WEDDING C0MESASSUR
Mrs. Margaret HUT, Graduate Of
Mercy Hospital and Superintend-
ent of Long Experience, To
Succeed the Bride

Cupid in the person of DR.. Emil
Windmueller has invaded the sick
rooms and wards of the Kenosha
hospital and captured the heart of
Mrs. Helen Howden Armstrong, who
for the past two years has been
superintendent of the we'll known Ke-
nosha institution. The marriage of
Mrs. Armstrong and Dr.. Windmue1ler,
who is we'll known practicing physi-
clan of Woodstock, ILL.,, was quietly
celebrated at the parsonage of the
st. James church at eleven3o'clock
this morning. The parsonge was
deliberately decorated with palms and
flowers for the occasion and only the
immediate associates of Mrs. Arm
strong at the hospital were present
when the ceremony was performed.
The ceremony was read by the Rev.
Father Malone, junior pastor of the
church. Immediately after the cere-
mony DR.. and Mrs. Windmue1ler left
for Chicago and they will leave Chica-
go this evening for the South where
they will make an extended we'd
ding tour. They will make their
home at Woodstock, ILL.,, and,will be
at home to their friends there after
the first OF February.
The announcement of the marriage
comes as complete surprise to even
the closest friends of Mrs. Armstrong
and only few of the members of the
Board of Directors of the Hospital
had been advised OF the approaching
marriage. DR.. and Mrs. Windmueller
met four years ago when the doctor
had very difficult surgical case in
which Mrs. Armstrong was the at
tending nurse and since that time
there had been strong satta cnment
between the two.
Mrs. Armstrong has been in charge
of the Kenosha Hospital since the
first of March, 1906, and under her
direction the institution shas been
greatly improved and enlarged. She
was the moving spirit in the establish
ment of the Kenosha Hospital Train
ing School and has given great deal
Of her time to the instruction of the
younger nurses of the institution.
She was very popu1ar.swith both the
nurses and patients in the 9hospital
and many who have been in the hos.
pital as patients will be pleased sto ex-
tend congratulations on the cu1mina-
ton of the romance.
The special committee ofsthe board
of directors of the hospital'have taken
immediate steps to fill the vacancy at
the hospital caused by the marriage of
Mrs. Armstrong and Mrs. Margaret
HUT, of Chicago, came to Kenosha
on Friday to take charge, Of the
institution.
The new superintendent comes
highly recommended to the members
of the board of directors; of the insti-
tuition. Like Mrs. Armstrong she is
graduate of the Mercy Hospital in
Chicago and she was member..of the
same class as the retiring superinten-
dent. Mrs. HUT has had slarge ex-
perience as a nurse. After9leaving
the hospital she worked as private
nurse in Chicago for more than a
year after which she was called to
Hot Springs to take charge of
hospital with a hundred and fifty
beds. She has been in charge of
training school in the hospital at Hot
Springs and it is thought that she is
well equipped to take charge of the
work in Kenosha.
Mrs. HUT began her new duties
this morning. No other changes will
be made at the hospital as result of
the retirement of Mrs. Armstrong
Windm ueller.
