That's about the way it is at 126 South Main Street where Mary Lou Beard and six or seven other employees keep a steady stream of customers dressed in quite good taste, and it's all done with cheerfulness, courtesy, and a kind of blithe friendliness. It started back in June 1921, when the late Miss Patty Watkins, Dean of Students at Flora Mac Donald, walked into the newly refurnished Graham and Company and flatly stated to Ernest Graham that he'd never get anywhere trying to sell women's clothes until he got someone in there who knew some thing about them. Of course, she just happened to have someone in mind - a student at Flora MacDonald ? who had shown a special aptitude for design, style, and dressmaking -- and she just happened to mention the name Mary Lou Beard to Mr. Graham. Miss Beard has proven to at least two generations of Red Springs' best dressed ladies that she does, indeed, know about women's wear. As the employee who has been longest in service of Red Springs' oldest store. Miss Beard exercises a kind of benign dictatorship over everyone else at Graham's, up to and including President-Manager G. Robert Graham. It was Bobby Graham's father, the late Ernest Graham, Sr., to whom Miss Wat kins addressed her remark back in 1921. Shopping at Graham's has be come a tradition throughout this area of North Carolina and upper South Carolina. The store is stocked with brand-name wearing apparel for the entire family, comparable to that found in the best department stores of our larger metropolitan areas. In 1967 the Highland Fling was opened in an adjoining shop with a stock of clothes and accessories aimed at the teen-age girl and younger ladies. An amazing variety of styles for the "now generation" may be ogled enviously or even critically by the more traditional Graham-type customer. But it serves well as notice to all that Red Springs, even at its' traditional best, has something in the newest style for tomorrow's great lady. To wish for Mary Lou Beard and her co-workers many more years of happy, neighborly service would seem to be trite and pointless, but it also would be wishing for Red Springs a long continuation of an association that is, in truth, a happy one.
