The Bicentennial Celebration at Ste. Genetlictle By INEZ LAIL

S TE. GENEVIEVE, MO.. Missouri's oldest settlement, a community of 2,663 people, started its bicen-

tennial celebration on August 19th. Claiming the distinction of having

the first organized Catholic parish west of the'Mississippi River, and the church itself, imposing for s o small a town, Ste, Genevieve started the bicentennial celebration with a pontifical high mass a t 10 a. m., Mon- day. Each night one episode in the historical pageant, which was written and directed by Rev. J. B. Platisha, of Perryville, Mo., and which had a cast of one thousand people, was presented. In additlon t o this, each day was t h e cause of some special celebration. Tuesday was St. Louis Day, Wednesday was Missouri Day, ahd s o on down t h e line.

Ste. Genevieve's inhabitants a re proud of the fact that they a r e descendants of t h e first aettlers i n Missouri and here will be found many historical buildings, which, i f they could talk, would tell interesting stor- ies of the llves and loves of Missouri's pioneers. The name Valle in Ste. Genevieve is almost a tradition, and J d e s F. Valle, whose ancestor, Fran- cois Valle, was the flrst civil and mllitary commandant of Ste. Gene- vieve, was a n actlse participant in the bicentennial. Another old and

, honored family of this community is the Rozler family and Miss Mary Elizabeth Rozier, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Francis J. Rozier, was crowned queen of t h e celebration. Miss Rozier is the great-great-granddaughter of Ferdinand Rozier. who with Audubon, the great naturalist, settled in Ste. Genevieve in 1810. There a r e many, many other families, such as the Ga- hanals, Bogeys, Papins and Petreqnins, whoye ancestors were among the flrst to settle there, and who have done much t o make this tkttle town one of the most. prosperous In the State of Missouri.

Probably the most beloved figure in Ste. Genevieve is Father Charles L. Van Tourenhaut. 6te. Genevieve's own "Father Van," who was the first to conceive t h e idea of celebrating the town's anniversary with the historical pageant. H e also was the celebrant a t the pontiflca? high mass on Mon- day morning and was tho leading light in the ent i re celebration. Pabher Tourenhaut has been the parish Priest a t Ste. Genevieve for 45 years and is beloved by everyone In the commun- ity.

The historical pageant presented during the bicentennial was divided into five episodes. with one episode being given each evening.

The first episode dealt with the mound buliders, showing them a t work, taking part i11 a wedding and conducting a burial.

The second episode was devoted to the first of the red men, showing In- dian life, a hunting party and trouble between the Peoria and Osage Indians settled peacefully in a parley between the two tribes and a peace dance.

The third episode depicted Mar- quette and Joliet coming down the Mississippi River. The river In this scene was made possible by damming a small stream that runs through the piece of ground where the pageant was given, and which flowed between the s tage and the bowl of seats. The episode continued with these two men landing, being received by the Indians, visiting all t h e teepees and Anally leaving again. This was in 1672 when Louis Joliet had been sent to And the Mississippi and had met Marquette a t Maclzinac and traveled with him a s far south a s the mouth of t h e Ar- kansas.

The arrival of Father St. Cosme (in 1690) was shown in t h e fourth epi- sode. H e had come from the Great Lakes and arrived a t the s i te of Ste. Genevieve just in time to prevent a human sacriflce. H e remained t o preach to the Indians and turn them toward gentler customs.

In t h e RnaI episode, St. Cosme is shown a b u t to leave t h e Osages to travel downstream. They warned him of a rock which they believed was in- habited by evil spirits and beyond which no boatman had ever passed. To calm their fears the Priest planted a cross upon t h e rock and t h e epi- sode ended with a n 4ngei chorus.

Wednesday was Missouri Day a t the bicentennial and Governor and Mrs. Guy B. Park were guests of honor. On this day tmhe main event was a huge parade in which practically every city within a hundred miles of Ste. Genevieve was represented by a beautifully decorated float. WYth the gorgeous profusion of colors tha t pre- dominated In t h e parade and the many, many beautiful girls w h o graced these floats, this parade was one of the most beautiIuI sights of the entire celebration.

I t is estimated that abo& 66,000 people visited Ste. Genevieve and saw the pageant during this week of the celebration and those in charge were more than pleased, feeling tha t thelr efforts had been well rewarded by tche unusually large attendance and the enthusiastic way everyone entered in- to the spirtt of the occasion.

Ste. Genevieve can well be proud of the bicentennial celebration, for i ts success was a reward of weeks and months of hard work and grueling re- ,hearsing, and t h e whole-hearted c e operation of everyone in the entire community.

A Reuiew of "The New Wonder World"

T HERE is not a child in the big Frisco family but y h o would find the "New Wonder World" a

great ald i n school work . . . and when references a re not needed, they will peruse the pages of these In- teresting volumes because or their clear and delightful presentation and because, in t h e eleven volumes which comprise "The New Wonder World," practically every question a child might ask, or need to ask is answered.

"The New Wonder World" Is a se t at 11 books, a reference llbrary for home and school that is designed to fit pre-school, primary and elementary needs. It stimulates every interest that builds character.

Here a re t h e titles of the 11 vol- umes: Tfie World and I ts Peoples; Invention .and Industry: The Nature Book; Adventure and Achievement ; Story and Art; Sports, Pastimes and Handicraft; The History Book: The Literature Book: Tbe Child i n the Home; The Wonder of Life: Homo and School Guide and Index.

The information is given in such a n ingenious way. For instance, in Vol- ume 4, Adventure and Achievement, in fancy a trip is made to Mars by air- plane, where the great explorers and discoverers of the world are found. Each tells his own story of his achievements. Marco Polo tells of his discovery of China and Japan; Colum- bus of America; Magellan how he first sailed around t h e world, etc. Then there a re chapters on how the world was discovered; adventures with wild animals; man a s a builder; roads and bridge making; the story of ships, irrigation, the Panama canal.

The Wonder of Life, Volume 10, takes 11p such a series of interesting subjects a s would intrigue a11 ages.

For Instance. the cycle of life; birds that fly under water; life in three zones; Ilfe, the master builder; the business of living; nature's weapons and the machinery of our bodies.

The Nature Book, Volume 3, tells in story form how nature protects itself . . . .butterfites, fish, frogs, reptiles and birds have their own particular stories which deal with their habits, and there a re suggestions for making many interesting Nature studies and collections. What boy wouldn't thrill with the reading of the subjects dis- cussed in the Nature Book!

For the primary age there is the book of bedtime verse and rhymes and even stories told by the use of pictures, The World and Its Peoples, still another volume, deals with sub- jects such a s the earth, the s tars and planets, the sea and i ts marvels, the Indians of America, etc.

With the school year a t hand. school children will find this New Wonder World of infinite value a s R

reference library in the home. Moth- - ers and Dads will Sod each volume a welcome companion for a long winter evening. The book9 a r e beautifully bound, the "Rainbow Binding" stand- ing the wear of many little hands aud fingers.
