A deal was closed this week by Thomas Horton and Farrell Burns with H. Tucker, for the rental of the room now occupied by the Kroger Grocery and Baking Co., for a drug store. As soon as Kroger vacates, the building will be redecorated and made ready for the new occupants.

Mr. Burns is a graduate of the St. Louis School of Pharmacy and has been following his profession in St. Louis for several years. Both men are well known in our community and the News wishes them success in their new business venture.
