the
church and still there is not sufficient
room. The members Of the parish
are working hard to obtain resident
priest, and as soon as the Right Rev.
Bishop Lehman returns from Europe
the matter will be taken up with him.
Sunday was the feast of st. Anne,
the Mother of the Blessed Virgin
Mary. The Catholic Cathedral in
Great Falls is named after this saint
and the feast was celebrated through
out the diocese.
Two masses were celebrated here
last Sunday at 800 and 1870; the last
was High Mass, and the choir under
the able leadership of Mrs. Bruen
rendered very appropriate music. On
the fourth Sunday of August the
music will be of high order and we'll
known local musician will render q
violin obligato.
The interior of the church has been
improved lately and the ladies of the
parish will give a social on Saturday,
Aug. 8, to raise funds for more inn
provemeut.
The pastor is very anxious to meet
all the newcomers of his faith. 1t is
impossible to visit the various MEM
bers' and each new arrival should
come forward.
On Sunday, Aug. % will be general
Communion Day for the entire parish
and the pastor is anxious that every
one who can possibly do SO will re-
ceive the Sacramento that day.
A very solemn ceremony took place
here Sunday after the High Mass
when the Sacrament of Baptism was
administered to five children.
The following were baptized:
1ynrnn+b CON nf L'r-
nest Schumacher. Godparents, Mr..
