We had a Jack too who inherited the business (a classic New York candy store) from his dad.Kadinski's was the name and they had a candy case and fountain. He would mix egg creams, lime rickeys,even cokes along with the more expensive malteds and ice cream sodas and remind us that he wasn't running a library.
