Rt. Rev. Paul Rhode
The demonstration took place at Kaukauna
Wednesday evening for the Rt. Rev. Paul Rhode, the new Bishop of the
Green Bay Diocese when he arrived here on his way to Green Bay. The great crowd
of all the school children of both parishes carrying American flags and
shouting was the leading feature of this outpouring of people to greet their
new Bishop.
Manager Van Dyke of the Vaudette Theatre has
arranged with an official motion picture photographer to come to Kaukauna next
Tuesday and take reels of Motion pictures. Scenes will be shown of employees
coming from the local mills, children going to schools and from around town.
This film will be shown at the Vaudette when it is completed.
The South Kaukauna postoffice was moved Monday

New York – Like a ghost Andrew O’Brian appeared
to St. Peter’s church at mass. At the earlier mass prayers had been said for
him and no one doubted it was he who had been buried at the church cemetery
following the finding of his body in the Hudson River. His body was possibly
identified by the Chief of Police and Dr. Poucher, who knew O’Brian well. After
the excitement due to his appearance, he explained he had been working on a
farm. Now it must be determined who is buried next to his wife.
A new extension by the lighting system to
Little Chute is furnished by the Kaukauna electric power plant on Saturday. No
doubt the village board will soon place street lighting.
Kaukauna has a city football team now who
started Sunday to play and took their first game 48 to 0, away from Little
Chute.

Marinette – Peter Benedict, the father of
twenty-two children – all living – is dead, within a few days of his 100th

reunion which was to take place for the first time in fifty years.
Tons of carp are being taken from Little Lake
Butte des Morts under a law which allows the netting of rough fish. A shipment

good fishing eventually.
