JIM: The lineage of a grocery store (1903-1918) 'The lineage of a grocery store on the Square, from founding to demise, 1903-1918.' The transitions of a 15 year enterprise, which persevered through numerous ownerships, partnerships, and changes of venue, all around the Square. Should, in spite of author's acute Steerupaphobia and anti-seditiousness, some be incited to comment please do so. For the many who only read CM for JIM'S pieces, a comment would be a tiny expected courtesy for this epic essay. - ED WAGGENER With acknowledgment and grateful gratitude to JIM's acknowledgement of a leading but small fraction of his vast worldwide and polyuniversal cheering section: Ann C., Mike W. and John R. By JIM of The Great White North The lineage of a grocery store on the Square, from founding to demise, 1903-1918 (including an addendum, an abundance of asides, and numerous names dropped, all at whim of the compiler, but carefully bowdlerized of shootings and very nearly all other salacious shenanigans in order not to steer up the general populace and disturb the domestic tranquility of the Auld Sod) A hundred or so years ago, the names of businesses and the proprietors thereof oft-times changed with amazing frequency. Such was the case of a grocery store that opened on the square in the summer of 1903 and closed its doors forever in the spring of 1918 - with many a twist and turn in between, including no fewer than eight different names and nine sole or co-owners, six of whom had departed Adair County by 1920. Jackman's Store Toward the latter part of July 1903, a three-line ad appeared in a couple of editions of the Adair County News: "I have a complete line of groceries [at] the lowest cash price. Give me a call. Frank Jackman." Frank had been in business in Columbia as a jeweler since the late 1890s, most likely in the same location, before adding a line of groceries.

(Ad) Yard Sale Season is here - It's Extra Cash Time! The cold weather is beginning to break. And Yard Sales are showing up again. There are two listings this morning. One is inside. So weather isn't a factor - or maybe it's working in the hosts favor. With CM's weather, it's easier than ever to plan whether to take advantage of the bad weather with an indoor Yard Sale, or take advantage of the good weather with one outside. Yard Sales are free for individuals in the 7-County CM Area, when Street & Number is included for the venue. Otherwise, the cost is very low for businesses and those who prefer not to include the information. For What's FREE and What's PAID, see Rates & Terms And, for those who want to have their Yard Sale stand out from all the rest, CM Front Page Hotspots can boost traffic with $1/hour hotspots. (Minimums apply). 2013-02-12 06:29:55 | Comments | Printable version
