A wedding Of great interest to MEM
bers of the Episcopalean church in
Milwaukee and all over Wisconsin will

Kemper Hall on next Tuesday morn
ing when Miss Helen E. Chappelle of
Kenosha will become the bride of the
Rev Charles N. Lathrop, Dean of All
Saint s Cathedral in Milwaukee and
prominent among church men through
out Wisconsin and internationally
known for the great work he did in
Europe and America during the war.
The ceremony will be very quiet one.
The wedding service will be, read by
the Rev. Charles Everett Mccoy in
the presence of a very few close per-
sonal friends Of the Dean and his
bride.
The wedding comes as a elimination
of a romance which started when Dean
Lathrop was Rector Of the Church Of
the Advent in San Francisco. N Miss
Chappelle was one of his most inter
esting parishioners.
Later the Rector Of the Church
Of the Advent came east and he was
selected as one Of the aids of Her
bert Hoover in the great work of TAX
ing care Of the starving people Of Bel
GUM. He gained the thanks Of the AL
lied nations by the manner in which
he handled the problem Of feeding the
people Of the beleagured city Of Leige
in Belgium. He remained in that city
until it finally was taken by the Ger
mans and later he returned to this
country. He was made Dean of the
Cathedral in Milwaukee and since
that time he had given much time to
relief work connected with the army
and with the war. In October of last
year he received "a call late in 1.-THE
night that men were dying at Camp
Logan on account of the lack of equip
ment for treating pneumonia patients.
He came to Kenosha and enlisted the
efforts of The Rev. Charles Everett Nc
Coy and the two madeia midnight ride
ito Camp Logan and discovered that five
hundred pillows were needed imme-
diately to save the lives Of men in serv-
ice there. Dean Lathrop returned to
Milwaukee and in twelve hours col
Letter half. the pillows needed while
the other half were supplied from Ke-
nosha.
He is distinguished as churchman
and is greatly beloved among the
members of the clergy.
The life of Miss Chappelle has
been quite as much connected with
the war. A woman Of high intellec-
tual attainments and Of most charm
ing personality she came to Kenosha
in the fall of 1917. She was in charge
Of an educational work in the city and
had this work well under way when
the call was sent out to find women to
fill the place of expert workers in
some of the factories of the city
working in munitions. Miss Chappelle
responded to the call and went to
work at the plant of the American
Brass company remaining in the en-
ploye of the company until a return
ing soldier came and took her position
only short time ago. Officials of the
Brass Company have declared that Miss
Chappelle gave the greatest possible
aid to this work and that her intel
ligence in handling dies aided mater
tally in making it possible for the
company to meet all the demands made
upon it by the war time government.
Dean Lathrop and his bride will
make their home in Milwaukee.
