Hows Business In Town?
With just 10 shopping days left until Christmas,
the tempo of business is quickening.
And the immediate question seems to be, "How's
business?"
Spot checks at some of the larger stores in Frank
lin this week indicate that spot checks indicate very
little, if anv, trends at the present time.
Confused?
Well, these findings might clear the air somewhat,
Some merchants say Christmas business is off from
last year's: Some say its about the same: others think
it's some better: one merchant savs cash sales are1
down and lay-aways are high ; another says lay- !
aways are down and cash sales are up.
(See what we mean about the effectiveness of spot
checks?)
At any rate, shoppers are beginning to turn out in
larger numbers. It is yet to be determined if they
will set any new buying records.
Since last Christmas, one new department store has
opened in Franklin.
Pointing to this new competitor for the consumer
dollar, one merchant summed up his Christmas busi
ness thusly:
"Considering the new store, if we are able to main
tain last year's level we can't complain at ^11 . . . and i
it looks like we'll do it."
