Before it was
Circle C Living & Development

Corder's Drug Store operated at this location in 1909 under the direction of Dr. Claude Shaffer until he retired in 1932. In 1916 the drugstore and saloon a few doors down were burned out in the fire that swept the west side of the Lexington Square, and was re-built. Mr. Fred Morris took over the the store c. 1940s, until Clifton & Myrle Perry purchased the drug store from his son, Ted in the 1970s.

From 1968 to 1974 Corder's Drug Store was owned by Clifton & Myrle Perry. The Perrys bought it from Mr. Fred Morris’ son, Ted Morris. Corder's Drug Store sold all kinds of over-the-counter meds, gifts, veterinary supplies, magazines, and ammunition. A favorite highlight of the store was hand-dipped Bluebell Ice Cream for 5 cents a dip served from a long marble soda fountain. Nancy's best friend, and Alph's first cousin, the late Dorothy Ann (Perry) Spence would run the store during the day, and then Myrle and Clifton would come about 4:00 to man the store.
