Drug Store
Sells Last
Nickel Coke
For the first time in the entire
history of the Cooleemee Drug
Company, there is no such thing
asanickleCoke.
The last five-cent Coca Cola
was sold Tuesday, September
30, just before dosing time. The
cigarette and soft drink tax
became effective on Wednes
day, October 1.
Prior to this increase, the
local drug store was one of the
very few remaining stores that
you were able to purchase a soft
drink for only five cents.
"I can never remember the
time when we didn't have a
nickle Coke here at the drug
store", says Dr. Hoyle.
Although prices had always
continued to rise, but until last
Wednesday they were still able
to sell the small site fountain
coke for five cents.
Well, now it's another "thing
of the past."
Everyone, with the exception
of those who registered miring

recreational programs.
Graham Madison, chairman
of the Board of Education,
accepted this donation on
behalf of the Davie County
Schools with the following
comments:
"We are greatly pleased by
this humanitarian gesture on
the part of Burlington
Industries. The two- hundred
thousand dollars from the
bond issue set aside for the
Cooieemee School district can
now be used entirely for
facilities; without this
donation, part of our budding
funds would have been
expended in the purchase of
additional acreage. We would
like to express our gratitude to
Burlington Industries for this
expression of their continuing
interests of the children of the
Davie County Schools."
