Miss Lauretta Dibble, Form
erly of Kenosha, Makes
Record AS Pastors Assis-
tant At Oshkosh.
HAS A VERY BUSY TINE.
Wisconsin Congregational Church
Life Tells How Kenosha Woman Is
a Busy Church Assistant - Is
Well Known In Kenosha.

Another Kenosha woman has blazed
he way to success in her chosen line of
work. It is Miss Lauretta Dibble, the
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Claude III.
Dibble and she has won high praise as
the pastors assistant at the First Con-
gregational church in the city of Osh-
kosh. The story of her success is told
in the current copy Of the Wiscon-
gregational Church Life, a monthly
periodical devoted to the work of that
denomination in this state. This edi-
ton of the magazine has a picture Of
the Kenosha woman on the cover page
and tells in one of its special articles
of her splendid work in the northern
city.
Miss Dibble lived in Kenosha until
a short time ago when she left this city
to attend training college in Chicago
to fit her for the work which she is
doing in Oshkosh. She had been active
in the work of the Congregational
church here when the Rev. Theodore
Faville, formerly pastor Of the Congre
gational Church of Kenosha and now
pastor of the Oshkosh church of that
denomination, was in need of an assist
ant and a year ago he recommended the
kenosha young lady for the position.
How successful she has been is dem
onstrated by the following excerpts
from an article written by the Rev.
Faville for the state paper in regard to
her work:
In the church she performs three
fold function: financial secretary, pas
tor s assistant, and director of young
people IS work. Besides this she has
given addresses for the Sunday School
Association on Sunday School Methods
and has taken the lead in Camp Fire
Girls Work for the whole city Of Osh-
kosh. She also supervises all through
the week activities of the young folks
such as basket ball, pool table, dances
socials, plays, ETC., and as she is a Sun
day School trained worker, teachers
and officers call upon her for guidance
and help continually in the church
scAool.
As financial secretary she handles
all incoming money for the regular bud
get, and also that for benovelences, and
such special funds as the recent debt
raising. 1t means lot of bookkeeping
and also collecting by statement,
phone and personal calls.
s AS pastors assistant she gets out
most of the mail, sometimes sending
out thousands of letters in single
busy winter month; edits the church cal
endar, answers all phone calls often
from twenty to thirty a day, keeps up
complete files, cards and clippings,
catalogues, and so forth, for church and
school, and does the hundred other
things that cannot be listed.
Her life ought to inspire young wo-
men who want something to do to be-
come church assistants.

work, to know what is being done, what
is not being done, and what ought to
be done. It will be a great thing for
the church to have budget, to know
what money is being raised, how it is
being spent, and how much more is
needed But it will be a still greater
thing for the church to feel a nation
wide stirring Of her faith and life; to
move as whole in one united, splendid
endeavor; to reach with the touch of
living, personal interest every indi-
vidual within her fold.
"This will mean a church aroused
and alive, ready to meet not doubtfully
nor unwillingly, but gladly and conf
IDENTIFY, the mighty tasks and the I'M
equaled opportunities of the new world
in which we are now living
The message was received with en-
thusiasm by the members of st. Mat
thew's Church, all of whom are now
enlisted heart and soul in the movement
which will mean new life and power for
the Episcopal church in the United
States.

FALL IN FOR cHow!',
Kenosha Ex-service Men Will Banquet
at the Elks Home at Seven
O'Clock This Evening.

The widest food-orgies staged in
French or American mess-halls will pale
into insignificance before the banquet.
for ex-service men to be given at the
Elks Home at seven o'clock this even
ing. The dinner has been arranged by
the WelcomeHome Committee with
peculiar care. It's members have tried
to include everything that the soldiers
wanted but couldn t get in the army
and to exclude those delicacies of
which they had more than enough in
barracks both here and over there. For
instance there will be no gold fish or
slum gullion; chocolate pudding, tapioca
and apricots will be equally taboo, so
that no ex-seryice man need fear that
the function will revive unpleasant
memories of a mess-kit, an unclothed
board, and sail between him and his
buddy on the other side of the board.
Instead there will be china plates,
h. t. e. silverware, and hung all around
them food instead of mess, as good as
any ever served by K. P. IS to captains,
majors, or colonies. It is expected that
at least hundred and seventy-five ex-
service men will attend the dinner
and participate in its vari-pleasured
revelry.
