July 17, 1939, Menasha Record
I couldn't help but laugh at the headline and knew the writer of this piece was having his (or her) fun, too. Though I'm sure the soon-to-be ex-missus didn't find this that funny when she saw it in the newspaper, and she certainly must have hated it even more when the news of the day would give out your entire street address while making light of your situation. Today this would be buried in the official notices of the paper if listed at all and you can be sure there'd be no other address info given.
(The answer to the question yesterday was Hotel Menasha.)
