Helvetia village center during a community event, circa
1910. The Helvetia Star Band is in the foreground, with the
horse-drawn "swing" or merry-go-round behind them to the left. Left
to right along the dirt main street is the Gottlieb Daetwyler home,
the Daetwyler cobbler shop and community store. In the background
and at right angles to the main street are, front to back, the
George Betz home, barn (with cupola) and grist mill. Photo by Aegerter. Helvetia Collection. PN 437-8 |
