CLOSED WEDNESDAY
-
AFTERNOONS
' i . .
Starting Next Wednesday,
January 29th
THE UNDERSIGNED FRANKLIN MERCHANTS WILL CLOSE THEIR STORES
Each Wednesday at 12:30 p- m
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
We have decided, to close Wednesday afternoons for two
reasons :
1. The grocery stores here already are closing. We believe
that most persons come to town to shop on a day when they can
buy their groceries at the same time they purchase other goods.
We feel that our closing the same afternoon, therefore, would
work a hardship on nobody.
2. Most other lines of business close at noon Saturday, thus
giving their employes a half-day off each week. Of course we
cannot close Saturdays ? that would inconvenience the public.
But we can give our employes a half-holiday, like other workers,
by closing Wednesdays at noon.
