Julius Kuehn has set
the pace in the building of a new cement sidewalk in front of his business
block of Second Street, and several others have fallen in line for the same
kind of substantial improvement. A
cement walk is by far the cheapest in the long run and is generally being
adopted in all of the larger cities. When once laid in the proper form, it will
remain for a life time. The life of a board walk is only seven years, at best.

The infant child of
Albert Kirns, aged 2 years, lost its middle finger yesterday. It was chopped
off by his four-year-old brother while the children were at play in the
woodshed. The bone was badly crushed and the finger hanging by a mere thread,
so that Dr. Blair had to amputate it.
King Edward VIII of the United Kingdom and Queen Alexandra
were crowned at Westminster Abbey on August 9.

Twenty-five years ago,
next Sunday, way back in 1877 when Kaukauna was but a small village and the
south side of the river was still a wilderness only dotted here and there by
fields of cultivated farm lands, Rev, R. Pieper gathered a few of the Lutheran
faith in this vicinity together and founded the Evangelical Lutheran Trinity
Church of Kaukauna.
