[TWO BUSINESS HOUSES EXCHANGE LOCATIONS:
DERRY & PARMAN.]
Arkansas City Traveler, Monday, August 28, 1922.
The Luther Parman furniture store and H.
A. Derry’s bakery, located at 107 and 109 South Summit Street, respectively,
are having an unusual moving experience in that they are switching locations.
This comes about by virtue of the fact
that Luther Parman owns the building that has been occupied by the Derry
Bakery, and desired to move into his own building.
This change will also cause a transfer of
Labor Hall, which has been over the Derry Bakery in the Parman building, and
which will be moved to the rooms over Derry’s new location. The room heretofore
used by the labor people as an auditorium will be used by Mr. Parman to assist
in accommodating his furniture stock, while the front part of the second floor
will be occupied by George W. Jones, with his tailor shop.
This room will be newly decorated. It is
a large commodious room; and in addition to being used by Mr. Jones, will also
be used by the A. C. Symphony orchestra and municipal band as a rehearsal room,
thus solving the problem of a suitable practice place for the band and
orchestra.
All parties affected in these
transactions will be comfortably installed in their respective quarters within
a few days.
[GEORGE W. JONES MOVES ACROSS THE HALL.]
Arkansas City Traveler, Tuesday, September 12, 1922.
George W. Jones has moved his tailoring
shop across the hall from his former location, now occupying the large front
room over the Parman furniture store, 109 South Summit Street. This is a
commodious room and will be newly papered and painted and new linoleum put on
the floor. It will also be used by Mr. Jones as a rehearsal room for his
symphony orchestra and band. In connection with the room will be a rest room
with toilet facilities.
“You can tell ‘em I am tickled to death,”
said Director Jones today. “This will make the largest rehearsal room I have
had for the orchestra. There is plenty of room, plenty of light, and I will
have plenty of music, and plenty of musicians.”
