- The Globe Bazaar
The Globe Bazaar THE EVENT OF THE WEEK. A SUCCESSFUL AND FASHIONABLE FUNCTION. The Globe Bazaar, which has been the event of the week in local circles, has proved an un- qualified success. For months preparations have been in progress to- ensure that the func- tion should be carried through without a hitch and that the resultshouJd justify the hard work and careful planning of the indefatigable secretaries, Messrs. C. Greenhalgh and J. For- rester. and the many other willing workers, who have given both time and money in order that their church should be free from a heavy and dlcumberingclabt. Happily their labours have not been in vain, and when accounts are settled we believe' it will be found tha.t by the cheerful co-operation of the parishioners and friends the debt had been very substantially reduced. THE VICAR (REV. J. F. REECE, B.A.). OBJECTS AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BAZAAR In mentioning the objects of the bazaar we cannot do better than give the description in the opening pages of the Official Handbook, which has generally been described as one of the best arranged and most tastefully and neat- ly printed works of its kind ever offered in connection with a bazaar in any part -of the country: "The Globe Bazaar, which takes place at the Town Hall, Llandudno, on the 24th, 25th, 26th, and 27th of August, 1909, is in aid of the- build- ing of new vestries ajnd organ chamber at St. Paul's Church. The cost of these additions with few other improvements amounts to 1,2200, and of this sum one thousand has been already raised by contributions during the past year. The object of the bazaar therefore is to secure the remaining £ 1200. St, Pau] s Church is situated in the parish of Llanrhos, which 'in- cludes a considerable part of the town of Llandudno, and has been erected as a Memorial to His Royal Highness the late Duke of Clarence. The foundation stone was laid as far back as the year 1895 by Her Royal High- ness the late Duchess of Teck, but the Church has had to be completed in seicticns as the money came to hand. The building is now internally complete, and only the spire remains to be added at some futurel time. The Church. which is a spacious and noble structure, con- tains seating accommodation for one thousand worshippers, and was designed1 by Mr Oldrid Scott, architect, Westminster. A large sum of money has been already spent upon its erec- tion, and this was secured by great effort and self-saccrific-e on the part of those interested in the cause of the Church in this extensive parish. Several bazaars have been held in former years in aid of this Ch-u!reli, and these were attended by very satisfactory results. The present committee is doing its utmost to make this venture a success, and, everything that can possibly make a bazaar attractive and 'bly entertaining will be attended to." MR. JOSEPH WINTER (Churchwarden). THE PATRONS. The was held under the most dis- tinguished patronage «>f H.S.H. Princess Pless, The Hon. The Countess .of Dundonald, The Right Hoi.

Treasurer and secretary, Mr Charles Greer halgn, Parr s Bank, Llandudno. The Vicar, in opening the proceedings, in- vited his hearers to accompany him on a tour round moist of the principal countries of the world. He would also urge them to act as all travellers did when visiting foreign countries and buy substantial presents to take home to their friends.—(Applause.) They had nothing shoddy in the .bazaar, all the .articles were good and well-made. In addition to those shewn on the different stalls he had for sale a peacock and two peahens which a lady had offered him.—(Laughter.) They would be sold to the highest bidder, and forwardle,d. Coolnel Mostyn briefly explained the absence of Lord Mostyn, and the objects of the bazaar. He hoped the efforts of the ladies and gentle- men who had worked sio,haxcl would be crown- ed with success,—(Applause.) Theire were over a thousand worshippers in the Church, and he hoped many of them would come to the bazaar and carry away some memento of their visit.-(He,sr, hear.) He had great pleasure in asking Lady Dundonald to open her second bazaar in aid of St. Paul's Church. THE COUNIEISS OF DUNDONALD. Lady Dundonald, who was cordially received, said that it was a great plf asure to her to open the bazaar and she sincerely thanked them for the invitation. There was no occasion for her to make a, speech, and had great pleasure in declaring the bazaar open.—(Applause.) Miss Dorothy Alison Greenhalgh then stepped forward ,and presenited Lady Dundonald with a beautiful bouquet, which was gracefully ae e,e,pt-e d. She, was a sweet little white-robed figure in .soft lace and muslin, with a charm- ingly quaint tiltedl satin straw hat, trimmed with lace and daisies. Mr L. Hi. Edminson, proposing a vote of thanks to the Countess of Dundonald and Col. Mostyn..said they were, very grateful to them for their assistance. The name of Dundonald recalled a great and notable fe.ajt in the history of the nation.—{Applause)—while the name of Mostyn had been an honoured one tbroughout the age s.-(-kppl,a,uis e.) Lady Augusta Mostyn had done much to help forward the gopd cause from the very beginning. She was still with them to give them the benediction of a long and holy life.—(Hear, 'hear.) Mr Chantrey, in .seconding, said they felt deeply indebted to t,,ho Countess of Dundonald for opening the bazaar and launching their ship on the deep waters of success.—(Hear, hear.) Her Ladyship then .made a tour of the stalls, conducted by Col. and Mrs Henry Mostyn. THE STALLS AND STALLHOLDERS. The stalls each represented a different coun- try, and the attendants, or most of them, were attired in National costume. In a larger hall, MISS DOROTHY ALISON GREENHALGH. I THE OPEiNIN:3 CEREMONY. There was a, very large attendance at the opening ceremoiy on' Tuesday, over which the Right Hon. Loird Mostyn had been announced to presiide. CHis Lordship, ■ owing to the death of one of his oldest tenants at Mostyn, was LORD MOSTYN. not able to be present, Celone-I the Hon. Henry Mostyn taking his place. The Countess of Dundonald was greeted with hearty ap- plause when she entered1 the hall, and ascended the platform, which had been most tastefully draped. The Rev. Francis J. Reece, B.A., Mr L. H. Edminaon, M.A., and Mr S. Chantrery also occupied seats on the platform. Her Ladyship wore. a grey gown, almost cover- ed hy a quiet toned green cloak, a pale lilac coloured hat, trimmed with natural tinted roses ■ j where attendants and customers could have moved about with greater freedom,, the pretty e-ffect would have been greatly enhanced. FRANCE. Th first stall on entering through the doos on the right hand sider was "France," and the lady attendants either wore tihe tri-colour rib- bons in the form of rosettes or hat trimming or sashes bearing the motto, "Vive.la France." The. special feature of the stall was, however, not articles of French manufacture, but of Japanese and Chinese. Of these there was quite a wonderful collection of charms, lucky stones, rosaries of jade, fans, Kimonas, fancy 'buttons, table centres, cushion covers, etc., not to mention such curious a nicies as "tongue scrapers" and "back scratcheirs" of silver. There was also on view some "Louis Wain" pottery, which found a ready sale,, and some .beautiful photographs in porcelain of Ryland's pictures. The stall wais in charge of Mrs Madan and Miss Cbtterill, assisted by Mrs and Miss Ohm, Miss Pilkington, and Miss Winifred Jones. BOHEMIA. From France into Bohemia, was but a step. Basket work was a prominent feature of this stall.. some of it bought .specially for the bazaar from the Lrake of Corno, with samples .of Swiss and Italian work. There was also a collection of heiutifully. carved wooden ani- mals, the work of Russiajn peasants, and very rairBly to be obtained in the country, together with a variety of other useful and fancy articles collected from all parts of the King- dom. Mrs Edminson was in charge of this stall, and had the assistance of the Misses Edminson and a number of friends. LADY AUGUSTA MOSTYN. JAPAN. The Mostyn Stall was held under the flag of Japan, but the four nuarters of the globe had contributed to its stores. Conspicuous amongst its treasures were beautiful Japanese em- broideries and Kimonas, silk embroidered ,stati-onery cases, chiaiste oriental china, and a number of Japanese fairy tale books which would delight the youngsters. From Poland came a selection of buttons of exquisite de- sign, while England was represented among countless other articles by choice Ruskin pottery. The Hon. Lady Augusta, Mostyn, the Hon. "Lady Mostyn, the Hon. Mrs Henry Mostyn land, the Hon. Miss Mostyn and Miss Beamish were the stallholders. GREECE, From the land of the Mikado, the most youthful member of the powers of the world to Greece the power of the old world was a quick change indeed'. This was the stall of the St. Paul's Sewing Class, thef members of wh;ch were robed in the graceful garments worn when the nation's star was at its brightest-and were a pleasing contrast to modern modes. Lady Augusta Mostyn was an early purchaser at this stall, securing a. handsome silver vase which had been presented to the ladies by Mr W. Duncan. The mainstay of the stall, how- ever. was the work of the ladies themselves at the weekly meetings held during the past year. Much humo,ir has been extracted: out of the alleged manner in -which ladies pass away the hours at the Church Sewing Class, but the amount and quality of the work -exhibited on this occasion was positive proof that the St. Paul's Sewing Class had met to work and moreover did work. The Princess Henry of Pless was a contributor to this stall, her offer- ing being a, large consignment of beautiful china. The stallholders were Miss Smith (president,), Miss Dreyer (hon. secretary), Mrs Anderson, Mrs Dewe, Miss Heward, Miss Faweett, Miss Planck, Miss Harrison, Miss Lily Jones, Miss Elphick, Miss E. M. John- ston, and Miss Davies while valuable assist- aince was rendered by the Hon. Mary Hughes, Kirimel. SPAIN. The handbook claimed that the ladies at the Spanish stall "hod toiled ,and spun," but that fact was quite evident. Some of the needle- work had been sent in ,connectioin with a com- petition, the result of which is given below. Pottery was also much in evidence, Doulton's being represented by the Rouge, Flambe vases, other makers who sent samples of their produc- tions being Minton, M-addox, Jones and Son, and Minton Hollins, and Co. A number of "tumbling tommies" made of buckram by the skilful fingers of the ladies were quickly sold as presents for the young folks at homei. Mrs Grose presided over this stall, and she had the assistance of Mrs Powell, Mrs Walmsley, Mrs T. B. Farrington, Miss Olive Jones, Miss Gladys Cooper, and Miss Winifred Robinson. The competition conditions were that the materials (for each article sent in should not cost more than one shilling. The winners were Mrs Farrington, Miss Weeds and Mrs Roberts (Huyton). HOLLAND. Proceeding on the itineTary Holland was the next country to be visited. 'The stall was a very welcome one, for it contained the where- withal to fortify the traveller on a long jour- ney. At this stall he could lay in a, store of provisions that would suffice him for the half of his trip round the globe. The only product of Dutch origin appeared to. be a num- ber of cheeses and cocoa, but there were grouse direct from the Scotch moors, fruit and vegetables from. Welsh gardens, and pro- prietary articles from English, firms too numerous to mention. The stallholders were Mrs Greenhalgh, Miss Kerr, the Misses Marston, who had as assistants Miss D. Whittuck, Miss Greenhalgh, and Miss Fripp. ARMENIA. Another stall cosmopolitan in character was that dubbed) Armenia, and presided over by Mrs and Miss 'Kle,n,'Aliss J. P. Craig and Miss B. D. Craig. There were ice mats from. Iceland, lamp shades from Japan, china from India, art needlework of every description. There was also a Japanese gong of wonderful workmanship and very rarely to be obtained in this oouintry, and metal work from India. Those in search of presents of unique character had no difficulty in finding what they wanted from amongst the "dainty samples at this busy maKt." COUNCILLOR HENRY WILSON. AMERICA. Having crossed the greater part of Europe and the "herring-pond" at a single' stride the globe trotter landed in America, where "Presi- dent" Henry Wilson welcomed one and all. The president did not sport the "stars and stripes," but his lady assistants in disposing of his wares did and were conspicuous among the many nationalities represented. The stall was described as that of the Church officers, who had gathered together a thousand and, one articles of utility, with a sprinkling of the ornamental, represented mainly by a consign- ment of Devonshire pottery, quaint in design and bearing appropriate mottoes. The atten- dants were Miss Currie, Miss Backhouse, Miss Ethel Backhouse, Miss Edith Backhouse. Mrs Betteridge, Mrs Mcintosh, Mrs Henry Wilson, Miss Woodcock, Miss 'Thistle, Miss Weeds, Miss Tipper, Mrs Evans, Mrs Jennings, Mrs Robson, and Mrs Kenyon. SWITZERLAND. Retracing his steps the ItTavellerwas invited to inspect the, products of the land of the Alps, in the form of model chalets, spinning wheels, etc., and also some carved woodwork, present- ed by converts to Christianity residing in Jerusalem. Art nedlework was -also a strong feature at the stall, but pride of place was given to a. cape made in Norway from the down of the cormorant, decorated with the wing feathers of the same bird. There was also a quantity of mats, made under the auspices of the Carnarvonshire branch of the Brabazon Society. Mrs Walsh presided at this stall, assisted by Miss Williams and Miss Pass. SCOTLAND. Decorated, with the national emblem, the thistle and heather of the Scotch stall was laden with household linen of every descrip- tion. At the other stalls travellers were tempt- ed in the main to purchase the ornamental or the quaint; at this stall they could only obtain whatar.e in every day use in .any h-Qu.se hoM, < however humble. The stock included a quan- tity of fine linen, from the Looms, Dysert, Scotland, which the stallhdderls ha-fl. no diffi- culty in transferring to buyers, who knew a good article when they saw it. The stall- holders were Mrs Bone, Miss Amy Rawston, Miss Evans, and Miss E. Bone. ENGLAND. By the time the traveller arrived at the English stall his trip round the globe was drawing to a close. The stall was a remark- ably well filled one, art needlework pre- dominating. Cushions, tea cosies, afternoon tea cloths, etc. from the background of the stall, the front being occupied with a .selection of dolls, of every shape and size, dainty knick- knacks, and other articles .dear to the feminine mind, varying in price from the modest six- penes to as many pounds.. The stall was in charge of Mrs Oonolly and Miss Wallwork, assisted by Mrs T'wigg, Mrs Pritchard, Miss Marsden, Miss M. Marsden, Miss Rome, Miss M. Rome, and Miss J. Rome. NORWAY. It seemed strange to meet at the Norway stall with sacred cats from the banks of the Nile, Venetian necklaces and similar articles from Cairo. These articles were supplementary to the large quantity of needlework, the result of the meeting together of the ladies attend- ing All Saints, Deganwy, another of the churches in the parish of Llanrhos. Mrs Huttchings was the honorary secretary of the working party, and she with Miss R. Hutch- ings, Miss Conolly, Miss Johnston, and Miss A C. Johnston presided over the sales. JERSEY. Dainty chocolates and high-class sweets of every description, were stocked at the stall, but the 'stallholder's assistants clad in dairy- maid costumes, were to' be met with in all parts of the hall. They were most enter- prising in disposing of their wares. Miss Wood, Pabo Hall, was in charge, her assist- ants being Mrs Geiorge Thomas and, Miss Mary Pilkington. CUBA. At the Cuban Kiosk one was fain to cry a halt, for a, birief space of time, for here the traveller was tempted with "Sublime tobacco, packed in the daintiest manner, and arranged effectively and artistically under the superin- tendence of Mrs Arthur W. Payne. The stall did not occupy very much space in cubic feet, .but it was frequently resorted to by male 'bazaar workers when .opportunity came for a quiet, soothing, pull at cigar, cigarette or pipe. Mrs Payne's assistants in the brisk business were Mrs and Miss Stamper. WALES. "Home at last," and a. very charming home presided over by Mrs Arnold, Deganwy, for it was a florally-bedecked one that captivated one and all. Not many travellers entered its portals without securing one of the dainty .buttonholes whi,ch the little Welsh maidens' 'had to offer. Most of the gardens in the neighbourhood had contributed their quota, flowers and fruit being sent from Mostyn Hall, Gloddaeth, Boidysgallen, Caerhun, Pabo., Bir- mingham Convalescent (Home, Mrs John Walker, Mr Wainwright, Mr Hamer, Mrs Piatt, Mrs Wm. Sever, Mrs Downing, Mrs Johnson, Dr. Simpson, etc. 'The stall had, been arranged by Mr H. Greenfield, F.R.H.S., steward of the Convalescent Homes, whose valuable assist- ance was much appreciated by the ladies-in- charge of the stall. Mrs Arnold was ,assist.e,d by Miss Arnold, Miss Paget, Miss Sleigh, Miss Lloyd (Penmanelmawr), and Miss May Jenkins (Pemnaenmawr). hon. secretary of the Carnar- vonshire Branch of the Welsh Industries' Association. IRELAND. The Council Chamber upstairs had been con- verted into tea, supper and refreshment rooms, where refreshments ,could be obtained at very moderate prices. The attendants were attired in the green costumes of the "distressful country," and deftly supplied the wants of all comers. In the afternoon Miss Champneys and Miss Edith Champneys took charge, with Miss Holt, Miss Waddy, the Misses Jones (Gyffin Rectory), Miss Farringto-n, Miss A. Farffington, Miss C. Farrington, and Miss Parr ts assistants. In th.3 evening (when a, speciality was made of one-and-sixpenmy suppers) Mrs Roberts (Huyton) and Mrs Richards undertook the superintesndance, the assistants being Miss Roberts, Miss Gis Roberts, Miss B. Pemberton, Miss Underwod, and Miss Tipper. SIDE SHOWS AND ENTERTAINMENTS. Never in the history of bazaars held in Llan- dudno has there been such a list of special at- tractions announced. In addition to the famous Artillery band, which played selections throughout the day, concerts and enterLain- ments were given in the Cafe Chantant by Messrs F. Siegl. W. Haigh, W. J. Claxton, A. Halstead, G. Atkinson, and IH. Jarvis, of the Scottish and Llandudno Pier Orchestras. The well-known and deservedly popular society entertainer, Mr Tlhornley-Dodge, Mr W. J. Churchill and his minstrels, the former repre- senting Mr Lloyd-George, M.P.; Mr Arthur Sutcliffe, of the pier pierrots, Mr Revill Hall's Entertainers, and the Scarlet Men-ions. No bazaar given by our Church friends would be complete without the Misses Ciss and Nell Roberts' "Juvenile Pierrots." As usual they were excellent, and drew big at- tendances. Mr F. J. Sarson was the show- man at Mrs Jarlev's Living Waxworks, and his local touches of humour were distinctly clever. The L.A.D.S. produced 'The Fair Equestrienne' and the St. Paul's Dramatic Club "The Man in the Street." The services of that popula,r Society Palmist, MadJame Alpha, had been secured. The Art Gallery of Mr Temple, R.A., did steady business, and the Misse,5 F. Nutlall and Taylo-ir had a unique collection of Palestine Exhibits. "Jumbo's Head," "The Shocking Gallery," "FaiiTy Well," and "Magic Pump," all assisted to interest the visitors and sight- seers. THE BAZAAR COOKERY BOOK. Mention should be made of the Bazaar Cookery Book, edited by Miss Currie, Mrs Jen- nings, Mrs West, and Miss Klein. This little book, of over forty pages, contained a number of recipes contributed from far and near, and which had' been tested by the contributors and found good. The price of the book. was only one shilling. The takings amounted to £ 252 lis. SECOND DAY. BISHOP OF ST. ASAPH. The Lord Bishop of St. Asaph was unable to be present to preside at the opeiin- ceremony on the second day, and the duty devolved upon the Ven. ArchdeaoonEvan i, whose name was, said the Vicalr in making the announcement, a household one in Wales, and he was looked upon as the Gxand., old man of the Welsh Chu-rch.-(L,ou,d applause.) Archdeacon Evans, in calling upon Lady Llangattock to open the bazaar, referred to her Ladyship's visit to Llandudno last year to be present at the Welsh Industries' Exhibition, and to the numerous gathcrirgs connected with Wales in which she had taken an active part. LADY LLANGATTOCK. Lady Llangattock, who looked well in a gown of heliotrope colotutred silk, with panels of Spanish lace, small toque and ostrich feather boa, was accorded very hearty applause on rising to declare the sale open, and in the course of an interesting address, said it giave her very great pleasure to come there at the request af her kind friend and relative, Lady Augusta Mostyn, to open that charming bazaar in aid of St. Paul's Church, which she understood was not yet completed, and owing to an increase in the population of the parish the church was much required. Lady Augusta .and her family had, she knew, the welfare of the Church very much at heart, and they had done a great deal in advancing its erection, and were therefore most anxious to see its completion. When Lady Augusta asked her to open that sale of work on behalf of the Church she felt she must do her best to comply with ithe request and come there if possible, and she was glad to be able to help in however .small a way such a, ,good work.. In those days it was of especial importance that the C'hurchpeople of Wales should rally- xoundi the Church tanid support each other in every effort on its behalf..Some little time ago the present government seemed to make a de- termined attack upon the Church and to in- fringe the ranciÍient nights of the Church and take away the endowments left by devout Ohurchpeople centuries ago for the use of the Church for future generations. Welsh people were, she knew, intensely loyal to their Church. Only two months ago. she had the pleasure of ope.-iin- a bazaar in aid of St. Mary's Welsh Church, South London, where the services were Tendered in the Welsh language, and the Vicar told her it was a, great delight to the Welsh people in South London to. hear the services in their own language. She felit convinced that the Welsh National pageant that was .recently held in Cardiff hadl done much to make more widely known the stirring past history of Gallant little Wales, and she was very glad to have taken part in it as the wife of (tihe Great Welsh Prince, Owen Glendwr.-(Applause.) It was a splendid his- toric representation, and she thought it was a proof of the patriotism of the old Welsh families when so many took part in .represent- ing their countries and their ancestors as was the case with Lord Mostyn, who took the character of that great warrior, Richard ap Howell of M-astyn, to whom Henry VII. pre- sented his sword after the battle of Bosworth. -(Applause,.) She appealed to all present to support the bazaar, and trusted the result will be .highly satisfactory to her kind friends, Lord aind La,dy Mostyn, Lady Augusta, and to all the other kind workers who had taken so much trouble to organise the bazaar which she had so much pleasure in declaring open, and wishing it every success.—(Loud applause.) Mr Bone, proposing a vote of thanks to her Ladyship and Archdeacon Evans, said even the most cursory glance at. the newspapers was sufficient to reveal the interest taken by Lady Llangattock in Welsh affairs.—(Applause.) Ha was disappointed at tb-e, al sence of the Bishop, who would have been pleased to see the pro- gross made in the parish.—(Hear, hear.) The pace was a fast one under the Rev. Francis Jones, and Whatever it was then it had been well maintained by their present vicar, who would very likely be known as a "srcorcher. (Laughter.) The Church was united, and they meant to clear off the debt.—(Applause.) Mr Winter, in seconding, drew attention to the great improvement the alterations had effected, and hoped that some kind friends would come forward! at no distant date and help them to get an organ worthy of the church, and then a new spire.—{Applause.) The receipts amounted to zEl68 16s. 4d., the- total for the two days being zP,421 7s. 4d. THIRD DAY. MR. JOHN WAINWRIGHT, J.P. Mr John Wainwright, J.P., presided at the opening ceremony on Thursday, and in call-- CONTINUED ON PAGE 7
