Construction Work Reveals Part of Du Quoin's Past

</element><element id="paragraph-1" type="body"><![CDATA[Glass Recycling--Construction work above the windows at Emling & Hoffman, CPA this week revealed a large piece of downtown Du Quoin's past. A wind-damaged canvas awning has been covering up the original inlaid stain glass sign "Jones Drug Store." Harold Emling said, "Twenty-five years ago we covered up the leaded glass on our storefront. One window says Jones, the other window says Drug Store. Since our awning had to be taken down for replacement, we are able to get to the leaded glass signs to take them down. We plan on recycling the old glass and use it in our office.
