The small store on the west side of main street

Okay, you older Bearcats, what was the name of the small store that was on the west side of south Main Street that was south of Sherman’s Barber Shop? I think it was a clothing store of varied merchandise. I think the owners lived on north Davis Street. Anybody who lived during those “dark ages” days, remember? I remember JE Noblin Grocery, Sherman’s Barber Shop and ?????

Jim, in case he doesn't see you question. Tom is now in the Asheville, NC area to be near grands. Ted and Debbie live in Pearl. Ted retired some years ago as the director of the Pearl Band and they are still there as far as I know.
