FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF POLISH CHURCH Holy Cross Parish and Pastor Complimented on Growth Rev. Fathers Stephen Bartkowski and Victor Piaskowski, pastor and curate respectively of the Holy Cross church on Farmington avenue, were the recipients of high praise and congratulations from the lips of hundreds of their parishioners yes- terday, while in the church during the high mass and the noon-hour mass, Rt. Rev. Vincent Helenowski of Montreal paid special tribute to the two spiritual leaders of the youngest parish in this city for thelr untiring work. Yesterday marked the first anni- versary of the first services to be held in the church and the closing of the first retreat, which was con- ducted by Monsignor Helenowski throughout the entire week and at- tended by thousands. Church Now Too Small A year ago yesterday, thousands of members of the newly organized | Polish parish braved a heavy storm and flocked to the structure on the incline of Farmington avenue to hear and witness the first services in their own church after but four months of existence as a parish. ‘Today, this edifice, which a year ago secmed large enough to minister to the needs of the parishioners, is found to be too small, even though 1t can hold 1,200 people comfortably. Besides marking the first milestone in the opening of the church, yester- duy also marked the first anniver mary of the inauguration of the noon-hour mass, which has become popular since its inception. Monsignor Helenowski, in paying tribute to the two priests and the parishioners, stated that he was as- tonished to see a young parish grow 80 fast in such a short space of time, and was amazed during the entire week of the retreat to witness such enthusiasm among the people. He pleaded for the continuance of the excellent cooperation between the parishioners and their leaders, and | 1aid especial stress upon the work | heing carried on by the two priests despite lack of facilities. He remind- ed his listeners that the anniversary marks only the first step up the lad- der to greater achievement. Tt is not time to stop now. but to carry on the work so well begun for the glory of God and the satisfaction of a progressive community, he said. 8,000 Now Attend Services The youngest parish in this city has set a f pace in its activities among the Polish people during the | short time of its existence opening of the church la | the attendance has shown a con- | tinuous increase, until today there wre approximately §,000 people at- tending the services in the church. | Youth, under the able guidance of the curate, Father Piaskowski, has been strongly organized into differ- ent socicties and sodalities, the largest being the Holy Crosa Dramatic circle numbering about | 300 young men and women. This | organization has been of great as- sistance in the carrying out of much | of the work in the parish. Through its productions of Polish pla: it as instilled in the youth a liking for the drama, music and the fine ar's, and its status as a financial success is well known to the entire parish. Within the year. it has paid for the pews, a task it undertook at | the outsct of the parish’s existence; it has been helpful in assisting in many affairs not in the particular line of duty of dramatic circles, and has made contributions to charity. Under the able guidance of the curite, a school is conducted for children who attend the public school. The classes are conducted in the basement of the church every | day from 4:30 until 6 o'clock. The children are taught the elements of the Polish grammar and history and get a religious training. Although handicapped by inadequate facilities, the classes continue to increase in number and there are at present ap- proximately 700 pupils attending. During last summer special classes were conducted by nuns in the Washington strcet school, and more than 600 children attended the summer sessions.

CHORUS, SOLOISTS, | Wennerbergers Add to Prestige at Seventh Annual Concert | The seventh annual concert of the | Wennerberg chorus at the Strand theater yesterday was nip and tuck between the chorus and two solo- ists. The chorus was billed for ten selections, and with an added num- ber had 11 to its credit. The solo- ists combined were billed for 14 se- lections, and with three added num- bers, had 17 in all. One number, in | which both the chorus and Miss Lil- lian Gustafson, soprano, combined. is counted as one for each. | From the standpoint of quantity. therefore, the soloists provided more {music than the chorus. From the standpoint of quality it was more of an even break. There may be some folks who have a preference for soloists, and these would give Miss Gustafson and the talented young vialinist, Eric Demander, the |preference; those with a more ma- ture sense of values would give the chorus the verdict. Soloists in per- | son and via radio appear to be as numerous as elm trees; but such an organization as the Wennerberg chorus is not heard every day.

Without a capable director such an aggregation would be shipwrecked. Conductor Lindsay is a skipper who knows how o avoid the shoals. He seems to pos- sess an infallible instinct for artistic interpretation. Always having had such leadership explains why the Wennerberg chorus has attained its present standing in Connecticut. Miss Gustafson's song was “Moon Weaver. This was distinguished by a highly complicated accompaniment which avoided common chords as if they were things of evil. This gives an opportunity to appraise the art- istry of that other member of the Lindsay family who was prominent- ly identified with the concert. This refers to Mrs. Ruth Bennett Lind- say, who played the accompani ments for Miss Gustafson.
