*‘I hope the business will
grow,”’ said Mr. Fortney,

everyone shops locally.
That's the way it should
be.’
Ken Fortney has lived
here for several years, and
is well-known for his stencil
work in this area. He is
currently active in produc-
ing antique floor covering,
having discovered a method
of preventing the old-
fashioned linoleum from
cracking when rolled up.
His floor material is made
from canvas which he soaks
in linseed oil, then paints.
Mr. Fortney is a native of
York County, and a
graduate of the Philadelphia
University of Fine Arts. He
taught art for eight years at
the Marcus Hook Element-
ary school. He works now as
a bartender at the Railroad
House.
Mr. Weller will stock
antiques, collectibles, furn-
iture, and quilts in the shop.
He previously had a shop at
the Black Angus in Akron.
Mr. Weller, who is from
southern Lancaster County,
is a graduate of Washington
University with degrees in
anthropology and sociology.
He was a juvenile parole
officer in Virginia for 15
years, and was later
employed as a court services
director.
