ord sales of 500 million in
1860.
Mr.. Burrus, 81, says drug
store merchandising has swung
fun circle since he entered the
business. In 1923, he recalled,
stores practiced general mer-
chandising, but shifted to
specialization in succeeding
years.
For the most part, he said,
the days of separate candy
counters, camera departments
and other special sections are
over. The trend is to self -serv-
ice merchandise counterS-ex-
cepting, of course, for prescrip-
tion drugs.
"The public is better in
formed about products through
the press, radio and televi-
sion," Mr.. Burrus said. "Mer-
chandise is pre-sold today"
Changing Conditions a Problem
He said the big problem
confronting druggists now is
adjustment to changing con-
ditions.
THE comm munitieS are
changing, merchandising hab-
its are changing and the
nature of the stores is chang
ing" he observed.
Peoples has met the chal-
lenge, he said. by opening new
stores mostly in the suburbs) ,
remodeling others and closing
some marginal outlets. The
company expects to open 80
new self-service stores in 1860
and to close or relocate 15
others.
Normally" according to Mr..
BurruS, new stores are not
expected to produce profits the
first year. Therefore, the vol
ume Of sales developed in this
accelerated store expansion
program is not expected to
increase the net profit for 1860.
1t is our belief, however, that
we should continue to take
advantage of the excellent To-
cations available"

owned in Tennessee
chiefly for cotton, the town and
its environs are better known
here for Malcolm G. Gibbs,
late founder of Peoples Drug
Stores, Inc, and George B.
Burrus. president of the firm.
Neither man knew the other
in Woodland Mills. Mr.. Gibbs,
a generation older, had de-
parted for the East before Mr..
BurruS was born. But their
families were friends, and their
paths were destined to cross.
BY the time Mr.. Burrus
rea C h ID Washington after
graduation from high school,
the Peoples Drug Store chain
was flourishing concern.
Founded by Mr.. Gibbs in 1905,
it had grown from one to a
dozen stores in 1923, and was
clearly an organization with a
future.
Started at Soda Fountain
Armed with a letter from Mr..
Gibbs cousin, Mr.. Burrus got a
job all right, though not ex-
actly what he expected.
They put me behind a soda
fountain" Mr.. BurruS recalled.
Il was quite excited about the
job. 1t was certainly better
than plowing."
After finishing pharmacy
school in Georgia, he passed
the District Board of Pharma-
cy IN 1925 and rejoined the
Peoples organization. He then
won several promotions lead
ing to his selection in 1928 as
assistant to the general man
ager of a newly-purchased
Ohio chain.
Il worked in Ohio until
1888" he recalled, the year
I came down with tubercu-
loSis. 1t was a bad year all
the way around-it was the
middle of the depression. and
they didn't give me much of
a chance to live"
He outguessed the doctors,
however, and responded so we'll
to treatment at a Sanatorium
that he was back at work
within a year-thiS time as
advertising manager of the
chain in Washington.
President in 1850
In 1910, he was elected vice
president and was promoted to
the presidency in 1850, sue
ceeding T. N. Beavers, the Sec
ond president. Mr.. Burrus was
elected chairman of the board
in 1858.
During his term as president,
the firm has grown from l43
stores to 100. Peoples will open
