A. STEFFAN BECAME OWNER OF JEWELRY STORE ON JANUARY 2 A personable young couple, Mr. and Mrs. Harold A. Steffan, on Wednesday, January 2, took over the jewelry store in West McHenry formerly owned by A. E. Nye, renaming the business the H. A. Steffan Jewelry, Radio and Music store.

The jewelry business is not new to Mr. Steffan, for he has been in this line of work for the past sixteen years. He has been associated with the Elgin National Watch company and also with several jewelry stores in the west..
