DEVOTED TO HER SACRED CALLING
Sister Mary Redicker Celebrates the
Twenty-ffth Anniversary of Her Pro-
fession in the Community.

Sister Mary Redicker Celebrates the
Twenty-ffth Anniversary OF Her Pro-
fession in the Community.
To the Editor ofthe Register:
SIR:-An event transpired the early
part Of this week which has not yet
been noticed in your columns, and which
deserves to be recorded. On Monday
last Sister Mary Xavier Redicker, of
the Wheeling Hospital, celebrated the
twenty-Gfth anniversary Of her profess
ion in the community of the Sisters Of
st. Joseph. Although it was not gen.
orally known that the occasion would
be observed beyond a quiet cele-
bration Of a religious character, yet
many appropriate presents were
received by the good sister from friends
far and near, which attest the high es-
TEEN in which she is held by those
who know her. Sister Mary Xavier,
known in the world as Anna Rediker,
was born in Germany, from where she
emigraJed to this country with her
parents when she was quite child.
Even then, it is said by those who
knew her intimately, that she pos
sessed those traits of character which
are considered the indications
of a vocation to the religious
life. That these were not
mere surface indications the
sequel shows, for when grown to ripe
years Miss Rediker sought to satisfy,
the desire she had long entertained OF
devotng her life to works of charity
She accordingly applied for admission
TO the community OF the Sisters Of St.
Joseph of this city, and after evidenc-
ing by some years Of trial her aptitude
for the conventual life made her pro-
fession on the 21st day Of November,
1867. Soon after Sister Xavler was as
signed TO hospital work in which ca
pacity she still serves 1t is no eXag-
geration 10 say that few have for a
quarter of century, devoted them
selves, SO unstintingly aud unselfishly to
the cause Of Christian Charity as
Sister Xavier. There are many
to-day in this broad land who owe a pro-
longation of life 10 her kind offices.
Conscientiously impressed with a deep
sense of her Christian duty, it is her
greatest delight to LABOR in the cause Of
suffering humanity. To the sick poor
she ls friend who inspires the strong
est attachments: to the homeless, she is
ever ready to give shelter; to the wan
derer and downtrodden,a helping hand.
Perfectly unselfish, swift TO sympathizs
and eager TO relieve, she has wrought
much that will be recorded only in the
book Of life. That her life OF usefulness
may be prolonged for many, many years
is the sincere wish of FRIEND.

Mr.. Holman showed that he will endeavor
