Appleton, MinnesotaLearn more at...

www.beyondtheyellowribbon.org

Appleton, Minnesota is the only city in the world to have all of its streets and avenues named after its fallen veterans. With the help of Appleton businesses and referencing the book Home of Honored Veterans, Tidbits of the Lake Area would like to introduce you to one of these Honored Soldiers each week.

Louisiana, Camp Roberts, California and Camp Meade, Maryland. He was then sent overseas to Africa and later to Italy. On September 11, 1944, Elmer died in the defense of his country as the result of wounds received in action in Italy. Left to mourn his death at that time were his parents, one sister, Ellen (Mrs. Frank Bonk) and one brother, Betrand. Memorial services for Pfc. Elmer Petrick were conducted at the Appleton Armory on Sunday, October 15, 1944, at 2:30 pm with Rev. Adolph Killian in charge of the service. Elmer was buried in St. John Lutheran Cemetery in Fairfield Township, Swift County, Minnesota.

Petrick Street is located on the west side of Appleton, between Paul and Podoll Streets.

• Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) is the only U.S. president who was also a licensed bar-tender. He was co-owner of Berry and Lincoln, a saloon in Springfield, Illinois.

• The only president to be unanimously elected was George Washington (1732-1799). He also refused to accept his presidential salary, which was $25,000 a year.

• Grover Cleveland was the only president in history to hold the job of a hangman. He was once the sheriff of Erie County, New York, and twice had to spring the trap at a hanging.

• The “S” in Harry S Truman doesn’t stand for anything; therefore, there is no period after his middle initial.

• Lincoln Logs are named after Abraham Lincoln and the log cabin where he was born. John Lloyd Wright, son of famous architect Francis Lloyd Wright, invented them.

• James Abram Garfield (1831-1881) is the first president to ever talk on the phone. When he spoke to Alexander Graham Bell, who was at the other end 13 miles away, he said: “Please speak a little more slowly.”

• Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) was the first president to be inaugurated in Washington, D.C.

• After President Bush Sr. vomited on the Japanese Prime Minister, a new word entered the Japanese language. Bushusuru means “to do the Bush thing,” or to publicly vomit.

• The term “O.K.” derives from President Martin Van Buren (1782-1862) who was known as “Old Kinderhook” because he was raised in Kinderhook, New York. “O.K.” clubs were created to support Van Buren’s campaigns.

• John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s (1917-1963) famous inaugural line “Ask not what you your coun-try can do for you; ask what you can do for your country” echoes similar directives made by many others, including Cicero, Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. and President Warren G. Harding, who told the 1916 Republican convention: “We must have a citizenship less concerned about what the government can do for it, and more anxious about what it can do for the nation.”

• Martin Van Buren was the first to be a United States citi-zen. All previous presidents were born British subjects.

• Six presidents were named James: Madison, Monroe, Polk, Buchanan, Garfield, and Carter.k

• President Dwight David Eisenhower (1890-1969) was the only president to serve in both WWI and WWII.
