Bio
JOHN STEPHEN PACAL. John Stephen Pacal, a worthy native son and representative business man of Weston, has here successfully conducted a drug store for the past five years, being associated with his brother, Ferdinand Pacal, in this connection. His birth occurred on the 26th of December, 1888, his parents being John and Josephine (Horkey) Pacal, of whom more extended mention is made on another page of this work in connection-with the sketch of Ferdinand Pacal, brother of our subject. John Stephen Pacal acquired his education in the public schools of his native town, completing the high-school course by graduation with the class of 1902. He then followed the profession of teaching for three terms in District No. 76, Chapman precinct, and subsequently entered railway employ as timekeeper, in which capacity he continued for two and one-half years. In the fall of 1908 he entered the Creighton College of Pharmacy at Omaha and following his graduation therefrom in 1909 worked for Frank A. Johnson, of Valparaiso, Nebraska, until 1910. On the 7th of February of that year, in association with his brother Ferdinand, he purchased the drug establishment of Dr. J. W. Gorder and has conducted the same continuously and successfully since, owning a half interest therein. The brothers carry a complete line of drugs and druggists' sundries and are accorded an extensive and gratifying patronage in recognition of their reliable, enterprising and progressive business methods. Mr. Pacal was formerly a progressive republican in politics but now casts an independent ballot, supporting men and measures rather than party. Fraternally he is identified with the Knights of Pythias, belonging to St. George Lodge No. 95 at Weston. He is widely and favorably known throughout his home community and enjoys an enviable reputation as a substantial business man and esteemed citizen.
