NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
To Celebrate ‘‘Columbus Day.’’ 
That the parade of Catholic organ- 
izations to be held in Boston, on Oct. 
12, Columbus Day, which is to be 
celebrated as a legal holiday this 
year for the first time in this state, 
has already assumed such propor- 
tions as to warrant the statement 
that it will without question be one 
of the largest ever held in the city. 
That there will be 50,000 men in line 
is already assured strong hope of 
even a much larger number. 
The fact that His Grace, Arch- 
bishop William H. O'Connell, has 
taken an unusual interest in the suc- 
cess of the undertaking and has 
urged upon the different societies 
that it is his wish thatthe — ob- 
servance should be as memorable and 
impressive as possible from a Catho- 
lic point of view, has given a decided 
impetus to the movement. 
The program includes a Pontifical 
mass at the Cathedral of the Holy 
Cross in the morning and the monster 
parade which it is expected will start 
about noon. Participating in this 
big public demonstration will be the 
Knights of Columbus, Ancient Order 
of Hibernians, Massachusetts Catho- 
lic Order of Foresters, the various 
Italian organizations, the French, 
German, Polish and Portuguese 
Catholic societies, together with. the 
temperance societies and a very large 
turnout from the Holy Name society. 
The parade is to be in no sense a 
civic one, as many of the organiza- 
tions taking part are uniformed and 
the various councils of the Knights 
of Columbus are developing special 
features to be introduced, including 
a large number of floats depicting 
various incidents in the life of 
Columbus and epochs in the history 
of America. United States Senators 
Lodge and Crane have also assured 
the committee that there will be sev- 
eral warships here for the celebra- 
tion and that the men from these 
vessels, together with those from 
forts in the harbor will march. It is 
also quite probable that several of 
the militia regiments will participate. 
One of the most unique features of 
the celebration is a beautiful souve- 
nir medal that has been designed to 
commemorate the event. This medal 
is of oxidized metal, one inch in 
diameter and is suspended from a 
red, white and blue ribbon. It is to 
be’ ready for distribution Sept. 1. 
On the obverse of the medal is a 
relief of Columbus planting the cross 
at San Salvador, surrounded by the 
members of his crew while his cara- 
vels are to be seen in-the distance.. 
Ou the reverse side is the seal of 
NOW GLOSING!
