The coronation of the Blessed
Virgin, the annual event of the
Young Ladies' Sodality of st. Mary's
church, which took place last night
with Miss Agnes Mcguire as the
crowner, surpassed many of former
years in its beauty and spectacle.
The church enhanced with the floral
decorations partly ~concealing the
shrine, vas filled even to standing
space with those assembled to wit
ness the pretty service in which 200
members of the sodality took part.
Miss Agnes Mcguire as the
crowner was attired in a gown of
white satin with a long train and
an over-drape of net while the veil,
which completed her winsome cos
tune, was of tulle. Preceding her
were the attendants and the flower
girls, the attendants coming first,
each wearing a gown of white and
carrying a huge bouquet of flowers.
The Misses Ruth Gibbons, Agnes
Donovan, Agnes Major, Anna Nc
Cormick and Catherine O'Brien
were the attendants whom Helen
Rhodes and Jean Delaney, as flower
girls carrying the silver tray on
which was the crown of lilies of the

Elizabeth Blume, poured forth a
suitable march as the procession
Slowly proceeded down the aisle

House Peters is one of the few

successfully portray the role of Blair

the pen of May Ellington and which
was adopted to the screen by Brad

The ordinary screen hero accustom-

WAYS TO SERVE VEGETABLES
Simple Methods Are Better for Chill
dren Than Complicated Ones
Like ScaIlopino.

Vegetables may be served either
quite simply seasoned with salt or
with a little milk. cream, or butter, to
improve or vary the flavor. Oil may
be used to dress green's instead Of but
ter. These simple methods are bet
ter for children than complicated ones
like frying or scalloping. For the
smallest children, chop finely such
vegetables as green's, and If the
tougher portions of other vegetables,
such as the skins of green peas, are
found to disagree with child, re-
move them by putting the cooked
vegetable through sieve. Do not
give small children such vegetables as
raw radishes or cucumbers, which
might easily be swallowed in large
pieces and not digest well.
