1911-??: While other localities in Illinois were selling loaves of bread for 6 cents, the Table Grocery advertised bread at 3 loaves for ten cents -"cheaper than it could be baked." Additionally the loaves were "wrapped in parchment paper and delivered to the customer without being exposed to air or handled by any person." The store was one of the first in the city to begin a new way of shopping. Rather than have the shop owner gather all the items on the housewife's list from behind the counter, groceries were displayed on tables around the store allowing the customers to choose items themselves. Fresh fish were received on Thursday and orders were taken for Friday delivery. Pineapples were sold by the crate or the dozen for canning purposes.On the second floor were the Deeters Boarding House and the office of Lutes and Berry, Building Contractors who built the building.

A few years later Burke Childress purchased the interest of Charles Ratcliff. The company moved from the 11th St. location, after they erected the large white building on State Street.
