VOLUME XLIL-NO. 34. AN EARLY CLOS ING MOVEMENT. Stores Will Close During Summer Months at 6 P. M. WILL BL A BOON TO THE CLERKS. Would Like Practice to Continue All The Year. DAY FOR THOSE IN STORES VERY LONG. Most of the Employes Work From? o'clock In the Morning Lntil 8 o'clock In the Evening. During the .summer season, beginning about June 15, the principal storekeep ers of the city will close up their busi ness places at 6 o’clock in the evening. This practice has been in operation in previous years and has inured to the pleasure of the clerks as well as the pro prieters of the stores. It has been suggested that an ett'i rt should be made to continue the closing of the stores all the year through. It is thought that buyers, if they know that business places will suspend operations after 0 o’clock p. in., will be on hand to make their purchases throughout the day. As it now is the day is made unusual ly long for the clerks and some of them, it is alleged, have made objections. Many of them are supposed to report at 7 o’clock in the morning and they are kept at work until 8 o'clock in to** even ing, and t.,is makes the working day too long, and shuts off much of the pleasure which otherwise might be had.
