D., a former pastor; deacon Rev. Peter J. Cuny, the present pastor, sub-deacon, Rev. Daniel Manning of St. Patrick's Ghurch, and master of ceremonies, ReV.

The parishionerg of St. Cecilia’s are justly proud of their newly decorated church. The decorators have made it a beautiful and inspiring place of worship. Dene in pure Gothic style, it is a tribute of the faith and reverance of the parish for the Divine Presense ever dwelling on its altars. The altar, of white, surmounted by crosses of gold, stands out from a background of panels with scrolls of gold skillfully executed and set in the walls of the sanctuary, the panels being crowned with a frail, delicate border of artis- tic design. The body of the church in buff, with scroll work and borders clear and perfectly balanced. The ceil- ing of the sanctuary is done in marine blue, with a border of deeper blue en- hanced by a heavy ine of gold, which imparts a distinctive note to the two large panels over the main altar. The new stations harmonize with the gen- eral plan of decoration.
