NEW LAUNDRY BLESS ED BY CHAPLAIN The Feast of St. Joseph the Worker, May 1, was fittingly selected as the date for blessing the new laundry area. Laundry and linen department personnel, Sisters, the architect for our new building, plant and maintenance foremen and the construction foreman attended the ceremony, in which the areas were blessed by Father William E. Sievers, Hospital Chaplain. Shown at right are Father Sievers, Sister Mary Asella and several of the Sisters who witnessed the event. Shown at left are Mr. James 'Bud' Turner, Laundry Manager, and members of his department who will operate the latest in laundry equipment. The group is standing before the Hy-Pro Ironer, high speed ironer which will materially increase the rate of production. Another feature of the new facility will be the pass-through washer-extractors, which allow soiled linen to be inserted from one side and the clean linen to be removed from the other side. Since the machines are set into a wall partition, this will enable complete separation of clean linen from the soiled linen area. PRAYER FOR THE MONTH OF MAY - In the Catholic world. May is celebrated as the Month of Mary, Mother of God. May we, then, ask your participation in this prayer, taken from the Mass of May 31, the Feast of the Queenship of Mary: ' Oh Mary, ever Virgin, who because of your great worth God set up as Queen of the whole world, pray for our peace.
