Notes of the Game.

The last play of the game was a grand
stand catch by Gaeo, when he leaped in
the air and pulled down Gallagher's line
drive.
Stuart's triple in the first inning was
a beauty, and was the hardest hit of the
game.
Weafer was master of ceremonies
throughout the seven innings that he
pitched, having the Montpelier ph yers
eating out of his hand at all times.
The Italians hit hard and often, Every
ball was hit on a line that was registered
hit.
Scott was the hardest hitter on the
Montpelier team.
A few of the Barre rooters seemed to
have Russell's goat. They were sitting
in front of the grandstand when he asked
Umpire Calcsgni to have them removed.
When the umpire did not respond TO his
appeal he then asked the management to
have them put off the field or remove
them to the grandstand. but the officials
could not see il that way.

ushered to the punch bowl presided
over by Miss Thompson who served
a drink tho not nectar but surely
fit for the Gods
The house was tastily decorated
with the seasons flowers; in fact it
was almost a bower so numerous
we're the roses and other "posies."
The tally cards were also 'fowery
in keeping with the decorations.
and the game of six hand euchre
so much INDUCED in by the ladies
who were in attendance seems as
new and as much enjoyed as the
story of romance that never grows
old"
On Tuesday afternoon about
forty ladies were invited to bring
their fancy work, and one at a
short distance would have guessed
it to be Conversational Social"
rather than d work party However
both afternoons passed pleasantly
and quickly. After delightful
salad course with an ice all depart :

to make the lives of her many
friends in the words of the poet

ALUMNI BANQUET
Holy Rosary School Alumni Associ.
alton Hold Annual Reception
and Banquet

NediiZlnB tndt tlle greatest asset
any school can have is the moral
support of loyal alumni, and feeling
that their individual loyalty would
be factor, all the more potent
we're it merged into an organization.
the Alumni of Holy Rosary School
in May 1915 formed an association
for the purpose of linking the past
with the present and thus secure
the future The Association held
it's second Annual Reception and
Banquet in the Woodman Hall
on Tuesday evening June 9Th.
At 8 o'clock happy crowd of
alumni aud their friends betook
themselves to the banquet room
where covers were prepared for 81
persons. Two long rows of tables
were spread, bearing quantities of
cut flowers. beautiful in their
appointments of crystal. The de-
licious menu was prepared by the
ladies of the Holy Rosary Altar
Society who spared neither time
nor labor to make the banquet a
success 1t was faultlessly served
for which great credit is due to the
management The hall was adorn-
ed with festoons in the class colors
and the walls were profuSely draped
with stars and stripes During the
banquet the orchestra excellently
discoursed some joy-eivine music
and Miss Bessie Montgomery
furnished US a treat from the violin.

istically happy manner, after COM
plimenting the graduates on the
completion OF successful school
life. gave them a practical exhOr
tation to extend their influence for
good in the ordinary wavs of life,
In the course of the speech
making, among other things it was
said in substance, knowledge
perfects the mind" One should
therefore aim at acquiring during
life as much of il as lies within his
reach One need not be a bookworm
nor need he devote his evenings
and other free time to study unless
he takes the same pleasure in il
that another does in novel or a
newspaper but he should take an
exalted view of his responsibility
for every faculty he possesses and
as the mind is among the most
important of his faculties he should
not pass up opportunities of easily
storing it with useful accurate
knowledge. This pleasurable occu
patton raises ones tastes above
fOndhess for trashy novels and
eroveiliDg thoughts and keeps him
abreast of our age.
1t gives one too an honored
place among people of refinement
and culture, not perhaps as a pro-
found scholar, but as one who
appreciates the mental gifts with
which he is endowed and makes an
effort to bring them to perfection y"

gram sa, down, bringing delight
