We are anxious to CO-OPERATE with our clerks by shorten

an opportunity to have a little time off.
It is difficult to work late, go to bed late and then arise in

eliminate this handicap.

observing the Saturday night closing hour; of 7 o’clock.
We believe the public will co-operate with us in co-operating

ence to anyone, and offering a great advantage to store em
ployees.
