Mr. C.F. Stonecipher has rented the stand between J.M. Vanghn’s and the city Café, where the old Samuel Ake shoe shop was formerly located, and is this week renovating the inside and preparing to open up a store. New shelves are being constructed and the inside and outside will be painted and put in good condition. He will carry a line of staple and fancy groceries, fruits, vegetables, soft drinks, ice cream and candy, cigars and tobacco. He expects to have everything in readiness and open for business sometime next week.
Mr. Stonecipher came here about two years ago from Boyer, W. Va., and was connected with the Cherokee Company until sometime ago when that company went into the hands of the receiver. He is well-known throughout this section and has many friends in the vicinity who bespeak for him success in his new business.
