  FORMER KAUKAUNA COUPLE IS DIVORCED IN RACINE Kaukauna — Social circles in Ra- rine were given a surprise list week when it was announced that Ethel Claire Foster, 30, had been granted a divorce from Dr. Argo M. Foster, well known physician in Racine, on the grounds of cruel treatment. Dr. Foster formerly was a resident of Kaukauna. The decree was granted in Racine municipal court last Wednesday after Mrs. Foster had told of the mistreat- ment received from her husband. She charged he had attacked her on dif- ferent occasions, sometimes in the presence of women's rooms. The wife said her husband had an- nnnual net income of more than $5, 000 a year and that he owns property in Racine and other places to a value of more than $16,000. Mrs. Foster by agreement, received $3,1OO in lieu of alimony. The couple was married in Chicago, April 10, 1915. Page Six APPLETON POST-CRESCENT Monday Evening, December 15, 1924
