Drug Store Since 1873
Changes Ownership
After Legal Transfer
"Effective Monday, March 23,
Mr. Justin Bartos, Jr. assumed
active management pending legal
transfer of ownership of Brey-
mann's Drug Store, established in
our city in 1873," Mrs. Paul Brey-
mann announced to The Sticker.
Mr. Bartos is well-known in this
area having been born and reared
at Ammannsville. He is the son
of Mr. and Mrs. Justin Bartos Sr.
and was graduated from La
Grange High School. After com-
pleting service in the U. S. Army,
he enrolled at The University of
Texas School of Pharmacy and
received a Bachelor of Pharmacy
Degree in 1957.
In 1954 he was united in marri-
age to Miss Laura Bohlmann of
Schulenburg and following his
graduation, Mr, and Mrs. Barto3
returned to make their home here
in 1957. They have two children, a
son, Justin III, and a daughter
Jackie. Mrs. Bartos is on the
teaching staff of the Schulenburg
Public Schools.
A registered pharmacist, Mr.
Bartos is experienced in this field.
He assumes full ownership of
Breymann's Drug Store following
completion of legal proceedings
now in process, Mrs. Berymann
stated.
Schulenburg people will remem-
ber that this old, established busi-
ness was the first in our city and
three generations of Breymann's
have been at the helm over a pe-
riod of 86 years. Old-timers will
recall that the original drug store
site was located where the present
City Cleaners now operates on
Lyons Avenue. Later it was moved
to 523 North Main Street, its pre-
sent location.
"Plans are underway," Mr. Bar.
tos reported, "to modernize the
facilities to provide complete drug
and pharmacy service to our many
customers and friends."
Further details will be an-
nounced as they mature. Our com-
munity looks with,_ .interest as a
new name replaces a respected
pioneer sign which read: "Brey-
mann's Since 1873."
THE GRAND CHAMPION FAT CALF exhibited at
the FFA Show by Walter Hermes was purchased by
