June 29

1933: "Almost took another trip to Green Lake this afternoon but it rained and I'm not feeling  so extra. Helped Jim Hemmer with our boy scout card party in the evening at Koplitz Hall. We had a good attendance and cleared 20 dollars. I played 500 with Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Edwin and Mrs. Emil Ristow. Francis Genal and Angie Boettcher are married at St. Vincent's this morning." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1942: "Turns out to be a rather hot day, temperature about 90°. Officers and Stockholders of Mueller Potter are voted substantial increases in salary because of heavy increase in business the first six months of the year."  [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1949: "Berndt Bros. begin digging at the cottage for our new sanitary project and expect to be thru in two days. Lawrence Kinateder is back for another day. Joe & Annie Weisheipl and Aunt Mary spend the night with us. Aunt Mary is happy to be with us."  [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
