They also had a gas pump in front of the store. The children of George and Mayme also helped out in the store. They also had a dog, Sport, who also was the mascotte of the store. In bad times, the customers could pay with strawberrys, eggs or potatoes. During the depression George helped a lot of people, some times people came in crying that they had no money to buy food, and these people never left empty-handed. They got potatoes, macaroni, sugar etc. George also gave out loans, and often they weren't paid back. During prohibition he sold sugar to the bootleggers, and made good money with it. George's sons ran the store later, until approx.1959.
