Ross Schryver still works in a drug store. shave were favorites of the local paupers. "There was a cadre of people who walked Front Street, and they were a constant problem. It was always a question of judgement," he says about selling the product. One man came into the store saying that his horse needed the substance. However, the story seemed suspicious as there was no horse within sight of the pharmacy. As times changed, the numher of pharmacies on Front Street gradually decreased. During the store's early days "people, to a greater extent, dealt with the same merchant." Now it is more a matter of convenience and there are only two pharmacies on Front Street. Schryver's closed its doors the same day as McKeown's Drug Store. "Business was changing. Front Street was declining even then," he says. Today, Schryver works one day a week at Kelly's Drugs on Bridge Street East.
