Rahr Appliance Buys Property of Lumber Firm
The Rahr company, which now employs 25 persons, was founded by Paul Rahr in
1935 as the Rahr Electric Appliance Company and located at 906 Jay street.
The business primarily was radio sales and repair. In 1938 the Rahr Appliance
Company was organized when Claude P. Allie, now president of the company, joined
the firm as vice-president…The company took on electrical contracting, roofing,
insulation, sheet meal, heating and other types of home improvement. The
following year it was decided to enter the wholesale electrical supply, appliance
and home improvement material field. The new branch was located at Ninth and
Commercial street and operated the Rahr Supply Company.
In November, 1940, the retail store was moved to the Vogelsang building at
Eighth and Franklin streets and many additional items added, including paints,
furniture, rugs, and a gift shop. Paul Rahr retired from the company the same
year, his stock being purchased by Mr. Allie and Mr. Ziesler…

WAGNERS
Married By Wagner
Perhaps the family-as an institution-isn't what it used to be but nobody can
say that the Wagner clan doesn't stick together.
Take, for instance, the wedding at Meeme yesterday of Miss Katherine Mary
Wagner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John P. Wagner of Newton, to Erwin Wagner,
son of Mr. and Mrs. John N. Wagner, Cleveland route.
But that's not all. The Wagners were out in a body. Maid of honor was Melanie
Wagner, George Wagner, Violet Wagner, Edwin Wagner and Alfred Wagner were
attendants.
The minister who performed the service was The Rev. Edward Wagner, of course.
The music-was it Richard Wagner's? But then it must have been.
