cess Of the light opera The delicious

Miss Grace Ginther. who Ia the pos
sessor Of a remarkably sonorous bass
voice. made an admirable Sir Joseph
Porter. Miss Elinor Gels assumed the
role Of Capt Corcoran and lent much
distinction to the part both by voice ami
personality. Miss Alice Kenny sur
PASSED herself in her expression OF tho
woes OF Ralph Rdckstrdto before Cupid

The light. graceful orchestral accom-
panment was especially beautiful and
the choruses were full OF visor and soul.
The staging and costuming were COM
pcte and effective an. contributed to the
success Of the programme.
The Right Rev. Mgr. Mooney in q
graceful and felicitous speech thanked
the students for the very enjoyable hour
they had given their auditors and con-
graduated them on the ability. culture
and refinement they had displayed. lie
was very pleased at this evidence OF
their thoughtfulness with regard to the
unfortunate war sufferers and he had a
suggestion to offer which he hoped they
would endeavor to make practical-they
might not know of the power they pos
eessc,i Of putting an immediate stop to
the present lamentable war. Let the
gallant captain. the skilful tars and the
good ship "Pinafore" set sail for the
scene OF conflict and there will be an end
OF the hostilities, for on the appearance
of the English navy as represented by
the crew of "Pinafore" every individual
German will instantly lay down arms
and become a willing captive, and thus
the students Of Marymount will bring
the world the BLESSINGS OF peace.
Concluding. the m1nsignor wished the
Narymount faculty and students very
merry Christmas and happy New Year.

attorneys he says the atmosphere bill
was si,655. but that he got only s2,s99G2

Rost grew to be a familiar figure
convinced several Western Congress
men OF the justice of DIR. Cooks claims.
and they prepared various bills de-
signed to reopen the Cook-Peary con-
