Santa exits (or is he entering) an outhouse at the Glenn Whitten home, 500 Conley Ave.
He said his sister saw the inflatable decoration for sale and sent it to the Whittens to add to their collection of inflatables which have been placed along a fence.
The blown-up Santa even opens and closes the door. Note the toilet paper is the outside...now that would be inconvenient. (Monty Siekerman photo)
Once upon a time in Ada
Things you didn’t know about your own hometown
By Lee Crouse [email protected]
April 1916 - “Cherry Cheer,” a new soft drink was being bottled here by Marty & Jones. In April 1916 J.A. Jones and A.G. Marty appeared before the Ada council asking for improvement of the alley past Friedly’s livery barn, for approach of trucks to a proposed soft-drink bottling business. Friedly’s barn was located east of the First National Bank in East Buckeye Avenue.
