A widow of A. E. Schumacher, has taken over his position in the store and has charge of the second floor merchandise. Grand Old Man of the store is Oscar Renner, 74, Who this year marks his 60th year as a department store merchant. He first started working in the store which was to become the SQR store in 1892. A half-hour of chatting with him will elicit more information about Anaheim and its progress through the 20th century than can be found in all the books of the library. He recalls that a department store then carried no ready-to-wear items. Women bought yardage, then went home to make their own clothes, and household furnishings, including curtains, rugs, table cloths and comforters. Women didn't work in stores then in Anaheim and typewriters hadn't arrived yet. Working conditions would chill the blood of a present-day clerk: More hours were 7 a.m., to 8:30 and 9:30 p.m., and the store stayed open half-time victims to the 1929 according to Renner.

Center St. Anaheim OPS to Relieve Merchants of Some Paper Work A move to relieve retail merchants of certain "paper work" has been announced by the Office of Price Stabilization. William C. Moeser, director of the San Diego district OPS, said merchants are now excused from reporting current initial percentage markups or gross margin higher than those for the base period. The price agency is employing other methods, such as use of reliable trade sources, to obtain information which would be contained in the current reports. Moeser explained. The change is contained in Amendment 15 to Ceiling Price Regulation 7 and is effective today.
