Looking out Wardwell St at the W Rice Building.

Dr Rice of Smithville, and his father-in-law W A Collins, once manufactured "Rupture Cure." The building was originally a grade school
and was bought by Rice. It burned and was rebuilt in 1920. Lallies, a producer of thermal materials, also operated from this building

Just past Rice's to the right is a short street called Bond Streetwhich connects Wardwell street to North Park Street. Also, just after
the bowling alley to the left is Institute Street which connects Wardwell Street with North Main Street.
