Nearly every store in the city will ■start one week from tomorrow closing on Thursday afternoons during the re mainder of the Summer. The custom has been adhered to for a number of years but there was some indication this year due to opposition on the part of the members of the Merchants’ Association. Final -decision was made several days ago to close Thursday of this week but it was later decided that owing to the fact that it would be impossible to get word to the people in the county this week, it would not he started until next week. ' It is contended by persons pushing the movement that business was not so heavy during summer afternoons as to warrant keeping the clerks in the stores every day. It is further intimated by the same people that it is inhuman to keep i tlie clerks at work when they could get out for an outing. Chief among the stores opposing the movement was Parks-Belk which has an nounced that it will remain open each afternoon. The contention of this store is that it finds it more effective to give a holiday of a week’s duration to each J clerk rather than spread it out during i the entire summer. “Our Gang” Gleanings. Every one has some sort of a secret passion and that of Fatty Joe Cobb, the rotund member of “Our Gang” in j their latest Roach rathe-comedy, “It's a Bear." showing today at the Concord Theatre, is to be able to roll a cigarette I with one hand. It's a great stunt aud lie finally accomplishes it in the fun- j Him. but the results are terrible for Joe.
