CHARLES CHURCH, CHICAGO | St. Charles' choir has been, during the twenty-five years of % its existence, one of the most active and progressive organizations * in the parish. Starting under the direction of Miss Marv Doran % in 1885 with a small membership, it undertook some very pretentious ^ work, and attracted voices of unusual sweetness to its ranks. f After two years of most satisfactory service, the choir came |l under the leadership of Mr. P. Torney, whose daughter Edna, *f then a young pupil of the parochial school, presided at the organ. % In a few years Miss Torney resigned to accept the organ at Our f Lad}- of Sorrows Church. Mr. Fitzgerald and Mr. ]\Ioore succes- $ sively took charge of the choir, which consisted of twentv singers — f just enough to occupy the small platform which served for so many *> years as the choir-loft in the building which is now the parochial |^ school. S In 1894 the choir direction was given by Rev. Fr. Gill to % !Miss Alav Smith, now Mrs. AVm. F. R^•an. who has continued ♦*♦ - •►♦♦ to preside as organist and choir director ever since. As soon as % the new church was proposed, a large chorus of seventy-five voices ♦> was organized to prepare for the dedication, and since that time, % although old members have resigned after years of service, and |* pleasure, new recruits have gladlv taken their nlaces. so that the ♦ work of the choir has been of the highest excellence at all times, ^ and an orchestra was needed on all important feasts to support the ^ voices. 1^ At last a large organ was a necessity, and a Lyon & Healy *> two-manual was installed at a Sacred Concert given February 13, $ 1901. Very Rev. John Cavanagh delivered the address. j\Ir. Ed- *> ward B. Sche\e gave an organ recital, and the program presented $ by the choir was very elaborate.

On December 5, 1908, the beautiful marble altars were blessed by His Grace. Rt. Rew P. J. Aluldoon. and the choir rendered a xevy effective musical program at the Pontifical Mass.
