Louis Chizek and son Louis Jr., returned from hunting in Florence County.  Each shot a deer with ten points weighing 180 and 190 pounds.

Dr. A. E. Bachhuber, of Mayville, Wisconsin has just arrived in our city. He has rented the office formerly occupied by Dr. W. W. Nolan where he will practice medicine and surgery.


1327 boats passed through the Wisconsin Avenue bridge during the navigation season just closed.

The office of the Kaukauna Times will be moved to its new home in the Mill Building on the corner of Main Avenue and 3rd street over the weekend. The portion of the building to be occupied by the Schiezewski Barber Shop is to be completed before the 15th of December.

Workmen this morning started the cleaning of Nicolet School grounds which will be used for an ice rink. The city rinks are provided for their use in preference to skating on the river.

The Kaukauna Fire Department was called to the farm home of John Van Laarhoven at Route 1, Sunday afternoon. The fire department managed to save the adjoining buildings but failed to save the Van Laarhoven home.

 






The Times was the recipient of a box of mistletoe this morning from Dr. H. B. Tanner from Eastland, Texas. Each year Dr. Tanner has been known to send such a gift to the Times for which we are very thankful. Dr. Tanner has always been as ardent supporter of the Kaukauna Times.

Nearly one hundred citizens, businessmen, teachers, students, football players and alumni attended the annual football banquet held last night at Hotel Kaukauna. The banquet was one of the most successful ever held here and was arranged for the by Superintendent J. F. Cavanaugh.
