SISTERS PLAN
LARGER HOME
Carmelite Sisters Buy Pro-
perry On Wisconsin Street
To Enlarge Old Ladies
Home Here.
WILL REBUILD SOON
Work Of the Sisters Of Mercy Succeeds
Beyond Expectation in Kenosha-
Call Home the st. Joseph's Home of !
the Sacred Heart.

The Carmelite Sisters, who for two
years have been established in Keno
sha in carrying on their work of mercy,
started movement to enlarge their
establishment here on Saturday after
noon when they purchased the property
at 3f5-S1T Wisconsin street ,adjoining
their home at the corner of Wisconsin
and Sheridan Road. The purchase in
cluded the two old wooden houses just
east of the present home and an OPP
ton on the lot 100 feet east of that.
The Sisters plan to tear down the
houses in the near future and build
new additions to their present struc-
ture.
The transaction, which was closed ON
Saturday by Attorney Waiter Burke for
the Car4nelite Sisters, and Attorney
Peter Fisher for Matt p. Stahl, the
former owner of the properties, has
long been considered by the sisters.
They have outgrownd their present ac-
Communications and for several months
have been anxious to secure property
which would allow them to expand. The
realization for the property WAS said
to be in the neigh1aorhood Of $1S, 600.
Two years ago branch of the
Carmelite Sisters of the Divine Heart
Of Jesus came to Kenosha and started
a home for old women at the corner
L. De-
This institution has grown quietly I'M
til at the present time there are twenty
FIVE women at the home, all cared for
whether they have means or not. The
home has become known at the St.
Joseph's Home of the Sacred Heart
and is one of the most successful car
ried on by the sisterhood in Wiseon-
sin.
It was the original plan of the
Carnelite Sisters when they came to
Kenosha to open two homes here, one
for old men and another for old wo-
men. The purchase of the new prop
erty will probably make it possible for
them to realize this idea although de-
mands for entrance to the present
home have been so numerous as to make
additions necessary. The completed
plans of the sisters Of mercy for the
additions to their home will be made
public following a conference with
the Mother Superior of the State of
Wisconsin.
The work of the Carmelite Sisters in
Kenosha has been peculiarly successful
and the news of their expansion was
welcomed this morning. The order was
founded in Italy many years ago and
has branches in every country of,
Europe where they carry the gospel Of
mercy. In many cities their homes are
devoted to the care of orphans but IN
Kenosha they have chosen to turn
their labors to care for the aged.

CANRATA WAS CONVINCING.
''The Crucifdon'' Interpreted by st.
Matthew's Choir Portrays the
Sacred Passion OF the Master.


Matt1lew's Choir Portrays the
Sacred Passion Of the Master.
The Palm Sunday services at st.
Matthew's Episcopal Church reached
an inspiring climax on Sunday evening
in the choir's rendition of Stainer-
Simpson Is sacred classic .The Cruel
fxion''. Recitatives and hymns car
ried the story of the agony in the Gar
den and the supreme passion on the
Cross Of Calvary. Both solos and Choir
ais were interpreted with feeling and
coloring sufficiently rich and yet suf-
feiently subdued as to suggest the holy
hush Of Golgotha broken only by the
immortal words Of the Savior. Indi-
vidual offerings in the cantata were
well rendered by Mrs. R. j. Dolan, Miss
Florence Kingsley, Miss jeanette Rob
insan, James Hood, Earl Bradley, John
Hughes, and William Bose of Wauke-
gan. Accompaninents and interludes
were artistically and impressively
played by Choir Master George Mid
dleton.

LOCAL POSTOFFICE
HAS LEwTTERS FOR
OLD BANK PATRONS

Postmaster Hancock states that a
recent news item in the Journal re-
garding checks in favor of depositors
in the defunct First National bank be-
ing held in the dead letter section of
his office, has resulted in personal
inquiries there leading to the delivery
of fully half of the 500 letters which
up to that time had been undeliver-
able.
In the hope that others may be sim
ilarly benefited by a repetition of the
facts, it is again stated that a dividend
of two and a half per cent was recent
ly mailed by the receiver of the old
bank to all former depositors. The re-
ceiver, however, did not concern him
self to ascertain the exact present adj
dress of the various depositors, but
worked all the letters off easily by ad-
dressing them to Pensacola. Many of
the parties never did live in Pensa-
cola, and some who once lived here
have moved away. OF course, none of
these are deliverable by the Pensacola
office, and recent duling of Postmaster
General Burleson forbids the postmas-
ter to advertise them, which was form
erly customary.
Every one 70 the letters mentioned
contains money for the addressee who
may obtain it by seeing o addressing
the local postmaster.

much success. A large crowd attend
