Munro has had its face-lifting c'om+ple- ted, It is the first store in this village to have the New Leak", The spacious size feet .by nine feet windows on each side'of the new door gives a new ap- pearance to the store and the modern slant canopy provides shade from the hat afternoon's sun,- This ten;Tihis store has been in the Munro name since 1888. 'The late D. E, Munro father of the present 'owner, carne to Auburn about 1884. He ,bought a store from a Mr. Caldwell at the bottom of the village hill. Then azi evaporator was built there after rthe store was demolished by fire. The store also con- tained the post office for the village (ithen known as Man- chester), In 1888 he ,bought the pres- ent tstare frown William Downs, who had remodelled` the build- ing and used part of it as a dveel15•ng. This had been the seemed store in the village, built in 1865, by James Suther- land. A few years later he sold this store and business to Jos- eph Habkirk, who later sold to Mr, Downs. After D. E. Munro passed away, his wife carried on the business and post 'office until her death in 1928, and the post office was moved to its present location. Her son, Ralph, .took over the business modernizing and enlarging the store space, by using the dwel- ling attached.
