A. Simmons drug store. Skidding on the pavement the driver was unable to make the right hand turn and the transport hit the centre window of the store an caved it in before coming to a stop. What prevented it from going on through the building and out the back remains a mystery. The transport, it is said, had a ten ton load and when matter weighing that much gets in motion, there is no telling where it will stop. It is thought that the step of about eight inches at the store entrance proved too much for the monster and saved the interior of the store from demolition. The damage to the store front will amount to a considerable sum. Three plate glass windows and a plate glass door were smashed to smithereens. The frame work of the front was knocked out of place and badly wrecked. Goods in the windows and goods and fixtures in the store back of the push were badly damaged also. Mr. William Atkinson was called in and effected temporary repairs to the store front.

Coal oil was used for cooking in the boats and cottages at this time. The coal oil drum was in the shed behind the store and it cost 19 cents an Imperial gallon. One had to be very careful when filling American cans because they were smaller and sometimes you had ONE BIG MESS! The store also sold wieners and baloney at 39 cents a pound. Mayme provided provisions for the campers and yachtsmen, sold stamps and took campers' news for The Squ'iler. It was a busy little place, so, when William Atkinson had to have one leg amputated in later years, it seemed the natural place for him to 'hold court'. He sat to the left of the door where he would be out of the way, yet as accessible as possible. Everyone knew him and he greeted the campers as they entered the store. He sat, looking quite comfortable, in a large rocking chair.
