ST. JOHNS REVIEW St. Johns Best Place of all for the 1925 Fair St. JjhnsBestPlaceof all u r the 1925 Fair VOLUME 17 ST. JOHNS, PORTLAND, OREGON, FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1921. NUMBER 31 Corner Stone Laying Last Sunday, June 5th, the beautiful and impressive ceremo ny of tho laying of the corner Btone of tho new Catholic Church of tho Assumption, for merly, St. Clement's, took place at Smith avenuo and Newton street. Within the last year-or two tho present church has be come entirely too small to ac commodate tho crowds that at tend services on Sunday, and, accordingly, it was decided to erect a now edifice that would soat over six hundred at each Bervico. The whole hearted co operation of the members of the parish rondered this task possi ble with tho result that last Sunday tho first Btone of the su perstructure was laid. The cer emony was scheduled to start at 4 o'clock. Arch Bishop Christie signified his intention of con ducting tho service but was pre vented from so doing by an ill ness which conlined him to his bed. In his stead the Very Reverend Father Burke 0. S.M., Provincial of tho American Pro vince of tho Servite Fathers, officiated. At half past three the mombcrs of tho Holy Numo So ciety and a delegation from the Knights of Columbus headed by the Amorican Flag, the respec tive banners of the Societies and the banner of the new church, with the band of the Knights of Columbus started in procession to tho church. They wore met at the ontranco to tho church by tho ministers who conducted the ceremonies. Fathor Uurko ofll ciuted assisted by Fathor Smith as deacon and Father Sunday as subdeacon. Father Lyons of Vancouver, B. C. acted us mas ter of ceremonies. A lnriro wooden cross was erected at one I end of tho new church and be fore this cross wator was bless ed. Thon followed tho blcBslng of tho sito of tho new altar. Next camo tho bl ssing of tho corner stono itself, the rccitn tion of tho Litany of tho Saints, tho placing of the corner stone in position, and finally the bless ing of tho entire foundation from tho outside. A very im pressive sermon appropriates to the occasion was delivered by Father Thompson. The services lasted about an hour and a half. After the services the attendant crowd which number ed in the neighborhood of three thousand scattered out over the premises where refreshments were served by the ladies and men of tho parish. A banquet was served in the Rectory for tho clergy and several of the laity present. It was a wonder ful day and one that will long be remembered on the Peninsula, larger crowd attending than has eer attended a similar ceremo ny before. Great credit is due the ladies and men of the parish for the ofliciency displayed in attending to the wants of nil present, and for having made an enjoyable day even moro en joynble. Rcpor.ted.

Tho program was an elaborate one, and carried out in most ad mirable style. A striking and unusual feature was the playing of three pianos at the same time. Lack of space forbids in dividual mention of each partic ipant, but each ono, from tho tiniest tot to the largest pupil, carried out their parts in a most commendable and creditable manner. The manner in which each pupil executed his or her part was it fine demonstration of the remarkable ability and painstaking care of the instruc tor, and a revelation to the au dience. The program will be published next week. One of tho most attractive places to open in Seaside this season is the Coney Island Cafo which was opened Saturday eve ning.
