of Iucendlnrv Origin
From the altar ot the old church, on
River street, where today stands the
beautiful edifice known ns St. Mary's
German Catholic church, an announce
ment wns "made that a meeting of tho
young men of the parish would occur
on that afternoon to organize a glee
and dramatic club. That was seven
yeurj, ago yesterday. The call was an
swered by ono hundred young men,
and a permanent organization was ef
fected. Since then the society has pro
gressed wonderfully, nnd now the par
ishioners ot St. Mary's point with
pride to that grand body of young
men, the St. Mary's Gleo and Dra
matic association. Tho alms and ob
jects of the association are to encour
age the study of music, and tho prac
tice of athletics, and to further a warm
mutual feeling among Its members.
The anniversary of the association
was elaborately celebrated last eve
ning at St. Mary's hall, on Hickory
street. It was a banner night In the
career of the popular society. Exten
sive preparations for the event have
been under way for weeks. Tho lady
friends of the young men took In hand
the decorations of tho hall, add It Is
needless to etnto that they did their
share of tho work admirably. Potted
plants, ferns, American tlags and
handsome parlor lamps added to tho
scene of beauty that met the largo
number of guests as they walked to
tho auditorium, and took seats about
tho tables. The club's caterer served
a eubstantlal lunch. "Cigars" ended
the menu, nnd Peter J. Rosar, Jr.,
president of the association, introduced
Rev. Peter Christ, pastor of St. Mary's
church as toastmaster of the evening.
Father Christ responded, and In an
earnest manner delivered an eloquent
toast on "Character nnd Principle."
The reverend speaker gave an Inter
esting lesson of the Inestimable value
of these qualities and he laid particu
lar stress upon how essential they are
to carry a man through life, honorably
and successfully.
Father Christ's thoughtful discourse
was listened to with great Interest, and
his remarks were loudly applauded. At
the conclusion of his speech he took his
position ns toastmaster, and Introduced
Rev. Father Brlehl, of PIttston, who
congratulated tho young men upon the
success they have attained. He was
witty and happily referred to a recent
trip that the bovs made to his city.
Father Stopper was called upon, and
paid the club a merited compliment,
und urged them to continue fhelr good
work. The reverend toastmaster stated
that after so much speechmaklng a
selection would bo refreshing, and the
double quartette rendered in an ex
cellent manner a popular medley. F.
Helder gave nn Interesting review of
the progress made during the year Just
ended. Frank Stelnbach and John
Elden, when called upon, gave an ex
hibition ot club swinging that was
thoroughly enjoyed. Frank P. Klos
recited, nnd the members of the club
brought to a close the llrst part of the
programme by the rendition of a Ger
man selection.
The tables were then removed and
dancing was Indulged In for several
hours.
