If you were born before 1994 you probably remember
The Sun Theatre
You would have to be born before 1930 to remember the silent films that were shown there.
Harold Kortes, a Greenville, Michigan native, was bitten by the movie bug and searched throughout Michigan to find a suitable location for his new movie theater. He settled on Plainwell, Michigan. The theater was constructed and opened on April 26, 1927 showing its first silent film, “Sweet Rosie O’Grady.” Harold’s wife, Edna, who was an accomplished pianist, accompanied all of the silent films. The theater featured a live vaudeville act in 1927 but in March 1930 showed its last silent movie. The theater was remodeled three times, in 1937, in 1940 and in 1965. In 1929 at Christmastime, the Kortes had Christmas parties for children under 12 and continued until the Christmas of 1993, their final year. Harold’s son, Stacey, was discharged from the military service in 1945 and joined his father in the movie business. In 1948 Stacey and his wife, Lucille, began managing the Theater on a full-time basis. Four generations were involved in the operation of the theater: Harold and Edna Kortes, Stacey and Lucille Kortes along with their two girls Sharon and Barb. At the time of the closing, grandsons Chris and Nathan Bevins were working for their grandparents. For 67 years the theater was in operation until the “Sun Set” on June 12, 1994.

Harding's Friendly Markets Celebrate 70 Years
COMMUNITY SHOPPERS GUIDE...OTSEGO, MI 49078...September 20, 2014....Phone 694-9431
"Harding's customers deserve the best service possible provided by friendly employees." This is still the philosophy of the well-known local grocery store that insists on carrying out your groceries. Melvin R. Harding was the founder of Harding’s Friendly Markets. He opened the first Harding’s Market in downtown Parchment, Michigan in 1944. The first Harding’s Friendly Market, though modest by today’s standards (approximately 7,500 square feet), proved to be the beginning of a chain of stores now

Hours: 9am-6pm M-F, 9am-12noon Sat.
The first Harding’s Friendly Market in downtown Plainwell serving Southwest Michigan and Northern Indiana. Some of the early pioneers in the development of Harding’s Friendly Markets include Herb Corum, Roscoe Hill, Dutch Spierling, Millie Ponds, Dave Kauffman and Lee Miller; many of these names are recognizable
due to the fact that their sons, daughters and grandchildren are still involved in the ownership and operation today. On February 5, 1948, Melvin Harding and Roscoe Hill formed Harding and Hill, Inc. and opened a store in downtown Plainwell. In 1950 the Corporation added a second store in downtown Otsego. The store was remod-
eled many times over the ensuing years. In July of 1993, a new 34,666 square foot replacement store was constructed in downtown Otsego. The store underwent an expansion in 1999 to its current size of 38,000 square feet. Today there are currently 28 Harding’s Friendly Markets, owned by various families.

“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.” ~ Dr. Seuss
www.communityshoppersguide.net
Faith &Hope
“Come, follow me …” – Mark 1:17 Jesus has the amazing ability to love people into following Him. • A despised tax collector • A zealot • A doubter • A traitor Consider Simon, son of Jonah: He saw himself as sand; Jesus saw him as Peter, the rock (Matthew 16:18) Consider the testimony of Apostle Paul: He saw himself as persecutor of Christians; Jesus saw him as a great apostle to the Gentiles “I am deeply grateful to Jesus Christ (to whom I owe all that I have accomplished) for trusting me enough to appoint me His minister, despite the fact that I had previously blasphemed His name, persecuted His Church, and damaged His cause …” (I Timothy l:1215, Phillips) Just when we think we committed a great sin, He is there to offer forgiveness. Just when we think we have reached our limit, He is there to offer His help. Just when we are about to give up; He is there believing in us and expecting the best from us. What a Savior! With Jesus Christ, you can be more than what you think you can be. Prayer: Dear Lord, with your help, I can be a “morethan” disciple … more than I thought I could be. Amen. Please join us for worship this Sunday in a church where Jesus’ love is lived.
