Here weary passengers could wash off the dust of the road aud rest before a warm fire amid friendly company. Sumptuous meals were served family style and a night's lodgings could be had.

The Drive-Inn Of Today has completely changed. A greater variety of foods can be prepared and served to your order. Anything from soup to steaks. Accommodations in clean, separate rooms are always available. The only ingredient that has not changed thru the years is the friendly atmosphere and the desire to please.

That will always prevail. SAUNDERS DRIVE-INN Those Good Old General Have long ago faded out of existence. Not only did they handle almost ev- erything imaginable but they were usually the gossip cen- ter of the community. While the housewife did the weekly family shopping the men folks argued politics or listened to the sage advise of the cracker barrel phil- osophies. Today's Counterpart Is Your Home- Owned Grocery Stores course lots of things are different the cracker barrel and the checker board have disappeared We handle many, many more articles than the old timers and in a much more sanitary and efficient way.

Probably the only ingredient that will never change is the constant desire to serve our commuity with the best products available at every day low prices. MANNING MARKET They Had tor Trouble Back in the days of the horse and carriage you never had to worry about a break-down or a tune-up. But you did have to worry about whether the horse was in the mood to travel at the speed and for the distance you wanted.

That's where we come in. Since 1949 we've been keeping automobiles in repair in Manning. Magnetos, carburetors, electrical systems, tuneups and major repairs. We can handle any motor problems right in our shop. We're at your service for any work your car might need to keep you on the road and running with trouble-free performance.
