This Later became the Silver Fox sometime in the sixties. It featured live entertainment in the form of a one man band named "Wild Bill." Also country singers Shorty Warren and Dottie West appeared there. It then became the Seven Seas, featuring the best seafood around. Brian Lloyd and several partners turned it into the Spruce Street Grill for several years before it became an Asian Restaurant for a brief time. Its latest incarnation is Varka.</p> When the Community Lunch, run by the Milano/Muti family closed on Main Street, they opened more upscale Milano’s.

Everybody knew Stanley Kielch. Prior to that, he had been a carrier on a mounted route (using cars, not horses.) The even older Post Office was across the street in the Ststion Plaza, though it wasn't called that back then.</p> My father worked there (with Mr. Nonnamacher)as a clerk.
