Thanks to Sam Talley who tells this story: "The store was located across the Heron St. Bridge on the way out of town. When I was a little kid my grandfather George Bowen took me to the Goodwill to get a bicycle -- cost $2. I got two bottles of paint from the SH Kress store for 10 cents each and a pair of handle bar grips for 10 cents. When I got my bike fixed up it was the nicest one in Cosmopolis, as far as I was concerned. Unlike other kids whose parents bought them new Schwinns only to see them left laying around in the yard at night, I put mine in the wood shed out of the rain. It was a good lesson."
