Celebrates 41st Birthday of the finest stores in southern California. In 1913, the S. Q. R. Store moved to larger quarters at the southwest corner of Center and Los Angeles streets where McCoy Cut Rate Drug company is at present and brought to the buying public large stock of merchandise. I.e earlier days, goods were purchased twice a year, the buyer going to market for each two season's stock, thus taking care of the four seasons of the year, a decide contrast to the buying methods of the present time. Large shipments came by freight twice a year from eastern markets, Chicago and St. Louis, the buyers going to the markets and selecting the merchandise for their clientele. German and Spanish languages were a required necessity of the young merchant in the early days in this city in order to accommodate the patrons of the store and both Mr. Schumacher and Mr. Renner became very proficient in these tongues. Mr. Schumacher came to Anaheim in 1887 with his family from Texas and started working in a store when he was fourteen years of age. Mr. Renner also came to Anaheim in 1887 with his family from Michigan and began his career as a salesman at the tender age of fourteen years, same as Mr. Schumacher. Memories of these two gentlemen hark back to the "gay nineties" and many are the tales they can tell of the "mauve decade." Watching the city grow from a village of 1200 population to its present size has been one of the highlights in the lives of each of these gentlemen.
