At the rear of the store is a balcony, its walls paneled in cherry and with decorative wrought iron railing in white with accents in gold and shrimp shades.
The balcony not only adds effectively to the store’s appearance but is used as the office area.
A simulated balcony on the wall above the front entrance gives balance and added beauty.
The walls of the store are in a soft green with cherry wood adding warmth in panel and valance effects,
Gift and China Dept.

Beyond this, at the rear of the store. the young men have constructed a model kitchen with cupboards and built-in appliances.
Refreshments will be served in this area during the three-day grand opening.
Opposite the kitchen area is the record department in which the sons-in-law of Mr and Mrs Spayth have installed attractive four-tiered record cases in cherry wood which were built by them, and which conveniently display a large stock of record albums.
The south area to the front of the store is devoted to the store’s paint and wallpaper department.
A paint blending machine has been installed which can produce 850 colors. A full line of Pratt and Lambert paints is carried in this department.
The ingenuity and skill of the three sons-in-law are displayed in this department, also, particularly: in the construction of a wallpaper display desk for the convenience of customers.
The desk has bins to! hold the thick wallpaper books.
Appliance Displays
Down the center and along a portion of the south wall is displayed a variety of appliances handled by Spayth’s. These include Hotpoint kitchen appliances and Zenith and Curtis-Mathes stereos, television sets and stereo-television combinations in many beautiful woods and styles.

Community Groups Pay Tribute to Them as Year’s Outstanding Sisters
The Elk’s ballroom was not large enough yesterday to hold everyone who wanted to pay homage to two sisters who are devoting their lives to make Findlay a better place in which to live.
But 254 friends, neighbors, and co-workers helped the Women’s division of the Findlay Chamber of Commerce honor Mrs. Otto Dewey Donnell and Mrs. Russell Lowell Heminger in an event which is becoming a tradition of this organization.
“Outstanding Woman of the Year” was this year changed to “Outstanding Sisters of the Year” as Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger received tribute for their unselfish service and untiring efforts in community betterment.
Club women of Findlay recently voted these two women as outstanding “Sisters of the Year” and the many who paid them homage yesterday showed that they were in accord with the wishes of the Club women of the community.
Dr. Aletha M. Herwig, a member of the Women’s division, was toastmistress for the day and wove through her remarks the expression of appreciation which the entire community feels for these two women.
Robert Dufford, this year’s “Outstanding Young Man of the Year” played the piano throughout the luncheon and Allen Dudley, an “Outstanding Man of the Year” two years ago, accompanied a trio of high school girls who delighted the audience with their harmony in three numbers which they sang through the dinner hour. They were Janet Ward, Hattie Gardner, and Jane Snyder, who call themselves the “Three Blue Notes.”
M S HAUSER, president of the Findlay Chamber of Commerce, spoke on behalf of the Chamber in extending sincere congratulations and appreciation to Findlay’s Outstanding Women of the Year.
“In honoring them and their long and generous service to the community you are also honoring the high type of citizenship for which the Women’s division stands.”
MS HAUSER, President, Findlay Chamber of CommerceHe praised the tremendous turnout in honor of Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger which, he said, “speaks far more eloquently than anything I could say for the high regard we hold for them and their achievements. Findlay is indeed most fortunate to count them as our neighbors and friends.”
Findlay’s Camp Fire
A highlight of the occasion was the presence of Mrs. Elizabeth Spear, national director of camping and former executive of the Findlay Camp Fire organization.
Mrs. Spear brought greetings and congratulation from the national board to Mrs Heminger, a member of the national board and its secretary, as well as Mrs. Donnell who have been actively interested in Camp Fire over the years. Mrs. Spear reminisced the years in which she was in Findlay and said that the event yesterday would be one of the highlights of the many pleasant memories of her associations in Findlay.
MAYOR CHESTER SMITH eloquently expressed his own sincere congratulations on behalf of the city thanked Mrs Donnell and Mrs. Heminger for the enrichment and influence of their contributions to Findlay and its citizens.
“Where a woman has successfully and creditably mothered administered and reared her children and served as a real genuine partner and companion to her husband, she has accomplished her true purpose in life.
Findlay mayor, Chester smith
“When we find those who have done this in a most successful fashion and possessed an added desire, capacity, and industry to give successfully of their time and talents to the improvement and advancement of those that build character and increase the quality of a community’s civic life, then, indeed, we have found two outstanding women.”Howard H. West in his remarks said “The radiance and inspiration of this delightful occasion is like the beam of the great searchlight piercing the darkness of the blackest night. All bout us we see great conflicts age because of the few who so wantonly disregard the principles of integrity, loyalty, patience, justice, and brotherly love. Always, however, we have returned again to those higher precepts of human conduct which have stood the test of time to bring us around.
“With spontaneous enthusiasm we give expression to the high esteem and affection we hold for Mrs. Otto Dewey Donnell and Mrs. Lowell Heminger who have been so signally honored by the Women’s division of the Findlay Chamber of Commerce.”
Speaking particularly of Donnell, Mr. West said, “She is genuinely modest as to her own attainments and generously appreciative of the achievements of others.
She would not wish me to recount here specific cases, but it is proper to say that her accomplishments as a good friend and neighbor and her undiminished initiative and patient understanding and generosity have been a great Inspiration to all who have been so fortunate to come under influence of her dynamic personality.”
He extolled her qualities as mother of three sons und added that her reverent and faithful service her church, her unstinting and unselfish service to her community, and her manifested concern to Improve the opportunities of youth “all attest your wise choice of Mrs. Donnell as ‘the woman of the year.'”
FOLLOWING Mr. West was Mrs. George W Trout, who has worked with both Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger In their various civic interests through the years. Mrs. Trout humorously and effectively gave several different incidents in her experience of working with them. She recounted the different accomplishments of both Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger and added that a recognition luncheon does not necessarily mean that their value has just been discovered, but rather that it is time to express appreciation of it.
Judson Palmer Home
The Reverend Donald W Cryer combined humor with philosophy in his remarks. Mr. Cryer is pastor of First Methodist church with which Mrs. Heminger is prominently identified. “These two women,’ he said, “are living examples of the law of finding happiness by giving it..of finding happiness by serving more than being served.”
He particularly pointed out the many contributions Mrs. Heminger has made to the community and read a letter from Harley A. Watkins, Toledo attorney and president, Board of Trustees of the Judson Palmer Home, which Mrs. Heminger is Vice-President.
He asked that hearty congratulations and best wishes be extended to both Mrs. Heminger and Mrs Donnell on “this happy occasion and highly complimented Mrs. Heminger for her work in the organization, building, and operation of the Judson Palmer Home over the past 10 years.
Mr. Cryer said that “No community of our size anywhere in the United States has a better Camp Fire program than does Findlay. No small reason for this, in my opinion,” said Mr. Cryer, “is that for years Mrs. Heminger has been behind the program and in addition related to it in the national level.” Poetically, he pointed out that flowers should be given to the living and complimented the women’s division on making this occasion possible.
DR. HERWIG, a very able toastmistress, interspersed the talks with humor and appropriate remarks. Mrs. Wilmer Bayer, retiring president, introduced the Reverend Russell Gregg Bisnett, of First Presbyterian who gave the invocation. Mrs O D Donnell is an active member of the church.
Mrs. Bayer presented the gifts to Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger, as remembrances of the occasion.

Committees in charge of the event yesterday included: Bess Shreve, general chairman; Mrs. W G Coldren, favors; Bonita Moyer and Mrs. John Longsberry, tickets; decorations, Mrs. H H Chadbourne and Mrs. Raymond Bladow; program, Mrs. KG Thomas and Mrs. Glenn Dennis.
Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger both responded graciously to the acclamation of the group. Mrs. Donnell expressed, in an effective way, her appreciation of the occasion and her love for the community which she her sister have served so faithfully.
Her genuine sincerity deeply affected the audience.
Mrs Heminger injected a humorous note in her response closing it with her code of living, which, she said, is the Campfire Code—
“be trustworthy, glorify work, seek beauty, hold onto health, be happy, pursue knowledge, worship God and give service.”
CAMPFIRE CODE and Mrs Heminger’s code of livingSharing the enjoyment of occasion with Mrs. Donnell and Mrs. Heminger were Mrs.Donnell’s husband, Otto Dewy Donnell, her son, John R. Donnell, Mrs. Donnell and their daughter; Ann.
Mrs. Heminger’s husband R L Heminger, and her sons Harold Heminger and Mrs. Heminger, and Edwin Heminger.

If you want to read, I might suggest a good book, perhaps Melville. That’s why they call it, the dummy copy. This, of course, is not the real copy for this entry. Rest assured, the words will expand the concept. With clarity. Conviction. And a little wit.
In today’s competitive market environment, the body copy of your entry must lead the reader through a series of disarmingly simple thoughts.
