WILL CELEBRATE
DIAMOND JUBILEE
St. Francis Xavier Congre.
CATION to Hold Jubilee
on Tuesday.
ARCHBISHOP TO SPEAK

One Of the most notable church cere-
monies in the history of Kenosha
county will take place next Tuesday
at the St. Francis Xavier church in
the town Of Brighton when that parish
will celebrate its diamond jubilee
Seyenty-fEe years ago June %, 1916
the church was founded, the Rev. Nor
risey, one Of the pioneer guests of
southern Wisconsin, being present on
that occasion. This event and other
historic incidents of the seventy-five
years Of the life Of. the church will be
celebrated by the congregation at the
jubilee Tuesday, when the Right Rev.
Sebastian G. Messmer, archbishop of
the diocese, will pontifcate.
The jubilee service will start at ten
O'Clock. A cordial invitation has been
extended to all people in Kenosha
county to attend the ceremony.
Has Interesting History.
The congregation has one of the
most interesting histories of any
church in Kenosha county. 1t was es-
tablished in 1916 the same year that
the, ST. James. church of Kenosha, was
feunded-under the patronage of st.
Patrick and was named for this saint.
The Rev. Fathers Morrisey, Martin
Kendig and Leonard Blum were some
of the pioneer pastors Of the church
Under the latter's direction, the school
and Sisters home was built in 1876
and this has come to be one of the
best known of the parochial schools
of the county.
Destroyed by Cyclone.
On May the 18th, 1883, a cyclone
struck the village of Brighton and the
old brick church was levelled to the
ground. The Rev. Father F. x. Etsch-
man, who for years served the congre-
cation and was one Of its most beloved
pastors, was the leading spirit in re-
building the new church which was
named the st. Francis Xavier church
and which is the present structure of
the congregation.
Among the more recent pastors of
the church was the Rev. Nicholas
Weyer, who for several years served
the congregation faithfully. The pres
ent pastor is the Rev. A. Krause, who
came to the congregation two years ago
and who has become one of the most
popular and efficient pastors that the
congregation has ever had. Many of
the former pastors of the church have
been invited and are expected to at
tend the jubilee.
The church has branches both of the
ST. Mary's Society Of Married Women
and Of the st. Roses society Of Young
Ladies' and these organizations are to
help In the work Of preparing for the
diamond jubilee. celebration.
