One of the prettiest and most sociable events of the season was the May reception
given by the members of the Ladies Auxiliary, St. Aloysius society, in the
Sarsfleld Opera house on Friday evening. The pretty auditorium was gayly
bedecked with flowers and plants and the costumes of the ladles blended in
harmony with the delicate colorings of the surroundings. The members of the
organization left nothing undone to make the affair a grand success. John
Buckley acted as chairman and made a few opening remarks, after which the
following programme was rendered: Vocal solo Anthony Ryder; solo, Miss Lizzie
Hines; recitation, Miss Mame Murphy, Archbald; duet, Misses Loughney and Fitzhenry,
Minooka; recitation, William Jennings. Supper was immediately served in the
club rooms, during which time the Columbian orchestra led the merry dancers on
the upper floor.
