During the 1930s, Don and Marguerite (Oars) McDonald owned the "Mac's Lunch" diner in Iroquois.
George McDonald and Mary McDonald (later Roos) also worked in the restaurant.
Marian Kay describes it as a wooden build on the main street of Iroquois. Inside, there was a juke box,
a row of tables with high backed seats. There was a bar with stools, and the gas ranges for cooking
were in plain sight at the front, with a kitchen area in the back.
When business was slow, they would fry some onions and turn the fan on to blow the aroma out onto the street.
The restaurant operated until some time around 1939 or so. It closed after the shop next door (a dress shop)
went on fire and the restaurant was badly damaged from the water used to extinguish the fire.

The other 3 people are unidentified.
