FATHER M\TIII.\S COMFORTING A GEEST AT THE CAPUCHIN CHARITY GUILD
Father Mathias, guardian of the mon
astery. at the Capuchin soup kitchen in
Mt. Klliott avenue where more than
.'IOO.OOO free meals arc served each year
By DOROTHY WILLIAMS
They might he railed ihe men
whom fortune forgot- these men
like Scotty and Joe and Cookie
whom you find eating hungrily any
week day at the Capuchin Charity
Guild soup kitchen. 1750 Mt. Klliott
avenue.
Anonymously they shuffle inlo
the kitchen each day for their free
food. Usually they number more
than 1,000 and they begin arriving
•shortly after 8:30 a. m., filtering
in throughout the day.
No one asks their faith, their
pasts, their comings and goings—
not even their names.
Their hunger for the. food set
before them is pnough to recom
mend them to the Capuchin
fathers.
Invariably they tell a story of
betrayal by circumstances.
Auto workers, whose savings
vanished during layoffs and mis
fortune. are numerous among the
soup kitchen diners.
3 Sisters Helped
Often Father Mathias, guardian
of the monastery, learns there is a
needy wife at the home of one of
the diners. Then he sends a basket
of food and an investigator to look
into the case.
Occasionally the soup kitchen
charity extends out to help some
group such as the three sisters —
all well [vast 70 and dependent
ufxin sparse earnings as office
cleaners.
Now the Capuchin Charity
Guild, which incidentally has Prot
estants and Jews as well as Calh
olics among its members, is at
tempting to raise $20,000.
Funds are to he used to put a
full basement below Ihe hall to
store the food which goes into the
300.000 free meals they serve an
nually. They also hope to con
struct a new floor strong enough to
allow them 1o feed all the men
simultaneously.
