More History (and lots of name dropping) :)
 

There's a lot of information in this picture. It is 10:30 in the morning. It is around Christmas time, yet the weather is mild. (No coats hanging up) They are serving hot chocolate and iced tea. The Peach Delight dessert is $1.15(?). Fresh, hot coffee is 30 cents (refills 10 cents) The coffee cup by the waitress belongs to the person taking the picture(?). The sign above reads: "Work like your job depends on it....it does"! Another sign reads: "Work Harder, Millions on Welfare depend on you"! (The juke box on the left is a treasure!)
