With the greatest respect to our resident Local History Guru are you sure it was "bob olts" or "Holts" ? Have been in the store umpteen times as a boy and was fascinated with the cash system. Money was placed in a container, a handle or something was pulled and "Woosh" -- away shot the container to the cashiers office and then back again with the change.
However, the point I wanted to make was that I remember the store being referred to as "Bob `owts" ( anything).
