THURSDAY, JUNE 4. Society Temple Aid Bridge Party This Evening The bridge party that will be given ■tliis evening by the ladies of the Temple Aid Society, at the residence of Mrs, Abram Levy on the Hill, will be one of tiie most delightful affairs of the sea son. Arrangetnents have been made for any number of tables which will be placed in the parlors and on the cool in viting piazzas. At each table there will be a most attractive prize for the high est score and at the conclusion of the St. Mary's Commencement Exercises and Banquet A stranger present at the "om mencement exercises at St. Mary's Academy yesterday afternoon \vas asked what struck him most potent ly, unhesitatingly replied, “The de lightful culture and refinement ol the girls, their exquisite poise, and the beautiful seriousness with which they are passing through the gates of wo manhood.” By five-thirty every seat in the as sembly hall was taken and the pic ture presented was one of radiant loveliness. The stage was adorned with beautiful flowers, roses of all kinds, Killarney, American Beauty, and Radiance, and yet none were daintier or lovelier than were the group of girls who composed the grad uating class and the undergraduates. It was a matter of very genuine dis appointment that owing to illness Bishop Keiley could not be present, as his presence always means much to both girls and the guests. The exercises opened with the sa lutatory, gracefullly delivered by Miss Jessie Stulb. a welcome couched in the purest of English and delivered with the greatest ease and in the most dulcet of tones. Miss Stulb was followed by a vocal number, Gounod'e “Unfold Ye Por tals,” sung as is rarely heard from amateurs, their sweet young voices blending most harmoniously into a perfect melody of song. Miss Georgia Morris' essay, “Life's Call,” showed that much thought has been spent on its preparation and be spoke a sweet seriousness of the girl who is standing on the threshold ot womanhood, eager to pass over and jet pauses to listen to words of sage advice from those who have already lived and passed over and had their illusions disi elled. Miss Morris followed her essay with a vocal soio. “Salve Regina,” and sang as she al ways does with much sweetness, and expression, evidencing in every note rad tone how caretully had the beau tiful! voice been trained. Miss Ruth Thompson, the first honor girl, delivered the valedictory, a beautiful, gem of thought in whicu she compared the graduating class of six to six rosebuds growing on one parent bush and paid graceful tribute to the loyal, devoted teachers who had so unselfishly and with no dis tinction of creed done so much for the future in equipping the girls for the life into which they were to each go her way all made better for the ten years training they had had at St. Maryss. The program for the afternoon was finished with the class singing Char minade's “Angelus,” after which the awards were read by Mr. Victor J. Dorr and gold crosses, diplomas and laurel wreathes presented by Father McMahon. At all times is Father Mc- Mahon a delightful speaker, on yes terday he excelled himself, each word uttered coming from his heart and falling like dew on the hearts of his hearers. Father McMahon paid trib ute to the girls, the teachers, the 6chool, and the dignity and beauty with which the lives of St. Mary's girls were invested. He was listen ed to with the closest attention and greeted with the most flattering ap plause. WOMAN COULD NOT SIT UP Now Does Her Own Work. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta ble Compound Helped Her.
