Thinks Do You Remember When No. 1 was between 1926-1933

Clue, he thinks, to Year Mike Watson has in mind is in funeral home ads and the mention of Rainfall School, destroyed by tornado in 1933.
If you think you know the exact year, send your answer, along with the clues and reasons to support your opinion

Richard Raines writes:
I'm going to say sometime between 1926 and 1933, although I don't know an exact year. The newer of the funeral homes in Columbia opened in 1926 (I think forerunner of Grissom-Martin) and I think Stotts-Phelps-McQueary mentioned here opened as Coffey-Stotts funeral home, so that kind of gives an earlier date to the period. Rainfall Schoolhouse was destroyed by a tornado in 1933 (I don't know if it was ever rebuilt or not) since other schools such as Calhoun and Conover wouldn't have been too terribly far away (across land and old roads) --Richard Raines
