The Store had never received a restaurant license and didnt comply with the requirements in the way of rest rooms as well as in minor ways. Mr. Wheaton had gone to California and Mrs, Wheaton wanted to join him so didn't want to meet the re quirements. The Lexington water supply is short but when the new well is completed there should be sufficient water so that more people may be served. At present, they are not allowed to add more users. They may resort to area irrigating so that the pressure may be maintain ed. Mayor Gene Orwick said "that shop was the best thing that ever happened to Lexin ton " He is hoping that someone else will see the need and re-open the store.
