The Kingstree Drug Co. has just
completed the instalation of a new, g
large and very handsome soda foun- ~
tain. We are not afraid to assert
that there is not a town in the State
the size of .this that is better equip- ^
ped for quenching the thisst of its "
population than Kingstree is. In p
some respects, one in particular,
(which we prefer keeping secret) c<
Georgetown may have the advantage e<
of us, but when it comes to d-inks, ^
prohibition and the Volstead act do ^
not bother us at all. Artesian wells o:
all over the town and a fountain ser- ^
vice equal, if not superior to that of u
any small town in the State. The %
new equipment of the Kingstree Drug
Co. is not only a credit to the firm. ^
but speaks in no uncertain terms for *
the progress of the town. *
