there were several owners of this drug store. I rember the last one was Bachman and Kuml (spelling?) We used to go down there before sunday school at First Presbyiterian
church, and in later years I used to go in there for some really good sandwiches at noon. You could still get flavored cokes there. I also remeber the 4 Watts brothers each a drug store in different parts of town Only one left now run by the son of the owner

Cherry Cokes after church! Just told my daughter about that when I was in town 2 weeks ago. I think they were 12 cents.
