A Memorial to James Austin McClure

 
 
This is a Memorial to my grandfather James Austin McClure. This was Respectfully submitted on the 27th day of May, 1955. The Memorial was made up by; Marlin S. Casey, T. M. Lillard, Harry Comery, John E. DuMars and Robert L. Webb, Chairman. I never met him, I did go to McClure School named after him from 1st - 3rd grades.  
 
I tried to you load to Facebook and the images did not post. He was a part of Topeka History. Maybe more significant to me, yet I hope you enjoy the read. Henry Austin McClure

It creates an immediate "fresh food" impression rather than hidden back-of-house prep. Beverage and Cold Sections : Large beverage coolers, extensive soft drink and coffee fountains, and nitro/bean-to-cup options are prominent. Merchandise and Essentials : Well-stocked shelves for snacks, travel items, camping gear, beer/wine (where allowed), and convenience goods. The layout flows logically from food → drinks → general merchandise. Seating : Indoor seating areas (tables/chairs) plus outdoor picnic/se...
