Of interest to all was the opening of  the  Burkhart Store on.;
Saturday.     While   they   admired.'
the store in its new streamlined |
appearance, many turned back in
memory to  what it used  to  be.
Being one of the first stores  in
Saline  it  is rich  in- history  and
has  grown along with  the community     through     the     changes
which the years have brought.
|    The store was built about 1871
; and  was   established   by   Charles
' F.  Burkhart,   grandfather  of  the
present  owners,  and a Mr. Ald-
; rich    carrying lines  of groceries,
[ crockery,    dry   goods,    hardware,
carpets, curtains, and taking farm
produce in exchange for merchandise.
G L.  Parsons  recalls  some  of
the stores of that period as his
grandfather had  a  similar store.
He   says   many   of   the   farmers
came to town only once in three •
or four months, then they drove j
the team on a wagon, often strug-!
gling through mud a, foot deep or j
more.    They bought provisions to
last for a spell because the trip
really meant effort.    Usually one
store handled all the-merchandise
any family would require even to
the family heating stove.
In 1888 Mr. Burkhart purchased the interest of Mr. Aldrich and
| for ten years conducted the place j
! alone.    He continued .the general |
j merchandise,  mcluding wallpaper, j
j gloves, fly nets,  etc.    In 1898 he
j sold   the   business   to   his    sons,
George and Fred. Mrs.. Burkhart
j helped  in   the  store   too   and  in-
: creased her circle of friends rap-
i idly. The brothers,  through their
i long    experience    in    the    store, j
! were familiar with  the wants of;
j the people and continued the pol- {
i icy of handling merchandise which
j these customers knew was reliable
j and  dishing  it  out with friendli-
; ness and accuracy.    The business
• continued to grow and the repu- '
' tation    of    the   firm    spread   for
miles around.      The brothers had
the   stairs   built   which   residents;
recall  at  the front of  the  store.'
On the second floor they had caH
pets, linoleum, wallpaper and cur-
tains. ■
Mrs. Gertrude Lutz, who joined'
the staff in 1913, has a photo-!
graph taken inside the store. It |
is interesting because it shows j
the manner of display. As was
customory then, coats, dresses and •
• suits were suspended from the,
1 ceiling, the cornice, any place!
! where they would be high enough.;
'. for customers to walk beneath j
i them.     The   notion   counter   has
j always been at the front. Plainly
j visible in the picture are the col-
■ lars, ruchmg and stays which
I were fastened in neckwear to hold
i it securely behind the ear. (A
I neckline in those days really
! reached the  neck and choked  it,
• too.) Counters were the same as
I they have been until the present
| remodeling. Along the east side
; premiums were displayed, shoes,
j shirt waists, yard goods, under-
! wear. The ribbon counter was
| large and well-filled   In fact, the
stock was so tremendous that
the space behind the counters was
filled almost to the ceiling. George
and Fred Burkhart and Mrs. Lutz
.are in the picture.
In 1927 Fred Burkhart bought
out his brother and became sole
! owner    of   the    store.    Groceries
! were discontinued,  as other lines
■ of   merchandise   -were   specialized
, in  and handled,   catering  to that
' particular line of trade, the Burkhart store gradually emerged from
; a general into a dry goods and
' men's wear store.
| Jean Carlene Burkhart laughing-
1 ly recalls the first sale she ever
| made. She was 13 years old and
1 sold a hat to a lady She was
' thrilled and has never forgotten
' the joy of the moment. Later
| she was allowed to try a sale on
| yard goods. She cut through four
i folds of cloth in trying to cut off
j the right length of sheeting, but
laughs oyer it now.
Mrs.  Beasley   also   recalls   her
first sale. She too was thrilled because she was allowed to wait on
i a customer.    It chanced the lady
! wanted to purchase some cheese-
' cloth.      As    most of    us    know,
that's one item which is hard to
handle and harder still to cut because of the coarse mesh, and the
points   of   the    scissors    getting
tangled  in  the  weave.    She  became entangled in the cloth and
the    purchaser     told     her     she
thought she could do a better job
j of   cutting   the  cloth  herself,   so
I she dropped the bolt on the coun-
! ter and told   the lady to help her-
| self and ran to the back of the
I store.     But   Papa Burkhart  had
