Time Machine Trip to December 1918

December 6, 1918

Melvin A. Raught - To our abiding regret and that of everybody connected with THE TIMES, Melvin A. Raught has resigned from his connections with the paper, of which he has been foreman for the past year Mr. J. B. Kendall, formerly of the Kaukauna Sun, will replace Mr. Raught in that capacity at THE TIMES. It would be easy to write columns about Mel and yet fail to adequately express our high opinion of his worth, integrity, his keen sense of honor and our great regret that he is leaving us.  

William Van Dyke of the Vaudette theatre of this city will furnish the music for a dance in Appleton tonight.

The war industries board after it had caused weekly newspapers all the trouble it could by its order to conserve paper and cut off all subscribers except those paid in advance has notified the weeklies that the order to conserve is rescinded as the amount of paper thus saved is not worth the bothering about. It would have been better if they would have looked into this before issuing the order in the first place.

December 13, 1918

President Wilson - Those senators who are seeking public favor by heckling the president while he is engaged in the extremely delicate task of reconciling many nationalities to the terms of a just peace will find themselves in poor business. It is even more important now than ever for statesmen to rise above partisanship and think only of the highest welfare of the country. The president has been a great moral leader, inspiring the whole world with his high ideals of government and citizenship.

Mr. John Brooks of Forest Junction received an announcement from the war department on November 30 that his son Gerhard of the American Expedition forces in France was reported as missing in action. This is the second loss which Mr. and Mrs. Brooks have sustained, their son Arnold having died in a hospital in England. A third son is still in France and as of now has passed through the war unharmed.

Superintendent of the City Utility J. O. Possum and his family have had a hard siege of the sickness, the father, mother and the children being all at the same time victims of the influenza. 

Jacob Coppus - Sad news was received Monday of the death of their son, Jacob by Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Coppus of Little Chute in and official notice from Washington, D. C. The notice stated that their son, was killed in action on November 2. The grief-stricken parents are in hope that this notice may be untrue.

A Kaukauna boy who has sacrificed his life for his country’s service, Arthur Koenig, and now lies buried in French soil, the pretty story  related that in order to spare his parents any anxiety on his account while he was in France he represented in his letters home that he was engaged in Y. M. C. A. work where he was perfectly safe. As a matter of fact, the young hero was at that moment  serving in the front-line trenches and “going over the top” risking his life in the performance of his duty. Arthur Koenig’s “white lie” stands vastly to his credit typifying the spirit of the American boys in Europe whose letters show to a marked love of home.

December 27, 1918

Corporal Joseph Schoemer arrived home from Camp Zachary, Ky. Schoemer says that at Camp Taylor there are some 15,000 colored Infantry troops. They make excellent Infantry men and take great pride in becoming perfect in their work. “You should see them while on dress parade” how perfect their alignment, not an inch out of line. All the commissioned officers are white men and they speak in highest praise of the colored troops and their fighting qualities are almost on a par with the best white troops that have ever been sent “over the top”.

The Kaukauna Fibre Company’s plant which has been closed down for nearly two years on account of the building of the new electric power plant will be in full operation by the first of next week. The acid department was started up this week as well as some of the other departments, but it will be two or three days before all the machinery is running. The plant was given a general overhauling and is now in better condition than ever.

Foreman Louis Servaes has a crew of men at work for the government building new gates for the locks at the dry dock yards. The gates at the third and fourth locks have become so badly worn over the years that they were beyond further repairs.

The local saloon keepers who were arrested last month with having gambling devices in the form of slot machines in their business have plead guilty in municipal court in Appleton and paid their fines. Judge Ryan immediately issued orders to the sheriff to destroy the four confiscated machines.

The desertions in the Army had dropped to 4.6 % of the enlisted men. In 1907 the rate was 5.6 % and in 1906 the rate was 7.4%.  The highest rate was Troop G of the 14^th Cavalry which was 21.18%.  The total strength of the Army not including the hospital corps numbers 78,166.  As result of the riding tests ordered by President Roosevelt nineteen officers were placed on the retirement list.

The Kaukauna Building and Loan Association has for the past twenty years been holding out the opportunity to those who have encumbrances on their homes to get out of debt. Their plan of paying off the debt by small regular monthly payments has helped hundreds of people by getting homes of their own and by wiping out all debts against them.

The Wisconsin Traction, Light, Heat and Power Company issued an order that the inside doors of the interurban cars must remain closed. The rule was made to do with the fact that ladies are annoyed by gentlemen smoking on the platforms and that the smoke fills the cars. It is doubtful the ladies that were offended were from Kaukauna.

December 18, 1908

The front of Mulford's clothing store has been illuminated with electric light bulbs and attracts considerable attention.

A paper with some value as well as age was laid upon my desk at the Kaukauna Times last Saturday. The newspaper was published in Kingston N.Y. and was dated January 4, 1800. The paper contained the obituary of George Washington. It also briefly reviewed the proceedings of congress under the administration of President John Adams.  The little paper was well preserved, and the owner stated it is for sale if a person is interested.  I will have it on my desk for review at this office for any interested person.

The city of Kenosha is financially embarrassed or to be more exact “broke”. The First National Bank has consented to carry the city to the end of the year. It is estimated the city will be forced to borrow $10,000 to meet demands to the end of the year.

John Verstegen, who owns one of the principal buildings on Main Street, in which he conducted a furniture and shoe store, sold out to John Gloudeman.  Mr. Gloudeman will continue the run the business at the same stand.

It was announced at Washington that President Roosevelt’s hunting trip to South Africa is not to be a private enterprise.  He will lead an expedition outfitted by the Smithsonian Institution.  The President will pay his own way on the trip along with his son Kermit.

December 29, 1948

Using a sharp left hook as the clincher, Phil Zwick made his pugilistic “comeback” a roaring success with a knockout victory over Ronnie Cannon in 50 seconds of the fourth round last Thursday night in Oshkosh. Zwick weighted 125, Cannon, 128, for the scheduled ten round affair, attended by a packed house of wildly cheering fans. One of the biggest sports stories of the year was the "never say die" attitude of Kaukauna famed boxer Phil Zwick, who, on three occasions this year, stepped into the ring to prove that he is not through as a boxer. In spite of the fact that he suffered what can justly be called the worst defeat of his colorful boxing career, and even though some have labeled him as the "old man from Kaukauna", Zwick being over 40, no true boxing fan, including the "big-wigs" in the profession can dare say that the much traveled veteran is "washed up." Zwick registered a number of knockouts himself, showing nothing less than the brilliance he displayed years ago, when he traveled around the world fighting bouts, and usually winning, against champions of other nations. Phil Zwick isn't about to hang up the gloves yet.

Cliff Hinkens All-Conference forward last season and third highest scorer in the N.E.W. circuit, is currently pacing the offensive tactics of Coach Asher Shorey’s Galloping Ghost cagers.

Fortunately, none of the occupants of either buggy were injured. This is the second accident that has happened in this dark hole within the past two months. The Times would suggest putting up a couple of common post lights.

The cigarette evil is growing in Kaukauna. Many boys who would attend Sunday school and are supposed to be as good as boys can be, are victims of the habit. While their parents offer fervent prayers in church on Sunday for the salvation of the world, their boys are out in some old shed engaged in consuming the “coffin nails”. Many a young active boy has sold his future for the questionable pleasure derived from the seductive cigarette.

Will Rogers Says - “They talk about a man not being a good citizen if he don’t vote. If everybody didn’t vote, then none of the candidates could be elected and that would be the end of politics and we could just go out and hire some good man to run the country.

November 9, 1928

The New York Yankees, crack pro grid team, will face the Green Bay Packers in Green Bay Sunday. A crowd of about 10,000 people is expected to attend the game. “Red’ Smith played with the Packers last year as guard and fullback will be on the field.
