The Mother Superior Sister Mar
garet Glare, was host today when
more than two hundred people came up
from Chicago to attend the annual pic
mic given under the auspices of the

The rain which fell this morning did
not in any way interfere with the
pleasures of the day for the visitors.
There were many entertainments pro-
vided for them and featured was the
big dinner served at noon. This after
noon there was the usual short service
in the chapel and before the guests re-
turn to Chicago late in the day a
luncheon will be served for them.
Many Of the visitors at the hall today
were people who have been attending
the "Kenosha picnics' for years and
the whole gathering was like great
family reunion. The guests were large
ly from the colony of people who are
helped by the ST. Mary's home on
Washington Boulevard in Chicago.
Many of the mothers who came up to-
day greeted happy little daughters who
are spending the summer at the sum-
mer home of the Sisters in Kenosha.
It was a great day at Kemper Hall and
many Kenosha people had the pleasure
of joining in the hearty welcome ex-
tended to the visitors.
